Faced by a robber with two revolvers, Charles Waltle, 25 years old, a land scape gardener employed In Rlvervlew Cemetery and living on Carson Heights, last night decided to "take a chance,'1 as he expressed it, In a lonely spot 200 feet west of the end of the Fulton car line. As a result he Is lying in SL Vin cent's Hospital with Ave stab wounds In his head, neck and arms, inflicted by a second holdup man, who leaped upon him from behind with a pocket knife.

Chairman Simmons, of the Senate finance com mittee, sees merit in an amendment to the tariff bill, suggested today by As sistant Attorney-General Denlson and Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Curtis, to authorize the Secretary of the Treasury to proclaim valuations on lm ports. It is asserted that would pre vent undervaluations and avoid con' fusion resulting from fluctuating for eign market value and ad valorem rates. 'The bill as It is,' Chairman Simmons said, "has many safeguards against un del-valuations, but the proposal to em power-the Secretary of the Treasury to fix import values In the American mar ket would be an additional check. It would answer the principal objection advanced against an ad valorem tariff system. The suggestion will receive the most serious consideration." Underwood Is Consulted. The plan will be taken up by the committee next week. Chairman Un derwood, of the ways and means com mittee, also was consulted by Mr. JJeni- son and Mr. Curtis. Chief interest In the tariff now lies In the contest over the question of public hearings, precipitated by Senator Pen rose. There Is a possibility the Repub licans may rally enough Democratic support to their plan to defeat the ma jority party In its tariff programme at this Juncture. Such a development un doubtedly would result in slowing up consideration of the measure in the Senate. That Is the Democratic chief objection to public hearings. They feel that hearings would not result in m- terlal alterations of the bill, and that the country Is entitled to the new law as soon as It possibly can De made ready for the statute books. Lonlslanans Favor Hearings. Senators Ransdell and Thornton, of Louisiana, are openly in favor of the hearings. Senator Martine and others have expressed themselves favorably to them, but the Democratic leaders as sert that they will have enough votes to defeat the Penrose amendment when it comes up Tuesday. The bill then will be formally- referred to the finance committee. Secretary Redfleld today suggested to Chairman Simmons that tne committee consider the advisability of changing the date that some of the schedules be come eirective. una textile inuustry is particularly desirous of gaining a little time to adjust ltsen to ine new con dltlons and to get rid of valuable ma terial on which high duties have been Dald. Another suggestion made Dy feecre- tary Redfield referred to the advisa bilitv of having tne income tax com nuted from July 1. 1913, instead of January 1. 1813.
