HOUSE PASSES TARIFF BILL
Democrats Clinch Victory by Vote
of PSI to 139.

Washington, D. C.-The Underwood
tariff bill, proclaimed by the Demo
cratic party as the answer to its plat
form pledge to reduce the tariff, was
passed by the house late Thursday.
The vote was 281 to 1879, five Dem
ocrats voting against the bill and two
Republicans for it. Four Progress
sives supported the measure and IA
opposed it, while one Independent Pro-
gressive joined with the majority.
When Speaker Clark announced a
vote in loud tones that revealed his
satisfaction, exuberant Democrats
here started stuffed Democratic dom
key over the heads of their colleagues
in the rear of the chamber, q faint
ripple of applause followed and the
gavel fell on the first chapter in the
history of President Wilson's extra
ordinary session of congress.
With the bill on it's way to the SEN
ate, there was a rush of representa-
tives to their homes.
Adjournment will be taken in the
house three days at time until June
Republicans and Progressives, led
respectively by Representatives Mann
and Murdoch, protested to the last
against the measure.

Wireless ''Kick" Ignored.

Seattle, Wash. THE Marconi COM
pany, which insists that its regular
wireless service is being maintained
on sea and shore, is ignoring all COM
plants made to the effect that no mes
sages are obtainable from ships after
they leave port. According to the
strike leaders, Is more wireless oper-
ators struck Wednesday, among them
operators on the steamship City Of Sc
attic, Jefferson, Curacao, Pennsylvan-
ia, Yosemite, ]. A. Hopper, Paradise,
George w. Elder, Beaver and Carlos.
Stewards on steamships are reported
to have declined to furnish food to
strikebreakers, and the engineers, it
is alleged, do not supply electric cur
rent for the wireless instruments.
Operators are being taken off tugs and
freight boats to supply passenger YES
sells, the strikers say.
The steamship companies, with Off
ces here, are unable to furnish patrons
with news of the movements of boats.

HAY AND GRAIN MEN MERGE
Farmers Form Stock Company to
Cut Out Middleman.

Seattle "A delegation of Washing
ton hay and grain farmers assembled
at the Arlington hotel to complete
plans for the organization and incor-
poration of a gigantic cooperative
stock company of Washington far
mers.
Nearly 500 hay and grain raisers
are already committed to the plan.
The scope and detail of organization,
it is expected, will be perfected soon
and steps will be taken Immediately to
unite and centralize in one institution
all of the grain and forage growing
agriculturalists of the state.
The purpose is to do away, as far as
possible, with the milddeman and the
costly and unnecessary machinery of
business that now exists between the
producer and the consumer of hay and
grain. The farmers interested
they are of every agricultural county
in Washington-believe that the plan
now under way the producer will come
nearer to getting the true value of his
produce and the consumer will be able
to buy much more cheaply than under
the prevailing conditions.

FORM NEW SELLING AGENCY
Another Cooperative Organization
Planned by Farmers.

Wenatchee- That another co-opera-
tive fruit selling organization is to be
formed in this valley is indicated by q
statement authorized by Conrad Rose
after a conference with him Of num-
Der of large growers. The plans of
this new selling organization embody
the taking over by the growers of the
plant of the Wenatchee Produce COM
pany.
at the present time the Wenatchee
Produce company is incorporated with
500 shares at the par value of $3.50.
Before the plans for the cooperative
selling concern are worked out an ap-
praisement will be taken of the plant
and stock and it is possible that in
lieu of the plan suggested by Mr.. Rose
there will be corporation formed to
take over the Wenatchee Produce COM
pany, retaining Mr.. Rose as manager.
This is the plan suggested to the
Wenatchee Valley Fruit Growers
association which was rejected re-
Gently.

GET NEW ASSEMBLING RATE
Great Northern Lowers Fruit
Charges at Wenatchee.

Wenatchee-A new assembling rate
to apply in the Wenatchee valley has
been announced from the local Office of
the Great Northern railway. It will
be a great boon to large assembling
agencies such as the Wenatchee Pro-
duce company, the association, the
union, the Wenatchee-C Columbia COM
pany and others. Hitherto hardship
has been felt, especially when soft
fruit half CARROTS was to be assembled
from Malaga, Cashmere and Monitor,
and brought to Wenatchee for final
shipment. The minimum weight per-
mitted on special rate was $4,000
pounds. By the new schedule the
minimum of soft fruit is to be 5000
pounds and a minimum of 10000
pounds for apples. The rate on soft
fruit is to be cut from first class to
third class; on apples from third to
fifth class. This means that fruit can
be assembled from outlying districts
in less amounts and at lower rates.

sUFFRAGETTEs FIRE CHURCH
Vicar of Edifce Ascribes Burning
to CHOSE Lovely Ladies'"

