authorizing the purchase of ten thousand small
arms, six thousand ball cartridges and a large
quantity, of guard cartridges. It was suggested
that this "as really a blind: that the purchase
•would be conducted by Castro's agents In New
York, that cash would be paid for the arms and
.-ammunition and that they would be shipped to
Venezuela instead or to Cuba.
It is admitted by the authorities in the War
I>rpartment that certain parties In New York
have bees persistent In their inquiries regarding
the oid Springfield rifles which have been dis
placed in the American army by more modern
equipment, although the officials declined to re
veal the names of those who had approached
thorn on the subject. The department has
authority under the law to sell the old Spring
fields, which have been superseded by the Krag-
Isiamw guns, together with the ammunition
ior the former, and the- authorities see no rea
h<d why they should not dispose of this obsolete
materia!. although they will take steps to ascer
tain to what use the arms will be put before
• they make any delivery. The quantity of
j-pr:ngn>lds on hand is large, and it would be
lrparded :•« a good stroke of business to dispose
of th'm at a reasonable price.
It is ■ i aloud the War Department has al
ready taken steps to investigate the rumor of a
<"tiMr.- expedition forming in New York, but its
course is guarded with the utmost secrecy.
* A!l!ir>u»rh there is no definite information in this
tity that General Castro ha? taken any steps to
launch *n insurrection baai New York, it is known
thji within the last few weeks there has been an
exf-hange of correspondence between a Venezuelan

DUTY m OIL PRODUCTS
"JOKER IS PAYNE BILL.
Only Petroleum Itself Free—Meas
ure May Be Recalled.
[From The Tribune Bureau.]
Washington. April Those Representatives
-who have been fondly cherishing the belief that
petroleum : : . a a!' at its products were placed on
the free list by the Payne bill, passed yesterday,
were rudely disillusioned this afternoon, when the
measure was distriouted in printed form. 'Crude
and refined petroleum" is specifically placed on the
free Hat. but there i." no mention of its products
in the bill, although it was understood In the
House yesterday that" the amendment adopted by
a vote of 333 to 4$ provided that all products of
petroleum should be non-dutiable. In point of
fact there is a duty of 20 per cent ad •valorem on
the prodcts of petroleum not specifically placed
on th* free til by the bill, and as parafllne and
certain classes of oil grease alon»- appear in this
lisi the 20 per cent duty will be imposed unless
the bill is changed.
Section V of th» bill reads: "That there shall be
levied, collected and paid on the importation of all
raw or unmanufactured articles, not enumerated
or provided for in this act, a duty of 10 per centum
ad valorem, and on all articles manufactured, in
■whole or in part, not provided for in this act. a
duty of 20 per cent ad valorem." The unclassified
products of petroleum come under the latter part
of the. section, and will, in the opinion of many
experts, be dutiable unless the House bill is
amended.
Vnder the leadership of Representatives Noril*
ar.d Murdock, Cms Republicans who worked foi a
reduction of the duty on oil are holding a series of
indignation meetings to-night They have not yet
concluded whether the omission was made pur
posely or was an oversight Of the Ways and Means
C ■::.:-.:!! due to the confusion attending the clos
ing hours of the consideration of the bHI- None
of the "insurgents" cared to express the opinion
that it was a "trick" of the House leaders, but
they all declared their Intention of having the mat
ter explained when the House convenes on Mon
day.
••The only products of petroleum which 1 have
b?«n able to find « numerated in the bill, said
Representative >lurt)i>. k. of Kansas, to-night. "«re
paraffine and certain kinds of oil grease. Lubricat
ing oil, which is used on every railroad train and
In many engines and other mechanical works
throughout the country, is not classified, so that it
nill pay a duty of 20 per cent, and the same is true
of axle grease and numerous other commercial
products which I cannot recall." Treasury Depart
ment officials say that there are at least two bun
dred products of petroleum which would be dutia
ble under the Payne bill.
