WASHINGTON. March Jl. Without any
preliminaries tha houae today resumed con
sideration of the tariff bill. Mr. Morgan of
Missouri urged protection for tha line In
dustry. .
Claiming- that the great coal operators of
"Western Pennsylvania and Ohio, who, he
said, nci- rnjoy a monopoly on the Ontario
innrkrm, favor the reciprocity arrange
ment with regard to free hituminotia coal
lifiamp If would mean an adddlltlonal
profit of mllllnne of dollar to thrm, Mr.
Momleli of Wyoming apoke In opposition to
the Pane provision for goal.
"From my viewpoint," he said, "tha
bill coi.iilim a number of changes from the
rrcsynt law which are not Justifiable."
Claiming that the duty on wool of the third
clar should be retained as at present and
that there should ba no reduction in the
duty on lop and waste, he held that the
reductions In duties on leather and Its
manufactures did not justify placing hides
on the free list, as hides are one of he
few Items the tariff on which directly ben
efit tha farmer.
"I am opposed to tha free importation,"
he said, "of a large amount of Philippine
tobacco and cigars and 100,000 tons of sugar
annually. The provision ia not in harmony
with the policy of the bill viewed either
from a protectionist or a revenue stand
point." Free Coal Will Not Bedaee Price.
Mr. Mondell declared that tha change of
ralca whereby alack la to pay the same rate
a lump coal will so affect certain large
consumer, notably railroad lines, aa to
reuse them to throw all their influence in
favor of a reciprocity arrangement. He
asid the coal Industry of certain Important
portions needed protection. He contended
that the tariff on coal does not Increase
tha coat to consumers and that free coal
will not reduce tha price.
'I.deny," ha declared, "thit reciprocity

roal ln the,,kerage vr In tha long run,
Hut if it should reduce tha prlco a few
cents', per, ton. K must be at the expenae
cf having American products driven from
its markets by a foreign product."
Ha asserted that the wages to the Ameri
can laborer would be reduced by free coal.
Continuing;, Mr. Mondell aaid:
"The federal government owea at least
20,OtO.0O0 acres of land in Wyoming, Mon
tana and Idaho containing coal of good
quality, and at least aa much more con
taining roal of lower grades, tha value of
all or which will be directly and seriously
affected by the Canadian coal and. curi
ously enough, the executive departments
are endeavoring to boost the price on
these limits, while a portion of the execu
tive branch propose to make them prac
tically worthlasa by Canadian competition
with their products."
Palp a ad Paper.
Mr. Minn of Illinois discussed the recom
mendation rf tha pulp and paper commit
tee, of which he was chairman, for a re
duction of the duty on wood pulp and
paper, and which recommendation tha ways
and means committee adopted.
Mr. Mann aaid that tha committee In
the face of the impending campaign last
summer, when It might have been claimed
that a report from the committee reducing
the tariff would have been pf Inestimable
benefit to tha republicans, declined to "be
influenced . b ythe newspaper clamor in
favor of reduction of the tariff."
. In Its final report, ha declared also that
the committee declined to be unduly in
fluenced by the demanda of tha manufac
turers. It was -but Just for hlro to say,
he remarked, that not only himaelf, tout
the other members of the committee. In
making their report acted according to
What they believed was right, "uninflu
enced by tha demands of tha newspapers
on tha on hand or by tha demanda of the
manufacturers on tha other." Whether the
report waa right or wrong, ha said, "the
committee did what It promised to do and
that waa to make a report according to
tha light it received, according to its beat
and honest Judgment.'
Charging that tha Payne bill maintained
high duties on food and clothing, Mr.
O'Conoell (Visas.) said that tha meaaure
was a Mow at the American home, the
American breakfast table, the American
woman. Tha American woman has never
yet appealed to her husband, father,
brother or. son for relief, but that her ap
peal haa been quickly heeded, ha declared.
He disoussed at length tha Otrlff on tea.
coffee, cocoa aad other articlv of food
and aaid that the Payne bill should have
reduced the duties on cotton and wool
clothing.

fFrom a Staff Correspondent)
LINCOLN, March 31. (Special.) It 1s
evident that Robert Beecher Howell ac
tually bellevea that some day the Water
board tif Omaha will take over the water
plant there for the city or he haa an idea
In hla head that Omaha will some day own
its own water works plant. This is based
on the fact that the former senator is
anxious for the passage of 8. F. S93, by
Donohoe of Holt, which has passed the
senate and which is now :n the hands of
the sifting committee.'
The bill provides that every city or vil
lage which owns its own water plant may
levy a tax against every lot in front of
which water mains have been laid. This
tsx Is to be known as the frontage water
tax, and it cannot be more than 2tt cents
per front foot.
Before the tax la levied the dry council
or other board having charge of the matter
shall make the fact public and give the
property owner an opportunity to pro
test. The tax shall be a lien, on the prop
erty. The bill was sent to Senator Donohoe by
Harvey Newbranch of the World-Herald,
and given him. as was said at the time,
because he had not any hope the aenatora
from Douglas county coulo get it through
for htm.
Open Primary BUI Pasaea.
It is now 'up to Governor Bhallcnbergsr
to say whether he Is willing for the polit
ical parties of Nebraska to be disrupted
or at the mercy of persona who refuse to
make known their political affiliations.
The Ollis primary bill which provides that
any voters may participate In a primary
and be permitted to vote for the ticket he
desires regardless of his own party affilia
tions passed the house this morning. It
had already passed the senate.
Had the bill now up to the governor been
In effect last year It might have been
Mayor Dahlman instead of Governor Bhal
lenberger ln the executive chair,-for, the
mayor might have been able to secure a
big republican vote In Omaha which would
have offset the populist and democratic
votes Bhallenberger received out In the
state. As Governor Sheldon had no oppo
sition It was not necessary for many re
publicans to vole for him to make the nom
ination. Ncttleton of Clay, who two yeare ago ad
vocated the open primary, announced on
the floor of the house that he realised he
had made a mistake two yeara ago on that
proposition and he warned the democrats
they would regret It If the bill became a
law. It was pointed out that where there
waa only one candidate for an office. It
would be an easy matter for members of
a different political party to go In end
nominate for the opponents a weak man.
But this had no effect.
et Wetaht oa Par Vases.
The aenate disagreed wtih the house over
net weights and amended the bill by Smith
of Cass which the house sent over so
worded as to conform to the branding sec
tion of the national pure food law. Sen
ator King made a hard fight to secure the
amendment and on the final roll call, on a
motion by Tanner to leave the bill as the
house fixed It up. the proposition to com
pel net weisjht branding carried. 21 to II.
The amended bill provldea goods are mis
branded if aold for use in Nebraska in
package form, if every such package as
provided and named below does not bear
a correct statement clearly printed on the
outside of the main label of tha contenta
and also of the net weight or measure of
the contents, exclusive of the container,
viz: all dairy products, meat and meal
products, wheat products, ost products snd
corn products, and mixtures, prepared or
unprepared, sugar, syrup and molasses, tea,
coffee, canned, dried and preserved fruit.
Provided, however, that the provision shall
not appiy to packagea put up by tha re-
taller nor to packagea on hand by a retailor
at the time of taking effect of thia act."
The amendment waa opposed by Sena
tors Ttbbetta. Ranaora and Howell, who
showed that the proposed requirements
went further than even Joe Johnson had
gone In hla edicts as to fopd commissioner.
The section of the bill permitting bleaohed
flour was unchanged.

