100000 bushels by Kempner was
mostly bought back on a small de-

DEATH OF BIG TIM"
CAUSES ADJOURNMENT

Just before adjournment Of the House
last night Representative Robert H. Gid.
dins Of Niagara Falls N. Y, informed
the House of the death of big Tim"
Sullivan.
There had been not a little discussion
of the proper observance of the death of
Mr.. Sullivan by reason OF the fact that
he had not been nominally upon the rolls
of the House during the present Con-
gress, never having presented himself to
take the oath. There were several con-
ferences with Speaker Clark and the de-
cision was reached that under thescir-
cunrstances, and in view of Mr.. SullI-
vans previously uninterrupted Ill
health, his nonappearance to be sworn
at the bar of the House could properly
be ignored.
Mr.. Giddins introduced the usual reso-
luton expressing the regret of the House
at~receiving intelligence OF the demise of
a member, and providing for the appoint
ment of a committee Of twenty members
of the House to join with the Senators
designated by the Vice President to at
tend the funeral services. The resolution
further expressed the condolences of Mr..
Sullivan's former colleagues to his fam
lily.
Following this resolution, which was
promptly passed, Mr.. Giddins introduced
a second resolution which provided that
the House do now adjourn out of respect
to the memory of its fellow-member."

the Rival Producers.
FIGURED AT sS,OOO,OOO

About eight million dollars in revenus
was cast out Of the tarin bill yesterday.
according to the estimates of the experts
Of the Senate Finance COMMITTEES, when
the conferees from the two houses de-
cided to discard the two amendments put
into the bill in the Senate imposing taxes
on wine production.
One of these amendments restored the
tax Of S1.10 gallon on wine spirits used
IN the California wine industry in the
fertilization of pure sweet wines This
tax was ordered rebated to the CALIFORNIA;
wine producers under a provision Of thsa
Mckinley tariff law.
This year an amendment was added tor
the tarifr bill in the Senate Finance
Committee at the suggestion Of Senator
Pomerene OF Ohio, restoring the tax and
estimates made, by the Internal Revenue
officers of the government, which wers
that over 100000 would be derived from
the restoration of this tax But a pro-
test came up from the Pacific Coast.
Protest Is Made.
The whole California delegation Joined
in the protest, declaring that It would
ruin the California sweet wine industry.
Meanwhile, the California men insisted
that the legislation restoring the tax
emanated from the Ohio wine producers
and the California men got Dusy Dy way
Of reprisals and succeeded IN having put
into the bill a special tax on the class
of wines produced in the northwestern
section OF Ohio. This tax was to be
