100000 square kilometres in Northern
French Congo, touching the German
Kameruns.
The territory ceded ia inhahitaa- hss
about 100000 negroes and its COM

With nearly 1,90o delegates in attend

Association opened two days' seq
sion here to-day for the purpose of
giving added force to the movement
for the creation by Congress Of per-
rnanent national tariff commission.
Prominent business men and manu-
facturers from New England, New
York and other Northern States form
ed the major portion of the dele
gates. Representative Samuel w. Nc
Call. of Massachusetts,. who address
ed the morning session, laid emphasis
on the fact that a tariff commission
would gather economic data of even
greater service TO the people than to
Congress. He said also In part:
Another function of which little
has been said. but which 1t Is most
important that the commission should
perform, Is to ascertain the effect of
the tariff tpou the prices OF articles
az general consumption.
THE action OF an intelligent COM
mission would remove many subjects
from the realm OF political discussion
and settle I'm the public mind issues
which we now attempt to settle by
loud assertions by one party and
equally loud denials by the other"
among tnS ntneF speakers to-uay
were Prof. II. c. Emory. OF the tartr
