ASTOUNDING IMPUDENCE OF
THE ALDRICH PROCEDURE.

Senator Aldrich is frank, very
frank. He is frank in his disclosures
Of the present purpose of his party
to maintain, even to increase, the
Dingley rates, disregarding altogether
the demand of the people for de-
crease Of the tariff burden, and throw
ing to the winds the "true principle
of protection declared in the repub-
lican platform that the duties i'm
posed should be such "as will equal
the difference between the cost of
production at home and abroad; to-
gether with a reasonable profit t.
American INDUSTRIES Mr.. Aldrich
is most commercially frank, too, we
may even say he is stern, in his re-
buke to congress for its reckless ex-
travagance. He insists that the scale
of expenditure recently adopted is
wasteful and unnecessary, and he de-
clares that in the fiscal year 1911
there must be reduction of $50, 000,-
900 in disbursements. If this is done,
the provisions Of the Aldrich bill will,
in his judgment enable the treasury to
make both ends meet.
Senator~Aldrich submits to the SEN
ate estimates prepared with the as
sistance of treasury experts, showing
that the rates Of duty fixed in his bill,
if applied to the ifnportations Of 1907,
would have yielded $9,O00,OOO more
revenue than was actually collected
under the Dingley act.
This statement we may say at once,
is one of sublime hardihood, but the
calm language of the Rhode Island
senator affords no evidence that he is
conscious of the degree to which his
admission disappoint the expecta-
tions of the people and falsifes the
promises of his party. We were to
have the tariff revised because the
burdens it imposes are too severe
longer to be borne, and because we
have outgrown the necessity for the
protection which many Of It's sched-
ules provide. Instead of that, Mr..
Aldrich and his committee submit
bill that actually increases the Ding
ley extortions! The impudence of the
procedure is astounding, but we do
not see what the people are going to
do about it; we do not see even what
they can do about it. Mr.. Bryan has
reduced the democratic party, to
condition that makes it possible for
the republicans to do with entire i'm
punity what the standpatters believe,
or what the protected interests de-
mand.-New York Times.

REPUBLICAN, HIGH FINANCE.


Republican newspapers and orators
had great deal to say about cheap
money!
They would not discuss the money
question fairly then, and have never
done so since.
They pooh-poohed the argument
that what the country needed was
more money, and said all the people
needed was more confidence.
They ridiculed the proposition to
open the minis for silver on the same
terms that the milfts have been open
to gold since 1873, and made jokes
about the Is to l ratio in existence
then and In existence now.
They said with an air of great Sc
robustness that Uncle Sam couldn t
make dollar out of As cents worth
of silver, Notwithstanding the fact
that Uncle Sam was doing that very
thing then and has been doing so ever
since.
They said that the intrinsic
value" of a dollar must be the same
as it's "face value" and that the sill
yer dollar ought to be as cart wheel
on account of the commercial value"
of silver.
They said all this and a lot more
rubbish that had nothing to do with
the question, which wasn't true then,
is not true now, and never will be
true.
But this little dissertation is not
intended for "a discussion of the
money question. The only object in
view is to remind you of the Republi-
can arguments" in 1896 and to show
up the inconsistency of one Of the
first declared policies of a Republican
administration today in view Of those
arguments. +"
In his 3-minute message to con-
gress at the beginning of the special
session to "revise" the tariff upward,
downward and crossways for the sole
benefit of the trusts, President Taft
estimated that by July Uncle Sam
would have deficit of $100,000,000
To meet this deficit and to provide
temporarily against its continuance it
has been proposed to issue $150,000,-
900 in Ftreasmy certificates" or
"debt certifcate,' or whatever name
the word-jugglers at Washington
choose to call them.
The plain people are not supposed
to understand, but the fact is that
these certificates are to be put out
in the form Of paper money.
Which means that when one Repub-
hcan administration goes out Of Office
$100,O0O,000 in debt the next Republi-
can administration that comes along
will turn that debt into money by
issuing certificates" which doesn It
reduce the debt, because it is merely
an issue of bonds under another name
Isn't that a fine example of "high
finance" to fool the gullible?

PIANO TEACHER
DEAD IN ROOM
Was 10 Years Old and Had Been
Missing Since Thurs
day.

Andrew Solomon, piano teacher,
aged 20 years, was found dead early
today in a room which he occupied at
153 Mulberry street. Solomon had been
missing since last Thursday, and the
inmates of the house. alarmed at his
failure to appear every day as usual
notified the police of the First Precinct
Two men were detailed from the
First Precinct station to investigate the
matter and when they arrived at the
Mulberry street address they found the
door of his room locked. 1t was broken
in, and Solomon was found lying dead
on, the bed. County Physician Nc
kenzie was at once summoned and
after an examination, he found that
the man had died from heart failure,
The body was removed to Mullinss s
morgue and. an effort will be made TO
locate his relatives. 1t is believed that
Solomon was taken i'll on Thursday and
that he was too weak to summon as
sistance. The time that had elapsed
between the finding Of his body and his
death is not exactly known, but il is
thought that he died some time yester-
day.,

CHICAGO CARMEN MAY
WIN SALARY ADVANCE.
President Mitten Intimates That
He Will Sign Contract.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-The impression
was strong today that peace would
be nai,itained between the street-car
companies and their employees. Presi-
dent Mitten, of the Chicago City Rail-
way Company. intimsted that he was
willing to grant the required advance
in wages provided the men would sign
three years contract. President
Roach, of the North and Westside lines
said he would go as far as Mr. Mitten
in this direction.
Motormen and conductors interviewed
seemed jubiiant over prospects of peace
They voted to stand by the demands
made upon the companies. but It is
said without any real idea that a
strike would become necessary.
Mr.. Mitten was at his office early,
prepared to meet committee repre-
senting the men of his road to discuss
terms.

