SEATTLE. Wash, Nor. 17. The
directors of the proposed Panama
Parlftc International Exposition at San
Francisco were notified last tila-ht that
the Metal Trades Association of Wash
ington and Oregon would co-operate
In the work of obtaining the Indorse
ment of the Government for San Kran
rlsco only on. tha condition that the
fair be construpted under the "open
ahop" principle. The teleirram waa
sent after the meeting of the associa
tion at the Arctic Club, and the action
was Indorsed by the Seattle Employers'
Association.
This action was taken at the semi
annual meeting of the United Metal
Trades Association, comprising the
steel and Iron working Industries and
shipbuilding plants of Seattle. Port
land. Tacoina. Spokane. Everett Bel
Ilngham and other Pacific Northwest
ern cities. Delegates were present
from each of the cities named. Chair
man K. CJ. Krlnk presided.
The telegram waa sent to the exposi

duty on. wool, and to oppose a Republi

renounce their own professed creed
and stand accused before the country of
l.-k of good faith and failure to inaka
yood their promises when tha oppor
tunlty Is offered,
raj no and A Id rich May Change.
Just how the ways and means com
mittee of the present House, header! br
Sereno K. Payne, of New York, and
the finance committee of the Senate,
headed by Senator Aldrlch. of Khoil
Island, would look upon a Mil of thla
nature Is difficult to tell. Personally,
1'ayne and Aldrlch would be against
any such reduction. But It la possible
that even these men. who would not
heed the cry of the rountry during the
special session, mar have learned some
thing from the recent election, and
would be willing to aet aside their per
sonal Judgment for that of the poo
pie. as recorded.
If President Tsft can induce the pres.
ent Kepubllrsn Congress, with such
data as have been collected by the
Tariff Commission, to reduce the wool
schedule, he can probably ward off the
Itemocratlo attempt at forcing an extra
session, or at least rob the Uemocrmts
of such credit aa would accrue to them
should they undertake. In a special i-i
slon. to force a tariff bill upon the re
publican Senate and Republican Presi
dent.
JOVTS FAVOItS EXTRA SESSIOIf
Tariff, Saya lYaMilngtoa Senator,
Should Be Revised.
SEATTLE. Wash.. Not. IT Wesley
L. Jones. Senator from Waahlngton,
believes that President Taft would be
acting wisely If he would call a spe
cial session of Congress to meet irame
dlately at the close of the coming aes
slon. to revise the tariff.
"The verdict In the recent election
shows that the people of the country
are disastlsfled. said Senator Jones to
night. "The thing with which they are
dissatisfied Is the tariff. I believe that
President Taft would be acting wisely
If he would call a special session of
Congress to take up the question of
tariff revision. That is what the people
want, and tha aooner It la done th
better.
"If a special session It not railed for
thla purpose, the Democrats wri take
It up at the long ression. wiu tne re
suit that the entire time of that ses
slon will be devoted to the tariff ques
tion to the exclusion of other Impor
tant matters. Tha people want tariff
revision, and I am In favor of letting
them have it."
POLICE SHJUCEUP GOMES
GATXOlfS ORDER STRIKES AT
DETECTIVE FORCE-
EARLY ACTION POSSIBLE
Continued From First rr
the House, but before he circulated
hie speech for campaign use. he elim
inated thla particular feature.
There are tariff for revenue Demo
crats In Congress, but there are also
protection Demoorata In both bodies,
and especially from some of the manu
facturing Southern states. Can these
two factions be brought together on
any sort of tariff programme? If not.
there would b nothing gained by a
special session, for with the Demo
cratic ranks spilt wide open, the RepuD
ltrana would gain whatever advantage
might accrue from a special tariff ses
sion, and the result, so far aa legislation
Is concerned, would be nil.
It la Intimated, however, that tb
Ivraorritl may take up the Idea ad
vanced by President Taft last Summer,
of undertaking to revise the tariff one
schedule at a time. In thla event. It la
said, they would begin on the woolen
schedule, which waa elated to be the
first one taken up by the Republicans
had they retained control of Congress.
Should the Democratic leaders find It
possible to put through a plan of this
sort, and should the Democratic House
pass a reasonable wool schedule which
would commend Itself to the Senate In
surgents who voted against the wool
schedule of the Payne-Aldrlch bill,
there would be every prospect of suc
cess, and moreover there would be every
reason to expect President Taft to alga
the bill when It reached him.
Credit Would lie Divided.
Rut here again entera the que.Ttlon)
v bet her the Iemorrata or Repuhltcana
would get the most credit out of such
. move. It la recognised that no such
tariff law could he enacted without
the signature of President Tart. r.t,
moreover. If passed during the Id Con
gress, much credit would necesanrily
have to be given those Republican
Senatora whose votes would make Its
passage through that body poinle.
Thus neither party could claim fall
credit for the enactment, and the yrob
blltties are that the Republlcana would
heavier galnera than the Democrats.
They could at least set up the ciaim
that their President Is In favor of rea
sonable revision of th tariff below
the ratea fixed by the Payne-Aldnch
law. and that la Itself would be a strong
card for the Republicans to play In the
lext National campaign.
There la a possibility that the Re
publicans, during the special bsiii.
may art upon the auirgesilon of the
President and undertake, with their
own majority In both houses, to minlify
the woolen schedule of the new ta'llf
law. If this Is attempted, the Demo
crats can not well afford to Interpose
objections, for tbey have committed
Plain Clothe Men to Keep From
Fetty Arrest and Cite Tlmo
to Tracking; Criminal.
NEW TORK. Not. 17. Th shake-up
In th police department, predicted ever
since Mayor Uaynor took office, cam
today. The changes made strike at the
foundations of the police department
and place the entire detective force on
new footing.
Beginning Saturday, there will be no
more branch detective bureaua In any
of the boroughs except Brooklyn. De-
ectlves will no longer report to cap-
alna of precinct or to Inspector of
districts, but to a llentenant-captaln
of detectives, who will be directly re
sponsible to the Inspector at headquar
era tn charge of the entire bureau, who
In turn la under the second Deputy
Commissioner. William Flynn.
In abort the plain clothes men. the
bandy man of captains and inspectors,
th ready errand runner for "th ays
tem." has com to th end of his rope.
Detectives will be no part of the
precinct command and will work Inde
pendently of the uniformed police.
Thla Is the policy of the English de
tective force, which works under Scot
land Tard, a centralised control, and It
also Is In line with the policy of th
secret ervlce In this country.
More than COO detective will have to
adjuat themselves to th naw order.
They will have nothing to do with
gambling, disreputable houses, and
keeping the streets clean of soliciting,
which will be looked after by a spe
cial vie squad. Their business will
be to run down criminal
and nothing else. They will
even refrain from making arrest
wherever possible, leaving that to th
uniformed officer, whose face can be
come known to tb criminal world
without Impairing Its usefulness.

The Famous
Gives the Best Light at Any Price
When you pay more than the Rayo
price for a lamp, you are paying for extra
decorations that cannot add to the quality
of the light. You can't pay for a better
light, because there is none. An oil light
has the least effect on the human eye, and
the Rayo Lamp is the best oil lamp made,
though low in price. You can pay $5, $10,
or $20 for some other lamp, and although
you get a more costly lamp, you can't
get a better light than the white, mellow,
diffused, unflickering light of the low
priced Rayo.
Has strong, durable shade-holder. This sea
son's burner adds to the strength and appearance.
Made of solid brass, nickeled, and easily polished.
