Against Bill
Washington, July 25. Republican
senators continued to offer amendments
to nearly every paragraph of the Underwood-Simmons
tsriff bill when ita
reading was resumed yesterday and the
Democrats in solid phalanx voted them
down.
Littfle progress was made, the time be
ing taken up with general debate.
That a reduction in the tariff will
neither reduce the cost of living, curb
the trusts, bring about a fairer distri
bution of wealth nor restore competi
tion, was the argument of Senator
WeeVs of Massachusetts in a speech
packed with statistics which he deliv
ered in the Senate yesterday.
He declared the recent increase in the
cost of living was chiefly duo to the
growing density of population, although
he said the American york'ingman can
buy twice as many necessaries of life
with an hour's wages to-day as he could
a century ago. The British workingman
ean buy less than the American, and the
German less than the Englishman, with
Us wages, the senator asserted. The
effect of a tariff reduction, he predicted,
would be to curtail the running time of
American mills, thereby reducing sharp
ly the income of the workman, who in
turn could buy less. This would in turn
cause prices to fall, and the factories
must again reduce their output.
In this connection, Senator WVeks al
luded to the threatened investigation by
the department of commerce into the
closing of any factories in order to force
wage reductions, and described the man
ufacturers as "between the devil and the
deep sea."
lie suggested that Secretary Redlield
investigate the reported intention of

Gov, Foss of Massachusetts, with whose
business the secretary was fully fa
miliar, to move his plant to Canada.
Senator Works of California, attack
ing the tariff bill, charged that Presi
dent Wilson exceeded liis constitutional
authority by aiding in framing the bill
and "using his powerful influence to
have it passed in the form approved
bv ihim and known to have his approv
al." The senator also assailed the Demo
cratic caucus, which he declared forced
a senator to "forego his own conscien
tious convictions and judgment and vote
with his party or come into disfavor
snd be branded as an apostate ana oe-trfiyc-r
of his party."
"The president." said Senator Works,
"commits himself beyond recall to 'a
bill not yet introduced and without hav
ing heard the presentation of their views
by the legislative representatives of the
states where vital interests and lmpor
taut industries are to be affected by it.
Thus we have a bill agreed upon and
marked for final passage upon consid
eration only by a few men of the party.
This comes in part from the vicious
doctrine that the president is the leader
of his party instead of, or as well as,
the president of the whole people. The
two are utterly inconsistent when it
comes to the making of kws.'
BON-ACCORDS BOOST
THEIR STANDING
By Defeating Green Mountain Club at
Soccer Football, Score Yesterday
Afternoon Being 3 To 1.
Before a mere handful of spectators
on the old Rangers' field late yesterday
afternoon, the redoubtable Ron Accord
club added to its standing In the Ver
mont Football league by defeating the
rejuvenated Green Mountain club by the
score of 3 to 1. The Blippery condition
of the field rendered playing conditions
bad. Having suffered a succession of ill
fated defeats since the institution of
the league the Green Mountain club ar
rayed Sts strongest personnel of the
season, springing a surprise on the Bon
Accord crew. While not having an ad
vantage over the Bon Accord soccer ex
perts, the Green Mountain team revealed
the benefits of consistent practice during
the past week at the south end field.
Notwithstanding the slippery ball, many
thrilling and versatile plays were exe
cuted by both teams.. Watt and Bisette
starred for the losing team. Bisette
shifted his position in the team from
back to half back and his powerful of
fensive and defensive tactics kept the
winning team in r continuous state of
worry. Bisette"s endurance instilled
great confidence in his teamniRtes and
at times Bisette in co-operation with
other backfield men smashed up many
dangerous plays. The playing of Kwen
and Forsythe of the winning club was
conspicuous every minute of the play.
Forsythe, forward, brought the specta
tors to their feet many times with bril
liant streaks of dribbling; on several
occasions he wormed his way through the
entire field only to be stopped by the
powerful backs ot their seniors, (.or
mick's work in the center of the field
enhanced the winning combination.
"Bob' Ewen, an outside man of the
Bon Accords, was the first to pump the
pill through the net. Ewen registered
the first counter with an accurate "pate
shot." Naughton of the Green Moun
tain team equalized the score at the
close of about twenty minutes of play
on a cleverly executed kick that passed
the vigilant Rows, reputed to be one of
the best guardians of the goal in the
Vermont league. Shortly before the first
half was brought to a close Cormick
shot through the defense of the Green
Mountain team and safeav caged the sec
ond goal for the winners. The only
scoring to be accomplished in the final
jieriod was perpetrated by rorsythe, a
new member of. the (Jreen Mountain
combination. He lodged the ball be
hind his opponents' posts just a few
moments after the second period had
been announced. The line-up:

Radical Change of Policy Is
Now Proposed for

DEPARTMENTS
The New President Will Be

head New York, July 2.". Not only a new
head of the New York, New Haven &
Hartford railroad system to succeed
President Mellen, but radical changes in
the financial and operating policy with
a revolution in the1 machinery of execu
tive management, will be recommend
ed by the sub-committee of directors,
which will report to the full board to
day. This was indicated yesterday by a
leading member of the committee, who
said that whoever was selected to suc
ceed Mr. Hellen probably would have a
different title than president that of
chairman of the board, who would be su
preme over the entire system, including
the Boston A. Maine and the steamship
and trolley lines.
This director Intimated that the title
of president of the New York New
Haven & Hartford railroad proper would
he conferred upon another man, who
also is to be recommended at to-day's
meeting. '
This official would lie a subordinate of
the chairman and the heads of the other
divisions of the New Haven system
would occupy similar subordinate posi
tions. Changes in the bylaws of the
road 'ould be necessary, he said, in
order to affect this re-arrangement.
To the new head of the system, who
according to general expectation in Wall
street, will be Howard Elliott, president
of the Northern Pacific, will be given
the task of working out the proposed
change in policy. What these will be
were not specified, but it was intimated
that they might include the divorce
from the New Haven of its control of
trolley line. This would meet one of
the criticisms of the interstate com
merce commission.
No information could be obtained as
to whether the committee favored the
eventual separation from the system of
the Boston A Maine and the. steamship
lines, but the impression was gained
that these questions would be further
considered after the election of the new
head of the system, who will be given
plenty of time, to work out the new
plans.
