I called an extra session of the gist Congress at which a general re vision of the tariff was made and adopted In th. Payne bilL It wae contended by tboae who opposed the Payne -bill that the extatlng rates of the Dlnaley bill were ex cessive and that the rates adopted In the revising statute were not suflclently reduced to confo-m to the promised xntssure. The great difficulty, however. In discus sing the new rates adopted, was that there waa no means available by which Impartial persona could determine what. In fact, was the difference In cost of production between the products of this country and the same products abroad. The American publlo be came deeply Impressed with the conviction thai. In order to secure a proper revision ef the tariff In the future, exact Informa tion aa to the effect of the new rates must be had and that the evil of log-rolling or a compromise between advocates of differ ent protected Industries In fixing ut'es could be avoided and the Interest of the consuming publlo could be properly guarded only by revising the tariff on. schedule t a time. . .

In order to show that real advance and reform In tariff-mnklng are to be found In the acquiring of accurate and Impartial Information ss to the effect of tha proposed tariff chan.es under each schedule bsfor they are adopted, and fur ther to show that If delay In the pasaace of a Bill to am ."ml schedule K csn be had until December. Conaress will then be tn poeeeselon of a full and satisfactory report uoon the whole schedule. This brings me to the constderstlo. of the terms of the bill presented for niv approval. Schedule K Is the most complicated sched ule In the terlff. It classifies raw wool with different rstes for different clsases: It affords the manufacturer what Is called a compensatory duty to make up for the In creased price ef the raw material he has to use, due to the rate on raw wool, and for the ehrlnkage that takee place In scour ing the wool for menufsctures: and it Ives him. In addition, an ad valorem duty to protect mm attain xi xoreiau competition with ehean tabor. The usages which pre vail In soourlns the wool.

In order that the new bill shall fur- nleh the proper measure oi p ---no more. Nor have 1 sources of Information which sstlsfy me that the bill P"11"" to me for signature will accomplish this result. . ... , The parllsmentary history of the bill IS not reassuring on this point. It was Intro duced and passed In the House as provid ing a tsrlff for revenue only and wltn tne avowed purpose of departing from a protec tive tariff policy.

SCOIT IS YET IN JAIL MAX CHARGED WITH ROBBIXG WIFE CAXT GET BAIL. Alleg-ed Theft of $5000 Worth of Diamonds From &pons Xot Shown at Hearing. GRANTS PASS, Or.. Augr. 17. (Spe cial.) Lloyd Scott, who was arrested upon a warrant sworn out by his wife alleging larceny, la yet In Jail on ac count of being unable to get 1000 ball. The trouble between Mr. and Mrs. Scott started a few weeks ago. when Scott received letters from his parents at Bloomington. 111., asking; him to come there. Up to that tlm. sll is said to have been well and happy. Scott had concluded to go, and ln preparing- to leave be packed his trunk, and Mrs. Scott charged him with taking- $300. Later she preferred another charge against him of stealing Jewelry and diamonds valued at J5000, but on the preliminary hearing the case was dis missed. Mr. and Mrs. Scott came here a short time ago and bought a seven-acre or chard down th. river and made a part pivment upon it. Mrs. Vera Scott Is ;6 t ears of age and thla 1s said to be) her third matrimonial venture. Her last husband was named Prosser. She secured a divorce from him. Following tlie separation both met on a train at Llbby. Mont., and Prosaer invited his former wife to the compartment where he was riding.'"' and with the aid of llauor old troubles were revived and a quarrel resulted in which Mrs. Scott shot Prosser. She pleaded aell-delensa and was cleared of the charge. It developed In the Justice Court trial of Mr. Scott here that the de fendant and Mrs. Scott had lived to aether from September until January. at which time they concluded to get married. The marriage took place la Portland. Scott has followed the oc cupation of selling pianos. BALLOON, MILE UP, BURSTS Jack Broadwlck Makes Long Drop Before Parachute Opens.

Not until the body of young Broadwlck was seen hurtling through the air could It ba told what had happened. Balloon, boy and parachute fell to gether. While the fall was rapid, there was enough flapping canvas to catch the air and furnish enough resistance so that the boy could pull and cut the rope that held the parachute to the balloon.
