SENATE ADDS a AMENDMENTSTO
THE FORDNEY TARIFF MEASURE:
SUPPORTERS HAVE A MAJORITY
Senator Penrose, Who Is Plotting the Bill, De-
clares 1t Has Good Prospects of Passing
Next Week, Until Which Time 1t Will Be
Technically Under Consideration.
fBv THE ASSOCIATED PRESS, ,

Washington, Feb. 4,-The senate
got down to business with the
Fordney emergency tariff bill to-
day and before the session, which
convened at Ii o'clock, ended four
amendments had been adopted.
Votes on the amendments where
a record was made, showed sup
porters of the bill to have a ma
jority ranging from 10 to 1S.
AS the situation stood tonight it
appeared that the bill would be for
the most part actually.I as well as
technically. under consideration
until final vote is reached. Sem
ator Penrose. republican of Penn
sylvaaia, in charge of the bill, de-
clared that it had good prospects
of passing next week,
Under the program the early part
of the sessions probably will be
devoted to consideration of appro-
priation bills, but later the tariff
measure will be debated. as it was
today, to the exclusion of all else.
The committee amendment TO
establish an import duty Of 40 cents
a bushel on wheat was twice adopt
ed today. 1t was first taken up
with only nine senators in the
chamber and accepted without a
dissenting voice. Then Senator
Harrison, democrat. Mississippi,
one OF the bitterest opponents of
the measure. discovered what had
happened and forced a call for a
quorum. He said he was under the
impression the senate still was con-
sidering a minor Indian bill.
After the quorum call and an
hour of desultory debate, Senator
McCumber, republican. North Da-
kota, asked for reconsideration of
the wheat amendment and it again
was agreed to by a vote of 3S to 2S.
The amendment, also from the
committee, exempting from tariff
duty rice to be used in the manu-
facture Of canned goods likewise
was adopted.
The committee amendments fix
ing duties of 2 cents a pound on
fresh and frozen meats and Of rs

fore the lights were in order and
in the meantime the four prison
ers had a good start.
Only -Four Believed Missing.
AS soon as the lights were re-
paired, and the confusion resulting
when the prison was pitched in
darkness, a check was made and
it was discovered that four men
were missing.
Il believe all others are account
ed for but ] can't be certain just
yet" Mr.. Dugan said.
The four prisoners were wear
ing oyeralls and jumpers when
they escaped, Warden Dugan said.
1t is possible that they have OBJ
( tanned other clothes or arranged
with friends outside to have their
clothing hidden. The overalls and
shirts and underclothing worn by
the men all bear their prison num-
bers. the warden said.
AS quickly as possible, accord
ing to Mr.. Dugan, a search was
organized. All available guards
started on the man hunt in all di-
rections from the prison walls.
Dogs were led forth and after
some search, a trail was struck. 1t
is probable, however, Mr.. Dugan
said, that this trail accounts for
but one of the men as they un-
doubtedly separated after landing
on the outside of the walls, he be-
lieves.
News Is Wired Out.
Wires were sent out by the war
den to all adjoining towns and au-
thorities furnished with a descrip-
ton of the four escaped conyicts

There was an ages old reproach
that an Irish parliament in Dublin
could not be trusted to do justice
to any Protestant minority. Sir Ed
ward continued. adding: Let us
take care this reproach cannot be
made against your parliament.
From the outset let them see that
the Catholic minority will have
nothing to fear from a Protestant
majority"
Regarding talk of united Ire
land. Sir Edward said:
ulster can be won by sincere
professions of the same ideals of
loyalty to the throne, pride in the
throne and acceptance of those
principles which have made the
country great throughout the world,
but she will never be coerced.
There can be no possible COM
meneement of an approach between
the north and south of Ireland un-
til the south and the west abandon
the horrible methods they have
pursued and now are pursuing"
Sir James Craig, in acknowledge
ing his election TO the leadership,
declared that his policy in the fu-
ture would be that of the past-no
surrender to the disintegrating
forces in Ireland.
Il am an Orangeman to the heart
and always shall be an Orangeman
no matter what my position" said
Sir James, Il shall uphold the
same standards which have brought
me to the proud position in which
you have placed me today"
Sir James said there was steady
uphill work in order to secure for
."our children the heritage Sir Ed
ward Carson has handed down."
Speaking later in an informal
way the newly elected leader said
he anticipated the king would come
to open the new Ulster parliament

SIN making them" he added,
I'VE sought no national advantage
for ourselves. We proposed a solu-
ton in which we should have fore
gone claims larger than any re-
mitted to US, and we proposed it
because We believed 1t would be
in the interest of good relations
amongst peoples the rehabilita-
tion of national credit and the
restoration of international trade.
"Our great international debt is
due to the obligations we under
took on behalf of our allies. If we
had had only ourselves to eonsid-
er we should have been practical
ly free of external debt at the
present time"

