BRIEF REPORT OF THE DAILY
WORK OF NATION'S LAWMAKERS
Washington, May 1H. - - Claiming Washington, May 17.- Charges that
that the cam-nee of the prop. .mil com-. Democratic member of the house
merciul agreement between thi coun- committee on rule were seeking to
j ninem m reciiirocuy anu
that auch wa the understanding of
those who framed it, Senator Root
Uxluy .appeared before the senate
finance committee and suggested an
amendment to the house bill which
would prevent wood pulp and paper
from coming into tho country free un
til it was free from all province of
Canada.
Senator Koot argued that such an
umciidmont would not prevent the
agreement a a whole from becoming
effective. On the other hund, John
rsorris, of New York, representing
the American Newspaper 1'ubliHhers'
association, commenting on the pro
poacd amendment, said that it adop
tion would be fatal to the agreement.
Senator limits' umendment wa de
signed to make pulp and paper free on
both sides at the same time, instead
of allowing the imairtation at once of
free pulp and paper from these pro
vince in Canada in w hich there are
no restriction regarding the ' exporta
tion of those article.
The bill now, he assert, contain
no provision whatever for the free
admission of pa r and wood pulp into
Canada.
His amendment would add to the
wood pulp and paper provision the
stipualtion that Canada may have the
right to import those article free
"only when the President of the
United State shall have satisfactory
evidence and shall make proclamation
that such admission of wood pulp,
paM-r and boards, being the product of
the United States, are admitted into
Canada free of duty."
Washington, May 1H. A new or
ator apN'ared in the rank of the Re
publican minority in congre Unlay.
The oiiening speech on the Arizona-
New Mexico statehixsl resolution, a
distinction accorded to Frank 11. Wil
lis, a freshman from Ohio, turned out
Ui be a two hours' running fire of re
partee and tiht with the Democratic
leader.
In suprting the New Mexican
constitution a President Taft ha ap
proved it, Willi drew the fire of
Chairman Fbsid and a half dozen
prominent Democrat. He was armed
with a mas of constitution and or
ganic act of the 'various state and.
whenever a new proposition wa advo
cated, he would suy: "I've got it
right here," while the Republican side
cheered and laughed.
Hamilton of Michigan, ex-chairman
of the territories committees,
urged the immediate approval of the
New Mexican constitution. The Re-
pubican aicakers condemned the recall
of Judges in the Arizona constitution !
and unnroved the olan to force Arizona :
to vote again on that feature, but they
declared no change should be made
in the New Mexican constitution.
Washington, May 17.
President
Taft Unlay sent the to senate- the Tar
iff ttoard's full report of It investigaJ
tion of the pulp and news paer indus
try in the United State and Canada.
Summarized briefly, the report says a
ton of new print paper is made in
Canada for $5..'5 less than it i made
in the United State. The average
Canadian cost i given a $27.5:1 and
the average cost in the I nited State
at $.12. KM. The duty under the pres-
nt tariff i $.1.75.
The document presents extensive
tables, comparison and other tabula
tions. It i said to be the most com
plete resirt of the kind ever attempt
I. The entire
force of the Tariff ;
Ixiard ha been engaged tisin it for
months.
Several factor entering into the in
creased cost of manufacture in the
United States are taken up exhaus
tively in the report. The principal
increase are said to be due to the fact
that a ton of pulp wood cost nearly wool on the free list would cut off at
twice a much in the United State once $21,000,000, while the etire wool
a it iloes in Canada and that many schedule brings in more than $40,000,

Washington, May 17.- As indicat
ing the possible effect on legislation
of the Supreme court' Standard Oil
decision, three bills were introduced
in the senate today, one by Jones, of
Washington, Republican, and the
other two by Culberson, of Texas, and
Reed, of Missouri, Democrat.
All look to the amendment of the
Sherman anit-trust law to include all
combination in restraint of trade, re-
ear, es or tneir reasonableness or un-
reasonableness, and all are suggested
.by Justice Harlan s dienting view in
the Standard Oil case.
Trust Invett gation Begin.
Washington, May, 19. Preliminary
step in the congressional inquiries in
to the United State Steel corration
and the American Sugar Refining com
pany were taken today. Ilardwick of
Georgia, chairman of the "Sugar
Trust" committee, issued a call for a
meeting tomorrow while the steel in
vestigation committee has deferred
it formal meeting until Saturday
when a successor to Representative
, . , .
Olmstead will be chosen.
Brandeis to Aid in Probe.
Washington, May 19. I,oiiis R.
Brandeis, the Boston attorney who
conducted the prosecution in the Bal-
linger - Pinchot controversy and who
volunteered to save $1,000,000 a day
for the railroads of the country, will

