 There ia None

The secretary of war was quoted as having said that no press censorship is maintained in the Philip pines now, and a letter from General Greeley, chief signal officer of the army, was presented by MT Beveridge of Indiana making the statement off Cially that there is no censorship of press dispatches and "the press entire- ly free" It was contended by the op- position that a press censorship did ex- ist in the Philippines and that copies of every news dispatch filed with the cable company was filed with the mili- tary authorities This, it was contend ed, constituted 9 virtual censorship.

STATEM ENT BY STEEL TIE UST.
Great D eIha nd for Would Not
 Advance Prices.

New York, Jan. 29-A preliminary report covering the operations of the United States Steel corporation since it came into existence ten months ago was placed in the hands of the stock holders of the company to-day. If was q forerunner to the more extended resume to be submitted at the annual general meeting on February 17 and was designed to familiarize the share owners with the financial status of the company and the trade situation in the market where it buys and sells. The report signed by both Charles M. Schwab and E,lbert H. Gary, declared present business and future outlook viewed ahead through 1902 to be high ly satisfactory
 Discussing prices the report said they could have been advanced but that it was decided to be better policy to refrain from doing so. The refer- ence to prices follows in part:
 "The demand for products has been so great that prices could easily have been advanced Indeed higher prices have been voluntarily offered bv GUS toners who were anxious for the imme- diate execution of orders but the com panies have firmly maintained the' po- sition of not advancing prices, believing the existing prices were sufficient to yield a fair return on capital and main tain the properties in satisfactory phy- sical condition and that the collateral advantages to be gained in the long run by refusing to advance prices would be of substantial and lasting value not only to the companies but also to the general business interests of the country"
 The report asserted that this policy as to prices had not only a reassuring effect upon the trade but contributed

n Deep Impression.

Berlin. Jan. 29.-Count Von Posadow- eky-Wehner, imperial secretary of state for the interior, in speaking to-day be- fore the tariff commit tee on behalf of the government, said if the members committee forced into the tariff bill the amendments designed to provoke retail ation abroad, the bill would be rejected, because the government could not sup port it.
 Count Won Posadowsky- Wehner was referring to a batch of motions pro- posed by Count Won Kanitz, Herr Won Kardorff, Herr Camp and other agrar- fans, conservatives, Centrists and Ma tional Liberals intended to enable the government to levy discriminating du- ties and shorten the bonded period, as well as require certificates of the origin of imports. The Socialist members of the committee supported the imperial secretary of state for the interior, Herr Stadthagen saying it was incomprehen- sible to him how measures striking trade dead could be introduced Later in the discussion Count Von Posadow sky Wehner said:
 Germany imports raw products in large quantities, and exports manufac- tured articles correSpOndingly. Ger man retaliatory measures would be answered in the same way abroad, and our exports would be the most severely damaged because we absolutely need raw products, whereas foreign coun- tries are able to get their manufac- tured goods elsewhere.
 The announcement of the position of the government by the imperial secre- tary of state has made deep impress sion, his being the foremost language yet used by the government toward the agrarians. Herr Camp withdrew his motion altogether, while Count Won Kanitz and Herr Won Kardorff modified theirs. Herren Gothien and Fischbeck moved amendments embodying the views of Count Von osadowsky- Wen her. vote on the bill was not reach ed

OF WAR TAXES
4 MEASURE TO BE FRAMED AT
 ONCE.
Republican Members of the Ways and Means Committee Decide to Draft Bill Before Proceeding With the Cuban Reciprocity Matter Very Largo Reductions Likely,

Washington, Jan. 29.-The republican mittee held private meeting tonight and decided to frame a bill for the re- duction of war taxes before proceeding further with the subject of Cuban rec iprocity Chairman Payne at once call ed a meeting of the full committee at Il o'clock tomorrow morning, when work of the revenue reduction by the bill will be begun No draft of bill has been prepared by the republican members, but it is pretty fully understood that the majority is prepared to favor a measure effecting very large reductions, amounting practically to repeal of all the war taxes and aggregating about s6S 900 900.
 The restriction of recent hearings to beer and tea led to the belief that re- auctions might be confined to these two articles, but the sentiment of the ma iority now appears to favor much to-day it was the prevailing view that, since Cuba had been the cause for the mourning of the war revenue taxes the burden should be removed from this country before there is consideration of the extent of the relief to be granted to Cuba. The question of what precent- age of reduction in tariff rates could be made for Cuba was not considered at the meeting tonight owing to the de- termination to leave this until after the war revenue reductions have been &C., complished.