WANTS COUNTY TO MANAGE
FIGHT ON TUBERCULOSIS.

David Ellsworth. a member of the
Committee of One Hundred of the
Anti-Tuberculosis League, said today
that 1t was not the idea of the league
to take control of the old Essex County
Asylum in South Orange avenue and
convert it into a tuberculosis hospital
What we want" said Mr. Ellsworth,
lis to have the Freeholders themselves
use the $4,000 they appropriated for a
fight on the white plague. We believe
that the county should take up the
tuberculosis fight, the same as it has
taken up the fight on scarlet fever and
other contagious diseases. The Com
mittee of One Hundred has no idea of
assuming charge Of the money appro-
priated by the county, but wants the
freeholders to put the old asylum to
the use which has been designated.

BUSINESS HELD UP
BY TARIFF FIGHT
NOW IS BOOMING
Local Merchants Had Shipments
Tied Up Pending Settlement
of the New Rates.
BUSINESS NOW GOES
AHEAD WITH A RUSH
Shoe Men Are Looking Forward
to a Big Increase in
Their Line.

A remarkable business revival. fol-
lowing in the wake of the tariff re-
vision. is keeping Newark merchants
busy these days.
During the long and uncertain fight
over the new measure orders approxi-
mating thousands of dollars were
placed subject to the passage of sat
isfactory bill. Now that peace once
more reigns, and because of the ability
to trade on fixed and certain basis,
business is going ahead with a boom.
Kaufherr & Co, shoe leather tanners,
Of ~ Garden street, said today:
I'VE have had a large number of for
eign orders pending the passage of the
tariff bill. and are now starting to fiIl
them. We expect that our business viii
increase wonderfully and look forward
TO q brisk year. We also think that it
is the biggest thing that has ever hap
pened for all branches of trade"
Other manufacturers in the leather
business talk along the same lines
The new bill will also have an effect
on the textile manufacturers, as one of
the largest dealers in the country re-
marked that:
"One of the effects of the new bin
will be to stimulate the textile machine
building trade. We shall make more of
our mercerized goods in America and
this will mean the installation of fine
machinery"
The hosiery men were kept in sus-
pense until the passage of the bill, lest
there be some slip in the efforts of
members of Congress to keep their
promise to stand pat =
One of the most important features
of the new tariff, from the public point
of view, is the clothing schedule. An
advance in the price of clothing is ex-
pected in the very near future
Among local wooden manufacturers
Mr.. Hedden. of the Basch & Greenfield
Company, g. Seventh avenue. had this
to say when asked in reference to the
rise: THE American Wooden Company
has been operating in the past few
years only about 27 per cent. of its
machinery. hence less expense in turn
ing out their goods which made clothes
so cheap. but now that the wooden
business is bound to take a jump, il
will be perfectly natural that everyone
will have to pay more for clothing

Union Company Announces De-

the Union Ice Company, it is believed,
will enable retailers again to sell FIVE

forced to discontinue early in the sea

cent pieces have been sold through the

THAW LIED,
JEROME DECLARES
Closing Arguments in White
Plains in Slayer's Fight
for Freedom.

WHITE PLAINS, Aug 7.--Closins
arguments were heard by Supreme
| Court Justice Isaac N. Mills today ir
the application of Harry x .Thaw fol
his release from the Matteawan In
sane Asylum. Each side was confined
to an hour and both had said that they
did not need as much time as this. Mr..
Jerome's turn came first.
Mrs. Josiah Thaw, the prisoners Sis
ter-in-law, was the only member of the
family not present when court con-
vened. Thaw looked even paler than
usual His chair touched Jerome's and
he se-lled his features with evident
determination to show no emotion
under the storm which he expected to
descend upon his head
Mr.. Jerome began with saying that
Justice Mills must be perfectly familiar
with the case, and, therefore, he would
not attempt to go over the evidence
in detail. Speaking of the creditability
of the witnesses and their bearing
under cross-examination, he said he be-
lieved all did their best to tell the
truth. except Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw.
II do think" he declared. that this
girl was deliberately and Intentionally
falsifying. That she told her husband
the story of her injury at the hands
of Stanford White, have no doubt"
Mr.. Jerome then passed directly to
the question of Thaw's sanity "The
whole Thaw family manifested what
might be called popularity. From such
would say, without any assistance from
alienists, eWell, you would get pretty
rickety sort OF a child out of that
family"
Here Jerome laid down his notes and
recited from memory various wild acts
of the prisoner, testified to at the
former trials. His alleged attempts at
suicide in Paris, and his proposition to
commit suicide with his wife in New
York, were held up particularly as evil
dences of a diseased mind.
mo normal mind would want wife
to tell the terrible story Evelyn Thaw
told on the stand" asserted Jerome.
The district attorney declared that he
placed little reliance on the testimony
of DR.. Britton D. Evans, Thaw's chief
alienist, and asked the court to dis
regard it.
IF person had come in here from
Mars continued the prosecutor, and
seen Thaw on the stand, he would
have realized something was the mat
ter with him. 1t was unwholesome, 1t
was uncanny. call your attention to
his attitude toward his act. "A man of
sound mind would have said, Yes l
killed him, but he did great wrong
to the woman l loved, and hated him.
1t was wrong, / know"
The district attorney went on:
"The situation is about this: Here is
a man whom heredity has proven to
be bad; he is man whose childhood
was that of highly nervous sort. We
find him marrying this girl, and there
was nothing after the marriage to ex-
cite his jealousy. We see him pursuing
this idea of injury to young American
girls.
"It seems to me 1t would not be safe
to turn this man loose until there had
been ample opportunity to submit him
to medical examination from day to day
for long period
Jerome finished his summing up at
1875 o'clock.
