DUTY Q LUuDtn

V7ILL OE REDUCED IT IS BELIEVED Senate Votes to Fix the Rate At $1.50 Per Thousand, Dividing . House Reduction From the Law. . COMMITTEE FIGHT IS REGARDED PR03ABLE In Vote Taken Yesterday Party Lines Were Forgotten, Only Ten Democrats Standing by Platform; Washington, D. : C June ,24. There to bound to be a lower rate on htmber aow, tbe senate having voted yesterday afternoon to fix a duty of $1.50 per thousand on rough lumber not .planed or finished. The house rate wen SV ao that . when the conferees coma toan agreement, this basic duty on sawed boards will not be lower than $1, or more than $1.50. All hope of frse lumber has disappeared, If anybody ever bad any, and the Dingley rates cannpt be restored without upsetting: the whole tariff scheme. This Increase over tbe house rate on lumber was made only by a remarkable breaking - up of all party lines In 'the senate.: The test came on an amendment proposed by . Mr. McCumber, who comes from a treeless state, to restore the house rate of $1 a thousand on rough lumber. This was .beaten, by, a decisive vote, of 44 to 84. The committee amendment later was passed. 50 to 28. Eight democrats voted with Mr Aldrich for the $1.50 rate, and fourteen republicans Beveridge, Bristow, Burton, Brown, Burkett, Carter, Clapp, Crawford, Cummins, Curtis, Gamble, La Follette, McCumber and NelsonJoined with ten democrats in voting for the reduction. It will thus be seen that there were more republicans than democrats who voted for the lower rate, in spite of the declarations in the democratic platform. Aldrieh Deal Fixes Rates. There is every evidence that a vote In the senate which proposes to cut down the Dingley rate on lumber only 50 cents per thousand was reached by a hard and fast combination skillfully engineered by ' Mr. Aldrieh himself. All the New England1, New York and Pennsylvania senators voted for .the higher rate in - return for the votes which had been given by other republicans and some democrats to keep up the tariff basis on the New England products of cotton, wool, silk and , Moreover the vote was so heavy

A Romance Culminating in a Wedding Had a Tragic Tinge

Lincoln, Neb., June 24-Aj tinge of tragedy Is woven into the romance of William J. Bryan, Jr.. son of the thrice presidential candidate, and Miss Helen BergerV .which culminated today in their marriage at the summer home of the bride's father, Alexander Berger, a wealthy Milwaukee 1 grain dealer, at Grand Lake, Colorado.' . The scion of the Bryans is only in his twenty-second year. He has Just concluded his second year of schooling at the University of Nebraska, and because of his, youth and lack of experience, numerous friends, , many of them - Intimate :' of the elder - Bryan, could not but marvel at his consent to the assumption by his son ; of the responsibilities attendant upon a -wedded life. ' ' From the relatives of tbe bride, however, have come explanations which have disarmed criticism of tbe two fathers, Mr. ' Bryan and Mr. Berger. - M'iss Berger, ' who is a charming yonug woman in her twentieth year, has been living for : years under the dread shadow of the white plague. An only child of a" wealthy father and whose, mother; had become the victim of consumption when the . girl was scarcely more than a babe, Miss Helen all her life has been frail in health, almost constantly beset by the fear that she might be struck down by the ailment which caused the death of her mother. Solicitude for his daughter induced Mr. Berger to build a summer home on the shores of Grand Lake and it is there that Miss Helen has spent her every summer for the past ten years. Recently physicians have detected against dollar lumber that the senate will be more than, likely to hold out in the conference committee for the increased rate. The result will be a bard fight between the two houses of congress, and the "lumber schedule will be one of the things which may possibly delay the agreement for a long time. The tariff rates on lumber are not as complicated as they appear to be to many outsiders. The basis of the whole schedule is the common rough sawed lumber of pine which has not been planned or finished in any way. Long ago the rate on this was $1 per thousand. Dingley Rates Surprised People. When the' Dingley law was in process of construction a sudden effort was made to protect the lumber which had been languishing under the free trade policy of the democrats. The result was a duty of $2 per thousand, which - was almost . double what the people had been expecting. That was not prohibitory and a good deal of lumber has come into this country. The : imports in the fiscal year of 1907 were valued at $14,623,256. The lumber men naturally took the ground that it was unfair to cut down their protection at all because it amounted to less than 12 per cent, which was extremely small as compared with the enormous rates levied

