ness Of the senate until that date, aud
it will have preference over all other
questions iii the matter of debate each
day after 3 o'clock Many democratic
senators are opposed to the bill but the
best information obtainable is that there
will be no general debate on the Philip
pine question as they consider the pas
sage of tile bill a foregone conclusion.
They will devote their efforts 10 secair

visions which they regard as especially

Cuyahoga County The investigation
will extend only to the alleged forger-
les ofstl1e Carnegie notes, and a report
from the jury is expected no later than
Tuesday.
# is the opinion .of some Of the Lead
ing attorneys Of Cleveland that a
charge Of forgery cannot be made to
hold in connection with these notes.
They declare that it is not an act Of
forgery for one person to write the
name of another, but that the offense
lies in the attempt to negotiate such a
signature for a specific value This,
they say, there IS SO far no evidence
that Mrs. Chadwick has done. She has
not sold or attempted to sell the notes
for cash She has not said that she
would be glad to obtain money iii ex-
change for them.
She has obtained from various
sources on Tile statement of Ira Rcy-
nolds that she had the best Of his
knowledge and belief held securities Of
a certain value and whether he proves
correct or otherwise in his estimate of
the value OF the notes, there can be no
doubt that Mr. Reynolds believed what
lie said. There has been, according 10
the attorneys no evidence so far elic-
tied showing that Mrs: Chadwick OBJ
tanned money on these notes ii any
other manner than through the attes-
tation Of Ira Reynolds that he had seen

Protection Raised Waoes.

The chamber Of commerce of Es-
sen, Germany, has just published a
memorial on the influence Of pro
tective tariff ON wages and on the
conditions Of the working classes.
Referring to the district Of Essen
the chamber states the fact that the
average wage in 1873 was 70 cents
a day. In 1879 a system truly pro-
tectionist was inaugurated. From
that time on wages went from 8s
cents in 1882 to So cents in 1888, 81
cents in ISQ2, and 90 cents in 1906,
and SII4 in 1000. The conclusion
drawn by the chamber experts from
the facts cited is that wages adj
vanced with the Result Of tie tariff.
