CONGRESS SURE
TO LOWER TARIFF.

Only a few days eiapse between
now and Monday when Congress will
meet in special session for the pur-
pose Of considering the tariff ques-
ton. President Wilson will send a
shor: message to that body in which
he will briefly outline the promises the
Democratic party has made the people
in reference to lower tariff.
No one can tell how much of re-
vision will take place nor just how it
will be accomplished. But There will
be 4 substantial revision downward,
make no mistake about that 1t will
be a. radical revision in the opinion Of
the Republican protectionists, a mild
revision in the opinion of the tariff
Tor revenue men and slight reduction
al viewed by free traders. But there
will be revision of the tariff, even if
it is not satisfactory to the men who
cd the revising.
There is yet to be decided the CUES
ton as to whether there will be one
bill or dozen and it may take DEM
ocratic caucus to determine this i'm
portant matter. That it is highly inn
portant is shown by the division over
tie question and the wide differences
of opinion among leaders of the party
If passed schedule by schedule the
r. tariff ceases to be clog rolling" prop
os:!ion. In the form adopted by the
house in The last Congress the Demo
Gratis can pass bills such as they pass
ed at that time. but it may be difficult
to avoid inequalities.
Some bills may fail, and the result
will be high duties in some schedules
and low duties in others. Men who
want to protect certain industries ant
products in their states and districts
would be almost helpless under the
schedule by schedule plan. But il
there Is one general bill those VINO arc
seeking protection or who hope to pre-
vent serious cuts in different SEIZED
ues may be able to form combination;
and prevent what they think will b.
harmful revision.
Advocates of real reduction vii

This becomes more important wher

But whatever method is used b,

the Democrats that the tariff must b

DETROIT, Mich, May B.-The
Tigers are still in stage Of ex-
pertinent Manager Jennings is trying
all sorts of line-ups and batting or
ders, seeking to find the ideal combi-
nation that will bring continuous VIC
tory. Thus far he has failed. though
the team has played good ball at times.
The Yankees. admittedly the poorest
team in the circuit, managed to defeat
the Jungaleers, but they were aided
much by the misplays Of the men who
labor for Hughey Jennings.
Yesterday was day Of rest for both
aggregations, and the little vacation
was welcomed warmly by the athletes
of both teams The Tigers are not
going any too well. and the Grin men,
with Chick Gandil hobbling around on a

condition. Every day Of rest coming to

in a single game seems almost miracu-

to do II again. A rumor has reached
the team that Washington thinks the
boys are discouraged at their failure to
hit Don't believe IL. they are not dis
fighting mad about II, the proper
spirit for bunch Of youngsters, and II
looks as II the poor old battered Junga-
leers would have to suffer for this re-

only men pitching really good ball just
now. One may be defeated, 1t is true.
but Manager Griffith thinks he will land
all three games here. Gandil did not do
his injured toe much good by playing in
that last game In st. Louis. but he was
ordered into the fray and had to obey
his boss. Griffith would never have to
force matters with his star first sacker
unless the need had arisen. Schaefer
and Al Williams have both fallen down
on the first corner and Gandil will con-
tine in the game despite his injured toe.
