NO TARIFF BILL
TO BEJEPORTED
Chairman Payno Says Matter
Not Likely to Cme Before
Short Session.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3—Tho home
committee on ways and means today
decided to continue the tariff hearings
until December 19. •
Chairman Payne wss authorised to
offer a resolution in the house when
congress convenes on Monday, whicn
will give the committee authority to
subpoena witnesses for these supple
mentary hearings. It hss been the
desire of the committee to get «»*rtam
people to come before It and give any
tn/orniition Hluy %rtUy have 'wlilch
would be of valuo in framing a new
tariff law. It has also been found
that tho testimony obtained at the
hearings during tho past weeks hus
not b-’en altogether satisfactory.
Tomorrow la tho last day of the
original schedule of hearings, but on
Saturday Herbert Miles, chairman of
the tariff committee of the National
Association of Manufacturers will tes
tify. Other witnesses also are ex
pected to appear on Saturday and on
Monday there will be a supplemen
tary hearing on the lead schedule. The
other hearings will be held on days
designated by Chairman Payno.
The committee will begin the con
sideration of the now tariff bill as
soon as the record of the hearings held
up to this time has been printed.
Chairman Payne was asked If there
was any likelihood of a tariff bill being
reported by the committee at the short
session o; congress. He replied that
It was not probable.
Mr. Payno would not say whnt
witnesses would be summoned If the
power to subpoena is granted, but It
Is generally understood that J. W.
VanCleave, president of the National
Association of Manufacturers, will bo
one of the most Important.
An Indication of the unsatisfactory
conditions existing at tho present
hearings was given by Mr. Routed,
republican member from Illinois, at
today's hearing on the woo! tariff.
He had received a very unsatisfac
tory reply from the * witness before
the committee at that time.
"I understand that you ure not un
der oath” said Mr. Boutell, "but f
hope that some time soon the commit
tee win have an opportunity to hear
witnesses which It feels at liberty to
cross-examine at pleasure.”
Chairman Payne waa authorized to
continue the hearings at an executive
meeting of the committee held fol
lowing the noon recess. No witnesses
were examined after recess.
CITY AND COUNTY
CANNOT AGREE
Conference Between Representatives
From Both Fall to Bring About an
Agreement, and Commissioners
Must Make Another Propo-
So far the city and county have failed
to come to any agreement as to the con
victs for the coming year.
At tho conference held by County At-
tfrnmr Walter G. Smith and Bupt. K. A.
Wimbleh, representing the county, and
Mayor A. L. MlUer. City Attorney Chao.
H. Hall and Alderman Ellsworth llall.
representing the city, the plan that hus
been fully outlined bv The Telegraph
thoroughly discussed, but without <
In* to any conclusion.
Messrs. Smith and Wlmblsh said they
were authorised to say to the city that
they would secure fifty additional con
victs from the state for the coming year,
these to be turned over to the city and
used to work all the streets within tho
corporate limits, and In addition the
county would nay to the city for the year
the sum of $1,000. This was the propo
sition from tho county.
In favor of this. It was argued that If
the city desired to get these 50 convicts
from the stato Independent of the county,
the city would be compelled to pay Sl6o
K r head for them, but gutting them
rough the county, would not cost the
city anything. The city now pays our
about 55,000 a year for free labor to work
the streets, working only about 25 men.
NNIth this $5,000 saved and the $1,000
given by the county the city would have
an abundance with which to maintain the
gang of fifty convicts In addition to auch
convicts for short terms as may be sent
from the recorder's court. The city would
therefore have fifty convicts Instead of
twenty-five hired men. and would, there
fore. be enabled to do a vast amount
more work on the streets.
The city's representatives argued that
the county was laying too much stress on
the securing of convicts for nothing for
the city. They wanted more money from
the county. They finally made this prop
osition: They would take the fifty con
victs and work only the old part of the
city If the county would nay them $5,000:
or. they would taka 15,500 and work all
of the city within the corporate limits,
which would Include that part recently
than tlio three thousand dollsra and
would therefore report back to a meet
ing of tHe county commissioners to be
held In the latter part of tho month. And
there the matter ended.
There Is some difference In the cost of
maintaining a convict camp. The Bibb
Brick Company has been working them
for a long time, and It la known that tho
convicts fare well at that camp. Tho
cost of keeping them, which includes tho
feeding, clothing and guarding, etc., has
been found to be $4.50 per capita. Bupt.
Wlmbush. who has also considerable ex
perience In the keeping of convicts, says
that the cost to the county Is 57.60 per
canlta nor month.

er It Is best to take
— rom the county to do
nothing hut street work Inside the city
nil the time, or to depend upon the coun
ty doing it at Its pleasure. Under tho
present law. the streets of tho city aro
under the care of the county Just as the
Houston road or any of the country
roads, and according to the rule that has
been In vogue for many years these

irtfeuk
working of the streets at any particular
time or for any length of time. They
mny not work a street In a year, as was
the case r.ot long ago. or they may work
them frequently. It Is argued that should
tho city adopt the proposition of the
county they would* have tho convicts
with them every day In.the year nnd tho
working of the streets Is thus assured.
Nothing can now be done until II
