Will CALL AN
EXTRA SESSION
Ninety Per Cent. of congressman OPP
pose Tariff Revision.
NO FRICTION WITH PRESIDENT

Washington, Jan. II. President
Roosevelt favors the earliest possible
action looking to a revision by con-
gress of the tariff. He so informed the
senator's and representatives who were
in conference with him at the White
House last Saturday. and he has made
plain his position to others since that
conference. He will call the 59th con-
gress into extraordinary session as
that they are prepared TO submit
tariff measure for passage.
While no decision of definite char
acter has been reached as to the time
of the extraordinary session. it is rea-
sonably certain that. if one should be
held, it will be called to meet next
autumn. probably in October. On this
point, however, it is too early to speak
definitely, as by the agreement to be
reached between the president and the
leaders of the senate and the house of
representatives. the extraordinary ses-
sion will not be called until the COM
mittees are ready to report bill.

of legislation relating to the inter-
state freight rates of railroads. his
mind is quite made up. He will fight
for that legislation and fight hard. He
hopes to secure from congress some
definite action regarding that legisla-
ton at the present session; but if he
does not. he will bring the subject
again before congress at the proposed
extraordinary session, and will urge
with all his power the crystallization
into law of the recommendations he
already has made to congress on that
question. The freight rate question he
does not regard as enc of expediency.
He holds that it is subject in which
great principle is involved and one
very near to all the people of the
country. He regards it, in fact, as the
paramount issue at this time. far and
away more important than the pro-
posed revision of the tariff.

RAISINCER TO
DIE ON GALL0WS
New Jersey Farmer Found Guilty
of Wife Murder.
TO BE HANGED FEBRUARY Is

Bridgeton, n. j., Jan. i2.-The jury
In the case against Frank Raiainger
returned a verdict of murder in the
FIRST degree against the self-confessed
slayer of his young wife. and he was
sentenced to be hanged February Is.
The marvellous nerve OF the pris-
Oner was not shaken as he listened TO
the words of William G. Champion. of
Millville. the foreman of the jury,
sending him to the gallows. Attorney
Iredell says it is probable he will either
ask for new trial or will make an
appeal to the state board of pardons.
The attorney for Raisinger made a
strong effort to prove that the accused
man was insane. His principal wit
ness was DR.. Milton r. Mobiles. of
Philadelphia. who pronounced Rails
niger a degenerate. Drs. Ellsmore
Sites. David Oliver and John Moore,
all of this city, were called as wit
nesses by the prosecution. and each
declared that Raisinger was sane and
responsible fCr his acts.
Raisinger was put on the stand for

bore the same expression which has
characterized il since the murder.
With his peculiar looking eyes riveted
on the floor he unblushingly made
statements that caused more than one
OF his auditors to turn his head away
with shame. After questions of this
nature had been concluded Raisinger
told of the killing of his wife. His
story did not materially differ from
| those already made public. except that
he declared that he shot his wife while
she was lying on the kitchen floor
When Raisinger was cross-eXamined
by District Attorney Fithian he sur
prised everybody by making the state
ment that after he shot his wife he

hold the gun he was unable to pull the
trigger.
This stage of the proceedings was
exceedingly dramatic. and Raisinger.
coolly and collectedly. handled the
weapon and showed how he killed his
wife and then tried self-destruction.
The startling part of the cross-ex-
animation was that the prosecutor
was unable to obtain any motive for
the murder from the testimony of the
witness. He denied that his wife was
angry with him, and that she struggled
against him. He said she lay on the
kitchen floor. and he, for no reason
whatever. went into the sitting room.
and. getting the weapon. came back
and shot her. He then went back into
the other room. and. lying on the
couch. pointed the gun at his breast.
and. stretching his arm out, tried to
pull the trigger. but was unable to.
Then he returned and shot the woman
again. She was still alive when he
fired the second shot, as her head was
moving and her hands twitching.

OPPOSE TARIFF REVISION
Poll of House Showed 90 Per ent. of
Members AGAINST IL,


Washington, Jan. PA prominent
mittee of the house said that the poll
which the leaders of the house had
conducted of the Republican members
on the question of tariff revision show
ed that 80 per cent. of the members
who had been approached We're against
revision.
All of the leaders of the house ex-
cept Representative Payne. chairman
Of the ways and means committee, who
is laid up with rheumatism, and Rep
resentative Tawney. are against re-
vision. The work of crystallizing SEN
timent against revision is being done
by Representatives Dalzell, of Penn
sylvania, and Grosvenor, of Ohio. The
tangible result in this direction, it is
stated, is the signature of practically
all of the Republican members from
the states. of Pennsylvania. Ohio. New
York, New Jersey and West Virginia
to petitions against tariff revision. The
Pacific coast delegation endeavored to
get together. but without avail The
friends of revision seem to be taking
no active interest in advancing their
ideas in the house, but claim to have
many members in the various delega-
tiOns on their side.
The president corroborated the
statement attributed to him that the
tariff question was one merely of ex-
pediency, which would be solved with
out friction between him and the con-
gress. Any serious differences. he is
known to have said, between him and
the congress on the tariff revision mat
ter are quite impossible.
