MURDEROUS WORK
Am About to Adopt Report With
Democrats Present When letter
Eitorta Concessions House
Will Vote Saturday.
WASHINGTON. July . The Payne
Alarich tariff bill Is completed. An agree
ment on all disputed points was reached
this afternoon and at 4:Si P. M., the
report was signed by the Republican con
ferees. It will go to the House tomor
row and be voted on by that body Sat
urday. The Senate on Monday will begin
consideration of the measure. The Senate
session may consume all of next week
Halted by the mandate of Pre.olden
Taft. the tariff conferees were compelle
to turn back and revise their rates on
lumber and gloves. Hides will be free,
and the rates on shoes and other leather
product were reduced.
Too Sure of Taft Consent.
When the conferees fixed the rates on
lumber and gloves yesterday by shading
slightly the higher rates on cacn, tney
were so certain that the President would
consent to the arrangement that notices
were sent to the Democratic conferees
to be present at 10 o'clock today to ap-
Drove or disapprove of the report.
The President had other Ideas of what
the rates should be. however, and be ex
Dre!Bed them forcibly In a letter. He
said the lumber tariff should not be more
than $1 2S pr K") feet for rough, with
lh. differentials fixed by the Senate on
finished lumber. He declared also that
the Senate rates on gloves, which are
the same as tile IHngley rates and much
less than the House rates, must be
adopted n order to obtain hia approval
of the bill.
Free Hides, Reduce Leather Goods.
The President also specified that hides
must go on the free list and that the
House rates on boots and shoes and
other manufactures of leather must b
reduced. The duties on hosiery he
thought should be reduced below the
House rate, which was advanced over
the Dlngley schedule.
It was not until after the Democratic
members had assembled that the com
munlcatlon was received. When Senator
Aldrleh read the letter he called his Re
publican associates to an adjoining room.
The letter was discussed and it was de
cided that the minority should be in
formed that the conference report had
not been advanced to a stage where it
could be submitted to them for their
Judgment.

Northwestern Senators Send In Ulti

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, July 29. Senators Bourne, Jones.
Plies. Borah and Heyburn had a confer
ence this afternoon, at the conclusion of
which they sent word to the conference
committee that the duty on lumber must
not be reduced below the Senate rate of
$1.50. If a reduction was made, they as
serted, they would be compelled to vote
against the adoption of the report.
The conference committee, after re
ceiving this ultimatum, gave Its consid
eration with the President's ultimatum,
sent In later in the day. and finally sent
back word to the Northwestern men that
It would be Impossible to grant their re
quest. Serious as would be their opposi

mittee, it would be even more serious to
Invite a Presidential veto, and therefore
the committee felt compelled to accept
the compromise rate on lumber.
Upon receipt of this reply the North
westerners went into executive session,
and at Its conclusion sent back word to
the conference committee tnat they would

WOMAN DIES AT HER WORK
Thunder Storm Brings Relief for
Time, but Temperature Again
Creeps Vp People Flee in
Vain to Steamers.
CHICAGO. Julv 29. (Special.) A bits
terins heat today caused five deaths In
this city. There were Si serious prostra
tions reported to the police, but this
probably does not represent more than
one-third the actual number. Heavy
Democratic Offer Rejected.
After the Democrats had reached the
corridors, they held a little conference of
their own. Representative Champ Clark
of Missouri, was called back to the
Chamber. He was given a copy of the
bill as the conferees intended to report
It. except for the schedules discussed by
the President in his letter. The Demo
crats then went Into session.
The minority members were In the
conference chamber leas than an hour.
Representative Griggs said that, tf the
Republicans would consent to put cotton
bagging on the free list, his associates
would show frrf at celerity infringing the
conference report to a vote. Many con
ferees were disposed to grant this re
quest, but Representative McCatl, of
Massachusetts effectively protested.
Cannon Beaten on Gloves.
After the Democrats left there was a
recess. Representative Fordney and Rep
resentative Calderhead went to the W hite
House and then to the office of Speaker
Cannon and then back to the conference
chamber. Later they conferred with a
number of Northwestern Senators who
mere Interested In the lumber question.
Speaker Cannon hurried to the conference
room. He has bf en one of the chief sup
porters of the House rates on gloves.
There was no opportunity to compro
mise on gloves. The President said the
rate must not be advanced beyond the
figures of the Senate bill, which are the
same as the existing duties, except that
Rclimaschen gloves are reduced from $1.75
a duxen to J1.J5. These rates were
adopted.
Slight Concession on Iamler.
On lumber some concessions were made.
In spite of the fact that the Fresulent s
instructions were complied with to the
letter. Rough lumber was made dutia
ble at $1.5 per thousand feet; finished on
one side, $1.75; finished on two sides or
one tde planed and tongued and grooved.
$2.15; tinished on three sides, J.aS,
finished on four sides. J2.SK.
To conciliate Senators Piles and Jones
the conferees adopted the Senate rate of
i) cents a thousand on shingles. Instead
of the House rate of 30 cents.
In order to obtain the support of Sena
tor Heyburn, the differential on pig lead
in bars was restored to 21 cents a pound.
Duty Put on Tallow.
In view of the action of the conferees
in putting hides on the free list, a con
cession was made to the cattle industry
by taking tallow off the free list and
making it dutiable at IS cents a pound.
The rates on hosiery were fixed by in
creases of about CO per cent in grades
valued at $1.50 and $2 a dozen pairs. This
Is an increase over existing rates, but a
material decrease from the House ad
vances. On all other values of hosiery
the Dir.gley rates, re-enacted by the Sen
ate, were retained.

said to have been made to him by Sen
ator Bourne, virtually forced the North
western Senators to come to his terms.
OFFICIALS AT MEDFORD
Kruttschnitt and J. P. O'Brien Are
Driven Through Orchards.
MEDFORD. Or.. July 2. (Special.)
T'pon their arrival In this city this even
ing. J. Kruttschnitt. director of main
tenance of the Harrlman lines, and J. P.
O'Brien, were taken for an automobile
ride about the valley by the Medford
Commercial Club.
Mr. Kruttschnitt expressed himself as
delighted with what he saw. "You have
a wonderful little valley, of which I have
heard much," he said. "I wish I could
stay longer with you."
He declined to discuss the situation In
Central Oregon.

thunder storms and a rainfall for two
hours in the middle of the day did not
bring the promised relief. Instead, . it
Keemed to bring on suffocating humidity.
. The heat record for the year was broken
at 13:46 P. M., when the mercury reached
the 92 mark. Then came the storms, and
the temperature fell off 16 degrees In
almost as many minutes. From 76, how'
ever, the temperature again crept up
rapidly, and In two hours was at 85 and
still mounting higher.
Of 22 prostrations reported to the au
thorities, seven are very serious and will
probably result in death within 62 hours.
An unidentified man was captured In a
raving condition. He gave the name of
"John Albert," and was outlining plans
to build cities at the Xorth Pole. One
of the women in the death list was fa
tally stricken In church and the other
died while scrubbing a floor.
The suffering was not confined to the
congested tenement districts. It was all
over" the city. Thousands who Hastened
to the parks and out upon the lake in
excursion steamers found no relief. The
Intense humidity made breathing diffi
cult and the heat wilted and crumpled
humanity Into a badly frazzled condition.

the sale of these garments would be an
event.
Inquiries from customers for
suits were made in the depart
ment all day,' but in keeping

than $20.00 and some of them as
high as $50.00.
In this sale, which is held solely for the

we have never offered such values before.
