HOUSE ADJOURNS
 UNTIL THURSDAY

Washington, July 27.-After a session of 49 minutes the House adjourned un- til Thursday, at which time it is ex- pected that the much talked of reso- lution authorizing the tariff conferees to reduce the rates on leather and leath- CT goods below those of the Payne bill will be brought in and acted on.
 When the proposition to adjourn over Wednesday was submitted by MT. Payne some laughter was created by MT Clark, the minority leader, remark ing that he was being "deviled to death" for information as to when the dem- ocratic conferees were to be called in. "If you can tell me I'll tell you," was the only consolation he got from MT. Payne.
 MT Tawney of Minnesota aroused the House to a high pitch of excitement when he denounced Dr. Charles Rich ard Van IIise, president of the Uni versity of Wisconsin. for having, as MT. Tawney said, made false charges against him regarding his attitude on the con- servation of the national resources.

Greater Birmingham Bill Will Be introduced Tomorrow
PETTUS COUNTY MEASURE
Representatives John and Fuller Race To Get in Bills To prohibit Sale and Use of Pistols and Dirks.
 Other Live Measures.

Montgomery, July 27.-(Special)- The fight to break up the fee system, whereby many county officers make enormous salaries, and as a result of which the ill-informed are often i'm posed upon, was begun in the house today when MT. Glover of Jefferson presented bill looking to amendment to the constitution providing that counties may put officers on salary when 1t is thought best.
 The Greater Birmingham bill will be presented Thursday in both houses. Representative King of Jefferson is confident that it will pass, many as- surances of support having been re- ceived
 The new counties fight was sprung in a bill to establish Pettus county with Bessemer as the county seat. Rep resentative Ragsdale. though i'll and weak, was present to enter the bill
 MT. Fuller of Bibb and MT. John of Jefferson raced in the house to pre- ing all of less than 20 inches length and MT. John in line with his old law, putting the shortest at 24 inches. Dirks, bowie knives, slingshots, etc., are prohibited either to own or sell by both measures. MT. John found that the law provided no way for divorce when parties marry under age and put in a bill to remedy it. He also introduced bills to re-enact the child labor law, provide for proper keeping of records, and compulsory education.
 MT. Fuller would prevent publication of the name of any girl or woman the victim of criminal assault, and also exempt witnesses in liquor cases from prosecution.
 MT. Glover seeks to prevent stealing of truck garden products about Bir- mingham by making such grand lar ceny and also would eliminate the re- quirement of assignment of errors when cases originate in the municipal courts.
 MT. Long presented the railroad bills They provide for making steamboats common carriers, exempt railroad em- ployes from anti-frank rules of ex- press companies, repeal the penalty acts for failure to keep the rate acts, provide for increasing the power of the railroad commission and the at- torney general by restoring the right to enforce the order of the commis- sion.
 An additional $5o.00O for the rate litigation is included in a bill by MT. Long.
 MT. Peete would stop exposure of nude pictures In public places, and Mir. Martin wants a tax of $1 head on dogs.
 In MT. Johns bill to provide for cor rect record no change Is contemplated in the official force as it now stands, the idea being to require of each clerk or assistant heavy bond for perform ance of duty and lay heavy penalty for failure to make the record correct.

House Wins Fight Among the Conferees on Revision
LUMBER STILL PAYS DUTY
Oil Is Put on Free List, While Coal Is Placed at AS Gents a Ton, Iron Ore IS Gents and Print
 Paper $3.5o a Ton.

Washington, July N.-From the best in- formation obtainable tonight it appears that the House has won it's battles for free hides and oil, and inceased rates on gloves and hosiery, in return for sur render to the Senate on lumber, coal, iron ore and print paper
 The rates on these schedules as they have been tentatively arranged, pending the acceptance by both houses of the pro- gramme for a reduction in the duties on manufactures of leather below the rates fixed by the House are as follows:
 Oil, free.
 Hides, free.
 Coal, 45 cents a ton.
 Print paper, $3.50 ton.
 Iron ore, Is cents ton.
 Lumber, rough, s1.50 a thousand; one side finished, $2; two sides finished, g. 25; three sides finished. which may include tonguing and growing, $2.621s; four sides finished, s3.
 Gloves, A dozen pairs, not exceeding IA inches in length, which is the standard length; exceeding IA inches, S5 cents per dozen is added for each inch. This rate does not apply to the Schmaschen or cheap glove. on which the Senate rate of H. .25 per dozen pairs is retained. The lat ter rate Is reduction from the Dingley rates, but the House rates accepted on the higher grades of gloves represent heavy increases over existing duties.
 Hosiery, valued at s1 or less per dozen pairs, 70 cents, as against the Senate and existing rate of 50 cents. On values up to s2 the rate is slightly in excess of ex- isting duties and a shading below the rates fixed by the House. On the highest grades the Senate and House rates were Identical.
 Week of WrangIing.
 For nearly a week the question of put ting hides on the free list or imposing a nominal duty upon them has been be- fore the conference Not even a nominal duty proved acceptable to Representative Payne, whose position was strengthened by the support of President Taft, and the Senate was compelled to yield in spite of the fact that free hides threat ened to provoke insurrection among stand pat" senators from cattle raising states It appears, however, that MT. Payne's victory was a costly one, inas-
  feated on coal, print paper, iron ore and lumber.
 Although new oaths of secrecy were taken by every member of the confer ence committee before todays session was adjourned. it s well known that the foregoing rates represent the understand ing that has been reached on all the subjects which engaged the active atten- ton during the last few weeks. As the House passed the bill, coal was made dutiable at 67 cents a ton, with slack at the same rate, but reciprocal provision had the effect of putting coal on the free list The Senate contended for a duty on coal and compromise of 45 cents a ton was accepted in lieu of the House rate and the free reciprocal agreement Slack was made dutable at 15 cents a ton.
 The House put iron ore on the free list and the Senate fixed the rate at 25 cents a ton. but the conferees agreed to accept rate of 15 cents.
