not been placed upon the stand TO tes-
tify against Wilson. 1t was generally
conceded that he injured the states
case against Adams by his failure to
remember some of the most important
matters. .#r
One witness testified on CROSS exam
ination that when Adams and Wilson
came out into the crowd the day Of the
shooting that there were a number Of
men there who had clubs in their
hands. but he could not tell whether
or not they used them on Adams.
However, he saw Adams throw the
stone that knocked Boylan down and
also saw Wilson shoot the young man
while he law prostrate alongside of
the track. The defense in this case
will be as in that against Adams, JUS

ARGUMENTS OF STAND PATTERS.
Against Extra Session of Congress to Revise Tar
if Are Being Fired at the President With
Violence and Force.

Washington, Nov. 21.-A powerful
argument has been raised by the
stand patters" in their efforts to
avoid an extra session of congress and
prevent revision of the tariff sched-
ules.
They have plainly presented to the
president the existing impression
that the free traders" as the revi-
sionists are dubbed, are supplying the
ammunition whereby the president Is
to demand a revision from stand
pat" congress.
Foss. the reciprocity advocate. of
Chicago, has been here. So has Rep
resentative Babcock, who nearly caus-
ed stampede in the house year
ago through his revision talk Gov
ernor CuIpmins. of Iowa, who stands
high up on the roll of revisionists, is
now here to secure the ear of tb
president and urge revision.
These are the men, Says an Off.
cial close to the president, whose
ideas have been repudiated in way,
who are now clamoring for revision.
The president listens, but he says
nothing either for or against revi.
sion. It will be the bone and sinew
Of the party, the stand patters' If you
will, who will decide whether there
is to be an extra session and revi.
sion of tariff schedules. In other
words, the schedules will be revised
by the friends of protection and not
by its enemies"

There has crept into the discussion
of revision much bitterness. according
to advices received here The old
leaders of the senate and house are
resenting the activity Of the out and
out revisionists.
The president had callers today for
and. against revision.
Senator Foraker, of Ohio. warm
friend of the president, when asked
what he thought about an extra ses.
sion for tariff revision, talked as II he
would have more definite opinion to
express later. He did go so far AZ
to say: THE recent election indicate
ed pretty fair degree of contentment
with existing conditions" and this
was generally construed as opposition
against tinkering with the tariff un-
til most careful consideration has
been given It, e
Senator McCumber, of North
Dakota, was of the same opinion.
There Is time enough to think It
all over before the Fourth Of March,"
said the North Dakota senator. II do

CODE is VERY PLAIN
ON THE MAYORS FEES
There is No Warrant Of Law For Giving Them tc
the Officials-Must Go Into City Treasury.

1875 of the municipal code, which reads
as follows:
Sec. 1875. Council shall fix the SAL
aries Of all officials, clerks and en-
ployes of the city government, except
as otherwise provided In this act, AND
ALL FEES PERTAINING TO ANY
OFFICE SHALL BE PAID INTO THU
CITY TREASURY"
An examination of the code shows
that there is no other reference to tho
matter and no exception that would
In any way allow fees to be- diverted
from the city treasury to tho mayors

sion that can be reached is that every
cent of tho costs thus collected should
have gone TO the city.
Tho city council. in fixing the sal
