AS soon as Congress convenes after
the New Year, a series OF conferences
will be held between the president and
leaders in the House and Senate to ex-
pedite action upon the legislative
measures which the president is anxious
to have passed at the short session. The
most important OF these is the tariff
commission, which the president is
fighting to have made permanent. At
present he is optimistic. as it became
known today that he conferred with a
number OF the Senate and House
leaders last night and was much en-
couraged. The names Of the congress
men present we're not made public.
Speaker Cannon called at the White
House yesterday but did not see the
president. He discussed the legislative
situation with secretary Norton and it
was Immediately after this that Secre-
tary Norton spoke OF the favorable out
look. The president hopes to succeed
in securing legislation also on the ship
subsidy question.

UNKNOWN SUICIDE.

A pool OF blood, a revolver with al
empty chamber, and derby hat with
"A. P. p" perforated in the band
discovered on the deck of the Old
Dominion liner Hamilton as the ship
was approaching Cape Henry at dawn
Wednesday morning are the only trace:
OF an unknown passenger who boarded
the vessel before she sailed from
New York for Norfolk Tuesday after
noon.
The officers OF the ship believe that
the man shot himself and, after stand
ing against the deck rail some min
utes, either fell or jumped over into
the sea.
An investigation revealed the fact that
all the registered passengers we're
safe in their staterooms, and that every
member OF the crew was accounted
for.
The steward and others, however,
remembered seeing in the dining saloon
a man who was not registered pas
senger, and who had not been assigned
to a stateroom. This man was tall
and slender, apparently about 9S years
old, had iron-gray hair, wore a fashion
ably cut blue suit, and had the appear

GERMAN TAX ON POTASH.

Several southern senators called
upon President Taft Wednesday to i'm
press upon him the disastrous results
which would ensue from an enforce
ment OF the German export tax upon
potash. They told him that it would
raise the prices OF cotton, tobacco and
the southern farm products generally
as southern agriculturists would be
compelled to pay a much larger price
fortheir fertilizers
They term the action Of Germany in
imposing this tax, a discrimination
against this country and assert that the
United States would be justified in do
claring tariff war in retaliation. Sen
ator Fletcher, OF Florida, and Overman
OF North Carolina, were the principal
Spokesman. They declined however, to
give any intimation OF the view which
the president takes upon this question
though generally they did not appear
optimistic as to an amicable settlement.
