eral Wickersham said to-day that the
plans for the dissolution OF the National
Packing Company. the so-called beef
trust, az submitted 10 him bv the United
States Attorney. James IL. WikersOH,
and Ralph Crews. counsel for the corpo-
ration appears to he effective. but Inc
would withhold hnal approval pending

tition. which is the aim OF the Depart

nation. lie believed the ultimate scheme
OF dissolution would prove satisfactory

ing Of civil suit would not be neces-
sary.

whose supervision the dissolution Is be-
ing effected.

Make Effort to Force Senate to
Ask Tariff Action.

Washington. July 29-Re jecting the
Senate amendments TO the wool. sugar
land excise tax bills, the Democratic
members OF the Ways and Means Com
mittce assumed to-day an ostensible at
/ titude Of Indifference regarding tariff
legislation for the rest OF the session
Chairman Underwood win report the bills
back tomorrow. but 1t Is the present
plan OF the House leaders to play wait
ing game and force the Senate TO ask for
a conference.
While appearing to deliver an ultima
tum TO the Senate OF Your move next
the House leaders will not overlook any
chances to get one or more tariff bills up
to the President before the end of the
session.
Mr.. Underwood privately admits the
pos bilty OF compromise wool bill, and
the Democrats of the Ways and Means
Committee decided to put through the
House the bill revising the cotton sched-
ule. The Democratic-insurr coalition
in the Senate has renewed hope that the
President may be put I'm a hole" II the
political consprators are able 10 send to
the White House bills of the same nature
as those that Mr.. TAFT was forced to veto
last session.
Republican members Of the Ways and
Means Committee voted to accept the
Senate amendments TO the three bills
mentioned. Mr. Mccall. Of Massachusetts,,
II understood tc have voted present On

LOEB WILL NOT RESIGN
Collector Returns to His Desk
His Post Out of Politics.

Collector Loeb returned to his work at
the Custom House yesterday after a short
vacation, bat though he found the air fun
of rumors about his possible early re-en-
try into politics, he refused to discuss
anything that was even most remotely
connected with the political situation.
From a man. however. who has been
connected quite closely with Mr. Loeb 4
work as Collector, and who is known TO
possess his confidence, The Tribune Ie-
ceived assurances of the most emphatic
kind that there was no foundation at all
TO the rumors about Mr.. Loeb's resgning
his present office and joining the Roo5e-
welt camp.
when Mr.. Loeb was appointed Collec-
tor OF the Port OF New York" this man
said, "he took the office with the under-
standing that the customs would be en-
tirely divorced from politics. His con-
viction was that the chief trouble with
the system. as he found 1t. was that poll
ties and not business received first con-
sideration in the administration Of the
customs, and his success in recognizing
his department was largely due to his
stanch adherence to this conviction
1T is preposterous to assume that Col
lector Loeb, after reorganizing the SER
vice and making his administration a
model for all the other custom houses in
the country. should permit politics TO re-
enter his department again and to undo
his work of over three years.
II know that President Taft has always
supported Mr.. Loeb in all customs mat
tiers, and know positively that the Presi-
dent never suggested in any way that he
expected the Collector to side with him
in the present campaign. Mr. Loeb would
not be disloyal 10 the man who has sup
ported his work, and he would not come
out against ex-President Roosevelt, with
whom he has been most closely associated
for many years.
las to the possibility OF Mr.. Loeb re-
signing the collectorship to return to poll
tics, | can assure you that he does not
contemplate such a step. / know that IL
ne leaves his present post he will enter
into business and not into politics"

PREPARES REPLY TO TAFT
Senator Dixon Promises to Rid
die Defence of denomination.

