WASHINGTON. ID. c.. Oct. THE
biggest problem before the admins
ration Is how to get the money to
meet Its program for the next Con-
sress. IL has been. and continues to
be. the occasion OF many White House
conferences. IL Is made the more
difncult OF solution on account OF
President Wilson's insistent attitude
that the present tariff schedules re-
main as they now are. His position
Is that until the present European
war Is over and normal conditions
have been restored II will not be pos
sible TO determine how readily or how
completely the business OF the coun-
try had adjusted itself to the new
conditions" imposed by the Under
wood tarjn law.
The Administrations view OF Il is
that to permit any tariff changes by
the forthcoming Congress would be A
confession or the charges, or some OF
them. at least, which the opponents
OF the present tariff law have urged
against II. II II not contended by
any official In authority that the I'm
derwood law has proved successful as
revenue producer. IL is agreed that
In that line II Is disappointment.
even IL II Is not admitted that Il is
failure. But President Wilson Is
not willing TO concede that it's disap-
pointing features were established be-
yond the possibility OF change prior
TO the outbreak OF the European war.
which Is the contention of all Republi-
cans and great many officials OF the
Democratic party. The European war.
President Wilson holds. prevented the
law having a fair try-out.
The urge for tariff changes by the
next Congress. which brought the
question 10 the serious attention OF the
administration. came from potential in
fuences within the Democratic party.
Had IL been from the opposition party
no attention would have been paid IL.
That was to be expected. II is a
Democratic demand that has brought
the matter up to a place where II
necessitated the President taking a
positive stand against any revision of
the Underwood schedules. Despite
the known attitude of the chief exc
cutive the pressure from that source
Is still being applied.
Fight for Sugar Tariff.
The Louisiana delegation in con.
gress 10 still persistently keeping up
the fight for tariff legislation on the
sugar schedule. They are backed by
solidly united sentiment in the
state. They want the three cents
tariff on sugar restored. but will re-
luctantly compromise for less. They
VIII grudgingly accept the retention
OF the remaining one cent a pound
tariff on sugar. which comes off next
May. under the Underwood law. II
they can't get any better terms. The
most effective protest against The
present tariff law that has been made
by Democrats was made in Louisiana.
They elected a Democrat. running as
a Progressive, 10 the House OF Repre-

JEWEL BAG LOST ON ROAD.
Dropped from Acknowledgement
Jewels Valued at Over $1,000.

LENOX, Mass, July 23.-Mrs. A.
NJ. Tinker of Boston lost a green bag
from an automobile between East Lee
and Lenox yesterday afternoon con
tanning jewels valued at more than
$1,000. No description of the jewels
was given out last night, but auther-
tiles along the route were notified that
a suitable reward would be paid for
the return of the bag and the jewels.
Mrs. Tinker was travelling from Bos-
ton with Mr.. and Mrs. James McLeon
of Boston.
After crossing Jacob s Ladder she
took the bag from her arm and laid
it upon the seat of the automobile,
She forgot the bag until she arrived
at the hotel. 1t probably had been
tossed out of the car on some rough
part of the highway. Two motorey-
Eclists from Lenox went over the road
last night but failed to find the miss
! ing bag.

Firing Occurred During the Night at Bayonne, But
Sheriff kinkead Believes the Situation is Well
in Hand Strikers Committee Invited to Police
Headquarters

NEW YORK, July Comparative
quiet prevailed at Bayonne, n j., today
around the plants of the Standard Oil Com
pany and the Tide Water Oil Company,
which have been closed because of the
strike of 1000 men in the Standard Oil
works and the resultant disorder, during
which three men were killed and scores
injured
Firing occurred during the night, but the
police said this was chiefly due to some
false alarms among the guards
Sheriff Kinkead and Commissioner of
Public Safety Wilson said today that they
believed the situation was we'll in hand
and that there would be no need of
troops.
The sheriff invited the strikers commit
tee to police headquarters and asked them
to counsel the men strongly to avoid fur
ther disorder by keeping off the streets.
He said he believed the strike could be
settled without further bloodshed. All
the saloons in Bayonne were ordered

report a victory. On the Narew front
to the north there has been a lull in
the fighting, but the renewed activity
of the Germans from Kovno to the
Baltic has developed into an important
engagement, rs a result of which the
Russians have been forced to retire.
Interest here in the fate Of Warsaw
is undiminished but the stubborn re-
aistauce of the Russians is doing much
to relieve the depression Of the Eng
lish. This feeling of relief enables the
public to pay some attention to other
battle fronts.
The allies report minor successes al
Mesopotamia and in the Dardanelle5
Along the Franeo-Belgian and
Italian fronts there is but little change
so far as the official reports show, al
though fierce fighting has taken place
at a few points.
