Elizabeth Brennan, nineteen years Of
age, of Luzerne borough, four miles
from here. was the victim Of q mys-
FERROUS outrage, the cause Of which
the police have been unable to ascer-

Miss Brennan left home to be gone
a few minutes. An hour later, when
she had not returned. her father and
brothers went to look for her. and
found her gagged and tied to a tree
some distance from the house. Her
face had been scratched and bruised,
but she had not been otherwise as
saulted. She was unconscious and has
since been semi-conscious. Her condi-
ton is due to extreme fright and ner-

making the unamended rules Of the
SiXtieth congress applicable to those
OF the present congress.
The call Of the roll on the resolution
was followed with intense interest
As analysed by parliamentarians the
amendment makes three important
changes First il establishes a "cal-
fudar for unanimous consents" the eff
feet Of which is TO enable a member
to have a proposition brought before
the house without having TO go to the
speaker for recognition. This change,
they say win be a relief to the
speaker Second. when consideration
OF a bill is concluded and the previous
question is ordered the rules hereto
fore have provided for a motion to
commit with or without instructions.
It has been the practice to recognize
a member OF the majority party to
make this motion and thus prevent
the minority from offering such IN
as it may desire. The new
rule gives the minority the preference
IN making such a motion, and thus
enables them to get a record vote on
which would otherwise be
settled in committee of the whole
house, where no record vote Is pos
sible. Third. it protects the calendar
by requiring a two-thirds
instead Of a majority vote to set it
aside Fourth it is also claimed that
the amendment will have the effect OF
favoritism by the action of
the committee on rules in special
cases.
A prominent feature Of the Clark .
resolution was an amendment proyid- I
Ing for a committee of fifteen members
10 revise. amend and codify the rules. /
and much Of the opposition to It was
because OF this fact As adopted the
amendment makes no
change in the present method of the
selection Of the committee on rules,
which Is made by the speaker. nor is
here any change in the method OF Sc
Getting committees.
The election OF house officers pre-
seded the action on the rules. WIKI
plenty of votes to spare, Joseph G.
Cannon, Of Illinois. was reelected the
speaker, receiving 204 votes as against

says That the Party Is Pledged 70
Tariff Revision and Refers to In
ausural Address For Principles Upon
Which, In His Judgment, the Rsvis-
don Should Proceed.
Washington, March 17.-President
Taft's message pointing out the ne
cessity for a revision Of the tarih was
read in both branches Of congress and
met with prolonged applause from the
Republicans. The message in full fol-
lows:
Il have convened the congress IN
this extra session in order to enable
It to give immediate consideration to
the revision of the Dingley tariff act.
Conditions affecting production. manu-
facture and business generally have so
changed in the last twelve years as to
require a readjustment and revision
OF the import duties imposed by that
act. More than this, the present tariff
act, with the other sources of govern
ment revenue, does not furnish income
enough to pay the authorized expendi-
lures. BY July ] next the excess Of ex-
penditures over receipts for the cur
rent fiscal year will equal 100000 900.
THE successful party in the late
election is pledged to a revision of the
tariff The country. and the business
community especially. expect 1t. The
prospect Of a change in the rates Of
import duties always causes a suspen-
sion or halt in business because of the
uncertainty as to the changes to be
made and their effect It IS therefore,
OF the highest importance that the new
bill should be agreed upon and passed
with as much speed as possible, con [
sistent with its due and thorough con- .
sideration For these reasons / have |
deemed the present to be an extraor- /
binary occasion. within the meaning (

fn a summary way the principles upon
which in my judgment, the revision
Of the tariff should proceed, and indi-
Gated at least one new source Of reve-
nue. that might be properly resorted

is not necessary for me to repeat what
] then said
Il venture to suggest that the vital
interests Of the country re-
quire that the attention OF the congress
in this session be chiefly devoted to
the consideration Of the new tariff
