OLD SOLDIERS L0ATH TO
LEAVE NORM0YLE'S CAMP
Half Remain to Enjoy U. S.
Hospitality-High Praise from
All-Experiment a Success.

From n stsn Correspondent Of The Tribune.
Gettysburg. Penn. July 4.-Only half
the encampment remains. That such a
large percentage of the old soldiers
continue 10 live under the army tents,
To eat the army grub and TO remain
with their contemporaries of both
sides is considered an unusual compli-
ment TO Major Normoyle and his able
assistants.
These officers are iubilant tonight.
Before the camp assembled predictions
poured in upon them that an assem-
bage Of fifty thousand old men, most
Of them above seventy years Of age,
could result only in an appalling deci-
nation of the veterans. They went TO
work to prove the contrary. and COM
plete success has crowned their efforts
They prepared for mortality equalling
FIVE hundred. So far, and the encamp-
ment is practically over there have
| been only eight deaths, fewer, it has
been repeatedly pointed out than
| would have resulted had the boys Of
| the Blue and the Gray remained at
| home. AS n matter OF fact, the outing
| has benefited them. Thanks to the re-
markedly efficient sanitary and COM
missary arrangements. the old veterans
are returning TO their Northern and
| Southern homes happier and healthier
for the experience.
| For ne most part they can't praise
| their treatment enough. Their food
| has been ample and OF excellent quail
ity. though simple. Ice cold water has
flowed for them without restraint all
| over the camp grounds, owing TO the
ample artesian wells drilled by the
quartermaster's department OF the
United States Army for the. occasion.
Relief stations and field hospitals have
attended 10 all their ills. however triv-
ial, and every sanitary precaution has
been considered.
Major Normoyle insists on passing
the credit for the success Of this unique
experiment to his assistants. Major w.
r. Grove and Captains George T.. Stew
art and A. d. McCasky, OF the commits
sary branch, and TO Captain Huguet
and Lieutenants A. NJ. Burdett and b.
H. Bagby. OF the transportation branch
of the quartermaster's department.
These men are celebrating the Fourth
with more fervor. probably than any
other Americans, for they know that II
they can manage with such an amaz-
ing facility an encampment Of old vet
Grams they can produce even more
startling results in time of war with an

H0KE SMITH TURNED DOWN
Suggestion That Tariff Act Take
Effect Oct. 1 Rejected.
From The Tribune Bureau

Washington, July AFTER undergoing
the various processes Of revision and de-
velopment in the House. the majority
membership OF the Finance Committee
ate, the tariff bill drafted by the Ways
and Means Committee Of the House Is
at last in the form in which 1t will be
presented 10 the Senate. The Democratic
members Of the Finance Committee put
the finishing touches TO IT to-day and
prepared the way for the final action by
the caucus tomorrow. Should the bill
be presented TO President Wilson for sig
nature by the middle Of September many
Democrats will feel that they have ac-
complished their task within good time.
The Finance Committee to-day rejected
the suggestion of Senator Hoke Smith
that October / be fixed as the date when
all the sections for which a time has not
been specifically set shall go into effect.
IL is their purpose, and doubtless the eau
Gus will approve IT, that the bill go into
effect at once. The application Of The
wool schedule will be delayed somewhat
respect between raw wool and manufact-
ured products. but the final decision will
be made by the caucus tomorrow.
Sugar, with the approval Of the Demo-
cratic caucus, will be subject 10 the pres
ent rates until March !, 1914.
The committee also decided to-day 20
afford the California wine growers some
relief from the provision taxing brandies
used in the fertilization of sweet wines
by placing a duty Of Is per cent on spuri-
Gus wines and requiring that all contain
ers Of spurious wines be labelled. The in
come tax exemption relating to the allow
ance for depreciation OF mines. which has
been under consideration by Senator
Walsh. will also be modified by the eau
Gus t. morrow.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,

pronounced it local disease and prescribed
local remedies. and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it in

constitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,

will avoid places where they are liable to
be stalled in mud or have their tires
punctured on rocky roads. With every
one agreed as to the desirability and
utility of good roads, the cost of such
roads becomes an important matter.
With gravel, crushed rock and sand
available, some form Of bitumen binder,
such as asphalt, is necessary to hold the
stone together, make the road water
proof and keep down dust. The present
tariff is So ton on refined and 81. SO on
crude asphalt, and this not only increases
the cost of roads and streets constructed
with imported asphalt, but makes the
domestic as we'll as imported materials
of this character more costly. The great
demand for heavy oils from which as
phalt is made) for road use and fuel is re-
sulting in constantly increasing prices.
This tendency would be retarded by re-
moving the duty from the competing
product imported asphalt-and the i'm
porters of lake asphalt (all of which is
produced outside of the United States)
have formally agreed to reduce their
prices by the amount of the tariff if it is
removed. In other words, the price of
refined asphalt would be So and of crude
asphalt $3.50 per ton less than at pres
ent, and lower price for the domestic
product would naturally follow. The
present tariff is thus a direct tax on
good road and street construction and
adds materially to their cost. This is a
matter that appeals to every tax payer,
to every automobile owner, to all who
want good roads and streets. Congress
is now engaged in tariff legislation and
an effort should be made to have import
ed asphalt placed on the free list

There is no need for further argument
in behalf of good roads. Everybody ad-
mits their desirability. That they en-

in time and labor is universally conceded.
T his was the situation when the advent
of the automobile gave an added stimu-
lus to the good roads movement. The
automobile has come to stay and must
be reckoned with. The summer visitors
who formerly came to this section by
boat or train now use touring cars and
