EXPLANATION OF +.
THE TARIFF BILL
CHAIRMAN PAYNE OF NEW YORK
CONCLUDES HIS LENGTHY
DISCOURSE.
STOOD UP NEARLY FIVE HOURS
He Said that the New Tariff Bill
Would Not lnjure the Tin
Plate or Steel File
Industries.

Washington, Mar 24.-Occupying
the entire session of the house yester.
day Mr.. Payne of New York, chairman
of the committee on ways and means,
concluded his speech in explanation Of
the tariff bill He was on his feet al.
most all of the FIVE hours and ten min.
utes that he had the floor AT times he
gave evidence OF being greatly
fatigued and leaned on his desk hoping
in that way to get little rest.
The majority leader began his
speech yesterday morning in no par.
ticularly good frame of mind, but as
the day wore on he exhibited the best
of humor. He closed amid the plaudits
of the Republicans.
Arguments Covered Wide Field.
His arguments covered a wide field.
He took the position that the bill
would not injure the tin plate or steel
file industries of the United States and
that free hides would not be a menace
to the farmers. He discussed the in.
heritance tax at great length, and said
II was preferable to an income tax
because it would not give rise to per
jury or fraud. He held to the view
also, that an income tax was wholly
unconstitutional.
The minority leader, Mr.. Clark OF
Missouri, followed, and had proceeded
but minute or two when, at the sug.
gestion of Mr.. Payne, he suspended.

Army in Philippines.

In the report of the chief of the
bureau of insular affairs to the secre-
tary of war, the following statements
regarding military operations in the
Philippines are made:
With the minor exception of the
trouble wiJh the Moro outlaw, ,Iikiri.
on Jolo Island, where no constabularv
are stationed, that organization has
maintained quiet and ORDER in all parts
of the Philippines through6Ht the year
without the active intervention of the
army. Yet the army is not withoaf title
to the credit therefor, nor should it be
without pride in the achievement. The
organization and efficiency of the con
stabulary are almost entirely the work
of carefully selected officers of the
army, and reflect credit not only on the
individuals but on the military service
In this connection it is not inappro-
pirate to invite your attention to the
very valuable asset which the war de-
partment has in the varied and broad
ening experience which has been ac-
quired by the young officers detailed on
this important duty Eight captains

American Troops in the Philippines

their duties in the United States. Even

Better Naval Militia.
WASHINGTON, December "a bill
having for it's object the bringing of
the naval militia under the same bene-
fits and training as the Dick bill made
possible for the National Guard re-
ceiyed the unanimous Endorsement OF
the national naval militia association
at the annual convention which began
here today Delegates from twenty
three States were present and listened
to speeches by Assistant Secretary of
the Navy Beekman Winthrop and Com
mander WHITEWATER, chief of the
photographic service.
Mr.. Winthrop discussed the necessity
! for an insular naval militia, based on
experiences in the Philippines and while
| he was governor of Porto Rico. He
| indicated that he later would make a
more definite statement of his views
along that line. Winthrop expressed
confidence that the proposed naval mill
/ tia bill could be put through con-
gress at the present session if 1t
were given proper support. He gave
attention to the Importance Of the
navy having an organized mill
| tia of ten thousand men which could
be called upon in time of war to man
its battleships within seventy-two
hours notice. Mr.. Winthrop advocated
a naval militia bureau in the navy dc
partment.
Commander Winterhalter discussed
the Importance of corrected charts te

CHICAGO, December 10-The West
ern railroads have made announcement
that after January / the United States
government viii no longer be honored
with reduced fares other than normal
one way cost fares and such as is paid
for transportation. The government al
ways asks for bids upon the moving of
troops and selects the route by which
the greatest economy is offered. The
formal decision of the railroads will
place a limit to which these low offers
of rates can go.
The decision was arrived at by the
Western Passenger Association lines
some weeks ago, subject to the con-
| currence of the Southwestern Passenger
Association. The latter association has
| just advised that the recommendation
! is acceptable to its members and the
| change will be made effective January
| 15
Over roads which are constructed on
| right of way which was granted to the
railroad company by the government at
the time of construction the government.
| is entitled to a Gland grant deduction
on its rates of fare, usually amounting
to about so per cent of the charge.
Wherever this deduction is applicable
nothing less than the normal tariff one
way, first and second-elass, limited
fares, and colonist fares from the start
ing point to the destination, less the
land grant deduction, is to be quoted
or rendered to or through the terri
tory covered by the associations fol
the movement of the United States
Army, Navy, Marines or others travel
ing on United States government trans
portation requests. All such quotations
are to be restricted to the conditions OF
the tariffs under which the fares arc
quoted. such as class of accommoda
tions limits, etc.
The recommendation adopted further
states that "reduced fares, such as ex
cursion, round trip, one way or round
trip party fares, and all other than nor
nal tariff one way first and second-class
limited fares and colonist fares be no
recognized or used in establishing fare
for transportation issued on United
States government requests; that tariff
showing such reduced fares be sup
plemented or reissued to provide tina
. they will be applicable only where casl
is paid on delivery of tickets.
The decision, it is said, is arrived a
partly from the long delay which ha
been usual in securing returns 70
transportation for the government
Whereas the usual low rates to other
| are on a cash basis, the roads hav
had to wait long periods for appropria
tions by the government in payment TO
| the moving of troops. etc.

lined up bee that he saw at work
and after following it sfor several
miles, crossing lake aud mud and
bogs and cat-tail flags, he came to
an old unused boat, bottom up, that
had evidently been blown there dur
ing hurricane that had swept the
coast, and in the bow of tuat dere-
llct he found nearly hundred
pounds of beautiful honey. Fish
ing stories are not numerous but
Kirk Knox caught the best one till