curred in the Democratic ranks of the
house since the opening of thin con
Kress. Chairman Henry wa denounced hy
Fitzgerald, chairman of the appropri
ations committee, for having made
"unauthorized assumption of author
ity" for the rule committee. Other
Democrat say the decision of the
rule committee, if adopted hy the
house, will be a complete abrogation
of the principle for which the Demo
crat have stood, namely the selection
of committee by action of the Demo
cratic caucuses
Two lists, one being the proposed
steel trust committee, the other the
sugar trust committee, were sub -
mitted by Henry in the form of priv -
ileged resolutions which he asked the
house to adopt.
Immediately questioned by Demo-
rr.u ukn ku,l lu.un .n.lu,l t
the authority by which the rules com
mittee offered these names, Henry
said uhout 150 Democrat had ap
proved the Democratic list, and Re
publican member were named by
Minority Leader Mann.
The steel trust investigating com
mittee wa approved before the Demo
crats woke up to the full effect of the
situation. The resultant fight fell up
on the sugar trust committee; and a
continuation of the struggle finally
wa averted by the action of Under
wood, the Democratic leader, in ad
journing the house while the resolu
tion wa still pending.
Washington, May 16. The senate
finance committee engaged in a some
what heated tilt today over the sub
ject of Canadian reciprocity amend
ments. Senator Stone, of Missouri, demand
ed to know when Allen and Graham,
said to be New York attorneys and
representing the National Grange,
were to appear in response to hi re
quest that they be summoned to tell
of their employment by interest op
posed to reciprocity.
Senator Gallinger demanded that
"some of those who have made vigor
ous efforts to accelerate public opinion
in favor of reciprocity" should be
asked to apear before the committee.
Senator Williams retorted that under
these circumstances. President Taft
ought to be summoned to testify to
what he had done to "accelerate pub
lic opinion" on the question.
Senator Gallinger said he was op-
Iel to summoning attorneys for var-
lou organization, but that if it were
to be done, both sides should be heard.
He asked therefore that John Norris
and Herman Kidder, representative
of the American. Newspaper Publish-
I'1"' association, be required to appear
hetore the committee ana tell wnat
their organizations had done to help
the reciprocity sentiment.
Declaring that Mexico was shipping
its cattle into Texas, paying the duty,
and underselling American competi
tors, and that Canada could fatten
cattle quicker there Bnd dress them
better, Samuel H. Shan, the cattle
raisers' attorney, continued today his
testimony in opposition to the removal
of duty on meat.
Washington, May 16. Democratic
member of the way and mean com
mittee of the house today undertook
the task of drafting a bill revising the
wool schedule. The committee debat-1
ed without attempting to reach a de-1
cision whether the bill shall place raw
wool on the free list, or reduce the
tariff 50 per cent or more.
The paramount issue in revising
the schedule is revenue. To put raw

enue.

