WASHINGTON.

President Taft declared his determi-
nation to veto the reciprocity bill if
the same is amended.
Republican opposition to the Cana
dian reciprocity bill in the Senate has
reached the stage of open revolt.
President Taft has nominated
Charles B. T. Moore, commandant OF
the San Francisco naval training sta
ton, as a rear admiral.
President Taft, in message trans
mitted to Congress-, arraigned the
manufacturers of what he denounced
dangerous drug frauds" and urged
Congress to amend at this session the
pure food and drug law to strengthen
that act in vital points of weakness,
recently pointed out by decisions of
the United States Supreme Court.
Inquiry into the relationship be-
tween the Mormon church and the
American Sugar Refining Company
before the House committee of inquiry
into the sugar trust, disclosed that
Henry o. Havemeyer's first dealings
in the beet sugar industry were with
the Utan sugar Company, Ill WHICH
the church of Jesus Christ of Latter
Day Saints was interested.
The House Of Representatives by a
vote of 221 to 100 passed the Under
wood wool tariff revision bill provid-
ing for reduction of duty on wool
and manufactures of wool.
Undoubtedly the Root amendment
to the wood pulp and paper schedule
of the Canadian reciprocity bill which
the administration has been fighting
as fatal to the agreement, will be de-
feated In the Senate.
A final tabulation of the bids for the
$50, 900, 900 issue of the 8 per cent Pan
