ALDRICH BILL BAD, LIKELY TO
 BE MUCH WORSE
Views of House Leaders
 Upon the Tariff Legisla-
 ton As It Comes from the : Senate.

What the House leaders think of the Aldrich bill.
 Representative Payne. (Republi- can. New York;. chairman of Ways and Means Committee:
 'I was for the House bill when it started; and I am yet to be con- vinced of the importance of these amendments put upon it in another place.
 Representative Clark. Democrat. Mo.), Democratic floor leader:
 'The Payne bill was bad, the Aldrich-Smoot worse. and judging from the failures of the past, the result of t he labors of the conference committee will be the worst of al.''
 Representative Townsend, (Re- publican. Michigan): Some of the Senate amendments are assaults upon the very founda- tion of the true protective principle and in violation of the Republican platform declarations"
 Representative Fitzger ald. (Demo- crat, New York;:
 ''The bill now in conference is about as bad a piece of legislation as it would be possible to make in any legislative body
 Representative Mann, (Republi- can, Illinois,:
 
 ing print-paper and wood-pulp are retained in the bill I shall swallow my desire to stand with the or ganization of the House. my desire to prove that the Republicans are able to write a tariff bill and vote against the conference vote"
 Representative Randall. Demo- crat, TexaS):
 ''The result ought to cause a blush to mantel the cheek of every Republican. The machine is in con- trol and the trusts control the ma chine.'
 Representative Worthin. Republi- can, s. D.):
 "The Payne bill was in it's main features a revision downward In the most important particulars the Senate has amended our schedules upward"
 Representative Henry, Democrat, Texas): "The Republican party promised revision downward You are here to-day for the purpose of breaking that pledge to the voters. You do not intend to redeem it and you have never so intended
 Representative Douglas, (Repub- iican. Ohio):
 'I would rather see the Dingley law stand as it is to-day than to vote for this bill"
 Representative Harrison, (Demo- crat. New York:
 'The sorriest man in the House to-day must be the chairman of the Ways and Means Committee He professes to have made an attempt to revise the tariff downward but his name will go down into history linked with the most iniouitous of a series of bad tariff billS."

WIDOWED CLERK
 GETS GO DAYS
SHE WAS CONVICTED ON 'sSPOT- TER'S'' EVIDENCE OF THEFT OF S1.35 IN GRANT STORES, WHERE SHE MANAGED
 BASEMENT
Protests Her Innocence
Declared that She Received Money In Her Pay Envelope-Earned $6 a Week, Was of Advanced Years and Cared for Daughter-Her Case Ex- cites Much Sympathy.

Cared Tor Daughter-Her Case EEK
 cites Much Sympathy.
 The case of Mrs Mary Waite, in the city court. this morning, brought forth some idea of the system used in stores in detecting employees who are dishon- est. Mrs. Waite was charged with embedding the sum of $1.35 from the William T. Grant 25 Cent Store. Judge Foster fined the accused $1 and costs and sentenced her to jail for 60 days. She appealed under bonds of $1oo.
 The evidence in this case. as in many others, was secured by a pre- arranged plan. that of marking cer- tain bills and coins and then using them in purchasing goods from the suspected employe. This work was performed by two striking young wom- en, Miss Emma F. Brady and a Miss Theresa Coss. Miss Brady, when ask ed her vocation by Prosecuting Attor- ney Delaney. said that she was a f1oorwalker for a dry goods firm in Boston. When pressed further she said that she came to this city to ''shop the help" and demurely acknowledged that she was "a female detective.' ' ''To shop the help" is to test their ly dressed young woman, and looked as if she might play a front row part among the ladies in the chorus of '"The Beauty Spot" Her companion in the work was every bit as stylishly dress ed. She was attired in a checkered skirt that spoke for itself. Both testi- fled to having purchased some pictures. towels, and ten yards of cheese cloth of Mrs. Waite. and to having seen her place the money they gave her in her pocket.
 Mrs. Waite testified that the Grant concern paid her but $500 week for managing the basement department. Every morning. she said, as each em- ploye enters the store she must give up her pocketbook at the office. Mrs. Waite declared that when the man. ager of the store, William E. Grant, charged her yesterday afternoon with having the marked money in her pos session, he grabbed her roughly and tore her dress in taking the money away from her.
 Mrs. wiate is a very respect able woman. She is more than 50 years of age, told an apparently frank story of how the money came in her possession.
 of her pay when she received it at noon so that she might, purchase some handkerchiefs in a department up- stairs for birthday present for Mrs. Rice, who is employed with Mrs. Waite. She said that she could not account for the money being marked unless she received marked money in her pay.
 MT. Grant in his testimony said that Mrs. Waite had proved a most faith full worker and never before had she shown cause in any way to be sus- pected of being dishonest.
 Mrs. Waite is a widow and poor. She has a 16 year old daughter who was in court this morning. Mrs. Waite said she found it difficult to make both ends meet on her salary, and had often pawned articles from her home. Her case, which is a sad one. will be heard again in the Common Pleas Court in SeDtember.

