May I.-Prcdlctlng that a failure to pass a tariff hill providing liiv.tr duties on Imports would provoke a political contest for another revision of the tirirf. Senator Cummins of Iowa delivered a notable speech In tho senato today. "The bill now before us " a:ild Mr. Cum- ' nilna. "will not he accepted hy those who have favored a revlalon of the tariff at either a fulfillment of tne party pledge or aa a settlement of the controversy. Tf this bill, or anything substantially like It. be comes a law. I predict that a campaign for lower dutlts will begin the moment the ex traordinary session of coKrss adjourn, ind will continue with increasing teal until the Judgment entered In the court of the public conscience 1 ' also entered In the . journals of congress. "It gives me no plenaure to utter thle prophecy, ' for I have, earnestly hoped the levldon now In progress would end the dispute1 for year to come, and thnt th business of the country would enjoy the pen.ee and tranquility which la Impossible during the existence of a movement to ma terially change duties' upon Imports. "Who Inaleted upon tariff revision? It was not the manufacturers: It was not the lumber man: It was not the coal man: It waa not the Iron and steel man; It was . not the glass man; It waa not the cotton or th woolen man; tt Was not the oil man. During the. whole agitation. I never heard . you never heard demand from those people that the tariff must be revised. Th demand came from those who be lleved that the duties upon many article .and commodities were too high; from those v fwho believed they were paying too much for the thlnga they bad to buy. and that eicesalva Import duties, coupled with other eondltjons, were enabling a favored few !a reap 'inordinate profit, and, therefore, they wanted, as one pf the stepe lending to the remedy which they sought, tial reduction of those duties a. uMta li ft Is not necesbitfy'-t-trd vmtnwew to inquire many' people so believed, or In what part "of the country they lived. Heal Demand' for Redaction. "I have heard . it said over and over since we began this discussion, not of course In' public debate, but In private con versation, that there ar but few people comparatively who, were Interested In a reduction of duties. 1 know that the voices of those who are clamoring for an Increase of custom house taxation are more distinctly heard In the corridor and com-mli-re rooms, but there will come a time presently when tne ciamor 01 u.c ,.. who want relief will aound like tne roar of a thousand Niagara from one wean to the other. 1 have heard It said many times that those people who were Insisting on tariff revision were not familiar with the subject, d d " opportunity to know whether duties were too high or too low. "This distrust or skepticism of the Judg ment of the common man Is a fundamental mistake often made and always atoned for In sack rlolh and ashes. The people. It Is true, have not the advantage of hearing the specific statements of the administra tion, of Interested beneficiaries and wit nesses who have filled and overfilled the capital during these month In which the subject has been under consideration." The people, he said, have seen the forces of competition grsdunlly weakened In the larger fields of Industry through concen tration, combinations, agreements and "all the at her modern mechanism which an In genious age has discovered." ' Tariff Aid to Combination. Continuing, he said: "They have seen competition shut out of Krue of these fields by th Intervention of excessive Import duties. They have left tho Injustice of the dlacrlmlnatlona which the vast power of our transportation sys tems can Inflict. , They knew that these things werr wrong; and after bearing the burden until It became Intolerable, they begun to move with Irresistible strength Jong the pathway of reform. They have mail some progieta toward the regulation of transportation and the repression of cor I'oiate rvlls. Tho last administration will be remembered, so long ks the history of our country fit preserved, for Its victories in the struggle tor rste regulation aud for corporate fair dealing. "The work has Just begun and I sin cerely hope the present administration will be no less dlgnlflrd than the last one for ita enenry In dealing with these perplexing problems. One part, however, of the pro gram waa assigned by common consent to this administration, and its conspicuous leader assumed without hesitation the task of tariff revision. The people know what they want with respect to revision Just as well aa they know what they wanted with respect to railways and to Industrial com blnatlons. and their Intelligent, euucaien. patriotic Instinct Is Just as certain with r ..