ever, that the car was being op-
Grated at high speed.

TARIFF BILL GOES
To THE SENATE
Will Be Rushed From Now
On and Ready for Presi-
dent Sept. l.
SIX HOURS DEBATE
Senator McCmmber, Republican, Will
Make His Opening Speech
Today.

Washington, July 1.-The Under
wood Simmons Tariff bill was report
ed to the Senate this afternoon more
than three months after it's introduce
ton in the House More than two
months has been required in Demo-
cratic committees and causcus to so
frame the measure and reconcile diff
ticaIly a united party for the support
of the bill.
Senator Simmons. of North Caro-
lima, gave notice that he would call
the bill up for consideration July Is,
make it the unfinished business and
keep it continuously before the Sem
ate from that date AS Senator Nc
Cumber, Republican member of the
Committee, is leaving Washington for
several weeks, it was arranged that he
should be permitted to address the
senate Monday. This will be the OPP
ening speech and will relate almost
entirely to the agricultural schedule
in which Senator MeCumber has spec
ialized.
Chairman Simmons by way of en-
phasizing the fact that speed is eAs
pected, announced that the session OF
begin at noon and run until o'clock.
This means six hours of discussion
daily. The leaders hope thereby to
pass the bill, get it through confer
ence and to the president for his sig
nature by September 1. Republicans
agree that this will probably be done.
In the committee meeting this
morning the majority and minority
were each given five days in which
to file their reports on the bill.
Senator La Toilette, who has pre-
pared an entire substitute, also will
submit report at a later date. Dur y
ing the discussion Senator SmoOt,
speaking for the Republicans, said
there was no disposition and no in
tention of unduly protracting the
coming debate. 1t is their purpose to
fully present Republican views, but
the Democrats on the defensive and
on record, but when that Is done the
measure will come to vote and be
passed. Senator Smoot agreed with
Mr.. Simmons that this all ought to
be accomplished by September |.
For the first time in the history OF
Tariff making the senate committee
has reduced rates below the average
fixed by the House, in which all re-
venue measures originate. This re-
duction averages about per cent.
There has been very material adj
dition to the free list and substitu-
tional reductions throughout the
schedules with the single exception Of
cotton. This schedule appeals par
ticularly to the Southern men who
largely compose the committee as the
manufacture of cotton fabrics In the
South in recent years has grown In
to great industry.
The reason for these increases il
given as mistaken idea OF the House
committee In dealing with this sched-
ule and improper classification Of
cotton products. The bill differs from
| existing law not only in rates, but
in the method of imposing rates. the
ad valorem system having been sub
stituted throughout. with here and
there an exception, for the specific
rate method Of the Republicans

John H. Harrod, one of the best
known lawyers of Arkansas, had been
killed.
He was run down by an auto, at
Fifteenth and Broadway streets, by
]. E. Madding of Pine Bluff Ark.
Great excitement was caused in the
neighborhood of the fatal accident,
and within a few moments after the
fatality scores of people were on the
scene, many of them angrily denounc-
ing the driver of the big car that
claimed Judge Harrod's life.
James Coates, the 13-year-old son
of Attorney John Coates. of 1916
Broadway, was also injured, deep
cash being cut in his forehead AID
under the chin.
Latest reports from St. Vincent's
Infirmary is that he may not recover.
Madding Taken BY Police.
Madding was taken from the Jeff
Davis home by A. B. Chichester, claim
agent of the. street railway company,
and hurried to police headuarters.
Feeling was running high in the
neighborhood, and the street car Of
fetal thought there was danger of
violence.
Madding had been at the station
but a few minutes when Prosecutor
M. e. Dunaway arrived and filed
charges of murder and assault to kill
against him. The prosecutor recon-
mended that no bail be accepted.
Madding is still being held in the
detectives office. The officers may
sprint him out OF the city for safe
keeping.
In the car with Madding at the
time of the tragedy was Attorney Asa
Oracle of this city, and Miss Mary

