TARIFF REVISION
BILL FINISHED
Extraordinary Precautions Taken. to
Keep the Schedule Changes
Secret But Reductions
are the Rule.

WASHINGTON March S.-Because
of the iron-bound oath which has been
taken by the members of the ways and
m eans committee of the house of rep
resentatives little definite information
has leaked out as to the actual provis-
ions o. the tariff bill, which is known
to be ready for submission at the open
ing of the extra session, March Is
next.
Never in the history of the framing
of tariff measures have the republican
members been so successful in keeping
actual terms and provisions from pub
lication. This accomplishment is the
more remarkable in view Of the fact
that the first print of the bill has
come from the government printing
Office and each republican member of
the committee has copy of it. Today
a copy of the bill was placed In the
hands of President Taft or at least
its general provisions will be run over
with a view of familiarizing him with
with the general lines along which the
republicans have been working.
The effort at secrecy for the bill was
carried to the extent of swearing in a
special corps of printers at the govern
ment printing Office, and after this in
dividing up the manuscript of the bill
in such small takes for each printer
that any one individual printer can
gain only the most vague idea as to
what it is all about.
