new tariff commission or board, which
is to assist him in the execution Of
the new tariff law, with especial refer
ence to applying the maximum and
minimum clauses to nations which
are unfriendly or friendly in their re-
lations with the United States.
The new board consists of three
members-Professor Henry G. Emery
of Yale, chairman; James B. Reynolds
of Massachusetts, now Assistant Sec
rotary of the Treasury, and Alvin II.
Sanders, of Chicago, at present editor
and proprietor of the Breeders Ga
zette. In announcing the selection of
this new board, authorized by the
Payne tariff bill, the following state
ment was given out at the executive
offices in Beverly, Mass: The Presl-
dent and the Secretary of the Treas
ury have agreed upon the plan that
these gentlemen are to constitute the
board and are to be given authority to
employ such special experts as may be
needed in the investigation of the for
eign and domestic tariff
The announcement followed con-
ference between the President and
Secretary MacVeagh. Mr.. Taft had
left entirely in the hands of the Sec
rotary the selection of the new com

Mystery surrounds the shooting and

Sprague, a machinist, who came TO
Cincinnati from Williamsburg, o., and
his bride of two weeks is being held
by the police on suspicion. The shoot
ing occurred in the sleeping room oc-
cupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Sprague at 225
West Sth street The bullet entered
Sprague's right side, penetrating his
liver and lung. The location of the
wound is said to be an unusual one
to be self-infiicted. and this, taken
with the fact that there were blood
spots on Mrs. Sprague's night robe,
caused the police to place a charge of
suspicion against her. Mrs. Sprague
said she was awakened by the shot
and found her husband huddled up in
a corner OF the bedroom in his night
clothes. She declared her husband had
no enemies, and she knew of no rea-
son why he should have shot himself
Mrs. Sprague is the daughter OF Frank

Agricultural Bureau Head Finds
Soil Is Not Wearing Out.
Soils of the United States are not
wearing out and the crop yields are in
creasing rather than decreasing. These
facts are demonstrated in bulletin
shortly to be issued by the bureau of
soils of the agricultural department in
Washington. prepared by Professor
Milton Whitney, chief of the bureau.
The bulletin deals exhaustively with
the yields of crops from 1867 to 1906
inclusive. I'VE are producing more
crops per acre than formerly" said
Professor Whitney. This is undoubt-
eddy due to better and more intelligent
cultivation, more and better systems
of rotation of crops and in later years
to the intelligent use of fertilizers
through measures of control in the
hands of every individual farmer"
