day approved rates on wool waste,
shoddy, mungo etc, as originally

which included 33 cents a pound
ON top, stubbing, rowing and ring

graph dealing with wool advanced
in any manner beyond the washed
or secured state. The compensa-
tory rate Of 36 cents pound was
unchanged, but the protective
duty Of rs per cent ad valoren
was cut by the committee to 2(
per cent.
Discussing tho committees rec
ommendation that this reduction
be made, Senator Walsh, demo
crat, Massachusetts,, said the ma
jority was putting itself in the
position before the senate and the
country of saying that it did not
know itself what was a fair and
just rate. He added that the DEM
ocrats could do no better service
to the country than to keep the
bill before the senate for another

night when Benny Leonard de-
fends his title against Lew Tend
Ter, Philadelphia, challenger In a
12-round contest.
Both boxers pronounced them
selves fit and confident on the eve
of bout perhaps unheraIded in
interest in the history of the light
weight ranks and rivalling as a
fistic attraction the memorable
encounter year ago on the same
battle ground when Jack Dempsey
successfully defended his heavy
weight crown against Georges
Carpenter.
Old timers recalled the Joe
Battling Nelson battle at
Goldfield some years ago and con
trasted it with tonight's bout.
Leonard finished his training
with the flat declaration that he
would win by a knockout within
seven rounds" Tender was no
less confident of his ability to
land a decisive blow. Both men
must weigh in at or under the
lightweight limit, I35 pounds, at
2 o'clock this afternoon and have
posted forfeits of SIS, 900 as guar
antees. Under the new Jersey box
ing laws no decision can be given
IL the bout goes the limit. Thus
Tenders only chance to dispiace
Leonard as champion is by scoring
a knockout or by a foul.
Arrangements have been made
to handle the largest throng that
ever attended lightweight
championship contest. Tex Rick
ard estimated tue attendance at
1000 and the gate receipts at be-
tween 100000 and 0,000.
The bout Is insured against rain
