SHOE MEN WANT
 TARIFF REDUCED

Chicago, November 26.-At meeting of $50 representatives of shoe manufactur- ing concerns held in Chicago yesterday, plans were formulated for presenting their arguments to the ways and means committee of Congress in Washington next Monday. The delegation of shoe men will leave Chicago tomorrow night. Among the Chicago representatives will be Edward Carpenter, Milton Florishem, John Wilder. J. D. Tilt, M. H. Mac Farland. J. B. Smith. J. E. Pratt and Edward Selz.
 The argument of the shoe men is that d tariff on hides enrches the beef packers at the expense of the farmer and the buy CT of shoes. One of the manufacturers, after the meeting, said:
 We dealers in manufactured products feel justly aggrieved and claim right fully that the b per cent duty on hides compels us to act as a collection agency for the large packers. The 15 per cent tariff benefits nobody but them.
 'The raiser of cattle is in the same boat with us. He is getting the worst of it, although the 15 per cent tariff is supposed to be there for his protection.
 ''The lesson is so simple that any one can understand it with a moments thought.
 James G. Blaine wrote to William Me Kinley in 1890 that it was a great mistake to take hides off the free list where they had been for so many years. 1t was, he said, slap in the face of South Americ- ans, with whom we are trying to enlarge trade. It will benefit the farmer he said further, by adding to per cent to the prices of his children's shoes; it will yield profit to the butcher only
 "The butcher of those days is the pack CT of today, the packer who buys the ami mals on the hoof at his own price with little regard to what it costs the farmer, the protected farmer to raise it.

NEW YORK MAYLOSE
 YERKES LIBRARY

New York, November 26-Beeause the widow of the late Charles T. Yerkes re- fused to pay SIT 900 interest on a mortgage the city of New York will lose the Yerkes library and art gallery adjoining the Yerkes mansion at Fifth avenue and Sixth street. An order providing for the sale of the library under foreclosure on December 16 was entered yesterday as a result of proceedings brought by the Mutt ual Life Insurance company, which held the mortgage.
 MT. Yerkes provided in his will that the library and art gallery should be- come municipal property. and since the suit of the Mutual Life was instituted it was generally understood that the matter would be amicably settled. But unless something is done between now and De- cember 16 the property will be lost to New York as a public institution
 The value of the library is considered to be greatly in excess of the amount of the judgment to be satisfied, $242,296, while the land where the structure IS situated is held at about $12,0OO front foot. With this as an estimate, the property is twice as valuable as the amount of the judg- ment.

FEAR LOSS OF
THE NEXT HOUSE
SOME OF REPUBLICAN LEADERS
ARE VERY MUCH WORRIED
OVER THE OUTLOOK.

WASHINGTON, April 29.-That the
Republicans may lose the next House
notwithstanding the result of the
presidential election, is the fear ex-
pressed by some of the House Re-
publican leaders. Congress is giving
little attention to the recommends
tions of the President. In fact, it is
not putting it too strong to say that
Congress is ignoring the Presidents
recommendations. If the President Is
as popular as many of his admirers
contend, the election of Republican
President and Democratic House as
a rebuke to those who do not worship
at the Roosevelt shrine may be the
result.
The Republican leaders in Congress
from the beginning of the session
have had pretty general understand
ing of what they might accomplish
and what was impracticable to at
tempt. When the President outlined
his policies at the opening of Con-
gress the leaders in both bodies made
up their minds what could be done
and what could not. The currency
bill was one CT the things they thought
could be passed but the President has
devoted more attention to other poll
cies than to currency legislation.
When the Supreme Court knocked out
the employers liability act Congress
OF it's own initiative provided another
to meet the constitutional objections
of the court.
There are decided objections on the |
part of the leaders to going into the |
question of amending the Sherman |
act and other large questions of legis-
lative policy raised by the President.
That has all been explained to the
President time and time again, and 1t
has been thought that the President
recognized the situation.
AS an indication Of the difficulty in
the way of far-reaching legislation of
the scope and character proposed by
the President, the Republicans cite
the embarrassment attending their eff
forts to secure agreement upon cur
-ency legislation, something which
everybody wants. They just about
nave their hands full with this one
and when the President
zones along with other problems, like
V to be more vexatious still, the Re- (
publican leaders, say, they almost
eel Nke giving up the ghost.

GETS TEN YEARS
VERD,ct RENDERED az JURY AT
nc E--Gs, AFTER HOURS
OEL-EFA ON.
INTENSE INTEREST MANIFESTED
Mr. Littleton Scores The Defendant
During His Speech to The
Jurors.

WINCHESTER, Tenn. April 29.-
The trial Of Rev Bryant H. Fukerson.
charged with abduction of Miss Ada
Templeton, ended here this afternoon
IN conyictica. The jury did not re-
main out longer than one hour and
returned a verdict of guilty. assessing
he lightest punishment possible un-
der the Indictment. ten years in the
penitentiary. Attorneys for the de-
tense viii move for a new trial in the
next few days, and ii overruled, an
appeal will be taken to the Supreme
Court.
The Judge allowed an hour for ar
giment on each side. Jesse NJ. Little
ton made the opening speech for the
prosecution. Mr. Littleton was espe-
cially bitter in his denunciation of the
defendants actions, and once, when
he used the term wiper" in connection
with the defendant, there was dem
onstration of approval by the large au-
dience in the court room, which the
Judge quickly suppressed, and gave
orders to the Sheriff to take the names
of any or all who applauded or in any
way disturbed the proceedings of
court.
Arthur Crownover and Ike Crabtree
made speeches for the defense. At
torney General Whitaker closed for
the State, and his raking Of Fulkerson
was merciless in the extreme, so much
so that counsel for the defense inter-
posed objection after objection. But
it was plea in behalf of the purity
Of the home that made strong men
weep. Fulkerson was an attentive
listener, and did not seem to mind
what was going on. He held many
with his attorneys, and at
lines jotted down a point.
The indictment against Fulkerson
lad two counts, one for abducting a
emale for the purpose of prostitution,
md the other for abducting a female
or the purpose of concubinage. the
maximum penalty of either being
wenty-one years in the penitentiary
The judge, in his charge to the jury,
dismissed the first count, that of prosti-
ution, and held that the jury could
My properly try the defendant on the
barge of abducting a female for the
urpose of concubinage. The charge
7as delivered to the jury in the after
Don at 2:30 o'clock
The Winchester court house never
ad larger audience than it did this
forming during the second days pro-
ceilings of the Fulkerson trial The
rowd hung on every word of the tes-
mony and the star attraction was

CARMACK CLUB
IN Triton COUNTY

CONVICTION, Tenn, April pa
Carmack club, with more than fifty
members, has been organized at Nun
ford, thirteen miles southwest from
Covington, in the Sixth district, by
Hon. N. w. Baptist and Col. w. A.
owen. who made rousing speeches,
and greatly enthused the supporters
of Senator Carmack in that communi-
ty. It is claimed that there are only
six Patterson men in the town, and
that the district will be almost a unit
in the support OF Carmack.
Atoka, two miles east of Munford'
is said to be also a stronghold OF Car
mack and that like conditions prevail
in that town.
