TALL|AFERR0 GETS
Penny IN DAMAGES
VERDICT CONSIDERED yINDICA,
TTON IN SUIT AGAINST FOR
MER PARTNER.

Damages amounting TO one cent
were awarded yesterday in the Law
and Equity court to the plaintiff In
the suit OF j. l., Taliaferro against
George G. Ware for $500. Mr.. Ware
pulled penny from his pocket and
handed It over to the clerk. who took
1t as part payment of the costs which
fall upon the defendant.
The suit was the result of SANDER
GUS remarks alleged to have been
made by Ware against Taliaferro,
whom he Ia said to have charged with
using their partnership funds for his
personal debts.
The two men were formerly en-
gagged in the lumber business. which
went out of existence, Its failure, it
was alleged. was attributed by Ware
to Taliaferro. The verdict, though
awarding only one cent damages, and
having no reference to the first day
Of April, is one of vindication.

While President Wilson has not taken
any positive stand on this subject, IL
is understood that ne has leaned to-
ward admitting raw wool duty free.
How completely the house leaders
are willing to defer TO his wishe% is
indicated by the fact that they will
accept this change in the bill If Mr..
Wilson insists
1t is becoming more and more an
parent that they intend to have the
measure start on its way through con-
gress bearing the full stamp of the
executive approval This is a brand
new way of framing a tariff bill. and
many of President Wilson's friends
fear that in shouldering the responsi-
hility for the measure at the very out
set he Is paving the way for much
trouble.
The forthcoming tariff bill is ex-
pected TO prove notable in the matter

carried out. sugar most kinds of
meats, steel rails. iron ore, lumber and

duty on grain and flour. but Presf-
dent Wilson seems to believe that the
tariff should be removed as far as
possible from the necesaries of life.

made nv New ENGLAND, members IL Is
likely that boots and shoes will be ad j..
mltted duty free. Agricultural i'm :
Elements have been put on the free
list as well as fence wire. concessions

posed revision is toward lower rates

Injuries as will not entirely cut off
imnortations
= The cotton schedule rates are slight
" higher than those contained in the
Underwood bill passed at the session
Of congress two years ago.
The provision of the bill for free
sugar is likely to prove one of the
most troublesome features. and the
indications now are that it will not be
able to pass the senate
An UNEXPECTED development in the
tariff situation today was the an
nouncement that Senator La F'oIlette,
Of Wisconsin, will submit a complete
plan of tariff revision of his own
making. .

the statutes apply to rates not law
fully and definitely fixed by contract
requiring the approval of the commits
sion. whereas the rates and privileges
here involved are fixed by a municipal
