ffl SHE II I-11 SIRS. R. C. TETZLAFF, THREAT- ENED WITH PROSECUTION FOR BIGAMY, A FREE "WOMAN HUSBAITD SECURED A DIVORCE Girl Wife Led AMrny, Who Ha* Sowed the Wind and Is Reaping: the Whirl- wind. LISBON, N. D., April 21.—(Special.)- If there is any truth In the story coming from New Paynesville, Minn., and pub- lished in a recent issue of the Globe, in reference to the alleged pending pros- ecution of Mrs. R. C. Tetzlaff, in Cali- fornia, on an accusation of bigamy, in marrying a private in the regular army,- without having obtained a divorce from her former husband, the young woman can now snap her fingers at the minions of the law, as she is a free woman, so far as her former matrimonial alliance is concerned, her ex-husband having, a short time ago, obtained a decree of divorce from her in the district court of this county. The court records here show that Robert C. Tetzlaff and Alice A. Davis were married at Janesville, .Wis., Nov. 30. 1597. They lived for a while at Elbow Lake, Minn., prior to re- moving to Anselm, this county, where .Tetzlaff was employed by the Soo line as station agent and telegraph operator. While living in Minnesota Mrs. Tetzlaff was a member of "Sunshine" lodge. New Paynesville, but little sunshine seems to have been infused into her married life. After a residence of about a week at Anselm. the young wife, who was then only about eighteen years old, with a "baby boy, was persuaded to leave her husband, going to Colorado. Thence she drifted to California, where she is said to have formed a new matrimonial part- nership which is probably the one that was reported to be liable to make her trouble. A short time since, the poor, frail girl for she is still really a child—after learning of the proceedings pending here seeking the severance of the matrimonial bonds which still bound the fledglings together, wrote from Florence, Col., to her husband a brief but pathetic history of her waywardness after her elopement With Watson, a Soo brakeman. in which, she said: "I am a woman not yet twen- ty-one, but broken in trust and spirit. J suspect everyone of base and selfish motives. I trust no one young or old. 2 suppose I am going to , for I gave "Up religion when I gave up everything else. I have nothing to live for, noth- ing to care for; nothing to love left. So to the devil I go. I have, to add to my misery, broken my arm and given away my baby, the fruit of my illicit love. O' ; Tetzlaff is still an officer on the Soo line living at Anselm, and has lately put his neck into the matrimonial noose again by marrying Miss Minnie Seelig, of Buttzville, N. D., the daughter of a .well-known German farmer. 'The little two-year-old boy, the issue of the marriage, has been awarded to the plaintiff, and is being cared for by his foster-mother.

