BOSTON, Oct 6.-with only one voice
raised in opposition the republicans in Mas
sachusetts in state convention today de-
clared for a revision of the tariff. Con-
trary to expectations, the radical wing of
the party, under the leadership of Eugene
n. Foss of Boston, did not offer a substi-
tute in the platform relating to the tariff
although in a speech to the delegates Mr.
Foss declared that the revision of the tariff
favored in the state platform was not suf-
iciently wide in it's scope. Mr.. Foss said
however, that he and his followers were en-
couraged at the concessions made to them
and that next year they would expect to
have the convention to accept their propo-
sition in its entirety
One Of the surprises came when General
William Draper, former ambassador to
Italy and leading member of the Home
Market Club, opposed in a vigorous speech
the adoption of the tariff revision plank Of
the platform. General Draper said he would
not offer any substitute plank, for the rea-
son that he knew that there was no chance
Of his or anyones substitute being ac-
cepted. General Draper contended that
tariff revision would be followed by finan-
cial and commercial depression, and, speak
ing as a manufacturer. he could see no rea-
son why there should be a revision.
PIanks of the Platform.
The platform presented by the committee
| on resolutions was adopted without amend
ment, and contained, in brief. an endorse
ment Of the administration OF President
Roosevelt, especial mention being made of
his part in bringing about peace between
Russia and aJpan and of his enforcement
of the laws preventing corporations from
depressing the people, a recommendation
for the enactment by congress of a tariff
provision which shall protect American
markets against discrimination and secure
to the United States the treatment ac-
corded to the most favored nation in all
| foreign markets; a resolution for the in
crease of the navy and the upbulding of
the American merchant marine. and an
endorsement of the administration of
former Governor John L. Bates.
Lodge Responds to FOss.
| feature of the days proceedings was
! the address of Senator Lodge. Senator
Ladge took the platform to reply to Eu-
| gene Foss. who had advocated the free
| admission of coal, hides and raw materials.
Mr.. Foss had severely scored the Massa-
chusetts senators and representatives in
congress, Charging that they were not
] loyal to the interests of Massachusetts.
Senator Lodge made forceful and elo-
quent address, and in a parliamentary
manner censured Mr.. Foss for his stric-
lures on the Massachusetts representation
at the capital. Mr.. Lodge also said that
the time for tariff revision was the time
| when the republican party was in power.
! He argued that free raw materials" was
but another term for free trade" and that
the admission of free raw materials would
sound the death knell of reciprocity as
we'll as OF protection.

Denver. Colo, Jan. 9.-The annual
convention of the National Wool
Growers Association opened this
morning at the Tabor Grand Opera
House. After the annual reports
of officers had been read, commit
tee of seven was appointed to con-
slider the proposed reorganization of
the National Live Stock Association
general body of wool growers at as
early a date as possible. The propos-
ed reorganization is based upon va
rious branches of the live stock in
dustry, each branch being consider
ed as a unit, and representatives of
that unit to be regarded as standing
for the interests of that branch in
the annual live stock conventions
which of late have become unwieldy
on account of the large number of
delegates. Each branch of the indus
try is to be controlled by general
committee of it's own members, and
the sole executive authority of the
national organization will be confin-
ed to a committee composed of rep
resentstives from each branch of the
live stock industry.
During the afternoon sessions the
program included five-minute ad-
dresses on the condition of the sheep
and wool industry in various states
and territories.
The speakers included E. S. Gose-
ney, of Arizona; w. A. Lingham of
Colorado; Solomon Luna. of New
Mexico; James Boyd of South Dako-
ia. and c. W. Barney OF Wyoming.
Other addresses on the program
were Growth of Wool and Manufac-
turing in America" by John B. Nc
Pherson; Outlook for Wool" ]. Sill
herman; elimination of Sheep Scab"
ID. z. Salmon; What Makes Good
Wool" Theodore Justice.

The Territorial Legislature Meets Week From Today


AS the Japanese soldiers crowed
about them with evident curiosity
the faces of the Russian officers were
an interesting study. All of them ap-
peared to feel their humiliatiag po-
sitions keenly. and though some Of
them seemed to be resigned TO their
situations. others were resentful at
being regarded as curiosities. The
prisoners were treated with the great
est respect and kindness, though re-
garded with natural curiosity. The
soldiers were given food, cigarettes
and beer, and the Associated Press
correspondent even saw Japanese sol
diers voluntarily carrying the effects
of the prisoners when they were ov-
ercome by fatigue.
The railway has been repaired
and the guage changed almost to the
city of Port Arthur into which trains
will enter within a few days Tele-
phone and telegraph lines have been
to the city. and already
the Japanese engineers are survey
ing the destroyed forts of the east
ern fortified ridge.

Toxic. Jan. 9.-The work of remov-
ing mines and other distractions in
the entrance to the harbor Of Port
Russian war vessels is hampered by
storms and cold weather. 1t is repor-
ted that there is every indication
some of the ships are salvable.
The navy department announces
that il regrets the Misunderstanding
in the case of the British cruiser An
dromeda. which sailed from Wei Hal
Wei on January 5th for Port Arthur
with hospital stores and surgeons to
assist the sick and wounded, and
was not permitted to make a land
ing. The department says the COM
aid offered by the Andromeda owing
to the fact that he had not received
instructions. The British authorities
at Wei Hal Wei were late in notify
ing Sir Claude Macdonald, the Brit
ish minister at Toxic, of the mis-
sion of the cruiser. When the Brit
ish minister received the notification
he Immediately obtained from the
Japanese authorities their grateful
acceptance of the cruisers cargo.
Orders to receive the supplies were
sent to Port Arthur. but when they
reached there the Andromeda had
left on her return to Wei Hal Wei
Owing to the danger of coming in
contact with mines, the department
says, it would have been impossible
TO allow the British launch to enter
Port Arthur.
Toxic, Jan. 9.-The Japanese ex-
press great admiration for General
Fock and other Russian officers for
refusing parole and standing by the
men of their army. The Japanese are
busily preparing to receive the Rus
sian prisoners from Port Arthur.
The first batch of ten thousand are
expected to arrive at Moji and She
monoeski shortly. After disinfection
they will be sent to Moi and other
places. The generals will be treated
in the best possible manner. 1t is un-
likely that any of the prisoners will
be brought to Toxic.
From well informed sources il is
estimated that of the original garri-
son at Port Arthur. thirty-five or
forty thousand men including sailors
were killed or died. The number of
missing men is placed at over ten
thousand.
