Honors For Airship Men.

WASHINGTON, June 10.-The ap.
prectstion, good will and congr atula-
ttons OF the American people were to.
day extended to Wilbur and Orville
Wright, the American aviators, BY
the president of the United States.
The occasion was the presentation
OF the gold medals awarded to the
Wright brothers by the Aero Club Of
America to commemorate the conquest
of the air. In the presence of distin.
guished statesmen, foreign diplom ats,
members of the cabinet, noted scien.
lists and prominent aeron auts and
aviators, the two inventors of the first
successful flying machine heavier than
air received the first public recogni.
tion of their achievements from their
fellow countrymen. President Taft
expressed keen admiration for their
work and ventured the belief that their
machine will be the basis for the fu.
ture aerial craft and prophecied that
that the dawn of the age of flight is
here.

Ryan Heads Amalgamated.

NEW YORK, June 10. - John D.
Ryan was today elected president OF
the Amalgamated Copper company to
succeed the late H. H. Rogers.
B. B. Thayer was elected president
of the Anaconda Copper Mining com.
pany, succeeding John D. Ryan.
To rise by successive steps from the
obscure position of drummer in
kerosene in sparsely settled western
mining state to the presidency of the
Amalgamated Copper Mining CON-
pany, succeeding the late Henry H.
Rogers, is an achievement which few
men could accomplish, and to CON-
pass this in the short space of twenty
years, still fewer men, even though
the opportunity were theirs, could &C.
complish. But this is the career up
to date of John D. Ryan, today
chosen as the successor of Mr.. Rogers
as the head of the Amalg am ated.

Meat Inspection Condemned.

ST. LOUIS, June l0.-After ten years
service as United States meat in.
spector in East St. Louis packing
houses j. F. Harms has resigned and
has written a letter to Secretary of
Agriculture Wilson demanding an
investigation of the meat inspection
system. In this letter Inspector Harms
says:
"The inspection at the national
stock yards is costing the people
about sl00. 900 year and it actu ally
is not worth dollar to them. I have
seen from 1900 to 1,50O pounds of
lard spilled on the floor and which
ran down into an open sewer in the
floor, the sewer outlet being quickly
blocked and said lard taken up from
the floor and out of the sewer, both
OF which were unclesn from walking
over and the filth which natur ally finds

Clancy and Meaders passed the same
to the packers over the protest OF the

TARIFF BILL COMPLETED,
Measure Will Soon Pass Third Read
ing In Senate.

WASHINGTON, June II. Having
completed the consideration of items
OF the tariff bill that had been passed
over under objections by senator's dur.
ing its second reading, the adjourn
ment of the senate today marked an
important period in the progress of
the measure.
When the bill is again taken up it
will be on its third reading for the
final disposition of items upon which
the most pronounced objections have
been made.
The starch industry received protec.
tion by reversal Of the recommends q.
tions made by the committee by which
tapioca and sago would be subject to
9 duty of l cent pound when not i'm.
ported for food. Senator Nelson
opened the fight on the free admission
of these products on the ground that
they were used largely by the cotton
cloth and oilcloth industries, in com.
petition with starch made from pota.
toes and corn.
He was supported by Senator Cum
Minis. Both senators were taken to
task by Senator Aldrich for attempt
ing to revise the tariff upward, the
Rhode leland senator claiming that II
the committee had suggested duty on
products that could not be raised in
this country for the purpose Of pro.
tecting other products when they came
in competition, it would have been
roundly denounced for such action.
he also suggested that there was q
combin alton in the starch industry.
Senator'S Frye and Burrows, both
OF whom have starch factories within
their states, came to the rescue Of the
western senators, and Senator Aid.

opposition, accepted an amendment by

Raised Duty On Wool Substitutes.

