 ward Revision.

Washington, August 5 - Both houses of Congress today passed the Payne tariff revirsion bill today and it was immediately signed by President Taft. The eX- traordinary session of Congress was brought to close at 6of- clock tonight both houses adjourn ing sine die.
 The conference report on the bill was agreed toA by the Senate by a vote of 47 to 31 when the vote was taken at 2 o'clock this afternoon and soon after the coh.' current resolution making certain changes in the leather scheduie was adopted by both houses.
 President Taft arrived at the capitol at 4.45 pm, and entered the room set aside for the occupal- tion of the president on the con- cluding day of a session of Con- gress. His appearance there the first since his incumbency as president caused members of Con- gress to desert the two chambers and form in line to be received by him. There was a constant pro cession of handshaking states men through the Presidents room from the time of his arrival until his departure at 5.5O o'clock
 Just as the hands of the gold clock in the Presidents room reached six minutes past five, the Payne tariff bill as the measure will be known was laid before the president, He picked up a pen supplied by Chairman Payne of the House, Ways and Means Com mittee and which had been used by both the vice president and the speaker in signing the bill ani attached his signature. After
The Prescott daily news., 1909-08-06

After one of the bitterest ard one of the most momentous legislative du- els in the history of the national cap- ital the new tariff measure, the Payne bill, has been completed.
 The progress of the bill through the legislative mill of both houses was eventful enough to satisfy the most pronounced cravers for parliamentary warfare. The real battle opened when the bill (house report 143S) was re- ceived in the senate and referred to the committee on finance. April 10. Aldrich of Rhode Island, the leader of the senate as chairman of the finance committee, subsequently became chair man of the conference committee, which was appointed to adjust the diff ferences arising between senate and house and between both houses of congress and the president
 Taft For Free Hides.
 The report of the conference com mittee which determined what would be the provisions of the Payne bill in Its final form was victory for Pres ident Taft. He informed all of the conferees that hides must be placed on the free list, together with petro- leum, crude and refined. They there upon decided to cut the Dingley tariff on hides to 8 per cent. The president heard the news and sent word that he had meant what he had said about free hides. The figures were then lowered to per cent. Now Chairman Serene E. Payne of the ways and means committee decided to demon strate that his original bill, providing for free hides should no longer be sub- jected to the emasculatory operations of the majority of the conferees. He announced that not even per cent duty on hides would be accepted by either himself or the house. "Without free hides this tariff bill will not pass the house." he was quoted as saying.
 The tariff came off hides instanter, and as quickly was oil put on the un- taxed schedule, together with gaso- line. benzine and naphtha. The leather

TOM COFfMAN
 LODGED IN JAIL
Charged With Killing Bruce SterIey in the Lower Part of the County
 Monday Night.

Tom Coffman, colored. of Tav- Tor township was brought to Prescott last night and paced in the county jail, charged with murder.
 The crime of which Coffman is charged was the killing from amp. push of Bruce Sterley, Monday night at the latter's home near Stockton,
 Sterley about ten o'clock on the night of the killing stepped out on the porch at his home. and lililedlately there were two re- ports from a shot gun. Ster,ey,s Wlfe ran to the porch, to find He extinct. She at first supnosed her husband had committed sui- eide and so reported, the matter to her neighbors. But an inves- tlgation of the wounds revealed that someone else had fired the shots and evidences were found where the party had crouched in the fence corner awaiting his op,- portunity.
 "AOOu llOuhiS " SIc StCurtu. IrOn stamps, and beginning the trail early the next morning, tracked the murderer to Coffman's home Where he was found in bed.
 Another circumstance connect- Ing Coffman with the crime is the tracks made by the party as he leit the scene after the shooting. Tied across the top of his shoe on one foot and under the sole was string used to hold shoe and sole together and the sign made by the string was plainly evident. A search of Coffman7s premises disclosed the shoe which made the track. neatly hidden away.
 CoGfman and Sterley had a dif- t-cuity about a year ago. when Steriey shot Coffman with a piss tol, lnf.cting a flesh wound. Coffman stoutly denies his guilt.

HISTORY OF THE BILL.

The new tariff law will be known in history as the Payne bill, taking its name from the chairman of the house committee of ways and means, the Hon. Sereno F. Payne of New York, who also had a part in framing the Mckinley and Dingley acts. Actually 1t should perhaps be called the Payne Aldrich bill, as the chairman of the senate finance committee has had quite as much to do with dictating it's final provisions as Mir. Payne. On this line of reasoning. however, there are those who insist that it should be called the Taft bill, as the hand of the president has been seen in all the moves that have shaped it from the days of the Republican national convention that nominated him and adopted plank for tariff revision up until the hour of the final fight in conference committee, when the big man in the White House made his historic fight for free raw
