Railroads Hope to Complete
Their Story To. night.

a. b. Garretson. president OF the Order
Of Railway Conductors, testifying yester-
day at the hearing in the Hotel Manhat-
tan, made the statement that this arbitra-

men, w G. Lee, president of the Brother
hood Of Railroad FiIemen, said the same
thing
The settlements made with the Eastern
roads on behalf Of the trainmen in 1870
Garretson said were less than one-third
Of what the men wanted and still want.
He said he and Lee had hard time
toning down the mems demands, but the
rank and file were not satisfied. The
only way TO quiet them, he said. was to
kill them.
Garretsons testimony closed the case
for the employees, and Henry Chambers,
supervisor Of wage schedules OF the New
York Central, took the stand in rebuttal.
He submitted number of blue prints.
The arbitrators will hold night session
tonight and try to complete their side OF

Merchants Association Com
mittee Opposes Features.

With a request for certain notifications
the Merchants Association Committee on
Banking and Currency reported yesterday
in favor of the Owen-Glass currency bill.
The committee opposes the provision IN
the bill which says that federal reserve
notes authorized shall be obligations Of
the United States, on the ground that
government guaranty is unnecessary and
might prove disadvantageous and dan
gerous.
OF the provision that the Federal Re
serve Board be empowered to permit or
require. in time of emergency federal
reserve banks to rediscount the discount
ed prime paper of other federal reserve
banks" the committee says:
we are opposed 10 this requirement
IT is open TO many grave objections. IL
is unfair to the depositors OF local banks
to compel the transfer of their funds TO
other sections of the country without the
consent Of the banks selected by them as
the trustees for their deposits"
While any national bank is author
lied by Section "a TO accept drafts or bills
Of exchange says the committee, based
upon import or export transactions, no
provision is made for the acceptance of

tions, to accept domestic as well as for

UNDERWOOD BLOCKS
PRESIDENTS SCHEME
Declines to Aid Repeal of 5 Per
Cent Rebate on Goods in
American Ships.
LIKES LAW AS IT PASSED
Wilson Advised That Enforce
ment of Clause Will Affect
Many Treaties and Greatly
Reduce Revenue.
From The Tribune Bureau.1

Washington, Oct. 9.-The purpose OF the
administration to procure as quietly as
possible the repeal Of that section or the
tariff bill which grants a per cent con-
cession of the duties on goods imported in
American bottoms received a check to-
day. when the solicitor of the Department
Of State, Mr. Folk. got into communlca-
ton with Representative Underwood.
Acting on Instructions from the Presl-
dent, Mr.. Folk sought Mr. Underwood
and Senator simmons to enlist their sup
port for a repeal measure. Senator Sim
mons promptly acquiesced but Mr.. Under
wood assumed a different attitude. He
declared that he was well satisfied with
the tariff bill as it stood that the ques-
ton of this rebate had been thrashed out
once and that he had no desire to re-
open IT,
II the President desires the repeal OF
the section. Mr.. Underwood is quoted as
saying he can inform the Congress by
means of a special message on the sub
ject.
When. later, the President was asked II
he purposed TO send a special message to
Congress asking for the repeal he gave
evidence Of some irritation and declared
that he had no such intention.
New-York tribune., 1913-10-10
Underwood Satisfied.

Mr.. Underwood. when asked to-day
about the question raised in the tariff
law. said.
II am satisfied with the bill rs 1t
stands to-day. However, If the President
sends a message to Congress asking the
repeal Of the preferential per cent duty
clause. I will call the Ways and Means
Committee together for the consideration
OF the Presidents suggestion"
Mr.. Underwood further stated that he
believed there was a misconception in the
departments regarding the clause and
that he believed IL would work out ad
to this country.
New-York tribune., 1913-10-10
Affects Many Treaties.

The President has been advised by the
counsellor of the Department of State,
John Bassett Moore, that the provision
cannot be enforced as enacted without
granting a like rebate to numerous for
eign nations whose treaties with the
United States provide that they shall
enjoy the same duties as are imposed on
goods coming into this country from any
other country or in any other ships.
President Wilson is reluctant to vitiate
the numerous treaties involved. On the
other hand. If the rebate is granted not
only to goods imported in American bot
toms. but to all imported in the ships of
countries entitled 10 ike treatment. II
will fail utterly of accomplishing its pur-
pOse-subsidy 10 American shipping-and
at the same time will cause a material
loss Of revenue, estimated as high as
100000. Furthermore. there would fol-
low serious complications with nations
which have not such treaty provisions,
notably Germany France and Great
Britain. with respect to her colonies.
Mr.. Underwoods unresponsive attitude
came as a shock to the administration,
and the President IS for tho present at
loss as 10 what course TO pursue 1t is
probable, however. that the majority
leader of the House will yield eventually
TO pressure from the White House, just
as he did when the President insisted on
the free listing of raw wool and the post
ponement OF free sugar for three years.
Members OF the House Ways and Means
Committee other than Mr.. Underwood
were inclined to-day 10 believe that if
the President signfied by message or 9TH
erwise that the per cent duty clause
should be eliminated the House would fall
into line with Senator simmons and the
majority OF the Senate

DAN|ELSWANTS
TO KEEP YARDS
BUSY ALL TIME
SECRETARY PLANS TO HAVE ALL
GOVERNMENT VESSELS RE-
PAIRED AT THE YARDS, IN
STEAD OF PRIVATE PLANTS.

The following special from Wash
ington tells OF the plans OF Secretary
Daniels regarding navy yards.
Proposing to maintain government
navy yards at their highest efficiency
through continuous employment of me-
chanics Secretary Daniels is devising
a plan by which he hopes to induce
all executive branches of the govern
ment to send to the yards all repair
work to be done On all types Of
floating craft owned by the govern
ment. Mr.. Daniels hopes soon to have
all government craft constructed at
government plants.
Mr.. Daniels points out that unin-
terrupted employment is essential to
the efficient operation OF naval stations
as auxiharies to the fleet, while failures
to give continuous employment may
seriously impair the usefulness Of the
plants in times Of emergency.
His plan would send to government
yards. all repair and construction
work on revenue cutters. transports,
tugs, barges and other
craft used by executive departments"
