F|uIP|NOS OBJECT
=. TO THE PAYNE BILL
Predict Serious Results
Passed in Present Form

Manila, March 24.-Contrary to ex-
%pectations the Philippine assembly
did not take any action on the Payne
tariff bill. The leaders of the party
which is opposed to the provisions Of
the Payne bill affecting the Philip
pines have determined to await FUR
ther developments before taking any
action. In lieu of the proposed reso-
buttons in regard to the Payne bill the
assembly prepared a resolution in
structing the Filipino delegates at
Washington to follow directions of the
resolution of May, 1908, instructing
them to labor to secure the admission
of sugar and tobacco to American mar
kets without concessions here. This
resolution was prepared, but was not
presented. It is understood that
Speaker Ormena Of the assembly has
cabled Pablo Ocanpo, Filipino dele.
gate to congress, that II the Payne
bill Isl passed in its present form the
insular government will be unable to
meet its obligations.

LEFT IN LITTLE CANDY STORE
Ransom Of $4,000 Lay Exposed on
Cigar Case.

SsSNb S0OVs
Cleveland. March 24.-James p.
| Whitla and his son Billy" left here
for the family home in Sharon, Pa,
and were escorted to the railroad sta
ton by a cheering crowd of people.
The kidnapped youngster was clasped
in the arms of his father from the
moment they left the Hollenden hotel
until they reached the train. Mr..
Whitla was not inclined to discuss the
matter Of ransom or the plans of the
family in dealing with the kidnappers.
81 am so glad to have the boy in
ing and half crying, that l have given
no thought to the kidnappers. That
will be up to the police and as | live
and breathe l am not worrying over
their movements"
The $4,000 ransom of Billy Whitla
was paid to his kidnappers in a little
candy store at East Fifty-third street
and Standard avenue. The money
was received by an ordinarily dressed
workingman, who gave his name as
Hayes. He picked up the package
filed with yellow backed bills. smiled
nonchalantly and left.
Mrs. Bernard Hendrickson. tenn
porarily in charge of the store for her
mother, Mrs. Margaret Uhle, forgot to
notice which way the man went and
at the door of the little grocery is the
last trace the police have of him.
.-Y ~.lu>I -.: "a. n1ekar
The Hayes man stepped into the
store at noon and asked If a package
had been left there for him. Mrs.
Hcndrickson, without noting his ap-
pearance, told him there had not been.
An hour later a prosperous looking
man, who said his name vas Will
Jams, came in with a small package
in his pocket.
HE said he wanted to leave it for
q man named Hayes said Mrs. Hen
Erickson. He asked If Hayes had
been here and l said he had. Will
Jams left the package and not two
minutes later Hayes came In and
asked 'Is my package here?'
IL told him that It was and he
smiled. Without another word he
took 1t from where 1t lay exposed OH
top of the cigar case and went away"
A few hours later the Kidnapped
boy was placed on a street car and
sent to the HOllenden hotel, where his
father was awaiting the mlnllment of
the kidnappers' promise to release the
boy and send him to the hotel.
The Cleveland police r not In
clined to believe Mrs. Hendrickson
was a party to the Kidnapping plot,
but that she was merely Az innocent
agent for the payment Of the $4,000
ransom.

OPERATED WITH
UTMOST SKILL
Kidnappers Of Willie Whitla
May Never Be Caught
BOY APPARENTLY DoPED

When Returned to His Father He Ap'
peared Dazed and Scarcely Recog'
nized His Parent-TraiI Of Man
Who Received the $4,000 Ransom
Ends at Door of Candy Store in
Cleveland Where Money MAJ Left,
Cleveland. March 24.-Throughout
the development Of the plans of the
k%idnappers of Willie Whitla, who was
returned to his father in this city on
payment of $4,000 ransom, show
that they operated with the utmost
skill. Each time they have appeared
in any public place the trail ends
where they wanted it to end.
At the East End candy store where
the money was paid the tracks of the
man who got 1t end at the door: At
Payne avenues~ and East 'Thirtieth
street, where the boy was taken to
board the car. there is no trace of the
nan who accompanied him beyond
the vacant lot where he stood and
watched the boy take the street car.
Whether they will ever be captured
is problematical.
It may be a day or two before Billy
Whitla is able to tell the whole story
of his wanderings. When he came
into the Hollenden hotel he was dazed.
He scarcely knew his father when the
man leaped to him and seized him in
his arms.
He did remember that a woman
gave him medicine" evidently a
strong narcotic, for many of the
child's recollections are hazy in the
extreme. His heavy eyes and unac;
customed dullness of speech prove
that he was in a stupor much of the
time that he was in the custody of
the child stealers.
Even when he came to the Hollen.
den he thought he Was in Ashtabula
or Akron-he had heard the men tell
Of those two places. He knew he
had been in Warren and in Newcastle.
He thought he had been In the latter
place three days.
He had been in bed much of the
time, apparently under the influence
of drugs.

is estimated, will produce $500. 000. 900
revenue from customs.
After one of the stormiest sessions
in its history the house of representa-
tiyes, regardless of party alignment,
adopted, 211 to 172, a resolution by
Mr.. Fitzgerald Dem.. N. W, whereby
the rules we're amended in several i'm
portant particulars. It's adoption was
accomplished only after the 'insur-
gents" with the aid of the Democrats,
had o a decided preliminary vic
tory by voting down a resolution by
Mr.. Dalzell OF Pennsylvania making
the unamended rules of the Sixtieth
congress applicable to those of the
present congress.
The first piece of legislation to be
acted on by the house during the spe-
cial session was the bill providing for
the taking of the thirteenth census,
which was passed. In its present
form the measure gives to the civil
~serviceA commission jurisdiction over
appointments and provides for the
printing of the reports by the govern
ment printing Office. The bill as en-
acted at the last session was vetoed
by President Roosevelt.

sentatives. receiving 2O4 votes as
against 166 for Champ Clark of Mis-
souri,, 8 for Cooper of Wisconsin, 2
for Norris of Nebraska and l each

Democratic members voted for Clark,
S 70 that the scattering vote represent
ed the Republican detection from Can
nor.
The house committee on ways and
means, by a vote of IS to 6, agreed to
report the Payne tariff bill back to
the house without amendment. Rep
resentative Broussard of Louisiana
voted to report the bill without amend
ment, but all the other Democrats of
TIE committee voted against it.
That there will be a great variety
Of opinions on the tariff bill when it
reaches the senate is now certain,
according to expressions of senators
in whose states are located the vari-
u industries chiefly affected by the
changes of schedules proposed in the
hOuSe hill.

London, March Authorization has
reached London, according to the Pail

left England in July, 1907, reached the

that Lieutenant Shackleton, when he
