THAT the various branches of the in
wool schedule, all of which indicated
dustry differ as to the proper CLASH
fication and differentials to be es-
tablished in the tariff. The carpet
manufacturers declared that the
classification in the present tariff is
unjust to their industry and similar
claims were made by other manufac-
turers. There was much testimony
which shed considerable light on
the methods employed in the manu-
facture of wooden fabrics, indicat-
ing that much so-called pure wool
clothing contains considerable shod-
dy and rags. This called forth the
suggestion from Representative
Clark that there should be pure
clothing law, similar in it's objects
to the pure food law.
The admission from the Philip
pines, free of duty, Of 100000 tons
of sugar was the first proposition on
which the Ways and Means commit
tee agreed. This action was taken
by the committee following con-
ference with Mr.. Taft The state
ment by Edwin F. Atkins, of Bos-1
ton, that there was great danger of
an instruction in Cuba if the tariff
on sugar is not reduced and the
arguments made by Claus R. Spree
kles of New York in favor of re-
duction in the duty were the strik-
ing features of the hearings on the
sugar schedule Secretary of War
Wright appeared before the commit
tee in favor of free sugar from the
Philippines He declared that the
so-called sugar trust was understood
to own 81 per cent of the stock OF
the beet sugar refneries and that
that is possibly the reason why the
beet sugar industry has not grown
in this country. The Louisiana cane
sugar growers claimed that the
price to the consumer of sugar and
and the price paid to the farmer for
his product is fixed by the sugar
trust
The California fruit growers were
arrayed against the importers, and
one argument advanced by the lat
ter for reduced duties on lemons was
that the recent earthquake in Sicily
had resulted in the scarcity Of labor
and the destruction of lemon groves.
Senator Hale appeared before the
committee to ask that tapicoa flour
be specially provided for in the bill.
Similar requests were made on nu-
rous articles. The committee found
considerable information at its dis
posal in volume giving statistics
regarding imports and duties pre-
pared by William w. Evans, assis-
tant clerk of the committee. VIM.

mittee.

Major Halling Bought Tract.

Major w. H. Halling, a recent ar
rival here from Chicago, has COM
pleted the purchase of a five-acre
tract from w. r. Prowell and the
Columbia Valley bank. The land Is
all set to the best varieties of ap-

hearings given the pottery interests.
This method of collecting the duties
would permit the appraisers to call
upon witnesses in this country for
information which, under the pres
ent method of collecting ad valorem
duties is not possible. The plan
was advanced as a means for pre-
venting under valuations, of which
there has been complaint wherever
ad valorem duties have been impos-
ed Several cases of under valua-
ton were presented to the commit
tee by the pottery manufacturers,
who favored an increase in the du-
ties on the better grades of china
The importers advanced arguments
for a reduction of 25 per cent in the
duties on pottery.
AS at all former tariff hearings
there was a fight between the shoe
and leather manufacturers of New
England and the cattle raisers of
the west. The leather manufacture
ers wer loath to admit that their in
dutry could stand a reduction in the
duties on shoes and other leather ar
ticles, but urged that the raw mate
rial should be placed on the free
list. An amusing incident occurred
when one of the shoe men admitted
that with free hides the shoe man
ufacturers would be able to compete
with foreign manufacturers without
tariff protection. This caused the
leather manufacturers to assemble
their forces and present arguments
to show that the duty on the manu-
featured article. should not be reduc-
ed.
Elisha w. Cobb, a manufacturer
of heavy leather, of Boston, Mass,
told the committee that the tariff
on hides accrued only to the bene-
fit Of the packers and not to the
farmer and cattle raiser. He declar-
ed that the large packers of Chicago
are engaged in the tanning business
and look forward TO the time when
they will have complete monopoly in
the hide business and in the sole
and upper-leather business.

sion for more contention than any
other and during its consideration
there was much criticism of the
methods by which tariff bills are
framed. While William Whitman,
of Boston, representing the National
Wool Manufacturers, was on the
stand, Representative Clark, of Mis-
souri,. placed in the record pam
phlet which purported to inform the
Ways and Means Committee chow
tariff laws are framed" The name
of the author of the pamphlet was
given as Frank P. Bennett, of Bos-
ton.
THE place you get in your work
is not in the House of Representa-
tives or in the Ways and Means
Committee, but is in the senate, isn't
it?" was one of the characteristic
questions asked by Champ Clark, of
Mr.. Whitman
The wool growers of Ohio and the
western states declared emphatical-
ly to the committee that further pro-
lection must be given the industry
or the wool growing business would
be entirely wiped out The wooden
manufacturers also asked that the
present duties at least be retained
on their product There were sew

Two or three of the real estate dealers
say that they have frequently been call

Leader of Orchestra at Novelty and
COrnet Player at Majestic Wed.

A marriage in theatrical circles is
always an opening for deal of good
natured raillery on the part of other
mem bers of the cast, and that of
Samuel Caldwell, director of the or
chestra at the Novelty and Miss Edith
Leroy, cornet player at the Majestic
which was solemnized at o'clock
Thursday afternoon, was no excep-
ton.
When the couple were separated at
the courthouse where the marriage
was performed, and we're driven
through the business portion of To-
peka, the bride in an automobile, and
the husband upon the shoulders of
a moving van full of men, they per-
haps thought that good part of
what was coming had materialized.
But that proved only the begin
ming. Both the parties were at their
respective duties last night, and nu-
merous pranks were played upon
them by their friends behind the foot
lights.
Has the charming young Sister
Caldwell anything to ask in which the
advice and mediation of the ward
teachers would be of service ?" asked
the three ward-teachers- in the Ma
jestic cast, and suiting the action to
the word, dropped a pair of baby
shoes on the stage opposite the bride.
At one time or another during the
play other pranks were carried

Because I'm Married Now" reached
the ears of the audience and along
with it Caldwell received an immense
shower of rice. During the overture
the electrician threw the calcium full
upon the leader and the orchestra
played Mendelsshon's wedding march.
But the limit was reached when the
couple left their duties to go to their
home, PIG East Eighth avenue. There
they found the electric wires had been
tempered, and numerous other tricks
played upon them. The variety was
such that the couple today are certain
that theirs has been a wedding recep-
ton. although in many ways not diff
ferent from others, yet on the other
hand distinct novelty in variety.
