LODGE ON TARIFF REVISION
Bay State Senator Supports Amend
ments by Sections.
HEPBURN AGAINST MEASURE
IdnhO Men Says He Does Not want
Any Expert Pencil Men TO
Tell Him what
20 DO.

WAsHING GTON, Dec H. -- Asserting
wholesale revisons of the tariff to be an
unmitigated injury to the business inter-
ests OF the country and ruinous to the
party that undertakes them" Senator
Lodge in a speech today in the senate sup
ported amendment by sections.
He spoke on a motion TO refer the Cum
minis Joint resolution to the committee on
rules The house, he said. now had power
to bring in special rules to cut out amend
ments. He believed the senate could adopt
a similar plan. Therefore, he did not be-
Iieve necessary a general law such as is
contemplated by the resolution Senator
Lodge announced himself in accord with
the presidents tariff commission plan.
Speaking of the desirabillty of the amend
ment of the tariff in separate parts, rather
than as a whole, Mr.. Lodge said such
changes could not be undertaken without
entering on a complete revision Of all the
schedules.
1T may be said" Mr.. Lodge argued
that II Is easy for the majority to vote
down Objectionable amendments but the
range is so great as to render it lmpracti-
cable to offer any amendment that does
not open up the whole subject"
Mr.. Hepburn announced direct and un-
yielding opposition to the Cummins resolu-
ton and TO all efforts at plecemeal revi-
sion.
I'VE want no expert body of pencil men
TO tell US what to do he said, adding that
there was no telling where such a system
would lead. He then expressed apprehen-
sion that the "finespun scheme" might
bring about a revision OF the wool schedule
because the manufacturing states want
wool treated as a raw material. Then,
referring to the talk of foreign competition.
Mr.. Hepburn declared that such talk was
resorted to for purposes of coercion,
The resolution was left On the table
for further discussion.

Bond Endorsement
By Trust Company
Causes Liability
Decision by Ohio Circuit Court Estab-
fishes Precedent Which May Cause
Total Changes in Methods.

CINCINNATI. o.. Dec 17.-The circuit
court OF the First Ohio district, by re-
versing the case Of Charles I. Dreifus
against the Union Savings Bang and Trust
company. today established a precedent
which may cause every trust company In
the United States 10 change the indorse-
ment which It is customary to place on
bonds.
Droifus received from Holman & Co..
who ,afterward failed. six bonds indorsed
by the Union Savings and Trust company
as follows:
1T is hereby certified that this bond is
one OF the series Of bonds described in
the mortgage or deed OF trust within mem
toned"
The Endorsement that was used was au-
thorized BY lawyers at the instance Of
the American Bankers association TO avoid
the liability. which in the case the court
has decided to the trust company. The
service which trust company performs
as an increase is merely that OF certifying
that the bond is one OF series and only
a nominal fee is charged.
II the decision stands and the trust COM
pany becomes liable for the security men
toned in the deed Of trust. 1t will mean
that instead Of a nominal fee being
charged. every bond Issue viii entail a
large sum being paid to the trust company
to prevent over-issue.
The mater has been under discussion at
every meeting OF the American Bankers
association and It thought that there would
be no possibility of decision like that Of
today. The Union Savings Bank and Trust
company, realizing that this Is test case
which trust companies throughout the
country are interested Will carry the mat
ter to the highest courts.

BEFORE GRAND JURY MONDAY
Government Expects Return of In
dictments In Very Few Days-CRse
Ready for Presentation in
Detail.

CHICAGO, Dec. 17-(Special Teiegram.)-
Government searchlights may be turned
upon members of the Chicago Board of
Trade on Monday, when the new federal
grand jury begins an investigation OF con-
ditions among brokerage concerns here as
a result of the raid on the offices Of the
Capital Investment company and the ar
rest Of thirty men, Charges that the raided
concern used a special fast wire to bring
stock quotations here ahead of the regular
reports led to rumors that other brokers
had resorted to the same methods. Plans
were laid for a sweeping investigation as
a result.
An announcement that the bucket shop
combination would be the first matter
taken up by the new grand jury led to the
circulation of more reports that high Off
GERS of the Western Union Telegraph com
pany might be involved. No attempt was
made though to arrest w ]. Lloyd traffic
manager Of the Western Union.
VIII Hold Books.
Meanwhile George Scarborough, counsel
for the Department OF Justice, and Special
Agent Dewoody conferred with Attorney
Sims. These officials decided to resist any
attempt which might be made by Sid Nc
HE to obtain possession of the conflscated
DCtkS OF Ine ChplIAl investment company.
They said they feared he would attempt
to secure the books through a court order
based on his wish to reimburse clients of
the concern.
Government officials interested in the
case declared that It would be so carefully
prepared when II is presented to the grand
jury Monday that very little time will be
needed for its consideration. Indictments,
they said, might be expected Monday or
early Tuesday.
Only nine of the men for whom warrants
were issued when the Capital Investment
company was raided remain to be arrested.
Five Of these were expected to give them
selves up today. The most important man
who has not yet given bond is William X.
Holligan, McHie's chief lieutenant, who is
In New York. Holligan is the brother-in-
law Of Traffic Manager Lloyd of the Vest
ern Union. Reports that many indictments
would be returned by the grand jury In
connection with the bucket shop case were
circulated and It was said prominent men
not yet mentioned would be involved.
