Senator Smith OF Michigan Sees Dark
Days Ahead-Sugar and Other
Industries TO BE
Ruined.

Washington, May 1O.-Republi-
cans ,of the senate leaped eagerly
into their fight against the Under
wood tariff bill when 1t was brought
over from the house and precipitat-
ed an Issue by attempting to over
ride the decision of the Democrats
to consider the measure without
public hearings.
Forerunning the assault that Re-
publicans propose to wage against
the schedules from agate to zinc
Senator Penrose sought to have the
bill referred to the finance COM
mittee with instructions for public
hearings after Senator Simmons,
chairman of the committee, had NOV
ed for reference without instruction.
Action on this phase was pending
when the senate adjourned until
Tuesday, several Republican leaders
predicting that they would win their
contention, and that public hearings
would be forced over the heads OF
the finance committee. Democratic
leaders, however, disputed this pre-
diction.
Speaking of the Penrose amend
ment, Senator William Alden Smith
(Mich.) in a vigorous appeal for
consideration of the bill in the open
instead of "in the darkness and
gloom" of the committee room, as
sailed the tariff bill. He declared
that 1t would result in repetition
of dark days" that followed the
Wilson bill; that the sugar indus
try would be ruined, that. other In
dustries would suffer and that al
ready business was falling off rap
idly throughout the country.
Charging that free sugar in
three years would give the American
ESugar Refining company and the
Federal Sugar Refining company al

Interests, their only domestic rivals
Senator Smith declared that the beef
sugar industry in which $4,000 per
sons in Michigan alone we're inter
ested, would be wiped out"
IF the American Sugar Refining
company and the Federal Sugar Re-
lfinig company" he said, "have made
an alliance with the Democratic par
lty, it as unholy alliance. Men who
have not shirked in committing
crimes to increase the volume OF
their business and who are now re-
spending to the will Of the law
make very. poor allies for any poll

NEW PAVING LAW
MAY BE KNOCKED OUT
Subject OF Much Discussion in the
Second Class Cities.

Sen. Ben s. Paulen OF Wilson
county, sent letter to Charles Ses-
sions, secretary of state, yesterday,
that indicates that the bill relating
TO paving in second class cities and
which has stopped much OF the I'M
provement work in these cities In
addition to the cost Of paving the
street intersections. Under the old
laws the property owners paid all
the paving cost except the street in
tersections and the property owners
who had paid for paving their streets
did not feel like paying an extra tax
to help pave some other street.
According to Senator Paulen when
the bill reached the senate he offer
ed some amendments to the law,
which the senate journal shows were
adopted by that body before the
law was passed and the law was
passed in such shape that the prop
erty owner who had already paid his
paving tax could not be assessed for
the extra tax. But the enrolled copy
of the bill which the governor sign
ed and which has been published
does not contain these amendments.
The matter has been turned over
to the attorney general for investi-
CATION. Under a ruling Of the SUI
preme court the legislative records
must show conclusively that the bill
as signed by the governor and pub
lished as a law, was the bill as
it passed both houses. The court
will not let law fail because of
technicaIitfes on its record and the
journal must show that the law as
published was not published as 1t
actually was enacted.

RIVERS WINS EASILY.
knocks IA. o. Brown Down Five Times
in Fight.

Los Angeles Feb. PA deadly
right swing. four times repeated, ended
the scheduled 20 round bout at Yer
non Saturday between Knockout
Brown, the New York lightweight,
and Joe Rivers of Los Angeles, with
victory for the Mexican before the end
of the tenth round. 1t was the first
defeat for the blonde German, whose
Sobriquet had been earned by the
manner in which he had won scores
of fights, and it was decisive. Five
times Rivers sent Brown to the mat
with his victorious right swing in the
deciding round, three times for the
count of nine The fifth time the
referee stopped the fight without
counting.
1t was a sensational finish to a furi-

and Teuton battled viciously from the

blow was drive to the body, which he
used effectively.

