some WASHINGTON TALK
ABOUT MEN and THE TARIFF

WASHINGTON, April 29.-The
part Senator Bailey of Texas has
taken so far in the tariff discussions
has whetted the appetites of the large
number of gallery visitors for more.
1t is expected that soon he will take
the floor in his own right and make
an extended speech, in which he will
attack vigorously what he regards
as vicious and unfair provisions in
theh bill constructed at star-chamber
sessions by the republican members
of the finance committee.
The Texas statesman, when it
comes to delivery, has no superior in
either branch of congress. He is gen
orally recognized as one of the most
forceful and convincing debators In
public life. Physically he is a splen-
did type of man, and that goes lcss
a long way in helping an orator, no
matter how gifted In language he
may be. Mr. Bailey is fortunate in
having the finest of health also, and
hardly knows what the word fatigue
means, for he is in the prime of life
For weeks he has been preparins
himself for this forensic encounter,
and if the shining lights on the re-
publican side of the chamber wish

DEMANDS DAMAGE
FOR FALSE ARREST

NEW YORK, April "a suit for
$4,000 damages for SANDER that bias
been instituted in the supreme court
here by George w. Gibbs, a sales
agent, against the Columbia Phono-
graph company involves his arrest
in British Guiana and his subsequent
Imprisonment at Georgetown for 81
days as the result of which Gibbs has
filed a claim for 100000 for false
arrest against British Guiana with the
state department at Washington. No
tice Of this 100000 claim was attach
ed to the papers in the $4,000 Sian
der suit which were filed today. In
his complaint Gibbs said he went to
British Guiana last November as the
representative of the Columbia Phon
ograph company and of the Kuhn-Lib-
hey company, subsidiary of the
Standard Oil company. He declares
that while he was there he drew a
sight draft for $500 on the phono-
graph company and got a Georgetown
monograph dealer to cash it. He
said that in spite Of the fact that he
had $1,100 commissions coming TO
him from the New York company, the
company cabled to the man who cash
ed the draft, telling him that the COLI
pany would not honor it and advised
the George town man to have Gibbs
arrested.
Gibbs says that the dealer was
friend of his and when he explained
that he really had money coming
from the photograph company, the
| local dealer turned the cablegram
| over to him and declined to take any
action.
Gibbs says he had this cablegram
| in his pocket when he was boarding
| the steamer to come on December
| % last. He was then notified that the
chief of police wanted to see him and
when he went to headquarters he
was confronted with warrant for the
arrest of one Raymon Garron Ceuves
for embezzling $4,000 from a San
| tiago Cuba, branch Of the Royal Bank
of Canada. He protested that he was
not Ceuves, although he said he learn
ed later that he looked like the Gu
ban. Then he was locked up any
how, and when he was searched ant
the cablegram found in his pocket
sent to his friend, the police took &
tighter grip on him, although declar
ing that they were holding him solely
on the embezzlement charge.
Gibbs says his troubles were inten
sified because the police found two

find his anxious and willing for the
combat.
Senator Aldrich, the controlling
spirit on the republican side, has
really done the public a service in
having the bill at an early stage con-
sidered paragraph by paragraph. This
has never before been done with a
tariff bill in the senate. Heretofore,
as recently mentioned in this cores.
pondence, the general debate drag
ged along. When the Dingley law
was passed the senate republicans
nearly all absented themselves from
the chamber while the democrats
were speaking. They did very little
interrupting or answering as they
were acting under instructions from
their leaders. The republicans then
were certain of enough votes to put
the bill through in the shape prracti-
cally arranged by the majority mem
bers of the committee.
The object of Mr.. Aldrich in having
the bill considered this early by par
agraphs was evidently to cut short
as much debate as possible the gen.
eral debate He doubtless thought
this would be an effective way, but
as votes on items are liable to be
taken at any hour there is a pretty
full attendance. Quite a number OF
the republicans are hard to hold In
line as Mr.. Aldrich has already dis
covered.
First, there was Senator Cum
mings of Iowa, who, while declaring
himself a protectionist and repub-
lican to the core, complained bitterly
of certain features of the bill which
he denounced savagely as sheltering
monopoly, to express what is conf
monty called the Iowa idea" Sen
ator Cummins also advocated the
adoption of the Bailey amendment
for an income tax.
When that blunt old Norwegian
from Minnesota, Senator Nelson, falr'
" snorted when he got up to discuss
the cotton, glass, wooden and other
schedules. These outbreaks on the
republican side of the chamber pro
voked the believers in high protec
ton to hop right up and try to breah
down the truthful statements of Cum
Minis and Nelson.
| Such independent talk is making
Mr.. Aldrich rather uneasy. He ism
in the least afraid that he Will no
| be able to muster votes enough u
pass the bill substantially as he want'
to, but the brethren in the republican
ranks are saying things that make
him feel uncomfortable. He expected
attacks from the democrats, but tt
have them from those in his owl
party will open the eyes of the coun
try to the man equalities and favor
scattered throughout the measure.
Senators Paynter will shortly max
a tariff speech. He is getting up hi
