DETAILS OF RUIZ SUICIDE GUARDED English Authorities Refuse to Revaal Results of Inquiry, London, June 14—The authorities have formally refused to reveal the contents of the depesitions taken in connection with the suicide of Mrs. Marie Ruiz, friend of Mr. Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, around whose death an effort was made to throw a veil of secrecy. The coroner declared the case was closed, that there was absolutely no evidence of foul play and that it would serve no good interest to ex- pose the motives that prompted tho sujecide. One of the two reporters who ob- tained possession of the facts of the case admits that he was paid a large sum for suppressing the story. It is estimated that the “mysterious Amer- ican,” who attended to the work of sealing up the affair, spent $25,000 in his task. This is a greater sum than any member of the Ruiz family is sup- posed to have possessed and is con- sidered proof that the person or per- sons most interested in the affair were ‘wealthy. Testimony All Taken. Bap Francisco, June 14.—The taking of téstimony in the Calhoun case gbruptly terminated, the defense an- nouncing a desire to submit the case to 9 'y without argument.

USUAL ORDER REVERSED Neison of Minnesota Speaks In Favor of Duty on Sago Flour, Now on Fres List, in Order to Proteot Potato In- dustry—Overman (N. C.) Wants Immigrant Head Tax and Abroga- ' tion of Duty on Trust Controlled Articles. ‘Washington, June 14.—Considera- tlon of the free list of the tarift bill was resumed by the senate after & speech by Senator Overman, who characterized the Payne-Aldrich bill as one of the most iniquitous tariff bills ever passed by congress, if the bill is passed.

The paragraph relating to crude potash, potash carbonate and caustic Dotash was agreed to, Senator Clark of Wyoming reserving permission to offer a further amendment to the para- 8rgph if he should desire to do so. Upon motion of Mr. Aldrich radium Wwas placed upon the free list. An Opening for Aldrich. Reversing the usual order of debate Bepator Nelson led an effort on the Fnt of some of the progressive Re- publieans for a duty on sago flour, WBMh is now on the free list. Their ! was to protect the potato in- les in their states and he de- ped that sago flour comes into com- on with starch made from pota- d from corn. =T attempt to revise the tariff pward s not justified,” said Mr. Al- oh, who added that it had been shown that there was a combination ta the starch industry. “Whether there is a starch trust or Bot I do ndt know,” said Mr. Nelson, Who proceeded to tell of a section of nesota which was productive of potatoes and not produective of ugh else. Replying, Mr. Aldrich said if the e¢timittee on finance had brought in & proposition to tax an article mot faised in this country to protect some Brticle with which it comes in com- ition it would have been denounced as an indefensible position. The tide of events was turned when Senators Frye and Burrows, wha have starch industries in their states, ot the objection of Mr. Aldrich that this article was used for food by offering an amendment placing tapi- 0go and -sage flour on the free list “when used for food,” so that when fised in competition with starch it would pay a duty of 1 cent a pound or of 20 per cent ad valorem. The compromise was accepted by the finance committee. Duluth Copper Exchange Opens. Duluth, June 14—The new Duluth Copper Stock Exchange was opened here in the new Commereial building.
