Washington, Jan. The fight for tariff revision opened in the house to- lay, when consideration of the metal riff bill was taken up, This is the t of the measures which the demo- atic leaders will attempt to force srough congress. Attacked by the Y lican side as a departure from democratic pledges, and as likely to destruetive to American labor and ustry, the bill encountered five s of stormy debate, which will be resumed tomMOrrow. Accused of Abandoning Farmers. Assertions that the democrats had by not put- agricultural ‘machinery on the list in the bill, were answered by man Underwood of the ways and committee with the retort that t was not a part of the metal chedules in the tariff.

Representative Dalzell, republican of Pennsylvania, epresented the republi- can minority on the ways and means committee, demanded why the demo- crats had not first introduced the wool revision bill. “The metal schedule, he sald, was' “cut to the bone”_in the Payne-Aldrich law of 1909; while the democrats had declared the wool tarift he most unreasonable of all in the tariff code of the country. “Are you afraid to encounter the rged antagonism of the peerless leader?” ne demanded, “or is it not a fact that the magnificent report of the tariff has comvicted you of -insincer- it Wilson a Lightning Change Artist. Mr. Dalzell paid his compliments to nother democratic leader, Governor Woodrow Wilson. He quoted an ar- ed the majority members of the house ways and means committee with power to control the making of all tariff-bills, and the determination of what amend- ments if any, should be permitted in consideration of the bill, “That was written by the then pres- ident of Princeton university,” he said. “That is what he thought at the time he wrote it. What he thinks about it now I do not know, since the gentle- man meantime has hecome distin- guished as the most expert lightning change artist who er by his antics contributed to the joy of a political vaudeville.” Would Stimulate Competition. A crowded house listened for two hours to the opening speech by Rep- resentative Palme: mocrat _ of Pennsylvania, who explained the bill on behalf of the majority members of the ways and means committee. . Palm id the measure would stimulate competition by permitting a slight increase in imports of metal products and would thereby result in somewhat lower prices, He deniod it would have auy effect on wages, or upon established industries in the United States, Will Cause Us to Lose Industries. Representative Fill of Connecucut said that the placing of typewriters, linotype machines, cash registers and other patented articles on the free list as proposed in the bill, would re- sult in the removal of American plants to foreign soil where the goods could be made cheaper, whereas the patents would prevent any reduction in the selling price in the American market. Representative Palmer in- sisted such would not be the outcome. The debate wee limited to speeches for the bill by itepresentatives Pal- mer, Bartlett of Georgia and Under- wood; and speeches against it by Rep- resentatives Dalzell, Crumpacker (In- diana) and Austin (Tennessee.) M'NAMARA’S LAWYER ON WJTNESS STAND Refused to Testify Until Compelled by Court to Do So. Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 26—Facts about J. J. McNamara's expense in yayving his “dynamiting crew” and in buying explosives to blow up “open shop” structures, for more than two veais before his arrest, were made avaflable for the federal grand jury today through Leo M. Rappaport, for- merly an attorney for McNamara, Rappaport told the grand jury the names of those to whom he entrusted all the check book stubs and can- elled checks which showed Mc mara’'s financial dealings from Decem- ber, 1909, to the day of his arrest on April 22, 1911, and also showed what disposnl the dynamiter made of the $1,000 a month allowed him fn his capacity as secretary-treasurer of ‘he International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers. Rappaport at first refused to testify, declaring the evidence sought was in the nature of a privileged communica- tion between attorney and clent. Put after Federal Judge Anderson, had ruled that he would be compelled to produce the books if he had thnem, or 1o tell who else had them, he consent- 4 to answer these questions. “This investigation ig8 not to be de- jayed by any trivial matter,” said the congt. ‘The jury has been sit- ting for weeks and it is not going to be marched up and down hill for noth- tog DYNAMITE IN STORAGE.

Yuan Peking, Jan. 26.—The atmistice be- tween the gov Heans, which is to expire at 8 o’clock next Tuesday, will be probably extend- ed, despite the .imperial edict yester- day creating Yuan Shi Kai a mar- quis, which evidently covers some court design. Yuan undoubtedly fav- ors abdication, and the Chinese are confident that abdication will come intended to abide by the decision of the national assembly concerning the future government of the empire. But Yuan Shi Kai telegraphed Wu | Ting Fang, the minister of justice in ing a compromise as to the method of <hoosing delegates to the national as- semly, and this compromise, if adopt- ed, may lead to an assembly more or less pacekd to vote for a republic, The court and Yuan are evidently mutual- ly suspicious and it orted that guards on both sides have been in- creased. HULL OF THE MAINE READY FOR FLOATING. Water to Depth of Nine Feet Admit- ted to Coffer Dam. Havana oday for the first time sinc 8 drawn off to permit of the uncovering of the wreck of the battleship Maine, water to a depth of nine feet was admitted within the cof- fer dam surrounding the Maine as a preliminary test to ascertain whether the after part of the ship wtih bulkhead is water tight. The test was successful, and it is the intention of Major Harley B. Fergusom, engineer in charge of the work, to gradually admit additional water until the hull of the ill-fated ship floats withn teh dam. He will awalt orders from Washington to break the dam and float out the wreck. Once the hull is outside the coffer dam instructions will be given from Wash- ington as to its final disposition. It is probable that the water within the dam will reach the harbor level in a few days. This will mark the flnal stage of the operation of raising the Maine, which has been in progress nearly 18 months. Steamship Arrivals. At Napies: Jan. 25, Adriatic, from New York.
