Will Submit BUI to Democrats. When tha majority members of the committee, complete their bill they will submit It to the Democratic mcmhers. The latter will offer the House a minor ity report unless the bill reported by the Republicans provides for the reduc tions that the Democrats favor. The main differences of opinion probably will be on the lumber, metal and pulp and paper schedules. Champ Clark, the minority leader of the House, lias brought out much Important testimony In his examination of witnesses on the lumber and steel schedules, and he fa vors a material reduction in the duties. Two hearings were held today, one witness appearing at each. At the af ternoon hearing Colonel J. V. Allison, a cotton Seed H manufacturer of Texas." asked for a reduction In the duty on pressed camels' lialr cloth. The present duty, he said, is prohibitive and permits a monopoly of the product. This cloth Is used in crushing cotton seed in the manufacture of the oil. Wants Auto Duty Reduced. John J. Carton, of Flint. Mich., rep resenting an automobile manufacturer, asked for a reduction in the duty on automobile from 45 fier cent to 20 per cent. It was brought out during the hearing that the firm. represented by Mr. Carton had a factory in Canada and would therefor derive a benefit from the lower rate of duty.

CLED DRINKS I'ERFKCT LADY BITKS MATROX AXD STICKS OFFICEK. Reincarnation of Egypt's Queen Has lively Spree Captured, She Vows Terrible Revenge. "My name is Cleopatra, and I've been drinking buttermilk cocktails,"' said a handsome dark-haired woman, who clung unsteadily to a telephone pole at First and Yamhill streets as she replied to Officer Swinness' queries last night. On the Angers of the hand that clutched the pole five big diamonds gleamed and glittered in the rays of the arc light overhead. "And I'm going where I'm going, which Ls none of your business." she continued, laughing In a leering way that confirmed the susnicions of the officer that she was drunk. He had a prisoner In custody, but his attention had been attracted to the well-dressed woman who seemed to be busy supporting the tele phone pole. With his prisoner he approached her and demanded her name and what she was doing. When she replied he or dered her to accomiany him to the sta tion. "Go to the station with you?" she repeated contemptuously. vNixy. noth ing riolnc I select niv company, and I'm not going home till I get good and ready." Whereupon the officer seized her by the arm and attempted to take her along. She suddenly siiiituhed a hatpin from her head and viciously struck at him. She missed and struck apln. while he seized her by the upraised hand. She screamed lustily, striking and biting at the officer, who was compelled lo call upon his other prisoner for assistance. Mike Dire, who had been arrested for assault, complied and seized the other arm of the woman. Bystanders called the patrol wagon, and the younjr woman was finally landed in the woman's ward of the City Jail. She threw herself upon the floor and screamed until Matron Simmons, with the nld of a pa trohnan. ' removed her to a lounpe and attempted to search her. "Iet me remove those diamomis and all your valuables so that you will have them in the morning," said the matron. "Not on your life. I've been mixed up with thieves before." answered the woman, as she buried her teeth in the matrons arm. It was with difficulty that she was forced to release her hold. The wounds, however, are not considered serious. She finally give the name of Mrs. L. C. Mitchell, and aid her husband was a prominent citizen of Portland. As soon as he learned where she was. she said, he would go to the police station, and what he would do to the officer who arrested her would fill several vol umes.

CONFIDENT OF LOCAL TEAM Fcnrl Casey and His Big Manager Think Indians Are Touted Too Highly hy Their Skipper, and Proceed to Show Why. "So Bob Brown don't like my team?' commented Walter - McCredie yesterday afternoon, when shown the statement of the Spokane manager in The Ore gonian yesterday. "Well, I don't: want him 'to think much of it, and hope he continues In the same frame of mind until the season opens. Nothing would please me better than to have him dope out Portland as having a weak team but I don't believe this is possible, for Brown Is somewhat of a fox when it comes to this baseball business. How ever. I'll go him one better, 'and make a statement now that Pearl Casey's team will beat Spokane In the majority of the games they play together during the coming season. As soon as Brown an nounces his lineup I'll figure the per centage of the two clubs. I guess that will detain him for a moment." McCredie made the statement before Manager Casey, and the two of them smiled knowingly when Brown's state ment was discussed by the fans pres ent. The two managers are fell satis fied with the Portland lineup as an nounced yesterday morning, and both are agreed that the only puzzling fea ture of the team is to be the task of selecting pitchers. Harkncss and Hart- man are two experienced men slated for the Northwestern club, and either of them is a much superior man to any pitcher on Brown's staff. At least, that is the claim Casey makes. Harkness Impresses the Portland chiefs as the real goods, and McCredie is worrying over, the possibility of losing him by draft' next season. In Hartman's case, Cliolly Is expected to return to his 1907 form, and if he does something will drop In the vicinity of R. P. Brown and others when he scales the mound. ' As -to the Spokane twirlers. Irving Jen sen got off fairly well, but suffered a slump in midseason, and did not equal his 1907 record when he was drafted by Portland. Dunn and Spoonmoore actu ally belong' to Portland at the present writing, but McCredie announces that he will turn them back to Spokane at the request of Brown. Chick Wright, Jack Myers and Finney are fair pitchers, but neither is what could be termed a star. The two Thomas boys. Joe and H. T., are about as good box artists as are to be found in the Northwestern League, but each must have a good catcher. John Bassey says "that Beaumont is a better catcher in a number of different ways ihnrt is Ostdieck. the new man Ftrown secured recently. and whom Portland wanted a" year ago; and the Portland fans know Dick Boetteger, who caught for Oakland and Seattle in the Coast League. Aside from the catching and pitching departments, the Spokane lineup is en tirely problematical, for Brown has a number of deals pending whereby be will fill in several weak spots. He hopes to complete the.se deals very shortly, for he started negotiations jvhlle in attend ance at the Chicago meeting several weeks ago. "Dutch" Altman. who per formed unsuccessfully in the Coast League, will be ono of the Spokane in ticlders, probably third baseman. al though there is some talk of switching him to first, for BIJly Hulen will not bo likely to remain with Spokane after having been superseded in the manage ment by Brown. i Bob Brown assures the Spokane fans that he will have one of the best teams in the - league, and while the fans of Portland hope that he does, fhey are conndfiit that Casey will give the red- topped "Indian" chieftain a merry chase for the flag. In the meantime the McCredles are waiting patiently for next Monday's meeting In San Francisco, when Presi dent Taylor, of the Boston Americans, ft expected to formally deliver to Mc Credie some four or five ball tossers In exchange for Danzig and Madden, both of whom have been taken back by the "Beaneaters." Among these players will be a catcher, who will fill out the back stopurng hole in the Coast team, and a second baseman. McCredie already has a youngster named Magee, as well as Jimmy Shinn, Stanton and Dugan. who will compete for infield positions. The fans can scribble down the names of McCredle's entire squad and pick out teams for themselves during the period between Christmas and the February jaunt to the training quarters.
