successful, however, was Rev. j. P.

paid his respects to so-ca|led modern

WHILE in Chicago on Saturday and
while standing 10 the lobby Of a hotel
waiting for a train, Mr.. Charles M.
Schwsb, president Of the Bethlehem
Steel Company, said;
Out the tariff on steel or anything
else you please. American labor can
stand It. / don't care. l believe in a
reduction. / feel just as Andrew Oar
negie does on that matter. American
labor can make the best steel in the
world and with it we can compete with
the world. know nothing about other
lines. that Is, technically, but | have
enough confidence 10 American labor to
believe that the tariff can be cut without
iDjuriug business.
Now this is perfectly dreadful for the
i'staud. patters" 10 Congress, who are
trying to persuade the people that the
duties on steel and everything else
shonld be lowered But both Messrs.
Schwab and Carnegie are masters OF
their business and know what they are
talking about.

MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 20, 1909.

To KEEP down and coordinate ex-
pepditures Of The government, President
Tai. has decided on plan adopted from
the British system, which is generally
regarded as the most nearly perfect In
the world. Hereafter, the Cabinet is to
constitute q budget committee over
which the secretary of the treasury shall
have 8 general supervision, after the
fashion of the British chancellor of the
exchequer, the president exercising the
same sort of fual control as that exerled
by the chancellor. 10 the new arrange
meui the president hopes to have the CO.
opersiion OF the newly formed budget
committee OF the Senate and OF the SINH
lar committee which the House Is ex-
pected 10 create next winter. The new
procedure indicates q determined pur-
pose on The part Of the administration to
cut of the extrsVRgsnces tost nave crep'
into the various departments. Should
this be done, millions Of money could be
saved annually aud the-tsrif could be
easily lowered. Why only few days
ago the census commissioner Withdrew
his request for fourteen millions to pay
the expense of taking the next census
and substituted one for eleven millions,
giving depleted treasury as his reason
for the lover estimate. All zane people
know that the condition Of the treasury
should have nothing to do with the cost

lions aud voted for the Fitzgerald
amendments to the House rules, defended
his action. He declared that the caucus
had no binding power, the democrats
never having held any thiug but confer
ences. He condemned the minority
leaders for having kept their policy
secret from the membership and said
that the committee OF fifteen would have
reported rules favorable to the democrats
and not to the republicans. He denied
that the democratic leaders had any au-
lhority 10 enter into an alliance with the

THE NJ. P. CONFERENCE.

The Maryland Annual Conference Of
the Methodist Protestant Church will
meet In ST.. Johns Church, BIl!imore,
on April 7lh.
Oue OF the interesting subjects which
will likely take up some OF the time Of
the conference will be the application
of new congregation to join the body.
This congregation is located in Alexsn-
dria, and comprises many members oil
the Methodist Protestant mother church
10 this city. More than year ego
there was a split smoDg the members
Of the mother church and some OF them
withdrew, and, securing the old First
Presbyterian church building started q
new congregation.
These members made such rapid
strides that at the last session of the
conference, in Snow Hill, Md, they
made application for admission as q
separate and distinct church to be known
SIS Bethany Church. After a heated
discussion, the application was rejected
By an aye and nay vote OF 68 to
"a. Since the organization Of the church
the pulpit has been filled BY Rev. W.
NJ Poissl, 3 retired minister OF the con-
ference, and it is more than probable
tba. the congregation will apply once
more for admission. The pastor Of the
mother church Ia Alexandra is Rev.
G. l. Humphreys.

IT Is stated that two hundred and
6fy amendments will be offered to the
pending tariff bill by the ways and means
committee. The committee yesterday
met and begsn the consideration and
preparation of the various changes to be
proposed. Such a number of amend
ments rs are now conceded to be neces-
sary to put the bill 10 such shape that
Il can pass the House Indicate
not only widespread discomfort in
the membership with the measure,
but q willingness to make concessions
npon the part Of the committee due I'M
auestlonably to expressions OF public
sentiment which have poured In upon
II. Members of the ways and means
committee say most Of the changes will
be of minor importance, aud to sllsy
suspicion that they are being forced to
recede from their original position they
cite the fact that similar number oil
changes we're made 10 the DiDgley law
after it bad been presented to the House.
The Senate made more than 800 changes
in the Dngley MEASURE, sending 1t back
TO the House virtually q new bill. 1t is
known that a great number Of the
amendments contemplated will be made
for the purpose of obtaining a republi-
can msjority 10 favor Of the bill. tits

owned by Mrs. Brennan.
1t was shown a. the triSl that Mrs.
Farmer, In November, 1908, bad called
at the Office OF Francis P. Burns, au
attorney, declared tba! she WAS Mrs.
Brennan, and executed a deed of her
property to Mrs. Mary Farmer. Two

Brennan disappeared on April q aud
the next day Mr.. and Mrs. Farmer
called at the Brennan home and dis
possessed Brennan and bis child. He
disputed their right, but the certified
copy of the deed, apparently in bis
wife's handwriting, WAS served on him.
He looked for his wife and not finding
her, called upon Sheriff E. Bellinger to
locate her. The latter with squad OF
officers went to the Brennan home aud
searched the premises when the mutilsted
remains Of Mrs. B ennsu we're found In
