finance at the same time began In
formal consideration of the measure.
Downward revision, maximum and
minimum provisions which Impose an
average maximum duty of 20 per cent
in excess of the present tariff, and nu
merous provisions by which It Is esti
mated that the revenue to the govern
ment will be increased from $40,000,
000 to $30,000,000 are the salient feat
ures of the new tariff bill which was
Introduced ln the house by Representa
tive Payne, chairman of the ways and
means committee. The recommenda
tions made by President Taft that an
inheritance tax be provided and that a
limited amount of tobacco and sugar
be admitted free from the Philippines
are included ln the bill. The measure
also provides for the Issuance of Pan
ama canal bonds to the amount of $40,
000,000 to reimburse the treasury for
the original purchase of the canal and
re-enacts the provision for the issue
of treasury certificates, the amount be
ing increasod from $100,000,000 to
$250,000,000.
While there la no duty imposed upon
coffee, tea is taxed 8 cents when im
ported from the country where It is

ternal revenue tax on cigarottes is ma
terially increased, while the tax on
beer and whisky is undisturbed. A
cut of 50 per cent is made in the steel

of art more than twenty years old are
placed on the free list.
Boots and Shoes Reduced.
The tariff on boots and shoes is re
duced 40 per cent and on other leather
manufactures in proportion. The pot
tery schedule remains about the same,
but the duties on window and plate
glass of the smaller sizes are In
creased, while the duties on the larger
sizes are reduced. The tariff on wool
of the first and second class, used prin
cipally ln clothing, is not disturbed,
but on wool of the third class, known
carpet wool, is reduced on the
cheaper grades. A 5 cent reduction is
made in the duties on shoddy and
waste, while wool tops are assessed 6
cents more than the duty on scoured

ommendations for placing wood pulp

Tax en Inheritances.
The Inheritance tax provision of the
bill Is similar to the New York state
law. It provides a tax of 6 per cent
on all Inheritances over $500 that are
collateral inheritances, or In which
strangers are tho legatees. In cases
of dlroet luhttrltance the taxes pre

per cent. It la entlmated that $20,000,.
$ per cunt. It Is estimated that 20,000.
000 annually will be derived from this
tax. The maximum and minimum nro-
vliions of the bill dom away with the
necessity of continuing the foratxn

KINS SEES OSliT FLIGHT
American Aercplanist Dees Some Atr.
ial Stunts for England's Ruler.
Pau, March 18. King EJward wit
nessed two meats by Wilbur Wrigt
and showed an equal amount of enthu
siasm with the other spectators In Hj
remarkable accomplishments of tLo
American aeroplanist.
Wilbur and Orvilla Wright an. I
their sister, Miss Wright, were pre
sented to his majesty. Wilbur WrigU
then conducted the king to the aero
plane shed, where the latter minutaiy
examined the mechanism of the ma
chine, which was decorated with
American, British and French flags.
His majesty watched the preparations
for ascent with the greatest Interest,
taking a group for a photograph.
Mr. Wright made the first ascension
alone. He remained in the air for
seven minutes, performing marvelous
evolutions with the utmost precision
around the king and his party, and
coming to the ground without diffi
culty. On the second flight, Miss
AVright was a passenger. They soared
to a great height and then skimmed
along the ground an.il disappeared la
the direction of Pau. They reappeared
after an interval of six minutes, de
scending amid applause from the king
and other visitors. His majesty warm
ly congratulated Mr. Wright on his
success and then returned to his hotel.
CUBAN INSURGENTS
AREJURROUNDED
First Fatality in Uprising is
Death of Rebel Leader.
Havana, March 18. The indications
are that the government Is now in a
fair way to crush promptly the Incip
ient revolution which broke out ln
the province of Santa Clara Monday
night. The palace officials announced
that the father ot two of the members
of the band headed by Sergeant Cortez
of the rural guard had visited General
Monteagudo, chief ot the guard at
Camajuanl, and told him that the in
surgents Implored the clemency of the
government and were anxious to sur
render on the promise that their lives
would be spared. General Monteagudo,
accompanied by a strong . escort.
thereupon started' for the insurgent
camp. The general expected to re
ceive their surrender before evening.
The insurgents are now surrounded uy
a cordon of more than 1,000 rurala,
drawn from the garrisons In various
parts of the island, but owing to the
rugged character of the country It will
be extremely duncult for the troops
to come to close quarters with the in
surgents. While the government still
insists that the band consists of only
eight men, it is alleged that the move
ment is far-reaching. It Is declared
that Cortes Is accompanied by fully
100 men, mounted and well armed.
More gratifying to tile government
than the prospective capture of the in
surgent band was the arrest and sub
sequent killing ot former Captain La
vastida of the rural guard, who Is be
lieved to have been the principal in
stigator of the uprising. Lavastida
was arrested by Major Arteaga of the
rural guard and was charged with con
spiracy against the government. While
on the way to Remedlos under escort
It Is alleged that Lavastida attempted
to escape, whereupon Colonel Esguer-
ra, ln command of the escort, shot
and killed him. Heretofore this has
been a common method ln Cuba of
dealing with inconvenient prisoners.
