RKPIHLICAN MAKES BITTER AT? TACK ON r'AKMKHS' 1 HI I MM Focht and Sim* Engaged In Rapid ?rv IneTpcllatlon on Coat of Ex. S?^|on Washington. May 4.?Not since the Republican guns were unlimbered against the Democratts free list bill by Jams* H. Mann, minority leader, over a week ago, has the debats in the house developed such an attack on the measure aa made today by Representative Hill (Conn.), a Re? publican member of the ways and means committee and one of the leading Republican advocates of the Canadian reciprocity bill. Mr. Hill declared that the bill de vised by the Democratic leaders re? moving tie* tariff dutlea from many food producta and manufactured ar? ticles waa so crudely drawn and so Indefinite In Its terms that Instead of $10.000.000 reduction In revenue, aa the Democrats claimed, It might make a reduction of $60.000,000; and that tta effect upon business would be to transfer many flourishing industries to Europe. Mr. Hill expalned that the Inter? national Harvester Machine company, the large sewing machine companies and other great manufacturers would tat aide under the Democratic bill to manufacture parts of their machines ?heaply abroad, and bring them into this country to be assembled by cheap labor here. Mr. mil said that In attempting to make free of duty the bagging used to wrap cotton bates the Democratic bill would let in free the bagging used by the fertiliser trust, the cement mills of the United States Steel com? pany and by other monopolies which would give no corresponding reduc? tions In prices to consumers. <9. W. Underwood, chairman of the ways and means committee, lnterjec t><f that Mr. Hill's whole argument was from the standpoint of the American manufacturer; that the bill's purpoae was 'to reduce prices and coat of living for the Araerlcon people.** Mr. Hill declared that the reduc? tions would in almost every case be taken up by the big corporations that control the market. Mr. Focht (Pa.) said that the tariff debate In the extra session was ling the country $10,000 g minute. fr. Sims (Tenn.) retorted thai the spense to the country would t*J the te whether the house were In ses? sion osr not. Te did not call the extra session," retorted Mr. Focht. "You hai to, * ike your agreement with the White House that you would pasc *h?j ieci proclty bill." "Whose White House Is it?" aska<: Mr. 91ms. You claim that and everything ?Is* In sight." said Mr. Focht., "Who owns the White Hoi.*e?" persisted Mr Sims. "You act as if you did," rejoined Mr. Focht, "and you act as though you r ally had the presidency now. I believe you have discounted Demo? cratic success for 16 years ahead, but yea are entirely mistaken. The op? timism of th?>se Democrats remind sas of the man who lumped off the 12nd story of* the Hinger building In New York. When he got down ab >ut th?> 15th floor he hollered.

J., fol? lowing the lnque3t of the victims of th?e wreck of the Pennsylvania at Martins creek last Saturday. This tlndlng was made In connection with the death of Eleanor Rutherford, the Utlca ?achool teacher, who died from Isaf Injuries in the Easton hospitol. Prosecutor Striker, who assisted Coroner Klnney in his investigation, said he would have liked to have a rn<>re explicit verdict. "The caee is now up to the grand Jury for further Investigation if they Dart to take it," he ealu. "No one being charged with neglect, there Is no one against whom a charge can be made. There was no evidence to show any person charged with th?* ? care of the roadbed had any knowl? edge of a defect, if any there was." Testimony tending to show that ?allast had been taken out of the road? bed in order to straighten the tracks, which were from 6 to 12 inches out af line, and that no one had warned the engineer of th?e special that there was danger ahead was given by Jacob Huff, one of the section men. at the coroner's inquest today. Utesjard Miller, another section hand, admitted that with a couple of buckets of water the fire which fol? lowed the derailment could have been sxtlnguished immediately after the wreck.

