NOT COMMITTED ON TARIFF
MR.. ALDRICH DECLINES TO DIS
CUSS SPECIAL TAXES.
Amount of Duties to Be Raised From
Imports to Be First Deter
mined, He Declares.

At the conclusion of long session
with the tariff bill under consid Grafton
Chairman Aldrich of the Senate finance
committee today stated emphaticalIy that
he is not concerning himself with ques-
tions bearing upon special taxes to raise
revenues, and will not do SO until il can
be ascertained how much revenue can
be obtained directly from duties on i'm
ports under bill which the committee
will recommend and how much public
expenditure can be decreased.
This statement was made in response to
request for his opinion of President
Taft's suggestion that dividends declared
by corporations might be taxed. Mr.. AL
drich declared that he had not discussed
such a plan with any one. and made the
sweeping addition that he was not COM
mitted to any of the plans suggested for
special taxes. such, as the inheritance
tax, the proposed tax on coffee and the
various stamp taxes.
All of these matters may be taken up
later. he said il there exists IA need for
the imposition of special taxes To raise
re, enues in excess o. what may be raised
by duties collected under the new bill.

SENTIMENT MAY RULE.
Filipino Assemblymen Struggling
With Payne Tariff Bill.

Special tabiegram 10 The Stn'
MANILA March 23-The assembly
struggling with the provisions of the
Payne tariff bill, threatens to place pOliti
cal aspirations above national interest:
and shows a disposition to oppose free
trade, as cementing the political union of
the Philippines and the United States. and
so jeopardiziEg the Filipino dreams Of in
dependence.
The majority of the assemblymen do
not know what the effect of the proposed
tariff will be, and hence probably will
base their votes upon sentiment rather
than reason Moreover they fear dim
mutton in the revenues of the islands. The
leaders declare that the limitations placed
by the Payne bill on the importation of
the products of the Philippines into the
United States are unfair.

LAW IN JUNE, PERHAPS.
Speculation as to Length of Debate
on the Tariff Bill.

Some members of the House. who are
trying to figure out just about when Con-
gress will put the new tariff law on the
statute books, today dug up the important
dates of the Dingley bill BY coinci-
dence the special session of Congress
which enacted the Dingley bill met Mon
day, March 1.-the same day and date as
this year-in 1897. The bill was intro
duced March IS and reported to the House
March 10. 1t passed the House after only
twelve days of consideration. March 81.
But the Senate committee took its time
and the Dingley bill was not reported to
the Senate until May 4. 1t passed the
Senate July ! and was approved and be-
came law July "a.
Up to date the Payne bill is one day
ahead of this schedule. having been in
troduced the 18th and reported the 18TH.
There seems to be general impression
that it may become law by early June.

STARTED ACROSS SIERRAS
Fast Descending Light Last Seen Of
Party.
CANYONS FILLED WITH SNOW
Believed by Many That Aeronauts
Have Met Their Fate in Storm
Swept Mountains.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, March 23.-More
than seventy hours have passed since the
balloon America, with six men in the
basket. sailed into the fog and clouds of
the storm-swept Sierra Madre mountains,
and no word has come back as to the
fate of the balloon or its passengers. Hope
that they may have reached safe land
ing and succeeded in gaining shelter from
the elements is fast merging into the
conviction that they have met their fate
in one of the worst of the mountain trag-
edies.
Nothing has been heard OF the two
searching parties sent out by the Elks
Lodge yesterday. and which struck into
the mountains above Pasadena Two
more parties went out today One party
of twenty men from Pasadena was headed
by experienced mountaineers The second
party was made up of thirteen men from
Sierra Madre. led by Chief Forest Ranger
George Crow. Both parties proceeded on
foot and We're equipped with axes to cut
their way across the mountains where no
trails exist.
Saw Light Fall Into Canyon.
Crow is the man who saw a light fash
canyon almost due north of Sierra Madre
about Z o'clock Saturday night. This
may have been the small pocket light
carried by Capt. Mueller. and which it
was his custom to use in descending at
night in an unknown locality.
Ranger Crow, who called his wife to
witness the strange light. said that ii
descended with great rapidity. and If ii
marked the downward course of the bal
loon the landing must have meant death
serious injury to those I'm the basket.
No Word From Relief Party.
The party headed by Roy knabenshue
the aeronaut which left Alpine tavern
on Mount Lowe, at 3:3O yesterday has not
returned. and no word has come from
them. They doubtless are still pushing
their way across the precipiIouS noun
tain sides.
Snow lies everywhere in the region to a
depth estimated at from four to five feet
on the level.
Snow slides have been occurring since
the storm stopped, and the canyons I'm
many places are filled to depth of forty
feet.

Coming to another burning question in
the bill. coal, Mr.. Payne said bituminous
coal had been put on the free list. 1t was
found that Pennsylvania coal and Nova
Scotia coal could be laid down in Boston
at a difference in cost of about 20 cents a
ton. 1t was found that with reciprocal
arrangement Pennsylvania would sell
more coal in Canada than Nova Scotia
would sell in New England. Opposition
to this arrangement came from Wyoming,
where they were afraid that the Alberta
coal. a better grade than Wyoming coal
would supplant their product.
But he thought Wyomings fears were

GAILLOT'S TWO NEW PLANETS.
Naval Astronomers Accept With Re-
serve French Report

The astronomers al the United States
naval observatory in West Washington
today discussed with interest the an
nouncement made last night before the
Academy of Sciences at Paris by the
French astronomer, NJ. GailIot. that he
had discovered two new planets situated
beyond Neptune.
They are inclined. however to accept
the French astronomers. announcement
with reserve. for they believe that time
alone can show whether the new planets
exist. Astronomers at Harvard Univer-
sity. 1t is declared, have been working
along similar lines. and it was thought
some time ago that they had arrived at a
solution of the problem.