Greater Navy Is
Demanded at Big
London Meeting
Sentiment of Assemblage Is That Eng.
land Can Maintain Peace Only
With Better Defense.
LONDON, March St. A, crowded meeting,
typical of those being held everywhere in
England now, for a greater navy, assem
bled at the Guild hall this afternoon under
tha auspices of the London Chamber of
Commerce. The lord mayor tf London
acted as chairman, and be was supported
by several hundred men womlnent in fi
nancial, coraercial and "iff fslative circles.
The speeches all aero of one tenor. The
sentiments of tho meeting were accurately
voiced by Sir James Fortesque-Flannery
in this sentence:
"Great Britain can only walk in peace
with Germany provided our preparations
for naval defense are absolutely beyond
suspicion superior to Its."
A. J. Balfour made a stirring appeal for
the Immediate laying down of four addi
tional Dreadnoughts In which he fore
shadowed that the naval program for 1910
would have to be for eight ahlps Irrespect
ive of the four conditional vessels. In which
case Great Britain, unless the government
yielded to the popular demand, faced the
necessity of building a round dosen Dread
noughts during the coming yesr. Mr.- Hal-
four dwelt with emphaats upon the fact
that both tha United States snd Germany
were expending more then Great Britain
thia year on naval construction. Resolu
tions pledging the government all the fi
nancial support necessary to provide Im
mediately four extra Dreadnoughts were
passed by acclamation.

BULLETIN.
KANSAS CITY, March Sl.-Up to 1:15
o'clock this afternoon no positive news had
been received from Oklahoma, confirming
the reported capture of Crasy Snake. It
is possible and even likely that the chief
may. have been caught at some outlying
point by an independent squad and is being
taken secretly to the federal prison at
Muskogee to allay excitement, but this can
not be slated to be a fact.
HENRY ETTA, Okl.. March 81 -The re
port that Crazy Snake haa been captured
or surrendered Is not confirmed this morn
ing. Colonel Hoffman telephoned from
Pierce todsy thst the rumor wss ground
less. The Associated Press obtained sim
ilar reports over the long' distance tele
phones from Checotah, Muskogee and
Thompson.
Deputy sheriffs traveling In posses and
ths militia under Colonel Hoffman today
resumed the search for the Creek leader
at dawn. Colonel Hoffman's detachment
apent the night In their blankets in the
open four miles from Stidham. The
weather waa damp and chilly and huge fog
fires were insufficient to protect them from
the cold. Colonel Hoffman, when Informed
of the report thst the Indian leader has
been captured expressed great surprise.
The old chief might be spprehehded in
some out-of t-he-way apot by some stray
posse without his knowing it, the colonel
said, but It certainly had not occurred
within the district occupied by the troops.

it will be Breen against Dahlman In tha
city election.
The long list of candidates, tha rotated
ballot snd jlls opcD until S o'clock st
night made the results of tha Omaha city
primal late' In coining In, - and kept' the
winners of tho close contests in suspense
until the last moment.
In a few cases the outcome may yet re
quire the official .count and possibly a re
count.
It'was a big Vote, considering the num
ber of hours the polls wsru open, the bal
lots coming in thick and fast In tha clos
ing hours.
On the republican side nearly 7,500 votes
were polled and on the democratic aids
more than 4,600, making a total of ap
proximately 12.000, equal to 60 per cent of
the registered vote.
For mayor on the republican aide John
P. Breen haa won out. but by a com
paratively, small margin. Hla chief com
petitor, Harry B. Zlmman, having run
strong everywhere, but having fallen be
cause of the light vote In the downtown
wards.
The surprise of the primary Is tha num
ber of votes polled by Palmer, who waa
not even present In the city to conduct
his own canvass, ha running third with
over 1,500 votes to his eredit.
On the democratic aide, Mayor "Jim"
had practically a walk-away, snowing un
der Barryman and the Jacksonian mav
ericks by nearly 1 to 1.
Below the heed of the ticket, th repub
licans have sprung some surprises while
the democrats hsve renominated almost to
a man the entire present city hall roster.
