SHOWS INFLUENCE . OF BUSINESS Mill
Agitation for Tariff Commission Is a Positive Proof of Their Powers. ARE TIRED OF UNREST Their Original Plan Considered Humorous by Politicians, but Not Now. BY RODERICK CLIFFORD. Washington, Jan 14. What American business men can accomplish in legislative matters is being effectively demonstrated in the campaign, now being waged before Congress to secure a tariff commission which snail handle scientifically the big problem of tariff making. A year and a half igo business men of the country tired with tho business unrest tariff revisions cause, settled upon a tariff board or commission idea, as a solution of their problem. Their original plea was considered humorous by the politicians and certain members of the Senate and House claimed that this plan was an attempt to take from conress its' constitutional right to impose taxes and levy revenues. Make New Resolve This has come, or Is about to come, to pass, because American business men decided that It was time for them to give a little less of their energies to .their own particular affairs, and derote some of their time to showing the country at large, and congress in particular, how the problem that has been turning political parties upside down and affecting business stability, ihould be dealt with. This Idea was the genlsls of the National Tariff Commission association, in organization formed in Indianapolis, In February, 1909, by representa tives of some of the strongest and. most Important commercial bodies of the country, for the sole purpose of securing the enactment of legislation providing a permanent board to collect facts, figures and necessary data that should enable the president and rongress to raise or lower duties intelligently. The gathering at Indianapolis included such leaders In commercial life is D. M. Perry, of Indianapolis, Alba D. Johnson, of Philadelphia. George W. Sheldon, of Chicago; Henry R. Towne, president . of the Merchant's issoctation of New York; John Chandler Cobb, vice president of the Boston Chamber of Commerce; Henry T. Willis, economist and writer on foreign trade affairs; John Kirby, jr., of Day ton, Ohio; Professor E. V. Robinson, tf the Unlverlslty of Minnesota; H. E. Miles, of Race, Wisconsin; J. J. Culberso, of Paris, Texas, and Charles M. Jarvls, of New Britain, Connecticut. All these men are directors in the issoctation, and have been conspicuously active In the campaign which has caused a complete reversal of public opinion regarding tho usefulness of a tariff commisslou. Their campaign has brought not only the business Interests, but also the leaders it the Capitol, to a realization of the oecessity for having such a permanent body. Success Is Certain. It Is such men as these who have been successfully backing the president In his fight for the passage of the bill creating the commission, and It baa been their vigorous support In the faco of the covert, yet deep seated opposition of the politicians that has brought the campaign up to a point where there seems little doubt of Its success. During " the Christmas holidays, President Taft broke his Intention to rest only when he took up the tariff commission proposition. There have been daily conferences on the subject at the White House for the past two months. .A tariff commission Is the main plank in President Taft's legislative program. He has made it known to members of the senate and house that If all the other measures he dell res enacted Into law fail at this session there must be no failure in the creation of a permanent tariff board. This Is the present Taft hobby, and it will remain so until a permanent tariff board Is working. The temporary tariff commission, secured as a compromise In the Payne 1 RESTORATIVE J TREATMENT FOR NERVOUS MEN t rVttnlnir from a Mource of mqueatlonnt authority on tho nilturn t of men it la prmuni-1 to hf Infallible, while the profeaIon generally entlorne the Inirredlrnta and preat-rlbe them in many different forma of varloua (tlaeaaea.

tariff law, is working steadily. Its investigation into the woolen schedule, which may claim to be a revision upward, instead of downward, a3 the Republicans pledged in the platform upon which President Taft was elected, will soon be completed. Its recommendations will be sent to congress by President Taft, who will urge that the scientific recommendations of the temporary board will bo enacted Into law. "Nick" Gets Honor. To Representative Nicholas Ixmgworth, of Ohio, Colonel Roosevelt's son-in-law, will belong the honor of fathering the new permanent tariff board legislation. Representative Longworth framed a measure tbat has been stamped with Mr. Taft's approval. This measure also meets the views of the senate and house loaders, and Is the bill upon which the business men, behind the movement, have united. President Taft has had excellent outside support in his fight to make congress enact a tariff board law. The National Tariff Commission association held a big convention here on January 11 and li. Tariff was the only issue, and its scientific treatment by experts through a commission was endorsed by every speaker, and every endorsement applauded to the echo. The fight that President Taft is leading for the permanent commission prompted the convention. Tou have got to clean and purify the stomach now or you'll easily catch the diseases around.

