 Chief of Russian Political Police, From Which Of- flee He Recently Retired.

St. Petersburg, July 24-GeneraI political police abroad, who recently was denounced by NJ Bourtzeff, as be- ing implicated in a plot to assassinate Emperor Alexander III. has been in St. Petersburg for the last two weeks arranging for his affairs. He has been retired from the police service at his own request on an annual pension of $25OO
 In an interview today, which was se- cured with much difficulty, General Harting known also as Michael Land ezen, made the important announce ment that Azef, a leader of the fight ing revolutionists. and a noted police spy whom the Russian police profess to be seeking throughout the world. is now in Russia occupying an i'm pOrtant post in the sO-called third sec tion, or political police
 General Harting is residing in one of the apartments maintained by the police where they can meet the revo- lutiOnary agents. He consented to talk when convinced that he was recogniz- ed. He readily admitted his identity with the terrorist, Landezen saying that in early youth he sincerely be- lieved in the principles of terrorism. and participated under the name Of Landezen in planning with others the assassination of Alexander III in 1908. He denied. however. that he had be- trayed his comrades to the French po- lice as NJ Bourtzeff has charged.

Parliamentary Objection to the Proposed Compromise THE C0NFEREEs LIMITED
Unable to Agree Upon a Rate Lower Than Had
 Been Adopted by Either House Believed Subject Will Be Adjusted Finally

Washington, D. C., July 24-The hide question was settled and unset tied today, and while there seems little doubt that eventually hides will be placed on the free list, the contest over their status can not be regarded as closed.
 None of the questions made promi- nent throughout the country through President Taft's interest in them was settled today, although the conference was in executive session all day. The cOnferees expect to spend a large part of Sunday wrestling with these prob lens The indications tonight are that the Rtes upon important questions still in dispute will be as follows: Hides, free; oil, free; lumber, rough, S1.25 per 1000 feet, with propOrtionate differentials; coal, 45 cents a ton, without the house reciprocal clause; iron ore. 15 cents a ton; print paper. S35O a ton.
 Practically one full week has been occupied by the conferees in an effort to settle these questions. Most of the time has been devoted to hides. This subject was complicated by reason of statements coming from the boot and shoe interests that they were ready to agree to a substantial reduction in leather goods below the senate rates if hides were put on the free list. These interests apparently felt sure that there would be no reductions on boots and shoes below I5 per cent adyalorem, the house rate.
 The president stated to a number of his callers that he would insist upon a reduction to at least 10 per cent adva- lorem. with proportionate decreases on the rates on other leather goods
 Reports reached the conference room late today that Speaker Cannon and Parliamentarian Hinds decided that it would be impossible for the cOnferees to adopt a rate on boots or shoes lower than the rate adopted by either branch of congress. The advocates of pro- tected hides declared that there must be a proportionate reduction on leath- CT to offset the abolition of the duty on hides if their votes were to be counted on to pass the conference bill. As a result of this declaration. men interested in protected hides. and some of those who are looking for an early adjustment Of tariff differences, were filled with consternatiOn.
 Some western senators already are said to he grealy dissatisfied with the action taken by conferees in decreasing the rates on lead and it's products. It was said that it would take very little to induce them to vote against the con- ference report.
 MT Aldrich was of the opinion that the conferees could reduce the rates below those fixed by either house with out the adoption of a concurrent reso- lution However, a canvass will be made to ascertain whether such con- current resolution can be adopted.

London, July 24-No Hyde Park demonstration in recent years has been able to boast such an array of members of parliament as spoke this afternoon from the platforms erected in London's great open air meeting place in support of Chancellor of the Exchequer Lloyd Georges budget. The crowd in the park approximated 500.- 900 people.

York for a national championship will
 leave around the early part of August
 for inc National A A. U. champion
 ships which wilh be held in Seattle on
 August l3 and M. The Chicago A. A. is endeaVoring to have a triple meet ing between their track team and the teauis of the New York A. C. and Irish-American A. A. It is expected that both the New York A. C. and ish-American A. A will send their best men. because if there is one meeting in the year that an athlete feels he is entitled to compete in, if he is good enough, it is the National blue ribbon event of the year.
 Barlow s. Weeks, chairman of the committee has received an allowance from the exposition of ficials towards helping out the clubs that will sen dtheir best men.
 If Reginald Walker, the South African sprinter, does not achieve his ambition of running 100 yards in nine seconds flat along with grabbing off all kinds of championship titles, it will not he because business interferes with him. Walker is in the employ of a mining millionaire who owns vast interests all over South Africa. Said millionaire was an athlete himself be- fore he made his money, and natural y is quite a bit interested in Walkers great doings on the cinder path.

KIND OF PROTECTION
 THE COUNTRY NEEDS THE ADDRESS OF SECRETARY NAGEL AT CHICAGO. Time For the Infant Industries to
 Stand Alone.

Chicago. July 24.-Secretary of Com merce and Labor Charles Nagel, ad- dressed the National Travellers Asso- citation convention here tonight. MT Nagel said in part:
 Tt goes, without saying, that the tremendous undeveloped resources of this country have up to this time al- most compelled us to look to and de- pend upon our domestic trade. It is equally clear that we are rapidly nov ing beyond the initial stage of deyel- opment, and that we are forced to compete for supremacy in foreign mar kets
 The damend for a downward re- vision of the tariff is based primarily upon the recognition that our infant industries have reached the stage of manhood. What we need is sane pro lection. These conditions can be had only under consistent, uniform, sta ble, national control, so that all deal CTS and all competitors from all parts of the country may enter the arena by the same rules of the game
