Suffrage Strikes TentaCIeS
 Embrace Nation

Brussels, Belgium, April 1.-The Bel gian workers strike for manhood suffrage continues to extend slowly in every part of the country. Small numbers of men have returned to work here and there, but these are unim- portant as compared with the figures of the fresh recruits who have joined the movement. The men, as rule, appear to be settling down to a long test of endurance.
 The Socialist organizations have opened dining halls in convenient Eoca- tions for necessitous workmen The strikers and their families generally are employing their time in working their gardens or making walking tours to neighboring places of interest while the strike managers are organizing concerts, dramatic performances, nov in picture shows and magic lantern lectures to amuse and instruct the strikers and to keep them out of mis- chief
 A few arrests of strikers have been made for interfering with men who re- mained at work, but investigation of the charges showed that the accused were only standing at factory gates and shouting "FFurrah for the strike.'' 9

FREE LIST PROVISIONS
 AWAIT ACTION OF BUSY
 DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY

washington, April 1.-The Demo- cratic House caucus resumed consid- eration of the tariff here, today, with every prospect of rapid completion Of the measure and its presentation to the House early next week. With the fight over free wool and free sugar settled, the free list and adrniniStra- tive provisions remained as important issues ahead.
 Representative Harrison, of NTissis- sippi, a member of the new foreign affairs committee, and others are planning a fight against the provision to permit discount of five per cent. on all duties imposed on goods inn ported in vessels built in the United States and wholly the property of United States citizens. They contend that amounts to a ship subsidy and it ies-
 There is but one tariff bill that ever before carried such a provision,'' declared MT. Harrison, today, "and that was the first tariff, passed in 17se as a retaliation against similar acts of other countries. Thomas Jeff ferson advocated 1t for no other req son than that. The provision was changed in all subsequent tariff acts. If such a provision is retained 1t will cause every foreign country with which we have commercial treaties-
 
 tice of abrogation upon us or to re- taliate by increasing the duties on imports from or exports to the United States"
 The caucus took up the remainder of the wool schedule when the dis cussion was resumed. Earlier, the ways and means committee majority held a meeting to consider the pro- tests of foreign countries against cer- tain provisions of the administrative features of the bill, communications forwarded to Chairman Underwood by Secretary Bryan.
 Republican members of the House were busy, today, preparing for fur ther discussion of the tariff bill and a caucus tonight. Many amendments to various sections of the bill had been prepared and will be offered at tonfght's session. Substitutes for some sections are being prepared by Re- pub1icans of the ways and means committee to be offered in the House in place of the Underwood bill sched- ules on wool and cotton.
