LARGE ADVANCE PROPOSED Republican Senators Want to ' Squeeze More Kevcnue From 1"er of AVeed Bill Changed to Help Shipping Interests. ' WASHINGTON, July 6. The Repub llcan majority of the Senate finance committee today stirred up a hornets' nest by reporting the new schedule of tobaoco taxes aa having- been recom mended when It had not even been submitted to the minority members, much less laid before a meeting- of the whole committee. Aldrlch was forced to back water and reoosnize the rights of tile minority. The new schedule was reported by Smoot as an amendment to the tariff and had no sooner been read than ranlel. senior minority member of the finance committee, rose and Inquired of the Senator from Utah whether he had said these amendments had been reported by the committee on llnanco. Receiving an atfirmatlve reply, he promptly denied the correctness of the statement. Daniels Rebukes Aldrlch. "It Is another bogus report from the committee," declared Ianlel. The Vir ginia Senator proceeded to say that the committee on finance had not acted on these amendments. They had been considered, he said, only by the Re publican members of that committee. Aldrlch said that he would call a meeting of the finance committee for tomorrow morning, giving the minority members a chance to express their opin ion. Higher Taxes on Cigars. In the schedule the existing rate of J 3 a thousand on cigars weighing more than three pounds per 1000 was re tained, but a provision was added ln-i-raoKlng the tax on high-grade cigars. This provision fixes a tax of 6 a thou sand when the wholesale price Is be tween 175 and $110. Whore the price is more than 2110, the tax Is fixed at $9 a thousand. On cigars welshing 30 pounds or less a thousand the House rate of II is reduced to 75 cents a thou sand, an increase of 61 cents over the existing rate. On cigarettes weighing more than three pounds per thousand the House rate of J3.60 Is retained, but on those weighing not more than three pounds the House rate Is reduced from 1.50 to $1.25 a thousand, which still 'eaves an Increase over the existing tax. The provision classifying rolls of to bacco wrapped in tobacco aa. cigars and those -wrapped in paper or other sub stances than tobacco as cigarettes is retained. Increase on Tobacco. The tax on snuff is fixed at 8 cents a pound. The tax on chewing and smok ing tobacco Is also made S cents a pound, and this rate is made to cover fine-cut, cavendish, plug or twist, cut or granulated tobacco of every descrip tion. The existing rate on snuff and smoking and chewing tobacco Is 6 cents. The new rate on tobacco Is made ap plicable to "tobaccos twisted by hand or reduced into a condition to be con sumed, or in any manner other than the ordinary mode of drying and curing, preparing for sale of consumption, even if prepared without the aid of any ma chine or Instrument, and without being pressed or sweetened." Included in the provision are also all fine-cut. shorts or refused scraps, clippings, cuttings and sweepings. No More Coupons Allowed. The use of coupons or any form of premium slips In packages of tobacco is prohibited by a new section. This sec tion Is considered to be broad enough to prohibit all forms of trade stimulants through the promise of gifts. The laws governing the size of pack ages of smoking tobacco are permitted to remain unchanged by the Senate en actment. It is provided that the new taxes shall not take effect until July 1 1910. ' -. When the tobacco schedule had been sent back to the finance committee, the bill was reported from committee of the whole to the Semite and It again came tip for amendment. Exempt From Corporation Tax. lAn amendment proposed by Burkett, exempting beneficial societies from the operation of the Incorporation tax, pre cipitated a debate on the exact form that such a provision should take. After con siderable debate an amendment was adopted exempting from the tax labor organizations, fraternal beneficiary so cieties and organizations exclusively for religious, charitable and educational pur poses. Protect American Ships. Amendments offered by Lodge were greed to rrovidlng for the levying of a discriminating diity of 10 per cent ad valorem on goods Imported in vessels not of the United States; specifying Canada and the West Indies as contiguous coun tries to be affected by the discriminating duty of 10 per cent ad valorem on im ports not manufactured In those coun tries and Introduced Into the United States, and extending ' from two to six months in any one year the period during which domestic-built foreign vessels may engage In the coastwise trade. The United States Is relieved from all reciprocal relations toward foreign na tions In the matter of tonnago dues by an amendment ofTered by Frye and agreed to. This amendment has the effect of re galing the present law authorizing the President to suspend our tonnage taxes against vessels belonging to a country which does not Impose a duty on Amer ican vessels equivalent to our tonnage tax law. Frye stated that W.000,000 In revenue Is now derived from the tonnage tax. about JS50.000 of whtoh would be lost If other countries should, generally, take advantage of our exemption. Klkins Weeps Over Merchant Marine Declaring that, while great on land the United States was impotent at sea Klklns declared that at the next session" of Congress he would exert himself to the utmost to Improve this situation. He quoted his own amendment recom mending a 6 per cent reduction in the tariff on all merchandise imported In vessels of American register. He said he would introduce an independent bill along the same line, which he would press to passage if possible. Elklns asserted that the people of the United States were paying $500 a day to for eign shipping for hauling their own goods. He called attention to the fact that, whereas 50 years ago we were transport! -a g 92 per cent of our own merchandise American vessels are now I carrying only 7 per cent. All sections of the hill that Sonilnrn ! do not desire to reserve for further amendment will now be agreed to en bloc. The Senate then will consider the tobacco amendment, the only amendment not adopted In committee of the whole. PROBABLE TARIFF COXFEREES Aldrlch and Cannon - Already Begin Making Selections.
