Call Measure Revised.
FlLlBUSTER IS PLANNED.

WASHINGTON. Feb. s3-The way
wa opened FOR a revision OF the tarir
IN all necessities " lie when Senator
Cummins ,R~cpublIcin ot Iowa) to-day
secured the adoption Wy the Senate OF a
resolution calling on President raft for
all information collected by the tarir
board on all the articles and commodities
named IN the Canadian reciprocity
agreement. The surprising combination
~ Senator hale ,liepublican OF MaineJ.
ironciai silni p,t,er, lined up with
Cuinmins. the .nsurgent leader. Indicated
an organized opposition to the adoption
OF the agreement ut this session.
Senate Cummins's resolution called
for all tables and statistics gathered
by the Tariff Board bearing upon ar
ticles which lter into the trade be-
tween Canada and the United States,
whether covered By the pending agree
ment or not. After a brief discussion
II was adopted.
The resolution received the practical
approval of several old guar d senators,
ana especially OF Senator Hale. who
said that he was In sympathy with
f''' a'N' 80 N"f'A - cav w WI
tircly new negotiations with Canada.
This statement vas In response to a
frank aNoNal By Mr.. Cummins that he
purposed TO offer amendments to tho
Mccall Bill. to the END that articles
which farmers have to buy sail be
reduced TO the plane of products OF
the soil which arc put on the free list
by the Canadian agreement.
In indurslng the Cummin resolution
Mr.. Hale said that 1t was designed to
obtain Information. which might be Of
use later II not now. The inference
drawn from this remark was that the
agreement would not be
adop,ed at the present, session II the OBJ
Jectors could prevent action.
1T is my belief" said Senator Hale,
that the Canadian agreement or the
bill to give 1t force. was never submitted
TO the tariff board at all. that the mem
bers OF tae board never were consulted,
and that they had no knowledge OF
what was going on"

bers of the Legislature who up to date
have been voting for William T.. Shee-
han for Uni ed States Senator served
notice to-day on Democratic Floor Lead
er A. T.. Smith that the deadlock must
end early next week. The names of the
twenty-one who sent this message TO
their party leader cannot he learned,
but they were represented by Assembly
man Seeley OF Steubcn County. who
started a position to-day FOR Dix FOR
Senator. and Assemblyman J. l.. Patrie
OF Green County.
When asked about his ult.matum,
Leader Smith said:
Two members OF tho Assembly from
rural districts came to me ,o-cay and
told me that they thought that the
deadlock ought to end. They said that
as they had stuck this long they would
ontinue to stand by the caucus, but
they thought that at the end of the
seventh week Of the deadlock. I. as
party leader on the floor, ought TO know
that they felt that the party was benz
injured by a continuation of the dead
lock. They said that. in their opinion.
the returns from the spring elections
bore out this View

While Assemblyman Smith does not
view II that way, the rurals who we're
represented by this committee of two
declare that their message to the party
floor leader was a frank avowa. that
something must be done II they Nere
expected to stand by the party much
longer.
1t is almost the unanimous opinion OF
both Democratic regulars and lnsur-
gents that the fight will 0e ended early
next week. and that a Senator will be
siected before March I.

gent meeting tom slt to persuade all the

Taft Meets Members Of the
Cabinet for First Time
in Three Weeks
Work Of Coming Congress
will Center Upon Tariff
and Trusts
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-Taft met
the cabinet today for the first time in
three months. Secretary of War
Stimson, who is in Kansas, where to-
day he made an address on the Pana
ma Canal, was the only member alb
sent. The reassembling of the Presi-
dents official family gave occurrence
to the rumor that secretary Wilson is
soon to retire. This is generally be-
lieved true and in official circles it is
stated that the secretary of agricul-
ture is only delaying his announcement
until the president decides upon an
other man. it is said the portfolio
has been offered to at least two men
prominent in scientific agricultural
work, by both of whom it was de-
clined. 1t is understood the presi-
dents wishes today pointed out that
the work of the coming congress would
center upon two main issues, the tariff
and the trusts.

PlIIFUL letter
ASKS FOR ASSISTANCE
GOVERNOR BURKE RECEIVES PA.
THETiC MISSIVE FROM
GWYTHER.
Bismarckers Can Do Real Charitable
Act If They Respond to Call Of Dis
tress.

Pat Byrne, private secretary to the
governor, found in the executive mail
this morning very pathetic letter
from a mother whose family is in dis
tress. In the letter the poor woman
tells of poverty and destitution. Her
husband is confined to his bed with
rheumatism and unable to work to
support his family. The burden falls
heavily upon the mother and daugh-
ter, aged II. There are two boys in
the family, aged and 8, but they are
too young to be of much assistance in
the battle for bread. The winter is
now on and the mother is fearful for
the health of her children. What she
asks is secondhand wearing apparel
to be made over. She says if the
good people of Bismarck will send cast
aside clothing to Mrs. Ella Schiltz.
Gwyther, N. D., they will be thank
fully received. Secretary Byrne says
there are many people in Bismarck
who will gladly respond to this call of
distress when made acquainted with
the circumstances. Vomens' apparel
and mems and children's clothing will
come as a godsend to this family.
which can be made over
will suit the purpose. There is much
of such clothing in closets and waste
bags which will never be used by the
owners and it could he put to good
use by the family at Gwyther.
