THRILL OF CIRCUS
RACES RETAINED

When the Carl Hagenbeck train
ed animal shows were combined
with the Wallace show, it was
feared that it might be necessary
to shorten the circus program on
account of the many acts given by
the wild beasts. When it was sug-
gested that the hippodrome races
be cut out. Mr.. Wallace was up in
arms. He said the hippodrome
would not only be continued, but
he would have even better racing
than heretofore. BY great deal
of scheming the combination of the
two performances has been secured
without losing any feature.
The Hagenbeck-W Wallace combin-
ed shows will be in this city June

BROWN AMENDMENTS ADOPTED
EEPRISALS IN CASE OF PRINT
PAPER DISCRIMINATION.
President May Impose Double Duty.
Wood Pulp Free Unless Ma
tions Provoke Action.

The Senate yesterday revised its previ-
Gus action on the print paper and wood
pulp schedule, agreeing upon amendments
relating both to pulp and paper in place
of amendments hitherto adopted.
The amendments which were yesterday
accepted were those proposed by Senator
Brown Of Nebraska in accordance with
suggestions made In his speech on the
subject a few days ago.
When, after disposal Of the agricultural
implements schedule. the Senate re-
verted to the pulp and paper provision.
Mr. Aldrich stated that he was prepared
to accept the amendments. which had
been proposed by Mr.. Brown. The
Nebraska senator was apparently quite
as much surprised as pleased at this turn
of affairs In his favor.
The Brown amendment for the pulp
provision is complete substitute for
House paragraph 4O2.
1t provides for the free admission OF
mechanically ground wood pulp. but au-
uhoriZeS the imposition OF duty OF one
twelfth of q cent per pound. dry weight,
upon the PRONUNCIATION Of proclamation
by the President declaring that any
country, dependency or province has un-
duly Disseminated against the United
States by the imposition OF an export
duty or export charge OF any kind upon
pulp wood, wood pulp or printing paper
exported into the United States or has
forbidden or restricted the expectation
of any Of these articles directly or In
directly.
On chemical wood pulp a duty of one
sixth Of a cent per pound Is PROVIDED
on the unbleached article. and OF one
fourth Of a cent per pound on the
bleached article. In case OF discri1nlna-
ton by the exporting country these duties
are to be doubled.
The amendment to the paper para
graph consists in a proviso authorizing
the doubling OF the duty on newspaper
print paper in case of discrimination.
This paper is valued at cents pound
or less and, according 10 the terms OF
the House bill, is made dutiable at the
rate of five-tenths of a cent per pound
Explaining his amendments, MT Brown
said that under them wood pulp Wouiu
ne admitted free, but that in case OF
discrimination on the part OF the DO
,ninion Of Canada or any of its provinces,
etc, upon proclamation of the President
a duty could be applied. This provision
reversed the order of procedure as pro-
yided by the original committee amend
ment.
Senator Clapp expressed his disapprova
of any provision allowing the President
TO place a duty on wood pulp or paper
and said he would discuss the matter
again when the bill reaches the Sehale
in a parliamentary sense.
After little further discussion ootf
amendments were agreed 10 without ui-
vision.