That it was the intent of the advocates of
free oil in put its products on the free list is clear
from the Congressional Record, which contains
yesterdays proceedings. The Record also brings
out the fact that Representative Vreeland. of New
York, one of those who opposed free oil, so under
stood the contemplated change, for In his remarks
he said: "It was said that the secret of this propo
sition was in the by-products; that that was where
the blow would be struck at the Standard Oil Com
pany. It may interest these gentleimn (the advo
cates of free oil) to know that the Standard Oil
Company refineries In Mexico, within the last
three months, have been fully equipped with every
facility for making a!! of the by-products that
come out of crude oil, and to-day you nave given
them free entry into our markets."
The Ntrris amendment, adopted on Wednesday,
provided that a duty of i per cent be levied on
petroleum and Its products, hut yesterday Mr.,
Payne, on behalf of the committee, caused the
striking out of the amendment, and left the pr
vision reading: "Petroleum, crude or refined." He
was asked sovrai times whether this included the
products, and answered that It did. When told
to-night that there was great uncertainty as to
the actual meaning of the provision, he said the
products of petroleum were Included, for the most
part, in the word 'refined.' and thai the other
products were named In the free list. "Are there
not many products of petroleum not classified in
Mm free list?" lie was asked. "I have not exam
ined it critically as yet," answered Mr. Payne,
"but my opinion is that they are included." Mr.
Dalzeil h<-'d the same view.
Mr. Norrls. on the other hand, snid: "It would
have been easy for the Ways and Means Committee
to have specified the products of petroleum if they
desired to avoid complications and lawsuits when
ever the law is applied, I was under the Impres
sion that ■»< were voting on an amendment which
was unmistakable in this recaxd. However, we
will ring the matter up In the House on Monday
tnd have an explanation."

CENSUS BILL PASSED
WARM DEBATE IS SKS.tTK.
Bailey Amendment, Aimed at Civil
Sen-ice Board. Fails.
I From The Tribune Bureau. !
Washington, April 10.— After more than four
hours' debate, the greater part of which had to do
with the methods of the Civil Service Commission,
the Senate passed, without important change and
by ■ viva voce vote, the bill providing for the
taking of the next decennial census. Under the
leadership of Senator Bailey, several Senators ridi
culed the Civil Service Commission and sought" to
make it appear that a return to the spoils system
would be an improvement over present methods.
Senator Lodge, who has been an unfaltering cham
pion of the merit system in the appointment of
government employes, made the principal. speech in
defence of Civil Service reform and replied to Mr.
Bailey's critical comment on President Tuft. The
Senate defeated Mr. Bailey's motion to permit the
Director of the Census to- appoint employes of his
office upon the recommendation of members of
Congress.
The debate on the Civil Service feature of the bill
was opened by Mr. Bailey. Me defended th» xpoiis
system, ana hed ex-President Rooeeveil aa one who
professed hlmse ( -> Civil Service reformer, hut re
peatedly violated the Civil Service law to put his
friends In offlee, and referred with scorn to tha4
imrt .if Mr Roosevelt's message vetoing the census
!>;'! :n w ;.i.-h the former President mentioned the
"professional politicians" who were seeking jobs for
ters.
Then the Texas Senator discussed 'h» rum
President Taft would veto the een6us bill onICM
formed to the Civil Service Commissioß'a
requirements Mi. Halh-,> made some compli
mentary references to the ability and character
„« President Taft. but said he viewed with alarm
the report that the President was trying t<> cper c
Congress into leg g as he wished by
In reply Senator Lodge said he had learned by
twenty years' experience to hear with patience
arguments like that of the Texas Senator against
Civil Service reform. He admitted the Civil Service
methods had not reached perfection, but said they
ere much better than the old patronage system.
They meant, he said, better clerks and the spend
ing of less government money, and saved Senators
and Representatives from disagreeable duties.
"I have no earthly authority to speak for the
President." Mr. Lodge continued. "But I do not
believe he would threaten to veto 'this bill until.
it was before him. It is not possible, however,
to overlook what he has said and done with regard
to the Civil Service. He established in the Philip
pines a Civil Service that was much more rigid
than we have here."
In a short speech bubbling wUb good nature Sen
ator I i.p, w defended civil Service reform. H« te
to the daya when patronage ruled appoint
ments, and spoke of the "hordes >f efflc <k<i - '
who came to Washington with letters asking tot
