Tint*—The New Law*
Washington, &ov, 18.—When the sen
ate reconvenes on the first Monday
ctf December unless the programme
mapped out by certain senators should
be rearranged there will probably be
a cla£h on the tariff question. Sena
tor Harris states -that he intends to
push the supplemental tatlff bills for
action osso on as possible after con
gress convenes (which probably means
after the holiday recess.) This is in
accord with the statements he made
on 'the floor of the senate at the tinie
these so-called ‘‘pop-gun” tariff bills
were referred to the finance comhiftleo*
The bill relating -to free Iron ore, coal
tmd barbed wire came back from the
finance committee practically ns they
went (there, but the bill placing su
gar on the free list was pigeon-holed
uhd a substitute-was reported placing
a uniform duty of -10 per cent, on all
eugans, thereby doing away with the
differential one-elghtn duty that op
erates to the advantage of the refiner,
and the discriminating one-tenth duty
tjrait operates against the German ex
porter.
Democratic senators, not among
those classed as "conservative,” ex
press doubts as to the desirability of
at tempting to pass any of the tariff
bills now on the senate calendar at
the next session. One. of these sena
tors appreciates the f«sfr thajt there
are eadlng men in his own party who,
nided and abetted by Republicans,* will
use everyeffo rt to prevent the present
sugar schedule from being amended,
and that 4o attempt «t would result
in nothing more than the consumption
of valuable time that would be needed
irt the consideration of measures upon
which political* Cines would not bo
drawn, and upon which the country
Is demanding action by congress.
To make sugar free, In view of the
letter of Secretary Carlisle, and in view
of the small receipts under the new
law so far,, this senator insists Is ut
terly impossible, and to seek n ‘change
In the sugar schedule in any way, he
thought, would be equally unwise, afl
it would open up a new tariff debate
and start; a flood of discussion that
once loosened could.not be checked.

Shaken. _ „ -
Rome, Nov. 18.—Tho earthquake® In
Sicily and southern Italy caused con-
aiuerableda mage to <ine telegraph lines
and details of tne phenomena are com
ing to band slowly. It Is konwu, how
ever, that the province of Kegglu dl
Calabria, suffered ,the severest damage
by the seismic disturbances. Little
damage was done in Reggio, th capi
tal of th province, but there was great
loss of life and much dtu’ni'ge to prop-
•erty elsewhere In the province. Seven
teen communes were Involved In the
disturbances, the centre of which was
Palml, twenty-one miles northwest of
Risgglo and Itagnar, on the Gulf of
Giojla, almost directly opposite Punta

has commenced. Large electric lights
have been erectedt to Illuminate the,
channel until the lighthouse destroyed
by 'the earthquake shall have been re
built.
Renewed shocks were felt today tut a
town eighteen metres west of Messina.
So severe were the movements of the
arth that great seams appeared In the
malls of many houses. The lnbabl-
■lans are mill badly frightened and
remain camped In the open spaces,
fearing to return to their horn®. No
further Shocks have been reported
from other places. '
