New Senate M easure Gives Pow er to
S ta rt T ariff W ar.
W ashington, May 4.—The senate
tariff bill, in the section which deals
w ith the maximum and minimum prop­
osition, has, in the judgm ent of tariff
experts, one very im portant feature
It practically vests in the president the
power to declare a tariff w ar against
any nation or to refrain from any such
war.
I t is given to him to decide w hether
any nation is discrim inating against
the products of the U nited S tates in its
system of duties.
This perm its the
governm ent, through the S ate depart­
ment and the otfn r agencies provided
by law, to m ake agreem ents w ith other
nations as to trade and tariff conces­
sions which can be made effective by a
proclam ation of the president, w ithout
the necessity of anything in the way
of legislation or tre a ty agreem ent.
The bill authorizes the president to
employ a t his discretion any persons to
procure inform ation or assist him in
the discharge of these duties, which
would mean th a t he can appoint com­
m issioners representing the United
S ta te s to go abroad and make agree­
m ents w ith foreign nations.
A t the sam e tim e, a ttention is paid
to the wishes of those who are not in
favor of reciprocal agreem ents of any
kind. The proposition m akes it impos
sible to have any ra te established lower
than the ra te in the tariff law. Any
change in the case of any nation must
be a change in the way of higher du­
ties. No am ount of bargaining or con­
cession can secure fo r any country any
reduction in the tariff law.

Havoc in Middle W eil.
Chicago, A pril 30.—Two terrific
storm s, sw eeping over Middle W est
sta te s w ithin 12 hours of each other
yesterday paralyzed the region from
Chicago to the G ulf as seldom before.
Both Btorms w ere accompanied by
thunder and lightning and deluging
to rren ts of rain, and both caused loss
of life, not only in th is city, but in re­
gions to the south.
Two towns, H arrulton, A rk., and
Hornlake, Miss., are reported as com­
pletely demolished by tornado-like
winds th a t sw ept over the p ra iries dur­
ing the day; and reports of death and
destruction in a lesser degree are com­
ing in over the crippled w ires from
every point w ith which communication
can be opened.
Coincident w ith the violent gale r e ­
ported in the Middle states, unseason­
able falls of snow are reported to both
the east and w est of the stricken area.
In New York several inches of snow is
reported from the rural d istricts, while
the big m etropolis itself had a violent
snow squall early in the day. From
W yoming comes the rep o rt of suffering
on the sheep ranges caused by a five-
inch fall of snow.
Snow is also reported from P itts ­
burg, M ilwaukee and Montana points.
A squall, w ith wind blowing 45
m iles an hour, and rain falling in to r­
rents, struck Chicago a t 6:15 o ’clock
last night. W’ires w ent down in every
direction and
comm unication w ith
