Ambrose today constituted the evidence
upon which States Attorney George D.
Carbary expected to set precedent for
prohibition enforcement in Illinois
courts by prosecuting on a charge OF
purchasing liquor.
States Attorney Carbary, who con-
Quoted the recent investigation into
the Staying of Mrs. Lillian De King
during a dry raid in her Aurora home,
said Mrs. Ambrose would plead guilty
Monday to a charge of buying liquor
and would be fined in Kane County
Court at Geneva.
Mrs. Ambrose called on me and
wanted to know what her punishment
would be if she pleaded guilty. toIo
her she would be fined $lOO and so

will plead guilty and pay her fne.

Number of G. 0. P. Repre-
SentativeS From West and
Some From East Join Foes.
ALL MEMBERS OF PARTY
IN HOUSE MEET TODAY
Further Sessions Seen Needed to
Settle Procedure-Week of Gen.
raj Debate Held Likely.

By the Associated Press.
A pronounced division in Republican
ranks over the tariff revision bill, with
large block of members from the
agricultural West and some from the
industrial East rallying around an op-
position banner, today had Republican
leaders of the House in quandary.
A conference of the entire Republican
membership was called to meet this
afternoon after several hours more Of
general debate on the measure in an
attempt to smooth out some of the diff
culties. Indications were, however, that
further meetings would have to be held
before decision could be reached re-
garding the procedure under which the
measure will be taken up for amend
ment.
The Western complaint against the
bill crystalized yesterday even before it
was brought up on the floor for the
beginning of debate, Republicans from
10 Western States joining in criticism
of the proposed farm duties, and Gecid-
ing to ask the Republican caucus today
to postpone action on a special rule.
Chairman HaWley of the ways and
asserted that the rate changes 1epre-
sented a higher average percentage of
protection for agricultural commodities
than for manufactures.
Plea for Duty on Hides.
Before the day was over the Western
ers had gained support from the New
York Republican delegation, one of
whom, Representative Crowther,
member of the ways and means com
mittee, made an appeal for duty o.
hides. He sought tariff protection for
leather and boots and shoes, all of
which remain on the free list in the
proposed bill.
The New York Republican said they
thought the farmers were entitled to
more liberal treatment and they were
expected to support the Westerners in
their request for rule allowing amend
ments to be offered to the agricultural
schedule.
Representative Dickinson Of Iowa,
who was appointed by the Western con-
ference to present the petition to the
caucus for poStpo7en1ent of action on
an amendment limiting rules until the
group had had more time to study. the
bill, declared the measure fell lar snort
Of the Vests expectations.
Week of Debate Likely.
Unless schedules embracing live cat
tle hides, caSein, taploca, sago, potato
starch, black strap molasses, long staple
cotton, fax seed and butter are thrown
open to amendment, he said, the tarliI
bill would not meet the requirements
of the Middle West or fulfill the cam
paign pledges made in the last CAM
paign."
Of the articles mentioned, only black
strap molasses, for use in the manufac-
ture of industrial alcohol, and fax seed
are given higher duties in the proposec
