TENDON. Auk. 17-An Industrial "r has
been declared, and the employe, on all the
railway line, of the United Kingdom will
be called out at once.
Day-long conference, at tha Board of
Trade proved fruitless. The report, of tha
unions wer. firm In their contention that
the manager, of the railroad, had broken
the letter and violated tha spirit of th
conciliation agreement.
Jame. Menry Thomas, secretary of the
western dlHtrlct of the Amalgamated So
ciety of Hallway Servants, stated tonight
that there would be no truce between tha
unions aJid the railway manager., despite
the efforts of Chancellor Uoyd George, and
that the strike would go on.
The society sent out 1,5"0 telegrams this
afternoon to various railway centers order
ing an Immediate etrike.
LONDON, Aug. 17-The time limit of
twenty-four hours within which the rail
way men demanded that their employers
agree to consider their grievance, expired
at S o'clock this morning, but th threat
ened strike on the railroads of the United
t.-i. .,!.., railed to materialise. Instead
representatives of the four railway societies
Involved went Into conference with the
board of trade.
Traffic proceeded as usual. No formal
orders were given the union men by their
leaders, but apparently It was generally
understood a truce would be observed while
negotiations with the board of trade con
tinued. Following the failure of the strike nego
tiations today the military maneuvers have
been suspended everywhere and troops are
speeding to strike centers from all direc
tions. A whole brigade of guards with
machine guns has returned to London.
It was asserted tonight that unless mat
ters were arranged In the Interim a cewsn-
. f ,w in th whole transrjort trade
" - ' ,
OI tne uniiwi iuhbuuiu " w v,u.vu
next Tuesday. It Is estimated that 600,000
men will obey th order.
'We have unanimously coma to the con
clusion." they told Bydney Buxton, presi
dent of the Board of Trade, "that the
only way that will now be an. effective
fSad to peace Is that the companies shall
consent to meet us."
Premier Offer to Aid.
It was at this point that Premier As
qulth Intervened and offered to appoint
Immediately a royal commission, which
should Investigate and report what amend
ments. If any, were desirable for th con
ciliation plan.
Mr. Asqulth made the same proposition
to the railroad managers, adding the con
fident hope that the government might
rely on both sides to give all possible aa
Klatance to the proposed commission.
The representatives of the union accepted
the proffer of the premier to appoint th
commission. The railway managers con
sented to the plan.
The leaders In the Amalgamated Society
of Railroad Servant this evening dis
patched telegrams throughout the country
ailing on the men to cease work.
ADMIRAL TOGO LAID UP .
WITH ACUTE INDIGESTION
BOSTON, Aug. 17. An attack of acute
Indigestion declared by his attendants to be
slight, caused the cancellation of the pro
gram of entertainment In honor of Admiral
Togo, the Japanese naval officer here to
day. The proposed trip of the admiral to
Provlncetown to receive the courtesies of
the United States fleet at that point Is also
abandoned.
The admiral became 111 after he had re
tired last night.
Captain . Templln" M. Potts, of the navy
department paid that the admiral was In

ered the attack due to his strenuous pro
gram of the last few days. No doctor was

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17-Tha senate and
house oenferea on th state question today
reached a complete agreement to eliminate
tha judiciary recall feature of th Artson
constitution an dto provide for making th
New Mexico constitution easier of amend
ment. This agreement la said to conform
to President Taft'a wishes and undoubtedly
means statehood fo rth two territories this
session.
The La Follette compromise cotton tariff
revision bill sprung as substitute for
what had been th pending house bill and
all amendments adapted by the senate
today was defeated by th esenate, U to 10,
by a combined vote of democrats and reg
ular republicans. Insurgent republican,
cant all th evotes In Its favor.
Th bouse cotton tarlffreviston bill, with
th iron and steel, cotton machinery, chem
ical and coal stipulations Included, was
then voted on. Tha vote stood 29 to 19, but
Mr. Cummins immediately held up decision
by raising the question whether members
present and not voting should not be re
quired to stat their position. Th Mil waa
declared passed by 2 to Si. It carries
amendments revising tha tariff schedules
on Iron and steal, cotton manufacturing
machinery and chemicals.
Democrats Dlaron-nrd Cases,
Another poTtttonl chaotic condition In th
senate developed when th democrats, dis
regarding caucus notion and through de
liberate aid of tha regular republicans, put
through a steel and Iron amendment of
fered by Mr. Bacon of Georgia to th cot
ton tariff revision bill.
Progressive republicans voted against th
Bacon amendment, though it was Identical
with th Cummins proposed amendment,
because of th Implied breach of faith In
tha detnocratlc-progreeslve-republlcajQ al
liance.
When th house bill was about to be
finally acted on Senator La Follette sprung
his substitute to tak the place of the
original bill and various amendments. Re
ferring to the Insurgent-democratic break
he declared that th democrats wer In the
minority in th senate and could not con
trol legislation.

