BILL FINISHED
UNO IS SIGNED
WASHINGTON. Aug. 5. Presi
dent Taft luiied a statement tonight
subsequently signing the new tariff
hill, declaring that whllo the mens
ure la not by any meana perfect. It
li his sincere and honest effort to
carry out the platform pledged and
embodies the real revision downward.
The tariff has been' revised and
the extraordinary session of con
gress Is ended. Both houses ad
journed at ( o'clock, although as a
matter of fact the houso adjourned
half an hour before that. The con
ference report was agreed to by the
senate 47 to SI, and soon afterward
the concurrent resolution changing
the leather schedule so as to em
brace all kinds of leather products
was adopted by both houses.
The President Arrived.
President Taft arrived at the Cap
itol at 4:45 and entered the presi
dent's room, being his first appear
ance there since being president. lie
was warmly welcomed by a string of
congressmen which passed through
the room from his arrival to his c"
parture.
Six minutes past 6 the Payne tariff
hill waa laid before the president.
He attached his signature with a pen
used by both Vice-President Sher
man and Speaker Cannon In .s
Ing the bill. With the president at
the time were Secretaries Knox, Mc
Veagh, Nagle, Wilson, Attorney-General
Wlckersham, Post master-General
Hitchcock. Senator Aldrlch, Repre
sentative Payne and many other sen
ators and congressmen.
In Good Humor.
The president was In the utmost
good humor and had a ready Joke
for the different senators present.
Senator Warren he tried to mollify
for his disappointment, and address
ing Senator Heyburn, who this af
ternoon declared that no rate In the
hill Is too high to suit him. The
president said: "How are you, old
high tariff?"
The president told 'the committee
from the house and the senate, who
railed to Inform him that the extraor
dinary session was ready to adjourn,
that he hadn't signed the bill yet,
and asked if they thought he had
better adjourn it before signing the
bill. There having been a great deal
of talk about the possibility of a
veto, everybody in the room caught
the significance of the president's
Jocularity.
After signing the general tariff
bill the president picked up a mother
-of pearl pent sent him from the Phil
ippine Islands for the purpose, and
signed the Philippines tariff bill.
The president left the capltol about
o'clock through a driving storm.
Was Busy Day.
The signing of the bills had been
. .liut Kv hnav rfnw In hnth
houses. The meeting at 10 o'clock
of the senate devoted four hours of
debate on the measure. At 2 o'clock
a vote waa taken on the conference
report and following this Aldrlrh's
concurrent resolution regarding
hides was adopted. Six o'clock was
agreed upon by the two houses as
the hour for the final adjournment,
the hour for the final adjournment.
The senators loitered about nntll
that hour.
A resolution of thanks to the vice
president was passed and that officer
io turn thanked the senate for tta
courteous treatment and wished
them a pleasant Jonrney home.
The house devoted the last day of
the session to perfecting the tariff
bill and transacting a mass of rout
ine business.
Speaker Cannon announced his
committee appointments and they
were received with varying degrees
of satisfaction.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6 In sub
stance. President Taft, In his state
ment says that he signed the Payne
bill because he thinks it Is a sincere
effort of the Republican party tj
make a downward revision accord
ing to the platform. Ha did not
consider It perfect, nor a complete
compliance with the party promise,
but a complete compliance, involv
ing, as It does, many schedules and
thousands of articles, it conld not
1e expected.
Excepting liquors, silks and some
high classes of cotton goods, all of
which he considers luxuries, the
president says there has been no in
crease In rates.
"There have been," he says, "a
great number of real decreases, and
they constitute a sufficient amount
to justify the statement that there
has been a substantial downward re
vision. This is not a free trade bill
It was not Intended to be. The Re
publican party did not promise to
make a free trade bill."
President Taft then explains that
-what was promised was that the
rates would be reduced In cases
where the cost of production abroad
exceeded the difference between the
-cost of production and here, making
allowance for the greater normal
profit on the Investments here. He
says that while this excess has not
lu,. Mil nM In nnmhor nf mini.
1t has In a great majority of them,
and are now low enough to permit
Importing foreign articles to prevent
excessive prices.
Passing to the Philippines tariff
hill, he says he was struggling for
ilt ten rears, and nredlcta that It will
greatly Increase the trade between
the two countries and do much to
build up the Philippine Islands.
The president saya that the admin
istrative clauses ef the bill and the
customs court are admirably con
structed to secure the uniform and
speedy construction of the law. Re
garding; the sorporatlon tax, the pres
ident declares it Is a Just and equit
able measure, and he expecta It will
not alone be useful In preventing a
deficit, but will secure some valu
able statistics snd Increase the pub
licity concerning corporations.

GROUCHY SPINSTER DEAD.
She Lravee Behind Her a Million 1
lars to Be Quarrelled Over.
FORT PLAIN, N. Y., Aug. 4
Elisabeth Dicfendorf, a wealthy and
eccentric spinster of good family. Is
dead at her home here at the age
of 77 years.
