DOUBT TARIFF CHANGES.
Eastern Lawmakers Say There Will Be
No Revision.

New York. Nov. 2S.-"There will be
no tariff revision before the next presi-
Dental election" says Washington
dispatch to the Herald. There will be
no extra session of congress-, The lead
ers of the republican party have con-
ceded to the president legislation to
better regulate trusts for the purpose
of evading a reopening of the tariff
question in the time of the country's
greatest prosperity.
Almost every member Of congress
who has seen the president this week
has attempted to impress upon him the
necessity of leaving the tariff alone for
the present. He has listened to their
views with interest and attention, and,
following what he considers a party
mandate, will not go beyond a recon-
mendation for q tariff commission in
his message.
HE has found the entire east as rep
resented by United States senators OPP
posed to revision. These senators have
either. declared themselves to the presi-
dent in person or their views are al
ready known to him: Hale of Maine.
Frye of Maine. Lodge of Massachusetts,
Gallinger of New Hampshire, Proctor
of Vermont, Platt of Connecticut, Platt
and Depew of New York, Kean and
Dryden of New Jersey, Quay and Pen
rose of Pennsylvania, Hanna and For
aker of Ohio, Scott and Eilsins of West
Virginia, Hansbrough of North Dakota,
Allison and Dolliver of Iowa, Burrows
and Alger of Michigan, Fairbanks and
Beveridge Of Indiana.
'tOf these men five are of the senate
committee of finance, before which any
tariff bill must go. They constitute
majority of the republican members of
that committee. In addition to this the
president finds the leaders of the house
opposed to revision. Speaker Hender-
son, Representatives Payne, Dalzell,
Littlefield and Long have already ex-
pressed their views. Three OF these
men are important members of the
ways and means committee.
Senator Platt, of New York, is the
latest member of the upper house to
voice this determination of the domi-
mating element in the party to legis-
late on the question of trusts, but to
oppose with vigor any readjustment of
the tariff. Said Senator Platt:
"I am in favor of bill amending
the trust ana IlOHopoiy law. Inc NeW
York delegation, which is somewhat
reduced in numbers, will stand firmly
behind President Roosevelt in this mat
ter. We look for some kind of legisla-
tion at this session of congress. But
we are opposed to any revision of the
tariff 1t would be suicidal for the par
ty to touch the tariff when the country
is enjoying such prosperity. I think
when the sentiment of the country, as
represented by the members of con-
gress collectively, is ascertained. it will
be found to show a resolute determina-
ton to let the tariff stand as it is"

WILL LIVE AMONG THE POOR.
]. G. p. Stokes, Son of Wealthy Fam
iIy, Devotes Life to Charity.


New York, Nov. 2S.-J. G. Phelps
Stokes, brother of the Rev. Anson
Phelps Stokes, son of one of the wealth.
lest families in New York, and a mil
lionaire in his own right, has become
a resident worker in the university set
tlement at Eldridge and Rivington
streets and devotes all his time to the
interests of manual workers.
Such work is by no means new to Mr..
Stokes, aitho he has not heretofore been
able to arrange his affairs so as to live
among the people with whose lives he
has identified his own. He has for
many years been an earnest worker for
the betterInent of the conditions of the
poor and few have accomplished more
real good
The work to which he now applies
himself is of the most practical char
acter. He is not one of the type of re-
formers who go among the laboring
classes to elevate" them. His inter-
ests are with labor and the cause of the
working people, and he has taken up
what he regards as his share of the
burden of working out their develop
ment.
The work of the university settlement
of which Mr.. Stokes is trustee as we'll
as resident is in charge of Robert
Hunter Among his assistants are sew
eral young men of wide practical exper-
ience in settlement work, and Mr..
Stokes shares with them the daily work
of the institution.

Lose no Time Getting Out of That Lo-
cality-Bank Will Pay so Per Cent.
Bedford, Nov. 2S.-The Sharpsburg
bank case has been settled and Banker
christensen and his brothers in law,
DR.. Glenn, of Hopkins, Mo-. who have
been in Jail here since their arrest,
were turned out. They lost no time
in placing the state line between them
and an incensed public.
The case against Attorney Martin,
of Maryville, Mo-, was also dismissed
after he had disgorged the bank funds
and securities in his possession.
AS soon as Christensen and Glenn
breathed the free air. a carriage swiftly
took them towards the Missouri line.
and they did not leave their future ad-
dress with anyone here.
There is in sight enough TO pay so
cents on the dollar of the claims against
the bank. Christensen claimed to have
$4,000 when he started in the banking
business at Sharpsburg little over {,
year ago, and the deposits amounted
to s26,000 He turned over about s13,
00o leaving a balance TO his account
of S2S,000.
Excitement yet runs high and it is
perhaps well that the host of creditors
were not present when they left the Jail.
There was one present but the lawyers
when the final settlement was reached.

BELIEVES HINsHAW INNOCENT
indiana Secretary of State Talks o
New Evidence in Case.

Indiana Secretary of State Talks of
New Evidence in Case.
Indianapolis, Nov. 2S.-Union B.
Hunt, secretary Of state, is firmly con-
WINGED of the innocence of Rev. Will
lam e. Hinshaw, now serving time in
the Michigan City prison, charged with
wife murder. Mr.. Hunts statement
was made anent the claim of James O.
Parker that he has evidence which will
clear Hinshaw.
II was with Mr.. Parker in good
many of his Investigations" Mr.. Hunt
said. There is no question in my mind
that Hinshaw is guiitless of the crime
for which he is serving a life sentence.
/ read all the testimony in the trial.
/ read the lawyers briefs, and I read
the papers in the case before the su-
prerne court, and there is not evidence
enough there to convict any one. The
evidence against Baney and Whitney
is stronger than that against Hinshaw,
II the public demand that some one be
punished for the crime had not influ-
enced the case, there is evidence
enough to hang Noah Baney. There is
no doubt in the world that Baney and
his companions committer the robbery
and murder"
do you think the search for addi-
tional evidence will be kept up?" Mr..
Hunt was asked.
The friends of Hinshaw will never
stop until his name is cleared" he re-
piled.
James o. Parker says he has discov-
cred additional evidence, but is not
ready to make it public.

prominent citizens of Charleston, S. c.,
who objected to the appointment of a
negro to federal office, declared that
he would show no race discrimination
and that the negro who shows ability
and good character shall be the equal
of any white man showing the same
virtues. He declares he will not dis
criminate against any man solely on
account of his color, and says that the

warding of virtue wherever found.

back to st. Louis The passenger list
of the Celtic bears no person with the
name of Charles F. Kelley"

mediate points, asking the authorities

ly's friends that he will try to evade ar
est and, af .er reaching st, Louis, give
bonds After today it win be too late
for him to give any testimony before

cause of the statue of limitations. This

aminations i'm English for those who

aminations in English for those who
seek college degrees. 1t seems strange
that this should be a matter of con-
sideration among college men, but frc
one who attended the conference n
is learned that the college presidents
feel there has been too much neglect
OF the English language among the
colleges and that too many men hold
ing college diplomas are unable to
speak or write the English language
with reasonable accuracy. They say
that the colleges receive more criticism
from this one thing than from any
other and that the only way to effect
a remedy is to insist on more study
OF the English languages in the colleges
and more rigid examinations. Of
course the convention of college presi-
dents had no authority but their rec
concentrations will have some real
weight

Havana, Nov. 2s.-If the Cuban reci-
