HEARD FROM
CAPTAIN SANDERS YESTERDAY
READ PRESSING COMMUNIcA.
TIoNs FROM PENSACOLA TO
ASSEMBLED CHIEFS.

Capt. F. d. Sanders yesterday pre-
scented several invitations to the as
sembled chiefs Of police at Birming-
ham to visit this place at the conclu-
sion Of the convention, now in ses-
sion at the Magic City. One of the
invitations presented was from the
San Carlos hotel management, while
the other was from the Veteran Fire
men, both of them pressing in nature.
1t Is believed quite a bunch of them
will come down Sunday or Monday,
the low rate having been made known
to the convention. Should they agree
TO accept the invitation it will be
made known today.
From Manager Hervey, of the San
Carlos, the invitation was as follows:
San Carlos Message.
I'VE wish to extend a most <e6rdial
invitation to all those intending to
visit the annual convention of the
chiefs of police at Birmingham, Ala,
TO also visit Pensacola, Fla, before
returning home, where entertainment
will be planned for them, and where
the various attractions of the city,
bay and gulf will be pointed out to
them with a view to bringing the con.
vention to this city next year.
Pensacola, we feel, will be a. most
ideal place for the convention of nine.
teen hundred and eleven, and we as.
sure you that nothing will be left un'
done with regard to the best of enter
tainment for the visitors.
This invitation, gentlemen, is being
extended also on behalf of the citi

PILOTS LIBEL
THE STEAMER
CLARA CAMUS

The Austrian steamer Clara Camus,
which came here recently from New
Orleans to take part cargo, was
libeled late Wednesday afternoon by
the Pensacola Pilots Association in
the sum of $500, this amount being
the pilotage alleged to be due the as
sociation under the compulsory pilot
age act.
The suit is the result of the steam
er being piloted into port by Capt.
Jas. Stearns, who has been off on
leave for some months and not en-
gagged in service. When the steamer
was libeled he stood surety, pending a
hearing in the United States S~court
and then piloted the vessel to sea
being paid for the service.
The Board of Pilot Commissioners
has ordered Pilot Stearns to report on
the bar for duty every seventy-two
hours, but it is understood that he
will fail to report as ordered.

ment through acts of leniency, such
as taking intoxicated men to the po-
lice sta ton where they are permit
ted to sleep off their stupor without
being charged as "drunks,'' etc, and
also made to understand that he is

other classes less accustomed to dis.

Did the scope of this paper permit
I could cite numerous instances OF
what might have proved serious
clashes between soldiers from the
several army posts located near
Pensacola and blueiackets and ma
rines from the Pensacola navy yard
and men-of-War rendeZvousing in our
harbor, and the police, had cool judg-
ment not been exercised in handlinl
the situation. We have frequently
handled as many as 1000 or more OF
these men on our streets at one time
but only upon one occasion, and that
at time that I was in no way con-
nected with the police department,
has it ever become necessary to call
upon the military authorities for as
sistance. Instigated by an injudici
Gus civilian and aggravated by a po
lice officer of excitable temperament
riot was precipitated which result
ed in the death of one man.
With fair play, and frmness eXer
cised at all times. the policing OF
the enlisted men of the army and
navy ceases to be problem; with
out both, it is a problem of very large
proportions.

B0UTELL ON THE TARIFF
Present Law the Best Yet He
Tells Detroit Bankers.

Detroit, May e3-Renoval Of tha tariff
from the domain Of partisan politics was
urged by Representative Henry s. Boutell
at luncheon AZ the Bankers Club here
to-day.
Every one must concede," said Mr..
Bcuten, that. judged solely ss a revenue
increase. the Payne tariff act has justified
the opinion ef President Taft that it is the
best tariff law that has ever been passed
'-The charge that the Payne tariff has
been the cause of the increased cost of
living is found on investigation to be with
out the slightest foundation There is not
in the Payne tariff any advance in rates
above the rates in the Dingley tariff that
5Gsrtles the increase in final retail price
tP the ultimate consumption of A single
necessary article of food, clothing or
household use. Notwithstanding this. some
unscrupuious dealers have put ,,n the
prices Of their goods, giving the PAYNE
tariff as the necessity for the advance.
The Payne law is the most logically
constructed and scientific tariff that we
have had It is we'll adapted to serve as
a permanent, general revenue statute that
shall be amended from time to time TO
meet the exigeneies of the Treasury aud
conform TO industrial changes.
IN order TO replace the present unsatis-
factory method, two Things are necessary.
The rrst requisite is up-to-date inforr,a-
ton, the fullest and most searsl1ing. on
every subject related TO the tariff. This
information should be gathered through tl,e
various departments and by specially
trained experts under the direction of the
President. and should be transmitted as
rapidly as secured 10 the House of Repre-
sentatives.
