DUTY ON COFFEE
MAY Be IMPOSED
Ways and Means Committee Needs to
Offset Cuts" to Be
Made.
THE DUTY TO YIELD $45,OOO,OOO.

Philippines Infant Industries
Might Benefit by Action
HE DUTY TO YIELD $45,OOO,OOO.

HERALD BUREAU, WASHINGTON, |
duty on foreign raised coffee of from
five to six cents pound as an offset
for cutting duties on iron aud steel,
lumber, hides, wood pulp, and print
paper, coal and works of art, has been
resumed quietly with the House Com
mittee on Ways and Means by close
students of the tariff schedules. The
suggestion may have some weight with
the committee confronted on one size
with a demand for a tariff revision
which will be reduction, and on the
other hand with increasing eXtrava-
gances in the federal administration,
reduction of the revenues and reficit
in the treasury.
1t is estimated that the proposed duty
on coffee, based on last years figures
of importations, will amount to $45,-
100000 annually while the combined
loss of revenue from the articles pro-
posed to be cut, based on the same
figures compiled by the Bureau of Sta
tistics, would be only $26,000,0OO. 1t
is believed here that the committee
may compromise the situation by levy
ing a duty on coffee while, at the same
time reducing the duty on the pro-
posed free articles to the point where,
by increased importation, they will
produce even more revenue than at
present. Puerto Rico coffee is, of course
to be exempt and the planters of that
island are working to get the duty
imposed.
WOULD AFFECT BRAZIL.
The remand for duty on coffee is
not based wholly on revenue producing
argument, but on the further ground
that South American countries which
now furnish most of the coffee consum-
ed in the United States, amounting to
SIS, 100000 annually, contribute in re-
turn only a small share of their eX-
port trade from the United States. In
the case of Brazil, which last year eX-
ported to the United States coffee and
India rubber to the value of $97 100000,
it is pointed out the United States sold
in return less than $2O,0O00O0, leaving
balance of trade of nearly $SO,OOO,OOO
in favor of that country. With duty
on coffee, say those who favor it, the
United States, under a maximum and
minimum tariff schedule, will be in a
position to demand a reduction of the
Brazilian duties of, perhaps fifty per
cent, in return for like reduction OF
its own duty on coffee. When the
United States took off the duty on

coffee Brazil Immediately put on an
export duty of five cents a pound.
Furthermore, it is urged that for the
first time in it's history the United
States can begin coffee raising in it's
island possessions, which would make
of that industry an infant well worth
protection. 1t has been demonstrated
that Porto Rico, Hawaii, Guam and the
Philippines are admirably suited for
coffee raising. Until fifteen years ago
ers of the Orient, the Philippines were
notable competitors with Java in cor
fee raising. After the blight the Fill
pinos accepted the situation as a visi-
tation from Divine Providence and
gave up the industry, while the Dutch
in Java found ways and means to over
come the blight and resumed the in
dustry. With the aid of the Departs
ment of Agriculture there is now said
to be no reason why the Philippines
should not again resume their former
place in the coffee raising industry,
where, with cheap labor, competition
can be established with any other coun-
try, which has not been possible among
the possessions of the United States
up to this time. In this connection
the success of Hawaiian competition
in the sugar industry is declared to
be an excellent illustration of what can
be done

Partisan politics is chiefly response
BILE for the failure of prosecuting at
torneys to enforce the law, is the way
Il. ]. Fleming, former prosecuting at
torney of Los Angeles, summed up his
subject in speech before the city
club yesterday.
1.-THE man does not live, who elected
10 the office of prosecuting attorney or
district attorney, by partisan politics
can go into that office and enforce the
laws impartially to rich and poor
alike" said Mr.. Fleming, with great
earneStneSS.
He also arraigned the courts for
their too strict attention to technical
tiles.
our courts attach too much i'm
portance to technicaities that do not
affect the substantial interests of lit
igants," said Mr.. Fleming. And too
many men escape jury service by eX-
cuses that are unworthy of them re-
sulting in irresponsible people taking
their places in the jury box.
Courts today adhere too strictly TO
the rules of evidence of 300 years ago
rather than to such rules as would
be applicable today"
He declared not half the members
of ar.y police force in any great city
were worth half the salaries they are
paid. They do not possess the proper
education to discharge their duties
competently, he said. He advocated
Judges and prosecutors establishing
schools of instruction where the police
could be educated to handle the cases
which come before them.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-The recovery
in prices of stocks was carried fur
ther with gathering force and ami
nation, and with large responsibility
attributed to the demand from uncov-
cred shorts for the demand which car
ried prices upward.
The speculative community pro-
fessed the usual confidence in its fore
knowledge of the contents of President
Taft's message after it had arrived at
the print. stage. The outline of the
coming message, which was accepted
as authentic in brokers' offices, had the
effect Of soothing some Of the appre-
hension felt earlier in the week as to
the manner in which topics bearing on
certain interests would be handled.
Another potent factor in quieting
apprehension on this score is the belief
that great mergers of trust companies
are contemplated by the purchase of
the Guaranty Trust company and the
Equitable Life Assurance society in
the Morgan interest this week.
The pursuance of this policy by so
prominent n figure in the financial
world is taken to indicate assurance Of
immunity from Interference and conf
dence in the feasibility of financial
consultations.
The resumption Of aggressive market
operations in United States Steel of a
concentrated character was ascribed
to the general confidence engendered
by this feeling, and had a marked
sentimental effect on the whole market.
