Begins Real Work on tho
Revision Of the Tariff.
Finds Many Who Favor Sched-
uIe by Schedule Plan.
Increasing Difficulty In Filling I'm.
poriant Diplomatic Posts.

Washington, March s. Pre- sident
Wilson started work. in earnest, Mon
night, on what he considers the fore
most task OF his adminisfratlon--re-
vision of the tariff. He had a long
conference at the White House with
Req. Oscar w. Underwood tile Demo-
cratic majority leader, and canvassed
not only the details of the tariff bill
drawn by the House ways and means
committee, but gave consideration also
to the strategy necessary to pass tar
If questions speedily through the
houses of Congress.
The question admittedly uppermost
IN the minds Of members of Congress
is whether the tariff should be revised
schedule b. schedule, or in a single
tariff bill. The party caucus will de-
eide the issue but the wishes of the
President are being consulted.
The idea of coming to AN agreement on
a single measure carrying with It the
weight of the administrations approval.
has appealed strongly to the President,
because it suggested more expeditions
action and the possibility OF legislation
on currency and other questionsc before
the adjournment of the extra session.
renewed that sectional interests might
bring about enough OBJECTIONS among the
Democrats in the Senate to defeat the
measure there. 1t has been urged that
the schedule by schedule plan Republic
can votes can be enlisted OH those
schedules, wherein there are Democratic
loses To pass them without difficulty
though not as quickly While Rep. In
Nj # tat -
favor the single tariff bill idea, it Is
known that other Democratic leaders In
the House and members of the ways
and means committee hold the opposite
view and have hoped to convert Mr.. I'm
derwood to their way of thinking
The President discussed the tariff,
Monday, with Senators Gore Of Okla
homa and Hughes of New Jersey both
of whom favor the schedule by sched-
ule process.
Senator Gore also talked with the
President about his failure to secure
men of ability with sufficient means
to enable them to accept diplomatic
positions. The Senator suggested that
perhaps Congress might be able to APP
propriate money to support embassies
and legation.
The President displayed much in
terest in a possible solution of the
question Besides the official an
nouncement that Charles w. Eliot haF
declined the ambassadorshlp to Great
Britain, there was no definite word as
to probable diplomatic appointments.
Secretary Tumulty declared that
while the President had "a number of
men under consideration only a few
had been tentatively decided upon for
specific posts.
Former Senator Gardner of Maine
was a White House caller He said that
q week ago he had been offered the cob
lectorsllip of the port of Portland. Me-,
and that he would accept the appoint
ment. White House officials, however,
refused to confirm or deny this.
The President shook hands with the
members of the Princeton baseball
team, expressing regret that he could
not attend their game with George
town, today.

some Of his critics are inclined 10 think
he has rather outstripped it. Hence this
demand for his determination.
The indictment against him Is formd-

weed seeds and feeding on insects that
play n useful part in agriculture. He has
been found guilty of destroying fruit.

sentence upon him and solicits national
aid in discriminating him. There are nos
