print paper paragraphs of the tariff
bill referred to by Senator Clapp to-
day. Aldrich indicated that the finance
committee. still had that matter under
consideration and hoped to report a
substitute that woul prove satisfactory
to all interests concerned.
This statement was in response to
a claim OF the Minnesota senator that
by the proposed retaliation against
Canada, in case that country snould
provide an export tax. the United
States would punish its own people
by adding q still greater duty.
Eliminate RetaIiatory Features.
Senator Brown, who led the recent
fight in the senate for free wood pulp
and print paper. today offered two
amendments which have the effect OF
eliminating the automatic retaliatory
features Of the committee amendment
and Of making the retaliation depend
upon an order Of the president allow
ing the rates OF duty to remain as in
the committee substitute. Aldrich
finally agreed to take up these substi-
tutes for final action tomorrow.

Paris, Pune 25.--Among the many

Taft has determined upon, the one in

bassador Henry White would like to
remain is an open secret. Mr. White
received his appointment under Presi-
dent Roosevelt two years ago, after
having been in the di' lomatic service
for a number of years.
Owing to the difference of opinion
between Ambassador White and Presi-
dent Taft some years ago the presi-
dent does not look .-.ndly upon the
presence of White as United States
representative in France.
General William F. Draper, who is
well known in diplomatic circles, has
also a decided grudge against the am

Draper from the italian embassy when
he received that appointment, and the
two have been at war ever since. Mr..