MOVE OF FAR-REACHING IMPOR- TANCE TO THE AFFAIRS OF CHINA :£p!p; ADVISES A NEW POLICY Conservative Reforms Recommended . - in the Document Which Treats of Economic and Finan-;'•; cial Conditions. WASHINGTON, April 21.— Chinese minister, Mr. Wu' Ting Fang, is about to make a move of far-reaching importance to the affairs of China and one which cannot, it is believed, but engage the favorable attention of all the foreign powers interested in the affairs of the empire. He is preparing a memorial to the Chinese government, based upon his intimate acquaintance with the affairs of the Western world, and pointing out wherein there is the opportunity for China to adopt an ; enlightened and pro- gressive policy, which will bring it Into harmony with the sisterhood 'of nations,: and at the same time will relieve it from the present perplexities -which are crowding upon . it at all hands. ;.\ The memorial is a comprehensive document, covering twenty . heads, dealing with ad- ministrative, economic and financial ques- tions, and taking In practically, the en- tire range of government affah so far as there seems to be a present oppor- tunity of rehabilitating them on modern and progressive lines. The document .is, however, most conservative in character and purposely avoids radicalism and ex- treme reforms- which have interfered, with previous efforts to bring about a change in the existing order of affairs. . In determining upon this course. Min- ister Wu is acting entirely upon his own initiative and responsibility, and with- out any reference to his status as minis- ter to Washington or any suggestion from officials here. Quite apart from his position as minister, he continues to have a most lively interest in the wel- fare of his country. Moreover, his long service abroad, both in Europe and Amer- ica, his knowledge of the English lan- guage, and his keen powers of conserva- tion, have afforded him opportunities of observing how far the modern system of the Western world could be adopted without shock to the ancient system of China. While he has had the matter, In contemplation for some time, yet there has been no occasion or opportunity, for giving expression to his plans. Now, however, this opportunity has presented Itself in the form of a recent imperial edict inviting the high officials of China at home and abroad—viceroys, governors and ministers abroad— present to the government every facility at their com- mand to aid In overcoming the nresent disastrous condition of affairs. Acting upon this edict, Mr. Wu ha* prepared his comprehensive memorial to the government. Probably the most im- portant feature of the document 13 its general presentation of the view that the j time is now at hand for China to adopt plans of conservative reform. In stating the need and advantages of this, the minister's memorial will point to the les- son Japan has given to the world. Up I to a few years ago the conditions in I China and Japan were almost identical. But by the gradual adoption of modern methods of procedure Japan has brought herself into close communication with the rest of the world, and now occupies an enviable position along with the other recognized powers. Minister Wu holds that there is nothing lacking in the re- sources of China or in. the character of her people to keep her from securing the same advantages which have come to Jnnan. . -. In some respects Mr. Wu's recommen- dations will take up lines of reform which have been brought forward by the pow- ers in the negotiations at Pekin and will point out that instead of resisting them it will be to the advantage of chi- na to go even further than the powers have suggested. For instance, one of the most important subjects recently un- der consideration has been that relating to the establishment of a foreign office I at Pekin to take the place of the tsung li yamen. The plan of the powers, as recently made known in dispatches from Pekin, is that the old board of ten mem- bers shall be replaced by a new board of five members, with a prince of the blood at its head, two ministers of for- eign affairs and two vice ministers, the latter to have a* knowledge: of foreign languages. This plan has not been whol- ly satisfactory to the foreign ministeis and their governments, but they have accepted it with the belief that it will be at least an improvement on the old tsung li yamen an one which would be more likely to concur with China's de- sire to have important work performed by boards instead of by individuals. Mr. Wu's memorial wi'l go even fur- ther than the powers have suggested as to the establishment of a modern foreign service. Instead of a board, he will pro- pose that one official be given the au- thority and responsibility of directing the foreign affairs of the empire. He does not regard it as essential that this one official shall be a prince of the blood, al- though if need be preference might be given to a prince if he hai the cthe- requisites of ab llty for foregn adminis- tration. The memorial will urge that the supreme test In the self dim of this high official shall be ability and fitness for the special duties to wh'ch he s appointed. It will be pointed out that by virtue of his position he ?h>ull be a member of the privy council, and thus able to secure, ready acre's to the e-n- --peror. While this oTc'al v 0..l l he charg- ed with the responsibility, yet for ad- ministrative purposes he would hive un- der him two or three assistants. \u25a0-' This would constitute the en'ir> executive o~- ganization, so far as relrtes to the for- eign affairs of the ernpre, an ;ch additional officials as might be required would be appointed simp'y for purposes of carrying on the business of the of- fice. There would be no need of two as- sistant secretaries with a knrwledge of foreign languages, as such officials would be nothing more than interpreters. Mr. Wu's .plan is ;to confine '. responsible j au- thority within narrow limits, leavng as- sistants, intfrrre'.ers, etc.. to carry on the administrative work. In other res eet3 the memo-ial will pre- sent in detaT the best feat' r s of West- ern administration as appleable ;to Chi- na. The docament is practically com- pleted and s;o:i will be laiJ : before the imperial government. PHILOSOPHY OF ANARCHISM Kropotikln Says No Minn Has the Risrht to Take Human Life.

NEW: YORK, April 22.—Warned by a loud thunder-clap, with the wind whist- ling through her rigging, the Oranje Nassau, of the Royal Dutch West India mail, which . arrived here from a South American port today, ran into an elec- trical storm on Saturday that struck terror into the passengers. " With the lightning playing all around her the ship seems to be charging a battery of artillery when, with an unex- pectedness equal to the breaking of the gale, the masts and rigging were illumin- ated in the fall of the gloom by great balls, of light, vari-colored St. Elmo's fire. .:.;..; Already benumbed with fear the steer- age passengers cried alotfd in terror at this new. visitation and many, dropping to their knees, prayed for protection. The sailors, callous- to .the preceding demonstrations, were more concerned at the. latter display, for St.-? Elmo's fire is thought a harbinger of misfortune. It took the best efforts-.; of the officers to restore order. . j,r .fj.-?. . .ip The disturbance . was not wholly un- expected, for the sky had become over- cast and lowering, arid a most severe electrical storm preceded. the advent of the strange fire. \u25a0upv.Mi- '.. \u25a0--.: " TRAFFIC OF CHINESE.

