After reading the newspaper reports of the meeting, Mr. Hart wrote to Council man Wallace, chairman of the special waterworks ' committee, stating that If there was any such feeling among the councilmen regarding the legal services' of his Arm a appeared to exist that the resignation- of himself and Mr. Tinley would be forthcoming on the slightest In timation, regardless of any contract ' by which the city might be held. . . At once on receiving the letter Council man Wallace had an Interview with Mr. Harl, In which he succeeded In explain ing away some of the remark made by hi brother councilmen Thursday evening. A a result of the Interview Mr.' Harl withdrew Vila letter of resignation. At this Interview Mr. Harl suggested to Chairman Wallace of the special com h)lttee that It would be extremely unwise for the city council at this time to aban don the negotiation with the waterwarks company or to take extreme measures. Such a course, Mr. Harl pointed out, would probably lead to year of lltlgatloni and If the city was finally 'successful In com pelling the waterworks company to take up It pipe from the streets every bit of paving In the city would have to be torn up In order that the company could get Its pipes out of the ground.

DES MOINES. Ia. June 2-Secretary of the Treasury 8haw came to Iowa today to participate in the factional fight which has broken out In the republican party In this state. He delivered two speeches. In which he attacked Governor Cummins for being a tariff revisionist. This afternoon Secretary Shaw spoke at Newton to a large audience and tonight be addressed a big crowd at Knoxvllle, these places be ing the chief towns In counties whose dele gates to the state convention are being contested. It wss on the Invitation of th? antl-Cummlns, or Perkins organlxatlon. that Secretary Shaw appeared at the two towns. H la acheduled to deliver an other speech Monday at Waterloo, where another hard fight Is being waged. Secretary Shaw's addresses were devoted to a discussion of the tariff. He assailed republicans who demand Immediate re vision, but he suggested the possibility of such a program after the 190 presidential election. "In my' Judgment." said the secretary In substsnce, "If the tariff Is revised again, it will be after a presidential election and by a special session of congress convened Immediately. Following such a revision there would be no election for nearly two years, and during such time we might possibly get over the disturbs nee" snd be come adjusted to the new order of thing. "There Is not one-fourth the sentiment for tariff revision there was three years ago. The republican party has never gone out of power even on the tariff Issue, ex cept Immediately following a revision of the tariff at its own handa, and neither we nor the democrats have revised the tsriff and remained In power a year, ex cept In the case of the Dlngley bill. "Since the election In 1904. President Roosevelt ha submitted three messages to congress. In no one of which did he recom mend tariff revision. Has he a right to speak for us? Are we Roosevelt repub licans? If so, why should ws not be standpatters? He has made many speeches, but In none has he recommended tariff revision. When you tell people that they are robbed by the tariff you Indict your president for not demsnding that re vision. "The committee on ways and means has formulated no revision bill, nor haa It con sidered the formation, of such bill. Th congressional caucus hss met again, but It has recommended no tariff revision. "Who Is responsible for the policies of the party? Does not the national con vention speak with authority? Are we as republicans not bound by thst platform? Does not the republics n president, the lesder of hi psrty. spesk with authority, snd a republican are we not bound by his recommendation and by his failure to recommend? Is not th ' republican ma jority In congress clothed with authority to speak for the party, and ia It not clothed with authority to keep alienee? "I say to you that th only phase of the present contest In Iowa Is revision, and the candidal who takes it upon himself to spesk of the effects of the Dlngley tariff as robbery will be Understood In every ststa of ths union by th party. "The party Is facing a bitter congres sional fight. It Is not yet won. though I sm more hopeful- than a month ago. Wa must remember thst another election comes two ears from now."
