DR CAUCUS DEBATE
Little Prospect That Rates on
Wool Made by Committee
Will Be Altered.
Following a routine session of the
House, the Democrats of that body will
resume this afternoon their caucus on
the tariff bill. Schedule iv, the stumbling
block of the Taft Administration, is the
immediate subject for party debate.
', A test, vote on the woolen schedule
came late yesterJay and there is now
little prospect that the committee rates
on manufactures of wool will be
changed. Congressman Dies pf Texa,
sought to overturn the "Wilson-Underwood
provision for free raw wool and
f the amendment was lost 190 to 42. Those
voting against fre eraw wool were
largely representative of the wool pro
ducing States of Ohio. Indiana, Mis
souri, and West Virginia.
Congressman Underwood, the ma
jority leader, again found it necessary
to make an urgent appeal for the up
holding of the rate which had in ef-
v feet been dictated by the President.
Mr. Underwood explained that in a
, tariff bill of about 4.000 Items, the
President had taken a decided stand
on but two sugar and raw wool. An
overthrow of the Wilson free listing
of the latter product, Mr. Underwood
effectively argued, made It a party
Issue In every Congressional district
in the country because one branch of
the party would thus show Its dis
agreement with the titular head. Mr.
Montague, of Virginia also made a
strong spech defending the Wilson
program.
The caucus then stood behind the
1 President, and. Incidentally, the Ways
, and Means Committee, although the
.majority leader said the committee had
"favored a 15 per cent duty.
The Dies amendment was to put this
duty on rw wool.
J During the heated debate Congressmen
Dies and Alexander challenged the right
vof the President to take an active part
in the framing of a tariff bill. Mr. Dies
declared that the President should veto
legislation which did not please him.
but that he had no rightto dictate
legislation in advance. Mr. Alexander
took substantially similar iews.
House Republicans
To Have Conference
Over Tariff Tonight
The Republicans of the House will
liold their second party "conference" of
the new session tonight, and will con
tinue the laying of plans to combat
the Democratic tariff bill.

upon substitute schedules which may
be offered by Republican members of
the Ways and Means Committee when
the tariff bill Is put on final passr.ge.
At thp conference last week the mi
nority of the Ways and Means Commit
tee were Instructed to report tonight on
the practicability of drafting cotton and
wool schedules to be offered as amend
ments to the Underwood bill. The mi
nority members of the committee were
also directed to frame a provision for
the creation of a tariff board or com
mission, and this provision will be of
fered as an amendment to the Demo
cratic bill.
The conference of Republican to
night will determine whether the minor
ity will offer substitutes for certain rec
tions In the tariff bill or the wiser
course would be to oppose the bill as a
whole, without drafting a Rcpub!Uan
measure which has no chance of pas
sage. It is understood that the Republican
conference tonight will be open to the
press, m accordance with the precedent
set by the minority last week. In order
to bring In all factions the Republicans
call their party council a "conference"
instead of a caucus.
SEW YORK. April 17. After s-lx
years of humiliation and social exile,
Jere Knode Cooke, former pastor of St.
Goerge's Church at Hempstead, L. I.,
and Floretta Whaley, the girl for whom
he deserted his wife and with whom he
has defied the age-old conventions, to
day believed they had a chance for legal
names for their two small boys.
From Hartford, Conn., where the .for
mer pastor's wife has been living for
several years, came a constanble to And
Cooke and his companion In their new
Brooklyn home and serve papers notic
ing him that his wife had at last re
lented and Instituted divorce proceed
ings. When Constable Conroy broke
the news to Cooke, the unfrocked m'n
ister fell on his knees, and, with tears
running down his cheeks, expressed his
thankfulness In prayer.
Conroy told Cooke that Mrs. Cooke
ha(i said her decision 'to get a dlvtuoe
was due to Increasing sympathy for the
position of Cooke's two children. The
constable said Mrs. Cooke bad ex
pressed the hope that Cooke would
marry the Whaley girl.
"Of course we will marry as soon
as possible." declared Cooke. Floretta
Whaley wa? equally Joyful over the
news from Hartford.
