OTHERWISE THE TARIFF BILL
WILL BE SENATE'S.
LUMBER DUTY is TO BE 81
President Taft Demands That Rate
and Reductions on Many Other
Commodities.

W6shlngton-According to we'll
informed members of congress, one
week or ten days will suffice for the
conference committee to reach an
agreement ON the tariff bill and the
programme to follow the lines OF
the senate bill, as far as can be
done without provoking a veto. The
president wants free oil, lumber at
81, hides at per cent, with u cor
responding reduction ON all leather
goods. iron ore free and the corpor-
alton tax put at 1 per cent instead
of 2. Il Is safe to assume that the
presidents wishes In these respects
will be granted.
Cheaper cotton and woolcn goods
aud cheap hosiery and women's
gloyes--thc former demanded by the
house aud the latter by the senate
promise to bo among the most stub.

grosslonal conference on the tariff
bill.
Many members express the opln-
Ion that the house will yield on cot
ton aud wool aud senate on gloves
and hosiery In compliance with the
protccllonlsts ideas OF standpattlsm.
II this should bo outcome. II is pre-
dlcted that vigorous protests would

from tho advocates OF downward re-
yiAion.

Many banks, especially those In

night to run to the rescue. The exact
method and devicesthat are used are
kept rather secret, for fear the bur-
glars themselves might learn too much
about them, but 1t may be explained
that one part of the apparatus is an
extremely sensitive relay located at
the central office. This delicate In
strument closes a local circuit which
sounds the alarm the moment there
is the slightest disturbance Of the hid

get to work with their drills and their

law would be upon them.
In addition to protecting vaults and
safes from the direct attacks of rob-
bers, electricity affords another safe
guard by furnishing light which floods
the premises with its searching beams.
Indeed, many banks, stores and ware
houses rely mainly upon the electric
light, without which the thickest walls
and the strongest and most compli-
,ated locks would be useless. They
turn it on ar night and leave their
window shutters wide open, so that

RETURNS To CLAIM
FORTUNE

Boston, Sept. 20.-The petition of
Daniel Blake Russell of Dickinson, N.
D., for a share of the estate of the
late Daniel Russell of Melrose came
up for hearing today in the Middle
sex probate court at East Cambridge.
Daniel Russell died several years
ago, leaving an estate of half mil
lion dollars. The estate was willed
to his son, William G. Russell, with
the provision that half share should
go to another son who had been miss
ing for many years in the event he
should return.
Last summer Daniel Blaze Russell,
a cattleman of North Dakota, put in
an appearance in Melrose and laid
claim to half the estate, alleging
that he was the missing son of Daniel
Russell. He told a tale of having
run away with a circus in his youth
and of having wandered over large
part of the world, finally locating in
North Dakota He declared that he
had only learned of his fathers
death. Despite the fact that the
claimant appeared familiar with the
family history and apparently was
recognized by a number of tho olir-
residents CT Melrose. William G. Rus
sci declined to acknowledge the man
as his brother. The North Dakota
man has employed counsel and taken
the matter into court with a view
to establishing his identity and Sc
curing what he claims is his rightful
inheritance
