! FoWE TARIFF BILL NOW UP TO SENATORS Provisions Advocated By The Presi- dent Remain In Bill As Recom- mended For Passage RETAIN ALL OF WILSON’S IDEAS Measure Repo.rted By Finance Committee With Income Tax Sections Changed ‘Washington, July 12.—In the amend- ed tariff bill reported to the senate by the finance committee wheat, wheat flour and other wheat products are on the free list, with a proviso that wheat shall be subject to a countervailing duty of 10 cents a bushel; wheat flour, 456 cents a barrel, and other wheat products 10 per cent ad valorem When imported from countries impos- ing a duty on wheat, flour or wheat products. The free list includes also flax straw, flax not dressed, hemp and hemp tow; also rye and rye flour. Oats are taxed 6 cents a bushel and balley 15 cents a bushel. All meat products are on the free list, as well as hogs, cattle and other meat food producing domestic animals. Furs are taxed, although the house members from Minnesota made a strong fight in the house to have then placed on the free list. The fur tax 1s 20 per cent ad valorem on fura dressed on the skin, not further ad- vanced than dyeing; 15 per cent ad valorem on fur articles of wearing ap- parel partly or wholly manufactured out of cattle, dog and goat skins, with 46 per cent ad valorem on other fur articles of clothing. The Minnesota senators, it is under- stood, will endeavor to have furs placed on the free list, in accordance with the fight made by the house members. As 1t goes to the senate the bill re- tains the principal provisions of the house measure and those particularly advocated by President Wilson, free raw wool and a provision that sugar shall be free May 1, 1916.

This is explained in figures received by the insular affairs bureau of the war department by the fact that the increase was in exports from America and was at the expense of foreign ex- porters’ trade. American goods en- tered the Philippines free of duty and the customs revenues suffered propor- tionately. While the increase in American im- ports was greatest in wheat flour, the imports in Southern cotton cloths grew from 51 to 70 per cent. Alto- gether the imports from the United States were valued at $20,000,000, com- pared with $16,500,000 during the cor- responding period of last year.

INDIANS DO TURKEY TROT Young Braves Abandon War Dances for Modern Steps. Reno, Nev, July 12—A thousand Shoshone Indians are gathered at .| Lee, Elko county, for the annual five- day fete, which is celebrated because game is abundant and fishing is good. While the old tribal rites are observed “there is one innovation and that a very modern one. The tribal dance has given way to the turkey trot. Tomtoms are rele- gated to the background; no snake dances are seen no weird songs sung. Instead, the strain of “Hitchy Koo” and “The Robert E. Lee” are filling the air. The older men may grunt their disapproval, but the younge: geheration is progresive. PAUL CRAVATH. T\e-tlfln Before Grand Jury in .Lamar Case.
