highest significance. He said, speaking OF
the work Of congress next winter:
l do not think there will be any tariff
legislation, at least in the form OF a gen
eral revision Of the tariff. OF course / am
not in position to speak authoritatively for
the president, but l feel that / am repre-
senting his ideas when l say it. There are
however, some things we ought TO do which
will amount to a partial revision of the
tar1n. There are at present pending before
the senate some ten commercial treaties
These are all Of reciprocity character and
II they are ratified will amount to a change
in the tariff with the countries with which
they are made. 1t seems to me as IL it would
be wise to ratify at least some OF them.
The foregoing words are taken to mean
that the president, who always talks freely
with Senator Cullom, is In favor of rati
stirring up the republican party by an
effort at general tariff revision. Senator
Cullom, it will be noticed, says nothing
regarding the Babcock bill, which does
not come within the meaning Of his words
"a general revision of the tariff As
suming that what Senator Cullom says re-
fleets the views of the president, it may
be accepted as true that the latter is
thinking strongly Of urging the ratifica-
tion of the reciprocity treaties In his mes
sage to congress.
1t ought not to be forgotten that the
principal reciprocity treaties were de-
feated in the fifty-sixth congress by SEN
ators who represented special local in
terests instead of the entire country. The
French treaty ran counter to certain cot
ton manufacturers Of New England and
was on that account opposed bitterly by
the New England senators, led on by
Lodge and Aldrieh. The jamaican treaty
was opposed by the California fruit grow
ers, who thought they saw in 1t a men
ace to their business success, and SO the
California senators would not agree to It,

Pittsburg, Aug. 8.-The Farm" mill of
the Lindsay & McCutcheon company in
Allegheny was started this morning with
nonunion men. Early yesterday after

thing was placed in readiness for resum-

from the striking mill men, for almost to

mills. They were away with their work
when the Farm mill was started.
Guards patrolled every entrance to the
mill and it was next to impossible for a
stranger to gain admission to the mills
while the preparations for starting were
being made. The mill that was put into
operation is a finishing mill and manu-
factures half-inch steel hoops. 1t is one

Courageous inventor of the DirigibIe Balloon
Declares That He Will PerSevcre in Ills
Mid-Air EXPERIMENTS.

Paris, Aug. S.-M. Santos-Dumont, the
aeronaut, this morning again attempted
10 circle the Eiffel tower. He succeeded
in rounding the tower with dificulty. The
balloon was then unable to make headway
against strong winds, and fell near a
house in the vicinity remaining suspended
for some time. NJ. Santos-Dumont was
not injured.
Santos-D Dumont started from the Pare
de St. Cloud at 6:10 a. N. amid hearty
cheers His initial movements were
promising, as the balloon turned around

four seconds after starting and re-headed
for st, Cloud. Just over the avenue
Henri Marcen. however. a strong gust
of wind struck the aerostat which veered
violently TO one side, almost simultan-
eousIy bounding backwards a distance of
fifty yards. The hydrogen gas was forced
from the front to the back part of the
balloon. creating a sudden expansion
which caused the machine to dip. Her
screw touched the steel cords and broke
them. NJ. Santos Dumont Immediately
stopped the motor and the balloon began
to descend
Unfortunately the cover Of the aerostat
struck the corner of a six-story building.
A report like the shot of a cannon fol-
lowed. The balloon collapsed and fell
rapidly. Luckily the frame caught on the
coping of the building and the balloon
remained suspended. otherwise Santos-Du-
mont would have been killed.
Half Hour of Deadly Peril.
AS it was the aeronaut hung in a most
dangerous position in mid-air for half an
hour. until by a great effort he sue
ceeded in catching the iron bar of a win
dow to which he clung until rescued with
some difficulty by the use OF ropes.
The balloonist escaped without a
scratch, however The explosion Of the
balloon attracted enormous crowds and
the reception of Santos Dumont upon
reaching the street was most enthusiastic,
many ladies clinging to his neck and kiss
ing him repeatedly.
As Santos Dumont superintended the re-

moval of the machine he said he was
quite ready to recommence operations.
NJ. Deutsch, who offered the prize OF
100, 900 francs for the rounding of the
Eiffel tower and the return to the start
ing point within given period of time,
was so affected by the danger that San
tos- -Dumont had passed through that he
told him that he would rather present him
the prize at once than to see him kill
himself with his experiments, but the
balloonist replied that he had rounded
Eiffel tower in such short period of time
that he considered the result too salts
factory to permit the relinquishment OF
his attempts in the future.
Told by Dumont.
NJ. Santos-Dumont gave the following
account of his trip:
This time it is not the fault of the motor,
which worked admirably. 1t was the bal
loon which caused the accident 1 rounded
the Eiffel tower with admirable speed, as 1
had a favorable wind, and was already re-
turning over the Bois de Boulogne when
the wind freshened suddenly and struck
me sideways. Like a ship in a storm the
balloon pitched and rolled now and then
recovering its normal position. Another sud
den veering Of the wind caused the front Of
the balloon to pitch downward and the ropes

They broke.
saw the danger and my only thought was
to descend as quickly as possible. This
was doing successfully, but l was driven
by contrary wind in the direction Of the
Eiffel tower. Again the breeze veered and
threw me against a building. The balloon
burst like a toy gas balloon and the frag
ments fell, completely covering me. The
rest you know. I am unhurt 1 have not a
scratch and will soon recommence. The
motor is uninjured. 1 have worked it for ten
minutes. 1 will now send it to St. Cloud and
set it to work repairing the balloon. 1t is
simply matter of sewing the pieces to-
gether The cause OF the accident was that
the balloon was insuficiently filed I knew
this. The ventilator also worked badly.
NJ. Deutsch, who was present at the
start, said:
I am afraid the experiments will not be
conclusive, as his balloon will always be
at the mercy of the wind, which IS not the
kind of atrship we have dreamed of.

pert witnesses. The state then took
up the rebuttal and the first
witness called was Charles Butter
wick, who was at John Willie's when
Barry drove there with his sister less
than an hour after the murder
Barry had his sister in the sleigh and
asked for Willie, and when he was told
the latter was not at home. he asked wit
ness to take care Of his sister, as she was
crazy, while he Barry went for the
doctor.
He appeared to be very much excited
and his actions were not as cool and de-
liberate as was usual with him, but the
thought did not strike witness that he was
insane and the opinion Of the witness was
that he was not.
Andrew Morken, a cousin Of the mur-
dered man, was called to the stand just
before court adjourned.
