NAY DELAY TARIFF Bill
House Leaders Have Trouble In
Keeping Members In Line.

Washington, March 81. - There is
imminent danger that the Payne tariff
bill may be seriously delayed in it's
consideration by the house. President
Taft was in conference with Speaker
Cannon, Representative Payne, the
floor leader. and Representative Dali
zell. It is understood that the house
leaders impressed the chief executive
with the difficulty being experienced
in getting Republican members in
line to vote for a rule which would
expedite the passage of the measure.
1t is conceded by several Republican
leaders that il would be impossible TO
pass a rule restricting amendments
to the bill until some time next week.
and then only by granting the de-
mands made by a number of members
that certain important schedules be
open to amendment.
Those members VINO oppose the
holding of a caucus do SO on the
ground that it would attract the at
tention of the country to the fact that
the members of the majority in the
house are at odds regarding the bill
AS q means CT settling the differences
that exist and securing general sup
port to a rule which would restrict
amendments entirely to those which
the ways and means committee viii
offer, they propose that the commit
tee should recommend changes that
would take the countervailing duty
clause on coffee out of the bill and
strike out the tariff on tea.

sued, and, completely exhausted, ar
rived in Mt. Vernon this morning

difficult for his three companions.

TO the young ladies, have been threat
ened, it is alleged, and are barricaded
in their home. Excitement is running

NOW FOR THE POULTRY SHOW
Entries Coming In Rapidly for Trans
mississIppi Associations Exhibit
at End of the Year.

Entries are pouring In fast for the
annual poultry show of the Transmissis-
slppi Poultry association. which will be
held at the Auditorium, December 81 TO
anuary 1. The secretary, F. C. Ahlqulst
is a busy man and he says that all in
dications point to the fact that the show
this year will be larger than ever.
Last year birds came from all parts Of
the country and the exhibits were said to
be superior to those of any show in the
country. II Is a recognized fact that it is
more important for the grower of high
grade poultry to exhibit at the omaha
show than at any show in the country for
several reasons. In the first place the
prizes are larger than those offered by
any other show and the exhibitors come
from a wider area of territory, giving the
exhibitor the advantage of showing to a
wider field.
This is the third year that the show
has been held in the Omaha Auditorium
and each year it has increased in inn
p~ortance. The problem of providing
sufficient space for the exhibitors will
confront the management this year, but
this will be taken care Of by the judicious
use of the space and by double decking the
coops.
