Senator Warren Denies There Is Hide Trust and Declares Packers Do Not Control Price. Washington, July 27. Hidoa will bo put upon tho free Hut If boots and shoos nuil other manufactures ot leather nrc roducod below tho rntus fixed by tho housu bill. UiiIosh tho ndvocntoB of free hjdos nrc ablo to carry out this bat gain tho whole pro gram Is to bo callud off. A decision to this effect was 1 cached by the tarlfC conforcOB. Tho Iioubo momuors will have n re port from tho Iioubo lenders today as to tho possibility of passing a rule conferring jurisdiction upon them to agree to lower rates on leather than those named In tho house bill. Senator Aldrlch has .Informed sena tors from tho northwestern states that ho will not consent to tho abolition of tho duty on hides unless there Is u material cut In tho rutes on boots and shoos and other leather goods. In no othor way, ho said, can ho get tho votes necessary for tho adoptlou of tho report In tho Benate If It carries freo hides. Senators from cattle rais ing Btntos have insisted that tho only way consumers can got nny benefits from tho removal of tho protection on hides will bo by corresponding reduc tion in the duties on boots anil shoes nnd harness. Tho llltodu Island sena tor's views coincide with this state ment. It Is generally beliovcd that tho compromise giving cheap rates on Bhoes and other manufactures of leather In roturn for free hides will bo adopted. Sonntor Warren said that tho west ern Bcuutora would not bo represent ing their states If they wero to con sent to tho abolition of tho duty on hides In tho interest of tho manufact urers of shoes and other leather goods unloss manufacturers In Now England and other eastern states aro compell ed to concede lower rates on leather products. Whllo tho western senntors tnlto the position that tho icmovnl of tho duty on hides will bo Injurious to tho cattle business, some of them say they will withdraw thejr protests ho cause of tho Insistence of President Taft, If reductions aro made all alone tho lino in tho leather schedule. Hide Trust Denied. According to Senator Warren, tho story that beef packers nro engaging oxtensivoly in the tanning business and will be the principal beneficiaries from a duty on hides has been used by tho free lililo lobby Jn manufact uring Bontlmont ngalimt tho protec tion tiBked by the cattlo industry. He submitted figures to Senator Aldrlch to bo used in refuting this argument Warron declare 1 that trie thieo larg est packers In tho United Statos an nually tan 1,303,000 hides, which, ho said. Is only 7 per cent of the entire production. He denied that the beer paokors aro nblo to control the leather market. 1 ALIENISTS IN THAW CASE Experts Trying to Prove Stanford White's Slayer Sane.

Three hours before tho wreck a rrolght train or forty-five load ed cars passed tho point safely. Threo hours later No. 4 started' across tho same bit of track. Fifty feet or the roadbed suddenly collapsed and en gine and cars piled on the other in the water. Tho train was running fourteen miles an hour, but the telescoping or tho forward cars allowed tho three rear cars to stop bo gradually that their occupants wero hardly Bhaken. Eight mall clerks wero saved only by tho fact that the roof of their car was torn off nnd allowed them to get out on top of tho car and swim for the shore. None escaped injury.

The one story bungalow Is the pure type in the section of the country where this kind of structure was first adopted. In other sections, however, particularly In the north, the addition of perhaps n story or half story often rob the uamc of its original signifi cance. A dwelling house which con tains two stories or even n story and n hnlf, fitted and finished throughout for living purposes, is never spoken of as a bungnlow by people familiar with the original type, no matter what the general outline may be. To dwellers In towns nnd cities who have grown ncciHtoineil to life In an upstairs lint tho bungalow, where all of the living rooms aro close to tho ground, seems more desirable thnn the two story or even the story and a hnlf dwelling, with tho inevitable and back torturing stairs to be ascended scores of times ench day. All In all the bungalow holds out the promise of luxury in liv ing even though Its nearness to the ground nud to nature and freedom from architectural pretense suggest a homo of simplicity.
