LONGWORTH PRESENTS
 TARIFF COMMISSION BILL Provides for Permanent Board With Powers Deemed Necessary to Make for Efficiency.

Washington, Jan. 5.-The tariff com mission bill was introduced In the house today. It was framed by Rep resentative Longworth of Ohio after conferences with President Taft and with insurgent republicans.
 It provides for a permanent tariff board and further powers to make it a thoroughly efficient body, particu- Iarly as to facilities for investigat ations.
 Mir Longworth said he purposed to press his measure, which embodies what he regarGs as the best features of the Lenroot, Goode and other bills, and hoped to obtain a favorable report from the ways and means committee promptly
 Washington. Jan. 5.-Practical en- dorsement of the Longworth tariff bill was made tonight by John Candler Cobb. on behalf of the National Tar if Commission association, of which he is president.
 T most cordially endorse the bill" said MT. Cobb. after 3 conference with MT. LongWorth. 'The measure incor- pcrates the best features of all the bills under discussion. The provisions in his bill in regard to subpoena of witnesses and calling for books and papers, which is based upon similar provision in the Lenroot bill, seems to be a very good solution of a much dis cussed question and has our most hearty support. There are some mi nor points not entirely in accord with the views of our association, such as the term of office of the commission CTS. Our idea is that there should be d ten-year term instead of six, one commissioner being appointed every two years; also the provision as to the rero ts of the commission which we think might well be changed so that either branch of congress could call for reports without joint action"

AN UNCHARTED SHOAl
 GRIPS LUMBER SCHOONER.
The Silver Heels Temporarily Aban-
 doned by Captain and Crew.

Chatham, Mass. Jan. 5.-An un- charted shoal near Shovelful lightship interrupted the passage today of the go of laths from Great Salmon River, N. B., to Vineyard Haven, for orders, and tonight the vessel was still in the grip of the sands, temporarily aban- doned by her skipper and crew. Cap tain Cotter. whose home is in Rock land Me. and his four men passed the night with the life savers of Monomoy Point, who under Captain Kelley went out to the distressed craft today.
 Although great seas were running over the shoals tonight, 1t is hoped that the schooner, which is leaking badly, will be saved. She rests on a narrow shoal formed during recent years by shifting sands and strong tide ebbing to the west probably will carry her off. The revenue cutter Gresham passed the cape this afternoon on her way to the scene.

 missioner Edwards.

New York. Jan. 5.-Counsel for James J. Gallagher will appeal from the yer dict found against him yesterday on which he was sentenced to twelve years in jail for shooting Commissioner w. H. Edwards of the street cleaning department. with intent to kill" Com missioner Edwards bounced on Galla- gher just after the latter had shot Mayor Gaynor and in shielding the mayor from another shot was wounded himself in the arm. The point will be made that although Gallagher may have shot with intent to kill" he did not intend to kill Commissioner Ed wards, as is specifically charged In the indictment.
 Justice Swayze instructed the jury which had questioned him on this point:
 If he intended to shoot, he intended the consequences of that act, and you have the right to infer from the fact that he used a deadly weapon that he intended to kill whenever he struck whether Edwards or someone else"

Most Divorees Laid to the High Cost
 of Living.

Cleveland, O., Jan. 5.-The high cost of living is blamed for most divorces by Judge W. B. Neff, who during the term of court just ended, granted 428 separations, breaking the record for this, Cuyahoga county.
 High prices coupled with small in comes, resulting in an intense strug- gle to keep up appearances and grati- fy social ambitions, are responsible for the wrecktng of a large number of homes,' said Judge Neff today
 Perhaps if we adopted the pruden- tial marriage system of Europe we should be better off. Courtshin in America is often a mere social llas- querade.

 Still faileth day by day. Her soul with faith increasing PursueS its heavenward way. And when the mists of Jordan
