Attorneys Will Confer With
Attorney General Wicker
sham on Pending Cases
THREE DOUBLE CASES YET
PENDING IN THE COURTS
All Are Similar to the One Decided
Yesterday by Judge Anderson In
Favor of the Standard on COMPANY
All May Go.

Washington, March 1.-THE ON
cials Of the department Of Justice to-
day again declined to discuss what
further action will be taken by the
government with respect to the several
other criminal cases against the
Standard Oil company for accept re-
bates now pending in the courts for
the northern district of Illinois. It
is understood, however, that Messrs.
Wilkerson and Sims, the government
attorneys in these cases, will come
to Washington within the next few
days for a conference with Attorney
General Wickersham when it is pre-
sumed course of action will be de.
cided on.
The decision of the court yesterday
in the $29,24O,O0O fine case leaves still
pending in the Chicago district court
three double cases, in which two
separate grand juries have found in
dictments. These three double cases
are understood to be similar, If not
identical. with the decided case of
yesterday.
Consideration already has been CIV
en- by the government counsel to the
case of the United States against the
Standard Oil company which shortly
is to come to trial at Jackson. Tenn.
The indictment in that case contains
1,500 counts. the specific charges be-
ing that the Standard shipped from
Whiting. Ind. to various points in the
south, 1900 or more carloads of oil on
which concessions in rates were made
by the railroads. The decision of the
circuit court at Chicago is not bind
ing as a matter of law on the Ten
nessee Judge who may try the case, as
he is not in the same circuit, but it is
considered likely that he may follow
the Chicago court so far as the two
cases have a similarity.

vorcel wife OF Mann. and whom it was
alleged had been spirited away to
New York by agents OF the defense

The Proposed Tariff on Coffee
Has Given the Committee
Much Trouble
BILL READY FOR INTRODUCTION
SOON As CONGRESS C0NvEMEs
Impossible to Learn Anything About
What It COntains-Is As Sacredly
Guarded as Book Of the Covenant in
Olden Times.

Washington, March 11-With the
Payne tariff bill practically in readi-
ness to be introduced on the first day
Of the special session. newspaper cor
respondents anxious to learn what has
been done with the schedules affect
ing the sections in which their papers
circulate, and manufacturers and 9TH
ers who have interests that will be af-
fected by the new measure gather
daily at the ways and means commit
tee room in an effort to learn some
thing regarding the new bill. No legis-
lative measure has been 90 carefully
guarded as the document now being
framed.
The proposition that has given the
committee the most concern and which
las been the most difficult to deter
mine, is the plan to tax coffee. Some
Republican members declare that the
taxing of the breakfast table would
make 1t impossible for the Republic
next election. The National Coffee
and Tea association wrote to the COM
mittee that tax ON coffee and tea
would be unjust to the consumer, det-
rimental to the trade, irritating to the
masses and finally. will fail to pro-
duce any material revenue r. 20 gov
ernment for nearly two year c come.
The proposition to place Il duty on
coffee is understood to be a. latter
concerning which there is mu..l diff
ference Of opinion among the members
Of the committee. During its deliber-
ations the committee placed duty
on coffee. took it of again. and as the
bill stands now. tax of four cents
per pound is provided for. It Is un-
derstood that the duty on lumber,
while at present fixed at one dollar,
Is likely to be increased. This Is due
to the active campaign which the lun-
bermen have been making. the result
Of which has been to give the commit
tee a vast fund of information from
which to determine fair and equi-
table tax.
1t is claimed for the Payne tariff
bill that it will correct theoretically
and while 1t will afford the best ba-
Sis from which to evolve the new tar
i'll law, 1T is expected that many
changes will be made before 1t is final
] enacted. The revision throughout
the bill is downward, the revenue and
protection features governing the fix
ing Of all the schedules. Representa-
tive Fordne of Michigan has stood out
for the highest protection while Rep
resentative Crunpacker Of Indiana
has favored the lowest duties. Repre-
sentative Gaines of West Virginia and
Bonyage of Colorado have advocated
high protection while the chairman,
Mr.. Payne and Messrs. Boutell of H.
linois, Mccall of Massachusetts, and
Longworth of Ohio have urged lower
duties. Tho other members, Repre-
sentatfves Hill of Connecticut, Needham
Of California. Dalzell of Pennsylvan-
la and Calderhead of Kansas, have IA
vcred protection for the interests of
their constituents. but have generally
been open to compromise.

During the present week the sher-
