Of TARIFF BILL
IS CONCLUDED
UNEXPECTED BURST OF SPEED
is SHOWN BY cONFEREES AT
THE NIGHT SESsIoN-AcTUAL
STRUGGLE NOW BEGINS.
by Associated Press.

Washington, July Ian unexpect-
ed burst of speed was exhibited by
tariff conferees tonight and the first
consideration of the bill was COM
pleted. This includes all schedules
and the free list, AS a result when
tOmOTrow's session begins the actual
struggle over the important differ
ences between the house and senate
will be Opend in earnest.
THE DAY SESSION.
By passing over the cotton and
wooden schedules without taking up
any amended paragraphs, and skipping
disputed points connected with the
rates on lumber in the wood schedule,
the tariff conferees were able today
to dispose of about four hundred
amendments during the days session.
This number, however, includes sub
jects settled tentatively on Monday
and Saturday.
Many important subjects, such as
the house drawback feature of the al
cohol paragraph, rates on oil cloth and
various items under the head OF litho-
graphs were submitted to the sub
cOnfereeS. Conferees are making
every effort to prevent the advance
publication of any decision reached by
the conferees, regardless of how I'M
important are the questions deter
mined. .-

BRYAN ADDRESSES LETTER
TO PRESIDENT TAFT

Lincoln, Neb., July 13.-William j.
Bryan today addressed a letter to
President Taft asking him to allow
the people to vote in popular election
of senators. Mr.. Bryan says:
president Taft:
Now that the states are going to
vote on the ratification of the amend
ment specifically authorizing an in
come tax, why not give them chance
to vote on an amendment providing
for the election of United States SEN
ators by popular vote? In your speech
OF acceptance you said that you were
personally inclined to favor such a
change in the constitution. Would not
this be an oppOTtune time to present
the subject to congress? Two con .
stitutional amendments, one author
izing income taxes and the other pro-
viding for the popular election OF sen
ators would make your administration
memorable, and pledge you whatever
assistance | can render in securing
the ratification of these amendments.
with great respect, l am,

ANALYSIS by Professor George a. Fer
guson, Of Columbia University, has
detected the presence of poison in the

dence submitted to the police that a
Chinaman tried to buy poison at a
drug store near the Chinese restau-
rant over which the girl was muir

the poison was made on the day be

attempt to escape.
Questioned by Mr.. Morchauser,
Thaw's counsel, the witness said he
had never known of Thaw attempting
to escape and had no fear that he
would try to get away.
W. w. Smith, of Poughkeepsie,
who is over sixty years old, and who
admitted hesitatingly that he was
known in Poughkeepsie as philan-
tkropist, testified that he had met
Thaw on two OF three occasions and
talked with him on religious topics.
He told me he was PRESBYTERIAN
and we talked about the Bible and
about Christ's sympathetic attitude
towards sinners Mr.. Thaw appeared
to be very well read and to have a
good knowledge of the Bible. His
conversation was very rational.
Otto Metz, a New York court officer
and former keeper in the TOmbs pris-
on, testified he frequently talked pol
itics with Thaw.
He certainly convinced me that
the silver question and Organism
would be a bad thing for the coun-
try" said the witness.
Deputy Attorney General Clark OBJ
jected to the answer and Justice
Mills instructed the witness to con-
fine himself to the actual converse

fyins, the dignity and Solemnity of
the court proceedings were COnsid-

Mr.. Hudson said he had had four
or Eve hours conversation with Thaw
all told, principally on railroad mat
tiers.
ITO tell you the truth of the mat
ter" said the witness, Il wanted to
find out whether or not he was insane
and asked him all kinds OF questions
to draw him out"
Thaw and the judge Joined in the
general laugh which this unsolicited
statement created.
The witness said Thaw showed a
remarkable knowledge of railroading.
81 have probably met more men in
my life than any man in this court
rCom," Mr.. Hudson volunteered, land
have had a pretty good schooling IN
human nature, and have seen many
insane men, but there was nothing ir-
rational about Thaw."
On cross examination District At
torney Mack wanted to know Of the
witness if Thaw had ever touched
upon the killing of Standard White in
their conversations. %
The witness said not, but that he
personally believed it was an act OF
Providence"
'Why didn't you question Thaw
about that?" asked Mr.. Mack.
