Chief Criticisms Made Thus
Far Against Aldrich
Tariff Bill.
Continued from First Page,

articles in the Aldrich bill are merely
put back to the level of the present
duties. Tea, coffee. and cocoa are on
the free list, but they are on the free
list in the Dingley law.
AS to the steel schedules, the rates
are put back by the Aldrich bin nearly
to the Dingley figure, with the exception
that steel rails remain where they were
reduced to by the Payne bill. The SER
ious question asked about the changes
In the steel schedules Is whether they
will afford any relief TO the ultimate
consumer Many members of Congress
think they will not, for the reason.
as they consider. that the rates in the
DingleY law are SO much too high
that they can be shaded of materially
without increasing fore. gn competition
with the United States Steel Corpora
ton.
In the Senate q determined effort will
be made to get the steel duties reduced
materially from the points agreed on by
the Finance Committee.

CLEAN CITY MOVE
MAY invoke LAW
Women to Insist Trash Wag-
ons Be Covered to Keep
Litter From Streets.

Members of the executive committee
of the organization Washington women
recently formed for the purpose Of civic
reform are making it plain that they
mean business. 1t was stated today
that if the Commissioners OF the Dis
trict fail to compel drivers of the muni-
cipal trash wagons to cover their
wagons. legal steps will be made to re-
Quire them to do so.
A lawyer will be engaged to direct the
committee in it's work. and a reasonable
time will be allowed to pass before ary
such action is taken. But the commit
tee Is confident that it is the duty of the
Commissioners to require trash wagons
to be covered Otherwise, the committee
alleges. the trash blows from the wagons
almost as soon as 1t is picked up, and
is scattered over the very streets from
which 1t had been gathered only a few
minutes before.
Sends Out Invitation.
The committee has sent to the wom-
en- Of Washington Heights and to as
many in other parts OF the city as they
lave been able to reach, the following
invitation:
''The Twentieth Century Club invites
you to cooperate in the Cleaner Wash
ington movement by having any paper
lying in front OF your residence next
Thursday morning picked up and
Thursday is the day which has been
set aside by the Twentieth Century
Club and other organizations for the
women or Washington to help clean the
city. This is not intended TO be spec
tacular in any degree. The women who
are behind the movement desire TO get
the whole city cleaned up Of trash and
waste paper In this manner and give
the Street Cleaning Department of the
District Government a new. start in its
work.
Pupils Will Help.
The pupils of certain schools have
already volunteered TO clear the side
walk and parl1ings about their school
buildings and their own homes. It Is
not necessary, the club members de-
clare, for any particular person to clear
OF the parkings and sidewalks, but
the children Of the family or the SER
wants are asked to assist IN the work.
Nobody IS asked to clear off the space
In front Of the home Of somebody else.
Every woman in Washington is invited
just 70 look after her own little bit
OF ground and to taFa the paper of
trash into the house and burn it-not
to throw IT into the street.
Others Promise Aid.
Mrs. Robert VI. la Toilette. wife Of
Senator La Toilette, has written to Mrs.
F. v. Golville, chairman of the commit

lives at 1886 California avenue, and the
members of her executive committee
are preparing to continue the fight
against the abuse of the beauty of
Washington just as long as there is

For that purpose the organization was
formed This Organization is merely

noon of that day. How much time
will be consumed by the court in re-
viewing the testimony and the argu-
ment cannot even be estimated.
The last three witnesses yesterday
afternoon were Chief of Police Cur
dane, Officer John Kearney and Dis
trict Attorney Phelps. The two police
officers declared at the time the de-
tective was employed they were un-
able to secure evidence sufficient to
insure conviction for violation of the
local option law. The district attor-
ney was his own examiner and made
a statement of conditions as he found
them at that time, the testimony of
the officers and himself being to cor
roborate his contention that the con-
dition of affairs at that time was such
that the employment of the detective
was absolutely necessary and that the
incuring of this expense was involun-
tary, not voluntary.
After the district attorney had COM
pleted his statement he submitted
himself for cross-examination. This
developed into more of an argument
than a cross examination and proved
exceedingly interesting TO the few
spectators who happened to be in the
room.

