UNDIVIDED DEMOCRATS.

Washington, Aug. G.-Champ Clark democratic leader in the house, issued statement today regarding the course of the democratic members of the house in connection with the tariff bill The reply is to what he terms misrepresentation of democrats in the newspapers"
 Clark says that notwithstanding, all republican newspapers to the contrary the democrats came out of the tariff fight more thoroughly united on that question than they have been in a generation, and that the republicans are worse shattered than ever.
 All the democrats voted to recommit the Payne bill except four, which is more nearly a unanimous democratic vote on the tariff than has been in the past generation. Twenty repub- Iicans voted with the democrats and the regular republican majority of 45 was cut to only ,.
 Clark also said the claims that the Payne tariff bill is a revision down ward is absolutely false. He said it will average two per cent higher and when the maximum goes into effect it will be 27 per cent higher than the Dingley tariff rates.

ANOTHER PROJECT IN DISPUTE

LONDON, Aug. 6.-The question of equal control in the construction of the Hankow Sze Cheun railway is now occupying the attention of internation- al bankers interested in the line. It was announced today that it was un- derstood here that America considers it important that she should have an equal voice in appointing the engineers in charge of the construction as on their advice the rolling stock will be purchased.
 This matter was previously arranged by the European bankers, and it was understood that America had no ob jection. Recently, however. the ques- tion was raised by America, and while the Anglo French interests agree on allowing all the powers equal control, the German financiers are offering some opposition.
 It was proposed to subject the Rus sian question of control of municipal along the Russian railroad area in Manchuria, which arose through Am erica's objection to the original Rus sian plan to the foreign consuls on the spot for adjustment

Several of the Things That
 May Happen to Him HIS MOTHER 4 WITNESS
Expresses Her Sentiments Toward District Attorney Jerome-Her Excuse for Obliquities of Her Son Two Experts Ruffied.

White Plains, Aug. 6.-H. K. Thaw's latest struggle to regain his freedom will end tomorrow. The submission of testimony in his hearing before Justice Mills closed today and all that remains is the final arguments of the attorneys. Justice Mills will file his decision with the county clerk on Thursday August 19.
 Several possibilities confront Thaw. The court may grant his plea and make him absolutely free. It may de- eide that he has not established his sanity and refuse to interfere, in which case, the state authorities will probably send him back to Matteawan hospital for the criminal insane. But Justice Mills has further discretionary powers. He may feel that Thaw's mental condition is still in doubt and for that reason may delay a final order. meanwhile paroIing Thaw in the custody of some officer or possibly on his own recOgnizance in the charge of his family Or he may declare Thaw insane. but moved by his moth CTS complaint regarding his surround ings at Matteawan, send him to some other state hospital not peopled with criminals.
 The evidence presented in behalf of Thaw, closed with a dramatic out burst by his mother, Mrs. Mary Cop ley Thaw. Her last words were a de- nouncement of District Attorney Jerome Earlier in the day she had read a list of names distinguished in New York society. They were guests. she said, at dinner she gave in New York which Harry attended before his marriage "I brought in the names of those who attended that dinner to my son." she said. because of the statements of Jerome regarding the company Harry was accustomed to keep"
 ''I do not have any especial enmity toward Jerome. but he certainly has not behaved in this matter in a gen tlemanly way, or in a Christian way. Jerome always talked about Harry's being a frequenter of the tenderloin, when he knows as well as any one that my boy never went to the tender lOin until he met a certain person" Mrs. Thaws testimony was frequently interrupted by sobbing, as she de- scribed Harry's surroundings at Mat teawan.
 The greater part of the day was de- voted to a re-examination of Thaw's alienists. Jerome attacked the experts with every device of the skilled cross examiner he reused the ire of Dr. Britton D. Evans by asking him if he was the subject of denunciation of medical expert witnesses. delivered yesterday by Governor Franklin Fort of New Jersey. Dr. Evans is super intendent of the New Jersey state in sane hospital at Morris Plains. The expert replied that he declined to go into personalities.
 Dr. Isham G. Harris of the Pough- keepsie state asylum also received grilling Both alienists stuck to their assertion that whatever Thaws men tai condition might have been when he shot Stanford White, he was now sane. They left the stand unshaken.

STOCKS UNAFFECTED
 BY THE TARIFF LAW
The Expected Realizing Movement
 Did Not Occur.

