DINGLEYS CONDITION.
Right Lung Affected Making Gallant
Fight for Life.

Washington. Jan 10.-tSpecial).-Th@rc
WAS liutle change iii Representative Ding
ley's condition. today, but. this evening.
1t was announced that If he could hang
on to life two days longer there would be
real grounds for expecting his recovery.
The fact of the case is that Mr.. Dingley
has had a double attack of pneumonia.
AT first his left lung consolidated. That
was in the earlier stage of the disease.
Later resolution of that lung set in and
with the symptom the physicians hoped
that he had passed the danger line. His
cough was ;easy and for several days his
condition was very comfortable.
Quite to the disinay of his physicians
the resolution of the left lung had hardly
ended before the consolidation of THE
right lung began. That lung is now In
volved and the physicians are eXnausting
all their ingenuity to preserve his life till
he shall have sufficient strength to throw
eff the disease.
This fact explains how Mr.. Dingley has
continued for several days extremely iii,
but with little apparent change in his
condition. Most powerful stimulants
like nitro glycerine and dgitalis. have
been used to revive him and to incite the
action of the heart. Oxygen has also
been used rather freely for inhalation.
In spite of his extreme Illness, however
Mr.. Dinsley shows remarkable strength.
He has all along been able to move about
in the bed and at times to help himself
to take things within his reach. He has
stood up so well against the disease that
the physicians have more hope than ever
Of his recovery.

gates will not be finished before that
time, and there is the additional ques-
ton of the acceptance Of the powers OF

The delegates, who desire some tangi-
BILE result accomplished by the confer
ence. recognize that II the members are
contented with simply transmitting
the decisions of their respective gov
ernments, the work of the delegates
will simply be pigeon-holed in the va
rious chancellories Of Europe and
will not be executed. Therefore, the
delegates have resolved to ad-
journ their sittings rs soon Us their
work is completed and to submit
the result to their respective govern
ments with the request that the dele
gates be empowered to sign a definite
document. II is expected. the govern
ments will keep track Of the progress
of the work, and that they will require
about ten days for deliberation of their
final decision, which will bring the
final adjournment in the middle Of
July.

Says No Industry should no Pro-
tccted Beyond Ten Per Cent.

Washington, June 15.-Mr. Henry o.
Havemeyer, president Of the American
Sugar Refining company, was examined
by the Industrial commission to-day Ia
connection with It's investigation Of
trusts. His testimony related almost
wholly to the, sugar industry and he
opened with q vigorous attack upon
the customs tariff which he declared
was the another Of all trusts" bccom-
ing such by providing IAN ordinate
protection to manufactured articles"
This attack was made in q written
statement which. he read. Mr.. Have.
meyer asserted that tariff
Of ten per cent. was as high
as any tariff should be. He con-
tended that sugar is Disseminated
against in the tariff in the interest OF
the Louisiana cane growers, the beet
sugar makers and the sugar growers
of the Hawaiian islands. To these in
terests, he contended, the United States
contributed sa4,0O0,0O0, which was
taken out of the pockets OF
the people. Capital and labor,
he stated, would all adjust themselves
II let alone. The only way to prevent
competition, Mr.. Havemeyer testified,
was to keep prices at minimum-not
necessarily in the interest Of the con-
sumner, but as a matter OF business. He
referred to the trust laws of some OF
the states as premium on dishonesty
and specified the Missouri law. There
were always two classes Of people in q

who wanted to live off them.
