WOOL 4SNAG" MAY
 BE C|RCUMVENTED

Washington, May 2.-(Special )-Wool, which is holding up the tariff work of the ways and means committee. Is said to- day to be near settlement. The nine members of the committee who favor free wool, among them being Representative Ollie James, are understood to be ready to yield to the proposition of Chairman Underwood and Speaker Clark.
 This is said to be reduction of cents duty 6 cents pound ad valorem. Tho free wool adherents are reported to have refused to agree to the cents reduction unless a sliding scale was granted by this scale. Underwood. Clark and their sup porters would have to agree to reduce the wool tariff 1 cent pound year until in six years, or 1917, it will go on the free list The wool schedule which President Taft in a general defense of the Payne Aldrich hill termed 'indefenslble" has been a stumbling block for the 14 dem- ocrats on ways and means. Brantley of Georgia and Hammond of Minnesota favor the present high protective duty of ii cents pounu or v cenlS at the iedst uH- derwood, Palmer of Pennsylvania and Shackelford of Missouri favor reduc- ton to cents, but are opposed to the nine free listers, who include James, Ram dal of Texas, Kitchin of North Carolina, Hull of Tennessee and Dixon of Indiana. When Mir. Bryan was in Washington he advocated free wool but the wooden manu- lecturers and the growers so protested with Speaker Clark that they impressed him with the seriousness of the step.
 If majority can be secured for this plan 6-cent wool bill will be reported to the democratic caucus with the sliding scale attachment and the caucus will probably instruct the chairman to pass the measure through the House. It will also have a good chance in the Senate. Should this compromise be effected, the first big democratic snag would be safely circumvented

.S.A. R. WILL HOLD ELECTIONS TODAY Vance Makes Speech and Is Thanked "FOr He Did
 Not Say"

| Louisville. May 2-All interest attendant upon the national congress of the Sons of the American Revolution is now cen- tered in the election of officers which vii be held tomorrow The principal topic of discussion tonight concerns the probable successor of William A. Marble of New York, the retiring president-general. pr. Moses Greeley Parker of Massachusetts and Col. I. F. Mack of Ohio are promi- nently mentioned in this connection Both have large followings in the congress.
 Telegrams were received today from Chicago and San Francisco asking the consideration of the executive committee as places for holding the future meet ings. Chicago wants to entertain the del- egates next year and San Francisco re- quests the same privilege in 1915, the year of the Panama exposition in that city.
 A large part of the day was devoted to discussion of the best means of pro- noting increase In membership. Dele gate Hubley of Pennsylvania said that in his state they had found 1t very beneficial to the membership to give sumptuous dinners at which a spirit of good fellow ship always ruled, and which proved so entertaining that it was always late the next morning when they got home. He took occasion, however, to state that they did not have the benefit of mint juleps which had formed such an enjoyable part of the programme in Kentucky.
 Delegate Hart Vance of Illipois then esle,i fa,i tlle privilege of the floor, which vas granted He delivered an address on what he declared to be the duty of the Sons of the American Revolution in edu- eating the sons of sops."
 Recalling the valor of Americas sol diers, MT. Vance grew very eloouent but was continually interrupted by delegates who claimed that they did not exactly understand what he advocated. Finally his dissertation was abruptly ended by Judge James Denton Hancock of Franklin, Pa, who made a point of order and fol- lowed this with motion that MT. Vance be thanked flor what he had not said" The incident was closed with general laughter, MT Vance endeavoring to make 1t understood that he would later condense the idea he wished to convey in a reso- lution.
 A resolution was adopted requesting Congress to make provision for the re- moval of the remains of Gen. Light horse' Harry Lee, which lie buried on Cumberland island, off the coast of Geor- gia, to his native state, Virginia, or to the city of Washington. where they are to be reinterred and monument or mausoleum erected to his memory
 resolution requesting Congress to pro- vide for room in federal buildings where American flags may be held for sale was also adopted.

