ing his two daughters. Anita. aged

boulevard mt winthrop. Just before
noon yesterday, Ludwig f. jaeger.
thirty years old, of Chicago. shot aud
killed both the children and ended his
own life with n shot from the same
revolver.
A letter found on the dead man
written by himself outlined the tras-
edy and requested that his body he
cremated and his ashes he placed
aboard German-American Line
steamer and when the ship Is well at
sea that his ashes be cast overheard.
Jaeger is said to be the son OF II
German state official and to have bee i
employed in the German consulate a
Chicago He lived in Chicago with
his wife and two children up to
year ago. When Mrs. Jaeger divorced
him. The custody OF the children

he arrived DAGGER. was talking WITH
Mrs Moore. Two little girls went BY
the house Jaeger pointed to them and
said:
Those are my children"
Jaeger made no explanation 10 Mrs
Moore. BY this time Jaeger had found

wages in different lines of industry
| but practically none Of this is of much
! value for discussion of the tariff ques'
tons since wages per day or per week
sifinify little as to the actual labor
cost per unit of article. The investi
cation now being made by the tariff
board into the textile industries will
develop a knowledge regarding wages
III relation to the amount of output
efficiency of laborers and machines in
this and leading countries Of char
acter never made public before and
based on the actual wages paid and
output secured of the thousands OF
laborers and thousands of machines,
as shown by the pay roofs of the com.
panies checked up by the earnings Of
individual men.
The Bureau Of corporations has in
some cases made very careful exam.
ination into costs of production. These
Investigations, however, were MT un.
dertaken primarily with reference to
their bearing on tariff legislation So
far az they cover the ground reces-
sary for such purpose, there will be
no need of this work being duplicated
by the tariff board. This is especially
true OF the metal schedule. It is only
necessary to supplement this material
by such other information as may be
vital to consideration of the tariff
r;0ler.
The best way to understand the
peculiar character of the investtga-
tiOns Of the tariff board il to COM
pare their published report on pulp
and news-pf1nt paper either with the
statistical work of other government
agencies regarding this industry or
with the hearings before the ways
and means committee. It is shown
that this investigation does not in
any way duplicate the statistical work
Of the other departments, but that its
scope is quite different, and yet the
investigation develops data essential
to an understanding of industries
from a point of view of the tariff.
Different Methods Of Investigation.
It will also appear that the method
Of investigation is quite different
from that Of congressional commit.
tee, and the Information afforded
much more detailed in character, and
on the other hand, is much more con-
densed than the Information devel-
oped by the verbal examination Of
witnesses. The work of the board up
to date in the way of detailed in
quiry has been through several dozen
agents working on the books Of per-
sons engaged in the production or
manufacture of the articles IN nuas.
ton in foreign countries and abroad.
What congressional committee ever
even attempted such an Investigation,

Board of Three Appointed.

Through a provision in the Payne
bill, was able to appoint board OF
three, and with appropriations fur
nished by congress to direct them to
make a glossary Of the tarih, or an
encyclopedia, by which a layman
might inform himself as to the mean
ing of the terms in the tariff and as
to the actual ad valOrem rates i'm
posed. although specific rates were
provided, and all the other facts en-.
abling one to take up tariff ana
intelligently to study it's meaning.
The movement for the permanent
organization of tariff commission,
after the passage of a bill for that
purpose was put through both houses,
failed by reason of filibuster and
the shortness of the last session or
the sixty.first congress. Sufficient
money was given me, however, to con-
tinue the board which l had already
appointed. increased its member
ship by two, in order to make 1t a
non-partisan board and I directed 1t
to do the work that the bill which
failed had prescribed for the perma'
nent tariff board to be appointed there
under. At the instance of demo.
cratic senator, the permanent tarin
board, in a appropriation bill which
is now law, was directed II estab'
,ished. to make a report on Schedule
K on the 1st of December next. l
issued an order to the tari1 board.
newly constituted, to prepare a report
on Schedule X and Schedule !, the
wooden and cotton schedules, by that
date, which bring in the reports at
the opening of the regular session OF
congress.
Three Bills Vetoed Were Hastily
Drawn Up.
In order to secure an adoption OF
the Canadian reciprocity treaty /
called a special session to discharge
the promise l had made to the Cana
dian authorities. At this special ses-
sion the three tariff bills were passed
which l vetoed, and vetoed them
chiefly on the ground that no time
had been taken to investigate the
effect of the changes which were pro-
posed and that they ought to await
the coming in of the report in De-
cember, when we should have full
information at least On the question
of wool and woolens and cotton
manufactures. There were other
grounds for withholding my approval
from the bills, which are set forth
in the messages, but for the present
I do not wish to consider them.
am anxious here to bring forward the
issue as to the necessity for a tariff
board to advise congress of the facts
in respect to dutiable articles and the
operation of a tariff before it shall
be adopted into law
It has been said that the tariff
board is mere pretext, that 1t Is a
board Of my hirelings and clerks, and
that it is absurd for me to delay con-
gress in the enactment of that which
Is its highest privilege-to wit, rev.
enue measures-until I can secure,
through an agency Of mine, informa.
ton as to the wisdom of the pro-
posed bills.
My exercise of the veto power at
all is severely criticized as a remnant
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1911-09-25

cross.examinations to secure facts II
regard to the cost of the manufac
tured articles is not the best course
for getting at the facts.
1t is said with respect to the taria
board that its Investigations arc not
to be relied upon, because. it m is
secure it's Information from interested
parties, and that no Information Is
available to it that is not available
directly to the ways and means com.
mittee, and that the committee can
secure testimony of such people more
effectively than the tariff board
Such statement fails entirely to
recognize the real character Of the
Investigations of the tariff board. Ma
terial secured by that board is not in
the nature of testimony of different
parties examined as to what they
think on any of these facts. It is
in the result of an examination of the
books and records of producers and
manufacturers and a tabulation from
these by the expert agents of the
board, resulting in perfectly definite
and precise Information as to the ac-
tual results given by the best indus
trial or commercial operations for a
given time. In short, it is the sub
sanitation Of records compiled from
the books Of the concerns for the
testimony of individuals.
Work Of Board Not Altogether Stats
tieal.
Then again it is said that other
bureaus or agencies of the govern.
ment longer established and of bet
ter organization have made, or are
making, all the investigations Of this
kind necessary. The maker of such
an objection fails to appreciate the
marked difference between the work
Of the board and most other agencies
of the government. The work of the
tariff board is not primarily statis-
tical. Other agencies Of the govern
mept especially in the department Of
agriculture and the department of
commerce and labor, carry on stats
tical investigations Of much import
ance, much of which has to be used
by the tariff board, and in all cases
the tariff board endeavors to avoid
any duplication of work Of this kind.
But such statistical work as to pro-
duction, imports and exports, number
Of people employed, earnings per
week etc. are very small part Of
the investigation necessary for a con-
sideration of tariff problems. No
agency of the government has ever
done even statistical work primarily
with view to considering the effects
o, tariff rates on producers and con-
sumers. For instance, there is much
printed material on the subject Of
