amendment to tha Underwood bill, re

The Underwood bill Itself waa voted

night that tha House would be willing to
meet the Senate In compromise and that
sn sgreeemnt would be reached between
the two houses.
"I would not acree to the bill as It
passed the Senate." Mr. Underwood said,
"and I do not think the Houa would
acre to IL But 1 hop to se some
sort of wool bill passed, and I hope It
will be possible for the two houses to
get together on a measure which win
Mti9y botn. 1 wouia not aianu out u

Mr. Underwood expressed the opinion
that the wool bill would not necessitate
making the date of adjournment later
than at present contemplsted shortly
sfter the vote on statehood on August T
aa the conferees would get together,

La Folleite Explains Bill.
In offering bis amendment La FoI
Iette took the position that the re
ductions. If adopted, would comnen
sat th farmer at least la part for
the losses they would suffer as result
of free trade In agricultural products
with Canada.
The effect of the amendments to
schedule K which I now propose." he
said, "are as follows; Duty on clothlnsr
wools. 49 per cent: carpet wools. 10 per
eent; tops. 45 per cent: yarn. 60 per
cent; carpets, 40 per cant; on cloths
and all other manufactures composed
entirely of wool or having; wool aa the
component matsrlal of chief value. 60
per cent-
Th present average duty on raw
wool Is a fraction less than 45 per cent.
In proposing a duty of 40 psr cent ad
valorem. I make no wide departure
from the duties paid today on raw
wools on the average. It will do
away, however, with the gross Inequal
ities and discriminations under which
the users of the cheaper wools, which
go to make up the poor man's clothing,
have to labor under the present speclflo
duties.
"A straight ad valorem duty of 40
per cent will do away with prohtbllve
rates and will reduce the rates on
wools which manufacturers of woolen
goods need today for the purpose of
blending with our own wools.
Coarser Wool Benefited.
"The ad valorem duty will also do
away with the present Injustice of sub
jecting wools that contain three
fourths of their weight In grease and
dirt to the same duty aa the fine- ex
pensive wools, with a shrinkage of say
10 per cent.
"Passing now to the proposed duties
on Intermediate and finished products.
the principle underlying them Is that
In all cases a compensating duty equiv
alent to th duty on raw wool shall be
Imposed in addition to a protective
duty, which Is to cover . the difference
In the cost of production at home and
abroad In the manufactured article."
Senator La FoIIette aald that the pro
posed amendments of duties on manu
facture of wool would result In a re
duction from I. SI per cent ad valorem
under th present law. to 66.02 per cant
or more than II per cent ad valorem,
and more than IT per cent below the
present rate. The change for the wool
schedule as a whole would represent
a reduction from an average ad va
lorem of 6I.T4 per cent under the pres
ent law to SC Il per cent, or a reduction
of 13 S per cent ad valorem and more
than 34 per cent below the pressat rata.

In cross-examining Attorney Hanecy,
representing Senator Lorimer, said the
deposit slips had been Juggled, both
at the present and at the former Lori

absolved attorney or others connected
with the committee from his charge.
The cross-examination ended sudden
ly when Hanecy persisted In asking
the witness, after he said he had no
knowledge on the subject, about Indict
ment brought against his father.
Chairman Dillingham suggested that
other witnesses could give better testi
mony on the point and assured Hanecy
that every witness he desired would
be compelled to attend the hearings, if
possible.

tective agency, told of working on the

TROLLER BAY MESSAGE WEAK.
Root of Matter Untouched" by
President, Is Gist of Statement
Issued by Conservationist.
WASHINGTON, July J7. "The Presi
dent's defense of his course In the
Controller Bay affair shows how hard
It is to make a good excuse for a bad
mistake," said Glfford Plnchot, ex-chlef
of the Bureau of Forestry and now
president of the National Conservation
Association, in a statement issued to
day. He declares that President Taft,
In his message to the senate "leaves
the root of the matter untouched."
Concluding. Plnchot says:
"It Is unfortunate that the friends of
conservation, in their efforts to bring
about the development of Alaska for
the benefit of the people, are contin
ually obliged to expend their strength
against the men who ought to be the
orotector of the people's property. It
looks to be like unnecessary duplica
tion of work when we must first fight
the policemen before we can get a
chance to stop the looting, i
"In spite of all explanations, the fact
remains that Mr. Taft, in opening tne
lands around Controller Bay without
notice to the publlo has given the in
terests behind Ryan an opportunity to
sea u ire the key to the channel of Con
troller Bay before the public knew
what was going on."