CAR=BARN=HARBOR
 GRAB AFTERMATH
MAYOR FINDS NEW HAVEN RAIL- ROAD WAS NOT OFFICIALLY
 INFORMED OF CITY'S
 SHAMEFUL SURRENDER
Grooved Rails Not Ordered
Vice President Never Had Been In- formed of Understanding Between Alderman Bullard and MT. MeIIen by Which Lees Railroad Surrender Plans Were to Be Executed

Plans Were to Be Executed.
 Citizens of the city, particularly the merchants of Main street, will be pleased to hear. that the time when permanent pavement will be laid in distant future. When Aldermen Gould and Bullard went to New Haven and fixed up the harbor line matter with MT. Mellen they reported to the Com mon Council that MT. Mellen had promised to lay grooved rails in Main street. When the matter was put through the council it was supposed that grooved rails would be secured by the railroad at once. This was a month ago. Since then Director Biltz has stated that he was ready to go ahead with the paving as soon as the railroad laid its grooved rails
 Mayor Lee told the Paving CommiS- sion last night that he telephoned to Vice President Fownley who has charge of the trackage of the company and he was surprised to hear that Bridgeport expected grooved rails to be laid, and was not aware of the agreement that had been made by MT. Mellen. The Mayor said that Vice President Townley had assured him that he would look into the matter at once and order the rails for Bridge port. The grooved rail which he told the Mayor he would secure is called the Boston" Engipeer McKenna said this was the best.
 If the railroad has to place. an order with a steel plant for the rails it is quite likely that another election will come and go before the dirt roadway in Main street is improved.
 Vice President Townley said the company had never received any noti- fication of the action of the council. Whether the slip was between Alder man Gould and President Mellen, or between President Mellen and Vice President Townley is not known. The Mayor caused an official notice of the action of the council sent to Vice Pres ident Townley last night.

Notes of The Market.

Business is very dull and slack for
cows and heifers again and buyers
were so bearish that sales in some in
stances We're lower again. The slump
in the market Thursday and Friday
takes off about all of the Improvement
made earlier in the week, and values
now are no higher than a week ago.
During the week Gamers and cutters
have been rather hard to sell most OF
the time. At the start prices showed
little strength. but lately nothing was
wanted in this department and the mar
Ike slumped off in very disappointing
way. Most of the Gamers sold at s2.40
@2.75 and the bulk of the cutters
brought s2.75@3.
This weeks receipts of an kinds Of
cattle We're nearly $4,000 smaller than
corresponding week a year ago. yet the
number of natives Increased 5000 over
year ago. The number of western
rangers, however, was $500 smaller
than year ago and Texans decrea sed
400.
Price of hogs have been somewhat
irregular the past week. yielding to re-
duced figures some of the time closing
at a general average of about $3.50 per
100 lbs for prominent markets, COM
pared with $3.50 week ago, $3.50 two
weeks ago, s655 a year ago, s6.05 two
years ago. $3.50 three years ago, $500
four years ago. The quality is without
notable change, more or less variable
and mixed.