New York Aug. 6.-The rise in prices today had the appearance of q fighting in the market from the dip of yesterdays close. There was. in fact, considerable re-buying of stocks sold short by the professional element yesterday on the assumption that the enactment of the tariff law would be followed by a movement to realize profits No such realizing movement developed today and the uncovered bears were prompted to cover their short contracts. St. Paul rose above $121 for the first time since 1906. There was much discus sion of the probable possibilities of traffic on the Pacific coast exten- sion system, for which a large growth is predicted United States Steers rise to 76%s and Union Pacific to 203 made new high record prices for those stocks and helped mate rially the strong closing tone. Bonds were firm; total sales, $5 S72,0O0. United States bonds unchanged.

THE PAYNE TARIFF BILL
 SUITS VICE PRESIDENT
GIVES CREDIT FOR IT TO MIR.
 TAFT.
He Thinks it will Prove Acceptable to
 the Country.

Utica, Aug. 6.-Vice President Sher- man returned home tonight. Speak ing of the new tariff, he said: "The final result in the tariff measure was reached with apparent good feeling. This was largely due to the tact of the president who accomplished won ders in harmonizing the opposing forces.
 "The schedules as adopted, reaffirm the protective principle. There was no likelihood at any time that it would be overthrown or abandoned. Where rates have been advanced they apply to luxuries. On practically all other articles, the tendency has been downward where changes have been made.
 The new law as a whole will be acceptable I think, and now that the tariff question has been definitely settled l look for renewed activity in all lines of business and a return of general prosperity"

Japan VIII Proceed With Man.
 Churian Railway THE POWERS NOTIFIED
Having Failed to Secure Consent of China, Japan csc Will Proceed to Re construct the Antung- Mukden Line Anyhow.

Tokia. Aug. 6-In a commGnication issued today Japan officially notified the powers of her intention to proceed immediately with the reconstruction and improvement of the Antung- Muk den railroad without the consent of China, diplomatic negotiations having failed to overcome the opposition of that country to the commencement of a work which Japan believes to be within her rights under the treaty of 1907.
 The climax of the protracted con troversy between Japan and China over the Antung- MUkden line was not entirely unexpected. The highest au thorities do not believe, however, that Japan's action indicates anything ap- preaching war with China.
 The proposed work of improvement will be begun soon, plans having been prepared in detail when the project was first brought forward. The first step will be the reconstruction of the old military road linking the terminus of the Korean standard gauge line at Wiju with the line of the South Man churian railway at or near Mukden.
 Japan will thus be brought one day nearer to Europe via the Siberian rail road and Korea It will be opened by through line to the commerce of the world. Foreign office officials de- clare that China will not actively op- pose the work of reconstruction. Ne gotiations continue, it is said. regard- ing certain details relative to the fI- true control of the reOrganiZed line.

ReappeaPaRce of Dead Lieu tenants Mother as Witness
 HER ACCUSING LETTERS
To Be Read Today Against Protests of Her Counsel Witness Says the Sui eide of Sutton Would Have Been Difficult.

Annapolis, Aug 6.-The reappear- ance on the witness stand today of Mrs. James N. Sutton. mother of Lieutenant Sutton. whose death is be- ing investigated by the naval board of inquiry was the signal for a heated controversy between the lawyers, which ended in a prolonged conference and brought the days proceedings to an abrupt end. Judge Advocate Leon ard offered for Identification and to be read m evidence several letters which he said Mrs. Sutton had written con taining serious charges against off cers of the marine corps who appeared as defendants.
 "The United States has been put to a large expense in bringing witnesses here from all parts of the world" said Major Leonard, and it becomes my painful duty to offer these letters in evidence in order to enlighten the court as fully as possible on all mat ters pertaining to this inquiry"
 Henry F. Davis, counsel for Mrs. Sutton. objected on the grounds that Mrs. Sutton was not present and he urged that the letters be not read. At this point Commander Hood, president of the board. ordered the court closed and went into conference with his as sociates and the judge advocate. Later Commander Hood announced that the letters would be read in closed court tomorrow to the interested parties and their counsel
 Following the completion of Lieu Far raf TTfHar-fc- geon T. F. Cook, was a witness. He testified that he performed the autop- sy on Sutton's body and he declared from the nature of the wound that it would have been difficult for him to shoot himself holding the revolver in an ordinary manner. He added how ever, that it was his belief that Sut- ton committed suicide.

eRApsTREET's HOPEFUL

New York, Aug. -Bradstreets will say: With the advent of August. the new tariff has become an accomplish ed fact, leading crops are assuming a more tangible form with some temper ing of the earlier exuberant estimates: High premiums on the old supply of farm products are disappearing and the usual fall buyers excursions are bringing purchasers to the leading markets.
 There is also noted this year what was absent for two preceding years, a growing scarcity of labor. That the general business situation is es- sentially sound. is also evidenced by the comparatively small number of business suspensions and the light monthly failure of liabilities compared with those witnessed for three years past