-1 to the tariff as It wss with respect to transportation monopolies. If we fall now to substantially reduce the duties on the Important schedules, we but postpone th Justice due to the people, a Justice which, thanks to the genius of our institu tion, they hsv the power to enforce., and which In the fulness of time they will en fortre." leaning to the consideration of ths lum ber schedule, he nald it made little differ ence whe'her there was a duty or not so far a the preservation of the forests Is concerned. With reepect to the cos of production. In the greater part of the United mates st least, he said, the American had Ihe advantage of the Canadian, and a duty was only necessary to equalise a disparity n rates of transportation. Commending the course of his colleague. (Continued, on Second Page.) Demand for Action I From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON. May . (Special- Tele gram. t-r-Benator Burkett has submitted an amendment to the pending tariff bill of very great Interest to breeders of blooded live- tock In this country. Under the Dlngley bill It Is provided an Importer of blooded animals for breeding purposes Is allowed to bring such animals" In free of duty, whether Intended to be u-d by the direct Importer In his own . stud or to sell the Imported animal later. The pending tsriff bill, as reported to the senate from the finance committee, restricts such Importations of animals of blooded and registered stock io free entry only when the direct Importer shall certify that he desires the. animal or animals for breed ing purposes upon his own ranch and will greg not to sell such snlmal or animals. Senator Burkett'a amendment aeeks to restore the Dlngley law Insofar as It affects the Importation of blooded stock for breeding purposes. The Payne bill aa It came to the senate contained this provi sion: "Any animal Imported by a clttsen of the United States specially for breeding purposes shall be admitted1 free, whether intended to be used by the Importer him self or for sale for such purpose." Should the Burkett amendment not pre vail the Importer of recognized "blooded" stock could not bring them In free unless he should make affidavit that he Intends such animals only for his own use upon his stock or breeding farm. Should he afterward sell such blooded animal he would be held to pay the government an ad valorem duty of 2S per cent. The free entry of registered stock for breeding purposes Is recognized throughout the west, at least, as being most desirable. Under the provisions of the Dlngley bill the live stock of the ranges and the farms of the west have been producing a superior grade of horses, csttle. hogs and sheep, due to up-breedlng. and the Aldrteh bill as now before the senate would prevent a stock raises from Importing a blooded stallion, bull, boar or ram unless he should swear such animal Is for his own use on his ranch or farm and not for sale. Roosevelt Would Wait for Japan to Stop Imigration Ex-President Says Small Navy Would Not Prevent War, but Would Prevent Success. NEW . YORK, May . Bx-Preeldant Roosevelt declare, In ,an , irt(ole , In this week's Outlook,"tna't,vlt'' Is the v duty of America to wait and see whether or not Japan succeeds In preventing the Immi gration to this country, of Any appreciable number of Japanese of the laboring and small trading classes. If Japan falls, he writes, this government must protect Itself by treaty or legislation, but he adds: "It would be doubly Incumbent upon us to take the action In the way that would provoke the least possible friction and cause the - least possible hard feeling." Although, he asserts, Americans have the right to say what Immigrants shall come to their shores, they are powerless to enforce that right against any nation that chooses to disregard their wishes. unless "we continue to build up and main tain a first-claas fighting navy." Mr.. Roosevelt adds that "those well meaning, but fatuous advocates of peace, who would try to prevent the upbuilding of our navy, utterly misread the temper of their countrymen." ' America would fight, he says, whether prepared or not, and "all the peace advo cate could do would be to prevent this country from being successful In the war."

JUDGE- TALKS OF THE CASE aya Tears Aero He Knew It Wli Be en re af Aaaeyaaee to Htm Despite What His Decision Might Be. KANSAS CITY. May . -Judge Smith Mc pherson In the federal court here today continued' In force the temporary Injunc tion recently granted by Judge John F. Philips, restraining Blebert Jones, circuit attorney of Bt. Louis, from prosecuting th suit filed by him in the circuit court of that city seeking to restrain the railroads of Missouri from charging a S-eent passen ger rate. No other state officers are in cluded In the Injunction order, which la to remain . In force "until . differently or dered by this count." The order-contained the reservation, however, that supplemental orders might be Issued against other per sons should subsequent events demand such action. ' Judge McPherson said the order did not Include Attorney General Major and the members of the state railroad and ware house commission because they had stated under 'Oath that they had not Inspired or encouraged the St. Louis suit and did not Intend to have anything to do with It In the future. The order applies to all "attorneys, serv ants and employes of Circuit Attorney Jones and therefore applies to John Ken nis and Rush Lake, former assistants ' at torney general of Missouri, without naming them. Mr. Kennlsh, who argued In defense of ths Justice and propriety of the St. Louis suit, objected to the action of . the complainants In citing him and Mr. Lake by name In their petition,' and the court sustained Mr. Kennlsh's contention that an Injunotlon against a client waa also ef fective against his attorneys. Tilt Between Attorneys. "Mr. Hagerman told me t waa named In this suit because he was mad at Governor Hadley. That la the only reason I have ever had for being included," exclaimed Mr. Kennlsh. "Well I had a rlajht to be mad at Mr. Hadley. did I not? I had a letter In my pocket at that time, which the governor had written promising to order the dis missal of the St. Louis suit and hd never did It. The law does not allow us to enjoin the governor, so I wanted to get as near him as possible," interrupted Mr. Hager man. "Res, I am surprised that you did not name his wife In this suit," responded Mr. Kennlsh. Judge Mcpherson based his decision upon the belief that the purpose of the St. Louis suit waa to relltlgate the questions nettled by him In his final decree on the Missouri rate rases lneued March 8. 