A t Local Theaters Madame Sherry. There is no name better known to the world of musical comedy than that of George W. Lederer, whose newest production, "Madame Sherry," has scored the biggest kind of a success, and will be Been at the Gennett theater on Tuesday night, January 24. When but 27 years old Lederer assumed the management of the New York Casino, then the home of musical entcratinnient in America, and decided to Introduce some novelties along that line. He started off with "The Belle of New York," a production which set a new standard for musical pieces in America and which, wih Edna May In the role of the Salvation Army lass, took London by storm. It was Lederer who first conceived the idea of "playing up" the chorus that is making a group of handsome girls one of the principal features of the performance. It was he who created the "Show Girl," the "Broiler" and the first American manager to make use of a "Pony Ballet." Among the many successful productions made by G. W. Lederer during his regime at the Casino were "The Casino Girl," which also went to London, "The Passing Show," and "The Whirl of the Town' the first revues produced in Am erica -"In Gay New York." "The Rounders." "The Telephone Girl," "The Wild Rose," "La Belle Helene," "Yankee Doodle Dandy," and a host of others. It was he who first brought forward such people as Edna May, Maybelle Oilman. Virginia Earle, Pau la Edwards. David Warfleld. Louis Mann, Dan Daly and a score of other player folk whom he elevated to prominence in the famous Lederer productions. ' About eight years ago. at the height of his success, this young producer who had revolutionized a popular form of amusement in America felt the need of a rest, and retired to the com parative quietness of directing the Colonial theater In Chicago. But a year ago the producing fever again broke out in his veins, and in part nershlp with Harry H. Frazee and A H. Woods, brought out "Madame Sher;ry." Lederer personally staged the piece, and the phenomenal triumph scored by the musical comedy gave evidence that he had lost none of his former cunning. "Madame Sherry' has been the biggest musical hit New York or Chicago has known in years, and during the coming week local play goers will doubtless be thankful to Lederer for once more entering the theatrical ring and "coming back." "Peck's Bad Boy." "Peck's Bad Boy" has always been the strongest magnet to attract the juvenile class to its matinees; and no doubt this reputation will be fully sustained at the Gennett on Wednesday, January 25 when this famous comedy will be seen. The play this season is said to be better than ever funny siuatlons. bright dialogues, attractive musical numbers, artistically blended, making it the greatest of matinee attractions for children and equally entertaining for the older class. MacLean Stock Company. During the engagement of the MacLean Stock company at the Gennett. which begins Monday, January 16, such plays as "The Girl We Love," a
stirring western military drama, abounding with action and with a pretty love story running throughout; "North Carolina Folks," a beautiful heart story of the Carolina hills; "Out of the Fold," a little story of love and devotion; "The Better Way." which deals with the reformation of a young girl, who has been brought up in a life of crime; "Michael Strogoff," a Russian military play; and last but not least "Rowdy Nan," a play dealing with the life, trials and temptation of "Nan," a young street singer of New York will be presented. "Rowdy Nan" was written especially for Miss Bryant, and gives her the chance to show her ability in every line and action. This play has been the hit of the entire repertoire of plays produced by this company and without a doubt will live up to its reputation in this city. "Rowdy Nan" is staged with all the care and attention to details that has made the MacLean Stock company famous. During the engagement here matinees, will be given Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday at 10 cents. Night prices will be 10. 20 and 30. Ladies will be ad
