OPPOSED TO LURTON.
Some Senators Think HIM Too
Old and Others Too Decided.
rFrom The Tribune Bureau J

Washington. Nov. 29-Despite the
fact that the President has decided on
the appointment OK Judge Horace X
Lurton TO the Supreme Bench, strong
opposition TO the confirmation Of the
Tennessee jurist has developed In the
Senate Judiciary COMMITTEES, and IL Is
probable that President Taft Will be
told Of this opposition within day or
two. One member Of the committee has
already made up his mind 10 take up
the matter with Mr.. Taft.
The most general objection against
Judge Lurton is his age. Several mem
bers OF the committee believe that a
man of sixty-six years. while he may do
excellent service on the Supreme Bench,
is too old TO make his appointment TO
the bench a wise one. Another OBJ
lection Is brought BY a Senator who has
just completed a reading OF Judge Lur-
toms chief opinions. and has come to
the conclusion that Judge LurtOn holds
the views OF the Old-fashiOned. rock
bound Democrat with regard I state
rights and is not sufficiently broad in his
Interpretation Of the Constitution.
The entire question will Se brought to
the Presidents attention before the ap-
pointment Is made.

EVICTED STRIKERS SUFFER.
Accupants of Sixteen More Houses at
Ludlow, Mass, Ordered to Vacate.

Ludlow. Mass. Nov. 29.-The elements
last night and to-day added TO the mis-
cry OF the three hundred persons evicted
on Saturday from tenements owned by
the Ludlow Manufacturing Associates be-
cause OF a strike In the mills of the com
plny. The household effects OF the evicted
persons were piled together I'm heaps in
the street In front of the houses from
which they had been removed. The own
ers found refuge for themselves and their
families In the houses OF friends, but
there was no shelter for the goods and
last nights rain caused great damage
The work of eviction was suspended to-
day. but II was announced that on Wednes-
day the occupants cf sixteen other houses
owned By the company would be ordered

The principal development to-day was the
importation OF a band of fifty Italian
strike breakers who were taken 10 the
mills under strong police guard.

NOT SEEKING TRADE WAR.


prominent member of the Senate said
to-day that he would oppose any effort
10 postpone the operation OF the maximum
and minimum section OF the tariff law.
NO country has any basis for grievance
against us that We are proceeding with
undue haste" he said. More than a year
ago II was known that when the Dingley
law was revised it would be superseded by
a law which provided for a maximum and
a minimum tariff. This nation is not seek
ing a trade war with Canada or with any
other country. We have right 10 ask for
an even chance in foreign markets. We do
not ask for the same rights as are ac-
corded citizens of the home country. but
we do ask for the same rights as those
which citizens of other countries enjoy.
If We are denied these rights we are in
a position 10 say. Unless you remove these
restrictions and treat us fairly the maxi
mum tariff Of the United States will be i'm
posed against you There is nothing dras-
tic in the maximum and minimum section
of the Payne act. 1t is simply a big stick
for the enforcement of the square DEAL
Mr. Mann believes that a trade war with
Canada is certain unless Congress post
pones the operation OF the maximum and
minimum clause OF the Payne law Op-
ponents of his plan do not entertain that
view. They assert that discretion given
the President will enable him TO drive a
good bargain with Canada, whose people
are just as much opposed TO a trade war
as are the people Of the United States. II
II shall appear that the Dominion gov
ernment is seeking TO give American prod
ucts fair treatment. but that all the re-
strictions cannot be removed before March
81. the President vii. enjoy sufficient dis
erection TO stay the 25 per cent increase
until he can ascertain whether Canada is
acting in good faith.
The Republican leaders take the positIon
that the nations OF the world are adjusting
their tariffs TO meet the conditions imposed
by the maximum and minimum section
OF the Payne law. They believe that many
restrictions which have impeded American
trade abroad will be removed in the next
few months. and that before March 81 next
the salutary influence OF the threatened %
per cent increase will be apparent in the
reciprocal treatment which is accorded
American commerce in the principal parts
Of the world.
In this connection il is pointed out that
II the President shall decide To suspend
the % per cent Increase against Canada
on March 81 he will lose none Of his power
TO put this Increase into effect at a later
date, If he so desires. The slogan of those
opposed To the Mann plan will be: Let
the President decide. We have furnished
him with experts 70 ascertain the facts. IL
II is fact that Canada is not treating US
fairly. our maximum tariff ought 10 he I'M

Application of Motor to Machine
Tool Drive.
tBy II. z. Myers before the Electric Ciub.)

The problem of electric power
transmission in industrial plants
must necessarily differ according to
the nature of the requirements, eacn
case being considered specifically.
Whether group or individual drive
is adopted depends upon various fac
ters, a great deal depending on the
class of work done and the arrange
ment of machines and departments
The advantage of eleltric drive are
conceded, there being considerable
difference of opinion as to the econ
omy of group or individual drive
There are cases no doubt, where
group drive is preferable especially
in light constant speed work and
where the machinery operates near
ly 100 per cent. of the time. But the
tendency in most cases, is toward in
dividual drive.
1t is estimated that transmission
losses due to belt and shafting var
les from 90 per cent. to 80 per cent.
IN extreme cases, 60 per cent. being
the average lin machine shops. where
the entire shop is driven by one
motor or engine. In these losses the
tension nf the belt is large factor
A belt may be so tight as to cause
an increase OF a hundred peren
IN friction losses, and machanic!
putting on a belt, work to the idea o
getting the belt tight enough tha
it won't ship, no thought beng givel
to friction losses. On the other ex
treme the belt may be so loose a
to cause serious losses from slipping
rhe proper medium of getting tn
belt just tight enough to do it
maxium work is rather Difficult
Job and a harder one ito maintai
on account of the tendency of th
Delt to stretch and on damp days t
shrink.
Belts are expensive to maintai
and replace and require considerabl
attention and repairs; so the neare
we approach the individual drive tn
less trouble and expense we hav
from this source. Where overhea
cranes are used all machines so sery
ed should be motor driven to facili
tate the handing of material an
avoiding the interference of belt
and shafting.
Indivi lui.l drive allows wider scop
in the placing of machines advantag
ously in their relation to each othe
economizing floor space and in tn

process; exterminates the dirt an
grease always present with belts an

Y Ellis, who is held in the Pulaski county jail for the alleged murder of N P Willis. of Indianapolis, was this afternoon re- moved from the first floor of the iail where the white prisoners are kept to the third floor where the federal prisoners are lodged. Ellis has not been in the best of health for some tune and 1t was feared the close con finement of the lower floor would un- dermine his health entirely. The third floor of the jail has large room in which inc federal prisoners can exercise. The hunks are large and far apart and the prisoners do not have to sleep on hammockS like they do on the lower floor. Ellis will be confined on the third noGr until the time for his trial next month.

At a conference between Little Rock business men and the United States board Of engineers for rivers and har- bcrs, yesterday. Dr. J. l.. Caldwell, secretary Of the Pine Bluff board of trade, was one of the speakers. The conference was held in the city hall i'll Little Rock and many prominent Arkansans were heard
 Dr. Caldwell spoke from a Pine Fluff standpoint saving 2SO,OOO tons of coal had been cosumed there last year. He said if the coal could be delivered ill Pine Bluff Sl per ton cheaper it would mean great thing for Pine Bluff. He gave the rates for coal from all points to Pine Bluff, showing what deep water would save that city. He said the river improved would give Pine Bluff cheap coal, and this would give the. town factories. Dr. Caldwell asked the engineers to open up the river from Ozark to Little Rock if the board would not continue the work to Pine Bluff