New Guaranty Law
Does Away.witliBonds
County Attorney Strode of Lancaster
Renders Opinion on This Phase
of the Case.
LINCOLN. Neb., Aug. IT. (Special Tele
gram.) According to am opinion rendered
to the county treasurer of Lancaster
county by County Attorney Stroke, banks
designated as county depositories and
which have compiled with the now effec
tive bank guaranty act will not In the
future be required to furnish a bond for
county funds which they have on deposit.
The opinion was rendered In response to
a request from a University Place bank,
and further set out that banks operating
under the new law are not entitled to
have tha bonds returned to them for can
celation. This applies to bonds given for
the current year, previous to the tlma th
bank guaranty act went Into effect.
This phase of tha new law provoked con
siderable discussion when the McOrew
amendments to the new banking act were
under discussion In tha legislature last
winter.
George Hall of Franklin, democratic
candidate last year for state treasurer,
finally came forward with provisions re
lating to dispensing with ths double pro
tection for public fund, and his recom
mendations were Incorporated In tha bill
before It ran the legislative gauntlet.

Matter.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 17. Dr. H. W.
Wiley, tha pure food expert, added another
sensation to the house Inquiry Into Agricul
tural department affairs today, when ha
declared that a ruling adverse to the so
called "corn syrup manufacturing Inter
ests" promulgated by the bureau of chem
istry, tha food and drug Inspection board
and Secretary Wilson himself had suddenly
been changed Into a favorable opinion
without being referred to him or his as
sociates.
Upon resuming th wltnss stand today.
Dr. Wiley placed In evidence the letter
written by Secretary Wilson April 24, 1907,
notifying him of tha appointment of Dr.
Dunlap aa associate ctremlrt. This la the
letter which., Pr., WUry ln.terpreted rnater
dar as giving Dr. Dunlap authority greater
than his own.
Secretary Wllson'a letter directed Dr.
Wiley to extend to Dr. Dunlap all the
facilities for examining tha correspondence
of tha bureau of chemistry, for "overlook
ing all experiments," and for making what
ever Independent Investigations ha cared to
make. Secretary Wilson announced In the
letter that he had decided to create the
board of food and drug inspection, and
that he would 'look to you (Dr. Wiley)
for the facts and to Mr. McCabe for the
law."

Returning to Dr. Wiley's testimony that
he had never been informed of the exact
charges made against him before the per
sonnel board. Representative Floyd of
Arkansas asked if he had received any
statements from the personnel board untU
the final notice that he was to resign.
"Up to that time did you have any clear
Idea of tha character of the charges against
your' asked Representative Floyd.
"Nothing whatever," said Dr. Wiley.
Chairman Moss asked Dr. Wiley about
the negotiations that led up to the employ
ment of Dr. H. H. Rusby, which. It was
charged, waa a "secret arrangement."
"Did you personally take this matter to
the secretary of agriculture?" asked Chair
man Moss.
"1 did," said Dr. Wiley.
"Did you explain the terms of the ar
rangement fully to hlraT"
"Yes, sir, I did."
"Waa your gemg to the secretary direct
an unusual proceeding?"
"Oh, no, wa go to him constantly with
such matters."
"You assume the full responsibility for
statements that have been made?" nuked
Chairman Moss.
"I do; tha fuU responsibility rests
with me."
explaining hla part In tha negotiations
with Dr. Rusby, Dr. Wiley said:
"I asked Dr. Blgelow to get Into com
munication with Dr. Rusby and see what
waa tha smallest sum he would work for
and appear In court when w wanted
him to."

