ARE PREP AIRED

Washington, Aug. 12.-some tariff
statistics which President Taft's
friends are to use in the coming cam
peign in his defense Of the Payne-Al-
drich tariff law have just been COM
piled by the bureau Of statistics.
Up to June 80, the end Of the fiscal
year, the Payne law had been in op-
Grafton just 80 months, which happens
to be the total period Of the operation
of the Wilson law. The figures show
that whereas merchandise to the value
of thirty millions of dollars came in
absolutely duty free under the Wilson
law, sixty-seven and seven-tenths mil
lions is the total for the Payne low in
the same period.
The per cent of lmportations that
came in free under the Wilson act was
4S.S under the Payne, 51.2 The av-
erage rate of ad valorem duty under
the Payne law is 41,2, under the VIII
son 42.S. The average amount of rev.
enue from customs receipts per month
under the Payne law has been 265
Under the Wilson law 1t was 1879.

AN INTERESTING
DESCRIPTION OF
CARRARA MARBLE

Washington, Aug. 12.-An interest
ing description Of the world-famous
Carrara marble Of Italy Is given In a
report by Consular Agent Felix A.
Delmas, who is stationed at Carrara
What he says on the subject Of wages
however, gives no reason for congrat-
ulatlon to the poorly paid employees
who have to do with Carrara marble.
Delmas says the daily wages, which
have been slightly increased within
the last few years, are, quarrymen, 45
cents to $1,9S; mill operators, 45 cents
to $1.15; marble cutters, SS cents to
Sc cents; studio workers and sculp-
tors, 45 cents to $2.91, and boys 10 to
3S cents
Contrary TO general belief" Del
mas reports, "the Carrara mountains,
or Apuan Alps are not composed en-
tlrely of marble, although deposits
occur in sections parallel with the
coast for 40 miles. The jagged, rough,
precipitous character of the Apuan
Alps and the peculiar geologic form
alton Of the deposits, which can be
expressively llkened to a torturous,
broken, puzzle, difficult of access, ac-
count in great measure for the
slow and unique manner in which the
Carrara industry has developed as
compared with the marble industry In
America.
with no other tools than sledge
and wedge the Etruscans two or three
centuries before the Christian era
split the marble from the low, out
cropping strata by main force. They
we're followed by the Romans, who
continued the industry lntermittently
until the fall Of their empire. After
that the quarries were probably for
gotten. For centuries, so far as Is
known no marble was quarrled. Will
the religious awakening and ferver o.
the eleventh and twelfth centuries {
great demand for marble was created

of the fifteenth century, gave the in
