Satisfied there is no doubt that the
tariff bill will be in the Senate Drac-
ticaNy in its present form within ten
days. President Wilson today began
seriously considering It's fate N the
Senate TIE President has accepted the
statements of his personal friends in the
upper chamber that there was little
danger to the bill there, but he also is
insistent that nothing be withheld from
him. The repeated declaration that
many of the Western Senators who are
opposed to free wool are planning TO
enter into an agreement with the sugar
Senators, whereby they will be able to
amend the bill 30 that a duty shall be
placed on wool and the free sugar at
the end OF three years provision
knocked out OF the bill. Is causing the
President some concern.
He will have a conference In the near
future with the Senators from nevada.
Arizona, Colorado. and Oregon. This
was arranged by Senator Newlands last
week.
The President believes he can make
these Senators see the force of his argu-
ments. He does not believe they will
care to antaGonize the will Of the ma
jority Of their party. But even at the
risk Of having his pet measure defeated
he will not back down.

NEW YORK. April 2s.-The Ameri-
can rights to the turtle culture treat
meni for tuberculosis, brought to this
country by DIR. +. F. Friedmann, have
been sold. This was admitted by DR..
friedman himself today, and confirmed
BY Morris Eisner. of the Eisner- Mendel-
Aohn Company. the firm which has pur-
chased the rights. DR.. Friedman said
the poor would be treated free.
DR.. Friedman ana Eisner were busy
today drawing up the final papers
clinchirg the agreement which has been
entered into, and. although no formal
statement was made, Ii Is understood
that the German savant Is to receive
$l25,00 cash and 81. 900 in stock of
thirty-six Friedman institutes which
are to be established I'm as many diff
ferent States in this country. The in
stitutes which are to be established are
to have a total capitalization of s., 100000.
DIR. Friedman was in high spirits to-
day as he and Eisner went over the
papers giving the latter's company 'he
sole right TO distribute the tuberculosis
treatment in this country. He was
pleased with the ARRANGEMENTS. but de-
clared that he had not entered into 1t
until assured that the persons TOO Door
to pay for treatment in the proposed
hospitals to be established would be
, treated without charge.
Poor Treated Free.
"One of the main contingencies on
which 1 agreed to enter into this ar
ransement was that the poor could tie
treated free" said DR.. Friedmanr.
THAT provision is in the contract
Both DIR. Friedman and Eisner in
sisted that it would be impossible to
outline the detailed arrangements
under which tuberculosis patients would
be treated under the contract until the
plan is definitely settled today. 1t Is
understood that the first institute will
be opened in New York within a few
DAYS. Others will be Established in all
States except those in whic htubercu-
losis is practically unknown. Dr.
Friedman, it is understood, will be
given a free hand In arranging for as-
sistants and other details in the actual
treatment of patients.
DIR. Maurice j. Sturm, who has been
DIR. Friedmann's assistant for the last
month, announced that he would be
at the head of the institute to be es-
tablished in New York city.

In anticipation of the protests from

the prospective Friedman institute ex-
planned that it would have been i'm

In regard to the Governments IN

associates said today tnat the only point
the Fedora; experts can pass judgment
on is the harrnlessness Of the treatment.
Cannot Exclude Remedy.
The Government cannot exclude the
remedy, II was said, even If 1t does not
live up to all that is claimde for 1t, so
long as no harm results from lts use.
Not only that, but If the Federal au-
thcrities make a public report on the
remedy and declare II a valuable cure
for tuberculosis. il viii be the frst time
that the Government has ever given OF
fetal praise to a proprietary druk OF
remedy. AS the remedy IS TO be manu-
factured in each State where an insti-
