CHANEY WANTS TARIFF OFF PAPER
Notice Served on House Committee Bill Must Be Reported Out.
HE WILL MAKE A SPEECH.
Washington, Jan. 13.. Representar tivo Chaney has sewed notice on Chairman Payne of the ways and means committee that unless the committee reports out a bill to remove the tariff from paper and pulp he (Chaney) will take the floor and make a speech excoriating the committee. This threat was the upshort of a conference which Mr. Chaney has had with the ways and means chairman, in which Mr. Payne displayed what the Indiana member considered contemptuous indifference for the rights of the publishers, who are having to
pay outrageous prices for white paper owing to the exactions of the paper trust. Chaney could get no satisfaction from Payne, and it is believed the committee will smother all bills looking to the repeal of this duty.