LOWER BRANCH
 DEBATES TARIFF Way and Means Committee Soon to Begin Work on
 Wool Schedule

Washington, May 2.-Protection and free trade were the themes of today's debate in the House over the demo- cratic bill to put agricultural imple- ments, certain food products and man. ufactured articles on the free list. MT. Tilson of Connecticut said farmers of his state refused to be caught by the name farmers free list bill" on the democratic measure.
 s. w. Smith of Michigan and Burke of South Dakota, republicans, opposed sault upon the doctrine of protection. MT. Catlin of Missouri said it would give firmer foothold In the United States to the growing Japanese trade.
 Byrns and Sims of Tennessee and Lever and Byrnes of South Carolina. all democrats, defended the bill.
 The house committee on ways and means will begin next week to grind out the tariff bill providing for re- vision of the wool schedule. Upon this both the democratic majority and the House and the democratic membership of the committee is divided, but the committee division is not so wide as In the last few weeks
 It Is the policy of Speaker Clark, Majority Leader Underwood and other democratic leaders not to submit to this Congress a bill placing raw wool on the free list. Many democrats want raw wool on the free list. Others be- lieve that the schedule should not be so radically revised at this time. That majority of the democrats on the ways and means committee favored raw wool until feyy days ago there IS no doubt, but majority of democrats could not swing such bill even in committed, nor could a majority of democrats in the House effect the pas sage of such bill.
 Today 1t is reported that of the 14 democrats only seven are standing firmly for free raw wool Originally there were nine. The other seven be- lieve in a gradual reduction of the tariff on raw wool and the plan now year or a tariff of about 6 cents a pound, a cent pound to be cut off each year for five years, at the end of which the commodity would auto matically go on the free list. Such compromise suggestion has met with favor in the minds of many of the democrats and some such arrangement probably will be approved before the bill reaches the House.
 'We do not expect to have the bill ready for several weeks" Chairman Underwood. said today. There will be nothing except statehood before the House until the tariff bill is ready, and 1t is probable that this branch of Congress will be adjourning three days at time."

OHIO SOLONS GET
 NO IMMUNITY BATH

Columbus, O.. May 2.-Ohio legisla- tors who hoped by testifying before the grand jury now investigating brib- cry in the assembly, to escape convic- ton by means of an immunity bath, were disappointed today when Prose- cutting Attorney Turner and Attorney General Hogan refused to accept their testimony. Yesterday other immunity baths were headed off when an investi- gation by a legislative committee was deferred until after the grand jury fin- ished it's work
 Throughout the day the grand jury was in session and among It's witnesses besides detectives who disclosed the al- legged corruption. was Governor Harmon and Judge W. z. Blair of Portsmouth. who conducted the recent campaign which resulted in the disfranchisement Of 1900 voters In Adams county for election frauds. A bill is pending in the assembly to legislate Blair out of his present judicial district and out of place on the bench. Rumors have been current of wrong doing In connec- tion with the measure.
 Detective w. J. Burns was at the courthouse today but did not testify.
 ne BIdUu Jury uliue IlO TepOTt tonight. The house calendar committee, of which Dr. George B. Nye, one of the early cen- tral figures in the reported bribery dis closures, was an active member prac- tically went out of existence today. The republican and democratic floor leaders first declared they would resign from the committee unless pr. Nye and one other quit at once.
 The two threatened members declined, but later all of the seven members save Dr. Nye. turned in their resignations to the house. Then ensued a wrangle as to wether the house was in any way re- sponsible for the personnel of the com mitte. which was named by the speaker. The house adjourned without deciding what action to take on the resignations.
 Representative Greeves introduced bill to make 1t mandatory upon judges to give legislators convicted of bribery a pen itentiary sentence Under the present statutes they can be let off with fines.
 Detective Burns today declared that Ohio assemblymen who, he alleged had been caught in bribery traps, were the biggest and bodest grafters' he had lever run across" He would not predict how many assemblymen would be inter- viewed.

