RAILROADS IN STATE
ADOPT 2.CENT FARE
BE SET THIS WEEK-STATUS
OF LITIGATION.

Oklahoma City, Okla, June 2S.-
The &c passenger fare is to be re-
stored in Oklahoma on the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe; the Gulf Col
orado and Santa Fe; the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas; the Chicago. Rock
Island and Pacific; the St Louis and
San Francisco and the Kansas City
Southern railways early in July. A
stipulation looking to a resumption
of the constitutional fare was signed
late today between Attorney General
West and Cottingham e Bledsoe,
attorneys for the Santa Fe system, and
with 1t goes the assent of the other
lines mentioned.
Date of the resumption is to be
fixed next week. The carriers and
the railroad and warehouse commits
sion of Missouri will meet in confer
ence in Kansas City Tuesday morn
ing to fix time when the new rate
shall become effective in that state
and following that is to be an an
nouncement as to Oklahoma's rate.
According to the stipulation this is to
be as soon as new tariffs can be pre-
pared and the carriers business ad-
justed to the new order and the rate
is to be maintained until final de-
cree of the cause.
1t was further stipulated that the
temporary injunction granted by
Judge Hook is to be set aside, except
as to the freight rates involved,
wherein it shall remain until final
determination. The refund slips is
sued by the carriers in connection
with each ticket sold since the
courts order became effective are
to be disposed of in the final decree;
that is, whether the carriers are to
refund on the basis of &c per mile
will depend upon the state winning its
contention on the issues. This In no
wise affects the future, since the
stipulation provides for placing the
&c rate into effect as before indi-
Gated.

Reciprocity Is Expected.
The lower rates imposed upon for
eign goods by this Government, open
ing up additional business opportuni-
ties in the United States will find
the experts say, a reciprocal increase
In our foreign trade. Many of the
raw materials of the various indus
tries have been placed on the free
list
This will obviate the payment of the
small duty imposed here in force on
materials imported and re- exported as
manufactured articles. If reciprocal
agreements are made as provided for
in measure under the new law
trade, these experts say, win further
expand: but the greatest hope, they
admit, lies in the skill of the Ameri-
can workman and his individual pro-
ducing capacity, which in the past
has enabled the domestic manufac-
turer to compete even against the
smaller paid foreign labor.
The Treasury Department to-day
was busy preparing instructions to
collectors that the per cent rebate
may be allowed on all goods imported
in American ships from Germany,
Canada and few other countries, as
they have no treaties with the United
States with which this rebate would
interfere. This will be of particular
Importance to the lake carrying trade

TEST IS s100,000,00(
Underwood Declares That Results in
Cutting High Cost of Living Will
Come Slowly, but He Is Sure They
Will Come.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4-Treasury
that about S10O,0O0.00O of foreign
merchandise held in bond or held as
cargoes, awaiting the signing of the
new tariff law, began to-day to be
uploaded for appraisement at the re-
duced rates of duty. This means a
loss in revenue on this aggregate of
about S10,O00,000 as compared with
what would have been derived under
the Payne Aldrich law.
The exact figures will not be known
until the reports from various col
Iectors reach the department. These
reports in the rough will begin to
come in Monday Definite results
can not be ascertained for some time,
however as goods are to be released
under the Payne-Aldrich rates to ex-
nedite business, the difference be-
tween the two rates to be related
later on.
Those who have had charge of the
bill in both Houses of Congress hold
that imports will be largely increased
because of the reduced rates, which
they say will lead to a larger con-
sumption of merchandise. The de-
gree of increase. in our foreign trade
will depend upon the way the do
nestle manufacturers meet the
foreign reduced cost.
The Underwood Simmons law has
been hailed by its trainers as a com
petitive tariff in that it has reduced
rates to such a point where domes-
tic manufacturers who heretofore
have enjoyed high protection must
handle their optput in competition
with foreign producers on a more
even basis. This may work out in
larger output of domestic manufac-
lures sold at lower figures and pre-
vent an unusual demand for foreign
goods.
Reduction Believed Sure.
In any event, however, the result
would be reduced cost of the con-
sumner, which was the consideration
most in the minds of those who
framed the law.
1t may be observed in this connec-
ton that the new law imposes the
lowest rates since 1916, when the Wal
ker tariff was adopted. Experts in
Congress are beginning to warn the
public that too much must not be eX-
pected of the new law at once. AL
though the Democrats on the stump
in the last campaign promised to re-
duce the high cost of living, if put in
power, and may have led the people
to believe it would come Immediately,
that view is now being explained as

