 Tariff Argument.
 Discussion of war revenue resolu- tion in the senate resolved itself into @ tariff argument, republicans as- saulting the Underwood law xs made quate and condemning the general fiscal policy of the administration Senator Underwood of Alabama, in his first senate speech, vigorously up- held the law, which bears his name, and challenged republicans to com pare it with the Payne -Aldrich tariff.
 Senator Pensore of Pennsylvania, who led in the minority attack on the resolution, interrupted Senator Under woods speech to draw a picture of idle men in his state during his cam paign for reelection last year. He said the present prosperity in the steel business was due to the war and inn mense purchases by belligerent gov ernments.
 Underwood Comes Back.
 ''The senator from Pennsylvania" said Senator Underwood in reply, "has made clear his belief then that the depression which followed the terror of the first few months of the war was due entirely to the dem ocrat- ic administration but that the present prosperity alone is dut to the war.
 "This discussion today, while not t. luminative on the fiscal condition of the country, has clearly defined the issues between the two great parties on questions of legislation. MT. Pen rose says we are committing a crime against the American people by re- ducing the custom house taxes, and replacing them with taxation resting

ARTILLERY FIRE DOES
 N0T EFFECT THE EAR

BERLIN, Jan. 2O-(Correspondence of the Associated Press)-The normal ear is not affected in any noticeable degree by the noises of even the heaviest artillery, according to con- clusions based upon a long study of artillerymen by Berlin ear special ist.
 Of 51 artillerists observed for a long period by this specialist none ex- hibited any objective symptoms, and only four complained of subjective in- iuries, mainly ringing in the head" In investigations covering whole year, only one case of burst eardrum was found
 The ordinary recruit who serves only two years in peace times in the heavy artillery, but rarely incurs any last ing injury to his ears. Officers who have served many years not infre- quently leave the service with chronic partial deafness or ringing in the ears. Investigation appears to show, howev- CT, that these sufferers did not have normal organs when they enlisted

OPERA MUST WAIT
 SINGERS AT FRONT

PARIS, Jan. 2O-(Corresa aondence
 of the Associated Press) )-Monsieur Dalimier, under-secretary of Fine Arts, and Monsieur Jacques Rouche, the new director of the Opera, have de cided that the difficulties in the way of an early reopening are too great. Half of the stage hands have been mo- bilized, and the staging of most of the operas is such a completed mat ter that the breaking in of so great a number of new men is nearly impos- sible at this time. Furthermore there is not a single one of the lead ing tenors left, all having been called to the front.

CAPITALISTS TO CONSERVE THE
 U ] R N

AMSTERDAM, Feb. 6-For the con seryation and efficient distribution of the corn supply in German. the gov ernment has decided to form a stock company with a large capital, which will acquire all the available corn and store 1t until May, before which time 1t is said no sales can take place.
 The stockholders are principally large capitalists and towns with a population of 100000 or more. Ac- cording to the Franfurter Zeitung, the directors will be representatives of the state and industrial leaders. The company has the right to condemn and purchase at fair price, any supplies of corn in Prussia. The stock is to pay dividends limited to five per cent, and any profits remaining beyond this per centage are to go to charity.
 The motive for this move of the Prussian government is stated as the fear that. notwithstanding the ample ness of the harvest, there may be a critical period before the garnering of the harvest of 1915.

GERMANS D|sAPPROvE
 MAl|GNING ALLIES

BERLIN, Jan. 2O-(Correspondence or the Associated Press) 1.-The Baya. rlan war ministry, in a circular warn. ing newspapers against disregarding the rules of the censorship, says of q particular case:
 The Munich-Augsburg Evening Ga zette published in Number 325 an ar ucle written by Hans Bayerl In Rat isbon, entitled 'England's and Frances .Colored Troops in which horrible atrocities were reported. The official investigation has disclosed that the author has not been able to adduce the slightest proof for his assertions. lnasmuch as the populace Is needless ly aroused by such thoughtless arti. cles, written only for the sake of coarse sensation, the editors of this newspaper must be strongly warned against giving space to such artk cles hereafter"
 While the authorities of the other German states have not taken simi lar action in regard to atrocity tales such stories have practically disap peared from all but few of the less responsible papers. A great part oi the credit of this saner mood now pre- vaillng in this regard is given to the Socialist paper Vorwarts, which from the first set out to show the ground lessness of atrocity tales.

A|SNE TEACHER |S MARTYR TO
 CAUSE

PARIS. Jan. 2O-(Correspondence of the Associated Press)-The story has reached Paris of how a school teacher sacrificed himself to save the mayor. cure and a number of citizens of his village in the Aisne, few miles from the Belgian frontier.
 After the battle of Charleroi. the Germans captured the village of D. without firing a shot, and a company of the Russian Guards made it their headquarters for two days. Toward the end of the second day, while the Germans were preparing to leave the village, a shot rang from no one knows where. The German officer in com. mand hastened at once to the mayor A dozen hostages were required upon the spot, to be shot before nightfaIl If the guilty man was not denounced or did not give himself up. No one had been hit by the shot, but the off. cer declared he had heard the bullet whistle close to his head.
 Very we'll" said the mayor. "you want hostages. Here am to begin with"
 And l, also" declared the cure.
 Three of the older inhabitants of the village came forward. which made five. Then the Germans took seven more inhabitants into an open field near the church. The firing souad was ready. and the hostages lined up against a wall, when the school teacher. Nj. Michon ran up
 q am the guilty one," he said sim. ply. Yes. 1t was who fired inst now. Release these men and take me- am ready; I'm not afraid to die"
 Several of the villagers present had seen Michon leave his school house With his pupils at the exact moment when the shot was fired. But he persisted in his declaration and at T o'clock in the evening he was shot

FhIRBANk SAN INvENTS
 4 NEW SCRAPER

August and Alex Hanot, of Fair banks. are working on a new inven- ton in scrapers that is commanding the closest attention of mechanics and mining operators in the Panama val ley The invention of the two broth CTS gives every indication of becom- ing of great importance to the north ern mining industry as in fact to all kinds of mining where scraping is an essential operation
 This new invention is labor, fuel
 nd cable saver over the old slip style or the later improved Bagley, and it is believed will reduce the cost of operation in open-cut work perhaps as much as one-third. It can be operated by one man where two and three are now necessary. allow. ing the saved labor to be used else where around the ground on other work Instead of the cable wearing out in one season, it will last at least three, and the reduced friction is sc great that the fuel economy under the boilers will be the greatest sav ing of all.
