young Hemmick, who is twenty-siX
years old, and little known socially, was
made last March. Mrs. Barney had been
in Paris for some time The progress
of the alliance was duly chronicled from
Paris, at one time the report having
been made that the woman denied that
she would marry Hemmick. Then camc

Policemen to Appear In
New Summer Uniforms

Several changes will be made in the
uniforms of members Of the police
force when the men put on their sum-
mer outfits with the first real warm
weather.
The material which will be used in
the new uniforms is expected to furnish
much better protection in all kinds of
weather than any used heretofore.
Light weight helmets that will shed
water in rainy weather will be provided.
and these will be adorned with silk
cords and acorns instead Of the leather
used In most cities. The SIMMER caps
for the mounted men will be similar to
those worn by members of the New
York police department.
The overcoats next fall will be much
shorter than the old ones, and the
blouses will have five buttons instead
of four. The lining for the summer
blouses will also be much lighter. The
letter ''S'' on the lapels Of the coats
worn by the sergeants will be replaced
with chevrons on the sleeves.

Justifes Historic Remark.
And so through the list of local in
terests which justify the historic re-
mark of General Hancock.
The truth Is that halr the members of
the Senate realize that this tariff ses-
sion, based on the Canadian reciprocity
arrangement puts them face to face
with fights for their political lives. That
is the long and short of the matter.
There never was a time in the memory
Of veterans yet In service, when a more
difficult political situation confronted a
great proportion Of the members of the
Senate. This Is true of the insurgent
Middle West, Of the lumber region Of
the far Northwest, Of the New Eng
landers, and Of the men from the in
dustriai regions of the new South.

and every prospect that feeling will
grow more bitter as the fight is pro-
longed.
The Senate Is going to take plenty OF
time. There will be tons of speeches
for home consumption; for on these
speeches, and their success or failure In
explaining to home constituents. will
depend long array of political futures:
Meanwhile the plan Of an omnibus bill
in the Senate is as good as sure OF
adoption. The regular Republican, in
all negotiations preliminary to the ap-
pointment Of the Republican Commit
tee on Committees, reserved one thing
absolutely. They insisted that under
no conditions would they consent to
such a personnel of the Finance Com
mittee as would give to a combination
of Democrats and insurgent Republic
cans the power to control On this they
have won. The regulars will have clean
control, and an omnibus bill will come
out ..... ....
The Washington times., 1911-04-16

When the House of Representatives
has finished its tariff progran1-has
passed Canadian reciprocity. its free list
bill, and several schedule revision bills
the Senate Committee on Finance Will
throw the whole product to the winds
and proceed on entirely new lines.
The Senate program will be based on
the omnibus bin plan. That is, instead
of bringing out the different House bills
as separate measures, the Finance Com
mittee will take up the entire series
of them, reform them into single
general tariff revision bill. and bring
this before the Senate.
In doing this, the Finance Committee
will produce q situation calculated
greatly to weaken the chance for any
tariff legislation at all to pass.
Strange Mixture of Motives.
A strange mixture Of motives will
account for the Senate's adoption Of
this program. The regular Republican
Senators, Of course. favor the omnibus
plan because it gives opportunity for
that log-rolling which has always been
the determining influence in making tar
ifs. They will be able to trade among
different interests, and groups. and In
dustries; to hold one group in line for
high duties which II does not want, with
the threat that IL reduction Is made at
one point, 1t will have to be carried
throughout the list.
For entirely different reasons, some
of the progressive Senators favor the
or -logrolled to death-then the agricul-
tural States, in which there Is much
disaffection over the Canadian reciproc-
ity deal. They are not willing to vote
for reciprocity unless at the same time
they are certain that they VIII vote
for such measure Of revision In the
farmers interest as will copper the
reciprocity vote. 4.
If they should vote for an ipdepend-
ent reciprocity bill, and 1t should pass,
and If thereafter the rest of the re-
vision program should be shaped up in
an omnibus bill which should be talked
or logrolled to death-than the agricul-
tural State insurgents would have to
brave wrath which some, at least,
might not be able to survive.
Democratic Divergence.
Then there are two elements II Dem
and conservatives
on tariff. Among these the division,
and the divergence of motives, is no
less acute than among the different
stripes of Republicans. Some OF them
represent States in which protection
sentiment has become a factor too i'm
portant to be entirely ignored. 1t is
crystallized about particular interests,
industries and localities. 1t is respons-
ible for the bitter antagonism Of pow
erful lumber interests in Arkansas to
of the lumber duties. 1t ac-
counts for the fact that Senator Clarke
of that State has lately been accounted
a protection Democrat.
This same influence has long made the
Louisiana Senator's frank protectionists
because of sugar. 1t is making itself

