Iron ore, free (present rate 40 cents
a tony.
Oil, free (now protected by counter
vailing dnty).
Hides, 1-2 per cent ad valorem
(present rate IS per cent?.
Coal, As cents a ton (present rate CT
cents a TOM.
Lumber, probably $1.25 on rough,
with senate rates on finished. This
would be a material reduction through
out the lumber schedule.
When The conferees transferred to
the president IS shoulders the RESPONSE
bility of putting the foregoing raw
materials CT the free list it was not
believed he would meet with success
in swinging congressman and senators
into line.
For several days, however, members
of congress have been going to the
White Horae and not a few of then
came away convinced that the presi
dent was right in insisting on lowe

New York, July 19.-Sixteen persons,

of New York. Ten persons persisted
after the capsizing of the excursion
sloop Roxana, carrying % passengers.
Six were victims of swimming acct

Captain Samuelson of the Roxana
and the 10 survivors were picked up
under great difficulties in a rough
and choppy sea, by the tug Lamont.
The Roxana was chartered at Ulmer
beach, Brooklyn, by party of Swedes
from Brooklyn, for a sail across the
bav to Midland beach, Staten island,
and back. The trip over was made
without mishap and all hands went
ashore to make merry. Beer was
served and some survivors could give
but a hazy account of the accident.
All afternoon there was stiff
breeze from the southwest, which left
a heavy cross-sea. Toward 4 O'Clock
the Roxana slipped into squall and
before the captain could slack away
his sheet the boat was bottom up an'
the water was black with bobbins
heads. Soon the Roxana vanished an'
the struggling passengers began t.
follow her Fortunately, the tug La
mont kept a sharp lookout. Captain
Keyster saw the sloop turn over. IN
stantlv he headed for the spot, but be
fore he could reach the ROxana thre
more passengers had gone down. Lif
lines and buoys were thrown to thos

brisk work all in sight were rescued.

Senator Rayner's
denomination Will
Cost Him $4,000

Baltimore, Md, May 3.-While it now
looks as though United States Senator
Isidor Rayner will have no COMPETE
ton in the Democratic primaries for
denomination the honor will be very
costly. To comply with the new pri-
mary Senatorial election law he must
bear the entire expense of holding the
primaries, about $4,000. Republican
candidates for Senator must bear the
same burden. The greater the num-
Der of candidates the lighter the eX-
pense to each. The Republicans have
not yet decided upon their line of &C
ton. 1t will be difficult to find one
candidate to pay the whole bill.
