New York, Oct g. When the Coz
lumbia eleven came out for practice
on South field yesterday only one man
who had taken part in the game
against Princeton was absent from the
lineup. Quarterback Erb felt the eff

Weekes were lame. The latter strain

and only took part in Saturdays game
lat great risk of serious injury. He is
not yet in shape, and did little more
than catch a few punts yesterday. The
other members Of the team were all in
good condition and as lively as though
no game had taken place.

The Ideals of Cecil Rhodes

Each succ essive relation of the char
ac.er and aims Of Cecil Rhod IS seems
to MAKE the con nventio1al notion of him
more remote. If the consolidation of
the De Beers syndicate and the Jane
son raid had no. been followed by the
educational clauses of the will and by
documents published in the news

sinister guess But the collection of
th1ngh:s which he roughly SIX ,tched
olt fJr Mr. Stead in 1890, and which the
latter has wisely left tine 1ited. is far
more truly political testament than
the will The conclusion is that Mr.
Rhodes was l.ss British than Anglo
Saxon. He did really think i'll CONT
nents, as his fllsome admirers said
but he did more He thought in races
more particularly expressed in terms OF
the Anglo-Saxon as universal trustee
and he called upon his brethren on this
side of the water to be up and doing

equal in va1ue and quantity to those
imported, were used III the manufacture
of the exported articles If the shoe
manufacturer, then, had imported skins
of the same kind that he was sending
out in his finished product, he could
get his rebate. But here arises the
question upon which the whole thing
depends Could the manufacturer use
his imported skins in the manufacture
of shoes for the home market, and
domestic skins, just like them, in his
export trade, and still get the drawback
If so, it would approximate an export
bounty. If not, it would differ little, if |
any, from the present requirement of
Identification.
But it may be asked, Why should a
manufacturer care to Use imported
skins just like them in his export trade?
This illustration is hypothetical. In
case rebate could be secured from the
Custom-house on shoes made of skins
| just like those which might be imported,
the shoe manu- facturer would be
du1lard who did not open an importing
account at the Custom-house, even if he
in the domestic manufacture, or pass
them, through the agencies of trade,
into other hands. Between absolute
Identification on the one hand, and the
payment Of an export bon11s on the
other, on goods which may or may not
have been imported but which resem-
Bile imported goods, there is a region OF
great vagueness. The pamphlet given
lout in ex planation of the lowering bill,
, said to have been drawn Up by lawyer
thoroughly conversant With customs
/: regulations, discloses. this uncertainty.
The idea conveyed throughout is that
the manufacturer would be required,
as under the present law and regula-
tions, to identity quantity Of materials
in the exported articles, and to show
that the value of the materials in the
exported articles was at least equal to
the value of the imported materials on
which dra vback is claimed" 1t is
hard to see how identifying quantity
of materials is going to be much easier
than the individual Identification under
the present law. The whole is equal
TO the sum of its parts
The Lowering bill contains other
drawback features, particularly one re-
lating to articles consumed in the cons
truction of vessels built for foreign &C.
count, but it sessential and significant
feature is the proposed superseding OF
the identification requirement 1t is with
in the range of possibility that Congress
would like TO provide an export bounty
fit could be done indirectly through the
machinery of customs administration.
SO as not to b. known as such. The
ex port trade is growing in importance !;
between in and high protective tariff
at home there is relation of antagon-
ism at many points This might be
overcome by little subsidy, indirectly
applied, to the exporting manufacturers
In any event, if the present drawback
laws can be iberalized without opening
the way to such a bonus, the Ways and
Means Committee would heartily favor
doing so they will, before doing any
thing else, call in customs experts to
see what substitutes for Identification
may safely be employed.

The Proposed Liberalizing
Of Rebate Provisions
Much Support for Mr.. Lovering's Measure
Anticipated Difficulties in It's Opera
ton.

When representative of various man
ufacturing industries which are COM
petirg for the export trade appeared
before the Ways and Means Committee
at Washington few days ago in ad-
vocacy Of Mr. Lovering's bill 1ibaraliz-
ing the drawback provisions of the
existing Tariff Law, Mr.. Payne, Chair
man of the Committee, suggested with
considerable emphasis that the witness
es need not tell of the benefits which
such a change would bring about, but
should rather confne themselves to
showing how it could be done without
opening the way to frauds on the reve-
nue, or the establishment of what would
in effect be an export bounty system.
This suggestion summariz IS the discus
sion which Mr. Lovering's proposal has
occasioned. Everyto ly can see how
it would help Our export trade to give
manufacturers the benefit of the full
drawback on such articles as they had
as basis of manufacture.
Our present law is inadequate because
it compels the Identification of the ex-
porting material; Mr.. Lowering propo-
ses to do away with identification, rely
ing upon other evidences of the genuine
ness of importations alleged to have
been made for use in articles which 90
into the export trade.
The Ways and Means Committee
has, apparently, not yet decided whether
to take up this bill formally or not;
most of its members profess themselves
decidedly in favor of it, and Mr. Russell
Of Connecticut, stanch protectionist is
quoted as saying that he would like to

rg bill goes, The proposal in itself,
md all out.of Congress. is another evi-
lence of the restivencss of such of our
manufacturers as aspire to the export
rade under the limitations entailed by |
he duties upon the articles they have |
o buy. These limitations increase in
severity with the honesty of the appli-
amt for the rebate; the oaths of manu-
acturers and their foremen have a |
