Latest Plan Urged by SEN
ate Tariff Committee
Chairman
MEETS WILSON'SVIEWS
Both Raw Material and Finished
Product Included in
List.

Washington, D. c., June S.-Chair
man Simmons of the senate finance
committee, after a conference with
President Wilson today, said he be-
lieved when the tariff bill was ready
for consideration by the democratic
caucus next week cattle wheat, meats
and -four very probably would be on
the free list. Simmons declared after
his talk with the president he expect
ed both the raw material and the fin
ished product TO be free listed. He de-
clined to say whether the change was
made at the instance of the president
or senators.
After the conference the president
and Simmons hurried to the capitol,
where the subcommittee was consid-
ering the agricultural schedule.
"a am going into the meeting to move
to put cattle and wheat on the free
list" said Simmons. Il don't know
what the committee will do about it."
Later it was learned It was the presi-
dent who decided upon the free list
ing of raw materials as well as finish
ed products as the best means OF
equalization, 1t was said while the
subcommittee recommended that fin
! ished products be made dutiabie and
raw materials free was reversed at
/ the White house, 1t was only after
many senators expressed, through
| Simmons, their acquiescence, and the
! decision was left to the president.
| The committee went into executive
session.
ROTION Is FAVORED.
| After the subcommittee heard the
motion - Simmons Senator Williams
said it probably would be acted upon
late today. The prevailing impression
was the committee would vote to meet
the views Of the president and free list
cattle and wheat williams indicated
he was in accord with that view.
Practically without change, wool and
sugar schedules. as they passed the
house are expected to be recommend
ed late this week to the senate finance
committee by senators who have had
them in consideration more than a
month, Democratic leaders say nelth-
er viii be altered by the entire finance
committee and they predict the party
caucus viii not make any change.
Although administration leaders be-
lieve the senate finance committee will
approve the action of the subcommit-
tee, which restored meats and -four to
the dutiable list, many house demo-
Gratis promise a fight for restoration
OF meats and flour to the free list,
should the schedule pass the senate as
approved by the subcommittee. They
viii also make an effort to have cat
tie made free.
Practically the entire time of the
president and cabinet at the regular
session today was given over to a dis
cussion of the recent dissolution of
the so-caIled tobacco trust Since he
took Office Attorney General Mercy
nolds has been conducting preliminary
observations TO determine If the de-
cree of dissolution has been observed
in spirit and if in fact the tobacco
trust still exists.

JAPAN APPROVES
PLAN FOR PEACE

Washington, D. c., June 3.-VisS
count Chinda, the am mbassador from
Japan, yesterday called upon SecTe-
tary Bryan with formal notification
that Japan had accepted in principle
the proposed plan advanced By the
United States for universal peace.
Siguatories of the treaty proposed
in Mr.. Bryan's plan would agree to re-
frain from hostilities for period OF
at east nine months while any con
filcting claims were under consider
alton by an international joint com
mission.
In the case Of Japan, as with the ten
other nationg that have received the
proposal favorably, the response ap-
plies solely to t.2 general principle in
yolyed, and none has committed itself
TO approval OF any Of the details OF the
project.
Therefore it may be many months
before the tentative draft OF the con
vention which Mr.. Bryan submitted 70
the various embassies and legations
can be reduced 10 form which win
receive their unqualified approval.
The statement by the japanese an
bassador has no bearing on the Hego-
tigtions in progress between the two
countries regarding the California
ellen land legislation. During his call
upon Mr.. Bryan yesterday afternoon
( the ambassador discussed this subject,
but without any definite result.
The Japanese foreign Office has not
cabled the ambassador definite in
structions regarding the submission
Of IT'S rejolnder 70 the last American
note.

1T is well known certain interests

perfectly Legitimate. I have seen Mr..

legitimate as far as l know. Ny opin-
ion is lobbying is principally a thing
of the past"

From Logan & Bryan, Now Yorik.-In
our morning letter. IN face OF the foreign
weakness in Canadian Pacific over night,
we said we saw nothing extremely beur-
ish In the American news, and from the
opening or our market today wo have
suggested the danger OF pressing the
short side 1t would now look as II
much of the selling OF yesterday was for
short account. Copper shares showed
better tonc today reports of Increased
demand for the metal There is nothing
bad from Washington and the report pre-
sented yesterday to congress from the
attorney general was prepared prior to
the recent interviews given out by him,
which business men construe as more re-
assuring. With tho present existing
short interest 1t would take but little
especially as the money situation Is i'm
proving as is public sentiment toward
investments.
From Paine Webber G Co. BOSTON,
The selling OF investment stock contin-
ued. but the speculative favorites held

CHRISTMAS DIVIDEND
IS NOT TO Be POSTED
Iron Blossom Directors De-
eide to Pass Up Customary
Holiday Distribution.
MANY EXTRA EXPENSES
Much Dead Work Done,
Taxes to Be Paid and Shaft
to Be Sunk Lower.
MANY EXTRA EXPENSES

There Is TO be no extra holiday divi-
deud for stockholders In the Iron Bios
som mine. according 10 word yesterday
received from Provo, where the offices
Of the company are located. and Prcsi-
dent Jesse Knight sets forth reasons for
passing up the distribution.
II was anticipated by shareholders that
an extra dividend OF cents q share
would be posted before Christmas. and
the announcement OF yesterday came as
a disappointment to many of these How
ever, there appears 10 be ample cause
FOR passing tho special distribution in
the interest OF financial safety.
In November there was q surplus in
the treasury amounting TO SASS,000, which
was 100000 more than the surplus OF a
extra holiday dividend OF cents share
However, at the regular monthly meet
Ing of the board OF directors, which was
held in Provo yesterday morning, the
Jesse Knight that taxes In the sum Of
So. 900 had TO be paid and that lot of
expensive dead work had been done on
the 1900 level Of tho mine. He also
stated that the main shaft was TO be
sunk to a considerably deeper level. en-
failing a lot of additional outlay and
that there would be considerable eX-
penditure necessitated for installing
pumps The pumps, he says. Will be
rendered necessary from the fact that at
about 1000 feet down in the main shaft
some big water courses would be cut
into.
In view OF these facts together with
n desire TO keep the finances of the COM
pany in such position as to enable II to
maintain It's regular quarterly dividend
distribution. while keeping a substantial
working surplus on hand, the directors
decided to make no extra present to
stockholders this year
