ity of preventing the spread of tuber-
culosis among children by resort to
the tuberculin test in wedding out
diseased animals from dairy farms is
attracting increased attention and the
city of New Orleans and the town of

The outlook in America is for

initial Work Was to Agree on
Schedules Which Conferees
Are Willing to Accept With
out Debate.
IMPORTANT ITEMS TO
CAUSE THE STRUGGLE
ut Is Probable That the Con-
ference Will Not Be Able to
Report on Work Until Mon
day a Week.

Washington, July 1O.-Republican
members OF the conference committee
on the tariff bill went into session
shortly after 10 o'clock this morning
! behind closed doors and remained
there until after / O'Clock. At an in
formal meeting last night the repub-
llicans decided that they would form
ltheir report without the assistance Of
the minority and accordingly the DEM
ocrats did not attend the conference
this morning. The conferees are going
over the measure as 1t passed the SEN
late and are comparing it to the house
hill.
The initial work will be to agree on
those parts which the oonferees are
willing to accept. This will settle
from the start large number of diff
ferences between the two houses. Fol-
flowing this there will be compromises
I'm which both sides will yield. This
will leave the important amendments
ion which there Is q wide difference of
opinion. open for the final struggle.
TAFT viii Insist.
It is likely that upon some of the
imore important schedules the confer
ees will consult the president. Presi-
dent Taft will insist upon the ac-
ceptance OF the house rates upon GER
tain schedules.
II Ii probable that the conferees
will not Be able to report before
week from Monday. and II It II pos
sible to do this the leaders hope for
the ANAL adoption Of the tariff meas
ure on July a, the twelfth anniver-
sary Of the approval Of the Dingley
bill.
Democratic members OF the tariff
thought this would be the outcome of
the conference said that go far az they
were concerned they had no idea Of
what the republican conferees would
do. The purpose Of excluding the
democratic members OF the conference
IS to prevent their voting with those
of the republicans who may want to
insist on lower duties. The votes Of
the democrats might result in adop-
ton Of the lower rates Of the Payne
bill and the reductions made by the
senate.
The democratic conferees 1t was
said today will not be called into con-
ference until the republicans have
agreed to the report
Action Of House.
It 10 the opinion here that Monday
the house will take up and pass under
suspension Of the rules, the senate
joint resolution submitting to the
states an amendment TO the constitu-
tion authorizing the levying Of an in
come tax. Indications are that the
measure will receive the unanimous
vote OF tho house.

sIGsBEE TO TELL OF THE MAINE
Many Flags Used in Decorating
Theater for Sunday Nieht.

Col Edwin NJ Holbrook, commander Of
the Department Of the Potomac, GAR,
is taking an active interest in decorating
| the National Theater for the lecture Of
Admiral Sigsbee Sunday evening, May 16
and 25O garrison and post flags are to be
used on that occasion. Commander Hol-
brook will be assisted by Mrs. Annie E.
Hoagland and Mrs. Isabel Worrell-Ball
and the members of the l. W. B. Flag
Association. The stereopticon views with
which Admiral Sigsbee will illustrate his
lecture have never before been displayed
In public. and he had them prepared espe-
cfally for this lecture The lecture itself
Is new product, never having been de-
livered before. 1t is said that Admiral
Sigsbee will put the explosion of the
Maine before the public in an absolutely
new light. and that when he gets through
there will be no doubt in the minds of
any of the audience as to what caused the
explosion or who was the author of the
horrible affair.
Two historical facts will be illustrated
by this lecture. One is that the flag of old
Spain was the first banner to be raised
above the soil of the new west world in
1892, and at that time Spain's nag was
the one upon which the sun never SETS"
The second is that at the close of the
Spanish h-American war, of which the eX
plosiOn of the Maine was the opening in
cident the American nag had driven the
flag Of Spain off this continent and had
assumed the title laid down by Spain.
