NEW TARIFF IN EFFECT.
VIII Have Tendency to Hold Austria
and Hungary Together.

Vienna, March 1.-The new commercial
treaties between Austria-Hungary and
Germany, Italy, Russia and Belgium, and
also the new Austro-Hungarian autonom-
Gus tariff on which the treaties were
based became effective today.
The dual monarchy probably enters on
a new period of commercial relations with
foreign countries, particularly the neigh
boring states of central Europe. The
tariff treaties were destined to give in
creased protection to Austro-H Hungarian
agricultural and manufacturing interests,
for the tariff increases duties not only on
manufactured goods, but alsd on all sorts
of provisions. 1t is even feared in some
quarters that It will increase the cost
of living in this country without a COM
mensurate increase In general prosperity
The satisfaction with the treaties is
general. 1t is recognized that they will
hold Austria Hungary together at least
economically. for the period they will en-
dure. namely. twelve years This will
guarantee the internal peace of the MON
archy Furthermore II will guarantee
continued mutual customs system for
both halves of the monarchy increases
industrial security and assures the manu-
facturers that they can count on tbe
maintenance of the new economic condf-
tons in central Europe with a reason
able certainty for twelve years.

Shaw Wants Brokers Licensed.

Washington, March 1.-Secretary
Shaw appeared before the House COM
mittee on ways and means today in
support of the Payne bill for the
licensing of custom house brokers'.
He urged that the licensing of such
brokers' would tend to keep "shysters"
out of the business and would result in
raising the standards just as the
licensing of professional men has ele-
waited the professions. Secretary Shaw
said the government loses from S10,-
0O0.O 900 to $40,000,000 year on under
valuation frauds, and said much of
this loss could be avoided if more
well equipped agents could be en-
plOyed.

Rev. Willoughby Claybrooke, rector of the
Episcopal church, in delivering his Ash
Wednesday sermon yesterday, made a
strong denunciation of the habit of card
playing which has for several seasons
past been the chief means of amusement
in social circles here.
Mr.. Glaybrooke maintained that card
playing is contrary to the teaching of re-
ligion and becomes a vice when practiced
to the extent that now prevails in Hunts
VILE. There was fashionable eongre-
CATION in the church and the sermon was
heard with great interest.

was argued that he did not intend to
kill the man, but the governor held that
this was not sufficient cause for him

railroad commission, and candidate for
the democratic nomination. for governor,
will address the voters of Montgomery at
the county court house on the evening of
March 8, having notified local friends to
that effect today. 1t is quite probable that
he will have a large crowd as he has
many admirers in the Capital City of
the state.
There was some surprise here that DR..

same honors, did not meet Mr. Conner at
Vernon yesterday as it was understood
here he would do. The friends of both
were waiting to hear today from what
they thought would be the second joint

ham did not appear 1t is thought there
was some mistake in the report that they
would both appear at the same time.
The citizens of this city have not had
the opportunity to hear Mr.. Conner since
he became a full-hedged candidate for

his race for president of the railroad

get what he has to say from first hands.
