Washington, July IA searching in
vestigaton of the so-called "under-
ground system" at the capitol, not only
BY the Senate lobby committee, but by
select comittee of the House, promises
TO be the first result Of the sensational
charges by Martin NJ. Mulhall, who
claims to have been the general deid
lobbyist" for the National Association
of Manufacturers.
Mulhallss startling allegations that
representatives and senators and high
officials OF the government had been
reached" or influenced that the
lobby" conducted its operations from
room in the capitol, paid money TO
employees there, took an active hand IN
making up committees, and went out
actively in the political campaigns to
get at congressman who opposed legisla-
ton the lobby wanted, have thrown
Congressional circles into an uproar.
Congressman named in the Mulhall
charges are issuing statements, some OF
them denouneing the allegations as
malicious lies" Speaker Clark last
night issued statement confirming the
charge that the "lobby" had worked for
MS ueitdb.
President Wilson yesterday discussed
the Mulhall charges briefly with the
Washington correspondents and said he
believed the lobby on tariff legislation
had ceased to "embarrass anybody but
itself"
When the president made his first dee
laration that "a numerous and insidious
lobby" was operating in Washington, he
had no idea that such charges as made
BY Mulhall would be brought out. but
he added he was in favor of investigat
ing all charges, and had no doubt the
Senate committee, would have free
hand.
It was decided that no meeting of the
senate lobby committee viii be held
until July s. Charges by Chairman
Lovett Of the Union Pacific board tina,
certain men in New York have been i'm
per sonating congressman and in which
the names of Edward Lauterbach and
David Lamar were brought in, will first
be taken up and the Mulhall charges
will follow.

CAUCUS is
CLOSING
Tariff Bill for the Finance
Committee To-
day
DEBATE ON
INCOME TAX
May Delay Report in the
Senate Beyond To-
morrow

Washington, D. c., July Finishing
touches to the schedules of the tariff
bill were considered yesterday by the
Senate Democratic caucus, which is en-
deavoring to complete its work by to-
night, that the revised measure may go
to the entire finance committee and be
reported to the Senate by Thursday.
Unfinished portions of the sundries
schedule and free list, with changes
agreed upon by the finance committee
majority Sunday were reviewed by the
caucus in the hope that the administra-
tive and income tax sections could be
reached. Chairman Simmons of the fin
ance committee. expected that the eau
Gus would develop little opposition to
postponing operation of the sugar sched-
ule until March 1914, or to the change
of date for the income tax from Jan l.,
1918. to March | of this year.
After prolonged discussion of an
amendment by Senator Pomerene to put
a countervailing duty of eight per cent
on agricultural implements, the caucus
voted by an overwhelming majority to
leave those articles on the free list UNI
restricted.
The caucus completed all the sched-
ules except the last two paragraphs of
the free list which will be passed on
later. An amendment was adopted to
provide thorough inspections Of meats
entering American ports, unless subject
ed to similar inspection when exported.
An amendment by Senator Johnson
of Maine putting cedar logs on the free
list was adopted. Bran and wheat
screenings, which the committee mad
vertently had left on the free list I'M
restricted, were transferred to paragraph
including wheat and all products Of
wheat which are free listed but with
countervailing duty provision appended.
Senator Simmons said he hoped the eau
Gus would complete the administrative
and income tax sections last night or
to-day and that he expected to report
the bill to the Senate at the first meet
ing aftY July q.
The Democrats in the Senate ran
against snag late yesterday when they
took up the report on the income tax
section Of the bill The various exemp
tions were attacked and the debate that
followed apparently was endless and
there seemed no prospect the considera
tion of the bill would be completed by
tonight.

BRILLIANT PLAYING
WON FOR McLOUGHLIN
Young American Defeated Parke, the
Irish and Scottish Tennis Cham
pion, at Wimbledon.

Wimbledon, England, July Maurice
+. Mclaughlin of San Francisco, the
young American lawn tennis champion,
yesterday brilliantly cleared another
fence barring his way to the title of all
England champion, which is practically
accepted as the worlds lawn tennis
championship. He beat the formidable
j. c. Parke, Irish and Scottish cham
pion, by three straight sets in the semi
final round. The scores were Ga, rs,
Ga
Americans on the ground were ready
before the match to wager the Statue of
Liberty on the chances of their compan-
ion, and as soon as the match started,
there was never doubt as to who would
win.
No match in recent years so stirred
the lawn tennis world, and fully 5000
enthusiasts gathered to witness the
great struggle.
The American champion, with his ter
rife hitting, was too fast for Parke, and
his pantherl like activity, specially seen
during the second set, drew roars of APP
plause from the excited spectators.
Parke started by taking the first
game. which he finished with winning
net cord stroke. Mclaughlin came close
to the net, and using his favorite cross
shots, quickly established lead of three
games to one Then the Irishman raj
lied, and with a series of beautiful pass
ing drives crept up to 81. As soon,
however, as the Californian fell back and
adopted his opponents tactics he won
the next game and the set.
The second act opened evenly, each
winning his service until the seventh
game, when Mclaughlin won on the
Irishman's service. This and the follow
ing games were full of excitement
Roars of applause followed the American
as he darted from one side to the other
Of the court. again and again making
unplayable shots Parke picked up spas
medically, but from the tenth game he
appeared out -classed, and Mclaughlin,
remaining at the net, had his man all
over the court before scoring his winning
smash.
In the third set, Parke again won the
opening game, but Mclaughlin equalized
with his service. The American appeared
to be taking things easily. He missed
lot of chances and seemed to be playing
with his opponent, but reserve Of SUI
periority was always forthcoming at
crucial moments

citation Of Manufacturers, announced
yesterday that a letter had been sent
To Chairman 0verman of the Senate

L.icoriee Root.

Very few people, says writer In the
Wide World Magazine, have any idea
where the familiar licorice root comes
from. As a matter of fact, the bulk of
ii halls from Syria. Here 1t is gathered
and piled into great stacks, where 1t re-
mains until it is thoroughly dry. II is
then taken to the factory to undergo
certain processes. The finished prod
uct is used for havoring confectionery
and beer, as veil as entering into the
makeup of many brands of tobacco.
Some idea of the extent of the indus
try may be gathered when it is stated
that on the average 5000 tons of dry
licorice root is shipped from Aleppo
annually, while Bagdad yields another
5000 tons, Antioch 1000 and Damas-
Gus 500 tons.