GOVERNMENT SEEKS
 MANEUVER POST

Washington May "A misconception of the purpose of the war department in Investigating the military availability of certain lands near Chattanooga was the explanation today of reported as- sumption in Atlanta that Fort McPher- son was to be abandoned as a military post. AS a matter of fact, the war de- parlment does not contemplate closing that post nor any post located in the vi- cinity of large and important railway cen ters.
 The department has been trying to ob- tain an area in Tennessee suitable for maneuvers on large scale. Citizens of Chattanooga have opened some land and one large tract of 5000 acres in the Ten nessee highlands has been offered as gift to the United States. No permanent structures will be erected on these grounds.

Hong Kong, May 2.-Late dispatches to- day state that the anti-Manchu move ment has spread from the West river, at the west of Canton. to the north and east through Kwang Tung province, and to Annoy. in the southeastern part of Fukien province.
 According to the best information ob- tainabe the foreign missionaries have not been molested by the rebels.
 Services on the Canton Kowloon section of the railway leading from Canton to Hong Kong has been abandoned and the British railway officials have been or dered to come to this city tonight. Yes ses are making frequent trips between Hong Kong and Canton and bringing refugees here.
 Details of the fighting at Canton con- firmed earlier reports of the ferocity with which the troops and rebels engaged Quequeless heads and hairless bodies in European dress are still exposed in the streets, Other bodies show that death was caus~i by strangulation. The ab- sence O. aueques together with the cloth ing of western fashion makes it plain that the dead were rebels. The bodies of the soldiers killed appear to have been re- moved.

TENTATIVE DRAFTS
 OF NGLO-AMERICAN TREATY

the present idea. that when disputes arise between the United States and Great Britain they be submitted to an ar bitraton court for settlement. In the opinion of the President and his advisers it is natural that the Senate here or parliament or British foreign office should be concerned in arranging the details for the settlement of each dispute.
 So far no agreement has been reached among the framers of tine treaty here as to how the proposed arbitral court shall be constituted. One proposal is that the question at issue be submitted, as 1ey arise, to The Hague tribunal. Anotf is that as each question comes up e94 rt be constituted by the agreement of b I governments to settle that question aloae.
 The President is of the opinion that Great Britain will not frame a separate proposition, but will await the submis- sion Of the one drawn up here. The President told his visitors that he did not know how long the treaty would run.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-05-03

Washington, May 2.-Several tentative drafts of the proposed arbitration treaty between the United States and Great Britain were discussed by President Taft and his cabinet today. Following the cabinet session Secretary Knox and of ficials of the state department discussed the details and phraseology, but tonight the President told callers that no draft had been accepted as final and that 1t might be weeks before the treaty could be submitted to the Senate or to Great Britain for ratification.
 Some difficulties in framing the treaty have disappeared. according to the White House view tonight The criticism of English newspapers that the United States Senate must be consulted before disputes could be arbitrated was hardly a valid objection, the President thought.
 The treaty probably will be general in character. It will provide. according to

PRESTON MAYOR
 OF BALTIMORE

Baltimore, May 2.-After one of the most closely contested elections on record in Baltimore James H. Preston, demo- crat, has been chosen mayor of Baltimore for the next four years over former Mayor E. Clay Timanus, republican.
 Until almost the end of the count tonight the result was In doubt and 1t took over three-fourths of the city's vote to indicate who had won. Even on fig ures it Is impossible to say accurately what the winners majority will be but it is now estimated it will not exceed 800.
 The democrats have carried majority of the members of the first branch of the city council and have apparently elected all their candidates for the sec ond branch with the exception of the two in the Fourth district which the re- publicans carried.
 No doubt exists that all three of the proposed loans have carried and the com ing administration is assured of authori- ty to expend s10.0o000O additional on sew CTS, $5,00O,0O0 on paving and $,5O0,D0 on paving in the annex.
