LESS DRASTIC PUNISHMENT.
Secretary Bonaparte Favors Repeal OF

Secretary Bonaparte has been in confer
ence with several members of the House

investigation found to have been implicated
in the hazing of fourth classmen will be

day to look over the ground for himself, and
when he returns to Washington he will con-
suit further with the representatives re-
ferred to about these cases. Some of these
appear to believe that they can secure the
passage by Congress of the legislation rec
commended by the Secretary, repeating the
present hazing law and enabling him to
apply system of graded punishment to
midshipmen convicted of hazing.
The Secretary will probably be willing 20
suspend action at Annapolis for a reason

ia ton, but that he will not finally decide
until he returns from Annapolis where ne

As the point has been made that a sus-
pension of further prosecutions at Annapo-
lis would amount to unjust discrimination
against the eight young men who have al
ready been convicted and dismissed from
the academy, 1t may be stated that the
Secretary will refer to the Attorney Gen
eral the question as to whether not the
President has by the extension of pardons
the right to restore these young men to
their places in the academy. His own opin-
ion is adverse, however

REVENUES WOULD NOT SUFFER.
Secretary Taft's View of Reduced
Tariff on Philippine Tobacco.

Secretary Taft resumed his discussion of
Philippine tobacco before the Senate COM
mittee the Philippines today. He ex
pressed the opinion that the United States
probably would not suffer any reduction IN
tariff income from Philippine products under
the proposed Philippine tariff act as the
increase in the amount of insuIar products
sent 10 this country at lower tariff rates
would compensate for the decrease in duty.
Discussing the provision of the bill re-
lating to Philippine sugar, now in bond il
this country. Secretary Taft explained that
Smith. Bell & Co.. an English corporation, In
business in Manila, own sugar In bond upon
which they must pay additional duty, ag-
gregating $500 600 IL their sugar is not per-
mitted to be taken out of bond at the re-
duced tariff rate proposed by the bill. The
Secretary of War said the English firms in
this connection are closely linked with
those Of the islands. and he advised that
the sugar in bond be admitted at the lower
rate.
The Secretary closed his statement with
an argument that the limitations on the
methods of production In the Philippines
would insure for many years protection of
the tobacco and beet sugar interests of this
country.
Beet sugar men will be heard Monday and
Tuesday. and Mr.. Taft will return Wednes-.
day OF next week. Senator Hale gave no.
tice that he desired to examine the Secre-
tary at that time.

1t is daily expected that Senator Spooner

course In relation to pending legislation is
unconstitutional. 1t Is assured however
that as soon as Mr.. Spooner undertakes to
address himself to this subject he will be
met by objection on the democratic side
and an effort to table the resolution as not
within the jurisdiction of the Senate.
1t is understood that Senator Blackburn.
who presided at the democratic caucus
which gave rise to the Patterson resolution
regards this whole discussion in the Sem
ate as without warrant, because IN his view
the Senate has no Jurisdiction over a mat
ter of that kind. The caucus was a private
meeting of the minority senators and no
official report of it can be referred to-
OF course it is not expected that an OBJ
lection of this sort can have any effect
in preventing discussion of the resolution,
but II is likely to give rise to a very spir-
tied controversy in the Senate. Senator
Spooner is awaiting his opportunity to get
into this debate, but various legislative
measures have prevented him from doing
so up to the present time.

TULE LIFE PREsERvERs.
Interesting Special Report Submitted
to Secretary Metcalf.

The serviceability of tule life preservers
forms the subject of special report to
Secretary MetcaIf of the Department of
Commerce and Labor by Supervising In
spector Birmingham of the Pacific coast
district, made public today. The report is
regarded as specially significant at this
time, in view of the allegation made that
the tuIe life preservers on board the VaIen-
cha, recently wrecked off the coast OF
Washington. were of insufficient buoyancy
and practically worthless.
Before the Valencia disaster Secretary
Metcalf called for this report. which is
based on tests made by Rear Admiral
kempff. 1t was demonstrated that life
preservers made of this material, and
Weighing three pounds, were capable of
sustaining twenty-seyen pounds of iron for
more than ninety days. The experiment
was conducted with preservers having their
ends wired and with the ends unbound but
dipped In paraffin paint. The best results
were obtained from the latter. The report
states that as the weight of the human
body in water averages twelve pounds. the
tests show that tule life preservers are
capable of sustaining more than double
that weight
The subject of life preservers aboard the
Valencia will come in for particular atten-
ton by the special commission which will
investigate the disaster.
