Notes From Washington
From our Regular Correspondent.

Every possible effort is being
made by the Republican mem
bers of the Senate Finance Com
mittee to ascertain whether it is
not possible greatly to increase
the number of articles upon
which specific duties can be
levied in the new tariff bill.
This week silks and silk goods
have come up for discussion be-
fore the committee. There are
many ad valorem and compound
duties in the silk schedule, and
there has been frequent Com
plant that the government suf-
fers greatly because of the in
ability of it's custom officers to
ascertain proper appraisement
values.
It is understood that the great
advances which Japan is making
in silk manufactures are giving
the mem bers of the Senate FL
nance Committee no little con-
Germ. The silk manufacturers
of the United States say that if
ad valOrem rates are to prevail
millions of dollars in revenue
will be lost to this country be-
cause of the inability of the Of
ficials from the Treasury De-
partment to determine proper
valuations on articles manufact-
ured in the Orient,
President Taft has reiterated
his determination not to be
drawn into any controversy over
specific schedules of the tariff
bill. He has taken occasion this
week, to state that his general
policy has been very clearly out
lined in regard to the tariff; that
as stated before, it is his con-
viction that the party stands
pledged to a genuine revision,
and that If will become his dutv
to veto any measure which, in
his Judgement, does not-carry
out the pledge of the Republican
national platform. He has gone
so far as to express the broad
proposition that revenue should
be derived from the taxation of
luxuries rather than necessities
and he has approved the inheri-
lance tax and the maximum and
minimum provision contained in
the Payne tariff bill. Further
than this the Presidentpositively
declines to go and insists that
no weight is to be attached to
the assertions of members of
Congress who call on him and
then go away and quote him as
in favor of this Or that specific
duty. Mr.. Taft feels that un-
warranted use has been made of
chance expressions of bis to give
force to argument for or against
particular duties and wishes it
distinctly understood that such
statements are not to influence
Congress in it's consideration of
the tariff bill.
