FREE WOOL GOODS
Clothing Duty Under New Tariff
Schedule Will Be From 20 to
IS Per Cent.

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-The
question Of dutiable wool manufac-
lures in the tariff bill was raised IN
the Senate Democratic caucus to-day
and brought a lengthy debate. Sena-
tor Chamberlain, Of Oregon, favored
the free listing of these commodities,
arguing this was only fair to the
public and the manufacturers with
raw wool on the free list.
The goods affected are stockings.
socks and blankets, women's and chill
dren's dress goods, ready-made cloth
ing and other articles Of wearing ap-
parel. Ad valorem rates, ranging
from 20 per cent on stockings to 35 pier
cent on ready made clothing are in
the bill as reported to the caucus.
At the recess of the caucus Sena-
tor Simmons announced that the
proposition to free list wool manufac-
lures was beaten by close vote.
I'VE expect to finish the hemp, silk,
paper and sundries schedules to-
night" said Senator Simmons, and

Church Bars Wedding

Breach of Promise Action Started,
Though Both Parties Declare They
Are Ready for Ceremony

ATCHISON, KANS., June 2S.-Al-
though both parties 70 a $4,000
breach of marriage contract suit filed
here recently say they are willing to
wed, the suit will so on.
Miss Mary Falk, Of Purcell. alleges
that she entered into a verbal con-
tract to marry William Burke, of
Troy, a few months ago.
Church officers say they will not
marry Burke because he is unable to
procure a sworn statement from his
mother in Ireland certifying to the
time of his baptism in the Catholic
Church. Burke says he will marry
Miss Mary Falk any time, and, in her
petition for the suit Miss Falk says
she is still willing to marry Burke
But as a priest will not marry
them, as both are unwilling to for
sake their religion, Miss Falk says
she can not consistently dismiss the
suit, although she still loves Burke
Miss Falks petition alleges that
Burke is wealthy.

State of Georgia, succeeding Joseph

Court. at 1902 o'clock.
Governor Slaton was indicted into
office in the presence Of a brilliant
assemblage Of Georgia men and wom-

friends members of the State Legis-

the recognition promised abroad to
the proposed institution, which rec
