Maximum Rates Then ,to Go Into Ef
fect Against All Countries Not Giv
ing United States Their Best Tariff
Rates General Debate In House.
Washington, April 3. President
Taft was Informed of the senate pro
gram for the administration of the
new tariff bill. It provides that a
minimum tariff shall apply to all
countries for one year. At the end of
that time the maximum rates -will go
Into effect against all countries, which
In the opinion of the president are
not giving the United States their
best tariff rates.
The president is understood to fa
vor strongly this Idea of application
of the maximum and minimum prin
ciple and it is believed that It will
be the plan finally agreed upon. The
plan of administering the minimum
and maximum rates In the house bill
ai It now stands Is said to be more
Indefinite and less effective than the
one proposed by the senate finance
committee.
Prior to the cabinet meeting Presi
dent Taft had a conference with
Chairman Aldrlch of the senate
finance committee and Secretary of
the Treasury McVcagh. Senator Aid
rich assured the president that the
committee Is making most satisfac
tory progress with the tariff bill and
said there would he little or no delay
in taking tne matter up In the sen
ate following a vote In the house.
General Debate in Hcuse.
That tho Payne bill was filled with
riotous Imperfections, was a false pre
tense, was designed to cover up the
extravagancies of the Republican ad
ministration, that it did not redeem
party pledges pnd that it sounded the
death knell of the dominant party,
were pome of the criticisms paHsed
upon the measure by the Democratj
In the house.
An Interesting feature of tho de
bate was the speech of Pable Ocampo
do Leon, the. Philippine commission
er. who ntfacked the prov?.--.ton for
free trade with the Phiilpp'ne Islands.
From the far couth exactly opposite
views were expressed regarding pro
tection, Ransdc'I (La.) pleading for
It on behnlf of the Industries of his
state, while Splght (Miss.) and Clay
ton (Ala.) wanted free lumber, hides,
boots, shoes, bagging and cotton ties,
The speech of Clayton was of consld
erable length, and he engaged In sev
eral heated colloquies with members
on the Republican side. From the
Republicans came suggestions of a
"nermanent" tariff commission, and
while all of them supported the bill
In general, none appeared entirely
satisfied with It.
ZEPPELIN MARK RETURN TRIP
Airship Given an Ovation on Its Ar
rival at Munich.
Munich, April 3. The Zeppelin air
ship appeared over Munich about
1:30 p. ni. and made a successful
landing on the parade grounds ouild.-
the city. The count was greeted by
the prince regent of Bavaria and sev
eral princes and princesses of the
royal family. A vast crowd had a$
sembled to witness the descent, which
was made lightly and easily.
The authorities had been advised
by telegraph of the hour when the
airship could be expected. The pub
lic school children were given a holi
day and extra editions of the newspa
pers were sold on the streets giving
full accounts of the travels of the air
ship. Count Zeppelin was greeted by the
prince regent as he stepped from the
car and was carried off by the prince
to luncheon. Many distinguished per
sons were present at the meal. The
prince proposed the health of the
count and conferred a gold medal up
on him. He also decorated the
count's companions.

Gibraltar, Anril 3. The steamer
Hamburg, with Theodore Roosevelt
and the members of his party on board,
came into Gibraltar a few minutes be
fore 9 a. nr. The vessel sailed at
noon for Naples.
Richard U Sprapue, the American
consul, and an aide-de-camp of Gen
eral Sir Frederick Forestler-Walker,
governor of Gibraltar, went out to
the Hamburg to welcome the former
president of the United States. After
an exchange of greetings, Mr. Roose
velt, wearing a frock coat and a silk
hat, came down over the aide and
stepped into a launch sent out by the
captain of the port and was brought
ashore. The party proceeded at once
to the residence of Mr. Sprague. At
10:30 o'clock Mr. Roosevelt called up
on General Forestler Walker.
Mr. Roosevelt refused to be photo
graphed and he declined every re
quest for an Interview. The weather
Is bright and warm, and Mr. Roose
velt appeared to be In the best of
health and spirits. Upon leading the
Hamburg he shook hand3 wl.h a
number of the passengers, who
cheered him enthusiastically.
It Is said that the Roosevelt party
does not Intend to go ashore at
Naples; that the members will mere
ly transfer themselves and their be
!onglngs from the Hamburg to the
Rteamer Admiral. In this event Mr
Roosevelt will not be able to see the
duchess of Aosfa at the Italian port.
Mr. Roosevelt visited the second
claps and steerage quarters of the
Hamburg and was Riven an enthusi
astic reception. He was accompanied
by the Italian Immigration commis
sioner on board the vessel. In the
absence of Captain Buvnielstcr. the
chief officer of the Hamburg. "called
upon E. A. Powell to present to Mr
Roosevelt fn Illuminated address pre
pared by the passengers
made a happy speech, eulogizing Mr
Roosevelt and wishing him a good
voyage, and his remarks were re
ceived with applause. Mr. Roosevelt
answered In a brief and characteristic
address.
Lnter th party repaired to the
main saloon, where Ices were served
by the ship's stewards, dressed up as
neptunes and other fantastic charac
ters. All the lhhts had been turned
low and the effect was weird. This
c rtertalnment was followed by a
dance, at which Mr. Roosevelt danced
with Miss Ruth Draper. Before with
