TARIFF And
COST OF LIVING
Dealers Have Maintained or
Increased Prices Despite
Lower Duties
CONGRESSMAN PAYNE
DEFENDS NEW MEASURE

By United Press Leased Special Wire.
LYONS, n. Y, Sept 23.-That the
Payne-Aldrich tariff bill absolutely
fulfilled the promises of the last Re
publican platform for downward re-
vision, and that it is an excellent law
with the possible exception OF the
wool schedule was the defiant conten-
tion of Serene Y. Payne. one of its
authors. in a speech here today For
the fourteenth time Payne was renom-
mated by the Republicans of the Thlr-
ty-tirst New York district and he took
occasion in accepting to defend the
tariff specially from the contention
that it is responsible for the high
cost of living.
with a different wage scale in
every foreign country" he said, "and
with differences in wages in every
part of this country, honest men
seeking the difference in labor cost
here and abroad, will not agree. TC
reconcile these differences among
twelve men selected tor The task was
part of the work that Congress had
to do in making up the tariff sched.
ules and in the last analysis the dif.
ierences had to be settled by a ma.
jority The result was satisfactory tC
me in general results.
Il was anxious to revise the wOOler
schedule, but the committee could no
agree on the amendment This was
not that the committee was unduly in

il could not agree upon the labor cos

The law as signed by the Presi
dent has resulted in a general re
vision downward and nothing. vii

The Payne law has turned defici

We reduced the tariff on lumbe

INQUIRY COMMITTEE

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2S-"Men run
ming political campaigns do not care
what is the source of the contribu-
tion. There is no such thing as
.tsinted money to them. It's all ac-
ceptable."
In the above statement, made to the
legislative committee. which is in
vestigatlng graft allegations, Con-
eressman George r. Malby to-day
justified his acceptance of a contribu-
tion of a man he knew was the legis-
lative agent of the traction combine.
Malby made 1t very plain by his testl-
mony that any money given him to
spend to advance his interests and
ensure his intention. was in his opin-
ion. legitimate. whether it came from
persons who might be interested in
future legislation or not.
AIalby had explained that an alleg-
ed transfer of $500 from a dummy
account of brokerage firm Of Elling-
wood and Cunningham. and which
was previously testified TO as having
been deposited by G. Tracy Rogers
who collected it from the street rail-
road combine of the State, was not
payment made to him for a purpose
but was a rebate of interest on stocl
transactions. When pressed regard
ing Rogers testimony that h
(Rogers) had contributed $500 to Nal
bys campaign fund, the Congressman
admitted he received the money II
claimed he had nothing 70 concea
about the transaction and justified hi
acceptance of the money by citin

Construction at MeXi-

Plans for the water terminal of the
Arizona, Mexico & Gulf of California
road at Port Lobos, Mexico, have been
completed by the Robbins-R Ripley COM
pany, engineers and contractors of New
York. The terminal viii consist Of q
pier 500 feet long to be partially
shielded and so located that there will
be a sufficient depth of water for the
largest ocean vessel with an approach
$500 feet long leading in to the shore
As the waters of the Gulf of Cali
fornia are infested with teredo, or ship
worms, some provision had to be made
to procure a permanent type of piling.
The piling to be used is that used in the
large dock at Port au Prince. Hayti,
which is said to have successfully re-
sisted the attacks Of the deep sea
borer. 1t is expected that work on the
pier and approach will begin at once.

With the T. & P, however, the super
intendent or his trainmaSters can keep
as many crews as they see fit. The first
crew in al a terminal is the first to
get out and each crew waits until there
is freight enough TO make up train
1t is therefore problematicaI when a
crew will get out again, once it comes

while a T. P man gets but 25 cents.
The the T & P. men havt a kick
some of them-at the fact that the road
uses a negro for rear flagman. Not
another road entering Ell Paso does
this. They all carry negro porters or
head flagmen on their passenger trains
but the rear flagman-sometimes called
the brakeman-is a white man. The 7.

H. refuses even to allow the road to
operate over its lines 10 Sierra Blanca,
however, with a negro flagman on the
rear, and the T. & P. employs a white
man on the job between the points where
it runs over the G. H. track. East of
that, however, the negroes do the work.
Until recently the T. & P men had to
set out water cars for the company
without extra compensation, and this
amounted TO considerable loss Of time

der far less favorable conditions than

FL Paso. they claim, and they are go

The Southwestern is said TO be the

T. P. considerably down the list.
The principal objection of the older
Texas & Pacific men is that they have
no monthly guarantee. The road can
keep as many crews in service as the
officials wish and run them out in their
regular ordeT-first in, first out. This
allows the new men to make as much
as the older ones and guarantees no.
body anything.
ON the other roads every man has z
guarantee. The roads have the privi-
lege Of laying off crews when they
please or in railroad parlance, putting
them on the extra board, but all regular
crews composed of the older men in
the service, have a guarantee and il
they do not make that much, they draw
Il anyhow. In this way the newer crews
are laid off when business gets slack
and the older ones continue at work
This puts a premium on long service
for even in the reduction of crews, the
oldest man in any line Of work, re-
mains on duty. For instance, the young
