RECIPROCITY AND TARIFF.
Pres. Taft Will Confine His Message to
Extra Session of Congress to
These Subjects Only.

President Taft, according to present
plans, will confine his message to the
extra session of congress to the sub
jects Of Canadian reciprocity and the
establishment of a tariff board.
He is convinced the country desires
and ought to desire further revision
Of several schedules of the Payne-Ald-
rich act.
He feels the wooden schedule is in
defensible and is anxious it should be
revised soon.
The president is equally convinced
that the country desires that revisions
Of the tariff be made in the light of
scientific information, which it is the
duty of the tariff board to collect.
If Mr.. Taft's wishes were met the
extra session will devote itself to reci-
procity first, the government tariff
board second, postponing the revision
of the textile schedules until the tariff
board completes its work December 1.
President Taft frankly expects the
democratic house and nearly democratic
senate of the 62nd congress to help
him carry out a program of scientific
revision of the tariff.
President Taft has said he believed
it would be illogical, unwise and injuri
Gus to the business interests if a gen
eral tarff revision should be undertaken

more than an hour having the wound
dressed.
The alleged assailant, who is large

rich. Ulrieh told the police that he
came up from the basement with his
club when his wife complained that
a negro had been hanging around the
hallway acting suspiciously. He walk

the negro, vigorously attacking the edu-