Europe in Glee Over Tariff
Acts BLOW at ReciDrOcitu

Special Gable to The American.
LONDON, oct. 4.-There is great
rejoicing among manufacturers and
exporters in Great Britain, Germany
France and throughout the continent
generally over the signing of the new
tariff act without any mention there
in of reciprocity.
Merchants generally regard the new
law as an open sesame" to the vast
American markets, and chuckle over
the fact that 1t exacts no CORE
spending advantages abroad for
American exporters.
The self satisfaction felt by all
classes over the new law finds ex-
preston in editorials praising Pres
ident Wilson.
Here follow a few comments from
leading London papers:
Praises President Wilson.
The Chronicle says, editorially:
The President has fought for
and won policy on genuine fiscal
reform. 1t marks an epoch in the
economic and political history of
the United States. The nation,
boldly asserting its mastery over
the unclean interests that were
nearly throttling it, has made an
irreparable breach in the mon
strous tariff wall which they had
reared. For President Wilson
the passage of the new tariff is
but personal triumph. No more
remarkable man has reigned In
the White House since Abraham o
Lincoln.
The new tariff can not fail in
ITS operation to make life easier
10 the great mass of American
people, hitherto feeced merciless-
ly by the big interests.
President Wilson is it's real au-
thor He has shown unsupported
gifts of character. Little did the
people imagine that this intellec-
tual giant would be able to exert
so remarkable an influence over
Congress and within year of his
entry into the Presidential office
succeed in inducing the leading
protectionist country in the world
TO take such a big and so decisive
step in the direction of free
trade
Men of intellect are apt to fail
IN action because they are in
clined at the critical moment to
reflect rather than to act. Presi-
dent Wilson is a shining example
or the contrary. His calm
strength and definiteness con
trast strikingly with the bois-
ferrous energy and assertive ego

to-day before the world as a great

nomic principles or the needs of
public revenue.
The Underwood act is a token
that those days are passing.
Whatever happens, the United
States is not again likely to re-
lapse into the conditions that four
years ago made the Payne act
possible. That is why President
Wilson is literally justified in
hailing the issue of the struggle,
which has brought him nothing
but credit, as a victory for the
people.
The Spectator considers the broa,
features of the tariff revolution whicl
President Wilson has effected who'll!
1t says in part:
They mark a tremendous ad-
vance to freedom of trade

result in economy of human eff
fort and consequent increase of

statesman and leader of men.
The Times says:
If 1t is launched on a falling
market, the enactment of the I'm
derwOod tariff law may prove a
Pyrrhic victory. If, on the other
hand, trade continues brisk for
the next two or three years, the
question which has dominated
and districted American politics
for more than a generation may
be put on the shelf for another
decade. = Reasonable protection
may be accepted as the settled
creed Of the country and the path
opened for the discussion and aC-
complishment of many overdue
reforms.
"SeIf- Government Triumph"
Meanwhile nothing can undo
the fact that the American peo-
Pile have at length taken into their
own hands direction of the fiscal
policy of the nation. The passage
of the Underwood bill is some
thing more than a triumph for
economic sanity 1t is a triumph
for government. 1t marks the
first time that the American cleo
tors. having voted at the polls
for a reduction of the tariff, have
seen their wishes translated into
legislation by their representa-
tiveS.
Hitherto the organized few have
contrived to ride roughshod over
the unorganized many. Schedules
have been dictated by log-rolling
interests and lobbyists. and great
industrial and agricultural combi-
nations have manipulated each
successive bill to please them
selves and with little or no re
gard for political morality or eco
