WASHINGTON, D. C. April l.
The general debate on the tariff was
continued in the House OF Represen-
tatives today and tonight. The Payne
bill came in for It's usual condemna-
ton as to pretexts and shams.
Messrs Gains and Mccall, both
members Of the ways and means
committee, defended the measure, al.
though the Massachusetts, member
wanted something specific in il re-
garding the course 10 be pursued to-
ward the Philippines. The anticipated
action regarding the fixing Of the
time for closing OF the debate was not
taken in view OF the complex situa-
ton in which the Republican leaders
found themselves.
That the rule permitting amend.

main about which there is contention.
The reciprocity provision for bitumi-
nous coal and placing iron ore on the
free list are understood to have been
conceded by the house leaders as two
propositions under the rule TO permit

minority members who voted for the
Fitzgerald amendment to the rules
may vote with the Republicans on the
tariff bill rule.
AT the night session Of the house
Thomas OF Kentucky, the new Demo.
cratic member, made his maiden
speech, by quoting figures from Dun's
Review, Thomas endeavored to show
that the price Of labor had decreased
80 per cent instead Of increased 10
per cent as claimed by the Bureau Of
Labor, He based his contention on
the claim that the cost of living had
increased 4o per cent. Burnett Of
Alabama declared that the Payne bill
was aimed directly at American wom-

Count Zeppelin 'sIShip Has Thrill
ling Battle in the Clouds
With Winds
TROOPS RUSH TO ASSISTANCE
Will Make Another Attempt at Once
to Return to Munich and Land His
Airship in the Presence Of the
Prince Regent.

MUNICH, April Count Zeppelin
who landed his airship safely today
after thrilling battle in the clouds
with contrary winds passed the night
close to where his craft landed on
marshy tract, 48 miles northeast OF
Munich. AS soon as it was known
that Zeppelin had landed troops hur-
ried up from various sections to rem
der assistance. A battalion Of infan-
try and three squadrons of heavy
cavalry were first to arrive on the
scene Later came the balloon corps
from Munich. having with them gas
apparatus for reflling the balloon if it
is necessary. Zeppelin's feat in safely
landing in a gale blowing nearly IS
miles an hour is highly praised by
aeronauts who have tried the expert
ment. Zeppelin wanted to return to
Munich tonight but the wind prevent
ed him. He will, however. resume the
journey early tomorrow morning and
make another attempt to land in
Munich.
The balloon left Friederichshafen at
five minutes past 4. The ship passed
over Friederichshafen at an altitude
of 1000 feet at moderate speed. and
turned in the direction of Munich.
When the airship was sighted shortly
before 9 o'clock approaching Munich
the church bells Of the city rang out
in peals of welcome and cannons fired
a salute. As the ship drew nearer the
whirr of the motor could be heard on
the streets. The vessel made its way
to point over the exposition grounds
and descended to within 800 feet.
Thousands of people had gathered on
the grounds, and the s::aneuver was
greeted with an outburst of cheering,
1t was his intention to land here in
the presence Of the Prince Regent and
the entire garrison of Munich, but in
consequence Of the squally and in
creasing wind the maneuvers were
impossible. An attempt to land was
made over the parade grounds outside
the city. but as soon as it was seen
to be impossible the ships was lifted
again. The Count then tried to re-
turn to Munich, but by this time tha
wind was so strong he could make
no headway, and it was noticed that
the airship was being driven sideways
down the wind
