He maintains that the failure OF the
South in the past TO get it's products

billions OF dollars.
Break Not Long.
While Senator EIlIins is not expected
long to remain at odds with such lead
ers as Aldrich and Hale. the fact is
that the spirit Of revolt against the
tariff bill as ii stands in the House
is strong in the Senate. 1t is impossible
to tell what the disaffected Republican
Senators, with the aid Of the Demo
Gratis, may not be able to accomplish.
Mr. EIkins' outbreak IS regarded as
preliminary 10 a considerable exodus Of
Republican Senators from the reserVa-
ton.
The makeup Of the Finance Com
n1ittee has called no open protest eX-
cept from West Virginia But there
Is a great deal OF muttering over 1t
and dissatisfaction with the way IN
which IL fails 10 recognize some sec
tions fof the country. Senator War
ner's friends wanted him to get on
the committee. Senator Warren was
anxious to get on. The Mississippi
valley was left almost entirely unrep-
resented, except by Senator Cullom Of
nlinof-, who is now too old TO stand
dissatisfaction and the fact that New
England has succeeded In getting three

in changing TO a considerable degree
the complexion OF the tariff bill before
il IS finally passed.

BIG INSURRECTION
Makeup of Finance Committee
Only Protested BY West
Virginia Senators.

The outcry IN the Senate by Senator
Stephen B. Elkins against the dictation
by New England in the fashioning OF
the tariff bill IS causing no end OF talk
at the Capitol. How far the revolt that
the West Virginian and his colleague,
Senator Scott, have started with will
go IS one Of the uncertainties OF the
situation that makes it hard to tell what
the outcome OF the efforts to revise the
tariff will be.
Elkins ordinarily is one Of the fore
most supporters of the organization in
the Senate. But in this case he pro-
tests that the tariff is being revised In
the interest Of New England. and that
the South. In which he includes West
Virginia, is getting the worst of the
deal He holds that in it's efforts to get
free raw materials in order TO help its
manufactures, New England, with its
three members on the Finance Com
mittee, has gone too far. Senator Ell
kins is a high protecuonist, and does
not subscribe to the doctrine Of free
raw materials. lie holds that coal. iron.
lumber, hides. and the like are entitled
to their just share OF protection. Like
Cushman Of Washington he does not
want the tariff to be "a speckled egg

Talk about the Capitol Is that Sena-

with several Representatives, including
Langley of Kentucky. Hughes of West
Virginia. Slenp Of Virginia, Humph-
reys Of Washington, Mondeu of Wyom-

Pennsylvania, and others. This is
taken to mean that a movement has
been started not only in the Senate
but in the House to affect a combina-
ton that Will stand guard over the
articles on which the West Virginia

coal, lumber, iron ore, and the like.

CUT IN DIVIDEND
CONSERVATIVE MOVE
National Metropolitan Bank
Directors Wisely Decide to
Strengthen Reserve Item.

The directors of the National Metro
politan Bank have declared a semi-an-
nual dividend Of 4 per cent, payable
April Is. to shareholders Of record April
5. books being closed from to the
Is inclusive.
The announcement of the reduction in
the annual dividend from u TO a 6
per cent basis caused no material sur
prise In financial circles, as it was
recognized as in line with the best
principles Of good banking.
1t would have been an easy matter
for the directors to have continued the
dividend on the old rate, the more so as
1t has been actually earned during the
last six months. but President White
and his directors considered it good
banking to add something to the sur

The book value OF the stock (the ac-
