A TARIFF BOARD.
(American News Service)


Washington, June Ex-senator Bev-
eridge made a notable speech in the
Senate today in support of the perma-
nent tariff commission. Admitting
that no immediate legislative result
would follow and that the insurgents
are willing for the present to accept
the presidents recommendation incor-
pOrated in the sundry civil bill au-
thorizing s25O,OOO to extend the work
of the tariff board, the Senator from
Indiana predicted that this was but
another step to full achievement of
the permanent commission plan.
Senators Dolliver and Clapp also
talked in favor of the commission with
broad powers.
A note of discord was sounded by
the committee of one hundred of the
Indianapolis convention, of which D.
NJ. Parry is a member and John c.
Cobb of Boston the moving spirit, Sen
ators and Representatives were circu-
lated this morning and urged to vote
for the permanent tariff commission
and insist on it now. Mr.. Cobb's COM
mittee declared that it had made a poll
and found the majority of both houses
favorable to the commission. This
propaganda was unauthorized.

One of the Best Known Busi-
ness Men in Eastern Indi-
ana Dies From Heart
Trouble at II O'clock.
DECEASED WAS HEAD
OF THE WAYNE WORKS..
He Was Known as One of the
most Able Business Men of
the City-AIso Interested in
Real Estate.

Walter William Schultz. president of
The Wayne Works Company, and one
of the best known business men of
the city, died this morning about II
o'clock at his home, 80 South Eleventh
street. from heart trouble after three
weeks illness. He was in his fifty-sixth
year. He is survived by his wife. Mrs.
Varoine d. Schultz, one son. George
L., and his mother. Mrs. Nancy
Schultz. The funeral arrangements
will be given later.
Mr. Schultz had been resident OF
the city since 1887, when he came here
from Camden, o., and assumed the
general managership Of the Wayne
Works. From this position he gradu-
ally arose until he became president,
which position he held for several
years. He devoted his energies to the
development of the plant and largely
through his efforts it became one OF
the largest and most productive con-
Germs in the city, furnishing employ
ment to about $50. 1t has been greatly
enlarged under his management.
When he became general manager the
concern was employing about Is men.
His chief business asset was his
foresight in trade conditions. AS a
result of his business sagacity the
concern is now manufacturing large
quantities of agricultural implements,
which find a sale all over the world.
Mr.. Schultz also added vehicle and
automobile departments to the BUSH
ness, both Of which have large mar
ket His business associates say that
he w~s an excellent manager and bust
mes or~anizer.
Owned Much Real Estate.
Very little of his attention was de-
voted to other enterprises than that
of The Wayne Works Company. He
was not interested in any other local
factories, but had large holdings in
Richmond real estate.
He first engaged in business in Cam
den, o., where he ran an implement
store. He also travelled for the Wayne
Agricultural Company which latter be-
came The Wayne Works. He also
taught school near Camden. Rising
Sun and Seven Mile. Ohio.
He was born at Seven Mile, Decem-
Der 5, 1854 and was the son of George
w. and Nancy Schultz. There, he was
educated in the common schools and
after completing the course of instruc-
ton, he became a teacher. He always
was a tireless worker and many illus
trations of his devotion to duty are
given.
He was married to Caroline d. Dan
ser of Camden and to them was born
one son, George. Mrs. Schultz was
very much affected by the death of her
husband, although she is bearing up as
well as could be expected.
Mr.. Schultz had been troubled with
heart complications for several years.
but not until the last two years has
his trouble been considered in any
wise serious. Until within the last
two years he devoted his entire time
to his work, but during the latter pc.
Rod had to make several visits
to health resorts. He also suffered
from Bright's disease.

ASSESSMENTS ARE
BEING MADE FAST
Nearly all the Corporations in
the County Have Now
Been Assessed.
SOME TROUBLE EXPECTED.
CORPORATIONS MAKING p. r,
DOUBLE TRACK THROUGH THE
COUNTY MAY MAKE FIGHT
AGAINST PAYING ANY TAX.

The Wayne county board of review
has completed the 1910 assessment of
more than half the corporations. but
it still has before it the matter of as
sessment of railroad properties and
other matters which will require seye-
raj days work. One of the most trou-
blesome features Of the work this year
no doubt will be the assessment of the
construction work on the Pennsylvania
lines in this county.
These corporations have large
amount Of property which the Wayne
county tax officials have been instruct
ed to list by the state board of tax ex-
aminers. The board of review will
go ahead and assess these properties
although a fight will probably be made
by the corporations on the payment of
the taxes. The representatives of
these construction companies claim
that they are incorporated under the
laws of Pennsylvania and that as they
pay tax on their property in that state
they should not have to pay tax here
on the same property.
County Treasurer Albertson will not
be allowed to make any demand for
the tax until January l. and unless the
companies are still engaged in the
work at that time, they no doubt will
see that all their property is removed
from the county and thus avoid at
tachment proceedings.
According to a review of the assess
ment sheet of last year there are nine
corporations of the county which went
out of business during the year There
are a very few corporations which do
not have any property here However,
it is thought that the losses from these
causes will not equal the gains made
during the year. The board of review
this morning made the following as

railroad was under duty to perform
such services as long as 1t retained
its charter.
The state Of Alabama had its statute

the supreme court. The state Of Geor-
gia lost in most Of its contentious ~

laws decided exceeded any other line
Of cases. The state Of Minnesota won
complete victory over the Great
Northern Railway company and the
Chicaeo Great Western Railway com
pany, which had resisted the states
