Review the House Measure.

provided in the tariff bill, the knowl-
edge that sugar will be free at the
end Of three years will have de-
pressing effect on the business during
that period

senate side. where the democrats Of

Await Further Details.

Berlin. April 11.-Tariff experts and
manufacturers in Germany are i'm
clined to reserve their opinions on the
American tariff revision bill, pending
the arrival of fuller details than have
been given in the cabled summaries.
DR.. Wilhelm Wendlandt Of the
Commercial Treaty society which spe-
cializes in tariff studies on behalf Of
German manufacturers and CONNER
cial bodies. gives expression to what
is the fairly general belief when he
declares that the matter of reductions
OF tariff is less important than the
methods of appraising and collecting
duties. The announcement that the
formalies of ad volarem appraisel
are to be made stricter. and that the
treasury will be authorized to exclude
wares whose manufacturers refuse in
spection Of tehir books, will, he says,
render the reform illusory as far as.
German manufacturers are concerned.
Az long as the regulation. in this
:'cgard are not revisRi, Tor. Vent!. iii;
continues. there can be no Question Of
a real reform of the American tariff.
