FORCED TO ADMIT
MINORITY RIGHTS
Aldrich's Committee Called
Down for Rushing To
bacco Taxes.
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.

to several cities on the Mediterranean

committed on June 9.
Further information has just come to

Chinese took passage was bound for the
