WOULD PREVENT
TARIFF SQUABBLE
Board of Commerce Urges President
Not to Apply Maximum Schedules
to Canada.

Every effort Is being made by the
business men OF Detroit to avert what
they believe would be most deplor-
able mistake on the part Of the admin
istration--the application of the max
lmum tariff schedules TO Canada on
March 81. That the business interests
of the city are thoroughly aroused on
the proposition is evident from the
persistent efforts being made by the
Board Of Commerce to convince Presi-
dent Taft and Michigan's representa-
lives IN congress than such a procla-
nation would be inimical to the bust
ness interests Of this country In that
IL would tend TO seriously disrupt the
friendly trade relations now existing.
In addition to the protest to Pres.-
dent Taft. submitted through Con-
gresham DENLY, the board has sent
a communication to all the Michigan
representatives In the senate and
house OF representatives. urging them
To personally visit Secretary Knox
"and endeavor to impress upon him
the justice and economic Importance OF
a liberal Interpretation OF the tariff
act in this respect"
The communication reads. In part
1T Is hardly necessary to call your
attention TO the fact that our export
and import trade with Canada Is larg-
or than that with any other country In
the world except Great Britain and
GermaDy-larger than that with all the
South American countries put togeth-
er, and but little less than that with
Japan, China and the East Indies COM
bined.
THE exports from this customs dis
trict alone to the dominion are two
and one-half times. and those from the
Huron district one and one-half times
as large as from the whole OF France.
and this Is almost entirely In articles
which French competition does not
touch. Any small tariff concessions
which Canada may make to France
would not affect our trade as much In
a year as the sundering Of friendly
relations with Canada would In a
week"
In It's protest to the president the
board says with reference to the con
ten.ion that Canada discriminates ~
favor OF France:
For us to break friendly relations
aud imperil any large portion Of our
immense trade with Canada by reason
OF some small reciprocal favors grant.
ed country whose competition Is so
infiinitesimal would be an act of SUI
preme national folly"

POLICEMAN THINKS DEATH

Motorcycle Officer Frank Schnell
who was called to Mrs William Ham
mers' rooming house, No. 1O7 Adams
ave. east, Immediately after the
bodies OF Jennie Gerow and Charles
Engel were found. Friday afternoon
scouts the theory that the asphyxia
ton of the couple was accidental
Schnell experimental with the gas
jet. and does not believe that 1t could
have been turned on by mistake.
The gas which filed the room was
pouring from a gas-heater attachment
Just below the jet, and the key turned
in the opposite direction to the gas
key, and turned hard. Schnell says
that the key to the heater Jet could
not have been turned accidentally
when the light was turned outs
Coroner Bennett still inclines to
ward the accident theory. but the
secret of the case will probably never
be known.
The police of Saginaw, where the
Gerow girl was well-known, say that
she had made several attempts on
her life, once by taking poison. She
was the daughter of Peter Gerow. OF
South Saginaw. and was married
when only Is years old. to Steve Ma
