Senator Smoot Predkt* Downfall of Democratic Party Rc< ause of Tariff Hill. Washington, May 1*?Democratic leaders In the senate were Indorsed late today In their determination to refer the Underwood tariff hill to the fiance committee for consideration without public hearings. The Pen rose-La toilette amendment directing the public hearings he held was de? feated by a vote of 41 to 36 and the motion of Senator Simmons to refer the bill waa then passed without a roll call. Two Democrats, Senators Ransdell and Thornton of Louisiana, voted for the Republican amendment. Senator Polndexter of Washington, a Progres? sive, voted with the majority. Senator Jones of Washington, a Republican, who previously had determined to vote against public hearings, an? nounced that he had changed his mind because the finance subcommit? tee were giving private hearings to some interests which he thought should be public. The closing day of debate on the 1mu? of hearings was enlivened with discussion of the Democratic platform snd its bearing on froe .sugar. Senate r James of Kentucky, who vigorously defended the stand taken by President Wilson for free sugar, declared that the party had stood for free sugar and campaign.* * on it, and defied the Louisiana senators to find a man whom President Wilson ever had told he wss opposed to free sugar. Senators Smoot, LaFollette and Clark of Wyoming wound up the de? bate on behalf of the public hearing amendment. Senator Smoot predicting that the Democratic party would be Put out of power for another quarter of a century as a result of its tariff btIL "The edict h*? gone forth, ' said Senator Clark. The real vote on this tariff bill will he taken here as in the house, where it waa taken in secret caucus 1 know there are Democrats here who do not believe the bill is Just and righteous altogether, who are willing to bow the head to the de? mand of office and ease the lash of party expediency." Senator 8muot declared that the Democratic hapdbook which he called the Democratic "tariff bible" wan be? ing largely relied upon by the finance committee members and thut much of the information was erropeous, and If followed would be "absolutely runlous." He described how a manufacturer had met an importer coming out of one of the subcommittee rooms and described to him an item on which he thought there had been a mis? take. The importer, Senator Smoot said, replied that there had been no mistake because he wrote it himaelf. Senator Reed asked for the name of the Importer, saying it would he in? teresting to learn whether importers were writing the bill. '1 haven't a doubt of It." sa d Sen? ator Smoot. "Give um public hearings and that can be found out." Senator Smoot declared that Eng? land, Germany, France and every other foreign country wan rejoicing over the Underwood bill. "1 have a collection of articles from all over the world," he added, "showing how every foreign manufacturer m prepar? ing to enter the Aim rl U maiket. It means for every dollar's worth Im? ported Ano n. ,tn labor will bo re aucea. Senator Ui Toilette favored open hearings, he said, because It waa of the greatest Impoitume that the widest publicity he given tariff sub? jects. "I believe all lef 'slutlve business Is pubH wWmmmm," said Mr. La Fol? lette. "I think even the door, of ?he caucus of the two great political par? ties or of all political parties should stand open." (Staatrman Simmons announced that If the senate decided against open hearings the question submitted bj h ro to be asked nuuuitm Hirers WOUld ba sent out to all parties Mho had ? led briefs or appeared before the I>emocrats of the flame ? omm*n> > Answers to the question Would be asked, he said. Senator Newland lesurned his speech after the vote and closed v\lth a warning to the Democratic patty, He said that revision downward had been promised the country, but got free trade. The finance committee will no et neat week to hOOjf BpOOCtaOS from the subcommittee* engaged In considera tlon of various m hedules of the bill and t'halrmun Simmons hopes to r??. port the bill to UM senate hy June I.

