 Browne Expedition.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH
 sSKAGWAY, Aug. 9.-The discovery of a new pass through the Alaska range, the exploration of sixty miles of country which has been a blank on the map and a verification of the assertion that the ascent of Mount Mckinley can be made along the northern ridge were accomplished by the Parker Browne Mt. Mckinley expedition, which ar rived here late last night
 The expedition is headed by Profess sOr Herschel Parker of New York and Belnore Browne of Tacoma, which left Seward February 20. with ten dogs and travelled 400 miles over rough country to the northeast ridge of the mountain where the ascent of the south peak was begun. An altitude of 20,2O0 feet was reached.
 The most difficult part of the climb was a zone between 12,000 and 17,000 feet altitude" said Browne. Above the 17,000 the work was not difficult. Three of us got within 300 feet of the top and could have made the summit easily within an hour but for a blind ing snowstorm. The top of the noun tain is unbroken and it would not be difficult to surmount it under favor able weather conditions The new country mapped by the expedition is very rough and contains many glaciers.

WOOL TARIFF
 BILL VETOED
President Taft Takes the Ground That It Would Be Destructive of an Indus try; Ready for Other Re vision Bills

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-For the second time within the year the presi- dent today vetoed the bill to revise Schedule M of the wool tariff in the Pavne-Aldrich law He returned the bill. holding that the low rates would bring disaster to a home industry. He appealed to congress, however, not to resign until it had substantially re- duced the unnecessary existing duties" without destroying protection to the wool industry. The wool bill veto will be followed by vetoes of the steel, cotton and likely, the sugar and ex- else bills. The bill imposed an ad valorem duty of 29 per cent on raw wool and 49 per cent on clothes. It passed over Tafts veto. His message was drawn after conferences with Chairman Emery of the tariff com mission and was submitted to the cabinet
 Taft in his veto says: II stand by my pledges to maintain a degree of tariff to protect and offset the diff ference between the cost of produc- tiOn here and abroad. 1 will approve any bill reducing the duties to this level Most rates submitted in the bill are so low that if enacted into a law the result would be an ire trievable injury to the wool growing industry: the enforced idleness of ma chinery, throwing thousands out of employment I strongly desire to re- duce the duties, provided only that the protective system be maintained and the industries now established are not destroyed It appears from the tariff board report and the house and senate bills that a bill may be drawn within the requirements of protection and still offer a reduction of 20 per cent on most Wools and , per cent to 50 per cent on clothes. urge congress not to adjourn without taking advantage of this opportunity. Despite the efforts to discredit the tariff board, their report on this scheme is accepted with scarcely a dissenting voice by those familiar with the problems discussed"

At the Close of an Unevent- full Day Both Sides An nounced That the Last Testimony in the Famous Case Had Been Put In
MAY REACH JURY
 NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT
Wife of Detective Franklin, Self Confessed Briber of Jurors, Was Last Witness But Her Testimony Was Stopped by Objection
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPArcH1


 LOS ANGELES. Aug. 9.-"The peo. pie rest
 The defense rests"
 With this double announcement bv District Attorney Fredericks and Chief Counsel Earl Rogers defense, respect ively. the taking of evidence in the bribery trial of Darrow was brought to conclusion today The final argu- ments to the jury will be begun on Monday morning.
 Mrs. Bert H. Franklin, wife of the former McNamara defense detective who confessed to bribing two jurors, was the last witness called by the state in rebuttal. At the end of her direct examination, the defense announced that there would be no sur-rebuttal. We don't need any, commented Chief Counsel Rogers.
 The prosecution had intended mak- ing a last effort to introduce the much discussed transcript of the conversa- tion between Darrow and John R. Har- rington which had been overheard by means of telephonice device. A rul- ing by Judge Hutton, however, that the defendant could not be impeached upon collateral matters caused the district attorney to abandon the effort. The ruling was made while Mrs. Franklin was on the stand, when the court sus- tained an objection by the defense to a question concerning a conversation between Darrow and Mrs Franklin the day of Franklin's arrest.
 In that conversation the defendant is alleged to have said to Mrs. Frank lin, Don't feel too hard toward me" Darrow denied making such remark on cross examination.
 Except for the testimony today of Judge Walter Bordwell, who presided at the trial of Jomes B. McNamara, be- fore whom the McNamaras entered pleas of guilty, today's proceedings were without sensational features. Judge Bordweil contradicted portion of the testimony of Lincoln Steffens, the magazine writer who was an im- portant witness for the defense. He testified that he met Steffens on sev- eral occasions during the week pre- ceding the continuation of the McNa- mara trial but he denied that he ever discussed the so-called peace negotia- tions with the owner. Steffens he SdlQ, aIIeInpteu tO ldik dDOut d S0ttlo~ ment with him. but he declined to en- CT into any discussion. Other witt nesses appearing today. were called to impeach the testimony of former Fire Commissioner c. O. Hawley.
 After a conference between the at- torneys for both sides and Judge Hut- ton it was decided to allow two and 8 half days for argument by the prose- cution and defense. This agreement assures the case going to the jury not later than next Friday evening. As sistant District Attorney Ford will open for the state on Monday. His argument will probably consume the entire day. The defense has reached no decisions to the order of arguments and Darrow will close, with an argu- ment by Chief Counsel Rogers inter- vening.

The conditions inn posed, however, were more than the district attorney was willing or able to grant. and he is waiting for Becker to make other Overtures
 Strong influences have been exerted the prosecutor has learned, to keep Becker from making disclosures, strengthening the evidence regarding the alleged gambling graft on the part of high police officials whose indict
 ment Whitman seeks.

 his attitude

 in the murder plot by several wit
 nesses, is ready to make a confession
 to corroborate the testimony Of Bald

 nesses who appeared before the grand
 jury yesterday. an eye witness of the

John w Hart, to the house where Jack Rose, then wanted by the police for the murder, was concealed This was the house of Harry Pollock who, with his wife, was one of the witnesses before the grand jury. Bar5 ter told Whitman that Becker and Hart had come to his place Of en- ployment on June r, the day after the murder, and had taken him around to Pollock's house. Hart took him in side, he said, leaving Becker. who then a detective, in the taXicab. Barter says he was wanted to witness an af- fidavit made by Rose that a $15Ot | loan which Rose had said was made through him by Becker to Herman l Rosenthal was in fact made by Harry Pollock This is the affidavit Rose claims Becker forced him to make as I the price of protecting him from ar I rest It was to clear Becker. Rose says, of the charge mace by ROsenthal before he was shot, that the police | lieutenant was partner in Rosenthals l gambling house.
 Stanish, who is an Austrian of edu- cation. testified before the grand jury ! that he stood within a few feet ot 1 Rosenthal when he fell under a fusil- l Jade of bullets. He saw Jack Sulli- ! van, he said, lean over Rosenthars body and say, Hes dead all right,

BRITISH SENTIMENT

LONDON, Aug 9.-Brit1sh shlp- owners are indignant at the action of the American senate with respect to the Panama canal They admit that big trade is waiting to be done as soon as the canal is opened. but they are inclined to think that the great preferential treatment accorded American shipping will lead traders to adhere to the old routes.
 Representatives of prominent firms have expressed an opinion' however, that much might happen before the canal opened and that the protests of foreign powers might induce a change of the American policy.
 The amendment permitting the re- gistration of foreign built vessels as American. it is thought may glve an impetus to British ship building.
 Editorial comments continue to dls- play strong feeling. The Spectator says that the decision is in violation of the clear sense of the Hay Paunce- fote treaty.
