Debate Cotton Tariff Bill.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14,-A discus-
sion of the cotton tariff bill began In
the senate late this afternoon. Sena.
tor Cummins advocated amending the
bill by providing for revision of the
iron and steel tariff schedules. The
reduction in duties on mental products
called for in his amendment are the
same as those he offered two years ago
to the Payne.Aldrich tariff bill.

would have been no cotton mills in

tion.
"The great fight in our coming elec.
tion,' said Senator Cummins, "will
not be over the platform as to what
protection is."
Mr.. Cummins declared the war cry
OF the coming campaign would be
"shall there be free trade for the farm
er, protection for the manufacturer,
free trade for North Dakota and Min

New York and Pennsylvania?"

Mayor Edwards Resigns.

HELENA, Aug. 9.-Mayor Frank J..
Edwards resigned his Office and City
Attorney Edward Horsky was elected
to succeed him at an executive session
of the city council which did not ad.
journ until 2 o'clock this morning.
In executive session Mr.. Edwards
explained that recent events had dem.
onstrated his policies did not meet
with the approval of the majority of
the people, and he had agreed to offer
his conditional resignation. One was
the voting by an overwhelming ma
jority OF the bonds for the purchase of
the present water plant, an issue
which Mr.. Edwards strenuously op-
posed.
Hs then agreed to resign If the coun'
Gil would select as his successor one
of several men he would propose. He
then asked the council to take vote
on the question that it be the sense OF
that body that Edward Horsky be his
successor. The vote was taken and
all but one alderman voted favorably
to the proposition, and this one
changed his vote.

Senator Frye Dead.

LEWISTON, Me-, Aug. S.-The state
of Maine lost its senior United States
senator and an almost lifelong faith
ful servant when William Pierce Frye
died today at the home of his daugh-
ter, Mrs. Alice Briggs, who also re-
sides here. Although he had been i'll
for long time, death came suddenly.
Forced by the condition of his
health to resign his position as presi-
dent pro tempore of the senate at the
beginning of the present special ses'
sion of congress, although he re-
tained his mem bership in the senate
Senator Frye soon afterwood made
his last journey to the city which al
ways had been his home. For several
weeks his condition was not consid-
cred necessarily dangerous. Up to
last week he rested in comparative
comfort, spending much OF his time iu
reading or in having some member o1
his family read to him.
A general breakd down due to age and
his extremely arduous career Is as
cribed as the cause of death.

A Veto Expected.

WASHINGTON, Aug 10.-The New
Mexico. Arizona statehood bill was
put up to President Taft today for his
expected veto when the house con-
Cured with the SEN ate amendments to
the measure. Already both houses
have canvassed the possibility of
passing the measure over the expected
veto, which will be based on the
judiciary rec all provision of the bill,
Some of the senatorial friends of
statehood have reached the conclusion
that a passage in the senate over a
veto is probable. Figuring that OF
the IS votes cast for the bill fully a
dozen will be lost in an attempt to
override a veto, without any source
from which the deficit can be made
good to make up the required so votes
on the second attempt. There Is nc
doubt as to the passage of the bill iu
the house, and some senators contend
tn at its success in the house would
strengthen it in the senate.

NEW YORK, August 13.-Admiral
Togo today paid warriors tribute to
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt. Appar-

