DUTIES WILL BE SPECIFIC.
AID VaIOrem Duties on Chinese Inn
ports Discarded.

Washington, Aug. 1S.-The new tariff,
which was signed by T. B. Sharretts,
the United States commissioner for
tariff revision in China, and by the
representatives of six other nations,
changes the present, ad valorem tariff
of China to SPECIFIC rates. This is in
accordance with the protocol.
The specific rate agreed upon is
based upon the average value of pro-
ducts imported into China during the
past twenty years. Under the terms of
the protocol this change from ad val
orem to specific rates does not need
the signature of China. The change
will no doubt make some slight diff
ference in the rates of duty, but is
not regarded as a revision of the tar
if to any general extent.
1t is expected that in commercial
treaty the tariff will be changed to a
considerable extent. The commission
ers on the part of the United States
to negotiate this treaty are Minister
Conger, Consul General Goodnow, at
Shanghai, and Mr.. Feely. The treaty
which they negotiate, it is expected,
will be completed within short time.

VOTED THE PLAN DOWN.
No Sanitarium for Disabled Pythinns
to Be Built.

tO ne
San Francisco, Aug. 1S.-At the ses-

of Pythias to-day the proposition to
erect a sanitarium at Hot Springs,
Ark, for sick and disabled knights
was defeated by vote of 96 to 80, and
the report of the Special Investigating
Committee adopted at the last session
was completely disregarded.
1t was the voice of the Supreme
Lodge that 1t has no rights under its
constitution to tax the members of the
order for such purpose. The supreme
representatives, however, expressed
themselves as individually favoring
sanitarium if it could be built with
out taxation.
fore the Supreme Lodge for twelve
was referred to committees until two
years ago, when a special committee
was appointed to make final report
on the matter. 1t came up to-day, and
after prolonged argument, was de-
feated.
The government offered to give 99-
year lease OH five acres of land to the
Pythians for the purpose of building
the sanitarium. 1t was proposed to
erect buildings at a cost of $3.50 900, the
expense to be borne by a per capita
tax of ten cents on each member of

The house party given by Mrs. Re
becca Winn and her daughter, was in
q cottage on the camp meeting grounds
In his sermon Sunday Rev. Mr.. Cary
seemed to resent the proximity of the
house party, and followed by making
some pretty strong remarks about the
ladies' of the party to the extent, it is
said, of attacking their private char
acters.
Several gentlemen of the party went
to him and demanded a retraction in
the pulpit. This he refused
TO make. At the night service Rev.
Mr.. Zimmerman, local preacher, said
that Rev. Mr.. Cary had evidently been
misinformed as what he said was not
true. Mr. Cary Immediately arose and
stated that he had nothing to retract
and that things still worse than he
had said might be said of those in
house party. To-day as ne was wait
ing at small flag station to take his
train, young Winn came up.
Are you Mr.. Cary?" he asked of
the preacher. On receiving an affirma-
tive reply, he said: "You have gross
ly insulted my mother and sister, and
l am going to slap you. Suiting the
action to the word he struck the
preacher four or five times. The
preacher, it is stated, threatened to
deal with Winn in the courts.
