Pensacola is fast becoming leading

NEW YORK POLICE
GIVEN A NEW BLOW
Four Ex-lnspectors Guilty of BribIng
Graft Inquiry Witness to
Flee.

New York, May 8.--James F.
Thompson, James e. Hussey, John J..
Murtha, and Dennis Sweeney, the four
denoted police inspectors charged
with conspiracy to obstruct justice,
were convicted by jury in the su-
preme court on Tuesday.
Only thirty-eight minutes were ta-
ken by the jurors to reach their YER
dict that the defendants were guilty
of misdemeanor in plotting to keep
prospective witness against the ''sys-
tenn" from making graft disclosures
before the grand jury.
The prisoners were remanded for
sentence and returned to their cells.
Their counsel announced that GER
titicate of reasonable doubt will be
sought, which would give the pris-
oners a chance to go free on bail
pending efforts to obtain new trail.
The penalty for obstruction of JUS
tice is one year in jail or fine of
$500, or both.
The men were on trial seven court
days. District Attorney Whitman and
his assistants produced evidence to
show that the four plotted to buy the
silence of George A Sipp, resort
keeper, through bribing him to fee
the state last December, after he had
told the aldermanic committee that
was Investigating the police depart
ment that for years he had made
monthly payments to the police for
protection to his resort. Before Mr..
Whitman had a chance to get Sipp
to repeat this testimony before the
grand jury the hotel man took fight.
Upon being returned to the courts
jurisdiction he declared he had been
bribed with $4,000 to leave.

DEMOCRATS VOTE DOWN
ALL TARIFF AMENDMENTS
Free List Is Kept Unchanged in I'm
derwood Measure-Brief Tells
of income Tax.

Washington, May Tin the discus
sion of the Democratic tariff bill on
Monday the free list was the CHEF
topic of the speakers.
Republicans, wearied by the per
sistence with which the Democrats
rejected all amendments, made per-
functory attempts to place on the
dutiable list articles the bill would
admit free. Only few minor amend
nents proposed by the ways and
means committee Democrats were
adopted.
In almost every instance the house
Republicans argued that the adm1s-
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.
If reductions in wages of working
men follow the enactment OF the tarin
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.
A 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.
Exemption of mutual insurance COM
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
company should be required to pay
the tax than a fraternal association.

CATHEDRAL TARGET
FOR SUFFRAG|STS
Internal Machine Found in st.
Paul's, London.
TICKING is HEARD IN TIME
Defeat of Bill to Give Ballot to Wo-
men Is Followed by Fires and
Attempts to Wreck Public
Buildings.
TICKING is HEARD IN TIME

London, May 9-Swift reprisals
came from the militant suffragists
following the defeat of the bill giving
women the ballot in the house Of COM
mons
The larson squad" and the bomb
squad" were quickly at work. Police
precaution had been greatly Increased
In anticipation of retaliation, but the
woman plotters were too adroit.
Manifestations of suffragette ter
rorism on Wednesday were:
Planting of an Internal machine in
st. Paul's cathedral, probably the
most cherished building in Great Bri-
tain.
Bomb placed in the entrance to
newspaper office In Fleet street
Bomb on the steps of wholesale
drug house.
Burning of pavilion in the cricket
field at Bishops Park. Fulham, West
End of London
Firing of vacant house at Finch
ley, north of London
Firing of Undergrad at Lambeth.
A plot to wreck st. Paul's cathedral
by bomb is attributed to the mill
tant suffragettes. The verger who
conducts sight-seers through the mas
sive edif1ce was making his rounds
when he heard ticking sound near
the high altar.
He found hidden a heavy parcel
done up in brown paper. He immedi-
ately placed 1t in water and handed
1t over to the police, who found suf-
fragette newspaper wrapped up with
the bomb.
Small but fiendishly powerful is
the police officers description of the
machine.
There is no doubt the police say,
that it was placed in position by mill
tant suffragettes or persons in their
employ.
Shortly after the discovery at the
cathedral the police found a similar
bomb-like package on the steps of
newspaper Office in Fleet street and
tin canister believed to contain ex-
plosives was picked up on the steps
of a wholesale drug establishment
near st. PauPs.
The defeat Of the woman suffrage
bill in the house of commons is gen
orally attributed by the newspapers
to the women themselves-the mil
liant ones, whose lawbreaking tactics
alienated the sympathies of suffrage
supporters.
The Times says that the embarass-
ment that the militants have inflicted
on the cause lay like a dead weight
over the whole course of the debate
on the bill in the commons.

TARIFF MEASURE
PASSED BY HOUSE;
VOTE, 28l TO 1879
CARY AND STAFFORD, WISDOM
SIN REPUBLICANS, VOTE IN
FAVOR OF BILL.
SENATE FIGHT PREDICTED
Narrow Democratic Majority in Upper
House May Prevent a Final Vote on
Bill Before the Early Part of
August.

Washington, d. c., May 9.-The I'm
derwood tariff bill, proclaimed by the
democratic party as the answer to it's
platform pledge to reduce the tariff
downward, was passed by the house
late on Thursday.
The vote was 281 to 1879. five demo-
Gratis voting against the bill and two
republicans voting for it.
Four progressives supported the
measure and fourteen opposed it,
while one independent progressive
joined with the majority.
Republicans and progressives, led
respectively by Representatives Mann
and Murdoch, protested to the last
against the measure, the lowest tariff
bill ever written, and proclaiming, as
the democratic avalanche bowled
them over, the virtues Of different
tariff commission plans.
Wisconsin Men Vote Eyes"
Republicans, who voted for the bill,
were Cary and Stafford, of Wisconsin.
The democrats, who opposed it were,
Broussard, Dupre, Lazaro and Morgan
of Louisiana, on account of the SEIZED
ule reducing sugar % per cent and
sending it to the free list in three
years, and G.. B. Smith, of New York.
Progressives, who voted for the bill,
were Kelly and Ripley of Pennsyl-
vania, Nolan of California, Bryan of
Washington and Kent of California,
formerly republican, but now an in
dependent progressive. Progressive
Leader Murdoch and thirteen of his
progressive followers voted with the
minority. Representative Copley,
progressive, did not vote.
Fight Shifts to Senate.
The tariff fight now shifts from the
house, with it's overwhelming demo-
cratic majority to the senate where
the party's slim majority of six al
ready has been reduced, as far as this
bill is concerned, to four. Unless SEN
ators, familiar with the progress of
such legislation, are mistaken, there
is now little prospect of a final vote
on the bill before August l.
The bills passage through the SEN
dIS Will NC IOuSAL' DIT every SLSp ny d
republican organization, apparently
entirely in accord on this subject and
entirely willing to spend unlimited
time and energy in an effort to defeat
it. Leaders of the democrats on the
senate finance committee, which will
handle the bill, express the belief that
1t would go through in practically the
same form as it passed the house and
that their small majority will stand
firm to the last.
La Toilette Undecided.
Senator La Toilette is credited with
an intention to enter into the fight in
dependently. 1t was expected that he
would offer a substitute bill, or at
least submit amendments He de-
clined on Thursday night, however, to
define his position on the Underwood
bill and said he had not decided upon
course of action.
