A PIECEMEAL TARIFF
AUSTRALIA ADOPTS A PLAN THAI
IS UNIQUE
While the Bill Is Being Considered
In Parliament, as Fast as u Sec
tiOn Is Adopted or Amended
1t Will Go Into Effect.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE state de-
partment has been advised of the change
in the plans of the australian govern
ment with regard to the new tariff for
the confederation. 1t was the original
programme to let the tariff go into eff
feet as drawn up, and then to refund
or collect for any alterations which
might be made before the tariff bill pass
ed in the parliament.
United States Consul General Bray,
writing from Me-pourne, says he has
been informed by Hon. G. C. Kingston,
minister of Australian customs, that.
should the tariff now before the Austria
Ian parliament fail to pass in its pres
ent form, an increase or decrease in du-
ties as now levied win not be charged
or refunded to the importer. Amend
ments made in the tariff during it's pass
age will take effect Immediately. When
a change in the original bill is voted
or passed by the house Of representa-
tives, the government at once notifies
the collector of customs to charge duty
from that date according to such amend
ment.
Mr.. Bray states that lie parliament
is now debating the bill, and it was an
ticipated that two months would elapse
before its final passage.

jury box. He would not listen to the
judges instructions. He was later lock-
ed up in the jury room with the other
jurors, but refused to take part in the
deliberations in the jury room until after
midnight.

Warmly Received.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Jan. n-This
evening 1900 people crowded Sanders
theater to hear Mr.. Bryan address the
students of Harvard university. When
ne rose to speak he was greeted with en-
thusiasm and prolonged applause.
The subject of his address was "a
Conquering Nation and he dealt almost
entirely with party issues. He opened
his remarks by saying that he expected
to spend his life in the study of labor
problems. After a short talk on the
progress Of the United States he dwelt
for an hour and a half on the evils of
unequal taxation, the trusts and inn
perialiSm and on free silver. The
speech was an informal one, interspersed
with many stories. The audience was

perialism caused the greatest enthusi-
asm

TO SUE FOR MILLIONS

TO BE DEFENDANTS IN AN
OLD ACTION
GATTLEMEN ASK A REFUND


CHICAGO, Jan. 11.-As a result Of the
testimony given before the interstate
commerce commission at Chicago, suits
aggregating between s., 100000 and $1,000
COO probably will be brought against
the railroad companies operating lines
between here and the Missouri river, to
recover charges illegally made for the
shipping of cattle.
A movement is on foot to have the
Cattle Growers and Shippers associa-
tions combine, with the view of bring
ing test cases against the railroads. The
suits which are contemplated will be for
the recovery of the difference between
the tariff rates and the rates paid on
packing house products since June 30,
1901, cattle being entitled to equal rates
with packing house products. The cat
tlemen base their hope of recovery upon
the rulings Of the supreme court. to
the effect that the same rate must be
made for the transportation of cattle
that is made for dressed beef and the
products made from cattle.

SECRETARY OF WAR is OPPOSED
TO COMMERCIAL RECIPROCITY
WITH PHILIPPINES
PRESENT POLICY ENDANGERED
Nations Now in Control of Chinese
Provinces Must Be Afforded the
Same Privileges for Trade
as the United States
CoNFERRING ON sCHLEY CASE

WASHINGTON, Jan. n.-Thereiis au-
thority for the statement that Secretary
Root is strongly opposed to commercial
reciprocity between the United States
and the Philippines on the general ground
that any such arrangement would be de-
structive of the "open-door' policy of
this government in the East.
q 1t is argued that the United States only
secured the open door in China after pa
tient and assiduous diplomatic negotia-
tions with other foreign governments s
concerned, and that to now deny to other
governments the same trade facilities
with the Philippines enjoyed by the
United States would result in closing the
principal markets in China to the United
States for trade.
Speaking on this subject today, a cabi-
net officer said that the only way the
United States could expect to be treated
the same as Russia, France, Germany
and Great Britain in the Chinese prov
inces now in the virtual possession of
these governments would be by granting
the countries named equal promises and
facilities with the United States for trade
with the Philippines.
The above statements represent the po-
sition of Secretary Root on the general
question Of trade relations with the Phil
ippines, and the conclusion is that Presi-
dent Roosevelt holds similar views.

was no reason why they, any more
than Porto Rico should have tariff bur-
dens. He advocated readjustment of suf-
frage qualifications. knowledge of Span
ish, he said, ought not to be a test, while
the amount of the property qualifica-
tion should be materially reduced.

Special to The Globe.

LONDON, Jan. 11.-Much more hard
fighting may be expected in South Africa
before the British can withdraw single
battalion. An ever-Iengthening compaign
is predicted IN today's edition of the
Naval and Military Gazette The claim
made by the government that Lord Kitch-
ener needs no reinforeements is disputed
and condemned. and the war office is
urged to dispatch steady stream of
troops to the front until peace is achiey-
ed.
The Gazette asserts that it has informa-
ton of the gathering of a large number
of Europeans in The north and north
eastern sections Of the TransvaaI fully
equipped, and with a reserve of $4,000
rifles in anticipation of the leadership Of
Botha and Dewet, when these generals
have been driven fTem their present fields

1t is argued by the writer of the ar
ticle that this means the Iengthening OF
the campaign beyond the horizon of in

government can avoid a repetition of it's
past mistakes in the way of misunder-
standing the enemy only by constantly

FROM THE GLOBE BUREAU,
Washington, d, G.

WASHINGTON, Jan. lit has recent
ly developed that both President Roose-
Welt and Attorney General Knox are In
favor Of legislation which will place the
railroads Of this country under govern
mental control.
Attorney General Knox, who is sup
posed to be the friend, advocate and de-
fender Of trusts and combines talks
openly on the subject. He believes that
unless there is some legislative action in
this line the railroads will continue to
combine and make financial deals which
will prove disastrous to the business and
financial interests oE the country. Presi-
dent Roosevelt agrees with Mr.. Knox.
1t was because Of this firmly fixed con-
viction that Mr.. Roosevelt, In his mes
sage to congress, made the strong recon-
mendation that the powers of the inter
state commerce cogs1naissionsbe enlarged.
The president believes that the inter-
state commerce law should be changed
so that the commission will be answer
able to the president direct for its acts.

LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE British war Of

condition of affairs. It's call for volun-
teers to relieve their regiments at the

response, and has served to intensity the
widespread indignation existing among
all the volunteer regiments. Volunteers
answering the call would only receive a
shilling day, while the yeomany, in
which many volunteers already have en-

only solution for the deadlock appears
to be for the war office to introduce con-

satisfaction to me. / can assure you q
miraI Prince Henry, to whom l shall per-

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE steel
schooner yacht in course of construction

many Is being pushed rapidly From pres
ent progress the yacht should be ready
for launching about Feb. 26.
During the coming week Wallace
Downey, president Of the Townsend and
Downey ShipbuiIding company, will visit
Washington to arrange for date for the
launching to meet the convenience of
Miss Roosevelt, who will christen the
new yacht.
His majesty thought of sending Crown
Prince Frederick William to represent
him at the launching as a greater honor,
but changed his plan, thinking that
Prince Henry, with his better knowledge
and more ample experience of the
world, would be likely to make better
impression. The length Of Prince
Henry's stay in the United States is un-
determined, and will depend in part upon
the wishes Of President Roosevelt, and
the programme for his entertainment.
Prince Henry's visit to America Is re-
garded by the court as another evidence
of the emperor's desire to win the good
will Of the American people and govern
ment for Germany.