SOME OF SUGGESTIONS MADE Thirty-Three Paragraphs Have In- vited Criticism—fiume of the Articles Thiftit Seek Free Doty. ; WASHINGTON, April 21.— is not like- ly that the new Philippine, tariff will be promulgated until after the decision of the supreme, court In the insular cases. It is stated at the war department, where the matter has received considerable con- sideration, that this decision may make it unnecessary for the government to es- tablish a system of tariff rates in the Philippines, although the department has proceeded with the work of equalizing the rates and receiving and considering suggestions as though the coming! de- cision would not make any change in the present conditions. ..'^: Some months ago the war department published the tariff as prepared by the tariff- experts In the j Philippines - and ap- proved by the Taft commission. Interest- ed parties, especially manufacturers and shippers, were invited tojj examine this proposed tariff and make suggestions and criticisms. It Is interesting to note that of the "419 paragraphs in the proposed tariff, only thirty-three, paragraphs have provoked criticism or : suggestion. Even these are In a mild tone, and nearly all take the form of suggestion. Some of the more important suggestions are em- bodied in the following: It is suggested that there will be diffi- culty in making all duties specific, and that in many cases perhaps ad valorem duties will be better. There are soma objections to the metric system, as American goods are in yard folds, and European. goods are in metric folds. If the yard folds are continued it would be better for the American manufacturers. The Manila Chamber of Commerce asks that four months Intervene between the promulgation of the tariff . and its en- forcement. No provision is made for marking . olemargarine to distinguish it from butter. v- The dairy interests think such a provision desirable. A lower rate is asked for gasoline to be used for fuel and for launches. An ad volorem duty is advised upon precious stones and watch- es. One firm suggests that copperas and oxide should be upon .the free list. . ;, It is claimed that cotton. should not be admitted at a lower rate than fabrics woven from such yarn; also that I the weight and washing of cotton tissues should be changed in the interest cf coarser cotton fabrics. There has been quite an extensive discussion of this sub- ject, and It has been pointed out that changes in the Cuban tariff also were needed in this particular. ' -. The free entry of "news" print paper is advocated. Reductions are asked of from 20 to 40 per cent on harness and saddlemakers' wares. It is suggested that cheap and expensive machinery should not pay the same rates. Certain typewriter firms Vant the duty on their machines re- duced. A change is asked in the classification of meat products. It is said that the duty on alcohol should be doubled, or manufacturers of whisky will be able to use alcohol for making whisky at a much less cost than the distilled product. California manufacturers ask a reduc- tion on flour, cereals, prunes, benzine, gasoline and petroleum; some of them suggesting that these articles be placed on the free list. Condensed milk and fish,,the Pacific coast desires, also should be placed on the free list. One suggestion made is that all ma- terials for the United States forces should be admitted free of duty. Some rather interesting. information has reached the war department in con. nection with the tariff, it being shown that Russia sends to the Philippines two- fifths of all the petroleum imported by the people of the islands.

After the duke re- turned from Spain he visited his father- in-law, where he saw the duchess. This morning the ; duchess drove to the.Hotel Bristol;., where she was joined by the duke, . and together, the Marlboroughs proceeded. to London.

Ohio Is Driving the Families Along: the ' Riveir Front to the Second Stories. MAYSVILLE, Ky., April 21.—The resi- dents of Front street, In this city, began moving up stairs this afternoon on account of high water. The Ohio river has risen eleven' feet. since yesterday evening, rising three and a half inches per hour. The government gauge regis- tered forty-seven feet at 7 a. m. A blinding snow storm has been raging all afternoon. . Trains from the East are from four to six hours late.