London-While the members of the
house of commons were entering par
lament to discuss the woman suffrage
bill, newsboys thrust "extras" at
them announcing what seems to be
the most destructive work the militant
suffragettes have yet accomplished
St. Catharine's church, at Hatcham,
in the southeast of London, one of the
finest church edifices in the suburbs,
caught fire soon after noon in a mys-
terious way and was destroyed. The
vicar, Rev. Howard Truscott, when
asked about the cause of the fire, said !:
81 cannot ascribe it to another than
those delightful ladies'"
The vicar visited the church at noon,
when he noticed three women in the
building. He supposed them to be
praying. He now believes that they
arranged the fire and thinks explosives
must have been used to aid in the de-
structive work.
A mysterious attempt to explode a
bomb was made early Wednesday
morning outside the Grand hotel, OPP
posite Trafalgar square, where suffra-
gette disturbances took place Sunday.
The hotel was crowded with American
tourists. A policeman saw a woman
deposit a can with lighted fuse in
front of the door. He abandoned the
bomb after extinguishing it by tramp
ing on the fuse, and then pursued the
women.
He caught one woman whom he sup
posed to be the culprit. Investigation
proved her to be a night prowler who
had often been in police court.

CARRANZA TO HANG HUERTA
COnstitutiOnalist Leader Declares
He Will Capture Capital.

Washington, D. CA condition Of
affairs has developed in Mexico as
result of the revolt against the gov.
eminent of President Huerta, which is
causing the Wilson administrator
deep concern.
It is not too much to say that off.
Gals here fear a repetition of the
bloody scenes in the Mexican capital
which resulted in assassination Of
President Madero and his brother and
Vice President Suarez.
General Carranza, leader of the 50.
called Constitutional party, has openg
declared that upon his capture #
Mexico City he will hang the following
Mexican officials: General Huers
president of the republic; Genera
Felix Diaz, nephew Of the former die
tator, Poririo Diaz; General Blan
quet, who aided in the downfall Of
Madero; General Mondragon, one Of
Huerta's lieutenants; General Garcia
Granados, who was minister Of the
interior for short time under Huerta;
General Rodolfo Reyes, Huerta sup
porter; Francisco de la Barra, minis
ter of foreign affairs under Huerta.
All of these men, according to Car
rama, participated in the CONSPIRACY
which resulted in the assassination Of
Madero. They will be treated with
the same scant mercy that was accord
ed to Madero. Other officers now
with Huerta will not be molested, pro-
viding it is shown that they did not
personally participate in the plot
against the life Of the deposed presl'
dent.
The important question is: Can
Carranza and his allies "make good!
They believe they can, and thelr
operations up to date indicate they
have an excellent chance of success.
President Huerta has 10000 men ID
the Mexican capital. He has no mon
ey save that which he receives in tne
way of customs receipts from Carr
bean Sea and Pacific Coast ports
Comparatively nothing is crossing !ns
border from Texas. The revolution
has reduced the buying capacity OF 1N
Mexicans, so that imports have fallen
off.

ENGLAND FEARS MILITANTS
ROYAL Residence and Public Build
inps Closed for Season.

Iondon-The mystery of the bomb
found in St. Paul's and other buildings
has not been solved, nor has anything
been discovered that would tend TO
throw light on it. The suffragettes
neither admit nor deny their response
bility.
Miss Tyson, presiding at a suffrag-
cite meeting in the Helborn town hall,
while remarking that it had not been
proved that suffragettes had put the
bomb in the cathedral, added that
there still were persons who had not
hoard whv the women wanted the vote
and the only way to wake them up was
by bombs. ~
Much indignation prevails among all
classes of society that during the COM
inc holiday period Windsor Castle viii
be wholly or partially closed, together
with the Tower of London, the British
and other museums, cathedrals and
public buildings, owing to the fear OF
a suffragette outrage.
Scotland Yard published figures es-
timating the damage to property by
suffragettes in the past three months
at S.. 0OO, 900, and figuring that, in
Guiding the cost Of protecting lives
and property, militancy is inf1icting a
total cost of $25, 1000, 900 a year on
Great Britain.
That a campaign of even greater
violence is impending is the general
hol;of Votes for Women. the woman
suffrage newspaper, edited by Mr.. and
Mrs. Pethick Lawrence, says:
"We see before the country a
period of disorder such as has not been
known for decades, perhaps for CEN
turtles. We see a prospect of violence
being answered by violence in a terri
BILE crescendo. We foresee the likeli-
hood of crimes being sympathized
with if not condoned and approved by
many of the most respected law-abid-
ing members of the community"
Another bomb outrage was attempt
ed at Tottenham, in the northeast OF
London. The bomb was discovered
before it had time to explode. 1t was
found by caretaker outside the door
of shop.
The authorities have secured evil
dence that many former constitutional
suffragists also have joined the mill
tant body since the defeat of the wo-
man suffrage bill. There is no ques-
ton that the number of militants is
growing.

