too great numbers, were Offering too
much cheap labor and, however,

Mr.. OLIVER DISAGREES
Senator Defends Farmer Against
Reciprocity Plan.

Pittsburg, Jan 7a-United States Sem
ator George T. Oliver. who came from
Washington to-day 10 speak at the Mckln-
ley dinner Of the Young Mems Republican
Tariff Club tonight. startled his hearers
when he openly differed from President
Taft in his Canadian reciprocity policy.
Senator Oliver said, IN part
I'm this connection l want 10 say word
or two about the reciprocity agreement be-
tween our country and Canada, which the
President sent 10 Congress for approval
on Thursday last The object OF this agree
nent is either 10 reduce or to wipe out
the duties now levied on many Canadian
products, in return for which we are to
obtain like concessions from the Canadian
government which will greatly benefit a
number OF our industries. There IS no
doubt that the effect Of this arrangement
will be 70 stimulate trade between us and
our Northern neighbors, but in considering
this proposition We must not lose sight of
the fact that Canadian products mostly
affected are Of the fruits OF the soil, while
the benefit to be derived by our people VIII
largely accrue to the industrial or manu-
featuring class.
u have not had time to read the pending
measure with that care TO which its i'm
portance entities it. but from such cursory
examination as l have made it seems to
me that IT does tend TO do harm TO some
OF our most important industries, and Is,
therefore, not entitled 10 our support"

FIRE HALTS EXAMINATIONS
Small Blaze Nearly Breaks Up
Columbia Midyears.

a small fire in a pile Of boards in West
l21st street yesterday afternoon nearly
broke up the Columbia midyear ex-
arninations which were being held in the
university gymnasium, only a block
away. About five hundred students were
taking examinations IN various subjects,
when an engine came dashing down the
Amsterdam avenue hill past the univer-
sity building.
Al Of the examinations in the gym
nasium are started and ended by the
ringing OF big bell, exactly like those
on the fire engines. which hangs from
the gallery and is operated by Profes-
sor William Addison Hervey. director Of
examinations. At the first clang Of the
engine bell in the street outside several
Of the proctors rushed down the aisles
collecting the papers in spite Of the
protests Of the students. who vainly in
sisted that the time would not be up for
another hour.
One student. who was completely abb
sorbed in his work. and is z member Of
the volunteer fire department in Pea

was halfway through the door when
Professor Hervey caught him by the
coattails and assured him that he was
in New York and that the fire would
be extinguished without his assistance.

AIorschauser declared that the Matteawan

the court. Tier childishness has got her

quickly corrected him. and insisted that #
