Now he is locked up charged with embezzlement, with other charges pending. Rice's plan, the police say, was to buy diamonds on credit and pawn them. They say he would agree to make small pay- ments and do so for a time out of the loans he received on the jewels from other pawnbrokers. The system resolved itself into kiting diamonds, as checks are some- Umes kited.

DUTIES UPON ALL IMPORTS Rhw Mate: Alone are to Come in Free—Taxes on Wheat, Corn and Ment—Preferences for Colonies. LONDON, Dec. §—The Birmingham Dally Post will tomorrow publish an article frcm Inspired sources outlining the tariff .eform proposals whish are likely to be proposed by the unionist government If the unionists are successful at the elections, prefacing it with the rémark that the country’s finan- clal necessities are much greater than they were In 1906, when Joseph Chamberlain started the movement. The article proceeds “It 18 proposed to establish a general riff, placing dutles on practically sil goods that are not deemed raw material with the object, first, of raising revenues; second, of assisting the home producer against forelgn competition; third, of giving preference to colonies; fourth, of securing better terms from foreign countries; and, tinally, of mitigating unemployment by en- couraging the home producer. “The tariff will be of the simplest porsi- ble form, not protective In the sense that that 1s understood In Germany and the United States. There Is no Intention of having multifarious rates which would throw open the door to parllametary in- trigue. The plan favored is to allow raw materials duty free and to Impose a 5 per cent duty on partly manufactured goods, 10 per cent on articles nearly completed and 15 per cent on completely manufactured goods. There will be no variations in this scale, unless in very exceptlonal cases. There may possibly be, however, a slightly lower duty'in favor of the colonles and a slightly higher tariff against coun‘ries seeking unduly to penalize British goods. Duty on Graln and Meat. “Forelgn wheat will be llable to a duty of 2 shillings per quarter, with prefercnce to the colonles, but not the removal of ihe whole duty. Flour will pay a higher rate In order to encourage home grinding, while bacon and maize will also be excluded from the free list. Important raw materl- als, such as cotton and wool, will enter free. “A tariff framed thus, it is estimated, would produce a revenue from 18,000,000 to 20,000,000 pounds. If the unionists are re- turned, every possible effort will be made to embody the new dutles in the budget of 1910, or at the latest, 1911, but the maximum dutles will be withheld for two vears in order to give time to negotiate commerclal agreements with forelgn countries.’” The Right Hon. George Wyndham, mem- ber of the House of Commons, for Dover, epeaking in London tonight also intimatsd the intention of the unionists to propose A 10 per cent duty on manufactured articles and 2 shillings on wheat. Cotton Men for Free Trade. Charles Wright Madara, head of Cotton Federation of Creat Britian, in an Interview today on the political crisis, re- vealed himself as a strong advoeate of tree trade. “I have been struck,” he sald, “by the feebleness of the arguments by those who would serfously endanger the cotton trade by changing our fiscal policy. In' fifty years Lancashire has doubled in populn tion, doubled its cotten spinning and manu- tacturing machinery and bullt up an ex- port trade three times bigger than lts home trade. This enormous growth has been maintained by the cheapnoss of pro- duction. Tax food and mill requisites and our pre-eminence would be endankered; protected America, where two-thirds of the world's cotton crop grows, only ex- ports 10 per cent of Its manufactured £00ds, against England's 75 per cent. “Hitherto other nations have discounted to some extent the handicap which pro- tection Imposed upon them, by working longer hours, but hext year the mills of Massachussetis and Germany will by | statute, have the working hours reduced to nearly the same level as England. Let the cotton industry by imperilled and every other Industry suffers. The teeming popu- lation of Lancashire are among the biggest consumers of agricultural produce.” the Demand Reform of Elcct_o_r_al System | Three-Class Property System Prussia is the Subject of Attack. in BERLIN, Dec. 8—~A demand upon the government for & reform of the Prussian | three-class property qualification electorsl | system was published today.

President Taft tonight attended the In- formal reception to the delegates to the annual meeting at the home of Miss Mabel Boardman. President Taft's Address. The hall where the meetu, was held this afternoon was but partly filled when Pres- \dent Taft rose to speak. “These meetings,” he sald, “do not seem to grow in numbers, and they do not by any means represent the growth and use- fulness of this organization and the dem- onstration that it has made from time to time, during each year, of the neccssity for its continued life and of the need for a permanent foundation, that shall make it one of the American Institutions “During the last year the soclety has shown what it could do In Its assistance | to Italy, after the carthquake, to eastern | Turkey, after the massacres, and to Mox- ico, after the floods.

That seems to fill the cye of the public and Its connection with the tuberculosis carries a good revenue with it. But when it comes to the contribu- tions of a dollar a year, when it comes to the increased membership, and when it comes to the establishment by these small contributions of a large endowment fund, the matter moves slowly. Endowment is Needed. “I am sure someoody Is going to be born, and I hope he Is born already, who will give us a large endowment. In our im- aginations we might as well make it as large as we need it. I think we ought to have an endowment of about $5,000,00. We have been modest and have asked only for $2,000,000, but If anyone has an extra $3,000,- 000 he need not be restricted by the lim- itation put in and caused by our modesty.” The president spoke in similar vein in presenting the silver medal to Miss Davis and Mr. Parish. officers re-elected, in Taft, were Robert president; Beekman and Henry M.
