TAFT is ATTACKED
UNDERWOOD REPORT ON WOOL
TARIFF REVISION BILL.
Minority Members of Ways and Means
Committee Declare Measure Cold
BIooded.

Washington.-The long expected
wool tariff revision bill was presented
to the house by Chairman Underwood
of the ways and means committee.
The long report accompanying 1t at
tacks President Taft and the tariff
board.
quoting President Taft's addresses
after the passage of the Payne-Aldrich
bill, in which he declared that "the
woolen schedule Is indefensible and
l propose to say So" the report says:
Had the president made these pub
lie admissions earlier, while the tariff
of 1909 was under consideration, by
congress, his declarations would have
been of real service to the people and
would have enabled them to protest
against the betrayal Of the public wei
fare to private greed.
The report deals at some length
with the attitude of the administra.
tion in not communicating to congress
| data on the steel trust" and other In
dustries now being investigated, and
the failure of the tariff board to com
municate data on the woolen in,
| dustry.
"Yhe position of the tariff board ap-
pears to be-" says the report, that
they, in conference with and under
the sole control of the president, shall
be the sole judges as to what part OF
the data they collect may be likely to
be of service for purposes of legisla-
ton; and this situation must be con
sidered with reference to the view
point of the president concerning tar
| iff legislation.
1T is, therefore. not impossible that
there may be some such delay in the
communication to the congress of sta
tistical information collected by the
tariff board concerning wool and wool
en- goods as there has been in com
municating to congress or making pub
| lie the data by the bureau of corpora
tions concerning Investigations of the
steel and other industries"
The report maintains that any
further delay in the revision Of the
| wool and wooden schedule would be
Objectionable to the public.
A minority report is signed by
Messrs. Payne, Dalzell. Needham and
Longworth. For purely political rea-
sons" it says. this cold-blooded
measure is brought forward. II 1t
could become law it would slaughter
sheep as in 1894 and close the mills
much more universally"

MIND A BLANK FOR MONTHS
Prohibition Worker, Succumbs 70
Paresis in Sanitarium at Leaven-
worth, kan.-onIy Physician and
Nurse at Bedside When End Comes.

Leavenworth, Kan.-Mrs. Carrie E.
Nation of Ratchet fame, who devoted
her life to fight on the sale of liquor
and cigarettes, died in the Evergreen
sanitarium here of paresis. aged six
ty-six years. She had been suffering
from a nervous breakdown since jan
uary last.
Although it has been reported sew
eral times since she came here that
she was dead, her death was not ex-
pected until several days ago.
Mrs. Nation in the sanitarium was
incapable of even managing her own
business affairs, all trace of the bold
prohibition worker had disappeared
when her iron constitution began to
fail, and she spent the last five months
of her life in seclusion, no one but
relatives and hospital attendants be-
ing allowed to see her. When told
several days ago that she would die,
Mrs. Nation made no comment. Only
DR.. A. L. Suwalsky and nurse were
with her when death came.
Mrs. Nations entry into fame was
made at Wichita, Kan, several years
ago, when she demolished a saloon
with hatchet. Later she repeated
the performance on several other Kan
sas towns. Kansas, however, was too
small for her proclivities and she car
ried her sensational fight against the
saloons into some of the larger cities
of this country.
Her body will be taken to Kansas
interment will be held.

GATES IS DISPUTED
GARY DENIES THAT THREATS LED
TO MERGER.
Says RooseVeIt's AcquieSeenee in Coal
Deal Was Act Of Constructive
Craftsmanship.

Washington.-Elbert H. Gary, ex-
ecutive head of the United States
Steel corporation, told the house
investigating committee a version OF
the formation of that enterprise which
contradicted testimony of John w.
Gates that the threats Of Andrew Car
negie 10 build rival railroads and tube
works had induced j. Pierpont Morgan
to institute negotiations eliminating
in the gigantic steel combination
Such matters as | learned were
testified to by Mr.. Gates before this
committee" Mr.. Gary said, after de-
tailed statement of the formation of
the steel combination, never were
spoken of in the deliberations over the
deal. l do not remember that Mr. Nor
gan ever mentioned these matters to
me-"
Mr.. Gary said that Mr.. Gates had
nothing to do with questions regarding
the charter and form of organization
of the steel corporation.
Mr.. Gary, in the course of his testi'
mony, declared that II former Presi
dent Roosevelt had not approved oi
the absorption of the Tennessee Coal
and Iron company by the United
States Steel corporation he. Gary
never would have voted 10 consum
mate that deal
Mr.. Gary, cross-examined by Mr.. Lit
Teton Of New York, elaborated his
views as to government supervision oi
corporations and pleaded for greater
cooperation between government of
ficials and the directing forces of bis
business combinations. Mr.. Gary in
sisted that the government was JUS
as likely to go too far in one direction
as the corporations in another.
Mr.. Gary denied charges, attributed
to Senator Oliver of Pennsylvania
that the Steel corporation was trying
portation lines so as to cut out wa
ter competition in the shipment O
coal.
These charges were set forth b!

Returning to the absorption of thu

Littleton asked lust when" that trans
action relieved the financial situation.
Just as soon as we sent back wore
from Washington that Presiden
Roosevelt would allow the deal to b,
made" Mr.. Gary said. II don't know
what the committee thinks about it
but myself believe that the action o
the president in this connection was /;
piece of real constructive statesman

Mr.. Gary again declared in tn,
course Of further questioning tina
President Roosevelt and Secretary o
State Root not only sanctioned the alb
sorption of the Tennessee Coal ant
Iron company by the Steel corporation
but held it to be necessary to aver
widespread financial disaster.
Mr.. Gary said anew that financia
conditions in 1907 were such tha
something had to be done to prevent {
panic. The conference at the Whit
House, he declared. was the final stel
in the campaign of prevention, and h.
added that if the administration ha'
declined to permit the combination o
the two big steel properties he woul'
have opposed it in the Steel corpora
