Boston, Jan. 16.-Impressed by an irn- passioned plea for clemency, Judge Holmes in the superior criminal court to-day reduced by one-half the sentence which on yesterday he imposed upon Charles H.

 Perhaps" said Martin, addressing the court yesterday, "it strikes your honor that there isn't much left for me to say after you have heard that rec ord. Well, there isn't, but I am going to ask for another chance. I have been up against it all my life-ever since was little shaver I have never had a fair show he pleaded, land 1 ask your honor to grant it to me now"
 The prisoner was given a sentence of not more than ten or less than eight years at the state prison, and he began his term last night. To-day Judge Holmes sent for Martin and informed him that he had reduced the sentence to not less than four or more than five years.

 New York, Jan. 16.-Marshall Field, the multi-millionaire Chicago merchant, died at the Holland house at 4 o'clock this afternoon after an heroic struggle with pneumonia lasting eight days. Death came peacefully while members of the family, who had been in almost constant attendance for several days, were gathered around the deathbed. They, as well as the dying merchant himself, were prepared for the end. For days they had been swayed between hope and fear, but when the alarming tNAl II CollAiC tO-ddy eellGl lllO 10illclI hclU4S rally of yesterday 1t was recognized that the end had only been briefly de- ferred. Those who were present when the merchant died were Mrs. Marshall Field, Mrs. Marshall Field, 5r., Augus- tus N. Eddy, Catherine Eddy, John c. Lincoln, Mrs. Henry Dibblee and Mrs. Preston Gibson,
 The ray of hope which flashed to the watchers yesterday afternoon, when the seemingly dying man suddenly ral- lied and for time appeared to gain strength rapidly, was first dispelled by an announcement after the morning consultation of the physicians to-day. MT, Fields rest had been disturbed dur ing the latter part of the night, and when morning came 1t was found that the in. pavement of yesterday had not been maintained. From that time until the end the approach of death was steady and irresistible. By noon all hope again had fled. At 2 o'clock word came from the sick room that MT. Field was very low and that the end was ex- pected at any moment.

Seized.
 St, Petersburg, Jan. 16.--All the mem bers of the workmen's council, num- bering twenty-two persons, were arr rested during the night. The police seized many revolutionary documents and a mass of correspondence The government officials consider that tho future action of the revolutionists will be hampered by the capture of the members of the council and the revo- lutionary documents.

EIGHY-HOUR DAY MUST GO
NOT FEASIBLE IN YORK ON
 PANAMA CANAL.

Chief Engineer Stevens Speaks Plainly
 to Senate Committee on IIlteroceanic
 Canals Chinese Exclusion Laws
 Must be Repealed--Negro Labor from
 Martinique and Jamaica ShiftIess-
 Cannot Injure American Labor.
 Washington, Jan. 16,-Chief Engineer John F. Stevens, in charge of the con struction of the Panama canal, was be- fore the senate committee on inter- oceanic canals throughout to-day. He gave much important testimony in re- gard to labor conditions, declaring that the acts making the eight-hour and the Chinese exclusion laws applicable to the canal zone must be repealed if the situation is to be met economically and the canal built within a reasonable time. The minority report of the con- sulting board of engineers, regarding the type of canal, was not received to- day, and therefore Mr. Stevens will be recalled for examination on this sub ject before he sails for the isthmus. The committee will meet tomorrow to take up the nominations of canal com missioners but there is said to be lit- tie chance of an agreement being reached at this meeting to report the nominations to the senate.
 Sanitary and labor conditions on the isthmus were the chief subjects con sidered to-day, practically all of the afternoon session being devoted to the later. MT. Stevens described the negro laborer from Martinique and Jamaica as shiftless and incompetent to such an extent that the payment of small wage for an eight-hour day is proving an extravaganza. He declared that the repeal of the eight-hour law, so far as it applies to the canal zone, is ne- cessity, and that it would be beneficial to legislate so that the Chinese exclu- sion act will not apply to the zone.
 He said that such legislation would in no manner injure American labor, as the latter is unfitted for employment there:
 Denial was made by MT Stevens of the charges of labor troubles, anl also that the canal officials had imported women to the zone for immoral pur- poses. It was his opinion that the commission was getting matters in shape, so that good showing can be made to congress in the near future. In order that the committee may un- derstand the progress of the work he suggested that large map of the canal zone be secured before he testifies again. He said that he could point out the difficulties to be encountered and could give the committee a better un- derstanding of the work.

PHILIPPINE TARIFF
 BILL PASSES HOUSE
GOES THROUGH BY 4 VOTE OF
 25S TO 7I.

Measure Substantially the Same as 1t
 Came from the Ways and Means
 Same Tariff as Sugar and Tobacco
 These Results Obtained After De-
 cidedly Strenuous Day.
 Washington, Jan. 16.-The Philippine tariff bill was passed by the house to- day substantially as 1t came from the ways and means committee. The vote was 25S to q. Rice was made subject to the same tariff as sugar and tobac- co, 25 per cent of the Dingley rates. and one or two changes were made as to language.
 These results were obtained after de- cidedly the most strenuous day of the present congress.
 The many amendments which were launched and went to pieces in the storm of debate and against the rock which the house rules constituted, left much legislative wreckage, and many ASSolNS VilS u0tAui lVl AuluI6 pUlillCdl purposes
 Republican opposition to the bill in the interest of American beet and cane sugar and tobacco, tried out it's strength early and gave up. This opposition refused to affiliate with democratic efforts, The strongest plea for 'insurgent' support was made In behalf of Champ Clark's amendment reducing the differential on refined sugar The minority sought to dupli- cate the house record made on the Gu, ban reciprocity act, but they reckoned without their host to-day as not a re- publican opponent to this measure stood with them to overrule the de- cision of the chair.
 The democratic substitute met with only the support of the minority and went down under a vote of 231 to 106 On the final passage of the bill the "in- surgents' demanded a roll call that their record might be preserved.
 An effort, sustained by the demo- crats, but opposed by all but three re- publicans, was initiated by MT. Mccall Of Massachusetts, to commit the United Sattes to the policy of granting inde- pendence to the Philippine islands as soon as their inhabitants can be pre-. pared for self-government.
 The bill admits goods, the growth or product of the Philippine islands, into the United States free of duty except sugar, tobacco, and rice, on which a tariff of 25 per cent. of the Dingley rates is levied. It provides that after April II, 1909, there shall be absolute free trade each way between the Unit ed States and the Philippines. It also exempts Philippine goods coming to the United States from the export tax of those islands Merchandise from either country is subject to the internal reve- nue tax of the country in which such merchandise is withdrawn for con- sumption.
 The house adjourned at 6:20 o'clock.