Only Envoys Representing Fach Side to be Pres? ent at Confetenoee ? Details of Meeting. El Paso, Texas, May 3.?Shaded from the sun's heat by a cottonwood grove at the foot of the barren hill, over which the insurrecto army not long ago had threatened to make its way into Juarez, Francisco I. Madero, Jr., the revolutionist leader, clasped hands tonight with Judge Francisco Carabajal, official peace envoy of the Mexican overnmcnt, thus begin? ning formal peace negotiations be? tween the warring factions of the He public. As Judge Carabajal's credentials had instructed him to deal with 1 Francisco I. Madero, Jr., as leader of the revolution, the two men met on neutral ground and talked alone for nearly an hour. They arranged the preliminaries of the first confer? ence, which will begin at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. Judge Carabajal first called on Gen. Navarro, the Federal commander of Juarez, accompanied by Senors Bran iff and Obergon, who helped to bring about the negotiations. They pro? ceeded by automobile to the meeting place, where Judge Carabajal and , Senor Obergon alighted. Scnor Bran iff continued over the loose sands be? side the muddy Rio Grande to the Madero camp. A few minutes later Madero "entered the automobile, wearing a felt hat, around which was a gaudy colored band, the revolution? ist insignia. He was followed by a troop of cavalry, which escorted him to the meeting place. Pasquel Orozco and Col. Francisco Veilar rode be3ide him. On the meeting ground, the entire escort dismounted. They fondled their rifles at a respectful distance, while Judge Carabajal and Ma? dero sat in thfe automobile alone, ar? ranging details of the conferences that are to follow. A squad of United States troopers basked in the sunshine across the line near the river, and watched the meet? ing across the river. ? It was aranged that the meetings would be between the envoys, no one else hereafter being allowed within a radius of 100 yards. Even Senors Branlff and Obergon, who are peace advisers to Judge Carabarjal, will be forced to wait outside the reserved distance. Dr. Vasquez Gomez will represent Gen. Madero. At the conclusion of today's meet? ing, which lasted an hour, Gen. Mad? ero declared that he had examined Judge Carabajal's credentials and found them satisfactory in every re? spect. He also said he had exchanged "general impressions" with Judge TarabajaJ, as to the procedure to be followed by the peace commission? ers. The automobil* then carried Gen. Madero to his camp and returned to the meeting ground to convey Judge Carabajal to Juarea. The three days' prolongation of the armistice went into effect at noon to? day. In Includes Ojlnaga.

Los Angelet, May 4.?Twenty-one new indictments .according to reliable authority, were voted late today by the grand jury against the accused dynamite conspirators, James B. and John J. McNamara and Ortie Mc Manigal. Nineteen of the Indictments, it is understood, are against the McNam aras alone, and charge them with murder in connection with the blow? ing up of the Los Angeles Times newspaper plant and the consequent death of 21 men. The other two are said to be against McMenigal as principal and the McNamaras as ac? complices in the Llewellyn Iron I works explosion in which no one was killed. The inquisitors completed their work at dusk and the true bills or? dered will not be filed in court un? til tomorrow morning. The prisoners will be arraigned tomorrow afternoon I and a date then will be set for them to -enter their pleas. McManigal was the principal wit? ness heard by the grand jury today. He was examined for more than two hours. Afterwards the grand jury heard several witnesses besides em? ployes and officials of the Llewellyn ,Iron Works and Paul Stuperich, pro-j privtor of a hotel at Sausalito, Cel., which the wounded dynamiter, known a3 J. B. Brie?, visited before the wrecking of the newspaper plant. Another witness was Douglas Bur- I rows, partner of Howard Baxter in the ownership of the launch, Fas- J time, which, occording to the detec? tives, was used to transport the dyna? mite purchased by the alleged ccn spiratorte, Stuperich and Burrows I went into the jail this morning ac? companied by the district attorney 11 and a stenographer. Mrs. Stuperich I - and her two daughters went with! them. j James McNamara was taken before! the party and it is asserted that Stu- I perich and his wife and Burrows all j identified him as the man they had! known in Oakland and Sausalito. ' Although It had been announced j with apparent finality, that Jud.?e I Borwell would try the alleged dyna- j miters, It was not definitely stated I until tonight that the new indict- j merits would be returned In his de? partment of the superior court. j Even yet some doubt Is expressed that the case will reach the trial stage before Boardwell. Judge Boardwell called the editors of the nt'vspapers and managers of the j press avociattOBJS into a conference. I He said he was auxious that the pris- J oners should have a trial In which there should not be anything savoring of unfairness and asked their coop- j eration. SI MMON'S FOR VARDAMAN.
