TARIFF FOR
CHIEF THEME
OF CONGRESS
House Leaders Urge President to
Confine Special Session to
Its Consideration
Japanese Ambassador First Di-
plOmat Formally Presented
to Wilson-Day at the
Capital

Washington, March 6-Prosident
Wilson was strongly urged by House
leaders today, to use his influence
for, and agree to, a plan which would
conffne Congress, at the special session
called for April 1, to the enactment OF
tariff legislation and the passage of
the two appropriation bills that failed
in the closing days Of the last Com
Grtss.
The House leaders want to pass the
tariff bills as quickly as possible,
send them to the Senate and then in
stead of taking up other legislation,
such as currency reform, have the
House adjourn for periods of three
days at a time.
Their object in this, it was said,
was to have the Senate the only body
doing business so that the eyes of
the nation could be focused upon it
and attention would not be diverted
to other subjects,
In the opinion of some House
leaders this would enable President
WILSON, and the Democrats in the Sen
ate, through their own power and the
force of public attention, to get such
tariff legislation as the Democratic
platform declared for, passed.

Hartford. March 6.-The nomination
<of John J.. Mcfarland, of New Ha-
ven. to be factory inspector to Sue
ceed George L. Mclean, Republican,
was sent by Gov. Baldwin to the sen
ate today. AS in the case of the high
way commissioner, Gov. Baldwin rec
ogn1zed his right to appoint a factory
inspector to fill the vacancy which he
claims has existed from July 1, 1911,
due tu the failure of the Senate of
that session to confirm.
His nomination of Mr. Mcfarland
had been anticipated and the nominee
was at the capitol today receiving con-
gratulations when it became known
that his name had been sent in
At the same time, Gov. Baldwin re-
appointed William H. Corbin of Hart
ford TO be state tax commissioner for
the four year term beginning July /,
next. In this nomination, it had been
expected that Gov. Baldwin would rec
ognjze the services of Mr. Corbin, al
though he is a Republican.

PAROLE FOR
MEN UNJUSTLY
IMPRISONED

Hartford, March 6-The board of
parole met at the Connecticut state
prison at Wethersfeld, late this after
noon,, following the regular meeting
of the directors of the prison, to con-
slider the cases of Salvatore Ienma
and RAMA Salvatore, of Greenwich,
who are alleged to be unjustly In
careerated. It is probable that the
two men will be released ass a sub
committee appointed by the board
of such action and States Attorney
Judson of Fairfield county, who prose-
cuted the men in the criminal court
is in favor of it.
Iemma and Salvatore were con-
victed Dec. 9, 1909, largely on circum-
murder Malcolm Merritt, a paymaster
in Greenwich, who was said to be car
rying $4,000 on his person for the pur-
pose of paying off a construction gang.
Judge Ralph Wheeler sentenced the
pair to from 10 to IA years in state
prison. They protested their inno-
cence at the time and have since re-
iterated it. 1t is said that Iemma's
wife and two children have died of
privation since he was sent to prison.
Some weeks ago, the states attor-
ney received letter from Domenic
Patia, formerly of Greenwich, admit
ting that he and another had attempt
ed the paymaster's life. The letter
was written from Pennsylvania but
the present whereabouts of the writer
are unknown. Investigations by
States Attorney Judson since receiv-
that Ienma and Salvatore are in
nocent and that there has been a gross
miscarriage of justice in committing
them to prison.
The board voted to parole the two
men and referred the matter to a sub
committee for further investigation to.

TRANSPORTS WITH sERVIAN
TROOPS REPORTED SUNK

Vienna, March 6-The Turkish
cruiser Hamidfeh, today, sank three
Greek transports loaded with Ser
Wan troops on the way to Scutari ac-
cording to a Constantinople despatch
to the Neue Frei Presse.
The attack on the transports occur
red, it is said, near the peninsula Of
Hugion Oros, in the Aegean Sea
From this it would appear that the
transports were proceeding not to
Scutari but to GaIlipo1i, where # was
proposed some time ago by the Bal
kan allies to make flank attack on
the Turkish troops defepding the Oar
danelIes.
The convoy of Greek transports was
a large one, consisting of % vessels
which carried "a guns. They were
encountered by the cruiser Hsmidieh
shortly after they had left the coast
With her battery of powerful At inch
guns she was able to create havoc
among the practically unprotectsd
transports loaded with soldiers, ac-

GREEKS REJOICING

London. March s-There is great
rejoicing in Greek diplomatic circles
and among the Greek residents Of
London over the fall of the important
Turkish stronghold of Janfna which
had hitherto offered such stern re8is-
tance to the Greek attack. Their joy
is not only on account Of the success
of their army in the field but because
they claim that the capture OF Janiua
places Greece in a much stronger po-
sition to deal with Bulgaria when
the time comes for the division OF the
spofls of war.

Heretofore the railroads have charged as much To haul pota- toes from Flagstaff here as it has cost 10 get Greeley potatoes ana in some cases California potatoes have reached the Phoenix market for less than the Flagstaff commodity could be brought here.

Under the new order which is lengthy and com prehensive it will be possible for Phoenix to ship her potatoes and onions to such markets as Globe Douglas, Clifton so they can be sold with the same advantages as the Cal. ifornia and Colorado products.
 At the same time it will enable the Flagstaff spud raisers to ship their product to Phoenix and thus obtain a permanent and increasing market foi