WASHINGTON, June 9.-The COM
mittee amendment increasing the
house rate on wool top waste and
other wastes from 20 cents per pound
to 30 cents per pound was adopted by
q vote of 40 to 30 in the senate today.
This was q finance committee change
and the committee presented it's usual
majority on this measure. Senators
Gamble and Crawford deserted the
"progressives," but with these ex.
ceptions the ranks of that contingent
remained unbroken. The committee
amendments increasing the duty on
shoddy from 20 cents per pound to 25
cents and that on tops from 18 to 20
cents also prev allied.
Speeches were made during the day
by Senators Warren and LaFollette,
the former advocating, as on yester.
day, a generally increased duty, while
the latter contended for q general re-
duction. The two senators engaged
in a sharp controversy during which
Mr.. LaFollette said that he expected
further recruits to his belief from the
eastern senator's.
'There never has been a time,' said
Senator Warren, when wooigrowers
have been prosperous unless the wool
en- manufacturers were prosperous.

the woolen manufacturers and the
woolgrowers had some agreement.

they should have each other by the

ers OF the so-called progressive re.

rich forces on the wool schedule of the
tariff bill. Senator Dolliver offered
numerous amendments looking to q
reduction of the finance committee
rates, but in each instance the amend
ment was voted down and the commit.
tee sustained.
The fret of Mr.. Delivers sugges.
tions had for its object the conflning
of the duty on mixed cloths to the
wool in them. which amendment was
defeated by vote of 81 to 43. Mr..
w arren contended that the object OF
this provision was to prevent the i'm.
portation of cheap cloths, but Mr..
Dolliver argued that there might be
some people who would be benefited
by having cheap clothes brought in
from abroad. On this vote Mr.. Dol
liver was supported by Sen ators Bev.
eridge, Bristow, Brown, Clapp, Cum
Minis. La Toilette and Nelson, while
Senator McEnery, of Louisiana, was
the only democratic sen ator who voted
with the republicans against the pro.
vision.
Many OF Mr.. Delivers amendments
were along the same lines as the first,
and on the first series the vote was
practically the same. In no instance
did any Of the republican senators
change. One OF Mr.. Delivers amend
ments was identical in terms with a
provision suggested by Mr.. Aldrich
as part of the Mckinley tariff bill of
1888, but the Rhode Island senator re.
fused to accept it, saying the condi-
tions were entirely different now from
what they were in those days. In the
course of discussion between Sena-
tors Aldrich and Owen on the duty on
blankets the fact was brought out tn at
blankets paid at the rate of $50 per
cent. ad valorem.

CARTER SHOWED THEM.
Montana Senator Gives Lecture On
Wool Industry.

WASHINGTON, June 8.-Much good
humor and many pleas antries were in.
jected into the debate on the woolen
schedule in the senate today. Mr..
Dolliver, the central figure, offered
several amendments and announced
his intention Of presenting others, ap-
pealing to the republican members to
vote with him because he said these
amendments would justify the attitude
OF the republican party in advocating
q protective tariff.
One of the interesting features was
lecture on the woolen industry from
beginning to end by Mr.. Carter, who
brought forth large box filed with
samples of various grades of wool.
To the senators who gathered about
him he explained each step In the
manufacture of wooden goods from the
raising of the sheep to the making of
the garment. He familiarized members
of the senate with the uses of shoddy,
waste, noils, tops and various grades
of wool.
Mr.. Carter's lecture proved to be q
popular one. Many of the senators
gathered about his samples, which
they handled, some even taking them
by the sense of smell to distinguish
their several qualities. Explaining
the various processes of manufacture,
Senator Carter carried the senate
through all the phases OF the subject
so far as necessary to illustrate the
propriety of the duties carried by the
recommend alton OF the finance COM
mittee.
Much amusement was offered when
Mr.. Dolliver and Mr.. Warren became
involved in a colloquy in which they
stood within. a few feet of each other
and each endeavored to convince the
other of the soundness of his opinion
regarding the advisability of assess
ing the woolen duty on the value of
the wool in the cloth. Mr.. Dolliver
said he would propose amendments
that would carry out his proposition,
but Mr.. Warren, to illustrate the
small proportion of the entire cost of
a wooden garment which is durable,
asked Mr.. Dolliver to examine the suit
which he was wearing.
Mr.. Dolliver said it appeared to
him to be good suit, whereupon Mr..
Warren explained that the cloth in
the suit cost only 81 while the making
and the trimmings cost S42, showing
that the duty on the 81 worth of cloth
was tritling compared with the entire
cost of the suit.
