and the ~phraseology greatly changed
in the hope of preventing. reductions
through decisions by the courts such
as have characterized the administra-
ton Of the Dingley law during latter
years. In many instances the rates
intended to be imposed by the Ding
ley law were cut by the decisions, the
reductions in some instances being
from 60 per cent. to eight per cent. ad
valorem. 1t is estimated that the
rates fixed by the bill are about three
per cent. higher upon an average than
those collected on cotton last year.
Probably the most marked reduc-
tons throughout any schedule in the
bill as a result of the action of the
two houses and Of the conference COM
mittee are found In the metal sched-
ule. Beginning with a decrease in the
rate of iron ore from 40 to Is cents
per ton, there is a general reduction
throughout that portion of the bill,
pig iron going down from 81 to $3.50
per ton, and scrap iron from 81 to 81.
The reduction on many of the items in
this schedule amounts to about so per
cent, and this reduction includes
steel rails. There is an increase on
structural steel ready for use and also
a slight increase on razors, nippers
and pliers, and on such new metals
as tungsten.
Rates on Hosiery Increased.
The rates OF hosiery are generally
increased. In the much contested mat
ter of the rate on gloves the high pro-
~tectionists fail to score. They sought,
through an increase made by the
house, to raise the duty materially
above the Dingley figures, but were
antagonized by the senate, and the
senate won, the only change made in
the entire schedule being one slight
reduction.
The silk schedule was reconstructed
with a view Of imposing specific rath.
er than ad valorem dutiec, with the re-
suit that the average duty will be
somewhat higher under the new law
than under the present statute.
OIL cloths and lineoleum are heavi-
" cut, but otherwise the changes In
the fax, hemp and jute provision
were not material. A slightly in.
creased duty Is provided for
hemp, both crude and hacked. and
also on certain high-grade laces. On
linen yarns and matting,s there is q
reduction.

(From Tuesdays Daily)

Sunday night s storm in this city was of tremendous proportions in rainfall, exceeding that of any pre- vious one for the summer It var jed also from that of several years, being of steady precipitation, and lasting from o'clock in the evening until , o'clock in the morning.
 An hour before 1t ceased the down pour was one of the heaviest ever to be recorded in this section. The total rainfall' as registered by Dr. Finn at his observatory was 1.69, this exceeding that of week ago by .2S of an inch. Very little light ming was noticed in this city, but at points to the south this feature was said to be practically ineessant. Tim Der was the only commodity that suffered, and several trees along the Senator road were hit and splint- cred.
 Reports received in the city state that the rain extended to Copper Basin, Skull and Kirkland valleys, Wiekenburg, Congress, Bouse, Parker and along the Santa Fe to Kingman and the Colorado river. From north to south it covered all habitable points as far as Peoria and went north of Ash Fork. No rain reached Phoenix, but the weather at the Capital City was reported as more pleasant than for several weeks.
 At Kirkland the record was the heaviest ever known in that section, but no damage resulted.
 The Hassayampa carried larger head of water than known in many years, and no communication being open with Walnut Grove nothing can be learned as to the effect it pro duced on ranches there.
 Granite creek, in this city. reached high water mark for the season.
 The bridge in East Prescott, over which the Prescott Electric ears run, was materially damaged. The road at the military post was not affected to any great extent, but extensive repairs will have to he made.

PLACERs OF FRENCH GULCH TO BE
 WORKED
CFrom Tuesdays Daily)

Another dredge mining enterprise
 will soon be in operation in this
 county, is the statement made yes
 terday by Joseph Mackin, who IS
 Identified with the French Cullen
 placer ground, near Walnut Grove.
 Machinery necessary for this method
 of extraction, is now en route from
 the east, while from this city the
 lumber necessary to erect buildings will soon be shipped to that point
 Negotiations have been going on for some months toward placing this character of. machinery at that point, Mir. Duncan, a former resident of this city, but now of Indiana, being one of the main supporters of the project. Prospecting of the ground at several points along this gulch show a satisfactory mineral eondi- tion prevailing, and no other process but that of the dredge is capable of extracting the values. Several years ago a steam shovel was put to work at the old Pete Verdier place, it be- ing the general belief that this me chanieal device would handle the ground and save the values in the soil. It was failure, due mainly to the fact that it encountered huge boulders. and was not equipped with those facilities that made the hand ling of these obstacles feasible. It was also handicapped in being readily transported from one point to another in that field. The introduction of the dredge will be awaited with in terest, Walnut Grove and tributary points being classed as the most in viting section of this county in placer mining deposits. For a distance of several miles up and down that stream all the available ground is to- day under bond to a California syn dicate.

