LEWIS ASKS TARIFF REFORM.

Must Reduce TariG Upon Goods OF
Nations Whose Trade We Seek,
Said Georgian.
Washington, March 19.-Mr. Lewis Of
Georgia addressed the House to-day,
arguing for the necessity of radical re-
form of the tariff. He predicted that
the tariff question would be the princi-
pal issue of the near future, as the
American people would rise against
such tariff determinations as enable
great trusts to tax the American con-
sumner and sell their products abroad
at lower rates than they are sold at
home. He contended that the United
States has reached the stage when, in
order to further extend our markets,
there must be liberal reduction in tar
IFS upon goods from other nations
whose trade we seek. He said he did
not argue for free trade, but for a
Democratic policy of a revenue tariff
so adjusted as to work no harm to such
interests as really need incidental pro-
lection, but he protested against in
ordinate protection of tariff giants.
which have fattened and grown into
great trusts under the operations of
Dingley rates.

THE WALLER CoURTMARTIAL.
War Department Not Advised of
Lack of Jurisdiction.

Washington, March 19.-The War
Department has not been advised that
a claim of lack of jurisdiction has been
presented by counsel for Maj. Waller
and Lieut.. Day of the marine corps
at the court-martial which is trying
these two officers at Manila on
charges of executing natives. A gen.
eral order, issued by direction of the
President, empowered Gen. Chaffee to
utilize the marines whenever he DEEM
ed their cooperation with the army
desirable. Whether or not Maj. Waller
and his detachment had been relieved
of their duty with the army before
the preference of the charges is a
question which neither War or Navy
Department can determine for lack
of Information on the subject. If 1t
be found, however, that the marines
had been detached from their duty
with the army before the charges
were brought forward, the claim that
Gen. Chaffee lacks the necessary juris-
dic;ion in the case will probably be
sustained here.

The members of the Princes party

secretary COrteIyOu Makes the AM
nouncement at the White House.
Washington, D. c., March 19.--Presi-
dent Roosevelt has decided to reap
point j. H. Deveaux collector at the
port of Savannah. The announcement
was officially. made at the White House
to-day by Secretary Cortelyou. The
determination of the President to re-
appoint Deveaux causes no surprise
to those who are familiar with the
situation.
The excellent official record of Col
lector Devaux, Notwithstanding his
color. was the strongest factor in his
favor; besides the President felt that
under the circumstances he could not
ignore the united support of the Re
publican organization in Georgia.
When Deveaux was here several weeks
ago the President told him to go back
to Savannah and attend to his BUSH
ness, giving him assurances that he
would be reappointed.

Two Speeches Made for the Defense
and One for the State.
Elizabeth City. N. c., March 10
The court house was crowded today
during the arguments in the Cropsey
murder trial Many women were pres
ent. Three lawyers were heard to-day
The closing speeches will be made to-
morrow by Solicitor Ward for the state
and E. F. Aydlett for the defense. The
case will probably go to the jury on
Friday.
w. j. Leary concluded his speech be-
gun yesterday in behalf of the defense
He asserted that Nellie Cropsey COM
mitted suicide. Suicide, he said, had
been suggested and discussed the night
before and Nellie took part in it.
j. Haywood Sawyer followed for the
state. He reviewed the evidence tend
ing to show that the girl had not
drowned herself and asserted her death
was due to a blow.
w. NJ. Bond of Edenton followed Mr..
Sawyer. He spoke for the defense
Among other things he said
There are only two questions in the
case. Was the girl killed? If so, who
killed her? Is the evidence sufficient
to, convict the prisoner? 1 say that it
is not. There was nothing certain or
positive about what the expert doctors
said. DIR. Fearing went to work on
the case with a distorted judgment.
He believed that Wilcox had done the
girl whatever wrong had been done.
This is shown by the fact that he left
the body after the first examination
without having found a single mark of
violence. DR.. Wood said that the alb
sence of any one of the symptoms of
drowning could not be taken as posi-
tive evidence. DIR. Lumsden swore that
he could not give expert testimony in
a case where a person had been dead
thirty-seven days and the body buried
in the water. There is nothing positive
in the evidence. 1t is all circumstan-

Some parties without authority have
been going around the country pretend
ing to be government officials and exam
lining into the rural free delivery mail
boxes. They have been seen in different
parts of the valley plying their presumed
official authority to the annoyance of the
farmers. No questions have been asked
by any of them, but they drive along the
roadways and in coming to mail box
stop and open it with great officiousness.
After examining the inside they drive
on to the next box. Inquiry at the post
office here results in confirming the
opinion that the "examiners' are
frauds, and rural residents should look
out for them.

Northern Pacific railway company to
place automatic gates at the Yakima

doubt. be approx ed by everybody in the

meritorious act if it succeeds in having
gates placed at the dangerous crossing
Another thing the council or CONNER

to have large sign with the legend

conspicuous spot near the station. The
object in doing this is to enable strangers
passing through this place on the trains
to learn the name of the city without
having to ask questions.

They have not been unpacked yet as a

feel like real big "sojers."
The play given by the Senior class was

themselves credit in every way.