Back water has caused much damage, extending out into the country for miles. / r FLOOD BULLETIN FROM WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON, April 21—The river situation at Pittsburg Is somewhat re- lieved tonight. At 10 a. m., after reach- ing a maximum stage of 27.5 feet, or 5.5 feet above- the danger, line, the Monon- gahela river began to fall, and at S p. m. the stage was 25.9 feet, a fall of 1.6 since morning. The maximum stage reached in the Allegheny river was 28.6 feet. Below Pittsburg the river is still rising. At Wheeling, W. Va., at noon, the river was \u25a0 1.6 feet above the danger line of 36 feet, and rising, and an extreme high- water stage of at least forty-three feet is indicated during Monday. At Parkersburg the stage at 7 p. m. was 40 feet, 4 feet above the danger line, and a rise of three feet since 8 a. m. A further rise, probably to forty-eight feet expected during the next twenty-four hours. - \u25a0" \u25a0""• '"• ""\u25a0" Below Parkersburg the Kanaha, Big Sandy and Scioto were sending out their flood volumes, and at noon the Ohio be- tween Point Pleasant, W. Va., and Cin- cinnati was . rising from one-half to one foot an hour, and rapidly ap- proaching or passing the danger lines at all points. At Cincinnati, at 7 p. m., tho stage of the river was 42.4 feet, with every" indication" that the' danger line of fifty feet will be reached or ex- ceeded by noon Monday. It is still raining or snowing over the upper Ohio; valley, and therefore Impos- sible to accurately predict the time of the height of the flood crests below Park- ersburg, .however, the danger lines will be passed at all . stations above Cincinnati by' Sunday night, and still higher stages prevail during Monday. Point Pleasant^ W. Va., at 7 p. m., already reports a stage of "47 feet, or 8 feet above the danger line, due to the \ Kanawha river flood-waters.

I suffered with headaches, which were situated in the back part of my head. I was very nervous, would tremble because excited at times, and my heart would flutter so that I had to hold my chest. I was constipated, had pains in my stom- ach, my eyes would feel heavy, and I would at times vomit in the morn- ing. I had no_ appetite, no ambition, and would feel sleepy, even after a prolonged sleep.

ENED WITH PROSECUTION FOR

BIGAMY, A FREE "WOMAN

HUSBAITD SECURED A DIVORCE

Girl Wife Led AMrny, Who Ha*Sowed the Wind and Is

Reaping: the Whirl-

wind.

LISBON, N. D., April 21.—(Special.)-If there is any truth In the story comingfrom New Paynesville, Minn., and pub-lished in a recent issue of the Globe,in reference to the alleged pending pros-ecution of Mrs. R. C. Tetzlaff, in Cali-fornia, on an accusation of bigamy, inmarrying a private in the regular army,-without having obtained a divorce fromher former husband, the young womancan now snap her fingers at the minionsof the law, as she is a free woman, sofar as her former matrimonial allianceis concerned, her ex-husband having, ashort time ago, obtained a decree ofdivorce from her in the district courtof this county. The court records hereshow that Robert C. Tetzlaff and AliceA. Davis were married at Janesville,.Wis., Nov. 30. 1597. They lived for awhile at Elbow Lake, Minn., prior to re-moving to Anselm, this county, where.Tetzlaff was employed by the Soo lineas station agent and telegraph operator.While living in Minnesota Mrs. Tetzlaffwas a member of "Sunshine" lodge. NewPaynesville, but little sunshine seems tohave been infused into her married life.After a residence of about a week atAnselm. the young wife, who was thenonly about eighteen years old, with a"baby boy, was persuaded to leave herhusband, going to Colorado. Thence shedrifted to California, where she is saidto have formed a new matrimonial part-nership which is probably the one thatwas reported to be liable to make hertrouble.

A short time since, the poor, frail girl—for she is still really a child—afterlearning of the proceedings pending hereseeking the severance of the matrimonialbonds which still bound the fledglingstogether, wrote from Florence, Col., toher husband a brief but pathetic historyof her waywardness after her elopement

With Watson, a Soo brakeman. in which,she said: "I am a woman not yet twen-ty-one, but broken in trust and spirit.

J suspect everyone of base and selfishmotives. I trust no one young or old.2 suppose I am going to , for I gave"Up religion when I gave up everything

else. I have nothing to live for, noth-ing to care for; nothing to love left.So to the devil I go. I have, to add tomy misery, broken my arm and givenaway my baby, the fruit of my illicit

love. O' ;Tetzlaff is still an officer on the Soo

line living at Anselm, and has lately

put his neck into the matrimonial nooseagain by marrying Miss Minnie Seelig,

of Buttzville, N. D., the daughter of a.well-known German farmer.'The little two-year-old boy, the issue

of the marriage, has been awarded tothe plaintiff, and is being cared for byhis foster-mother.

