years ago, Julia Schlossen became
hysterical while serving luncheon to
her mistress and confessed that 1t
was she who started the blaze.

had not suspected the servant girl,
and had thought that the fire was
kindled by q man.
Anna was taken before Peter Bar
clay. Justice of the peace at Dayton

sion. She was then sent to the state
Home for Girls. where she had been
confined for three years as incorrig'-

months ago. There she will remain
until the authorities act on her case.
Julia was very fond of the dog
which was chained in the barn at the
time of the fire.

dry schedule of the tariff law. with
its large number Of varying articles
that fan outside the other thirteen

resentatives of interests involved, and
there was formidable list of wit
nesses that promised TO occupy not
only all day, Bat possibly tonight.
Most of the witnesses want reten-
ton of the present tariff on the
products Of their industries The
testimony all through the tariff hear
ings has been literally sprinkied with
politics, the Democratic members OF
the committee contending for the
principles of tariff for revenue only,
with occasional free trade sug-
gestions, and the Republicans in
tending in their examination OF wit
nesses 10 bring out the efficacy of the
doctrine of protection for home in
dustries and the working operation
of the Payne-Aldrich tariff law.
The remaining hearings will be the
free list, the miscellaneous pro-
visions ana the administrative
features of the tariff.
Majority Leader Underwood was
the butt of much good natured rail-
lery today as the result Of the dis
closure at the tariff hearing yester-
day that he was partial to headgear
made in Italy. He refused to be agi-
tated
I'VE are not going 70 write a pro-
hibitive tariff, said Mr.. Underwood.
