At the present time there is q
lot of unemployment in the coun-

to the demands for immigration
restrictions that will keep
foreign labor out of the United

of being flooded" with this

important issue is their COMPETE

were not enough men in the

President Hrrding has packed
the Tariff Commission with pro-
tectionists of the highest cult.
One of his selections for this
board is the secretary of the no

his long advocated excluding all
foreign-made goods from the
American markets.
Another is the president of a
high tariff organization. Evil
dentally the new President is
determined that the expert adj

from experts" who believe in
the highest form of protection. $
This action will be explained
by some as indicating that the
president intends to side with
those members of his party who
advocate going back to the AL
sdrich tariff and permitting our
foreign trade to disappear. It
is equally probable. however.
that the whole thing is merely
a part of a plan to get rid of the
Tariff Commission. The Repub-

Hayward Edwards, twenty-five years
old, of 334 West Fifty-ninth Street, a
negro porter, was arrested last night
after a verbal battle which took place
on a steel girder which forms part
of the sixteenth floor of the State
Theater Building, in course of con-

After much persuasion on the part
of Patrolman William Mott, of Traffic

Edwards was taken to the West

Enrico Caruso, who for several weeks
has been fighting against complications
following an attack Of pleurisy which
brought him at one point to the verge
of death, was again operated on yes
terday. The operation was performed
in the presence of his five attending.
physicians and it's purpose was to 1e-
lieve Ahe tenor of collection of pus on
one side of the pleural cavity. There
was only one bulletin issued on his
condition. This followed Immediately
upon the operation and read:
"iIr. Caruso has had a second slight
recollection of pus in the fnak which
has been successfully evacuated. He is
resting comfortably"
More Oxygen Delivered
Although il was said at the Caruso
apartments at the Hotel Vanderbilt
last night that the patient was resting
comfortably" persons attached to the
Caruso household were reluctant to
speak of the tenor's condition. Three
tanks of oxygen were delivered at the
Caruso apartments last night. 1t was
understood, however, that the oxygen
was not intended for immediate use,
but for emergency in case there should
be relapse.
Yesterdays operation on the tenor
followed a consultation of Caruso's
physicians, Drs. Erdman, Lambert,
Stella, Evans and Murray. The physi-
clans called at the Caruso apartments

custom since the patient appeared to
have grown stronger and an immediate
operation was decided upon. Caruso,
it was said, was very cheerful before
the operation and appeared to be anx-
ious to have it over with. After the
operation, it was declared, he fell into
calm sleep. The tenor was given gas
as an anasthetic.
DR.. Murray was in constant attend
ance upon the singer all day yesterday
and the other physicians were within
easy call. DR.. Murray passed the night
in the Caruso apartments.
One of the other attending physi-
clans, who would not be quoted, said:
1--WE are hopeful, if not sanguine,
that the best will quickly follow to-.
days operation on Mr.. Caruso and that
his fever will go down.
Renewed Weakness
1t was the failure Of Caruso's fever to
subside, it is understood, which prompt

was said to have shown renewed signs
of weakness for the last two or three
days, though no one connected with the
case would refer to this development

ALBANY, March Mayors from va
rious cities began pouring into Albany
tonight in preparation for the state
conference of Mayors tomorrow, prior
TO the hearing on Governor Miller's
utility bill reorganzing the public
service commissions and creating a
transit commission with sweeping pow
ers to deal with the New York City
transit situation.
Mayor John +. Hylan was one of the
first municipal executives to reach here.
He was accompanied by his Corpora
tion Counsel, John T. O'Brien. When
asked if he wanted to comment on the
situation, he said:
~ am sorry that haven't brilliant
thought or two to give YOU"
Then he retired to his room.
1t is expected that the majority OF
the mayors will oppose the bill, as did
a sub committee Of the mayors con-
ference, composed of the Corporation
Counsels OF majority of the cities of
the state, at meeting here a week ago.
The hearing on the Knight-Adler bill
which carries out the ideas Of the Gov
ernor on the transit situation and on
pubic utilities generally, promises to
be the stormiest ever held in the state
Capitol
Feeling on both sides is at fever
point. and the usual parliamentary
decorum has not been observed in the
debates in the Legislature which
touched on the knight-Adler bill in any
degree.

in the Senate to-day during a discus
sion of bill adding to Buffalo's meas
ure of home rule.

Binghamton, the principal city of his
district, which has gone on record
against the Knight-Adler bill.
Senator Lusk, who is not only for
the bill, but has brought over num-
ber Of doubling Senators from cities
upstate and more than one from New
York City, in his letter to Mr. Jones
gave some Of the reasons why he was
for the bill.
The majority leader said that the
street car companies of the state were
on the verge of bankruptcy and were
not only unable to render adequate
service in their present plight, but that
# something were not done to aid their
financial condition. savings banks. in
surance companies and Others which
had invested in traction securities
