TARIFF BILL ONLY
No Other Measures to Confront
Opening of Congress.
Other Questions May Be Taken
Up at Later Time.

Washington, March 1S-The extra
session of congress, called by Presi-
dent Wilson to assemble April z, will
begin with nothing but the tariff re-
vision bills before it. This fact was
made clear in a statement by Repre-
sentative Oscar w. Underwood, chair
man of the house committee on ways
and means. Until tariff legislation is
well under way in the house no gen.
eraI committees will be named and no
other legislative subjects will be taken
up. The president specified no subject
for the extra session in the proclama-
ton: but it is fully understood that
his message to congress at its opening
will dwell upon the need of tariff re-
vision If currency, Philippine indie
pendence, Alaskan affairs. woman suf-
frage or other pressing questions are
finally forced upon the attention of
congress, it will be only after the Dem
ocratic leaders of the two houses and
the president are convinced that the
slate Of tariff revision is assured.
The date fixed for the tariff session
was accepted by congressional leaders
with satisfaction. Set committees are
organized for work and will take up
the preliminary stages of much gen.
eral legislation early in April. A gem
eral agreement exists, however, to
keep general subjects out of active dis
cussion while tariff legislation is I'M
derway. 4a
The house leaders will be ready to
go ahead with tariff revision as soon
as the session convenes.

CONTEMPT CASE UP.
Hearing Today ON Charge Against
Editor w. R. Nelson.

Kansas City, Mo-, March IS
Hearings n the contempt of court
case against William r. Nelson. edi-
tor and owue- OF the Kansas City Star,
were begun today before Charles c.
Crow, commissioner appointed by the
Missouri supreme court to take the
testimony Mr.. Nelson was cited 4or
contempt last month by Judge Joseph
\. Guthrie of the circuit court, fol-
lowing the publication in his paper
of an article criticising the judge for
granting a divorce lawyer his fee in
q case settled out of court. Judy 2
Guthrie ruled out all efforts by Mr..
Nelson's attorneys to prove the pub
lished statement referred IT,, found the
veteran editor guilty of contempt, sem
fenced him to one day in the county
Jail and ordered him incarcerated i'm
mediately.
Mr.. Nelson avoided going to sail by
obtaining a writ of habeas corpus
from the Kansas City court OF ap-
peals. The latter court released him
upon personal bond and certified the
case to the state supreme court. The
case brought out heated editorial
comment from newspapers all over
the country concern ing the right OF
the press to criticise the courts. Many
of the articles eZCoriated Judge
Guthrie because his decision in the
Nelson case was prepared in advance
of the hearing.

mer Of 1902 his wife, died of the
measles eleven days after the birth
of her eighth child. At her last illn ess
he secured the services of Miss Laura
Miles, a nurse, and after his wife died
he persuaded the nurse to remain and
care for his children. Then, in Janu-
airy, 1908. he married the nurse.
He recIared he believed she was
worried on account Of her religious be-
liefs, and that her mind became af-
fected because Of them. He said he
had consulted a physician about her
mental condition.
Following the testimony of physf-
clans, who declared the plate of false
teeth that caused Mrs. Beers death
might have peen forced through the
walls of the pharynx by involuntary
contractionS of the muscles in an eff

USE SAME METHODS.
Other Manufacturers Conduct BuSl-
ness on Harvester Co. Lines.

Omaha, Neb., March 1s.-The In
ternational Harvester company yes
terday introduced evidence in its de-
Tense to the government ANTITRUST
suit to show that other manufacturers
were using methods similar to those
charged against the defendant.
w. D. Lowe, an Atlantic, Iowa, deal
er, testified that the John Deere
Plow company, which manufactures
binders and mowers, presented him
with a contract which, if he had &C
cepted it, would have ruined his bust
ness and prevented him from taking
on other lines which were necessary.
Mr.. Lowe told during his testimony
of having had similar trouble several
years ago with the International COM
pany. At that time he refused to
confine himself to the line of one
manufacturer and he declined to take
on the Deere line because of the ma
ture of the contract offered him. He
said that by the provisions of the con-
tract he was forced to take on other
lines too large to make his business
profitable. He cited one dealer who
had been Caught in a similar manner
and was forced to depend on the as
sistance of an independent jobber for
his existence. for three or four years"

ATTEMPT JAIL BREAK.
One of Colorado Prisoners Is Wanted
at Salina. Kan.

Denver, Colo. March 1S.-George
Davis, aged 19. is in the city hospital
with a bullet in his right leg as the
result of an attempt last night to re-
lease three friends from the city Jail
with saws and nitroglycerine. Frank
Howard, Arthur Dean and John Ryan,
his friends, were locked up some days
ago. Dean is awaiting extradition to
SaIina, Kan, on d forgery charge.
Davis called at the city jail last
night and was permitted to talk to
them. Police officials, warned of an
attempted Jail break, saw Davis pass
a bundle of saws to the prisoners and
a small bottle to Howard. Davis then
engaged the officers in conversation
to distract their attention from the
prisoners. When the latter made a
break, having sawed the bars of their
cell doors, Policeman Gaven fired on
Davis, who led the way, bringing him
down with a bullet in his leg. City
detectives bounced on Howard, Dean
and Ryan. Thereupon it was discov-
cred that the small bottle Davis had
passed to Howard contained sufficient
explosive to wreck the Jail.
