SAT DOWN ON
.STANDPATTERS

Washington, Nov. 2t.-The effect of
the new tariff law on the high cost of
living and on industrial conditions
furnished the material for some iiveIy
passages in the senate yesterday.
Senator Snoot produced pamphlet
setting forth that reduction of wool
and WOODEN goods would not result in
a material reduction in the cost of
clothing. Senator Stone of Missouri
him.
when the tariff bill was on the
floor" explained Mr.. Stone, "the re-
publicans were prophesying industrial
and financial disaster as result of the
measure. How can the senator. now
say that prices will not be reduced ?
We have seen none of the closed fac
tories, the ruined mills, or the sdualid
soup houses the senator painted so
vividly. Now, he tells us, the cost
of living is not reduced. Why, the
average stand-pat republican, If he
prays at all, is muttering supplications
to the skies day and night. that a
panic may fall upon the country. But
no panic is in sight. There will he no
panic. Let the senator withhold his
prophesies as to the cost Of living until
we can see the real results of the DEM
ocratic tariff. law o>
Senators S1noot and Gallinger denied
that as average stand-pat republi-
cans they were hoping for industrial
depression.

author of a bill TO exclude holding

the last conference.
It is understood that Mr.. Wilson will
confer with other, democratic leaders

the trust question and it is expected
that the address will make general
recommendations leaving to the COM
mittees of congress to work out the
specific remedies to be written in bills
on which the administration hopes to
procure a common agreement among
the leaders before the legislation is
launched.
Those who have talked with the
president on the trust question say
he has asked many questions concern
ing the inquiries heretofore conduct
ed, and apparently Is seeking to learn
to what extent the views of the demo
crat leaders agree with these he enter
tanned from his own inspection of the
problem.

Sensational Stories Unfounded.
Although no complete report of tho

understood that President Wilson rec
ognizes that such executions in tho
past have been the result Of a FREQUENT

armies.
The president received detailed
report from the consul at Torreon
describing the alleged barbaritios
there during the series of days before
and after the city was captured. The
report said that while many bad
Things occurred, much of what hap
pened was what naturally would be
expected when there is a. fringe or
disloyalty and treachery in the two
contending armies. While he con-
demns the inhumanity of the strife.
the president takes the view that when
one side or the other gets the upper
hand under these circumstances, they
naturally would avenge themselves
for disloyalty. He let it be known
that the consular report did not bear
out the many sensational stories ar
atrocities at Torreon and that Ann
ericans and foreigners generally were
not harmed.

Washington, Nov. 21.--The conven-
ing of the Mexican congress and
Huerta's reading of his message, Is
regarded by officials here as merely
carrying the situation 4 step further
along, not as events which forecast
any immediate step by the United
States.
The view here is that each day adds
to the steady. gradual disintegration
Of the Huerta regime. The officials
stated that should the Mexican con-
gress act on the English oil conces-
sions now pending, such acts would
be regarded as invalid, not only by the
United States. but also by England. A
perfect understanding is said to have
been reached on this point between
the United States and England.

Secretary Bryan yesterday request.

interests in the oil interests on the
east coast Of Mexico. He explained,
that request for the protection Of
the British interests in the neighbor-
hood Of Tuxpam and Tampico had
reached the state department through
the American embassy in London.
The secretary asserted that no In
structions had been given to Admiral
Fletcher to land marines and blue
jackets, but it was left to his discre-
tion to execute his orders.
Although the matter was treated at
the state and navy departments as of
small Importance, it was pointed out
that Admiral Fletcher may be con-
fronted with quite troublesome

Kansas City, Nov. 21.-Prof. Earl
Barnes in a lecture before the Mis-

matrons make the best possible teach
ers. "The present day educational
system puts a premium on the greatest
sin in the world, celibacy," said
Barnes, particularly is it wrong to
insist that only unmarried women be
allowed to teach in the public schools.
There are no better teachers for chill
dren than cultured married women
from congenial homes. -.

Duluth. Nov. 21.-That. many Of the

disaster Of the great lakes were due
to weak matches Is the statement made
by Capt. John Monaghan, United
States inspector Of hulls.
"The matches are too low" he said,
they are too nearly flush with the
deck and heavy seas weaken them SO
that they cannot hold. They should
have combing at least two and a
half feet high onto which the hatch
could be fastened with security. Under
existing circumstances there is not an
ore boat on the lakes which has
matches which fasten securely and
therefore there is not a boat that is