MANY WITNESSES IN
"DETECT|vE" CASE

Admitting that he was unable to
of the fact that he was so well known,
Sheriff 7. ID. Taylor apparently scored
a point for District Attorney Phelps
this afternoon, in the trial OF the suit
brought to enjoin the county from the
payment of the detectives bill The
sheriff declared that local officers
could not secure evidence Of law vio-
lations and that the employment of
someone who was not known was
necessary.
The plaintiffs have finished with
the Introduction of witnesses and Dis
trict Attorney Phelps who represents
the county court as defendant is intro
ducing witnesses in support of his con-
tentions. From appearances this af-
ternoon it is evident that what was
thought to be a long drawn out legal
battle will in reality be rather short.
Though the district attornew Is put
ting on at least one witness from every
section of the county their examina-
ton and cross-eXamination are both
short, little time being consumed In
useless questioning.
The witnesses for the plaintiffs were
County Clerk Sailing, County Commits
sioner Walker, Commissioner Lee, G..
W. Bradley, county treasurer; T. P.
Gilliland, county judge and District
Attorney Phelps. Sailing testified as
to the presentation of the bill and the
action taken by the court, while Walk
er declared he had not been consulted
relative to the employment Of the de-
tective. Commissioner Lee testified
to the same effect. The county treas
urer testified as to the amount of the
county's Indebtedness. Judge Gill;
land was also called by this side 10
give some technical information and
he was also called soon after to testi-
fy for the other side.
He said he had discussed with the
district attorney the question of en-
ploying a detective and said he had
sanctioned the action taken by the
district attorney in employing the

Seattle, Wash.-Killed by an elec-
trio shock and practically dead for
Is seconds, then restored to- life by
another shock was the uncanny ex-
perience of Scott Allen, who today
lies on a cot at the Seattle General
hospital
Physicians declare positively that
Allen was dead for at least Is Sec
onds. Then the unusual occurred
and today Allen d live man.
The accident occurred at the power
plant Of the Snoqualmie Power COM
pany. Allen was working at one of
the switches, when he heard a sizzling
sound and intuitively knew that he
had closed a circuit. Thirty thous-
and volts had passed through his
body. He had been instantly killed.
But at the same time the shock
passed through his body there was a
reaction and his body was hurled
through the air and struck the ce-
ment walls Of this switchroom.
The impact started the heart action
again The time he was dead was a
quarter Of a minute.

COAL INDICATIONS
ALONG DESCHUTES
Especial Correspondence.l

Grass Valley, Ore, Sept. 11.-De-
spite the opinions of those who are in
clined to be skeptical, NJ. ]. Colback
is still firmly convinced that he has
discovered coal along the disputed
right of way of the two railroad COM
panies in the Deschutes canyon. His
faith in the proposition was strong
enough to induce him to go to. The
Dalles and file on the land. Others
however, declare what he says is coal
is nothing but black slate.
Some of the material found on the
surface was tested and refused to burn
but no examination of the under
ground material has been made.
The location of the discovery is on
the disputed right of way between the
o. r. & N. and the Oregon Trunk on a
very steep hillside or cliff, about 7b
miles from the mouth Of the Desehutes
river. The place Is not far from
Mhite Horse rapids and the cliff rises
almost precipitately from the river,
leaving hardly trail between the
river and the bluff The country is
40 rough that It is impossible for a
horse to pass, the traveller being COM
PEELED to make the trip on foot. There
are no trees of any account, near the
scene of the discovery, few scrubby
jumpers serving to break the mono
tony of the barren desert waste.
Mr.. Colback is originally from New
York and has been a foreman in one
OF the construction camps. He is ac-
companied by his family.
