ONLY ONE SURVIVOR
OF WRECKED STEAMER

HALIFAX, N s., July 2s.-The
steamer John Irwin struck a rock and
sank off Beaver harbor last Tuesday
morning William Mcleod of Halifax
was washed ashore on a hatch at Lis
comb, ninety miles east of here, and
is believed TO be the only survivor
Of the dozen or more men In the
steamers crew
The Irwin, coal laden, left Port
Merton, C. B., for Halifax Monday
morning That night terrific storm
swept the Cape Breton coast. No
word Of the steamer was received until
early today, when Mrs. Mcleod, the
mother Of the survivor of the wreck,
received message from her son, say

however, gave no intimation that there
had been a disaster and there was hope
that the Irwin had put into Liscomb
for safety. This hope, however, was
dispelled later when news of the wreck
came from other sources.

PLAN Of NEWLAVDS
TO REVISE TARIFF
Nevada Senator Believes Much
Time and Effort Is Be-
ing Wasted.

WASHINGTON, July 2S.-Comment~
ing on the waste of time and effort on
the part of the congress in revising the
tariff schedules, Senator Newlands OF
Nevada today urged on the senate. his
amendment to the free list bill for an
automatic reduction of prohlbltory
duties which would gradually bring
them to a revenue basis.
His contention was that general
clause should be put in the law provld-
ing tlat whenever ii appears that the
importations of any dutiable articles
have been, for year preceding, less
than one-tenth of the total domestic
production of similar articles, the duty
shall be reduced at the rate Of 10 per
cent per annum until the importations
shall equal one tenth of domestic pro
duction, the reduction then TO cease and
the matter be referred to congress for
further action.
Prohibitory Duties.
Mr.. Newlands urged that by this
method reduction of the excessive
and prohibitory duties Of the tariff
would be accomplished without inviting
a food of foreign importations and
without disturbing American indus
tries. He claimed that large proper.
tion of the duties of the existing tariff
were prohibitory and were not reve-
nue. duties.
"The duties of congress and its com
mittees in the revision of the tariff, ~
Mr.. Newlands said, "would thus be
very much lightened and the work of
mere computation would be thrown
upon the tariff board, which ascertains
the facts upon the existence of which
the tariff reduction would be based, In
this way a reduction can be accom-
plished which will excite no alarm. as
the law itself will provide. a safety
brake and stop the reduction when
ever the importations exceed certain
percentage.
"Such an amendment would not be
recognition of the principle of pro-
lection by Democrats. II they concurred
in it; it would simply be recognition
of the fact of protection, and would
provide for a gradual change and re-
duction TO revenue basis without eco
nomic readiustment.
Gradual Reductions.
"Our industries are on stills as the
result of the high tariff, 1t is not wise
at one blow TO knock the stills from
under them. Just as it would not be
wise for man who had climbed high
steeple and desired to come down TO
earth to jump down instead of climb
ing down. An automatic reduction Of
10 per cent a year would accomplish
almost everything that is desired in the
way of gradually establishing a reve.
nue. tariff
