KNOX WANTS MORE TARIFF POWER FOR
 THE PRESIDE N I

New York, December 15.-Represen- tative Oscar Underwood, chairman of the ways and means committee, has received rom Secretary of State Knox. a special dispatch to the Herald from Washington says, letter asking for sweeping tariff powers for the Presi- dent to end dlscriminations abroad.
 The letter is dated December 8 and says that in adjusting the tariff and trade relations of the United States with another under terms of the max mum and minimum tariff provided in section numerous instances of tariff and administrative discriminations against the United States were devel- oped. Most of these, it continues, were removed through negotiation but some could not be overcome by this method,
 "Time has developed the desirability of seeking measures for further adjust ment," the letter says and 1t recites that a solution of the problem can be found by an amendment of section 9 whereby will be afforded a degree of elasticity in the imposition by tariff rates suited to the offenses intended for correction. These offenses are not many but their importance, In justice to our commerce and industry, must not be overlooked
 Cases are cited in Belgium, Germany Cthe potash case) and Portugal and varying rates of tariff to the minimum rates, not less than per cent ad val prem, and not exceeding 20 per cent are asked for.
 These rates, the letter says, are to be made applicable by proclamation when the president, after investigation, is satisfied that another nations laws or practices are inimicable to equal op portunity In trade to which American enterprise is fairly entitled.

 FROM UNITED STATES

Washington, December 14.-Declaring absinthe dangerous to health the pure food board of the department of agricul- ture today decided that it's importation into the United States should be prohibit cd after January l, 1912.

 pr. Wiley, head of the chemistry board, declared:
 "Absinthe Is one of the worst enemies of man and if we can keep the people of the United States from becoming slaves to this demon we will do it.'
 Belgium and Switzerland have forbid den the manufacture and sale.

Washington, December H.-J B. Cot ton of Duluth, Minn., today notified the House committee of inquiry Into the United States Steel corporation that he will appear before 1t Monday to refute the charge that while counsel for the Duluth, Messabe and Northern railroad he ordered it's chief engineer to pad" the cost of the road about $5,OOo,oOO in statement to the Minnesota railroad and warehouse commission.
 Charles II. Martz, for many years chief engineer of the road, declared that when the Minnesota commission began an in quirys into freight rates Cotton told him to eXaggerate the cost of the road.

MORE ARRESTS IN
 DYNAM|T|NG CASE
Five Privates Stationed at Fort Riley Arrested on
 Serious Charge

Junction City, Kan, December 4.-F1Ve privates of E battery Sixth field artillery, were arrested at Fort Riley this afternoon in connection with the recent dynamite ex- plosons at the fort which entailed prop erty loses of half a million dollars to the government.
 The names of four of the privates ar- rested were learned through a private source tonight. They are; Hackmere Johnson, Don Northrup Brigham Young and Dory Shaw. The fifth mans name could not be aseertained.
 There was an atmosphere of suppressed excitement about the fort tonight where 1t was rtlruored that several prominent persons were liable to arrest at any time in connection with the charge. It was said that Private Quirks confession writ ten in long hand contained 50 large pages full of sensational charges. From hign army officer the information was secured the QuirlS had confessed following 90 days solitary confinement in the guard house. Up to the time of his confession Quirk had obstinately refused to admit anything regarding the explosion.
 Commissioner Chase thought tonight that the preliminary hearing of the Rev. MT. Brewer, Private Quirk and Mrs. Jor- dan would go over to next week and in- dicatons that there were other arrests in prospect that might defer the hearing until later in the week. The government desires 10 have the hearing of all of the accused held at the same time
 Altus, Okla, December 14.-Rev. Charles M. Brewer, formerly United States army chaplain, accused of complicity in a series of dynamite explosions at Fort Riley, Kan, declares the accusations so far as he is concerned, absolutely absurd. MT. Brewer, who was arrested at his home in Olustee, Okla, yesterday following the confession of Private Michael Quirk at Fotr Riley, Is being detained here await ing the arrival of federal officer who will take him to Kansas.
 T shall nave no trouble in proving an alibi," declared the minister. ''I don't know Private Quirk by name and never heard of him before this matter came up but it Is possible I might recognize the man should 1 see him, as one of the many soldiers with whom I mingled in my capacity as chaplain Nor do I know Mrs Anna Jordan, of Kansas City. never heard of her before To me the accusation came like a thunderbolt out of clear sky

ARE ANGLO-AMERICAN
 ESTATES TAXABLE?

London, December 1.-The question as to whether American estates inherited by persons domiciled in Great Britain but which have never actually been trans ferred to this country, are liable to estate duty, was raised today in the chancel- lor's division of the high justice court The suit arose over the fortune inherited from her brother by the late Consuelo, Duchess of Manchester, who was a daugh- ter of Antonio Yznaga de Nalle of Louis jana and Cuba.
