| Washington, April o.-President
Woodrow Wilson today communicated
his first message to the SiXty-third

document dealing exclusively with
the needs for a thorough, moderate
and well-considered revision of the
tariff. The president drew attention

the present, any other legislation that
might divert the energies of congress

included no statistics. 1t was an en-

and ideas as to rates and duties, 1t
has been generally accepted, will be
contained in the tariff bill itself which
he is now considering in detail. The

SUFFRACETTES
TRY TO BLOW UP
DUDLEY CASTLE

Dudley, Eng, April S.--Miitant suf-
fragettes early today attempted to
blow up the ruins of historic Dudley
castle, parts of which date back to
the eighth century. The inhabitants
of the town were awakened by a loud
explosion coming from the direction
of the castle A large force of police
was dispatched there and on search
ing the surrounding grounds found
chemicals and blasting powder. Most
of the power had failed to explode and
the damage done was not serious.
Two old siege guns weighing a ton
each were thrown out of the embra-
sures of the castle by the explosion.
Many windows in group of ada
cent cottages We're broken, but none
of the inmates We're injured.
Votes for women" and Damn the
consequences" was painted on one of
the old cannon and "In honor of Mrs.
Pankhurst" on another.
FINE LITERATURE.
A quantity of suffragette literature
was scattered about. The police found
no clew to the perpetrators.
One account of the explosion says
the suffragettes loaded and fired one
of the big guns which was relic OF
the Crimean war. 1t was a Russian
cannon captured at the siege OF Sebas
topol.
Another campaign of destruction
was started by the militant suffragette

EXPLOSION SAVES" TOWNS.

Naco, Ariz., April S.-Possible de-
struction of the Mexican town OF
Naco, Sonora and the American town
opposite, was prevented this after
noon when a carload of dynamite
wrecked itself and exploded some dis
tance out of Naco, Sonora. The dyna-
mite loaded car had been started
down a grade by rebels, the purpose
being to explode and wreck the town
held by Ojeda's federal force. A brok-
en- rail is supposed to have caused the
car to leave the track before reaching
the town. The explosion was felt for
miles.
INDIANS IN BULL RING.
Naco, Ariz., April 8.-During the
early fighting it develops, a group OF
Yaqui Indians occupied the bull ring,
a half mile from town, but were driven
from the position by an assault OF
Oieda's regulars. This is held ac-
countable for the heavy fire falling on
the American side.

MAKING TARIFF
BILL a Law
IS PROBLEM

Washington. d. c., April S.--How Il
steer the new tariff bill through con
gress to the statute books is the
question now confronting Democratic
leaders of the administration.
Early today the Democrats met in
caucus but Immediately adjourned to
await the message of President Will
son. After providing for working
committees for the extra session,
they will consider the tariff bill as in
troduced by the ways and means com
mittee.
The principal problem confronting
the house leaders who are listening
to members of the senate for the
sake of harmony, is whether the bill
should be reported in the house in its
entirety or schedule by schedule, Dem
ocratic senators who oppose the
schedule with provision for free SUI
gar in three years, objected to consid-
GRAFTON of the tariff as one bill.
Though no decision has been reach
Nh, NllNit was q Plcp'biiiNN ''"oy ''i'''
the house caucus will determine final
ly to segregate the sugar schedule
taking up all the other schedules and
the income tax as one bill.
1t also was probable that the ques-
ton of the method of consideration
might not be determined by the eau
Gus but be taken up on the floor of the
house after the bill had been report
ed from the ways and means com
mittee.
Chairman Underwood has stated
that question need not be determined
at once, as the bill could be separat-
ed into sections any time the house
deemed it expedient to take such ac-
ton.
