Washington, D. c., Oct. 1.-The en-
tire conference report on the tariff bill
was laid aside for twenJy-four hours
in the senate as a result of protest
among the democratic senators which
resulted in the calling CT a party
caucus to go over the conference re-
port. before it should finally be acted
upon in the senate.
The hurriedly called caucus assemb-
led at IL. o'clock, but when the senate
met at noon no progress had been
made and the leaders agreed to lay
the bill aside, The caucus resumed
the work at 3 this afternoon.
The so-called insurgent forces, led
by Reed circulated a demand for it,
insisting that there were compromises
and amendments agreed to between
the conference committee and de-
manding further consideration by the
democrats before its passage.
Pomerene's objection to the action
of the conferees in dropping the tax
on grape brandy to fortify sweet wines
and Reeds criticisms of the decisions
of the conference committee on several
important tariff rates, were the chief
points brought up.
The bill left the house last night on
what the party leaders hoped would
be its last journey to the, senate. Aft
er many hours of debate the house
adopted the main conference agree
ment on the bill,' 254 to los, almost
a. strict party vote. and by this action
gave its endorsement to everything in
the measure except the cotton futures
tax.
At the end of a short but bitter fight
for the adoption of the report Repre-
sentative Underwood, the democratic
leader, succeeded in carrying through
the Smith Lever cotton futures tax
amendment by a vote of III to l61.
| Democrats and republicans alike
voted on this without regard to party
| and a large portion of the democratic
membership from southern states
8oined in the vigorous demand that
E3e whole subject be carried over to
81 lother session of congress. The cot
II "a futures tax question now rests
5tirely with the senate. The house
concurred in the Clarke amendment
put Into the tariff bill by the senate,
but added the Smith Lever Under
wood plan as another amendment.
Unless the senate will accept this
change, which has the endorsement
of the president the whole cotton
futures plans will again have to be
considered in the joint conference
committee and again reported to both
houses of congress for action.

SITUATION

Boston, Oct. IA short route to
the restoration OF public confidence
in the railroads Of the country would
be furnished by a positive declaration
by federal ami state commissions that
rates may be advanced, in the opinion
Of Howard Elliott, the new president
of the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford railroad. Mr.. Elliott made this
statement last night in an address be-
fore the Boston Chamber of Com
merce, in which he discussed the
future of the New Haven system. The
needs of railroads generally, however,
were dealt with at length. Mr.. Elliott
said in part: #
IF we are to continue to have
privately owned railroads supervised
and regulated by governmental
authority, and If we are to avoid
ownership by the government, the
owners and users of the railroads
must work together Personally. do
not believe in government ownership
in a country like the United States
where our political methods are still
in need of Improvement.
The policy of the government-na- :
tional and state - during the last
twenty-five years seems to have been
to decide rate questions in the great
majority of cases in such way that
rates were rarely advanced and gener-
ally were reduced and to introduce
rules, regulations and methods that
increased expenses.
The commissions naturally feel the
great pressure Of the millions Of users
of the railroads for reduced rates and
increased facilities. But If the rates
continue to decline, or even remain
on the present level and If expenses
are increased by higher wages and
costs of materials and by the intro
,duction of different appliances and
facilities far more rapidly than the
roads can obtain money. then there is
but one result for some OF the rail-
roads of the United States-and that.
is bankruptcy.
believe the commissions ers-who
have such great powers realize their
responsibility to the owners of the
properties as well as the users. and r
hope earnestly that they will give
practical evidence of their reaIization
by permitting some advances in rates
Should the commissions federal
and astate make positive declaration
that rates may be advanced so as to
permit the properties to meet all Of

est basis more favorable than Is now.

to her mission work.
Three Missionaries Stabbed.
Rev, L. Lillehei, president of the
Wahpeton Lutheran college, recently
received message from Tsaoyang
from Rev and Mrs. E. Aandahl and
Miss Ida Sather stating that they had
been taken prisoners by brigands and
held in the mountains, from which
they made their escape only after a
hair-rafsing experience during which
all three were stabbed. They finally
succeeded in reaching the Tsaoyang
mission, from which point they cabIed

Wahpeton Mission Headquarters.
Wahpeton is the headquarters of the
Tsaoyang mission, and the authorities
here have received no mail from the
members of the staff there for more
than a month. Information in the last
letters that were received stated that
Rev. Mr.. and Mrs. Holm, Rev. Mr.
and Mrs. Wordahl and Miss Sather
were at the Tsaoyang mission and the
others at nearby points. The frequent
outbreaks in that territory, however,
caused the other missionaries to go to
Tsaoyang, as intentions to do this
were indicated in the last letters re-
ceived. * rs % a-.'

Fancheng also conveyed the informa-

worse than death, eight Lutheran
Brethren missionaries, graduates of

Three of those believed captured

Chinese bandits after having been
made prisoners and carried away to
the mountain camp of the brigands.

A Mitchell automobile belonging to
John Wynan, of the Wyman Land
Co., was quite badly smashed this
morning when it rammed into a Ford
car at the corner of Second avenue
and Fifth street. The Ford driver
has string of scalps to his belt, hav-
ing run into three cars during the
morning it is said.
The driver of the Wyman car was
coming south on Fifth street, and the
Ford car was coming east on Second
avenue. The driver of the Ford car,
whose identity could not be learned,
seemed to have very poor control OF
the machine. He became confused at
the corner, and took the wrong side
of the street in making the turn. wy
mans driver applied the brakes, but
rammed the rear of the Ford, and the
front wheel of the Wyman car was
taken completely off, and the fender
badly bent. No one was injured. The
Fors car, though pushed several feet
by the impact was not damaged.
The driver of the Ford who it was
said was thought to be partially
intoxicated. is said to have smashed
into two other cars this morning. He
took the fender completely off ma
chine at the Great Northern depot
before he collided with the Wyman
car 1t is reported, though this was
not confirmed. that he skipped out af =
ter the last accident, and could not
be located. There was no number on
the machine.

SOWING BIG CROP
OF WINTER wheat

Scott City, Kan, Oct. 1.-More
wheat is being sown in this section of
Kansas, the scene of the recent
drouth, than for many years. The
farmers are jubilant because the re-
cent rains have thoroughly soaked the
sub-soil They say this will give the
wheat a chance to sprout and be in
good shape for the winter. During the
last few years the soil has been so
dry at sowing time that the wheat
failed to sprout.
Much Of the seed wheat received
here is, furnished by the Kansas
Farmers Seed Wheat club. Private
corporations also are supplying some
farmers. taking for their pay one
fourth of the coming crop. delivered.
In case of failure the settler is out
nothing except his labor.
