PHILIPPINE IPORTS CUT Number of Cigars to Be Allowed Free Entry Annually Reduced From 150, 000,000 to 70,000,000 on Representa- tions of New England Senator—Al- drich Defends the Course Taken by the Committee. ‘Washington, June 16.—That the senate committee on finance has been engaged in playing “a game of petty. politics” was deflantly charged: in the senate by Senator Burkett of Ne- braska. The assertion was made in connection wi‘h a report by the com- mittee reducing fregn 150,000,000 to 70,000,000 the number of cigars which may be imported free of duty annual- ly from the Philippines. This change was the result or\representntlons by Senator Bulkeley of Connecticut, with an important product of whose state the Philippine tobaceo importation would conflict. Senator La Follette had previously presented an amend- ment reducing the number to 75,000, 000 and the Nebraska senator found in the action of the committee a dis- crimination in favor of Bulkeley against La Follette. This was the reason for Senator Bulkeley’s out- burst and he spoke with apparently strong feeling. As soon as the . committee' had brought in its amendment Senator La Follette took the floor, expressing gratification that the finance commit- tee had reduced the number of free clgars to the extent of 5,000,000 less than was called for by his amend- ment. Mr. La Follette' said he was en- couraged to chenge his amendment so as to provide for the admission of only 60,000,000 and he did so. Committee Roundly Denounced. It was then that Mr. Burkett took the floor. Roundly denouncing the finance committee” he declared that its action in making changes in the Philippine amendment was sufficient to cause senators to lose confidence in it. The original amendment, he said, had been brought into the senate as approved by the president, but in the face of that fact the committee had brought in this recommendation for a reduction to 70,000,000 in accord- ance with Mr. Bulkeley’s request. He pointed out that the number was 5, 000,000 below the reduction called for by the La Follette amendment and in this circumstance found cause for complaint. “This,” he said, “Is a mat- ter too important to juggle with and it looks to me like a game of petty politics.” “There is no mystery about it,” pro- tested Mr. Aldrich;, “and no polities except a desire on the part of the committee to do the right thing and, ahove everything else, to pass this bilL” Further replying to the criticisms Mr. Aldrich sald: “There are some men whose condemnation is the high- est commendation.” He declared he | had done his duty in reference to this bill and commended the course taken by the Republican members of his eommittee. He added that he did not object to senators taking a course to conform to their own views. The committee would change its views, he said, when senators could bring forth any testimmony to show that the com- mittee had made a mistake. AGREE ON PAPER SCHEDULE Senate Committee Decides on a Duty L] of $4 Per Ton. ‘Washington, June 16.—Wood pulp and print paper were agaln the sub- Ject of conmsideration on the part of the Republican members of the sen- ate committee on finance. No vote was taken, but the expression was so centralized that there is no longer much doubt as to the recommenda- tions which the committee will make. The duty on paper will be fixed at $4 per ton, which is a compromise be- tween the house rate of $2 and the $6 rate of the present law. The inclina- tlon in the past has been to admit pulp free, but the committee practic- ally decided to place a duty of one, twelfth of a cent per pound on pulp coming -from countries which impose a countervailing duty on like articles imported into those countries from us or hamper the free exportation of their wood products to this country.

A Bonk on Twe Li “For more thau thirty years the most popular woodsman’s bank in Maine was a bank on two legs,” says Major Holmes Day, author of “King Spruce”” “Until he was over seventy years old Uncle Nate Swan was con- ductor on the Bangor and Piscataquis railroad, running between the city and Moosehead lake. With him rode the woods and driving crews.: When they forgot themselves and made a racket on his train he used to cuff them into submission, and no man ever raised his hand against Uncle Nate. When the men came out of the woods with their pay most of them realized from bitter experience that the city folks would get all their money away from them in a few days. As soon as they would get aboard the train they would begin to strip ten dollar bills off thelr rolls and hand the money to Uncle Nate to ‘sink’ for them, banking it on call. They never forgot, nor did he, and In all the years there was never a dispute between Conductor Swan and any of his depositors. When they came back on his train they were sure of enough money for their fare and their tobacco at the lake outfitting store. They wouldn’t have known very ‘well what to do with more.” 7 Her Ideal Villain. The following gnecdote, taken from “My Story,” by Hall Caine, is interest- ing: Immediately after the production of “The Woman In White,” when all England was admiring the arch vil- lainy of Fosco, the author, Wilkie Collins, received a visit from a lady who congratulated him upon his suc- cess’ with somewhat icy cheer and then said: “But, Mr. Collins, the great failure of your book is your villain. Excuse me if T say you really do not know a villain. Your Count Fosco is a very poor one, and when next you trpst that you will not disdain to come to me.
