TARIFF CAUSES UNEAslNEsS
Republicans Fear They VIII Have Hard
Time to Explain Why Congress
Did Not Act on Tariff
Question.

WASHINGTON, July 10 tSpeciaD.-
In the pending Congressional election
the work OF the recent session OF Con-
gress is going to be made the issue Of
both parties. Republicans win point
with pride to the rate bill the pure food
bill and other remedial legislation. These
measures, they win contend. were con.
eeived by a Republican President and
enacted at his behest by Republican
Congress. Mr.. Roosavelt's popularity
viii be played as strong card.
The Democrats, on the other hand,
will tell the voters that whatever of
good was enacted into law at the recent
session was borrowed from Democratic
preachments by the Republican presi-
dent and by him forced upon an unwill-
ing Republican majority in Congress.
Much also will be made of the fact that
without the help of Democratic votes
the most benefcent of these measures
could not have prevailed, and whatever
credit is accriing, therefore. will be
claimed for the Democracy. Going fur
ther, the Democrats will recount the
sins of omission, especially
The failure to readjust the tariff.

Tariff Causes Uneasineess.

The tariff is a thing that is causing
no little uneasiness to those charged
with responsibility for the Republican
Congressional campaign. The people are
talking tariff to an extent not at all
reassuring, and there is deeply-ground-
ed fear that the matter may prove
troublesome when the Democratic SPELL
binders open up in easnest.
A considerable number Of Republican
members who represent close districts
are especially unhappy over the tariff.
Their people are in favor of tariff re-
vision and they themselves have gone
on record in advocacy Of an adjustment
of the schedules. They are going to find
it embarrassing to explain why nothing
was done to afford relief. Their lot
would have been little more enviable
had any promise Of tariff revision been
held out by the Republican leaders in
Congress, but the bold stand-pat position
assumed by Speaker Cannon and the
other ruling powers leaves them with
little to offer when the voters demand
the why's and the wherefores.

WAGE CONTEST ON
OELR|CHS WILL
Judge of Surrogate Court
Takes Testimony to Show
Legal Home of Testator
LAW ON DOVER RIGHT

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-The contest
over the will of Herman Oelrichs, who
died while returning from Europe TO
the United States last June, has not
been settled.
It was announced a week ago that
a settlement had been effected by
which Mrs Oe1richs was to receive Pa
cific Coast railway bonds valued at
500, 600, and his son the Cygnus estate
in California valued at $4,000 A de-
cree was subsequently submitted to
the Surrogate for court signature, but
on account of objections was not
signed.
Surrogate Judge Fitzgerald today
took the testimony of the subscribing
witnesses to the viii and also the testi-
mony of other witnesses to prove that
the testator, some time prior to his
death, had definitely given up his resi-
dence in California and intended to
make his future residence here. Ac-
cording to the laws of California, Mrs.
Oelrichs would be entitled to the bulk
of her husbands estate, whereas, un-
der the laws of the State of New York.
her share would be comparatively
small, as the estate consists almost al
together of personal property and her
right of dover would only extend to
life interest in the real estate.
Under the terms of the will prac-
tically the whole estate goes to Mr..
Oelrichs' brother and sister.
