A COOL PRISONER.
James Shea Takes Leg Bail from Hos-
 Bltal.

James Shea. charged with breach of the peace upon his wife, yesterday morning calmly walked himself out of the front door of Grace hospital and wended his way homeward.
 He was arrested Sunday and brought to police headquarters. While there he was stricken with an epileptic fit and was sent to the hospital. Yesterday morning the nurses told him to dress and get ready to go to court in the po- lice wagon. Shea dressed all right, but he wasn't too proud to walk, and did- mt object to using the front door either.
 He was arrested again at his home and held in the lookup to await trial to-day. No further charge has been laid against him.

A delegation OF government oflcegs
identified with the tariff administration
viii be sent to Europe next month for
the purpose Of making an investigation
that viii certainly have a far-reaching
effect upon the business Of American inn
porters and manufacturers. and may have
an important bearing on future tariff
legislation.
The delegation will consist OF Assistant
Secretary Of the Treasury James B. Rey-
nolds, and United States General APP
praisers Devries and Wait These men.
next to Secretary Cortelyou, are the high
est officers IN the customs service.
No official announcement OF the pur-
pose OF the trip has been made, but it
is known that Messrs. Reynolds. Dew
ries. and Wait will make a special in
vestigation in England, France and Ger
many Of the conditions which govern
market price" expert price" and the
system Of consular declaration Of in
voices.
These matters have proven OF vital I'M
pOrtance in the negotiations between the
State Department and the German and
French governments. looking TO better
tarif arrangements with these countries.
and they form the real basis of the az
tacks that have been made by such or
ganizations as the American Protective
Tarin League on the Customs administTa-
ton Of the United States, especially in
connection with the German modus
vivendi.
Important Report Expected.
It is probable that Assistant Secretary
Reynolds and his associates viii make
a report which viii have an important
bearing on the negotiations now going on
between the United States and Frince.
After the agreement was concl1oed with
Germany, some. weeks ago, the French
government. through Ambassador JUS
serand, asked for similar concessions. It
was then announced that any and every
other foreign country in which the same
conditions prevailed was. in the view OF
this government. entitled to the Same
privileges as were granted 10 Germany.
France is anxious to negotiate a reci-
procity treaty with the United States. and
there has been many exchanges on the
subject between Secretary Root and AM
bassador Jusserand
Messrs. Reynolds, Devries, and Wait
viii sail for Europe about September IS,
and viii spend several weeks abroad.

Secretary of War Taft returned to
Washington yesterday morning after
months vacation at Murray Bay. Canada
He was at the War Department early,
but denied himself to all callers and de-
voted his time to a revision Of the speech
he is to deliver in Columbus next Monday.
Secretary Taft prepared tie outline Of
his remarks before leaving Murray Bay,
and took rough draft Of the speech with
him TO Oyster Bay and read it TO the
President
1t is said that the President gave his
Endorsement to the utterances Of the Sec
rotary, and added some suggestions, as
told in The Washington Herald, SO that
il may be said that the speech will reflect
the views of the Present upon the sub
jects with which Secretary Taft Will deal
before his Columbus audience. The
speech is said TO deal largely with the
subject OF tariff revision, il favor Of
which the Secretary Of War tekes
strong position.
Secretary Taft authorized a positive de-
nial Of the rumors that any of tbs mem
signihed their intention Of doing so.
He denied also that Wall street matters
were discussed at the meeting with the
President Tuesday in Oyster Bay.
Secretary Taft confirmed the statement
that he would return from the Philippines
by way Of the Siberian Railroad. He
reached this decision because ne would
iea~ a ole z, .
long sea trip across the Pacific.
He expects to leave Manila November
4 and go 20 Vladivostock by a naval yes
sci, reaching there November II. It is his
present intention not 10 make any stops
on the way, but 10 come directly through.
II preparations are being made-to enter
tain him at any Of the European capitals,
he does not know it.
Starts Next Sunday.
The Secretary viii leave here next Sun
day. He Will take with him the material
from which he viii prepare his annual
report during his trip. sending It back
in time for submission TO Congress next
December He will write his address
to the Philippine assembly on the voyage
across the Pacific.
Il was not at all disappointed, said
Secretary Taft. at the result Of the
Philippine elections. It was what had
anticipated, and. in fact. predicted in my
speech al ST. Louis two OF three months
ago. From what I know personally.
however, about some Of the men who
were elected on the Independistas ticket
I am convinced that there viii be a con-
servative element IN the assembly.
People Afraid TO Vote.
What was surprised az was the small
number Of the voting popu ion that
actually participated in the election by
going 20 the polls. I attribute this to
the timidity Of the people az taking part
! in politics for fear Of how their neigh
bors might regard their attitude. By the
time the ne3ts election comes around.
when the idea OF exercising suffrage viii
not be so new. I am sure that much
larger vote viii be cyst"
Secretary Taft is greatly improved Ia
health as result Of his summer vacation
/ He is as brown as a berry. and has lost
the cough which troubled him for some
months before he went away, but ad-
mits that be has gained Just a few
pounds OF flesh.

CANNOT GRANT APPEAL.
Corporation Counsel Gives Opinion
in MuIhaH-MatheVys Case.


in MuIhaH-MatheVys Case.
Corporation Counsel E. Il. Thomas, in
an opinion submitted TO the Commission
ers yesterday. holds that It is not within
their Jurisdiction to entertain an appeal
from the findings Of the police trial board
in the case Of Capts. J. 2. Mulhal and
William II. Mathews. who were adJudged
not guilty OF charges made against them
in connection with the death Of Engineer
Hugh Murphy. Of the Southern Railway.
last September.
According to the corporation counsel
the Commissioners are empowered only
to modify or reduce the findings or pen
atty OF the police trial board. and as the
policemen were found not guilty they
have no jurisdiction.
The appeal was made by the Brother
hood Of Locomotive Engineers through
Attorney Charles Bendheim. on the
grounds that the finding of the police
trial board was contrary the weight of
evidence, and that the board was illegally
and unlawfully organized. Mr.. Bendhein
said yesterday that the matter viii prob
ably be taken to the courts.