Fifty years ago she closed her
house to her many friends and up to
the time of her death was seldom
seen even by her neighbors.
Thirty years ago a local newspaper
criticised tho seating accommodations
of an assembly hall In what was then
the biggest and best building In Fort
Plain. Miss Dlefendorf owned It.
The hall was closed the next day, the
tenants' leases were not renewed and
the building has stood ever since,
heavily taxed, but dusty and vacant.
Miss Dlefendorf leaves an estate
valued at about 11,000,000, chiefly
In western real estate. She left no
will, hut Is survived by a sister and
several cousins. ,
WAS THE QUEEH
OF
oak ika.wi;u, Aug. s. wiiu
-. . . -
the arreat by the Oakland police of a
woman who gave her name as Mrs.
Maud Myrtle Johnson, railroad offl-'
clals In thl sand a doien other cities ,
believe that a check will now be put i
on the career of one of the most ver-
utile accident swindlers the country
has eevr known.
The woman, who at the present
time is lying in the Merrltt hospital,
Oakland, suffering from the results
of her latest "accident," for the last
two years has lived on money ob
tained from every important steam
and street railway in the country as
damages for injuries. According to
the police, she has operated under no
leas than nine aliases and has re
ceived thousands of dollars for fake
Injuries.
Discovery of Woman.
The discovery of the woman and
her Identity was made by Claims
A gent Ferrin of the Oakland Traction
company, who went to Merrltt hos
pital to make a settlement with the
woman for an Injury she declared she
had received on one of the company's
cars. Ferrin, who, with every claims
agent in the country, has been look
ing for a woman they have dubbed
"Queen of Accident Fakirs." declared
that he at once recognised her as Mrs.
Johnson.
In company with two men who
tiaveled with her, Frank and Luther
Johnson, she was turned over to the
Oakland police to be held for Investi
gation. It Is expected that today the
woman will be turned over to the po
lice of Seattle, where recently she ob
tained 1600 from the Seattle Electric
railroad as damages for an alleged
Injury.
Method Was Novel.
According to Claims Agent Ferrin,
Mrs. Johnson began work in Septem
ber. 1007. Her method is novel. On
nearly all occasions she alleges to
have received a Jolt or jar on a train
streetcar, causing her to fall
against a seat or door, fracturing a
rib or puncturing a lung.
She has the power of throwing her
limbs out of Joint at will and this has
deceived many railroad physicians. A
red powder which the woman slips
Into her mouth at the critical mo
ment gives the Impression her lungs
have been injured.
She faints away, creates a sensa
tion, and arouses the sympathy of
passengers. When the conductor re
moves her from the train or car to a
home she sends for the Master Ma
son, a minister and attorney and
makes her will. The railroad physi
cians advise a settlement and the
claims agent visits the "patient" and
makes whatever terms with her he
can. Immediately after her claim Is
settled Mrs. Johnson flits suddenly oS
to new fields of labor.
Would Win Sympathy.
Another scheme ttast she less fre
quently works is to throw herself
from streetcars or fall In some spec
tacular way that wins her sympa
thetic attention and does not Inflict
any really aerloua injury-
Mrs. Johnson Is between 30 and 36
years old, a very placid and persua
sive talker, easily moved to tears,
and polished In manner and dress.
With her husband, Frank Johnson,
and his brother, the woman Is al
leged to have een swindling railroad
companies up and down the Pacific
coast. When the police searched her
effects yesterday they, found letters
and newspaper clippings giving some
insight Into her remarkable record
and the number oft aliases under
which she worked.
Railway Companies Daped.
Information regarding Mrs. John
son has been telegraphed to traction
companies all over the United States.
This Information shows that railway
corporations from the Atlantic to the
Pacific Coast have been duped. Ac
cording to the evidence In the pos
session of the United Railroads, Mrs.
Johnson entered her present career
In company with Frank Johnson
The couple operated first In the Mid.
die West, winning awards for lmag
Inary damages with surprising ease.
Her Seattle Record.
SEATTLE, Aug. 6. Mary M.
Johnson baa a record which stamps
her one of the cleverest woman
swindlers In the country.
She makes a specialty of railroad
and street railway corporations. Her
victims, it is claimed. Include the
streetcar concerns of Kansaa City,
Denver, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Seat
tie and Oakland, extending over a
period tf years, and with only one
failure to her credit, that of Portland,
Or. In this city she secured 1600
from the Seattle Electric company,
which owns the Seattle Street Rail
way system, for alleged personal in
juries. George Carson, claim agent of the
Seattle Electric company, swore to a
warrant Issued for her arrest. In
this warrant the woman's name Is set
out aa Mary M. Johnson, alias Maud
Myrtle Johnson, alias Edith Strong,
alias Grace Taylor, alias Mamie
Johnson, alias N. L. Harelson, alias
Mary Thomas, alias Frances B.