Little Rock, Ark, July 11-With
Chief Justice E. A. McCulloch dis
senting the Supreme Court Friday
morning rendered an opinion in the
election contest case of Walls VS.
Brundidge, in which it reversed the
decision of Chancellor John E. Martin
eau, holding that the chancery court
has no jurisdiction in political party
matters.
The case was dismissed, but no
mention was made concerning the ac-
ton of Secretary of State Hodges in
certifying out the ticket without a
Democratic nominee. 1t is probable
that some action will yet be taken to
have the name of George w. Hays on
the ticket as the Democratic nominee,
in accordance with the action of the
State Democratic Central Committee,
which declared Judge Hays as the
nominee
Associate Justice Smith concurred
in the judgment of Associate JUS
tees Kirby and Wood, but dissented to
certain portions of the opinion.
Opinion Later.
Chief Justice McCulloch will later
render his opinion, which dissents as
to the Jurisdiction of chancery courts
in election matters. He holds that in
cases where sufficient proof of fraud
is shown, that the court has jurisdic-
ton
When noon arrived the supreme
court room was crowded with Brun-
dldge and Hays adherent, all anxious
and plainly nervous. The judges
illed in and the audience arose until
after the bailiff had declared the
court open. Justice Kirby then brief
" stated the nature of the opinion and
the crowd slowly filed out with the
exception of the attorneys for Brun-
dldge, who took the opinion, and
Judge Joe Stayton carefully read it
over to them.
The opinion of the court is a
lengthy one. 1t states in brief that
the Democratic party is an unincor-
porated body, and it has rules of it's
own for the settlement of any dispute
mat might arise in the organization.
me decision states that if any court
mas jurisdiction it is one of common
law, and not of equity.

In the excitement the police went
in pursuit of car that had dashed
away from the crowd, but learned at
! the next corner that the car had gone
for Drs Dibbrel and French.
Doctors Hurried to Scene
Several doctors hurried to the
scene as soon as they learned of the
tragedy.
Madding rushed into the Davis
home after he ran his machine a
block past the scene, turned it and
stopped at the curbing. He told Miss
Davis he wanted an ambulance
Healy & Roth were notified and an
ambulance was hurried out. Ambu-
lances from other firms soon arrived
While it was difficult for the police
or coroner to find any actual witnesses
of the tragedy, it was but a few min
utes after it happend until the street
was packed with white-faced silent
| men and sobbing women.
Gracie's Statement.
Attorney Asa Oracle this afternoon
made the following statement.
James Madding and myself were
driving east on West Fifteenth street
between Broadway and Arch, the
street car had just come to stop at
the west side of Broadway and Fiji
teenth street, and as the machine ap-
preached Broadway delivery wagon
pulled over in front of Mr.. Madding,
who, for the purpose of avoiding a
collisions, pulled his car over to the
left. alongside the street car, when
the machine struck the wagons side.
The person struck, Mr. Harrod and
Mr.. Coates son, stepped from behind
the car. The wagon was driving in
the same direction Madding was, and
my recollection is that the machine
hit the people, car and wagon all at
the same time, being caught in the
angle between the street car and the
wagon. Madding is nearly crazed
with grief and no one knows the
depth of his sorrow.
'He is a young planter, residing at
Reed Lake, below Pine Bluff, son
of George L. Madding, a retired plant
err, who resides at Pine Bluff
Madding Taken Away
A hurried consultation was held at
police headquarters shortly after
Madding had been brought in. 1t was
thought best to take the prisoner out
of town. and Sheriff Hutton was tele-
phoned to meet the city officers at
police headuarters.
F. E. Madding, brother of Madding
reached headquarters before 2 o'clock
and openly expressed fear that an eff
fort would be made to take his bro
Their away from the officers. He was
assured by the police that he would
be given every protection. Shortly
after Madding was hurried from the
small office of Chief Cogswell to the
large room in the detectives office.
All doors leading to the rooms were
kept locked, and admittance de-
MED everyone but detectives and Of
ficers from the sheriff's office.
The big police touring car was kept
in readiness for a run, and early this
afternoon Sheriff Hutton and several
deputies and detectives hustled Mad
ding into the car and drove away
from the city.
The police will make no statement
as to where Madding will be taken.
His Career.
Judge Harrod was about SO years
of age, and had resided at 1000 Broad
way for number of years. He main