Consideration of the duty on
meats brought from Senator I'm
derwood of Alabama democratics
| leader, an attack on what he deN
scrbed as the iniquities of the pro-
posed legislation. He assaulted the
republican position. inquiring..
whether republican senators hads
| absolutely forgotten that the gov
ernment had need for revenue"
and whether the present bill could
be accepted as an indication OF
their intention to build a tariff wall
about the country during the extra
session. .
The Fordney bill, Mr.. Underwood
asserted. could be construed as none
other than a consumption tax. He
accused supporters of the bill of
being willing to legislate money
from the consumers into the pock-
cts of spectators and quoted fig
ures from a summary of tariff in
formation, compiled by the repub-
mittee, to show that imports so
much complained of exist only in
the air."
The program of the leaders to
attempt the fixing of date for a
vote went into the discard. tempo
rarily, with the arrival of Senator
Williams, democrat, Mississippi
who renewed his declaration that
he would not be bound by any pri-
vate agreements. Mr.. Williams
spoke heatedly of Vaccinations
going on around here" adding:
Il would be a fool to agree to
something l do not believe In and
something the result of which L

and asked to keep a close watch
for them. The railroad stations at
Santa Fe and Lamy were notified.
Work was being rushed last night
to get photographs and descrip-
tions of the prisoners ready for
this mornings mail to all points
in New Mexico and surrounding
states.
Miller, who is in solitary con-
finement for the suspected part he
played in the escape, is described
by Warden Dugan as a dangerous
man." He is said to have made
several attempts to escape, once
being recaptured more Than four
miles from prison.
Miller has charge of a. shed
where there is a crushing ma
chine and 1t was in this shed that
the four prisoners who escaped OBJ
tanned the ladder with which they
scaled the walls. Warden Dugan is
not certain that Miller built the
ladder. but he believes that if he
did not do this, he permitted some
of the others to do it and perhaps
assisted them and kept the ladder
concealed during the day.
Escaped Men Described.
The following descriptions of
the escaped prisoners were phoned
to the albuquerque police depart

TREASURY OFFICIALS
REFUSE TO COMMENT

Washington, Feb. (by the AS
sociated Press )--Treasurv officials
refused to comment tonight on the
statement of the British chancellor
of the eXchequer, j. A. Chamber
lain, that the United States govern
ment refused to accept British
proposals that the inter-allied
debts arising from the world war
be cancelled.
No mention has ever been made
in official circles here of any pro-
posal officially rendered by Great
Britain for cancellations of the in
ter-allied debts, but it Was recalled
tonight that Sir George Paish, the
British financial expert who Wis
tied the United States a year ago,
put forward some such proposal.
His mission was not regarded as
official and consequently his pro-

That the escape was carefully
planned is the opinion of p. j.
Dugan, warden of the penitentiary.
In a long distance telephone con-
versation with the Morning Journal
last night MIR. Dugan declared that
Raymond c. Miller. prisoner from
Albuquerque and serving a term for
assault and robbery here. is in soli-
tary confinement. He is believed
to have aided the escape and 1t was
in the mill shack where Raymond
works that the ladder used In seal
ing the wall was built, Mr.. Dugan
said.
Two From Grant County.
The four men who escaped, Roy
Wilcox, serving two and a half to
three years for grand larceny in
Otero county; Robert Tucker. serv-
ing from two to three years for as
sault in Grant county; Edward
Carr. serving from two to three
years for larceny of an automobile
IN Grant county, and Allen, had
been working later than the usual
quitting hour, which is about 4:30.
They slipped away from the sight
of guards and went to the engine
room.
The four attacked the engineer
and Carr struck him in the head
with pick handle. stunning him.
Wilcox then seized a sledge ham
mer and smashed the switch board,
putting the entire prison In dark
ness. In the confusion that follow
ed the four made their way to the
mill crusher building. where the
ladder had been secreted.
1t was probably ten minutes be-

posal did not receive official con-
sideration.
Great Britain's Indebtedness, of
about $4,000 100000, is far larger
than that of any of the allied coun-
tries, but this is explained by the
fact that Great Britain herself was
a creditor country and disbursed
American funds to her other allies.
When Senator Knox of Pennsyl-
vania soon after President Wilson'S
return from Paris, introduced in
the senate a resolution proposing
a remission Of the Indebtedness Of
all the allied governments to the
United States on the theory that
the allies had been greater suffer-
ers from the war; British public
opinion as interpreted here. was
quickly recorded as declining to
accept any such remission, So far
as is known, American officials are
advised that such is still the posi-
tion of the British government, al
though that government has let it
he known that it would accept a.
suspension for a few years OF the
collection of interest on it's indebt-
edness to this country.
1t is the expectation here, how
ever that when Ambassador Ged-
des returns about the end of the
present month from his Gudden
trip to England, he will be accom-
panied by Lord Chalmers. 1t is
also understood that they will be
charged with full authority to ne.
gotiate with American treasury Of
ficials for a conversion of the pres
ent British Indebtedness, which
now stands in the form of de-
mand notes, into long time, perma-
nent obligations at a rate of inter
est corresponding to that set forth
in the Liberty bond issues.