AKKI.stf.d BT DEPUTY insi r ancf. commission I K on CHAMS of arson. Arrive DM to "Frame-up" Says Richardson, who Claims That Hfj Is Persecuted for Political Hcasous? l*rcllmlnnr> Today. Aiken. May If.?C*pt J. M. Rich ardson. a candidate for adjutant gen eral three years ago, and until recent- I ly a member of the staff of the gov? ernor, was arrested today on a war? rant charging him with urson. The warrant was sworn out by R. A. Wharton, a deputy from the othce l of F. II. Me Master, State insurance commissioner. j Before daybreak Saturday morn Ing. April 19, a barn and storehouse la-longing to Mrs. J. M. Richardson were destroyed by tire. The buildings destroyed were on the lot on which UM Richardsons resided. In addition to this being the third tire on the Richardson premises within the past ( few years, an atlidavit made by Mar i tha Frazier, a negro woman, alleges that on Thursday, a few days be? fore the tire, she stored with Capt. jKichardson a lot of furniture and household goods; that the morning after* the lire she was told by Capt. Richardson that her goods had been destroyed; that learning that her ef? fects had been removed the day be? fore the tire to Capt. Richardson's farm a few miles in the country, sho located these and under claim and delivery proceedings regained posses? sion of them. Richardson had in? surance in the sum of $600 which he collected without difficulty, Deputy Wharton bus been in Aiken investigating events connected with the fire for the past week or ten d; ys. Capt. Richardson was placed in jail today and stated late this after? noon that the charges against him are only a "frame-up." He attributes his arrest 10 politics and persecution. He states that the furniture which the Frasler woman stored with him had been taken under a mortguge held by R. B. Carter, but that the woman had paid the mortgage and he had endeavored to get her to move her goods, and explained that a part of her goods had been removed to his farm several months ago be? cause ho had no room lor them in town. Until a short while ago Capt. Rich? ardson was commander of the local military company, the Aiken Rifles, which was mustered out of service a few months ago. In the buildings which were burned he had stored u lot of property belonging to the mili? tary company, and when the liremen arrived they were prevented from ! fighting the lire by the explosion of a large number of cartridges which en? dangered their lives. Capt. Richard? son sustained a slight injury by the explosion of one of these cartirdges. A preliminary hearing will be held tomorrow morning at which time Capt. Richardson will apply for bail. an AfflAL AGAINST VIOUBNCB. .Jos. J. I itor Addresses New York Barbers on Strike. New York. May 16.?An appeal I against violence was the notable fea? ture of Joseph J.

Informs! Lawn Parties Glvon Weekly by President Very Popular Social Affairs in CnPttftl?Lack of Osten? tation a Feature. Washington. May IS.?Washington' society is beginning to see and like the simplicity and lack of ostentation p/hlch surrounds the home life of the Wilson family in the White House, j In nothing is this more noticeable: than in the weekly garden parties which are now being given on the) lawn just to the south of the execu? tive mansion. There free America?J It might be said?meets for the hour for you may Und In Mrs. Wilson's' list of invited guests every kind of i free American citizen, high, low, big and litfle, men and women, they arc there. With simplicity as the moat Import J ant element of these weekly gather? ings under the stately oaks that throw their magnificent shade across the big White House garden, spend an hour there and see who you will meet. First and formost you may either 1 ride of walk as you may wish. You may use your auto, call a taxi, travel In a one horse shay, pay your nickel 'and use the car or walk, because it makes not one bit of difference. You wdll meet your friends doing either or all. Some you thought would I motor prefer to walk and some who 'might be thought to walk travel In {the big touring car. So there you are, for the locomotion part. Just travel any way you like. Pass quickly through ihe "hat box"?that abominable place at for? mal winter receptions? nod at the waiting negroes that you Jive neith? er ov? rccat nor hat to deposit, ami you are out under the stately oaks and only at stone's throw from the president and Mrs. Wilson and their military aides. With that cordial and merry smile with which the president meets hi* visitors and the gracious reception you get from Mrs. Wilson, you pass on to mingle with free America for the hour you have been invited. Now there is no formality, go wherever you please, listen to the music of the marine band, watch the sparkling waters from the White House foun? tain, chat a little here and a little there, then make ye ir way over to where refreshments have been pro? vided. This is the routine for those whd have been fortunate enough to receive the coveted bit of paste board which bids them to the White House for the hour. Hut the real feature of the occa? sion?If there is any one feature above anotaer?beyond the president and his charming wife Is the abso? lute lack of conventionality in dress. You may go In your business suit and be entirely welcome. A light suit or a dark one, a Panama hat or any other kind will do just as well. You may wear the conventional stove-pipe kind and the long tailed Prince Al? tert and it will make absolutely no ; difference. You may be certain that anything you may wish to wear will be In taste so far as the men are concerned. You will see workers from the business orllces, the house member with the typical black slouch hat and long tailed coat, the sena? tor, with maybe more dignity but just the same clothes, and the politi? cian, the cabinet member and the newspaper man all there, talking and jabbering away just like the mem? bers of one big family. The men ma: dress just any way they like when they go to these affairs and get there also any way they like. With the ladies it is a little different, al? though it can not be said that the same degree of elaborateness pre? vails as at the formal winter enter? tainments. They are there with the very prettiest of spring creations helping to make time pass pleas? antly. There is perhaps nothing that brings the people into (loser contact in an informal way and which tends to make them realise that the presl deni and the members of his family are just like other people after all than these garden parties. The band plays "America," the people shake hands with each other and their own president ami they are glad that Ihey are Americans, this (are-free happy crowd. It is indeed something Worth seeing and more than that worth thinking about, these lawn parties under the stately oaks. WILL MOP AT Cll A It LKHTON. Washington, May 16. ?