1909. "That de cree Is the law until It Is reversed." said he, "and It must stand, until It Is reversed by an appellant oourt. It must not be trampled upon either. The only way in which the matters covered In that decree can be relltlgated Is by an appeal or by hearing In this oourt. The attorney gen eral of the state under oath here yesterday Mailed that an appeal from my decree will be taken to the supreme court of the United Slates. I must enjoin the circuit attorney of Bt. IjouIs from prosecuting a oase In St. Louis county, which deals with the same subject matter which was con sidered by my decree." Knpreme Coart to Decide. Judge McPherson referred to the quo warranto suit filed In the state supreme court asking that the railroads be ousted from the state and fined for "agreeing and conspiring to "fix rates" and said: "This court Is entirely willing to allow the su preme court to dispose of that case." The Judge said his court had no right to enjoin the state supreme court. "On the witness stand here yesterday the attorney general said that tf he found that the railroads had violated the law he would drive them all out of the state," continued the Judge. "I do not believe he meant that. I do not think he would be willing to see 40.000 or 60.000 employes of the railroads thrown out o femployment and the people of the state denied railroad conveniences." Judge McPherson prefaced his derision with a statement referring Indirectly to Representative Murphy's resolution In con gress. He said he knew a year ago that the trial of Missouri rate cases would be a source of annoyance to him and that they would do him no personal good. "I could see at that time." he said, "that what ever my decision might be. I would get few compliments, no thanks, but grest criti cisms accompanied by abuse. But I have never had the slightest thought of running away from thla litigation because it proved unpleasant and I do not Intend to run sway now. I have the kindliest feeling for the attorneys on both sides, but I do not think It is proper for counsel to come In here I Dthls proceeding and slate that my final decree was too broad."

LONG REPLY TO HAGERMAN Calls on Colleaarae, ' Who Asserts Philips Shoald Have Beea Oasted Twenty Years Ago. WASHINGTON. May 4 At the eonclu lon of a lengthy statement In the. house today regarding his resolution of Inquiry into the official conduct of "Federal Judges McPhron and. Philips of the western dis trict of Missouri. tVepcesentatlve Murphy of that state anHuunj-ed fhkt he would present formal charges -ef Impeachment. Mr Murphy brought the matter tip as a question of personal privilege, : Mr. Murphy had read some newspaper dispatches to the effect that Frank Hager man, attorney for eighteen railroads, had telegraphed the attorney general of the United States alleging that the . charges in the Murphy . resolution was "an outra geous tissue of mlsreprpsentatio.i by one who has no knowledge of the facts." Mr. Clayton of Alabama, a member of the Judiciary committee, objected, saying the argument was not one of personal privilege. Speaker Cannon ruled that Mr. Murphy was within his rights and could continue. but he had not proceeded far when Mr. Henry of Texas, another member of th Judiciary committee, stopped him with an Inquiry as to whether he did ont Intend to formally bring In charges of Impeachment. The Missouri member did not, however, give a direct answer, but continued his re cital of the charges contained In his reso lution. He called on Mr. Rucker, his col league, to substantiate what he was say ing. Rneker Hits Philips. Mr. Rucker did so, declaring that Judge Philips should have been impeached twenty years ago. Several times Mr. Payne, the majority leader, objected, saying that Mr. Murphy could not yield for debate. Later he again objected on the ground that Mr. Murphy was traveling outside the Issue raised by the Hagerman telegram and the preamble of the resoultion. Again, in passing upon the reaolution. Speaker Cannon ruled in favor of Mr. Murphy, remarking that "the telegram is pretty broad." Continuing, Mr. Murphy dented that the state of Missouri had been accorded every courtesy In the rate raacs, as was stated In Mr. Hagerman's telegram. The state, he declared, had no knowledge or notice whatever of the first Injunction in those cases. "I am asking the -congress of the United States," he said, "to give bark to us that government which you handed to us when you admitted us aa a state In the union by requiring the federsl Judiciary In the western district of Missouri to proceed along orderly and decent lines In the exe cution of the law."

