Washington, Aug. 20-Secretary Daniels has directed the punishment of the sailors of the Pacific reserve fleet who participated in the destruc- tion of the Industrial Workers of the World and Socialists property in Seattle, JulS 17-18, if they can be identified, though he severely con- demned the civilians who abused the sailors and the American flag.
 l. w. w. Attacks on Flag.
 The secretary's action today was based upon a report by a board of in vestigation headed by Commander Thomas Washington. The board found that for some time before the rioting at Seattle there had been attacks upon the flag, the government and partic- ularly upon the army and navy in the Pacific seaport cities by people calling themselves members of the Industrial Workers of the World and to some ex tent by so- called socialists. The civil authorities, the report said, allowed speakers to harangue crowds and en- gender ill feelings, resulting in the at tack upon the soldiers and two sailors July IT. This led to the burning and destruction of property on the follow ing night.
 PoIoice Force Blamed.
 The board has placed direct respon- sibiiity for the action of the crowd 1 led by civilians and including only 2
 small proportion of enlisted men, upoI the failure of the police force to pre- 1 vent the destructioon of property be- cause of their sympathy with. the pur- ! poses of the crowd. Furthermore the 1 board expressed the opinion that ths I rioting was attributable to genera

Especial to The Bulletin

Washington Aug 20.-In conver- sation with your correspondent last night Senator Brandegee said that he did not expect any currency legisla- tfon at this special session of con- gress. T do not mean by that that we are not to make an attempt al financial legislation, for we are, but Z do not think it will be passed before the times arrives for the regular SeS- sion to begin in December. We may have some kind of q financial bill passed by May or June of next year, he said.
 Senators like Bristoy of Kansas ana Crawford of South Dakota will fllll- buster without limit before they will allow 8 bill to pass the senate that does not provide for the acceptance of farm mortgages as a basis for the is sue of money by the banks. They say that if a note signed by Bill Smith and endorsed by Sam Jones is good security for bank currency, money based upon the very ground that pro- duces the corn and wheat. the basis of all wealth, ought to be good enough for anybody.
 Senator Brandegee said that he hop ed after the tariff bill was out of the way to be able to make a visit of a few weeks at his Connecticut home. q understand they have built some new roads and bridges up there since have been away, and want to ride over them before they are all worn out,'' he declared.

NORWICH ENGRAVERS MAKE
 PROTEST TO CONGRESSMAN
Want Separate Tariff Classification for
 Rollers, Mills and Dies.
Especial to The Bulletin !

Washington, Aug. 20.-The Friendly Society of Engrayers of Eastern Con- necticut, with headquarters at Nor Wich, have called the attention of the members of the Connecticut delegation to the fact that the pending tariff bill does not provide for a separate classi- fication for engraved rollers, mills and dies used in printing and embossing. The engravers consider it an injustice to allow these articles to come in un- der the classification of parts of ma chinery at 25 per cent. ad valorem, as the difference in the cost of production between this country and England and Germany is very great In the matter of wages alone, they say, the engrav- CTS in the United States receive double the amount paid in England, and four times what is paid in Germany
 AS the metal schedule has been passed over, the members of the dele gation will give the matter considera- ton when the schedule comes up again for action