The color scheme Is lolster pink,

and the trimmings are silver embroid

made of the lace over pink or lobster

of the brim Is faced with wonderfully

a large bunch of splendid aigrettes In
white tipped with the odd pink hue.
The scarf and pararol carry out the
color In cblffon, lace and semi precious
jew els.
Greatly Varied Ouestion.
The question of bats Is a varied one.
This season there are hats for every
body, and price to suit the purchas
er. There Is no end to oddities In the
new models, and almost everything Is
shown from Jockey, witch and clown
shapes to the traditional helmet, cav
alier, empire and Victorian styles. All
these and many other are fashioned
of coarse straws, tagal and hemp
braids. The coarse straws are eo ex
ceedingly coarse that little trimming
Is required to make the finished hat
becoming. Many such models are
trimmed with a severe little bow or
chou made of satin or velvet and
placed In some unusual position. These
and other styles are Ideal for wear
with tailor-made costumes, while the
Victorian styles seem to be the only
thing for tbe quaint little summer
frocks of print and border effect.
Among the novelties 1 shown a
piquant model labeled "Watteau."
The shape turns up defiantly at the
back, and Is heralded as one of the
most popular shapes at the French
Riviera, where smart summer fashions
annually receive their christening. A
number of the becoming dresi hats
have brims of shirred tulle with
spring flowers trimming them the en
tire surface. The facing very often Is
of a different color and is of chiffon or
moussellne; sometime over a con
trasting color. A stunning hat shaped
on the order of the mushroom model
wa made In direct contrast to con
entlonaltles. Instead of the flowers
being on the top. they were employed
a the facing to the underbrlm. while
the top of the chapeau waa left com
paratively plain, with nothing but a
bit of shirred chiffon over the crown
and brim. The flower under the
brim were simple field daisies, and the
wa' novel an1 wonderfully be-
coming.
"Poke" trrect ia iooa.
The close fitting hat a la mode, as
shown In It best form, has acquired
la decided poke that I equal to quite
ravishing effect u worn over a pretty
The smartest of these model
"e perfectly flat over the front of the
t"d ntl tne back na arety of
way of extending the hair and ears.
A fetching poke-toque of this order
seen the other day was made of
striped black and white satin braid
with a broad front expanse of plain
black hemp. The only trimming con
sisted of a huge bow of black and
while striped velvet ribbon edged with
bright green. At the stiles were two
rather large cobochons of Jet, and
across the top of the crown Is another
Jet ornament running from front to
back.
Novelties of all kinds are crop
ping out this season. Strings that actu
ally tie on the hat are found among
the quaintest arrivals of returned
fashions. There are endless varieties
of Napoleon shapes and all sorts of
picturesque broad brims. An extreme
ly becoming Napoleon Is In black and
white coarse straw with the crown
and brim In one, turned sharply from
the front and faced with royal blue
satin, while the rest of the trimming
consisted of blue silk cords with silver
acorn finishing the ends. And back
of the broad turnover brim were two
enormous sized quills, made of single
ostrich feathers curled close to the
stem. These were in the same shade
0
of blue and were placed In a striking
upright position.
Unsual 8hpes Shown.
Many of tbe huge straw hat look
a though they had been caught In
snowstorms and had come out pretty
well battered, for they are bent In the
most unusual shapes and frequently
the straw actually seems broken,
lirlnis are wide and moat Irregular,
while crowns are dented to give tbe
desired effect. To most persons such
a shape Is more becoming than the
hard conventional lines of tbe perfect
ly straight brim, and If properly
trimmed the result Is exceedingly
smart. A quaint little model of sea
grass Is In pagoda shape and trimmed
with a Japanese band In which several
colors are woven. The simulated
crown la gracefully draped with the
scarf and the ends are allowed to fall
over the left side.
Many styles suggestive of the
French revolutionary period are In evi
dence, both In shapes and colon, this
season. One of tbe most picturesque
models we have seen had a very wide
flare at the left side and high thimble-shaped
crown. It was made of
coarse straw In tbe new Illuminated
gray called "mother of pearl." The
trimming consisted of a band of rich
embroidery drawn across the front of
the crown and under the brim on both
sides. At the back were three very
long plumes In dull pinks and greens.
These were of the new class that so
far 1 nameless, but they are really
nothing more nor less than handsome
ostrich feathers w ired very stiffly with
the under fibers curled toward the
stem In the fashion of a lyre plume
and a certain little quirk In the wire
which flattens the feather In the cen
ter and gives It a jaunty turn at the
end.
All Sorts of Trimming.
The trimmings are exquisite. Wild
flowers and old fashioned garden flow
ers vie with each other on the same
hat Natural colorings of artificial
flowers are given little attention. Al
most any shade that blends with the
tone of the bat or gown Is considered
smart A new Idea that Is taking well
I the use of beads applied directly
to the straw, and If the fad continues
there Is no telling to what spectacular
lengths It may run. Road trimmings
of all kinds are also seen on some of
the best hats. The mingling of big
and little blossoms Is another fad ol
the moment Rambler and moss roses
together with the tiniest of button
roses formed the trimming of one of
the handsomest picture hats shown this
season. Another model of tbe same
dimensions bad for Its trimming a
wonderful combination of polnsettlas
and camellaa with weeping willow
foliage In Its natural shade of soft
green. I. ace Is also much used In
millinery, though more In the makeup
than In Its garnishments.
