TENTH YEAR OF DINGLEY Law
The Collections Under II During the Decade
Amounted to 81 75 ,s8s. $40.

WASHINGTON. July 2a.-To-day was the
tenth anniversary Of the enactment OF the
Dingley tariff law, and IL Senator Hopkins

figures including all except the collections
made in the last seven days Of July. 1897.
Of which no separate recor was kept.
The largest revenue results OF the Dingley
law were realized in the fiscal year closed
on June 30 last. when the collections
amounted to more than s33s. 900. 900. or more
than a million dollars a day for every bust
ness day Of the year. Tn value of manu-
featured products in the United States,
some OF which have been protected" by
the Dingley law. has increased to a larger
extent sven than the customs collections.
In the five years from 1901 to 1905 the GUS
receipts were 81 800. $50. 247, but the

Should the Dingley law remain in force

OKLAHOMA ELECTION CALLED.
Difference or Opinion rs to Possibility Of
Further Constitution Tink ering.


GUTHRIE, Okla. July 24.-Gov. Frantz
to-day issued his procla nation calling
for an election IN September IL to ratify
or reject the proposed State Constitution.
to vote on State wide prohibition and to elect
State. Congressional, judicial, legislative.
county and township officers.
In issuing the proclamation Gov. Frantz
sought legal advice from Attorney General
Cromwell. who held that after its issuance
no amendments to the Constitution can he
made, even though the constitutional con-
vention did not adjourn sine die. Prominent
attorneys in he convention think other-
wise.
As the vote by which the Constitution
is adopted will have TO be certified by the
State Election Board TO President Roose-
welt, IL ia not improbable that in the event
an attempt ia made to amend the Consti-
tuition before il reaches the President
the regularly constituted board would re-
fuse to certify the amendments thus made.
In that event the President could not
go behind the returns and the certified
copy made by the regular custodian of the
official parchment. and thus the amend
ments, should any be made. could not be
considered by the President.

Germany VetOcs English Proposal as TO Con.

Special Gable Despatch 10 The sun.
The HAGUE. July 2i.-National politics
again overcame international peace to-day
when Germany, which is nearly self-sup-
porting as regards her food supply. raised
a blank negative to the proposal of England.
which is largely dependent upon sea borne
produce. hat contraband be abolished
GermaDy's opposition reduces the British
proposition to a pious opinion from the
mere fact that it prevents unanimity. II
moreover draws a sharp line Of demarcation
between the nationalities. which. without
necessarily being belligerents, are concerned
in distributing staple commodities.
Except hat Germany has taken the risk
of bringing England and America together.
although from different motives, there is no
practical issue possible from the conferences
treatment of the c~ontraband proposal.
America remains, as on the question Of
private property at sea. in favor of any
measure which will limit the area of destruc-
ton in war.
The matter came up at a meeting of
the commission on rules of maritime war
fare. Lord Reay, on behalf of the British
Government, proposed the abolition of
contraband. He explained how the public
dangers entailed by the pursuit Of contra
band had been immeasurably increased
with military and commercial progress.
These dangers, he said. were such that no
compensation for wrongfuuy destroyed
property could prevent a feeling of national
excitement, which possibly would precipi-
tate war.
Immediately on the conclusion of Lord
Reay's address DIR. Kriege, the German
delegate. arose and declared a complete
negative Of the proposition on behalf Of
Germany.
II commission then adjourned.
The commission. which should have
voted to-day on Frances proposal for
the announcement of hostilities before they
are opened, postponed the vote, and another
commission which sought TO arrive at an
agreement on a sea IL Of payment for the
maintenance of prisoners Of war also failed

LONDON. July 25.-Mr. Monaghan of ST.
Louis, one of eight American lawyers who

said to a Daily Mail reporter after visiting
the London law courts yesterday that their
impressions of the administration OF English
justice were disappointing.
The Judges we're too advanced in age
and we're apparently not men of the world.
They seemed insuficiently experienced in
every day life and every day business.
They simply sit in judgment and lay down
the law just as it was administered hundreds
of years ago. A Judge elected to the bench
in America was invariably a man Of the
world. with wide human knowledge, a man
OF modern life.
Altogether British legal machinery i'm
