A GREAT SURPRISE
NEW COURT IS A GO.
Tariff COnferees Agree Upon the
Measure Unanimously.

Washington, July 14.-In the confer
ence on the tariff bill today the repre-
sentatives of the house agreed to ac-
cept the senate customs court pro-
vision.
The conferees spent the greater part
of the forenoon session considering the
court provision and it is understood
the conclusion to retain it was unani-
nous. The amendment was inserted
by the senate at the instance Of the ad-
ministration so that it may be said now
tho both branches OF the government
are fully in accord on the subject and
there is no doubt of its final retention.
The full title of the court is the
United States court of customs ap-
u.s." and it is = $50 that 1t shall
deal with all cases of appeal from the
decision of the United States board of
general appraisers.
1t is declared that the court shall he
always open for business and while its
headquarters are to be in New York
city, it is authorized to sit once a year
or of+e-er, in Boston, Philadelphia.
Baltimore, Savannah, New Orleans
alveston, Chicago, St. Louis. Seattle
Portland and San Francisco, and at
other places when designated by the
court itself.

line, a distance of 151 miles. was today
approved by Acting Secretary of the
Interior Pierce. The new pipe line will
extend to Baton Rouge, La.
Heretofore the pipe line facilities in
Oklahoma were wholly inadequate to
take care OF the production of oil The
construction of the new pipe line is the
cutgrowth of Secretary Ballinger's ac-
ton in amending the oil and gas reg
ulations by striking out the Common
carriers and "conf1scatory'' clauses,
one of the companies being willing
to extend their lines under the old
regulations. The new line will furnish
an outlet for a large surplus of OIL
which can not be handled especially
from the Glenn Pool and Muskogee
fields.

NO BARNES CONFERENCE
No Action Yet Taken on Deposit
Insurance Question.

Insurance Commissioner ChaS. Barnes
had not returned to his office at noon
today so the conference as regards his
action restricting the national bankers
Insurance company through their char-
ter has not yet been held All special
session talk is at standstil pending
this conference and the action decided
upon by the insurance commissioner.
If the latter official decides to act then
the special session plan will be aban-
doned for the time being, but in case
he decides not to take the advice of the
attorney general as regards his powers
in the matter there is no doubt but
that the governor will at once convene
the legislature in session extraordinary.
The poll of the legislators regarding
their action If a session is called Is
about completed, Many of the in
fiuential senators and representatives
have answered the question as regards
their co-operation in helping to
straighten out the tangle in the af-
f1rmative. but at the same time they
have gone further to say that they OPP
pose a special session. Here is Senator
Quincy's reply:
"Salina, Kan, July u, 1909.
wv. r. Stubs, Governor. Topeka, KAN
sas:
7 believe the insurance and banking
departments have ample power to
handle the situation and know that
ma jority of the directors of the inSur-
ance corporation have such power, con-
necessary. expensive and uncomfortable
judging from past experience.
FRED H QUINCY"
Senator Quincy also relieved his mind
further as follows to a reporter for the
Salina Journal:

bank in the state that is properly qua
ified have the privilege. if they so de-
sire. of participating In the state guar
anty law, the bankers insurance COM
pany is fully organized and ready for
business to insure such banks as do
not care to participate in the state law.
A majority of the S'-oo+ors of the in
surance company have given it out
that they were in favor of writing
policies upon the same terms and COLI
ditions as the state law No one Will
deny that they alone control the situa
ton as far as the insurance company
is concerned, and If they will simply do
as they say thev- ~ to do, this whole
matter will be settled, and it appears
to me that a special session is wholly

ton to this the attorney general has
stated that the i-~---ance department

laws of this state, which, IL true, does
away with any necessity whatever of a

Trinity Reform.

At last the Trinity Church corpor-
alton has bowed to the storm of pub
lie dissapproval which has been vent
ed upon 1t for many years past and
has promised to reform. The aban-
donment of historic st. Johns chap
ell, because 1t was no longer profita-
BILE, will take place Monday, but it
has been decided to reopen the chap
Ell on May for evangelical services.
The parochial work of st. Johns,
however, will be transferred to St.
Luke's and after the storm has sub
sided it is more than likely that the
original plan for its abandonment
will be carried out.

test to the Guardians of a holy trust,

now promises to take immediate steps
to render sanitary and healthful the
reeking tenements from which it has
so long received the wages of sin and
misery, disease and death.
OF all the corporations of the land.
Trinity church is the most irresponsi-
BILE. 1t answers to nobody and the
suspicion that its immense trust is
administered for personal profit has
more than once found utterance with
out denial. If the long silence is at
last to be broken and the corporation
managed in such a manner as to be
no longer stencil in the nostrils of
decent men, 1t will be the result of
the CONSTANT agitation which has been
carried on in newspapers and maya
zines for years.
Trinity's wealth is variously esti-
mated at from sac, 700, 900 to $780,
100000. A considerable portion of
this vast estate consists of tenement
buildings which are VIGOROUSLY the
worst and most unsanitary in the
city. After long period of contempt
uous disregard of all accusations, fol-
lowed by indignant denials. Trinity
at last admits that its properties are
not all they should be and humbIy
promises immediate reform.
II is a striking commentary on the
brand of Christianity practiced by
Trinity that this reform should have
had to come without. brought about
by the indignant criticisms of secular
newspapers and periodicals, by the
men and women who seek to practice
on six days of the week what Trinity
breaches on Sunday.
