Washington, June 27. All amend
ments to the agricultural schedule of
the new tariff proposed by the Demo

were approved today by the caucus

The finance committee later may
recommend enlargement of Its pro

tenmlned to complete consideration of

on wheat and flour was first taken up
with the general countervailing duty
amendment to give the- president pow
er to retaliate ugaln all nations for
discrimination against the L'nited
States on any commodity.

committee for a countervailing duty

senators as compensation for their

TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP
Wimbledon, June 27. The first
break in the ranks of the victorious
quartet of American players In the
English lawn tennis championship
tournament occurred this afternoon
when Craig Blddle of Philadelphia
went down before V Ingram, one of
the younc representatives of the Brit
Ish talent The vlctorj was an easy
one, the score being 6-3, 6-2 1-6 6 i
Ingram was a model of steadiness in
placing, while the American's strokes
lacked their usual power
The captain of the Canadian Davis
cup team. R B. Powell, also failed
against Hope Crisp, a student of Cam
bridge unlversltv. the score being ti i.
7 5. 6-3
Oscar Kreutzer. one of the crack
players of the German Davis cuu
team, beat A W. Gore, former Eng
lish champion, three sets to one, the
score being 3-6, 7-", 6-2, 6-0.
Wallace P Johnson of Philadelphia
cjulckly followed his compatriot into
retirement, being beaten by the Eng
lish player R W. Watson. 6-4, 6-2.
6-1. 7-5.
Later in the afternoon R. Nortls
Williams, after playing three sets
against Maurice E McLoughlin of
San Erancisco. retired in favor of his
colleagues on the United States Da

The American champion is thus left
llone of the United States representa
tives to try to fight his way to the
final round McLoughlin won the fir-tl
two sets. C-4. 6-4, while Williams too.';
the third set at 6-3.
It was obvious from the first that
the match between Williams and Me
Loughlin was merely for warming up
purposes and that Williams was go
ing to allow the champion to defend
American interests In the remaining
stages of the tournament.
McLoughlin contented himself with
staying on the back line and practic
ing drives, while Williams provided
rich fare in the way of spectacular
shots to test his compatriot's alertness.

Washington. June 27 Just a small
bat dent in itself, but very disturbing
relf,rtlieioss, is the preliminary ofH-
cial estimate of the affair at Hamet,
Cal . yesterday, Involving the forcible
expulsion from the community of a '
band of Korean fruit pickers. iil
It is expected that the Incident will
he the subject of future representa
Hons to the Japanese ambassador as
soon as he has been advised by tho H
rciing Japanese consul general at San 'M
Francisco of all the facts. Then it will M
be incumbent on Secretary Bryan to U
; ransmlt any complaint to Governor
Johnson with an intimation that tho
president relies on him to see that
justice Is done to aliens within the
United States under the terms of ex-
'sting treaties. H
Beyond that It is scarcelj possible VW
for the national government to go. at VM
this stage at least, though later it 'M
may become necesary to ask congress
j to indemnify the Koreans who have
Buffered any financial loss. tH
Secretary Bryan said today that the m
I st2te department would make an Im- M
1 mediate Investigation for Itself of the HI
1 incident. The only Information thus
lar received was in the press dls
patches. City Officials Worried
Hemet, Cal., June 27 Officials of
Hemet were worried today as to the
i probable outcome of the incident yes
j terdav when a party of Korean apri-
coc pickers from Riverside were drlv
I en out of town by white field la- WM
borers and sympathizers who resent- IJ
ed the competition of the Asiatics. J
Mayor H G. Shaw conferred with at
lorneys who assured him the city M
could not be held responsible for tho
expulsion of the Koreans.
The Asiatics were Imported. It is
said, by fruit growers because they
red to pick fruit at rates from two 'M
lo three cents per box less than white Mm
laborers demanded The fruit grow- :Mm
era asserted also that there was a
pcarcity of w hite workmen. This was
j ri?nled by white laborers. The matter
baa not as yet been officially called M
to the attention of the town authorl-
