Brown and Borah both had letters
from the president bearing upon the

hides that would pay low duty and
that practically all harness. was made
from. dutiable leather and therefore
would be reduced to 20 per cent ad

realizes that there are infractions of
the prohibition law, but whether or
not any officer is to blame, he is un-

OF HIS INSANITY
State Officers Gives Opinion as to
Condition Of Harry Thaw--Men-

White Plains, N. Y, Aug S.-This
was alienist day again at the Thaw
hearing. DR.. Amos t. Baker, first
assistant physician at the Matteawan
state hospital for the criminal insane,
whose testimony took up the greater
part of the session yesterday after
noon, was recalled this morning. Thaw
had the same trio of experts who have
already declared that he is now sane
and who have been at the elbow of
his counsel, Charles Morschauser,
since the hearing began.
DR.. Amos Baker said on the witness
stand that he did not consider the
opportunities he had to examine the
prisoner sufficient to permit him to
form satisfactory conclusion. New
ertheless he declared his belief that
the prisoner was now insane, and that
his release would be a menace to the
public safety.
Justice Mills began with observa-
tion that he considered DR.. Baker an
extremely important witness, since he
was a state officer and therefore sup
posed free from bribes.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 3. = No
sooner had the senate convened, to-
day, than members were reminded of
yesterdays disturbance over the leath-
er schedule of the tariff BILL The sub
ject was introduced by Senator Cul-
berson of Texas, who. referring to the
decision of the conference committe'
to bring in a joint resolution remodel
ing the leather provision, gave notice
that, when the time came, he would
present an amendment putting cotton
bagging on the free list
The decision Of yesterday with re-

effect as was made evident by the
pleasing countenance of the republi
can leaders. Senator Aldrich express
ed confidence that the bill now would
go through, without further difficulty

Washington, d. c., Aug. 3. = The
tariff legislation has been delayed
again by the hide and leather ques-
tion and as result the conferees
were called together once more yes
terday. The western senators com.
plain that the leather schedule, as
arranged by the conferees with the
approval of the president, is unfair
to the states interested in protected
hides. 1t was agreed that some ac-
tion must be taken to conciliate them
before the conference report is adj
opted.
Aldrich caused the report to be
taken up yesterday as soon as the SEN
ate met AS usual the senate leader
and associates moved about to as.
certain whether there had been any
change of sentiment. They were
not long in finding that a Joker" in
the compromise on the hide and leath
er question had upset the comfortable
majority they had previously counted
on for the adoption of the report. The
westerners claimed they had been led
to believe that ali boots and shoes
of leather were to be dutiable at ten
per cent and that all harness was to
be dutiable at twenty per cent.
When the conference report was is.
sued it appeared that the reductions
applied only to articles manufactured
in the chief part Of the class of hides
which we're to be made free OF duty.
The reductions would not apply to
shoes. the uppers of which are made
of calf skin, or to harness, the chief
value of which is calf skin.
Some western senators were ex-
termely bitter in their condemnation
of the compromise. They said they
had been fooled. that the president
had been fooled and the trick played
on the consumer wah nothing short
of buncombe Some senate leaders
and some dissatisfied members hur-
ried to the White House. There all
were informed that the president had
not been fooled. He was reported to
have told al his callers that he fully

promise.
Aldrich was among those who call
ed at the White House. When he re-
turned to the capitol he issued a call /

ing the house republican members.
