'LITTLE BOB' ASIDE
Accepts Amendment From
Bulkeley, Which La Fol
lette Had Offered.
3URKETTS ANGRY PROTEST
Declares Action Justifies Vote oi
I jack of Confidence in Commit
tee Limit on Island To
bacco I Stricter.
WASHINGTON, June 15. Vigorously
denouncing the committee on finance be
cause of Its change of front over night on
the subject of tobacco importations from
the Philippines. Burkett of Nebraska, in
the Senate characterized this action as
"an cfTort to hang; the Senator from Wis
consin up in the air," and finally declared
that this even "afforded Senators a good
opportunity to vote a lack of confidence
In the committee."
This followed Aldrich's statement that
the committee -would accept the amend
ment proposed by Bulkeley to reduce
the number of cigars to be admitted free
of duty from the Philippine Islands from
loO. 000.000 to 70.000.000 and the quality of
tiller tobacco from 1.500.000 to 1.000.000
pounds, together with a provision that
'.he wrapper and filler tobacco should be
mstommed when receiving this conces
sion.
AldrlcU' Wins, as Vsnal.
.Aldrich. replying, said the committee's
su-tU.n involved no mystery or petty poll
:is. but that it proposed in the future to
chance a schedule when convinced that
a m tu ke had been made. He expressed
the option that the actual Importations
from the Philippines would not equal he
amouT.t named in the amendments the
committee had accepted.
Encouraged by the committee's action.
La Follette proposed another amendment
to reduce the free importation of cigars
to 80.000.000 annually, but this was de
feated. SS to "7.
llorah for Philippine Independence.
An interesting feature was a declaration
by Borah that ho proposed to vote for
loosening the bond which tied the Phil
ippines to the United States. He declared
himself in favor of giving the islands an
Independent government and said his con
victions would force him to differ from
his party and perhaps from the Presi
dent, as he did not believe a colonial
policy consistent with the constitution.
Aldrich Reduces Glass Rates.
Aldrich this evening presented the
finance committee's amendment to the
schedule. Aldrich also submitted amend
ments to the window glass schedule, re
ducing the rates even below those nro-
vided in the House bill. He also pre
sented amendments reducing the rate on
osier and willow for basket-making.
cnanging the rates upon electrodes, and
restoring the House rates on barytes. In
response to the request of Scott, action
on the wondow glass schedule whs post
poned until tomorrow, but the other rec
ommendations were adopted without di
vision. At 7 o'clock the Senate adjourned
until 10 o'clock tomorrow.
Bulkeley Starts Touble.
Declaring tobacco grown in the
Philippine Islands unfitted for the
American market because of its in
ferior quality, Bulkeley opposed the
jrnuippine amendment, and insisted
that its enactment into law would do
the Filipinos no good.
Teach them," he said, "that their
way to make a market for their to
bacco, or anything else, is to produce
a superior quality, and there -will be a
natural demand for them."
Bulkeley Starts Trouble.

referred to above relating to Philippine
tobacco.' and Penrose Tnnno on ir i t
er approving this proposed change as
iiiiLiury w me tobacco interests
of their states. Aldrich promptly, on
behalf of the flnanoo rnmmfttoa ex
cepted this amendment. This ' pro-
xjuriteit to make his assault on
tne committee, charging that It was
playing: -a came nf nattv nni;ti.
against La Follette. He said the or
iginal amendment had been brought
into the Senate as approved by the
President, but in face of that fact the
committee had brought in its recom
mendation for a reduction of 5,000,000
cigars below that called for by the
La Follette amendment.
Dick, Gallinger and Depew defended
the committee.
Better Give Them Money.
Estimating the loss of revenue that
would result from the free entry of
cigars from the Philippines to the
United States at 13,500,000 annually,
and the loss from free sugar at $10,000,
000. Newlands declared that it would be
better to make a direct aporooriation
for the benefit of the Filipinos. He de
clared the tariff concessions would
benefit the great Philippine tobacco
trust cmeny
Root appealed for the passage of the
amendment as first proposed by the
committee as a mere act or Justice.
Replying to a question of Newlands.
the New York Senator said he believed
the Philippine people eventually would
be able to assume independence in their
Hovernment such as now exists in
Cub
A vou was then taken on the La
Follette amendment reducing the num
ber of free Philippine cigars from
, 70,000,000 to 60,000,000, and it was re
jected. 38 to 27. The Republicans
voting in favor of the amendment were
Borah, Bristow, Brown, Burkett, Clapp,
Cummins, Dolliver and La Follette.
Compromise on Wood Pulp.
Wood pulp and print paper were con
sidered today by Republican members
of the finance committee. No vote was
taken. The duty on paper will be fixed
at $4 a ton, which is a compromise be
tween the House rate of 2 and the $6
rate of the present law.

SUGAR STOCK DECLINES $8
Fear of Further Government Inquiry
Causes Big Slump.
NEW YORK. June 15. There was an
abrupt decline of JS a share in Amer
ican Sugar Refining stock during ?.he
first hour of trading oi. the Stock F-r-
change today. The drop in the price
was attributed to the litigation of -ha
company recently and to fears of a
rigorous Government inquiry into its
affairs. At one time the stock fell from
127 to 123 on one sale, but later there
was a rally of 4. The break in this
stock affected the entire list and 1he
whole market declined.
The failure of the stock market to rally
from the influence of the break in Amer
ican Sugar prompted the organization of
a bear party in the speculation. This
party operated boldly and effectively dur
ing the day, and forced declines through
out tne list.

State Suffers Tremendous Financial
Drain and Invalids Not Great
ly Aided, Conference
Is Told.
BUFFALO, N. T., June 15. Notable
among the speakers at the National Con
ference of Charities and Corrections,
which is being held in this city, was Dr.
W. B. Friedman, president of the Colo
rado State Board of Charities, who opened
today s session with a paper on "The
Great Wrong of Sending Avanced Con
sumptives away from Home."
Dr. Friedman gave startling figures as
to the financial burden that charitable
societies in his state carried annually and
showed how Colorado had become a
veritable dumping-ground for the sick
from all parts of the Nation to the tre
mendous drain of the state funds, and to
but slight gain to the sick.
"Colorado or any other health resort
as a last chance Is a lost chance for
advanced consumptives. Every humani
tarian impulse urges such patients to re
main at home. It is an injustice and an
irreparable injury to the sufferers to send
them away. The sudden change from sea
level to a highland, rarifled atmosphere,
tho wearing hardships of travel aeera-
vate complications and hasten death. Be
sides, "incurables' wield a dangerous In
fluence over curables." To place these
ill-starred victims of the valley of the
shadow of death in hourly contact with
those whose hearts beat high with hooe
is a pitiable attempt at performing serv
ice. The constant effect of depressing
mental 6uggestion is fatal to recovery. It
often results in turning the 'curable' into
an 'incurable.' "
As part of a symposium on "what con
stitutes right publicity in philanthropic
work," John A. Kingsbury, assistant sec
retary of the New York State Charities
Aid Association, suggested that the rela
tion of public health work to right pub
licity differs in only one respect from
proper and effective commercial advertis
ing. "It must tell the truth must be moral,"
said the speaker. "The advertisement that
sells is good; the advertisement that does
not sell is bad. Unlike commercial ad
vertising, our publicity campaign has a
humanitarian purpose, and to accomplish
it we should learn the thousand prin
ciples involved in commercial advertising.
