The German Tariff.

1t is the agricultural interests of the
United States which will suffer most
from the new German tariff. The in
creased duties were for the most part
imposed with view to the protection
OF German agricultural products. They
were demanded by the agrarians. These
duties will consequently bear most
heavily upon some of the principal ar
ticles We export from Germany. 1t is
pointed ont that the difference between
the general rates and the conventional
rates, the latter being for countries
which have effected some reciprocity
arrangements with the German govern
ment, is very great, in many cases as
much as 100 per cent. This is so as
to wheat, flour, corn, lard and some
other articles. At present fresh ap-
pies are admitted free into Germany,
but after March l the duty on them
will be S2.3S per 100 kilogram. equal
to 22O.4 pounds.
The New York Times remarks that
any one can see that here is matter
not to be neglected. THE consequence
of neglecting it will be TO make Ger

products. She will look to Argentine

portion of her supplies, and Europe.

Macomb Journal: From all appear
ances AT this date, Congressman James
Mckinney is to have the field of re-
publican congressional nomination to
himself at the coming convention in
this district. So far the Journal has
heard of no other candidate and there
is likely to be none. Under the pri-
mary election law, a would-be candi-
date for congress on the republican
ticket in this district has TO file petit
ton containing considerably over 1000
names before he can get on the pri-
mary ballot; and as the procuring of
such list is no-fun job it practically
eliminates from the contest those who
might desire to make the race simply
to get before the public. but with no
thought of securing the prize. Hence,
unless a man is bonafide of intention,
he will not enter the race.

ROBERTS WAS FINED $40

Well Known coIored Character in Po-

erts-Heavier Fine was Asked.

Haley Roberts was tried IN police
court yesterday afternoon on the
charge of assault and battery ON nis
sister-in-law, Mrs. Riley Roberts.
Prosecutor Jessup demanded that
Roberts be heavily fined, given a Jail
sentence and bound over to keep the
peace. Judge Converse let him off
with a fine of $40 and costs.
The trouble between Roberts and
his sister-in-law was over washing
wringer which Roberts had loaned to
her. Roberts sent his step-son to get
it and on Mrs. Riley Roberts refusal
to give it up he went to her home
and took the wringer by force. Rob
erts attorney, r. K. Shiveley, denied
that his client had hit the woman,
stating that all of the fighting was
on her part. 1t was shown by Prose
cutor Jessup that Roberts had been
up in police court several times be-
fore and that he is known as a fight
ing man.

Washington, June 28.-A final ef-

and Secretary of War Taft to secure
the confirmation of the nominations
of the Isthmian Canal commissioners
before congress adjourns.
1t has just occurred to the commits
sioners themselves that unless they
are confirmed at this session and are
given recess appointments by the
President they will have to serve all
through the summer without being
able to draw cent of pay.
They are now all IN New York, and
expect to sail for Panama this after
noon, and naturally they are waiting
with eagerness for comforting word
from Washington. Secretary Taft
tried to induce the Senate to act yes
terday afternoon but without success,
and it looks as though the Senate
would remain obdurate and let the
commissioners go to Panama with
their salaries suspended until next
December.

Today Trickett began sending out

A special to the News from Washing
ton says:
Joseph B. Healing, United States
district attorney, for Indiana, Joined

of Justice this afternoon. He came
over by invitation from Attorney Cen
eral Moody, who, with district attor-
neys from various States, is perfect
ing the plan of compaign against the
Standard Oil and other trusts. The
conferences began at the Department
of Justice on Tuesday. The fact that
Mr.. Healing was not invited to the ini-
tial conference leads to the belief that
there has been late day determina-
tion to begin some of the prosecutions
against the Standard at Indianapolis.
This afternoon all the law officers of
the Government called here and went
to the White House with the Attorney
General, where the war program was
considered in detail. The president
is deeply interested and will insist
that the Government attorneys shall
leave nothing undone in the legal bat
tie about to begin.
1t is known that the evidence is
ready for submission to the Federal
grand jury in Several states. 1t was
said this afternoon that today's con-
ference would probably determine
whether evidence will be submitted to
a jury, at Indianapolis. AS has been
pointed out in these dispatches, some
of the worst violations of the rebate
law were on shipments from Whiting,
Ind, to Evansville, and from Whiting
to East ST. Louis.
The Government will seek to secure
indictments against both Standard Oil
officials and and officers of railroads
that granted the rebates. 1t is evi-
dent that the Government is at last in
earnest in the fight against the Stand
ard.