HEAVY RAINS HIT
 NORTHERN ARIZONA
Precipitation is Nearly Two Inches And is of Incalculab1e Value
 To All Industries.

Saturdays storm was more of an electrical display than of rainfall. During that occurrence an Indian on the hills north of the city was so close to a bolt that he was knocked unconscious, but in an hour or so revived. His companions says that the force of the stroke hit a boulder and the flash struck close to him. A horse near the electric line as it run over the hill beyond the post was hit and killed.
 Escapes from lightning in this city Saturday were considered miraculous Mrs. W. N. Kelly and child had a very close call, and were stunned by the contact. Their home was set on fire, and not the greenhouse, but was soon extinguished. At this home the interior was lighted up, and it was said to be a beautiful and yet ghastly sight. The lightning here passed through three urns of pot tery, and acted eaprieiously in other ways.
 In all the heavy storms that have visited this city, in which lightning has figured in so many alarming ways, there have been but two deaths of a human being. That was in 1872, on August 1, when Cyrus Bur nett, a brother of our townsman. I. P. Burnett, and of Mrs. Roland Aosher, was struck and killed, in West Prescott. He was bringing a load of wood to the city, and the lightning entered a pine tree near him in the wagon, and running down the trunk veered off to a limb, un- derneath which was Mr. Burnett, and this carried the main bolt to him, death resulting instantly and his two animals meeting the same fate
 Late in the '7Os, George Banghart, a brother of Mrs. E. W. Wells, was also instantly killed by this element. He took shelter near Chino valley, under a juniper tree, and lightning struck that and he also was killed instantly, together with the horse he was riding. These two sad occur renees are the only known fatalities in this section from this cause.

WILL NUT CONTEST IN THE HOSE RACES
Jerome Will Enter Team In Tug of War
 Event
CFrom Tuesdays DaIIy)

At a meeting of the Jerome Vol
 unteer Fire department, held Tuesday
 night, reports the News, it was de-
 eided not to send a team to contest
 in the hose races in Prescott, Labor
 Day. There were many reasons ad-
 vaneed why the trip to Prescott should be delayed, among them the fact that the local boys are all em- ployed, made them feel they could not take the time to get in proper condition, and, also, the fact that all of Jerome wants to get in on this in the way of seeing that the boys lack nothing which will help them out in their preparation for such a contest, and realizing that the eiti- zens of Jerome had contributed so liberally to the department Fourth of July fund, has a good deal to do with the decision. But, Oh, you Pres colt teami We will capture your goat on July 4, 1910. However. this will not keep Jerome from joining Prescott in its great celebration on Labor Day. And as to that tug-of- war, Charley King already has force of men turning the mountains inside out in a hunt for petrifed men. This year he proposes to cut out the wooden leg proposition.

Hassayamper Here.

George Hamblin, a pioneer of the very earliest period, arrived from Phoenix on Sunday afternoon, this being his first visit in many years. Mir. Hamblin came to this section of Arizona, in 1868, being at that time Ia good sized boy. He immediately went to work as a farmer, and has the distinction of planting the first grain in the Lower Agua Fria, from which he raised a crop of hay that went to $75 a ton in value He dis continued farming soon after this owing to the risk of working in the open while the Apaches were lying in ambush. Mir. Hamblin is an itin- erant Hassayamper and has been all over the territory in various occupa- tions. He will go to Cherry Creek today to see some mining property, and after a general trip over the county will return to the Salt River valley again, to put on the hobbies, as he tersely puts it.