symptoms of Incipient tuberculosis 4n Miss Berger and the father was informed that it was imperative that his daughter should take up her residence Immediately In Arizona if her life was to be spared. Helen . Berger and William Bryan have been sweethearts - almost - from the day that Mr. Berger came to Lincoln twelve years ago to make It his home. Parental objection has placed no obstructions in the path of their kve match, and both have looked forward with happy expectations to the day when they might , go to the altar and plight their troth as husband and wife. . Both were content to await the time when the young man could complete his education and equip himself for a profession. The decree of the doctors, however, threatened to interpose and Miss Berger alarmed by the danger of a dread disease and distraught by the menace of a separation from the sweetheart of her choice, proposed a hasty marriage. . She has pleaded so successfully that both Mr. Bryan and Mr. Berger were won over to her cause. Following the ceremony at Grand Lake the younger Mr. Bryan and his bride went direct to Tucson, Arizona, where the physicians have encouraged the two families to believe that the young woman may have every hope of her ability to build, up her health and-thus ward off the visitation that caused her mother's death.' At Tucson is located the University of Arizona, at which Institution William J. Bryan, Jr., is to continue the studies that will fit him for a profession, probably the law.

on the products of the New England mills. f After a long, fight in the house it was decided to cut the Dingley rate in two, and the duty on rough boards of $1 per thousand feet was fixed upon. The senate has increased this 50 per cent and made the rate $1.50. This duty on rough lumber carries with it the rates on finished boards. Tbe senate schedules provide that a board which Is finished on one side shall pay $2 "per thousand, on two $2.25, and ' three sides S2.75. and on four sides $3. This Is a reduction of approximately 25 per cent from the Dingley rates and about the" same amount more than the house rates.

OLD CIIUOCII SITE

FOR IESCHOOL Father Mattingly Urges Congregation to Make a Needed Improvement OLD SCHOOL IS OUTGROWN IF CHANGE IS MADE IT IS PROBABLE THAT SCHOOL SITE WILL IN FUTURE BE BOUGHT BY THE Ye Ms Ce Ae ' The question of what to do with the present church building after the completion of the new church, is now uppermost in the minds of St Mary's church. Father Mattingly, pastor of the church, and a large number of the influential members favor construe tion of a new school building on the site of the present church. The school building located on the southwest corner of Seventh and North A streets directly a cross the street from ' the church has filled its purpose and the necessity of a new building is fully realised. Father Mattingly in his sermon last Sunday spoke of the school work for the past year. He commended the pupils and the 'sisters i ncharge, of the excellent showing made. Mattingly'a Views. Father Mattingly spent the last week of the school in the class rooms. He declared in his sermon that this was the first time the unfitness of the present building had been impressed upon him. The noise from the streets makes it hard for the pupils to concentrate their minds on their work. He paid a compliment to the public school of the city saying that they were modern in every respect- and the best in the state. In referring to the necessity of a new building the location of the present church was recommended as the most desirable. The congregation owns sufficient ground to erect a building large enough for its needs and have a small yard around the entire building. It will no doubt be some time before the change is made. The congregation is at the present time meeting the expense of the construction of a new church and parish house. . . Although the congregation has re ceived several offers for the present church' property it will no- doubt retain it and dispose of ,the . present school building site. Directors of the Y. M. Q A. have stated that in a few years an addition would, have to be made to the association buildings and considered this the most likely site procurable. The change In the location of the school will make it possible for the association to secure the site. PREPARE FOB FAIR Big Annual Event at Hagerstown Will Be an Exceptionally Good One.

The Twentieth Annual Wayne county Fair which will be held in Hagerstown July 27 to 90 inclusive is the event which is now the talk of the people of this section. The Fair board has nearly all the preliminary work completed and nothing remains to be done but the distributing of the' premium list throughout the country to the many exhibitors and the arranging and staking off space for the stands, etc., without which no county fair would be. a complete success. v The race track at the Hagerstown fair grounds is today, one of the best in the state and it is expected that some fast time will be made ' The entries that have been received from' race horse owners for the stake races insure good racing, as to the entries for several crack running; events. ' . The premium lists will be off tbe press in a few days and will be distributed at once. t Inquiries are coming in every mail to the management of the fair- from all sections of the country, and the Secretary, T.