1 111 A 111!MOVE OF FAR-REACHING IMPOR-

TANCE TO THE AFFAIRSOF CHINA :£p!p;

ADVISES A NEW POLICY

Conservative Reforms Recommended. - in the Document Which Treats

of Economic and Finan-;'•;cial Conditions.

WASHINGTON, April 21.— Chineseminister, Mr. Wu' Ting Fang, is about tomake a move of far-reaching importanceto the affairs of China and one whichcannot, it is believed, but engage thefavorable attention of all the foreignpowers interested in the affairs of theempire. He is preparing a memorial tothe Chinese government, based upon hisintimate acquaintance with the affairsof the Western world, and pointing outwherein there is the opportunity forChina to adopt an ; enlightened and pro-gressive policy, which will bring it Intoharmony with the sisterhood 'of nations,:and at the same time will relieve itfrom the present perplexities -which arecrowding upon . it at all hands. ;.\ Thememorial is a comprehensive document,covering twenty . heads, dealing with ad-ministrative, economic and financial ques-tions, and taking In practically, the en-tire range of government affah so faras there seems to be a present oppor-tunity of rehabilitating them on modernand progressive lines. The document .is,however, most conservative in characterand purposely avoids radicalism and ex-treme reforms- which have interfered,with previous efforts to bring about achange in the existing order of affairs. .

In determining upon this course. Min-ister Wu is acting entirely upon his owninitiative and responsibility, and with-out any reference to his status as minis-ter to Washington or any suggestionfrom officials here. Quite apart fromhis position as minister, he continues tohave a most lively interest in the wel-fare of his country. • Moreover, his longservice abroad, both in Europe and Amer-ica, his knowledge of the English lan-guage, and his keen powers of conserva-tion, have afforded him opportunities ofobserving how far the modern system ofthe Western world could be adoptedwithout shock to the ancient system ofChina. While he has had the matter, Incontemplation for some time, yet therehas been no occasion or opportunity, forgiving expression to his plans. Now,however, this opportunity has presentedItself in the form of a recent imperialedict inviting the high officials of Chinaat home and abroad—viceroys, governorsand ministers abroad— present to thegovernment every facility at their com-mand to aid In overcoming the nresentdisastrous condition of affairs.

Acting upon this edict, Mr. Wu ha*prepared his comprehensive memorial tothe government. Probably the most im-portant feature of the document 13 itsgeneral presentation of the view that the jtime is now at hand for China to adoptplans of conservative reform. In statingthe need and advantages of this, theminister's memorial will point to the les-son Japan has given to the world. Up Ito a few years ago the conditions in IChina and Japan were almost identical.But by the gradual adoption of modernmethods of procedure Japan has broughtherself into close communication with therest of the world, and now occupies anenviable position along with the otherrecognized powers. Minister Wu holdsthat there is nothing lacking in the re-sources of China or in. the character ofher people to keep her from securing thesame advantages which have come toJnnan. . -.

In some respects Mr. Wu's recommen-dations will take up lines of reform whichhave been brought forward by the pow-ers in the negotiations at Pekin andwill point out that instead of resistingthem it will be to the advantage of chi-na to go even further than the powershave suggested. For instance, one ofthe most important subjects recently un-der consideration has been that relatingto the establishment of a foreign office Iat Pekin to take the place of the tsungli yamen. The plan of the powers, asrecently made known in dispatches fromPekin, is that the old board of ten mem-bers shall be replaced by a new boardof five members, with a prince of theblood at its head, two ministers of for-eign affairs and two vice ministers, thelatter to have a* knowledge: of foreignlanguages. This plan has not been whol-ly satisfactory to the foreign ministeisand their governments, but they haveaccepted it with the belief that it will beat least an improvement on the oldtsung li yamen an one which would bemore likely to concur with China's de-sire to have important work performedby boards instead of by individuals.