Indirectly." such -eubei-dlary corporations. ' ' In preempting the-bill Mr.-Bailey said he had . not read the opinion of the oourt In htis case, but he had read enough to see that It "sustained the principles upon which the commodity clause was based," and the decision showed that the act did not cover all those cases that he knew .the author Intended It to cover. "The court held that the act did not In clude cases In which railroads own stock of a corporation which produoes or -manufactures the articles to be transported," said Mr. Bailey, "and the amendment I now propose Is intended to remedy that refeot If defect It was. Those . who were responsible .for that amendment to the Hepburn act felt that the words "directly or Indirectly," covered every possible con tingency, but In view of the decision of the court It seems necesasry to change that language." Mr. Culberson saying he had the com modities clause decision snd thst ha In tended asking to have It printed as a document, Mr. Bailey withdrew his bill, so that before Introducing It he might read the full opinion.

WASHINGTON, May But smnll progress was mnde In the consideration of the tariff bill by the senate todny, tile lead schedule being under discussion. Senator Brltow made a strong fight aplnut increncus In the rats of the schedules over the duties provided In the house on the ground that such Increases would Increase the cost of paint, which the farmers use extensively. Imrlng tne discussion Senators Beverldgj and Gallinger engaged In a sharp colloquy, during which Mr. Onlllngnr accused the Indiana senator of "advertising his own wares."

At fi o'clock the senate adjourned, ac cording to an agreement to dlscontinuH work on the bill dally at that hour for ono week. Lend Xcbedales Taken Up. The consideration of the tariff bill for action on the amendments was again today taken up In the senate. The lead schedule was still pending and an agreement was reached to consider It as a whole and not paragraph by paragraph. Senator lirlstow renewed his attack upon the schedule. He began by asking for information as to why the duty on white lead was higher than that on pig lead. Mr. Aldrich re plied that this difference was due to the fact that while pig load costs 24 cents white lead costs 6H cents a pound, the white lead being a product of pi gload re quiring much labor and an elaborate pro cess. Senator Gaybum spoke on the lead In dustry and In favor of the duty provided In the senate committee amendment. Without a duty, he said, the lead mines In this country would be abandoned until the cheaper lead deposits of Mexico shauld be exhausted. ,', . , . Protest from RevrWdgeu '" Mr. Beverldge arose to . protest against , haste when a vote wss called for on tho lead schedule, saying the senate was not Justified In such histe when senators were Inquiring In respect to the reasons for adopting the. proposed rates. He reminded his colleagues that the tariff bill would be a matter to be con sidered before the people and he snld. "those who are now demanding vote will not be the ones who will be oh the battlefield repelling Ihe fire of questions." Mr. Oalllnger letorted that the senator from Indiana was not the only on who would bo on the b-Jttleflcld. Ho Charged that Mr. Heveridgo was bringing his own political affairs Into the discussion. Upon Mr. Beverldgo's disclaiming that lie was so doing Mr. Oalllnger retorted. "The senator from Indiana never falls to ad vertise his wares." "They are republican wares," promptly responded Mr. Hoverldge. "and I am wear In; out my life In this labor." ' Some other lives were worn out before you apieared," retorted Mr. Gallnger. "I expect to defend this bill in Ihe thick of the political fight before the jieople." said Mr. Iteverldge. "and I want to kmw something about It." ' nrlitnn Demands Hearing. Mr. BrlKtow, rising as soon as Mr. Beverldge hud taken his seat, remarked: "For the third time a voto has been called for on this paragraph while I have In-en attempting to get the. recognition of the chair." Then, speaking in an Impassioned manner, he continued : "1 am a new member here, and perhaps It Is considered that I have no right to be heard, but I am hern Just as are others who have been members of the sciiBte for thirty years, and 1 have the same con stitutional ritrlit to be heard that thy have." Then, with greit emotion, Mr. Brtstow added: "With the help of what physical strength I have I Intend to be heard un less I am out of order according to the rules of this body." Mr. Bristow then continued to discuss the lead schedule, and a vote was not ordered.