the Mexican many opportunities to

many only seemed to act as a spur to
the fasteners aggressiveness.
Rivers Brilliant Work.
Brown began leading in nearly every
round. Sometimes Rivers would allow
the German to do the lighting in the
first minute, only to cut loose with
both hands at a savage clip that clearly
bewildered the New Yorker, as well as
Furnishing him badly. In the clinches
Rivers had all the better of the mill
ing.
After taking a hard drubbing for
five rounds Brown came back strong
in the eighth. He was just beginning
to solve the Mexican's defense against
the puzzling right and he jabbed
through Rivers guard repeatedly. A
vicious rally by Rivers in the last ten
seconds did not overcome Browns lead
in this round.
In the ninth both landed hard and
frequently.
Both seemed tired when they came
up for the tenth. Brown sent two
hard lefts to the head and a right to
Rivers stomach. Then the Mexican
got the opening he wanted.
Timing his blow accurately he
caught Brown on the point of the jaw
as the latter ducked. Brown went
spinning half way across the ring and
fell heavily. Four times he rose, only
to be sent down again. He was "out
on his feet when the last savage
swing sent him to his back in the
center of the ring and the tight was
stopped.

W0LGAST GETS DRAW.
Former Champion Fights to Point of
Collapse.

San Francisco, Feb. 24.-Ad VOL
CAST, once lightweight champion OF the
world, literally fought himself to the
point of collapse Saturday to gain a
draw decision with Harlem Tom
Murphy at the Daily City open air
arena in a gruelling twenty-round bat
tie, at the conclusion of which Referee
Jim Griffith was unable to raise the
glove of either man to denote a win
ner Murphy, too. was totterlng, but
it was apparent that his reserve was
greater than that of his antagonist
Wolgast fought his best battle since
his last illness of two years ago, but
the oldtime dash and stamina were
lacking. systematic application of
tremendous right and left drives to the
body after he had been worsted in the
first ten rounds of milling slowed up
his opponent considerably and enabled
the erstwhile champion to earn di-
wilson of hOnOrS.
Throughout the twenty rounds there
was little. if any, idle time. Murphy
took the bit in his teeth at the start,
and it was not long before he had bat
tered the Cadillac pugilist's face al
most to a pulp. Rapid fire right and
left facers, delivered at close range,
seldom went amiss, and when the con-
test was half over, the Harlemite
seemed in fair way to win.
WolgaSt, meanwhile, was content to
husband his strength, although what
punches he landed on MurphyS body
carried greater force than those of the
w OiSdSI IlHdIS ISdIlZeo
that his only hope lay in this direc
ton, and from the tenth round, he de-
voted his attacks almost exclusively to
Murphy's middle section. Time and
again, after being worsted in heart
breaking rallies which all but carried
the belligerents outside of the ring, he
would reach his opponents stomach
with right and left smashes. the i'm
pact of which was heard in the remote
corners of the arena. Murphy could
not escape these onslaughts, although
they served only to lacerate his fight
spirit.
In the nineteenth round Wolgast,
fighting wit hthe ferocity of an ami
NAL at bay, landed so frequently that
Murphy welcomed the sound of the
friends about the ring side best he
could with his puffed face and split
lips.
The last round resolved itself into a
question of the survival of the fittest
Science was forgotten. The fighters
batt1ed all around the ring, head to
head, shoulder to shoulder. and slug
ged away as though the fight had just
commenced, with Referee Griffin
frantica1iy trying to pull them apart.
Three minutes of this work found
only the rope strands saving Wolgast
exhaustion, while Murphy was eagerly
watching for the timer to clang his
gong.
Without hesitation, Griffin raised
the hands of both men aloft and the |
crowd cheered. Both presented bat
tered appearance as they were hustled |
to their dressing rooms.

the burning comfort around his brother

dragged him from the house just as the
roof fell in. Both of the boys were
badly but not seriously burned. The
home was nearly all burned before the
fire company arrived.
The company had not had a call for
nearly four months and had had three
runs that night The extreme cold
weather made it slow work for them
to act and the jadded condition of the
horses and bad roads made haste to
the fire nearly impossible.