MIGHT HAVE DEFEATED APPRo.
PRlATloN FOR AUTOS FOR
SHERMAN AND CANNON.
CHAMP cLARK,s FOLLOWERS
FAILED TO LINE UP
Congressman Norris Declares Cannon
Has Habit Of Running Over People
-Prosressives in No Hurry to Rally
to Support Of Payne for Speaker to
Succeed Cannon.
Especial Correspondence

Washington, Aug. Nothing but
the detection of a long list of democra-
tic votes prevented the house organiza-
ton meeting sharp defeat on the con-
sideration OF the urgent deficiency bill
About forty republicans voted for
Champ Clark's motion to reconmit
with instructions to strike out the APP
preparation of $4,000 to provide auto
mobiles for the vice president and the
speaker.
This was the weakest thing in the
bill. The house had cut it out, the SEN
ate restored it, and the conference
stood by the senate. The house was
decidedly opposed to the provision in
the first instance, and during the ami
mated debate over the conference re-
port it looked as IL the opposition
would win. But, while the ranks of
republican insurgency were stronger
than ever before during the session, the
democrats wouldn't stick. They lodged
the vote in large numbers, and by a
majority of thirteen the conference re-
port was passed.
/, During the discussion Representative
Norris of Nebraska, one of the chief
insurgents, declared that he was so
much opposed to this auto item that
he would vote against the entire report
rather than be committed to it.
The speaker is reported not to de-
sire this appropriation, so far as he is
personally concerned" said Mr.. Norris.
Then in the name OF God let us not
force him into the automobile habit.
The speaker already has a well-de-
veloped habit of running over people,
and I fear greatly that If he shall de-
velops the auto mania, he will become
a menace to the community"
The boom for Serene N. Payne for
speaker of the next house is gaining
ground space. The talk about it has
been more circumstantial and signifi-
cant in the last hours Of the session
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1909-08-07

than ever before. There is however a
wide divergence Of opinion among some
of the anti Cannon people as to its
wisdom.
If Cannon shall be reelected to the
house and ask another term as speaker,
the insurgent republicans will general
ly be willing to support Payne on the
anything to beat Cannon" theory. But
If Cannon is not member OF the next
house, or is not a candidate for speak
er, then most of the insurgents will line
up behind some other candidate than
Payne They point out that he Is q
part of the same old house machine,
that he is thoroughly committed to the
old rules, and that his selection would
befog the rules issue and leave the in
surgents with nothing really gained
from their long fight. Most of them
feel that their only proper course Is to
stay out of the next speakership eau
Gus unless they can see an assurance
of winning, and by preventing the elec-
ton Of a speaker. force along fight
which will bring their position to be
understood by the country, and in the
hope that in the end speaker of more
progressive persuasion may come out
of a compromise.

stocIser. and Feeders.

Demand during the week was a lit
tie better than usual Receipts are
gradually increasing and the outlet is
broadening. Many prospective feeders
who feel we'll assured that the corn
crop will be very large have shown
desire to buy rather freely, and
competition is stronger than 1t was
few weeks ago. There has been no
quotable Improvement in prices lately
because increased receipts have coun-
teracted the gain made in the demand.
Indications are that more cattle of the
feeder class will be wanted from now
on, tho 1t is not likely that buyers
will want to pay any higher prices.
They claim there is too much risk in
the operation of feeding and the gem
eral impulse Is to buy low or not at
all. AT the present time prices for
feeders are higher than a year ago,
tho fat cattle are lower. Traders
think that larger receipts would bring
about some reduction in prices and
naturally create a little better demand
from the country. Some extra choice
feeders sold this week at s5@5.25, with
a fair to good class at s450@4.75, and
good stockers at s3.7564.25. A good
many common to fair light grass
stockers for which the demand is weak
sold at 1925 $3.50.