mitted free on Monday and Tuesday nights if accompanied by a 30 cent paid ticket and reserved before six o'clock the day of the show. Coming Attractions. One of the most important local dramatic announcements of .the season is that Charles Frohman will present Kyrle Bellew in his famous suc cess "Raffles" at the Gennett theater Thursday, February 2. Mr. Bellew, who is recognized by many critics as the most finished actor on the English speaking stage and who is one of the greatest romantic actors, has played the role nearly 2,000 times both in America and Great Britain. He has been persuaded to return to the part of the gentleman burglar after six years, owing to a flood of appeals from every section of the country that he make a farewell tour in it. The play Is noteworthy as having had the longest run attained by any dramatic production in the last ten years not excepting "The Thief." in which Mr. Bellew scored his last great success. At the Murray. Mile. Bernice and her eight polar bears will be at the New Murray theater this week. It is said it is a rare treat to see bears perform, since the "Street Master" and his dancing bear is now but a memory of the childhood days of some of us. A circus might offer such an act but generally it is unsatisfactory, for some one grumbles at being too far away to see all of Brunin's indolent movements. Not so however, with the bears of Mile. Bernlce's troupe. They are confined within the four iron gratings of a knock-down cage and respond to the crack of their owner's whip, and to the discharge of a "38" Colt, as readily as if they found it as easily as slid ing along the icy banks of their na tive streams. Mile. Bernice deserves endless credit for the patience she must have endured in rounding the bears into shape for exhibitions on the vaudeville stage, and the perform' ance of her animals is well worth the trouble. "The Genius" Coming. Henry Woodruff in "The Genius tho latest production under the direc tion of Mort H. Singer will soon be seen at the Gennett theater. Mr. Woodruff is a great favorite in Rich mond as his performance in "The Prince of Tonight" was one of the de lightful musical comedies of last sea son. Collapse of many rubber companies in which Chinese capitalists speculat ed has interfered with business in China. CHILDREN'S FACES Ran Over Bodies, Too.

Some Gossip Gathered From The Gay American Metropolis
(Palladium Special) New York. Jan. 14. Brooklyn no doubt, forms part of Greater New York, but in some respects it has preserved its own peculiar individuality to a remarkable degree. It is composed of distinct colonies which have thier own traditions, customs and way of doing things entirely different from the methods, traditions and notions of the other colonies or settlements. There is a settlement in the southern part of Brooklyn the inhabitants of which for man years have observed the custom of starting the New Year with a dip in the chilly surf at Coney Island. This year the weather was comparatively mild, just a few degrees below the freezing point, and as a re sult more than fifty men and women, old and young started for Coney Is land In the morning and disported themselves upon the sandy beach for about half an hour before the took their traditional five minute dip in the ocean. They were either all good actors or they really enjoyed the sensation. It does not often fall to the lot of any mortal to win a scholarship in a college by being born. Yet, this is the very thing that happened to a boy of poor Jewish parents in this city. who was born in the Jewish Maternity hospital the other night. On the laBt day of the past year there were six women in the hospital awaiting their confinement. In every case it seem ed only the question of a few hours and there was considerable doubt and speculation among the matrons and nurses as to who would win the race. The superintendent of the hospital and the members of the ladies' auxiliary of the institute became so interested in the matter that they decided to offer a scholarship in any college in the city of New York to the boy or girl who should be born in the hospi tal upon the stroke of the' midnight bell announcing the close of 1910 and the beginning of the new year. The fortunate youngster who made his appearance in thia world with remarkable promptness, just as the midnight bells began to ring out the old and ring in the new, will be named Josephus. Students of psychology have repetedly called attention to the danger

Even the actual admission in several Instance! by the perpetrators of crimes, that they were prompted to the unlawful acts by the suggestion offered by moving picture displays depicting crime of a similar nature, did not convince the public in general that such exhibi tions are dangerous to the public welfare and should be suppressed.
