Traffic Arbiter Put Into
Gutter by Elderly Goat
Section 6 Badly Violated and
Policeman's Dignity Also
Suffers AhrasiOus

Policeman August Grom, of the Bed
ford Avenue police station, was d.
recting traffic yesterday at Roebling
and Grand streets, Brooklyn. when an
elderly goat, with whiskers on his feet
and chin, ambled up, stopped and
stared at him. 1t was distinct viola
tion of Section of the traffic reguta-
tions, and Grom drew his night stick
to disperse the animal. .
Traffic stopped to oswatch him do 1t.
Pedestrians paused for the same
purpose.
"G'way," commanded Grom, tapping
the goat on the brow with his stick. =
But the goat misunderstood him. r
thought Grom wanted to play, so It
backed up few feet for the sake OF
achieving little momentum and
dashed at the policeman's legs. Grom
laid about him with his club. Some
times he hit the goat and sometimes
he didn't. The goat didn't seem to
mind it a bit. 1t just kept ramming
Grom all over the street, finally knock
ing him into the gutter.
PatrolmeE Schneider and Meireau,
two skilled goat catchers, finally came
up and managed to lasso the beast. 1t
was later claimed by Philip Willstein,
Of 53S Metropolitan Avenue

LenrOOt Insists
On 4O% Slash
1n Wool Tariff
Amendment Limits Maxi
mum Duty to 90 P. C. Ad
Valorem; Senator Asserts
This Protects Farmers
High Rail Rates Assailed
Committee Meets to Con-
slider Concessions, but Is
Expected to Stand Firm

From The Tr1busse's Washix0fon Bureau
WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator
Lenroot, of Wisconsin,, to-day opened
the battle over the wool schedule by
Offering an amendment TO the first
paragraph, carrying the rates on coarse
wools, which would limit the maximum
duty to 60 per cent ad valorem. He
served notice he would propose a SINH
lar maximum of go per cent throughout
the wool schedule. The rate proposed
by the Finance Committee is thirty
three cents q pound.
If the Lenroot limitation should be
adopted it would reduce materially
many of the rates in the wool schedule,
some Of which mount up to 1877 per
cent.
The Finance Committee Republicans
met this morning to consider whether
some reductions should not be made in
the wool schedule, in view of the or
position by Senator Lenroot and
others. No final decision was an
nouncees sharp differences developed
and the matter went over until to-
morrow. One member of the commit
tee said the decision would be to
"stand pat"
Wadsworth Backs LenrOot
Senator Wadsworth was not active in
the discussion to-day, but is backing
Senator Lenroot.
The weakness of the movement to
reform the wool schedule lies in the
fact that ten Democratic Senators are
said to be ready to vote for the high
rates. If they do this it will be al
most out of the question for the Len
root plan to succeed The first vote
is likely to be reached tomorrow.
With respect to the first paragraph
of the bill. Senator Lenroot said the
specific rates therein were the equiva
lent of 100 per cent, and hence his
amendment would mean a reduction of
40 per cent. He called attention to
the fact that the. first paragraph of
the bill contained a provision under
which coarse wools, if used for rugs
or carpets, would come in free. but
when used in clothing for the people"
would pay duty of 100 per cent.
1t was made plain by Senator Len
root that even under his amendment
the rates in the first paragraph would
be higher than in the Payne -Aldrich
bill.
"The actual duty imposed by this
BILL" said Senator Lenroot, "as COM
pared with the actual duty of the
Payne-Aldrich law. is SO per cent in
excess of the duties of the Payne
Aldrich law"
Senator Lenroot Brought out that the
Tariff Commission cures on the cost
of production of wools in this coun-
try showed that it was as cents a
pound in 1919 in the range states.
This includes per cent interest on
investment. The AZ cents is the figure
generally referred to by the advocates
of the wool schedule as the cost of
producing wool. Senator Lenroot
pointed out that the Esch- -Cummins
law had been severely criticized as

London Debt ParIev
10 Coon Without us.

PARIS.. July ID (By The Asso-
ciated Press).--The Allied coun-
tries' convinced that the United
States will not be drawn into a
debt cancellation conference un-
der any pretext, have decided to
90 ahead independently, and it is
now generally understood that
debts in connection with the rep-
aration problem will be taken up
at the Forthcoming conference at
London. The Allies have learned
from an unquestionable source
that during this discussion the
United States will be an inter.
ested, although silent, observer.
1t is hoped, however, that if
economic improvement results
from any action taken, the Amer
lean government may, in the next
few years. reconsider it's attitude
toward its European debtors.

