PAGE KIOUT. THE MORNING ASTOKTAN, WEDNESDAY, MAKC119, 1001. SENATOR FULTON OPPOSED SWEEPING TARIFF REVISION Says Radical Readjustment Would Be In advisable Because of Increased Expenditure of Government. Says It Would Be Good Thing for Oregon if Coal Could Be Placed on Free List, but That Such Action Would Necessitate Adding Lumber, Wheat and Other Products to the Untaxed Schedule-Material Revision Is Unlikely. Senator Fulton eaye That free coat would bo good thing, but tht free col a would mun free lumboc and froo wheat.

The senator seems to think there will be some readjust ment of the tariff schedule now In ef fect, but he U opposed to anything like a general attempt to reduce existing rates. He explains that the govern ment needs the money, as our national expenditures will be vastly increased because of unusual expenditures. With reference to the suggestion that coal be placed on the free list, Senator Fulton believes such action would not be advisable. He says other Interest j would demand other articles on the fm list, such as Canadian products ell (kinds, and that the free coal rrdM j would therefore be a bad one to - tablhsh. 111 s?ruv .twi . ' received yesterday by a prominent Aa- torlan. he enlalna the bill recently Introduced to prevent the fala label ing of canned salmon. The letter will prove of especial Interest, and Is here with appended In full: "Washington, Feb. SI I have just received your letter of the 15th Inst The salmon labeling bill I have intro duced does not propose to require the month when the flan ' was taken or packed to be printed on the label. In deed, it does not require any label whatever to be placed on the package. It simply prohibits any false state ment being made either as to the char acter of the fish packed, or the season of the year when packed, or the place where the fish was taken. Consequent ly it would be perfectly proper to print on the label "spring packed' or tall packed,' or no Indication whatever of the season or place where the fish was packed need be printed on the label. "1 note what you have to say about 1 hoin? nlaced on the free list. It is true that free coal woul be a great advantage to Oregon, but you. must bear in mind that we can not expect to get free coal without consenting to the 'admission of a number of other things duty free; for instance, lumber S1B.OO Fine Quartered Oak, Swell Front Drearer.

The Hrlt Uh ahlp Simla, now loading lumber at Irt Ulakety, caught lire early yea terdAT morning and waa damaged more than t:.W- The lire etarted In the salt looker, where 15000 worth of new canvaa waa deatroyeil. It then Kread forward of the foremast to the stem and completely gutted the vensel for a distance of 40 feet. Had it not been for the Valiant work of the Seattle nreboat, Snoqualmle. which waa sent for, the vessel would have been a total loan. The Simla was anchored near several other sailing vessels, and there were no tugs to tow them out of danger Had the fire reached the upper part ol the ship and In line with the wind It Is probable that other vessels would have been destroyed also. When the Snoqualmle arrived the blaae wna be ing fought with one u-ln h hose from the vessel and but little headway waa being gained on the lire. Three big streams from the flreboat soon put out the blase. The Simla waa loading lumber for Sydney, Australia. She waa cum lr Glasgow In 1890. Her gross tonnage Is 2374. Woman's Athletio Club.
