Washington, May 3. - The senate
committee on finance decided to de-
vote the time between now and Sat
urday, May 10, to hearings on the Ca
madam reciprocity bill. Immediately
after that date this expected the bill
will be reported to the senate.
While there is no intention to per
NIT the hearings to involve the free
list bill, so as to delay consideration
of reciprocity, witnesses will be per
mftted to make incidental arguments
bearing upon that bill. The first ex
preston, to be made by representa-
tives of the shoe interests, will be de
voted principally to contention against
the free list bill.
After next Monday the committee
will meet daily and sit through each
day, but during the remainder of the
present week, the meetings will be
desultory.
Senator Nelson of Minnesota and
McCumber of North Dakota both asked

Attack Made on Free List Bill.

-
Washington, May 3.-Protection and
free trade were the themes of de.
bate In the house over the Democratic
bill to, put agricultural implements,
certain food products and manufac-
tured articles on the free list. Mr..
Tilson of Connecticut, said his state,
usually referred to in tariff debates
as a manufacturing community, held
large and important farming interests
but that the farmers Of that state re
fused to be caught by the name farm
ers' free list bill' on the Democratic
measure.
Messrs. S. w. Smith of Michigan
and Burke of South Dakota, Republi
cans, opposed the measure, because
of it's assault upon the doctrine o.
protection" Mr.. Catlin of Missouri
declared that it would give firmel
foothold in the United States to the
growing Japanese trade.
Messrs. Byrns and Sims of Tennes
see and Lever and Byrnes of South
Carolina, all Democrats. defend the
bill. y
A three cornered fight over the eiec
ton of a president pro tempore OF
the senate to succeed Senator Frye is
in prospect. Senator Gallinger is the
general choice of the regular Repub.
licans, but he is unsatisfactory tc
many progressives who are considering
putting forward for the Office one OF
their own men. probably Senator
Clapp, to show they hold the balance
Of power.
It is asserted he would get at least
ten votes, sufficient to prevent Gal
linger's election. Senator Bacon prob
ably will receive the Democratic vote

Weather Crop Bulletin.

For the week ending May l. 1911.
The fore part of the week was cool
with frost, and in some localities. ice
on three nights, but the latter half was
warmer; the mean temperature being
slightly above the normal although the
temperature on the morning of May LIST
was near or below the freezing point in
the northwestern half of the state.
Light. but fairly we'll distributed show
ers occurred on the 26th and moderate
to heavy rains fell over the southern
sections on the night of the 28th and
the 10Th with more general rains on the
night of the 3Oth which changed to or
was mixed with snow over the northern
counties on the morning of May LIST.
The week, however, was favorable for
field work and rapid progress was made
in blowing for corn. A large acreage
has been prepared and in many sections
the blowing is nearly finished. Some
corn has been planted and planting will
be general during the coming week if
favorable weather prevails. Grass is
growing rapidly since the late showers
and stock are being turned onto pasture
Small grains are showing up nicely and
are in good condition. The early varie-
ties of fruit are in full bloom in the
southern, and cherry and plum trees
are beginning to blossom in the GEN.
trail counties. The cool wave now ap-
preaching from the northwest will
cause freezing temperatures in many
sections of the state tonight and the
fruit buds may be damaged.
