Always Ready to Correct, Where
Necessity Is Shown.
Eurkett of Nebraska Frees Himself
OF Some Very Warm Ideas.

WASHINGTON, June 1J.--lnduging m
n vigorous donunciation Of the COM
mitter on finance because OF its change
OF front over night on the subject OF
tobacco importations from the Philip
pine islands. Senator l5urkctt of Ne
bl.ayka standing face to face with
Chairman Aldrich today, declared that
its action looked to him like Gam"
of petty politics" He characterized
this action as An effort to hang tn"
senator from Wisconsin up in arr ana
finally declared that this event afford
ed senators a good opportunity to
vote a lack Of confidence in the cont
mittee"
This tart language followed Mir
Aldrich's statement that the commit :
tee would accept the amendment pro
posed by Senator Hulkeley to reduce
the number of cigars IL he admitted
free Of duty from the Philippines from
$50 900. 600 to 70.o00,o0O and the guam
titv of flier tobacco from / 800, 900 20
600 000O pounds. together with pro-
vision that the wrapper and filler TO-
bicco should be unStemmed when re-
ceiVing this concession
The support back Of the Bulkelcy
amendment was evident when the twt
Pennsylvania senators gave their sup
port to their colleagues from Connect
cut. all of whom had read strong peti
TONS from cigar makers for the action
they desired.
Nh. Aldrich, replying calmly, declared
that there We're men whose denunciation
was the highest communication. and said
the committees action involved no mys-
terry of petty politics, but that it pro
posed in the future to change Schedula

made, as it had done in the past. He eX-
PRESSED the opinion that the actual i'm
pcrtations from the Philippines, would
not equal the number named in -th
anne ndmcnt the committee had adopteI
and said that what it had done was t.
encourage a people who had been brought
under the American flag.
Encouraged by the committees action
Senator La Toilette proposed another
an:e ndment to reduce the free importa-
ton of cigars to 100000 annually, but
ills was defeated IS to y.
An interesting part of the days discus
sion was a declaration by Senator Borah
that he proposed to cast his vote for loos-
ching the band which tied the Philippines
t. the United States. He declared him.
self in favor of giving the Philippine is
lands an independent government and
said that in that respect his convictions
would force him to differ from his party
ana perhaps from the President of the
United States. as he did not believe CO.
lonial policy to be consistent with the
Constitution of the United States.
Senator Owen delivered a long speech
in criticism of the entire tariff bill as
formulated by the majority of the Senate
The Philippine islands amendment to
the tariff bill was technically under con-
sheraton until 6 o'clock, when it was
temporarily laid aside and Mr.. Aldrich
took advantage of the opportunity to pre-

q 9-YEAR-OLD THIEF
Takes Mrs. /. M. N. Stevens Watch
While She Is Addressing Meeting.

Newcastle, Me, June 15.-The THEY
ing propenSities of Il 9-year-old boy
We're practiced today upon Mrs. Lillian
NJ n. Stevens of Portland, president
of the National Womans Christian
Temperance Union, while Mrs. Stevens
was delivering a lecture on temperance
before several hundred children in the
congregational church here. She had
laid Il gold watch. chain and charm,
and Il gold pencil upon table near
which she was standing. The boy was
sitting not far away, and it is suppos-
ed that he edged near the table to
pilfcr the articles.
When Mrs. Stevens had finished her
remarks she turned to pick up the
jewelry, but it had vanished. A search
of the nearby corners failed to disclose
any Of the articles 1t was noticed,
however. that the lad was missing and
with Il knowledge of his traits, accord
ing to his teachers. they began to hunt
for him. He was found and gave up
the articles. 1t is probably that some
action will be taken in regard to the
child tomorrow.

those vessels were fishing. The schoon-
er's captain boarded the trawler which
had done the damage to his fishing
gear, and. brandishing a revolver, de-
manded that damage be paid for the
loss sustained but no heed was paid
and he was forcibly elected from the
steamers deck.
The following day a New Foundland
Schooner had all of her fishing gear
carried away and had to leave the
banks and lose several days in order
to obtain new fitout.
Many captains of fishing schooners
which have arrived in port the last few
days are Indignant, as frequently they
have been prevented from setting their
travis, owing to the presence on the
shoal grounds of these trawlers.
1t is the opinion of many that vio-
lent encounters will assuredly take
place during the summer months as q
result Of the encroachment of steam
trawlers on the grounds used by fish,
ing schooners and which threatens to
seriously interfere with the pursuit
of hand line fishing on the banks.

Whether or not tit for managing a
household it was a rather giraffe ad-
ministration that Mrs Gould conduct
ed at Castle Gould, according to most
of the testimony today Verbal clashes
with the manager of the great estate
heated arguments at the hen coop with
carpenters, one of whom testified that
she couldn't walk straight" at the
time; period when she remained in
her room for two weeks consuming
during that time seven bottles of bran
dy. with other liquors-these incidents
and others We're sworn to on the stand
Also, there WAS an account by u for
mcr steward of an exciting night,
W hen he testified, She wanted the house
locked, although Howard Gould was
on the front lawn. This, said the stew
ard, did not seem to appeal TO Mrs.
Gould as an argument against closing
the front door. and she told him to go
ahea and lock up To appeaSe her, he
testified, he shut the door but did not
lock it.
This was the night that Mrs. Gould
is said to have called her husband "a
little hound" a term which she applied
to him. as testified. after he had come
to her room to see what the matter
was. confusion having been spread
through the great castle by the ring
ing Of bells in Miss Gould's room and
the burglar alarm system. While most
of today's testimony was against Mrs.
Gould one witness, late this afternoon,
spoke in 'lcr favor. He is Charles II.
Dani:, of Glen cove. l.. L., an ice man
ufpcturrr, who formerly was engaged
III the business Of sinking aftcSlan
wells. He testified that in 1902 and 1905
he did considerable work on the Gould
estate and saw Mrs. Gould frequently.
He had never seen her intoxicated, he
said. but at times he knew she had
been drinking because he could "smcll
her breath. ON cross examination he
reiterated his statement that in all the
times he had been on the Gould es-
tate he had never seen Mrs. Gould in
toXiCatcd.
The carpenter who told Of the alleged
dispute at the chicken coop was the
last witness Of the day. He is William

Boost for Mineral Point.

One practical way in which loyal citi-
zens can promote the interests of Min
eral Point is to purchase return ticket
when leaving the city by railroad The
railroad companies, like the post office
department, judge the Importance of a
town by its capacity to produce revenue.
They do not take cities at Their own val
uation. 1t is the sum transmitted by the
local ticket agent that counts.
Therefore passengers should see to it
that when going away they pay for the
round-trip here. 1t will cost them 10
more. and the credit will not go to some
other city but to Mineral Point where
it belongs.
Mineral Point is one of the best pay
ing railroad towns in southwestern Wis
consin in both passenger and freight
traffic and it should receive credit for
every dollars worth of business that it