NO NEED FOR HASTY ACTION
Commission Will Report Accurate
Data in December.
ITS RATES MAY BE TOO LOW
Mennnv of Protection I Hark Lena
Than Fader Wllaon Aet tndee
Whleh the Wool Indnatry
Snfferod.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 17.-Prsldant TafS
today carried out his threat to veto the
wool tariff bill. In a special message to
the house of representatives ha character
ised the measure aa a blend of an avowed
tariff for revenue and antl-protectlon meas
ure with a professed protection bill.
In explanation of his course President
Taft said the bill waa not In harmony with
the platform on which h was alerted.
Furthermore, he declared that th Ameri
can people are deeply Impressed with tha
conviction that the Interests of tha con
suming publlo can be properly guarded
only by revising the tariff schedules ona
at a time and then "on accurate and scien
tifically acquired Information."
That there la widespread belief that
many of th rate In th wool schedule ar
too high and In excess of any needed pro
tectlon for the wool grower and manufac
turer Is admitted by President Taft, and
he says he shares this belief. Asserting;
that December was the time fixed by both
the republican and democratic parties In
tha last congress for tha submission of
adequate information on schedule K with
a view to Its amendment, the president
says there la no public exigency "requiring
revision In August without adequate In
formation." After promising that the tariff board
will be ready to report In Deoember tho
president argues that failure of the present
bill should not be regarded therefore as
taking away tha only chance for reduction
by this congress.
The meesage will be accepted as an In
dication that no tariff bill prepared In ad
vance of a report of the tariff board on
schedules affected will be signed by tha)
president.
Text of Messaso.
In his message President Taft said:
"I return without my approval house bill
No. 11,019, with a statement of my reasons
for so doing.
"The bill Is an amendment of the existing
tariff law and readjusts the customs duties
Is what Is known aa schedule K, embracing
wMtofand the manufacture of wool.
"I was elected to the presidency as &
candidate of a party which In Ita platform
declared Its aim and purpose to maintain
a protective tariff by "the Imposition of
such duties aa will equal the difference be
tween the cost of production at home and
'abroad, together with a reasonable profit
to American Industries. ' I have always re
garded this language aa fixing the proper
measure of protection at the ascertained
difference between the cost of production
at home and that abroad and have con
strued the reference to the profit of
American Industries as Intended, not to add
a new element to the measure stated or to
exclude from the cost of production abroad
the element of a manufacturers' or pro
ducers' profit, but only to emphasize tho
Importance of Including In the American
cost a manufacturers' or producers' profit
reasonable, according to tha American
standard.
Why Extra Session Waa Cnlled.
"In accordance with a promise made In
the same platform, I called an extra ses
sion of tha sixty-first congress, at which
a general revision of the tariff was mada
and adopted In the Payne bill. It waa
contended by those who opposed the Payna
bill that the existing ratea of the Dlngley
bill were excessive and that the rates
adopted In the revision statute were not
sufficiently reduced to conform to tha
promised measure.
"The great difficulty, however. In dis
cussing the new rates adopted was that
there was no means available by which
Impartial persons could determine what In
fact was the difference In cost of production
between the products of this country and
the same products abroad. The American
public became deeply impressed with tho
conviction that. In order to secure a proper
revision of the tariff In tha future, exact
Information as to tha effect of the nenr
rates must be had and that the evil of log
rolling, or a compromise between advocate
of different protected Industries In fixing;
duties could be avterted and th interest of
the oonsumlng publlo could be properly
guarded, only by revising th tariff, on
schedule at a time.
Tariff Board Crented.
"To help these reforms for th future. I
took advantage of a clause in the Payne
tariff bill enabling ma to create a tariff
board of three members and directed them
to make a glossary and encyclopedia of
terms used In tariff and secure Information
as to tha comparative cost of production
of dutiable articles under the tariff at
home and abroad,"