Referring to the published extracts Of
Mr.. Tafts defence Of the national COM
mittee and the convention contests, Sena-
tor Dixon, chairman of the National Pro-
gressive Committee issued a statement
last night in which he said IN part:
There is 10 doubt in the minds Of the
people OF the state Of Washington thdt
the Roosevelt delegates elected to the ma
tional convention were frHudulenttly ek-
Guided from seats in the convention. MI
Taft has lost the support OF the leading
ueWspape in the state or Washington az
the result Of the national committees ac-
ton in the Washington case.
There is no doubt in Texas that inc
Roosevelt delegates represented the over
whelmng sentiment OF the RcpUpncm
voters Of the State OF Texas, and mat inc
state convention was a regular ConVrn-
ton and that its credentials were unqucs-
tiOnabiy entitled 10 recognition ut the
hands Of the national committee. W."
have the testimony on this point OF surh
journals as The Houston Post which
has not been favorable in any way 10
Mr.. ROOSeVets candidacy, but whose cdl-
tor said only yesterday that even TAFT
Republicans would admit that Wcr"
Roosevelt facing primary election III
Texas to-day he would carry everything
The ARIZONA contest involved all the
delegates from that state, six i'm number.
The Tart defence IN the case OF NIIHuu't
Is a false and shameless thing ana won
bear moments analysis
Il shall SEQ TO it that this mass Of in
accuracy and falsehood put forward In
behalf of Mr. Taft's indcfcnslble record
in connection with his denomination Is
not permitted to deceive the people Of this
country" Senator Dixon said In closing,
"and ] promise now that there will be
issued within a very few days "a state
ment Of the facts in regard TO the Chi
cago contests which will effectually riddle
and expose this sham attempt at the de-
fence Of an indefensible thing"

BUILT SHILS IN WOODS.

In Colonial days the shipping for our
home trade and for sale abroad was built
chiefly In the district of Maine and in
New Hampshire. These two colonies
built rather more than one-half the en-
tire American tonnage In the days imme-
diately preceding the Revolution. Tie
older ports could not compete with the
new settlements amid the timber.
When the great trees mad been cx-
haustcd on the river banks, gangs of
shipwrights went a mile or two into tho
forests, and here, on the uplands, would
build vessel OF 100 tons or more. mount
her on strong sledges OF timber. hitch

WOMEN IN THIRD PARTY
Fair Sex to Go as Delegates to
Chicago Convention.

II seems that Colonel Roosevelt's die
tum in favor of woman suffrage on the
point Of his departure for the Chicago
convention was no idle threat. At least
such is the evident Interpretation Of
William II. Hotchklss. the state chair
man of the Roosevelt party. Mr.. HOtch-
kiss announced yesterday not only that
he had appointed woman 10 the pro-
visonal county committee of his party
but that at the New York County conYen-
ton, to be held at Carnegie Lyceum to-
morrow night, women delegates to chi
cago would be chosen.
This il the first recognition of the Snf-
frage movement by any party in this
state Mr.. Hotchkiss judciously used
the word some" in answer to the ques-
ton how many women delegates the city
Progressives had in mind sending as
their representatives TO the national con-
vention. He smiled when asked If any
women would run on the Roosevelt ticket,
either state or national.
Miss Bertha Rembaugh, a lawyer, is
that member Of the fair sex whom the
chairman has picked TO serve on the pro-
visional county committee. Miss Rem
baugh is a graduate of Bryn Mawr. who
has distinguished herself as the author
Of a book entitled THE Legal Status OF
Women"
Mr. Hotchkiss also appointed yesterday
a law committee, composed entirely or
men, which is to determine to their own
and his satisfaction the status OF the
third party under the Levy law and tho
direct primary law. 1t seems that both
these laws refer to "the parties named in
this act" circumstance which may com
plicate the political situation legally The
committee is, of course, state COM
mittee.
Virgil K Kellogg Of Watertown, was
made the chairman OF this body. The
other members are Jacob i. Hotzmann'
OF Brooklyn; Harold Remington, of NO.
l65 Broadway; Wallace Thayer, OF Buff
falo: cambridge Colby, Of No. III Broad
way; James L. Dawsey. of NO. 10 Cedar
street; Smith OBrlen. Of Albany, ana

WIRELESS LAWS MUST WAIT
Congress Not Yet Ready to Provide
for Government Control.

Washington, July 29.-Governmental
control of wireless telesraphy probably
will not be provided at the present ses-
sion of Congress. The bill OF Represent
alive Alexander OF Missouri. for that
purpose was stricken from the House
calendar to-day.
Representative Mann, minority leader,
objected to present consideration of the
subject. which. he said. was one that re-
qulred more study and deeper considera-
ton before laws Harvesting wireless

for some broad law to give relief from
