WANTED BY COMMITTEE
1t Is Believed That Differences in
Party May Result i'm Setback OF
Champ Clark's Presidential Boom
Bryan Comments on Action OF
Caucus.

Washington, ID. c., June 2.-The
majority leaders of the house today
are actively planning to put the Un-
derwood tariff bill through at the
earliest possible moment 1t is gen.
orally believed that it will pass with
out delay now that the turbulent eau
Gus of the democrats unanimously
adopted the measure at midnight. The
caucus lasted II hours. The resolu-
ton adopted pledges all the house
democrats save Rucker of Colorado,
Ashbrook, Francis and Sharp Of
Ohio, and Gray of Indiana, as a rev.
enue measure. but it specifically left
open the party's advocacy of free
trade in wool to future settlement
Under the measure 20 per cent adva-
lorum will be assessed against the
foreign wool.
During the caucus the Bryan fol-
lowers presented the amendments for
free raw wool, but finally a compro-
mise was effected when it was agreed
that they would be settled after
wards
Bryan Not Needed.
The action of the democratic eau
Gus in endorsing the Underwood tariff
schedule is regarded as a notice to
Bryan to keep his hands off. 1t is
believed by many that this may re-
suit in the setback of Champ Clark's
presidential boom. Bryan holds
Clark responsible for the desertion
of the free wool idea, and it is be-
lieved that the commoner's friends
will fight against Clark's nomination
Chairman Underwood of the ways and
means committee, freely stated to-
Bryan's advice.
Bryan Makes Comment.
Minneapolis, William j. Bryan,
commenting on the endorsement Of
the Underwood wool bill by the eau
Gus lobby, said that the democrats are
responsible. to the country. He de-
clared that the matter of free VS..
protected wool was fought out on .
false basis. He said: 81 think the
party would have done better if it
had honestly declared for the protec-
ton on wool. The declaration that it
has not surrendered the free wool
doctrine adds an insult to the in
jury"
Introduced Today.
The Underwood wool tariff bill was
Introduced in the house today by
Burleson of Texas, who had the plac-
ing of duty on wool necessary through
the depletion of the treasury caused
by republican extravaganza" The
house adjourned until Tuesday.

$8,OOO,OOo PAPER
 COMPANY FORMED
Reciprocity Plan May Have Brought New York Capi- tai Into Ontario.

Saulte Ste. Marie, Mich.. March 14- TheLake Superior Paper Company has been incorporated in Toronto, with a capital of $S,0OO,O0O. The company purchased tract of twenty acres in the heart of Sault Ste. Marie. Ont, from the city, paying about S25,OOO for it. The erection of the new plant, which will adjoin the Lake Superior Corporations pulp mills will be be- gun in two weeks. The new paper company is also considering the con struction of a water power canal to develop 6O,000 horse power.
 The new plant is believed to be the result of the proposed reciprocity agreement and the promoters and packers are said to be wealthy New York men closely allied with the news papers of the United States. The free exports of manufactured paper to the United States, under the proposed rec iprocity agreement will be a big boon to the manufacturers of Canada, and will result it is thought, in the estab- lishment of many new pulp and paper mills throughout the region in which pulp wood is obtainable.

ROYAL HONORS FOR
 STEINWAY PIANO

The house of steinway have long been the piano makers to the reign ing nlonarchs of England and other principal European countries. and this year it is announced that Steinway & Sons have been reappointed 'tpiano manufacturers to Her Majesty, Queen Mary of England" The news is also just received of the granting of like honor at the court of His Majesty, King Albert of Belgium.
 These announcements will remind some of us of the familiar line "Pur- be seen on so many of the excellent articles imported from England
 At first thought it may occur to many Americans that such notices Savor of snobbery, yet as a matter of fact. they are in general most mod est statements of well deserved com mercial honors. Royalty does not give testimonials, as prominent Americans might do. but royalty has every op- portunity to know what is best in any line of manufac ture-every opportun- ity to test and compare, and no need to consider the price. What more convincing evidence of the superiority of an article could one have than the simple fact that the article in ques- tion had been purchased for the use of royalty?
 Recognizing the influence with the public which the choice of royalty may have, one European court has made it a practice to grant letters of appoint ment in certain lines, as piano mak- ing. only after the article has given satisfaction for a period of three years.
 In view of the meaning thus attach ed to royal appointments, the great ors showered on Steinway & Sons is a most impressive tribute to the Steinway piano.
 To produce a piano which meets the requirements of the average person is one thing. It is quite another to create an instrument which shall com pei practical unanirnity of praise and admiration in all those circles where musical culture reigns and artistic re- finement and accomplishment are inn perative.
 The distinction of the Steinway piano is therefore notable and it's worldwide supremacy tribute to merit Of an extraordinary kind
 Tn addition to winning the broadest success in the commercial world the house of Steinway has achieved su- preme honors in the world of art. and displayed not merely business enter prise but also artistic genius of the highest order. It is gratifying to note that our great American piano has again been awarded the stamp of highest approval abroad through the recent appointments from the courts of England and Belgium
