TAFT SAYS He WILL
NOT NAME TARIFF
COMMISSION
WILL CALL EXTRA SESSION OF
CONGRESS TO MEET MARCH IS
TO REVISE PRESENT TARIFF
SCHEDULE.

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-Definite an
nonncement was made by President
elect Taft today from the home OF his
Brother. No. SO West Forty -eighth-st.,
where he has been stopping, that he
would call an extra session OF congress
Immediately after his Inauguration. to
meet March Is. for the revision OF the
tariff
IL was stated by Mr.. Taft that this
was now understood in Washington by
the several Republican leaders In the
senate and the house and that they
would see To II that things were made
ready In the national legislature for
the immediate revision of the tariff in
that body.
The president-elect stated that he
still considered immediate tariff re-
vision absolutely necessary. He was
led TO make this statement after the
visit of TWO representatives OF an In
dianapolis committee of 100 who rec
commended that he appoint tariff re-
vision commission TO determine what
! part of the present Dingley law should
ne modified before congress took any
action
Mr.. Taft let II be known that he dill
not favor this sort of tariff revision
commission. There would be no APP
poirtment OF such commission, he
said because IL would cause only de-
lag. What was wanted, he added, was
the immediate change of the present
tariff laws.
In spite OF reports from Chiacgo, APP
parenty confirming the prospective APP
pointment OF Franklin MacVeagh as
secretary Of the treasury in the next
cabinet. Mr.. Taft refused to add his
oonfi nation today and indicated plain
~ that this post was far from decided
upon as yet.

BOARD OF COMMERCE MEMBERS
RESENT STATEMENT THAT
THEY'RE BUTTING IN IN CALL
ING RECIPROCITY CONVENTION.

Statements made by the directors OF
the Wholesalers association, intimat-
Ing that the Board OF Commerce has
"butted in on the wholesalers plans
by calling n conference on freer trade
relations with Canada. In April. are
met by denials from the Board OF Com
merce. There is considerable feeling
about the matter just now. however.
and some OF the wholesalers have
gone SO far as to threaten TO leave
the Board Of Commerce.
The Board OF Commerce took up
this matter six years ago." stated one
of the officers of that body. I'VE haG
a committee headed by John Ballan-
tyne, which took II up and the mat
ter has never been lost sight Of. This
spring appeared to be the best time
for doing something, sentiment having
become favorable to tariff revision.
Therefore the conference was called.
The Wholesalers association may
have intended to hold a conference
on the same subject. but II had never
notified the Board Of Commerce OF
that intention. An attempt to show
that the Wholesalers had done so IL
attempted by use OF letter OF Dec.
IA. This letter referred to resolutions
passed by the Wholesalers on the mat
ter. That did not convey the informa-
ton to lis that q conference was In
tended. The Wholesalers pass resolu-
lions and then do nothing.
THE Board Of Commerce has had
this matter in mind for long time.
and the Wholesalers were notified tina,
we would feature the issue soon, the
first intention being TO get j. j. Hill
and A. b. Cummins here for the jan
uary meeting. This had to be abandon
ed. Affidavits can be made. II neces-
sary. that the Wholesalers never no
tilted the Board OF Commerce by let
ter or word Of their intention. The
tariff IL an issue that cannot be copy
righted, anyway"
One of the reasons which led the
BOARD of Commerce to conference
for April was the desire to get senti-
ment started so that the United States
may have an opportunity to share In
the minimum tariff of the Dominion.
Gov. Warner has consented to open
the conference and has made the fur,

each of the border states be asked

HOUSE ADJOURN
AFTER SESSION Of
e HOURS
DENIS. OFFER AMENDMENTS TO
EVERY ITEM READ BUT WORK
CONTINUES ON CIVIL suNpRY
APPROPRIATION MEASURE.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-At 500
this morning the house OF representa-
tives took a recess until later In the
morning, having been In continuous
session from 10 o'clock yesterday
morning. The bill under considera-
ton was the civil sundry appropria-
ton measure. and as the hours OF
night wore along, the Democrats tried
to force an adjournment by Offering
amendments to every item read. This
delayed the progress of the work. but
did not exhaust the patience of the
Republicans and a great deal was ac-
complished.
At any rate, not man, 30 far as
could be ascertained, was enjoying
himself or earning his salary except
Mr.. Williams. who was doing all the
talking.
At 10 o'clock yesterday morning the
house entered Into session, innocent
of what was expected OF II. None OF
the members had suspicion that
there was to be an all.night session,
without sleep, drink, or sandwiches,
or even crackers.
The bill In question was taken up
two days ago and its passage is OF
much importance, because of the fact
that the present congress OF the Unit.
ed States Is about To end his career.

Attorney Harry f. Chapman. Edward

Back in 1880, O-ShawWaw-No and

WATERLOO FOR THE ADMINS.
TRATiON GANG.

The largest vote ever cast In an
election OF school inspectors will be
out next Monday. according to the pre-
dictions OF all who have made a study
OF the conditions this year. A large
vote will be favorable to the anti.Mar-
tindale party, and the outlook Is, there
fore, for radical change in the make
up OF that board.
AS there may be difficulty In ac-
commodating all the voters, II will be
necessary for those who can to vote
early In the day. Women voters, es-
pecially, should try to vote during the
middle OF the morning. and the after
noon as there will not then be 80 much
crowding In the booths. In many pre-
cincts the vote is expected to be larg-
er than that of last fall on account OF
the number of women voters partici-
pating.
The last days of the fight are live
lier than in any previous spring. Team
work is being shown OH both sides. In
spectors Burton and Goldberg have
spoken in every ward where there is
an election In behalf of the anti Mar
tindale cause, while the Martindale in
spectors have also helped each other
I'm the same way.
Rumors Of possible attempts to use
some Of the precinct boards to con-
troll the election by marking the bal
lots Of illiterate voters for Martindale
men are current. To prevent this, the
reform party will ask Police Commits
sioner Smith To detail his best men to
these districts. Challengers will also
be placed in every booth to see that
the law is obeyed regarding the voting
of illiterates.