To Have Market at PascO.

to open public market early in June.
The backward season makes it unwise
to open earlier. Another meeting

complete details. ]. E. Doughty and
A. F. Wehe will report plans then.
The chamber Of commerce will at
tempt to devise ways and means for

PLANNING WILD WEST SHOW
Carloads of Long-Horn Steers and
Bucking Br0nchOs.

Toppenish - The Indian FAR ano
Roundup company which promoted the
first roundup at Toppenish last year.
has consolidated with the Stampede
company, recently incorporated Tor
s25, 900 by Burt Parton Of this place.
and the two organizations held a meet
ing here for the purpose of perfecting
nlans for the roundup, which will be
held in Toppenish this yesr September
l to z, inclusive.
There will be given $4,000 in prizes
this wear, and the association hopes
to have the best riders from all sec
tions of the country here to partlcl-
pate.
Mr.. Parton left this week for Mon
tana. where he will purchase several
carloads of Texas long horn steers to
be used in bulldogging and roping, and
the company already has purchased
several bucking horses, and will pur-
chase more. Among the horses is
Handsome Harry, which has the dis
tinction of being the only horse at the
Roundup last year which was not sue
cessfully ridden. This horse threw
every rider that attempted to ride him
at the fair here last year, including
Jason Stanley, the champion rider OF
the country, who carried away all the
prizes at the Pendleton, Ore, roundup.
Work has already started on the
fair grounds, and the fair this year
will be the biggest ever held in Top
penish. The company has set aside
$500 for publicity purposes.

Fruit Prospects Are Good.

Walla Walla-With the passing of
the frost season the outlook for fruit
crop in the Walla Walla valley is ex-
ceptionally fine, declares District In
spector Whitney. Killing frosts at
this season are unlikely, Mr. Whiteny
says.
The frosts of the last week did prac-
tically no damage except to some Of
the berries and smaller fruits. The
tree fruits escaped. Around Dayton,
where the frost was heavier, the fruit
was not so far advanced.
cit is now time to spray for codling
moth" says Mr.. Whitney. "Watch
the apple blossoms and whenever
about two-thirds of the petals have
fallen off apply the spray. When the
blossoms come out irregularly they
should have double spray, the second
application about week or ten days
after the first. This will catch the
later blossoms about right.
cline, sulphur and oil sprays for
the San Jose scale were thoroughly
used in the valley this spring."

WOMAN SUFFRAGE DEFEATED
Militant Acts Injure Cause Of Eng
lish Women.

/, Inndon-The fate of the woman's
suffrage bill was sealed Wednesday BY
the votes Of more than 80 Irish Ma
tionalists, who voted against it. The
hill. which sought to enfranchise
6 600. COO women, was rejected by 9
majority Of AZ. The vote stood 266
to 219.
Whether there is any chance that
the present parliament will pass bill
of more limited character may be
doubted.
Possibly the Nationalists fear that
if they allow q woman's franchise bill
to pass the second reading it will lead
to a parliamentary struggle which
would not unlikely end in dissolution
of parliament before the Home Rule
bill becomes law.
Furthermore the debate proved that
the militant policy Of the suffragists
has done the cause great harm, as far
as parliament is concerned. The con-
Citation bill of last session was re-
jected by only small majority com
pared with the Dickinson bill, which
was under discussion and previous
bills, giving some measure of enfran-
chisement to women, have passed the
second reading, although they never
survived subsequent stages.
Recent police court disclosures OF
acts of incendiarism planned by the
militants far surprising in magnitude
anything heretofore attempted, and
the burning of st. GATHERINGS church
at Hatcham, undoubtedly influenced
many members to vote against the
bill.

Governor Lister to Talk.

Centralia - That interest in the

Washington Development association

Governor Lister has not announced
the subject of his address, but he has

Orderes 400 Cars of Apples.

Wenatchee - That E. Wagner, the
grower fruit buyer, who for several
years has been making large ship
ments of apples to Australian mar
kets, does not anticipate low prices
for fruit next year is indicated by an
order placed with the Wenatchee Pro-
duce company and the Wenatchee Val
ley Fruit Growers association for
ESQ, 1000 boxes, or 400 carloads, of red
apples at uniform price of 81 a box.
Mr.. Wagner left for San Francisco
with the object of definitely closing a
contract for the sale of these apples
to Australian dealers.
Mr.. Wagner's conditions for the
purchase of the apples are that they
be red, well packed, ranging in size
from SO down to 200, and of any vari-
ETY., the delivery to be made in
Wenatchee between September l and
October 81.

not expected that the conference will
reassemble before May 20. In the
