TARIFF STILL IN
Foraker Introduces Amendments
to Porto Rican Govern
ment Bill, /
But the Fifteen Per Cent Tariff
Remains as in the House
Measure.
This in Addition to Internal Rev.
enue Taxation -. Other
Features.

WASHINGTON, MArcn rs. Senator
Foraker has introduced the amendments
to the Porto Rico governmental bill
which were read to the Republican sen.
atorial caucus and some of which were
agreed to by it. The amendments were
Incorporated in a new print Of the bill
and the bill as thus amended introduced
as a new measure.
The first important change is made in
section 3, in which the inhabitants are
described as 'citizens of Porto Rico and
as such entitled to the protection Of the
United States" whereas in the old bill
they were designated as ''citizens of the
United States"
On articles imported by Porto Rico
from foreign countries the duties to be
collected are the same as those collected
at United States ports, except as pro-
vided in the treaty with Spain.
The new section in regard to COM
MERGE between this country and Porto
Rico provides for a Is per cent tariff on
goods to Porto Rico and the same tariff
on goods coming to this country, plus
internal revenue rates.
1t is also provided that whenever the
Legislative assembly Of Porto Rico shall
have enacted and put into operation a
system Of local taxation to meet the ne
cessities of the government Of Porto
Rico by this act established, and shall
by resolution duly passed so notify the
president, he shall make proclamation
thereof. and thereupon all tariff duties
on merchandise and articles going into
Porto Rico from the United States or
coming into the United States from
Porto Rico shall cease, and from and
after such date all such merchandise
and articles shall be entered 1t the sew
eral ports Of entry free Of duty, and in
no event shall any duties be collected
after the first day of March, 1902"
There is also a substitute for section
10 concerning the disposal of the Porto
Rican II 1t provides that 'the
duties and taxes collected in Porto Rico
less the cost Of collecting and the gross
amount of all collections of duties and
taxes in the United States upon articles
VI llcICLaIlulSe COMING from TOTIO TSlCO
shall not be covered into the general
fund of the treasury but shall be held
as a separate fund and placed at the
disposal of the president to be used for
the government and benefit Of Porto
Rico
Instead Of a delegate in congress from
Porto Rico there is to be a resident
commissioner to the United States"
"who shall be entitled to official recog-
milton as such by all departments on
presentation to the department of state
a certificate of election of the govern
ment Of Porto Rico, and who shall be
entitled to a salary, payable monthly
by the United States at the rate of
$1,000 per annum."
The only other change in administra.
tive feature of the bill is one requiring
the approval Of the president Of the
United States in the matter of Porto
Rico telegraph and telephone franchises.

Republican Senators Consider the Porto
Kican Measure Without Result.
WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The Repub-
lican members of the senate spent two
and a half hours in caucus III an effort
to reach an agreement upon the Porto
Rican legislation now pending in the
senate. The caucus was apparently,
however, without material result, the
only accomplishment being a decision
to proceed with the general bill as it
now stands without separating the tariff
feature and to discharge the harmony
committee from further services.
During the sitting there were 20 or
more speeches made. All of them were
of a more amiable tone than the
speeches in the caucus a fortnight ago.
But while good feeling was generally
manifested and all senator's who spoke
expressed themselves as DESTROYS of
reaching IN amicable understanding
there was but little or no disposition to
yield a point which would produce that
result. Indeed the free traders on the
one hand and the tariff men on the
other were quite as obdurate as they had
been at the previous caucus.
Hope for Opposition Aid.
There a number Of senator's who will
oppose the bill sven with the amend
ment recommended. They are, it is
understood, Senators Davis, Beveridge,
Hoar, Wellington, Mason, Simon, Proc
tor and Nelson. 1t is also said that
Senators Kyle, who heretofore has acted
with the Republicans, and McCumber
IN. d. will not vote for the house bill
unamended. but it is believed they will
vote for the amended proposition.
