Rejoicing that our way would now be

lake, on July 16 of this year, is sched-
uled to be called for trial next Mon
day at Goshen, N. Y, in the county
court of Orange county. The trial
promises to be of unusual interest
and full of sensational incidents and
unexpected developments and 1t is
the general belief among lawyers that
the Gibson case may become another

features of the two cases which

WASHINGTON, Nov CLERKS Of
the house ways and means committee
are already at work on tariff revision
bills for the special session OF con.

Democratic leaders nave been con-
fideht for some time that the incoming
administration would force the tariff
issue to an immediate trial. and much
of the detail work of preparing bills is
under way.
While Wilson Is resting at Bermuda
during the next few weeks, democrats
of the two houses will erdeavor to set
tie on general program to be follow
ed at the extra session. 1t has not
been determined whether one general
bill will be introduced embracing the
wool, cotton, iron and steel revisiOns
which the democratic house has pre-
viOusly passed. or whether each OF
these tariff schedules will again be
brought UP in the form of separate
bill.
Little time will be necessary, It Is
believed, to perfect the wool, cotton,

this situation is puzzling managers of
the party in both houses. The house
free sugar bill passed at the last ses-
sion did not meet the approval of the
democrats in the senate, and 1T still

two houses. Wilson's determination
to call an extra session perfects the
record of practically continuous work
upon the tariff since the special ses-
sion called by President Taft in 1909.
