SAYS PETTUS HAD It
ALL HIS WAYFROM

Manager for Albuquerque Boy
Enters Vigorous Denial That
He Was Ever Gfoggy in CHM
marion Bout,

That Bill Pettus not only whipped
John r. Gricr in the eighth but that
he had the Denver boy whipped from
the start in their bout at Cimarron ON
saturday night is the statement OF Pet
tus' manager who returned home with
the albuquerque boy yesterday.
"The account of the bout at Cimar-
ron, sent to the Morning Journal from
that place Saturday night, does a grave
injustice to Pettus,' he said. There
never was a time either in the first
round or any other round that Pcttus
was groggy. The account telegraph
ed from Cimalron states that Pettus
was worsted in the first, firth and sew
nth rounds. These rounds belong
ed clearly 10 Pettus. He was master
Of the situation from the time the men
entered the ring and he never lost his
control for a minute. Grier put up a.
good fight. but he is no match for
Pettus and the Wonder is that he last
ed until the eighth In the eighth every
one was able to see clearly that Pet
tus could win the fight whenever he
desired and the finish was not a SUR
prise to anyone. 1t is entirely un
fair to Pcttus to say that there was
a single instant when the result was
in doubt

spoke in favor of higher duties on
the ground that lower duties mean
lower wages to mill workers.
Speaking of the large delegations
Of women which protested against
raising the rates on hosiery. Mr.. Dol

upon the hnance committee AFTER hav-
ing called first on the speaker Of the

as to that replied Mr.. Doniver, amid
laughter.
The senate rates r%e-euacting the
Dingley rates were adopted, the
members of the finance committee
having promised further consideration
Of the subject in conference.
Contending that the industry would
suffer if the duties on cotton knit
gloves were not increased, Nh. Lodge
offered an amendment for the nance
committee. making the duty fifty cents
a dozen pairs, aud forty-hve per cent.
ad valorem on knit or woven cotton
gloves valued at more han six dol
lars a dozen. fifty-tive per cent. ad
valorem. Mr.. Bacon demanded a
roll call and the amendment carried
.forty-one to t%wenty-four
The committee amendment to the
naragraph on cotton carriers and fab
rio for suspenders were withdrawn
by Mr.. Aldrich, and cotton tapes,
landings and bindings were included
in the paragraph, which was then ac-
cepted. Mr.. Dolliver and Mr. LaFol-
lette opposed the committee amend
ment taking off the duty Of thirty-iye
per cent. al valorem on cotton duck
and placing duck under the provisions
for rating cotton cloth according to
value and count of threads.
Mr.. Aldrich explained that the duty
originally placed on cotton duck was
intended to cover sail-making, but
that in recent years, especially in
1908, a finer grade Of goods for
dresses were imported un-
der the same duty. The amendment
agreed to and the last paragraph
Of the cotton schedule was adopted.