BRUSSELS MEET
CBy The Associated l-rass.)

Berlin, Feb. At was officially
stated today that Germany has
declined to attend the allied finan-
cial conference of experts to be
held in Brussels beginning next
Monday. The ground taken is that
Germany requires her financial ex-
perts to remain at home for the
present.
A London dispatch Thursday
night said DR.. Karl Bergman,
chief of the German reparations
commission. had telegraphed NJ.
Delacroix. president of the allied
conference, requesting that the
Brussels conference set for Febru-
ary Z be postponed until after the.
London conference in order to per-
NIT the German experts to confer
with their government.

GERMAN PATENTS IN UNITED STATES SHOW MILITARY AMBITIONS
Republican A. p. Leased WireI


 WASHINGTON, May 20.-Inves- tigation of patents and applications for patents recently filed in this contry by German citizens and as signed to Frederick Krupp. German munitions maker, reveals the rather striking circumstance" that of the 22S such patents and applications so far investigated, the majority have to do with military appliances, the war department announced tonight.
 The investigation disclosed" said the statement, authorized by Secre- tary Weeks, rather striking circum- stances in view of the conditions which Germany is supposed to ob- serve as to disarmament and the manufacture of war materials under her treaty obligations. Of the 22s patents and applications for patents assigned to Krupp, 26 were found to relate to artillery fire control de- vices, IS to electric control appara- tus, to fuses and projectiles. to gas engines, IT to guns. 3 to pro- cesses for the production of metals, 10 to naval fire control devices. 3 to proiectiles and devices for hand ling them.

 WASHINGTON, May 20-American Il railroads must ''get ther costs down and must not be tied up so tight" if they are to be placed on a profitable basis, President A. H.

 Labor costs fuel costs tax costs, should be reduced" he said, while the interstate commerce commission should give the roads more rope"
 Rates have to be adjusted" he continued, because we have listed all of these rates by percentage for the last three years or more and any one knows that if you will take 75 per cent of IS cents. and 75 per cent of 20 cents and jack them all up the same you are going to get the build ing pretty well odt of balance and 1t is going to tip over after while Therefore. we have got to go back, and scientifically or properly at any rate, readjust these rates"

Says High Freights Curtails Marketing
 Of Colorado Crops
TRepubIican A. p. Leased Wire1


 DENVER, Colo, May 30-- The hearing on freight rates as affect ing fruit, vegetables and farm pro- ducts in Colorado, held before Henry T. Ford, special representative of the interstate commerce commission, was brought to a close here today and the livestock situation was taken up immediately.
 At the conclusion of the hearing, Merle T. Vincent, who represented the transportation committee of the state legislature said:
 '.I think 1t was proved that the 30 per cent increase in freight rates that went into effect August 26, 1920, has curtailed the marketing of their products to such an extent that the growers suffered. Our contention Is that if we are given relief so that the growers can ship and market their 1921 products, the increase in ton maze will more than make up for the cut in rates in. revenue to the rail- roads,
 MT. Ford stated that his report on the hearing would soon be in the hands of the interstate commerce commission at Washington and inti- mated that speedy action might be expected, although he would give no information as to what recommenda- tions he would make.

May Remove Limit On Doctors Permit
 To Obtain Whiskey

WASHINGTON, May 20-New reg ulations have been prepared which will enable physicians prescribing whiskey for medical purposes to write as many prescriptions as they consider necessary, prohibition off cials said tonight. Under existing regulations physicians are limited to one hundred whiskey prescriptions over a period of 90 days.
 The new regulations, officials said, were ready for consideration by the new commissioner of internal reve- nue. The nomination of David $. Blair. of Winston Salem. N. C., as commissioner. is awaiting confirma- ton by the senate.
 Removal of the limit from the number of prescriptions for whiskey. it was explained, was made necessary by the opinion of former Attorney General Palmer, holding that the only ] limitation congress had placed on the use of whiskey for medical purposes was that not more than one pint could be prescribed for any one person within ten days.