Mr. Wu's memorial wi'l go even fur-ther than the powers have suggested asto the establishment of a modern foreignservice. Instead of a board, he will pro-pose that one official be given the au-thority and responsibility of directing theforeign affairs of the empire. He doesnot regard it as essential that this oneofficial shall be a prince of the blood, al-though if need be preference might begiven to a prince if he hai the cthe-requisites of ab llty for foregn adminis-tration. The memorial will urge thatthe supreme test In the selfdim of thishigh official shall be ability and fitnessfor the special duties to wh'ch he sappointed. It will be pointed out that byvirtue of his position he ?h>ull be amember of the privy council, and thusable to secure, ready acre's to the e-n---peror. While this oTc'al v 0..l l he charg-ed with the responsibility, yet for ad-ministrative purposes he would hive un-der him two or three assistants. \u25a0-' Thiswould constitute the en'ir> executive o~-ganization, so far as relrtes to the for-eign affairs of the ernpre, an ;chadditional officials as might be requiredwould be appointed simp'y for purposesof carrying on the business of the of-fice. There would be no need of two as-sistant secretaries with a knrwledge offoreign languages, as such officials wouldbe nothing more than interpreters. Mr.Wu's .plan is ;to confine '. responsible jau-thority within narrow limits, leavng as-sistants, intfrrre'.ers, etc.. to carry onthe administrative work.

In other res eet3 the memo-ial will pre-sent in detaT the best feat' r s of West-ern administration as appleable ;to Chi-na. The docament is practically com-pleted and s;o:i will be laiJ : before theimperial government.

PROMULGATION AWAITS THE DE-CISION. OF" THE SUPREME

COURT IN INSULAR CASES ?'

SOME OF SUGGESTIONS MADE

Thirty-Three Paragraphs Have In-vited Criticism—fiume of the

Articles Thiftit SeekFree Doty.

; WASHINGTON, April 21.— is not like-ly that the new Philippine, tariff will bepromulgated until after the decision ofthe supreme, court In the insular cases.It is stated at the war department, wherethe matter has received considerable con-sideration, that this decision may makeit unnecessary for the government to es-tablish a system of tariff rates in thePhilippines, although the department hasproceeded with the work of equalizingthe rates and receiving and consideringsuggestions as though the coming! de-cision would not make any change in thepresent conditions. ..'^: •

Some months ago the war departmentpublished the tariff as prepared by thetariff-experts In the jPhilippines -and ap-proved by the Taft commission. Interest-ed parties, especially manufacturers andshippers, were invited tojj examine thisproposed tariff and make suggestions andcriticisms. It Is interesting to note thatof the "419 paragraphs in the proposedtariff, only thirty-three, paragraphs haveprovoked criticism or : suggestion. Eventhese are In a mild tone, and nearly alltake the form of suggestion. Some ofthe more important suggestions are em-bodied in the following:It is suggested that there will be diffi-

culty in making all duties specific, andthat in many cases perhaps ad valoremduties will be better. There are somaobjections to the metric system, asAmerican goods are in yard folds, andEuropean. goods are in metric folds. Ifthe yard folds are continued it would bebetter for the American manufacturers.

The Manila Chamber of Commerce asksthat four months Intervene between thepromulgation of the tariff. and its en-forcement. No provision is made formarking . olemargarine to distinguish itfrom butter. v- The dairy interests thinksuch a provision desirable. A lower rateis asked for gasoline to be used for fueland for launches. An ad volorem duty isadvised upon precious stones and watch-es. One firm suggests that copperas andoxide should be upon .the free list. . ;,It is claimed that cotton. should not be

admitted at a lower rate than fabricswoven from such yarn; also that I theweight and washing of cotton tissuesshould be changed in the interest cfcoarser cotton fabrics. There has beenquite an extensive discussion of this sub-ject, and It has been pointed out thatchanges in the Cuban tariff also wereneeded in this particular. ' • -.

The free entry of "news" print paperis advocated.

Reductions are asked of from 20 to 40per cent on harness and saddlemakers'wares. It is suggested that cheap andexpensive machinery should not pay thesame rates. Certain typewriter firmsVant the duty on their machines re-duced.

A change is asked in the classificationof meat products. It is said that theduty on alcohol should be doubled, ormanufacturers of whisky will be ableto use alcohol for making whisky at amuch less cost than the distilled product.

California manufacturers ask a reduc-tion on flour, cereals, prunes, benzine,gasoline and petroleum; some of themsuggesting that these articles be placedon the free list. Condensed milk andfish,,the Pacific coast desires, also shouldbe placed on the free list.

One suggestion made is that all ma-terials for the United States forces shouldbe admitted free of duty.

Some rather interesting. informationhas reached the war department in con.nection with the tariff, it being shownthat Russia sends to the Philippines two-fifths of all the petroleum imported bythe people of the islands.
