REPUBLICANS IN
SENATE REVOLT
AGAINST REPORT
Duty on Electric Light Bulbs
Plays a Prominent Part
in the More Than Two
Hours Debate.
tBy The Associated PressA

Washington, May 3l.-There was
a revolt tonight in the senate re-
publican ranks against the finance
committee recon- lamentations to inn
pose a duty of 20 per cent ad valo-
rem on electric light bulbs and
other Illuminating glassware. An
amendment by Senator Jones,
democrat, New Mexico, to substi-
tute 40 per cent rate, was defeat
ed 81 to 30.
Fourteen republicans supported
the Jones amendment. They were
Borah, Capper, Cummins, Kellogg,
Keyes, Iadd, LaFollette, Lenroot,
McNary, Newberry, Norbeck, Nor.
ris, Sterling and Townsend. Two
democrats-Broussard and Rams
dell-voted against the amendment.
Without roll call the senate
approved q rate of 60 per cent ad
valorem on household glassware,
blown or partly blown in the mould,
and duty of SO per cent on such
glassware when pressed and unpol-
ished.
Senator Jones, first sought to
make the rate on bulbs and other
glassware 40 per cent,
but that amendment was rejected,
~ to 20. Thirteen republicans and
the fourteen democrats present
supported it. ...s
A letter written to Senator La
Toilette republican, Wisconsin, by
samuel Untermeyer, counsel for tho
Lockwood investigating committee
in New York, which was read In
the senate last week by Senator La
Toilette and which alleged control
of the electric bulb situation by the
General Electric company, played a
prominent part in the more than
two hours debate on this subject.
Senator Jones. who led the oppo-
sition forces, pointed out that elec-
trio bulbs had been dealt with sep
arately In the house bill and had
carried a rate of 35 per cent and
charged that there had been "some
very deft bandiwork" in the re-
writing of the glassware paragraph
in the senate bill.
This paragraph Of the tariff
measure held sway today and to-
night throughout the time that the
tariff measure was before the sem
ate. Senator Jones sought to have
the rs per cent rate on laboratory
glassware recommended by the
committee reduced to As per cent
but his amendment was rejected
26 to 40.
Senator McCumber, republican.
North Dakota. in charge Of the bill,
and Senators Frelinghuysen of New
Jersey, and Sutherland. of West
Virginia, defended the committee
rates on glassware which ranged
from so to rs per cent.

VICTOR IN DUEL
AND WITNESSES
SENT To PRISON
tBy The Asso ciated press.)

Paris, June (by the Associated
Press) A duel to the death over
a woman has brought prison sem
tences to the victor, Maurice Pin
teaux, an Apache, and the wit
nesses of the fight The court re-
jected the defense's plea that duel
ing with knives in the underworld
was quite as respectable as sword
or pistol affairs before top-hatted
society leaders.
Pinteaux and his Seconds" were
sentenced last night to two years
imprisonment each, and the direc-
tor OF the combat to six months,
for their parts in the death of
Charles Lallemant, anoth r
Apache. Lallemant was formerly
the paramour of Louise Rather
but Pinteaux won her from him,
The testimony showed that the
duel was conducted according to
set rules. Similar knives, we'll
sharpened at the scene by the wit
nesses, were given to the COM
batants. Lallemant disregarded
the rules. When he attempted to
follow up his advantage of draw
ing first blood by kicking vigor-
ously at Pinteaux's abdomen, the
other apache closed in on him, re-
peatedly stabbing his opponent un-
til he fell mortally wounded.
The attorneys for the defense
abandoned their announced plan
of summoning persons in the social
world as experts to testify that the
duel as conducted was entirely
regular"

AFTER A LONG FIGHT

Washington, June AFTER a
five hours fight the senate APP
proved tonight committee amend
ments to the tariff bill proposing
a duty of SO per cent ad valorem
and cents a pound on crude
coal tar aye products. The vote
was 81 to 20. three republicans,
Keyes, La Toilette and Norris, op-
posing the amendment, and one
democrat, Kendrick, supporting it..
The controversy over the 60
per cent and cents a pound
duties proposed on coal tar dye
intermediates and the modified
dye embargo provisions of the
bill went over, the senate after
this one vote, turning it's atten-
tion to the brick schedule. The
committee withdrew it's original
proposition for duty of 25 per
cent ad valorem on building
bricks, which came under fire
last week, and offered as a sub
stitute that brick be placed on the
free list but with a proviso that
such brick coming from a country
imposing a duty on the American
products should pay the same
rate of duty as that imposed on
brick from the United States.
Senator McCumber, republican,
North Dakota, said Canada was
the only country imposing a duty
on American building bricks.

Shoals, Ala, with a view to pre-
senting completed proposals to the
house and senate for final disposi-
tion.
In the house military committee
developments pointed TO a quick
decision by that body, delivery
there Of Henry Ford's final pro-
posal and the presentation OF a
letter from him to Chairman Kahn
calling for early acceptance or re-
lection Of the tender as q whole,

speedy action could not be had in
congress while the house and sem
ate continued to move along what
appeared to him to be opposite
paths in seeking to find a solution
of the problem.
He suggested that the two legis-
lative bodies get together, work out

minutes a personal encounter be-