EASTER HYMN

The following Easter Hymn was
written in 1916 by Rev. M. F. Oerter,
a former pastor of the Graceham Mo-
ravian Church.:
o, joyous morn of Easter day.
What tidings glad are thine!
The Lord is risen-dost thou say?
o make this gladness mine!
Speak thou thy message in my heart,
Bid doubts and fears for e'er DEPART
My Savior, dying in my stead,
Is risen from the dead!
o, tender morn of Easter day.
What comfort sweet is thine
Where sorrow dwells, thy cheering ray
On aching hearts doth shine.
The tears of grief are gently dried;
For Jesus Christ, the Crucified,
Shall those, who died in Him, once more
To endless life restore.
o, glorious morn of Easter day.
What promise great is thine!
Ger heaven and earth, in perfect sway,
Shall reign our King divine!
For He, the Lamb of God once slain,
In majesty shall come again;
And His dominion shall extend
Thro' ages without end!

ST. ANTHoNYs

Music from the air. to many seems
impossible but to Mr.. ]. Edw. Settler
and his folks at home and some of his
friends, this is not impossible, for by
the use of the radiophone, music, lee
lures, speeches, etc., can all be heard
in ones home. Several days ago Mr..
Settler erected his aerial. Upon its
completion he secured the servicesof
Mr.. H. S. Townsend, manufacturing
electrician of Baltimore to demon
strate the radiophon with his instru-
ment. In order to prove what Messrs.
Settler and Townsend promised, sew
eral of Mr.. Settlers friends were invi-
ted to his home to take part in the
listen-in concert by wireless. Hardly
had the receiving instrument been con-
nected when Mr.. Townsend handed the
head receivers to one of the guests
and they heard the broadcasting sta
ton "Koka", Pittsburgh, issuing the
program for the following day. Next
time cameNewark, N. j. Here was
heard the solo "The Old Town Hall"
accompanied by orchestra. The time
was also secured from the Arlington
station. To many this may seem i'm
possible but to all who have so far
heard the radiophone know what a
wonder it is. BY use of this instru-
ment the owner will be able to secure
something from the air at most any
hour of the day. It has been an
nounced from one of the broadcasting
stations that all baseball scores this
year will be sent by radio.
Mr., Seltzerpromises another demon
stration before many days. Within
two weeks he hopes to have his own
set In full operation. He has so far
received several offers from different
parts of the country to demonstrate
the instrument, especially at remote
places. The nominal cost of the DEM
onstration is small and will greatly
repay the interested parties.
To many the two large poles at the
home of Mr.. Settler was joke but to
the owner It will be source Of pleas
ure. .

RABBIT SUPPLY NOT TO COME

RABBIT SUPPLY NOT TO COME
The State Game Department of
Maryland made extensive plans for re-
coupling the game of Maryland and to
this end had ordered number of
rabbits shipped to Frederick county.
During the past season the hunters
of this county were particularly sue
cessful and their efforts greatly de-
pleted the stock of rabbits. The
State Game Department some time
ago made arrangements for a large
number of rabbits to be shipped here
from Kansas; all PREPARATIONS were
made to receive thegame and both
local and state officials were daily
expecting its arrival, when State
Game Warden Flee LeCompte receiv-
ed letter from the broker through
whom the rabbits had been ordered
stating that for several reasons he
would be unable to fill the order.
The reasons as advanced in the let
ter received by Mr.. LeCompte were
that the mortality as shown in pre-
vious shipments to this State was en-
tirely too high, ranging from rs to 30
per cent, and also that the breeding
season is now on and the trappers
have pulled their traps in order to
save the mother rabbits from being
trapped and taken from their young.
It is stated in the letter that the ex-
cessively high mortality rate was
probably due to overheated and over
crowded express cars.
The State Game Department en-
deavored to procure even a few rab-
bits but even this was shown to be
impossible at this time. However, it
is felt that sportsmen in this county
will notsuffer through this loss Of ship
ment since reports show that rabbits
are still comparatively plentiful
throughout the State.
