TARIFF DEBATE IS
COLORED BY TILTS
Sen. Hepburn Offers to Resent a
Criticism I'm Any Way
on Earth
THE DISCUSSION IS GENERAL
Beyeridge and AIdriCh Revert to
Old Argument Regarding
Authorship of Bill
THE DISCUSSION is GENERAL
tAssboiated Pressl

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE tarlu
question again occupied the attention
of the senate throughout the day and
the discussion was not concluded.
The subject came up in connection
with the provision in the sundry civil
appropriation bill, providing a fund OF
$3.50 600 with which to enable the presl-
dent to investigate the operation of the
present tariff law.
The discussion was participated IN by
a large number of senators and TOOK
:, ,,ide rance which everybody under
stood to be largely colored by political
conditions.
Senator Clay opened the debate with
a sharp Democratic speech, charging
that the measure was intended to de
lude the insurgent Republicans into the
belief that there was to be another
revision of the tariff, which he tried TO
prove by several Republican senators
with some measure of success.
He was supported by Senator Bailey
on the Democratic side of the chamber.
They succeeded in bringing Senator
Adrich into the controversy with the
result that he made defense of the
present law and succeeded in again
bringing Senator Beveridge TO his feet.
The Indiana senator and the Rhode
Island senator found opportunity to
thresh out their old controversy over
the authorship of the investigation
provision Of the Payne-Aldrich tariff
bill, but with the result that each held
to his original contention.
Mr.. Aldrich declared that he and he
alone had been responsible for the pro
vision While claiming credit for the
tariff commission bill of last session,
the Indiana senator asserted that but
for the general agitation resulting from
that bill there never would have been
an investigation clause in the bill.
Incidental to the debate there were
some amusing incidents. Senators Bal
lev and Johnston made reference to the
telegram sent by Senator Beveridge to
Senator Clapp after the close of the
indianapolis convention. in which Mr..
Beveridge was quoted as saying he
had kicked the stomach off the tariff
bill"
Mr. Johnston construed this language
to mean that Mr. BeVeridge had dis
turbed the "epidermis in the abdominal
region of the tariff. "
Mr.. Hepburn made a spirited appeal
to all Republicans to get together,
stand Loyalty by the party and stop
the agitation of the tariff, and when
Mr.. Cummins sought to interrupt him
Mr. Hale. who sat directly behind the
Idaho senator said loud enough to be
heard all over the chamber:
Don't wind him up again"
Mr. Hepburn overheard the remark
and denouncing it as "insOlent,' said
he did not intend to "alow it." and
added:
Il am quite capable of resenting it
in any way on earth
Mr.. Hale made no reply except to
Join in the general laughter.

COMO. Italy, June 1.-THE police
have made but little progress in the di.-
rection of solving the mystery of the
murder of Mrs Porter Charlton OF
New York, whose dead body was found
in a trunk at the bottom of Lake Como.
1t has been established that the wom-
an was placed in the trunk while alive.
The police at first thought that she
had been murdered while asleep, as the
mattress and sheets in the bed at the
house which she occupied were found
covered with blood, but this theory was
contradicted by the tact tnaU the pody
was entirely clothed when found.
Among the documents in the trunk
were her certificate of marriage to Ne
VILE Castle, dated November 10, 1905,
and a letter from a San Francisco at
tornev addressed to Castle, in which
the lawyer refers to sum of money to
he Maid the woman in case of divorce,
hut advising Castle against divorce.
Nothing has been learned as to the
whereabout of Charlton. 1t is said by
the nolice that on the evening before
the crime is supposed to have been ac-
complished Charlton went to hotel
to make a purchase. and being asked
about his wife, answered that she was
not well.
Tsnolatoff. the Russian who is now In
custody. still strongly denies any com
plicity in the crime.
The most mortem examination of the
body was made today. This revealed
that the woman died from suffocation.
IT was found there were wounds on
the head sufficient to render her un--
conscious, but they were not regarded
as of a nature to cause death. The
victim apparentlv expired some time
after she had been placed In the trunk.
