UNCHECKED BY OWNERS

San Francisco, Nov. 6.-R. p
Schwerin vice president and general
manager of the Pacific Mail Steam
ship company. said before United
States Commissioner Krull that his
company was unable to check the
traffic in opium which federal Off
cials have been seeking to break up
He was examined in connection with
the remission of fines imposed upon
Captain Adrian Seeder. of the steam
er Siberia, and other officers of the
company for having carried opium on
their vessels.
Schwerin said everything possible
was being done to stop the importa-
tion of opium, but that the difficult
ties We're insurmountable. United
States District Attorney John l.. Nc
Nab, who conducted the examination,
pointed out that the customs reports
showed seizures of opium valued at
$S67 since January /, 1911, on Pa
cifiC Mail vessels, and seizures of only
little more than $1,000 worth on
vessels of the Toyo Kaisen Kaisha
Line, in the same period. He said the
decrease in the amount of opium
smuggled on the Japanese boats APP
peared when the company offered re-
wards to its employees for finding
contrahand.

TAFT AGAINST
ADJOURNMENT
At PRESENT
(By United Press Leased Wire.)

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Aug. 8.
In a special message to con-
gress yetoing the wool bill. Pres
ident Taft appealed today to the
legislators not to adjourn with
out taking advantage of the OPP
portunity to substantially reduce
duties" by framing a protective
bill along lines recommended by
the tariff board.
The message says that specific
reason for disappearing the La
Toilette bill is that it was not
drafted from the tariff boards
recommendation and would re-
suit in 'irretrievable injury to
the wool growing industry and
enforce idleness to wool combing
and spinning machinery and to
thousands of looms, and the con-
sequent throwing out of employ
ment of thousands of workmen."
The message says:
Il shall stand by pledges to main
tain the degree of protection
necessary to Offset the cost of pro-
duction here and abroad but will
heartily approve of any bill re-
ducing duties to this level"
The message asserts the tariff
board completely justified the
veto of a similar bill last year,
adding:
"In view of the platform on
which / was elected and my prom
Use to follow and maintain a pro-
lection policy, no other course IS
open to me but to withhold my
approval of this bill. 1 am much
disappointed that such a bill for
the second time should be pre-
scented to me-"
