WILL OPPOSE
AMENDMENTS
Senator MARITIME Wants His
Reciprocity Straight.
tFrom the NEWS cOrrsspondent.)

sCFOt INC " We tOTFcSpDLLStE.l
Washington, June 10:-Senator
MARITIME, Of New Jersey, has deter
mined to cast his vote in opposition
to all efforts to load up the proposed
Canadian reciprocity agreement with
amendments, such as are to be pro
posed by Senator Root and other SEN
ators who are classed as either half
h~eartedly in favor of the measure or
ayowedly opposed to 1t.
yes, l am in favor of putting the
reciprocity agreement through the
senate in exactly the same form as 1t
was received from the House" said
Senator MARITIME yesterday in answer
to a question as to where he would
stand on the propositions to amend
the measure in one way or another.
Naturally, l am in favor of making
very sweeping changes in our tariff
laws so as to make trade relations
between this country and Canada as
easy and free as between the states
themselves. In this view, I person
ally wish that the proposed recipro-
cal relations applied to all the trade
with our friends across the northern
border, but after consideration I am
ASANSo W Nht tAol as al
immediate legislative proposition the
most that we can hope to attain at
this time is included in the proposed
agreement as 1t has been passed by
the House under Democratic control.
For the senate to now amend the bill
would, in my opinion, j~eopardize the
whole measure. In fact, there is
very good reason to believe that
amendments would defeat it.
Il believe it would be a great mis-
fortune for the proposed reciprocal
agreement to meet with defeat at
this time. While 1t does not meet
effectively all of the conditions that
| would like to see remedied by the
tearing down Of the barriers of the
tariff system between this country
and Canada, It does go a great way in
this direction. II We can make this
advance at this time. I am certain
that 1T will be the opening wedge for
further change in our tariff system
that will rebound to the advantage
of the country at large. So far as
my vote and influence will count. I
am determined to cast it on the side
of those who are opposed to amend
ments to the bill"

The senate yesterday confirmed
the nomination Of James F. Sherman
as postmaster at F~renchtown. Pres
ldent Taft made the appointment of
Mr.. sherman on the recommended
tlon OF Representative Wood, of the
Fourth New Jersey District. This is

SURE TO HEAR
STOKES CASE
millionaire Will Prosecute
Two Young Women.

New York, June 10.-After being as
sured at Roosevelt hospital that w. e.
D. Stokes, proprietor of the Hotel An
sonia, who was shot Wednesday night
by Lillian Graham and Ethel Conrad,
will undoubtedly recover, lawyers for
Mr.. Stokes declare that they will push
the prosecution of the girls as soon as
be is able to appear In court. With
this repeated assertion that the case
rill not be dropped relatives of Miss
Graham and Miss Conrad have decid-
Id to go to their assistance.
While admitting there was nothing
b any letters written by Mr.. Stokes
hat would cause him worry, lawyers
ieclare that 1t was to get possession
IF them that he went to the Varuna
apartment house. Terence j. Nc
hanus, counsel for Mr.. Stokes, asserts
that he had nothing to add to this
statement, except that Mr.. Stokes Is
determined to prosecute the young wo-
men.
Meantime the lawyers for both sides
say that they are ignorant of the
whereabouts Of the Stokes letters
about which so much has been said.
Mr.. Phillips thinks that the police
have them, but this Is denied. Mr..
Stokes counsel say that they don't be-
1eve the police found the letters when
they gathered up the papers found in
the fat after the shooting. Mr.. Stokes
counsel rather expects that the letters
will turn up when the young women
are brought to trial on the charge of
assault with intent to kill, but they
say that 1t ISL t a matter to worry
a man" to write compromising letters.
One of the detectives working on
the case points out that the sequence
Of the happenings was rather interest
Ing. He says that on May 25 Miss
Graham went to Stokes Office In the
Ansonia hotel and, after demanding
money and being refused, threatened
to kill herself; that on May 81 both
girls purchased revolvers; that q few
days later Miss Graham received 5000
from Stokes and led him to believe
she had left the country, and that on
June Z the young with the
newly purchased revolyers received
Mr.. Stokes at their fat.
Lawyer Phillips says that Miss Ora
hams sisters, Mrs. John Singleton of
Los Angeles, the wife of the owner of
the famous Yellow Aster mine, and
Mrs. Alice Andrews, a widow, who
lives in San Francisco, had promised
to see that Miss Graham got bail and
that Miss Conrad's mother, Mrs.
Charles Nagel of this city, would
stand by her daughter. Congressman
NJ. w. Littleton has refused to take
Miss Graham's case, and 1t is probable
that Mr.. Phillips will appear for her
as well as for Miss Conrad on Mon
day.
