UPHOLD FREE LIST
IN TARIFF BILL
Democrats Vote Down All Amend
ments Republicans Offer.
RUIN CHARGE IS DENIED
Underwood Says Argument That A.
mission Of Various Articles With
out Duty Would XIII Indus
tries Was Inconsistent.

Washington, May 6.-The free list
of the Underwood tariff bill furnished
the grist for the Legislative mills of
the house,
Republicans, wearied by the per-
sistence with which the Democrats
rejected all amendments, made per-
functory attempts to place on the
duttable list articles the bill would
admit free. Only a few minor amend
ments proposed by the ways and
means committee Democrats were
adopted.
While the house dragged along
through the bill the senate finance
committee decided lot to hold oral
hearings on the various schedules, but
to accept and consider any briefs that
might be submitted by those inter
ested In the tariff
Ruin and High Costs.
In almost every instance the house
Republicans argued that the admis-
sion OF the various articles free would
ruin the industry" and would not re-
duce the cost of living.
Representative Underwood. major
ity leader, pointed out that this argu-
ment was Inconsistent
In order to ruin the industries" he
said, "as you gentlemen seem bound
to do, 1t would be necessary to reduce
the price the producers receive. This
inevitably would result in a reduction
to the consumer"
To Investigate Wage Cuts.
If reductions in wages of working
men follow the enactment of the tariff
bill, the investigating powers of the
department of commerce will be
called in to establish whether they
are of bona fed nature, Secretary
Redfield says.
brief relating to the income tax
was filed with the senate finance com
mittee by the Investment Bankers
Association of America. 1t sets forth
that the bill overlooks the fact that
nine-tenths Of the interest on bonds
is payable on coupons to bearer, and
makes no provision by which the in
terest can be deducted by the cor
poration.
Would Exempt MutuaIs.
Exemption of mutual insurance CON-
panies from the provisions of the In
come tax bill is provided in an amend
ment to the Underwood tariff bill
that Senator Sherman said he will
propose, The senator says there Is no
more reason why a mutual insurance
cOmDany shOuld he reouired IN nav
the tax than fraternal association.
Representative Britten of Illinois
proposed an amendment to the Phil
ippine tariff provision Of the Under
wood bill to reduce the limit of free
imports of cigars permissible from
the Philippines into this country from
$50 100000 to 100000 annually.

PARADE CAUSES A PANIC
Mexico City Screaming In Terror
Without Any Reason.

Mexico City, May 6.-The Cinco de
Mayo celebration passed without the
slightest sign of the trouble which had
been prognosticated. 1t was the finest
and largest military parade held here
since the Centennial. The marchers
were reviewed by President Huerta.
Without any reason panic was
started when the parade was passing
San Juan de Latran. Hundreds of per-
sons ran through the streets scream
ing in terror, This was due, it is
thought solely to the nervous tension
under which the residents of the CAPT
tai are laboring.
