ANGERED AT SILENCE

Cables From New York Police Concern.

BY the Sicilian Authorities.

New York. March 15.-Though there
headquarters Sunday, nearly all Of the
chief officials having been there and in
conference. no definite developments
regarding the work of tracing the as
sassins of Lieut.. jos. Petrosino In
Palermo. Sicily, were announced.
There was a feeling of chagrin ami
even OF resentment over the fact thar
not one wCrd regarding the murder Of
The NV YorH detective had come from
Lue Italian police, despite the fact that
a cable mad been sent them asking Ger
tain information.
Inspector McCafferty, head of the de
tective service here. made some caus-
tic remarks over the neglect of thJ
Italian police. Said he:
III an Italian detective sent here on
a mission by that government, and
working in behalf of the Italian police
had been murdered in New York We
would have notified the slain mans
home department at once. So far as
INC DOHNN VI lAAlg arc NOhNNl hNu
have not heard a word Of Petrosino's
death. | cabled Saturday for informa-
;ion. but have received no answer from
Palermo"
The inspector said he was particular
to know whether Petrosino had been
robbed after being shot. He inimated
that Petrosino had some papers valua-
BILE to the police here in running down
Black Hand and other Italian offend
ers. The neglect OF the Palermo po-
lice makes II impossible for the police
here to know whether Petrosino had
these papers in his pocket when slam,
and whether the assassins secured
them. The inspector said that Petro-
sino had letters of instruction from the
department her which, II stolen by the
murderers, would reveal to the Italian
criminals just what plans the police
of New York have on foot.
To the question whether he thought
Italian criminals here had requested
confederates in Italy to kill Petrosino
In that country, Inspector McCafferty
replied that he doubted that theory.
Petrosino was constantly in perilous
positions in New York, the inspector
said, and II the criminals of this coun-
try had dared kill him at all they
would have done It in this city.
Mrs. Petrosino, the young wife of the
murdered detective, is still prostrated
at her home here as the result of the
tragic death OF her husband. For a
time, her relatives say, she refused to
accept as true the news OF Petrosino's
death and clung to the hope that 1t was
all hideous mistake. This hope, II Is
stated now. has left her.

DEMOCRATS TO FIGHT
TARIFF ON COFFEE
viii Oppose Attempt to Tax "The
Breakfast Table" TO Raise
More Revenue.

Washington, Mar. 13.-The Demo
Gratis in the house will oppose the es-
tablishment of duty on coffee and
the provision OF the new tariff bill for
the re.estabishement of the stamp tax
on checks, bonds and stocks.
+ If the Republicans do not provide
for an Inheritance tax in the new bill,
the Democrats declare they will fight
to have an amendment made to the
bill which would agsess a tax on lega.
cies. and, 1t IS said would in this way
embarrass the Republican on account
of The recommendation of Presiden $
Roosevelt and Taft.
The minority members, especially
those on the ways and means commit.
tee, are preparing for the new tariff
BILL but as they have not seen the new
bill and will not be informed of the
changes provided for until II is intro.
duced II is not known on what
schedules the main fight will be made
Representative Underwood of Alaba.
ma, who is a minority member of the
ways and means committee, declared
that II the duties imposed by the tarifi
were determined on revenue basis
there would be no need for taxing the
breakfast table or imposing a stamp
tax. He said an inheritance tax offers
the best means for making up the de.
felt in the treasury. and that II the
new bill contained provision for such
a tax neither the duty on coffee nor
on beer need be increased.
One of the provisions of the bill
which many Republicans, as well as
Democrats, are likely TO attack is that
taking of the duty on iron ore. The
Dingley bill imposes a rate Of 40 cents
a ton on iron ore, and the importatons
in 1907 amounted TO more than $1,000.
900, from which the duties collected
amounted to more than 100000. The
placing of iron ore on the free list was
advocated by John w. Gates and nu
merous foundry and furnace concerns
of the east and Pacific coast
Representatives OF iron mining In
terests in the Lake Superior, Messaba
and Adirondack regions were favor
able TO a reduction of from Is to 2t
per cent. in the duty on iron ore, II II
was proposed to make a general down
ward revision OF the tariff. The ma
tional grange favored the placing oi
iron ore on the free list as being In
line with the idea of conserving the
natural resources of the country.

Chicago Mar 11.-As forecasted yes.
erday the famous Standard Oil rebat.
ng cases in which Judge Landis i'm.
posed fine of s29. .240 900, have been
thrown out OF court.
Judge A. B. Anderson, before whom
they came for retrial after the United
states court of appeals had reversed
the Lands fine, yesterday afternoon
held that the government had not
proved the charges made in the indict-
ment and, following a long argument
by District Attorney Sims, ordered the
jury to return verdict of not guilty.
May Continue the Fight.
From Washington comes the report
that an appeal to the United States
circuit court of appeals will be taken
from Judge Anderson's decision. This
would take the case back to the same
court that reversed the Lands de.
cision in an opinion administering a
scathing rebuke to the Judge.
That Attorney General Wickersham
will make every effort to get the case
before the United States supreme
court for final decision is believed in
the capital. District Attorney Sims
has not announced what action he will
take He is waiting on instructions
from Washington.
The decision rendered by Judge An.
derson yesterday means that all but
two of the pending indictments against
the Standard company are void. and
will be abandoned by the government.
Those two not affected are cases in
volving shipments of 1915 carloads OF
oil from Whiting. Ind, to Evansville,
Ind, by way of Dolton Junction, ILL.,,

railroad.
Six Cases Affected.
The six cases that are affected in
volve the indictments for shipments
over the Chicago & Alton railroad and
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy rail
way. and the indictments. too, that
have to do with the storage charges
alleged to have been allowed illegally
to the Standard Oil Company by the
Lake Shore & Michigan Southern rail
road.
Ii was Judge Lands who directed
the case to be taken before Judge An.
derson when Judge Bethea declined
to hear 1t after the supreme court
Of the United States decided to allow
the reversal Of Judge Lands decision
by the United States circuit court OF
appeals to stand undisturbed

REJECTION OF MINERS DEMANDS
surely viii Be Followed BY a Strike,
Says Leader.

Philadelphia, March 15.-Secretsry
Hartlein. OF District No. 5, United Mine
Workers, declared Sunday night that
he believed there would be a strike of
the anthracite miners. He said:
In my opinion a strike is sure to
come. At the conference between the
representatives of the operators and
the miners the former maintained an
attitude which, in my opinion, will
cause strike to be called.
Every issue which was presented
was rejected by the operators. These
Issues have long been considered by
the miners. and they say now that
their demands are not unreasonable.
"The reflections OF the demands will
anger the miners OF the union, and
am OF the opinion that the result of the
convention to be held in Scranton on
March 2S will be that the committee
will be instructed to again confer with
the mine operators and TO again pre-
sent TO them the very same demands
which they have just rejected. Then
unless the demands are granted, which
do not think possible in view of the
present attitude of the operators. Am
confident strife win be called"
