FAMOUS TUNNEL CAVES IN.
Traffic on the Denver and Rio
Grande Impeded by Accident

DENVER, Col. May 1S.-Nearly five
hundred feet of the famous tunnel in
Tennessee pass on the Denver and Rio
Grande railway. located about five miles
west of Leadville. caved in last night.
The tunnel is known to tourists all the
world over. The cave-in occurred about
1000 feet from the portal of the tunnel.
probably at one of three airshafts that
reach up through the tunnel roof. and un-
doubtedly was caused by the melting Of
the extremely heavy SHOWS. Although
heavily timbered throughout. the tunnel
was always carefully watched and precau-
tions had been doubled during the last
few weeks.
Traffic of the Denver and Rio Grande
will be taken care of by the Colorado
Midling railway.
At the Offices of the chief engineer of
the Denver and Rio Grande railway it was
stated today that traffic through the tun-
mel will probably be restored within forty
eight hours.

CHANGES IN THE TARIFF BILL
TWO PARAGRAPHS RELATING
TO ZINC REDRAFTED.
Action Taken by the Finance Com
mittee-Senator Smoot to Re-
port Amendment.

After considering for nearly two weeks
the controversy between zinc producers
and smelters, the Senate committee on
finance today decided to redraft the two
paragraphs of the tariff bill fixing duties
on zinc ore and pig zinc. Amendments
were completed which will be introduced
in the Senate by Senator Smoot
Instead of making zinc ore and calamine
dutiable at I cent per pound on the
zinc contained therein, the different quail
ties of ore, according to the amount OF
zinc they contain, are assessed proper
tionately. Zinc-behring ore containing
less than 20 per cent of zinc is made dutia-
BILE at one-fourth of q cent pound on the
zinc it contains; containing more than
20 and less than 25 per cent of zinc. half
cent. between % per cent and 30 per cent.
three-fourths of a cent: and more than 20
per cent of zinc. l cent a pound. This
amendment proposes considerable reduc-
tion over the rate as established by the
House and reported originally from the
Senate committee on finance.
The rate on zinc I'm blocks or pigs is in
creased from l cent to IA cents a pound.
The rate on zinc in sheets Is increased
from IL to IL cents. and in sheets coated
or plated with nickel or other metal or
solutions from 11s cents to 1a cents. No
change is made on old and worn-out zinc
fit only to be manufactured. which is
made dutiable at / cent pound.
Cement Paragraph Redrafted.
Senator Smoot will introduce also an
amendment, which has the Endorsement
of the committee, redrafting the para
graph relating to cement 1t makes no
change in the rate of 20 cents a ton on
crude plaster rock or gypsum or the rates
on ground or calcined gypsum or pearl
hardening Instead of an ad valorem
rate of 80 per cent on keenes cement,
or other cement of which gypsum is the
component material of chief value, stand.
ards and values are fixed as follows: IL
valued at $l5 a ton or less, % q ton; IL
valued above SIS and not above $50 ton.
$40. and if valued above $50 the duty is
fixed at $14.
New Glass Classification.
On behalf of the committee, Senator
McCumber will introduce the new classi-
fication on window glass. Members of
the committee, under the direction of
Mr.. McCumber, have had this amendment
under consideration for more than
week The paragraph relating TO win
dow glass has been entirely redrafted,
and the rate on common window glass
has been reduced half cent a pound.
This is regarded as a very material re-
duction on the quality Of glass In COM
mon use for building purposes. The
amendment makes an increase OF ABOUT
one-uuarter of cent a pound In the
finer quality of window glass, which Is
used almost entirely for picture tramihs.
Very little of this quality of glass IS
manufactured in the United States, and
the amendment is intended as revenue
producer.

but two children. a son and daughter.

left no direct descendants and none OF

willow pattern breakfast plate. which
originally belonged to President Fillmore.
and came into their possession with the
requirement OF the property. to the White
House collection. and these are the pieces
which were placed in the cabinets to-
day.
An even more valuable gift is expected

Thank the Commissioners.
Resolutions were adopted at meeting
of the Woman's Interdenominational Mis-
sionary Union held yesterday in the Lu-
ther Memorial Chapel, Thomas circle,
thanking the commissioners for the ef-
forts they were making in the line OF
having strict censorship of billboards.
etc. 1t was pointed out that the MEM
bers of the union deeply appreciate the
work of the Commissioners looking TO-
ward a cleaner type of posters on the bill
boards OF the city.
About year ago the members of the
union sent a special committee 10 Presf-
dent Roosevelt protesting against certain
posters on the billboards, and at his suR-
gestion the committee met the Commis-
soners. At that time protest was made
not only against many posters, but also
against allowing the five-cent theaters to
show certain pictures which members OF
the committee did not think would tend
to elevate the morals of those who at
tended.
In speaking of this latter matter this
morning. Mrs. John Newton CNbertson.
president of the union. said that several
members Of the committee had recently
visited a number of theaters In question
and found that the Objectionable features
had been eliminated from the programs.