TREATIES OBJECTED TO.
The Senate Viii Not Ratify Them IN
less Amended.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-Friends OF
the British and French arbitration
treaties in the enate have reached the
conclu sion tn at it will be necessary to
amend the conventions in order to get
favorable action upon them. This
conclusion is the result of the con-
slider alton of the documents by the
sem ate committee on foreign relations
which has taken them up in vigorous
fashion.
After two prolonged sittings the COM
mittee adjourned late today to meet
again Saturday. Roth meetings were
devoted to the considerable of the
documents on their merits, the first in
company with secretary Knox, and the
second by the members themselves
without the secretary's aid.
No effort was made to have the trea.
ties reported, andiit became extremely
dou btful to some ofithe friends of the
administr alton whether such a course
would be wise at present, as objections
have been made to some features of
the agreement, as they now appear.
Especial objection was made at both
sittings to the provisions submitting
questions of differences to the joint
high commissioned inquiry, but fault
was also found with the provision in
the French treaty authorizing ratitica.
tion by that government in accorda ance
with the procedure required by the
laws of France, and with the condition
in the British treaty that matters
affecting dependencies of Great Britain
should be submitted to the govern
ments Of such dependencies.
1t was thought that the latter clause
might lead to undesirable compli.
cations, while it was feared that the
former might necessitate q change in
the method of proceeding in this coun.
try.
Despite all the objections it became
evident, however, that the power con-
ferred on the joint commission is the
only real obstacle to early action.

glad to sign the statehood bill If the
Nelson amendment prev allied but th at
it was grave question whether he
would be willing to sign it If the
amendment were defeated, as it was
by 43 to 26.
The indications are tonight hat the
bill will become law without his sig
nature. The senate amended the house
bill with two minor shanges regarding
the manner of voting in New Mexico
on proposed amendments to its con-
stitutiou. These will undoubtedly be
agreed to by the house aud the bill
will be expedited to the White house.
These amendments were reported by
the senate committee on territories
and agreed TO without debate.
Practically al! the debate on the bill
centered around the Nelson amend.
ment. Even some senators who ue-
clared opposition to the recall OF

on the ground that if the people OF

EXPECT TAFT'S VETO.
Wool Tariff Bill May Not Receive
Presidents Approval.

WASHINGTON, August 12.-Tariff
legislation moved swiftly onward in
congress today toward the expected
presidential veto. The complete con-
ference agreement on the wool bill was
reported to the house with view to
final action in that body through the
adoption of the conference report on
Monday. The free list bill, discussed
in committee as a m after subsidiary to
the wool measure, was disagreed to.
as were its two chief amendments, the
house amendment adding lemons to
the free list and the Kern senate
amendment limiting free meat and
cereal products to those countries with
which the United States as reciprocal
trade agreements. All its other
amendments were accepted.
Democratic leaders said today ad.
journment of congress would come
within week or ten days.
There was little argument in con
ference over the free list amendments
On the motion of Mr.. Underwood the
conference committee adopted the sen
ate amendments putting binders
cement and all kinds OF boots and
shoes on the free list, and instructed
that a disagreement on the othe1
amendments be reported to the hous'
and senate Monday.

THE WOOL TARIFF,
The Conference Committee Getting
Closer Together and Agreement
Is Probable.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE house
and senate conference committee on
the wool tariff revision bill today
agreed on e at rate OF 20 per cent on
raw wool. The committee also agreed
on the house classification of wool.
The agreement on those two points
seemed to remove the greatest obsta.
Gle in the way Of final agreement,
which it was said might be reached.
There was apparently determina-
tion to force an early agreement on
the wool measure. Threats to post
pone the present session indefinitely
If an agreement were not reached were
freely made.
The free list bill, it is said, was re-
ceiving comparatively little attention,
many senators and representatives
insisting that it be subordinated to
wool. As agreed on, the classifi a.
tion provision of the bill reads: son
wool of the sheep, hair of the camel,
goat, alapaca aud other like animals,
and on all woods and hair cn the stain
Of such amin ais The duty shall be 20
per cent ad valorem.'
The LaFoliette bill called for two
classes of wool-wool and hair on
the stain being in second class
whereas the house provision accepted
By the conference provided but one
class for all woods.
Under the compromise the second
senate class of wools, fixed in the SEN
ate bill at 10 per cent, is thus increased
to 20 per cent. These are coarse or
carpet woods. The senate rate on first
class woods was 81 per cent and the
house rate 20 per cent.
