WASHINGTON. Dec 1. Secretary
Knox has written to Senator Curtis, of
Kansas, a letter giving;. Information
compiled by the Government which In
the opinion of Mr. Knox would Justify
legislation to provide a graduated
means of meeting various discrimina
tions by foreign countries against
American commerce.
The Senator has framed a bill calcu
lated to meet the situation.
"The problem." Secretary Knox said,
'is to provide for the removal, so far as
practicable, of such features in the
practice of some foreign nationa as may
be found adverse to our export trade
development, and of serious Import to
those American enterprises directly af
fected."

Secretary Knox cited some of the

not be considered as falling under the
classification of 'undue discrimina
tion."
Secretary Knox' list of countries
showing discriminations, however, he
said, he did not consider as properly
fpesklng "undue" follows in part:
"Belgium Failure of state railways
"Sraln Imposition of rates on cot
tonseed oil to double the duty applied
to competing Imports: denaturing of
cottonseed oil, when imported.
"Venexuela Surtax of 30 per cent
ad valorem upon West Indian Imports,
Including Porto Rico, which would
seem to be entitled to the same- tariff
treatment as the states of the Union.
Secretary Knox said the amendment
doubtless should originate in the House
and he therefore communicated to the
ways and means committee a tentative
draft of the proposed amendment,
which would provide a minimum of 5
per cent ad valorem and a maximum
of 25 per cent, applicable by proclama
tion when the Tresldent Is satisfied
that "another nation's laws or practices
are Inlmlcable to equal opportunity for
American enterprises."

NOVEL BRINGS LAWSUIT
W. H. D.ULY DOESX'T LIKE AL
LUSION'S TO EATIXG.
When Friends Send Marked Copies
of Gelett Burgess' "The Heart
Line" He Sues for $100,000.
NEW YORK,' Dec IS. (Special.)
Gelett Burgess, the novelist, of New
York, has been sued for $100,000 dam-
1 llh.1 K.. Ti'!i.n unn n-in
The cause for the libel is based on
publication of the novel "The Heart
Line," a story of life in San Francisco
before the fire.
Daily now lives In New York. Hi
lawyer, Herman D. Sears, says Dally
lived In San Francisco more than IS
years, that he had large mining inter
ests thereabouts and that he was and
still is well known in San Francisco
and London.
It appears that the alleged attack
upon the character of Daily has to do
with the matter of one's fastidious
ness in eating canvasback) ducks and
one's delicacy in sipping champagne.
all of which is set down in a passage
from "The Heart Line" complained
agatnst In the action.
This and the implied association of
the eater with imbeciles and people of
questionable character tend to hold
the profession np to scorn and ridicule
of society.
William H. Dally had never heard
of "The Heart Line," so his lawyer ex
plained today, until about a year ago,
when friends in- San -Francisco and the
State of Washington and in London be
gan sending him marked copies. What
he read, carefully marked in each
friendly gift, led him to institute the
suit.
