RAILROAD CLERKS
 STILL DISSATISFIED

 Regarding Concessions.

New Haven, Conn, Jan. 13.-The New York. New Haven and Hartford Railroad company tonight issued the following statement relative to the differences between the clerks and the road:
 Tn the agreement between the clerks of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company and the management each man was to receive an increase of fifteen cents per day, all holidays, and vacations during the summer season without loss of time, provided this could be granted without additional expense to the company. It carried with 1t the promotion of men in accordance with their seniority, de- pending upon fitness and ability; over time to be paid extra after 8 supu- lated number of hours; a minimum rate of pay of $2.00 per day to all men performing all clerical work and $1.90 per day to all others and the granting of equal consideration to clerks for positions as agents, chief clerks, cashiers. forenen, etc.
 The negotiations were concluded on January II and the agreement was to become effective on that date. Ac- cording to articles appearing in some of the newspapers. the agreement was apparently very satisfactory to the clerks. However, the clerks came back today, demanding that the agreement be made retroactive, which the com pany has not agreed to, so the mat ter at this time seems to be in an unsettled state"

Lower Tariff
 On Cheap Silk
AS PART OF DEMO-
 CRATIC PROGRAM.
TESTIMONY BY CHENEY
South Manchester Manufacturer De- cIares to Committee That WorInen Reap All Benefit of the Tariff.

Washington, Jan. 13.-Free rough and dressed lumber, hewn and squar- ed timber, shingles Iaths and fence posts, retention of approximately the present high tariff on the higher grades of silks and reductions in the cheaper silks used by the common people, and penalizing, drastic bar to shut out Adynamfted" silks. were indicated to- day as parts of the expected democrat 1c revision programme.
 Free Meats May Be included
 The house committee on ways and means devoted the day to hearings on the wood and silk schedules of the tariff law. and when the testimony and examinations were closed the sentf- ment favored the inclusion of these provisions, possibly together with free meats in the tentative tariff plan the committee will frame to submit to the extra session of congress.
 Women Will Buy, Regardless of Price
 The burden of testimony on the wooden schedule was a plea for the preservation of the present tariff rates Silk, Involving immense interests, pre- sent 8 complexfty of technicalities per- haps greater than in any of the other thirteen schedules of the tariff. Silks - according to Horace B. Cheney of South Manchester, Conn.,, as spolzes- country, depend upon fashion: if women want them they'll pay the amount they have to get it."
 Silks Luxury," Says Underwood.
 Women always want something that looks fancy, said c. A StreuI of New York, while Joining with Samuel Kri- del, another inporter,in protest against and other things.
 Silks are luxury, that is most silks" commented Chairman Under wood of the committee.
 French Velvet Trust
 F. P. Kip of Bridgeport testified that he knew there was a syndicate of vel vet manufa cturers in France that i'm them for a three year period and a1- lowing rebates of 10 per cent. denied where q buyer deals with anyone out side of the trust, and that this com premise 90 per cent. of the silk velvet manufacturers of France, Germany and England.
 Duty Goes to Workmen.
 Representative Palmer of Pennsyi- vanai, democrat, made a persistent ex- animation of Witness Cheney, designed to bring out that the silk manufactur- CTS wanted to keep as high as possible the rates of the cheaper silks that ap- peal to the mechanic and workman class, asked if the duty on these cheaper silks did not actually go to the manufacturer.
 ''No," replied MT. Cheney. "It goes to the worlnen. For every dollar you might get by reducing the tariff you would take two dollars away from the workmen through decreased wages
 High Duty on Cheap Silks.
 Mir. Cheney agreed that if the com mittee should rewrite the silk sched- ule it would be practicable to make some changes to equalize points of minor importance. MT. Palmer ob- served that the present rates on the cheaper silk goods were practically prohfbitfve. Mir. Cheney agreed that some articles are very nearly prohibi- tive.
 The cheapest velvets and plushes,'' insisted MT. Palmer, "do not come in at all ?''
 Not to any large extent. replied the witness.

Governor Wilson So lnterprets Hh
 Election to Presidency.

Trenton. N. J., Jan. Ex-Governor Wilson, for whom the majority of the states in the union today officially cast their electoral votes for the presiden- cy, proclaimed in speech to the New Jersey presidential electors that he in terpreted his election as the distinct expression of the progressive impulses of the country.
 T shall not be acting as a partisan when pick out progressives, and only progressives, to aid me- the governor said in analyzing the spirit that he said had produced his election
 Governor Wilson predicted no di- vision in the counsels of the demo- cratic party, but foresaw solidarity. These democrats" he said, "who hitherto have been slow to align them selves with the progressive banner o& the party are everywhere yielding The business men of the country are, too, swinging around to an unselhsh and broader view of their duties to the people"
 The governor spoke St a luncheon given for the electors by the demo cratic state committee just before the official ballot was cast
 "I suppose some people have the idea that l love to fight just for the fun of it. Now that is not in the least my temperament. I am really 8, very tame. anenable person; but I do love to feel in my blood the splendid satisfaction of fighting for something, something that Is bigger than myself. and trying for the time at least to think I am as big as the thing I am fighting for. That is a solid satisfaction.

WILL ATTEMPT TO
 REVISE THE RULES
Democrats Will Resume Their Efforts
 at Hartford Today.

Hartford. Conn., Jan. 13.-A- revision of the joint rules which the republican house passed last week will be pro- posed by the democratic majority in the senate tomorrow, according to the outlook tonight. The democrats are expected to attempt to pass an amend nent to the rules inserting therein a clause which will provide for a stip- ulated number of democrats to be ap- Neil, owing to his familiarity with the rules and senate procedure, will lead the fight for the democrats to be as- sisted on the floor by Senator Landers.
 While the democrats have command of the situation it is thought that the republicans will try to prevent the amendment going through by using various parliamentary tactics. In the house the rule of the previous ques- ton enabled the closure on debate but as there is no such rule in the pate 8 contest of some length is ahead.
 It is understood that Speaker Web ster will not announce the house conn., nfttees until the matter of the rules is decided. Should the senate pass the amendment the joint rules would hay to be sent back to the house for con- currence or non- concurrence. Mean time the democrats predict legislative matters will be at complete stand still. Some hope of 3 solution of the disa greenent is pinned on the confer Thonas before the session begins to- morrow. MT. Thons will probably re- port to the senatorial conference Re- publican senators tonight say they have laid out nc line of action, not having conferred. and probably will not.
