gagement 10 evacuate the island July
81. Turkey has served notice that
after this date the island, while pre-
serving its autonomous regime, must
return to the Turkish flag and she is
prepared to go to war on this issue.
Greece, on the contrary, thinks an
nexation should follow evacuation by
the powers, but the efforts of the king
of Greece to secure the support OF the
powers to this idea have, up to the
present. been unavaling. 1t is I'M
derstood that Germany will side
strongly with Turkey in the matter.

FINANCE COMMITTEE CONTINUES
IN coNTRoL-LA TOILETTE
MAKES SPEECH.

Washington, June 10.-The wooden
schedule was still under considera-
ton in the senate, when at $50 the
usual recess for dinner was taken.
Several votes were obtained during
the day and thus a number of para
graphs We're passed upon. Among
these were paragraph on top waste,
etc., on which the committee amend
ment increased the house rate on
wool top waste and other wastes
from 20 cents a pound to 80 cents a
pound which, on division of the
senate, was adopted, 40 to 80. This
was the finance committee change
and the committee scored its usual
majority ON this as on all other
votes of the day. Senators Gamble
and Crawford deserted the progress
sives," but with these exceptions the
ranks of that contingent remained un-
broken. A vote was also obtained
upon the committee amendment IN
creasing the duty ON shoddy from 20
cents pound to rs cents, and that
on tops from 18 cents to 20 cents, the
committee prevailing in both cases.
Speeches were made during the
day by Senators Warren and La Fol
lette, the former advocating, as on
yesterday, a generally increased duty,
while the latter commended, as on pre-
vious occasions, for general reduc-
ton. The two senators engaged in a
sharp controversy during which Mr..
La Toilette said that those in the
senate who believed with him had
increased from nothing to a dozen
He said he expected further accre-
lions from the east.
Probably the most interesting de-
velopment of the day was the declar-
alton by Mr.. Dolliver that rag
trust" exists. The Iowa senator de-
clared such to be the case, but he
was centradicted by Senator Warren,
who declared that if such a trust
should exist, he would know about it
and he added that he had no know
ledge of 1t.
At the beginning of the days SEES
sion, letter was read from Governor
Durbin IF Indiana, advising prompt
action OF the tariff bill.
La Toilette Still Talking.
Senator La Toilette occupied the
entire night session without conclud-
ing his speech. When the senate adj
journed at 1925, the wooden SEIZED
ule had not yet been disposed Of, and
it will be under consideration today.

TER IN DEFENSE OF HIS RE-

Chicago, June at was to save
the church, to defend it from its
most potent enemies, that l wrote the
things which have angered my fellow
ministers in the Baptist faith | had
no thought of creating discord, but /
saw a great exigency, to face which
successfully the church must cast
aside the baggage which it has
brought down from unenlightened
ages, while keeping only the essence
to true religion"
So stated Professor Foster of the
University of Chicago, author of THE
Function of Religion which caused a
furore among the Baptist clergy.
when asked yesterday to define the
relation of his teaching to creed of
the times.
That the church to weather the
gales OF modern thought must cut
loose from the dogmas it borrowed
from past times. that it cannot retain
the respect and faith of intelligent
minds while clinging blindfy to the
tenets that belittle intelligence
Professor Foster added that he was
local Baptist and would not with
draw from the ministry no matter
what pressure was brought to bear
upon him.

1t was learned upon the highest
authority that the president had not
read the Chicago speech of Secretary
MacVeagh before the secretary left
Washington for Chicago, and the
president was not aware of the char
acter of the speech to be made This
does not mean that the president
finds fault with Mr. MacVeagh's ut
terances, but merely answers the re-
port that it was an official view OF
the tariff situation and that it ex-
pressed Mr.. Taft's opinion. 1t is
usual, it was stated yesterday, for a
members of the cabinet to submit
their speeches to the president. Mr..
Taft has never required members of
his cabinet to do this, and therefore,
responsibility for their utterances
can not be charged to him.
Republican leaders were inclined
to assign to political inexperience Mr..
MacVeagh's failure to consider that
any speech delivered by him was like
ly to be taken as the view of the adj
ministration. Many leaders point to
the fact that the speech was deliv-
cred to an audience which sympa-
thized entirely with the demands for
revision downwards, but at the same
time they assert that careful read
ing of ire speech would indicate that
it has been misconstrued in many
quarters.

Washington, June 9.-The senate
the course of the tariff bill through
congress and will be members of the
conference on the bill after it has
passed the senate, took measures yes
terday to ascertain whether there
was any foundation for the reports
that President Taft would veto the
bill. They have reached the conclu-
sion that there is no basis whatever
for such reports.
Speaker Cannon, Senator Aldrich
and Representative Payne individu-
ally have been to the white house
several times in the past few days
and they say that if Mr.. Taft is dis
satisfied with the course of the bill
through congress he had concealed
his thoughts very successfully.
As late as last evening President
Taft told one of the republican lead
ers that no one had authority to sug-
gest that he had in mind veto OF
the tariff measure. Mr.. Aldrich was
at the white house yesterday and
talked with the president for some
time. When he returned to the cap
itol he told his colleagues that the
president did not appear to be at all
perturbed about the tariff situation.
and that he had expressed confidence
in the members of the finance com
mittee.

Then, after announcing that Rev.

that Senator Dolliver in the telegram
he had sent in the afternoon gave
physical exhaustion and tariff duties

from the rostrum and declared, il is

almost unable to raise his hands to
defend himself.
The fight was a whirlwind affair,
from start to finish. Ketchel went
