SENATOR'S NOW ACCEPT
PRES. TAFT'S CHALLENGE.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-Members
of the Senate committee on foreign
relations have accepted President
Taft's challenge and fired the opening
gun in their fight against the admins
tration's general arbitration treaties in
their present form.
When the Senate committee amended
the treaties the other day President
Taft served notice on them that he
would not accept the amendment and
that he would carry the fight to the
voters of the country. The President
asked the committee to withhold its
amendment until the next session of
Congress, but it disregarded Mr.. Taft's
wishes and reported the proposed
change.
On top of this the committee has
further. ignored the wishes Of the Exec
utive by making public its report in
favor of the amendment.
The Senate report. which is signed
by all except three members of the
foreign relations committee, is unspar-
ing in it's condemnation of the feature
of the treaties which proposes to lodge
with a commission of inquiry the pow
err of determining whether or not a
dispute is arbitrable.

Reused Household Gladly
Feed and Coddle Burglars

According to the story, the DAILY boy,
who wants to be a globe-trotter. told
the Simpson shaver that there was
more fun thar a barrel of monkeys in
running away and coming home and
finding mother with a meal that would
make the prodigal son look like a cir
cumstance.
Something went wrong with their
plans, however, and instead of heading
west they went to Coney Island. They
got caught in the rain and when night
came entered the home of Albert Lam
bert, 552 Forty-ninth street, Brooklyn.
There they were found by the inmates,
who took them for burglars, but who
later fed them we'll, ever though 1t was
early in the morning.

THE / OF E A

Somewhat Unexpectedly the Ameri-
can Smelling and Refining company
has cut its standing quotations on lead
in the New York market. This is the
first change in its price since Novem-
Der, 1910, when the quotation was
marked up 10 cents per 100 pounds. No
special explanation is forthcoming ex-
cept that it is intimated that the trade
has suffered recently in common with
other business from too much political
agitation. The consumption of the
metal is said to have slackened. A
great deal of secrecy has long existed
with respect to the lead industry, and
it is not known just how the stocks of
metal stand with reference to the pre-
vailing demand. The American
Smelling and Refining company, being
the large selling factor in the situation
by virtue Of the control of this branch
OF smelling, possesses the power to
regulate prices within certain import
ant limits, and it is well known that
since the panic of 1907, when the com
pany found itself pretty well over
loaded with stocks of the metal, it has
not been as ready with information as
it had been before that date.
The production Of lead during the
last year or more has been the largest
in some years, the total of the product
smelted or refined in the United States
during 1910 having been about $780,
600 tons, approximately nine per cent
greater than the production of 1907.
The supplies available for domestic
consumption at the opening of the
year were greater than at the opening
Of the panic year. In the light of these
figures and the circumstance of the
late reduction in price the inference is
that . steady a~ccumulating surplus
exists. The mines of eastern Missouri
were never so active and the Occur
d'Alene district will probably show a
further gain this year. The lead stocks
in bonded warehouses January l were
twice as great as ON the corresponding
date of the previous year, but in view
of the absence of data from the larg-
est interest, the smelling company, this
fact can be accepted only as an indi-
cation.
In view of the intimate relation ex-
isting between the supply of linseed
oil and the white lead industry, the re-
