A REV|SER
 DOWNWARD. Nelson Backed by CuInnils Supports the Starch Trust 4 MATTER OF GEOGRAPHY
The Second Reading of the Tariff Bill in the Senate Concluded. Works of Art Twenty Years Old and Ra- dium On the Free List.

Washington, June 12.-Having com- pleted the consider ltion of the items in the tariff bill that have been pass ed over under objections by senators during it's second reading. the ad- journment of the senate today marked an important period in the progress of the measure.
 When the bill is again taken up it will be upon its third reading for the final disposition of the items upon which the most pronounced objections have been made.
 On completing the second reading of the bill number of times in the free list were disposed of Works of art, over twenty years old. and collections illustrating the progress of arts over 100 years old, were retained in the free list by a vote of 53 to 15.
 The amendment was defended by Re- publicans and democrats on the ground that it's result would be both educa- tiOnal and refining and that works of art of the age indicated could not come into competition with the products of American painters and sculptors. The retention of this amendment will per- init the great art collection made by J. P. Morgan at an expenditure of stored in London, to be brought here.
 The starch industry received protke tion by a reversal of the recommenda- tions made by the committee by which tapioca and sago would be subject to Ia duty of one cent a pound when not imported for food.
 Senator Nelson opened the fight up on the free admission of these products on the ground that they were used largely by the cotton cloth and oil cloth industries, in competition with starch made from potatoes and corn He was supported by Senator Cum mins Both senators were taken to task by MT. Aldrich for attempting to revise the tariff upward, the Rhode Island senator claiming that if the committee had suggested a duty on products that could not be raised in this country for the purpose of pro- tecting other products when they came in competition, it would have been roundly denounced. He also suggested that there was a combina- ton in the starch industry.
 Messrs. Frye and Burrows, both of whom have starch factories within their states. came to the rescue of the western senators, and Senator Aldrich, surrendering in the face of this oppo- sition, accepted the amendment by which the tapioca and sago flour will be admitted free only when used for food. This will place the duty upon the articles when consumed by the cot ton or oil cloth industries. Crude potash, potash carbonate, caustic pot ash and radium were placed upon the free list. The senate adjourned until Monday

New York. June 12.-The demonstra- tive bidding up in todays market of miscellaneous lot of industrials stocks and specialties not usually conspicuous did not serve to keep up an effective demand for the usually active trading stocks.

SeVenteenChaPged With hInCit-
 ing Disorder In Hawaii REVOLUTIONARY DOCUMENTS
A Recommendation to Tint the Flag of the Rising Sun With the Blood of the Ob- stinate Planters Who Were Holding Out Higher Wages

Honolulu, June 12.-Seventeen Japanese, leaders in the strike of the Japanese plantation laborers, of whom about 5000 are out. were in dicted by the grand jury late this afternoon, on charges of having con- spired to incite disorder in the Ha- waiian islands.
 This action followed the some what sensational disclosures yes terday when a search of the offices of the Higher Wage association and the Japanese newspaper Jiji by the authorities, revealed incendiary let ters, reports and other correspond dence, tending to show that a con spiracy was in prospective forma- tiOn among certain Japanese to wrest the control of affairs in the island from the whites.
 So important did the authorities regard the discovery of what appear ed to be a plot among some of the strike leaders, that the grand jury was hastily summoned today, and the documentary evidence seized in the raids, was laid before that body. The deliberations of the inquisitorial body which interrogated numerous witnesses during the day, was fol- lowed by the finding of true bills against seventeen strike leaders. The investigation was not completed to- day and the grand jury decided to convene again tomorrow (Sunday) and resume inquiry.
 Among the correspondence be- tween strikers and some of their leaders. seized by the officers is the following: Japanese strikers are facing the planters with enough powder, lead and food, to make vic tory sure in the end. Now is the time to exalt the name of your nation and tint with blood the flag of the Rising Sun. Against those who oppose our action we must be ready with the hammer of iron and rain of blood, to make the obstinate and blind planters reflect and to exterminate Sometaro Sheba, the traitor editor of the Shinpo and his followers. We must prepare.
 If higher wages are not obtained the sword may visit Sheba at any time and he should provide for the livelihood of his family which will be left"
 The Nippu, the organ of the strik- CTS, denounees the arrest of the lead CTS and declares that should any ex- traOrdinary thing happen it will not be the fault of the peaceful strik- CTS, but that the whole blame will rest upon the capitalists and au- thorities who have resorted to op- pression.
 Bonds for the appearance of the arrested leaders were quickly furn- ished and the seventeen men were released