THOUSANDS MAKE
BOARDWALK RIOT
Of EASTER COL0RS
Snappy Breeze No Mar
to Annual Prone
naders.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., April l6--
Atlantic City Is having big Easter.
Brilliant sunshine flooded the Board
walk at noon, and brought joy to a
promenading phalanx of over 100000
happy visitors. The aif is chill, with ii
sharp northwest wind, but this detail
Is slight.
Although the resort was admittedly
short In its Easter population last night.
the deficit was made up before noon by
trains running at the shortest intervals
allowed by railway safety rules. Every
trainson steam and electric lines was
made up to the full capacity without
furnishing room for the rush. and long
trains of empties have been whirled
back to Camden and Broad street to be
reloaded.
A collective smile overspread the re-
sort this morning when early rtsers
found the sun out in full force, with
only a few fieecy clouds hanging In the
sky. Bonnets and frocks were hurriedly
unpacked. and early breakfasts In the
big hotel dining rooms were taken In
full boardwalk regalia.
The parade started early. and before 10
o'clock the big Easter promenade was
in fun swing. lacking only late arrivals
and the church-going portion of the
crowd. Every roller chair Of the 1000
or so owned by boardwalk barons was
in use or engaged by willy folk.
In variety and power OF color the
Boardwalk today presents the most
vivid appearance in its history. Hats
of straw shapes that defy descriptive
powers even of experts run riot as to
shade, with wild blues and everything
of red predominating. While many cos
tunes are matched, from hats to shoes
and hose, the greater number appear
to have been picked out by color-blind
modistes or wearers, and make no at
tempt at harmony. Pretty girls in rob-
In blue gowns wear yellow straw hats.
while others have topped OF green
coat suits with scarlet lids trimmed
with pink or yellow straw bows.
Mere man Is something Of non
entity as far as his decorative use Is
The snappy winds which
are being defied by the fair ones have
chased all but the most daring men
into overcoats. and many a bright
hued Easter suit was made to blush
unseen under a topcoat. The wise lads
who invested a portion of their saw
ings In a loudly plaided spring coat
are reaping the reward Of their fore
sight In ability to attract much desired
attention.

wALDRoN IN HIDING
Strange Man Appears at Missing Jur-
or's Homo and Talks With WaIdron's
Wife-eeIieved to Have Carried Mes
sage From Missing Man.

Kansas City, Dec. 13.-That the wife
of Harry w. waldron, who escaped
early Monday. morning from the jury
hearing the evidence in the DR.. d. c.
Hyde case. has had word from the
missing juror rs the belief of the au-
thorities today. The visit of a strange
man, who entered the home of Mrs.
.Waldron last night and held whis-
pered conversation with her. has
aroused snspicion in the minds of the
officers which has dispelled the belief
that Waidron is mentally .deranged or
has killed himself Instead q belief has
formed that he IL alive and hiding.
The stranger was greeted at her
home last night by Mrs. Waldron and
she drew him hurrtedly apart where
they talked Save that she was heard
to call him John no. .inkling of his
identity was conveyedhto the deputies
guarding the house. The woman
would not tell who he was or why he
came silently and cautiously. 1t was
the hope of the officers to locate the
man today and question him as to the
whereabouts Of the escaped juror.
