CIGARMAKER IN QUANDARY.
II. t. OHterdInEer VIII Reply to
Unions Demand To-day.

Whether or not Henry T. Ofterdinger
will follow the exam0le set by other cigar
manufacturers IN the city and Accede to
/ the increase in wages demanded by the
makers viii be learned this morning, when
he meets a committee Of the Cigarmakers'
Union and give his final answer. Mr.. on
terdinger has said that he could not grant
the demand, for the reason It would prac-
tically put him out of business; that he
would either Lose all profit, or have to
raise the prices of his cigars and thereby
lose trade.
1t may be that he viii do as he at one
time threatened-close his shop. MIR Off
terdinger, it is said, has been employing
forty-eight men, twenty-four of whom
were cigar makers.
Another interesting QUetsiOn raised by
the strike is the stated intention Of the
Cigarmakers' Union to establish a coop
erative company in this city. Nothing
definite has been arranged on this score,
however, and it cannot be definitely said
whether the plans under consideration will
materialize.

NEGRO ROBBER SENTENCED.
Judge Stafford Gives Full Measure
of Punishment tn These Offenders

Justice Stafford. in the Criminal Court.
yesterday sentenced Ernest Parker. col
ored, who was found guilty of robbery,
to ten years in the. Moundsville peniten-
tiary.
Parker, in June last, snatched from
Mrs. Laura Parkinson, while on her way
to her home in Brightwood, her pocket
book. containing a sum of money and
other small articles of value.
1t is the steady determination Of jus
tice Stafford to rid this city Of highway
robbers and other offenders if it is within
his power to DO so. or at least TO inspire
them with a wholesome fear, by imposing
the maximum penalties permissible. The
pleas for mercy advanced by these Of
tenders, while always receiving most con
scientious consideration at the hands of
Judge Stafford, generally are not only
unworthy of consideration. but sometimes
downright preposterous and altogether
impossible.

vision Extended to Them.

Commissioners Macfarland, the author
Of the law placing the savings banks Of
the District of Columbia under the super
vision of the Comptroller of the Currency,
has taken up with Comptroller Ridgley
the proposition TO apply the same super
vision TO building and loan associations
and possibly private banks.
It is the opinion Of both the Commis-
sioner and the Comptroller that some
measure of this sort should be enacted.
In most Of the States the laws provide for
governmental supervision of building and
loan associations. but there is little or
no legislation respecting purely private
banks, not Incorporated under charter.
Commissioner MacfaTiand will hold n
further consultation with the Comptroller

President Roosevelt has been advised 10y
several of his closest friends to urge re-

Hitherto he has been unwilling to head
a movement for revision. because other
things, which seemed to him more press
ing. occupied his time Although all his
Cabinet do not agree with him on this
point, the President does not think the
tariff is related 70 the trust evils. and he
has preferred to forward his own pro-
gramme 10 check the trusts.
There are hopes that the Senate lead
ers viii be disposed to encourage some
rich, chairman Of the Finance Committee,
Join with the President in favoring a re
duction OF schedules. il is expected there
would be little trouble in the House. The
idea now uppermOst among Republican
politicians who think revision issue should
be forestalled Is TO take only few sched-
ules. where the injustice Of present rates
is glaring.
The supporters Of this idea, some of
whom are in the Cabinet, say it would
be folly to claim that a few schedules
cannot be revised without going into the
entire subject Of tariff. and point to the
proof of st.

shown itself in spots during this year s
