tive proposal to provide for tariff wal
schedules applicable to the United
states at the expiration of the Russo
American treaty of commerce and
navigation Of 1882. has been intro.
duced into the duma by ex-President
Guichkoff and other signers repre-.
senting the Octoberist and the Nation.
alist parties which control a majority
of. the duma. The bill proposes to
raise the existing Russian duties 100
per cent. and also proposes to impose
a duty Of 100 per cent on articles
which are admitted free under the
present Russian tariff. Besides these
tmpositions, the bill proposes to levy
the double gross weight tax estab.
lished by the law of June 81. 1901,
on merchandise arriving by sea, and
levy double tonnage tax.
should the present American tom
mage tax be raised to injure Russian
vessels then the Russian tonnage tax
will be correspondingly increased.
1t is said the schedules are to be
applicable to all countries which do
not grant Russia the most favored
navigation. The proposal is to be
submitted to the financial commits
sion. The necessity for the proposed
legislation is explained in an accom-
psnying declaration in which it ia
stated the regular American tariff
schedules which will be applicable to
Russian goods at the expiration of the
treaty Of commerce and navigation of
1889. will be SO high as to have a
prohihitive character and that they
greatly exceed the Russian normal
tariff and navigation taxes which

directly or indirectly in any shape.
way or form. asked Mr.. Hartman or
anybody else to contribute 4 dollar
to aid in my election. Moreover. on
the. only occasion OH which Mr.. Har-
riman ever spoke to me on the subject
at all. he did SO of IFS own initiative:
and so far from there being any re-
quest from me to him. he made to
me the request that I would aid him
in getting the national committee to
contribute some of Its funds for the
campaign expenses Of Mr.. Higgins,
the candidate for governor in New
York state.
HE at that time stated to me that
my own election was assured. that the
election of MIR. Higgins. In which he
was especially interested. was doubt
full, and that he earnestly hoped that
the national committee would divert
some of its funds from the national
to the state campaign, where the need
was great and where he believed the
election Of Mr.. Higgins to be in jeo-
pardy. AS shown in your letter. this
was precisely what the national COM
mittee did.
"Very truly yours.
Theodore Roosevelt"
