IT IS A VERY BRIEF ONE Thinks the Tariff Should Go Before for Everything Else.

HOUSE GREETS IT WILDLY Washington, March 16. The president sent his tariff message to congress today. In the house it was greeted with shouts of applause and was referred to the committee on ways and means. Washington, D. March 16.

Taft's message to congress follows: lo tne Senate and House: "I have convened congress in this extra session in order to enable it to give immediate consideration to the revision of the Dingley tariff act. The conditions affecting the production, manufacture and business generally have so changed in the last twelve years as to require the re-adjustment and revision of the import duties imposed by that act. More than this, the present tariff act. with other sources of government revenue, does not furnish income enough to pay the authorized expenditures. Bv Julv 1 next, the excess of expenses over the receipts for the current fiscal year will equal $100,000,000.

"The successful party the latel election is pledged to a revision of the tariff. The country and business communitv especially, exnect it. A prospect of a change in the rates of import duties, always causes a sus- pension or halt in business because uncertainty as to the conditions for a few hours.

MANY ARE ATTENDING TALKS Dr. Black Spoke for the First Time Yesterday Afternoon. HE IS A WONDERFUL SPEAKER Yesterday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock Room 15, in Fraser hall, Dr. Frank Ji. banders, president of Washburn college, opened the fourth annual Bible institute at the University when he spoke on "The Crystallization of Gospel Tradition The Gospel of Mark." The story of Jesus told with keen sense of its orderly develop ment and dramatic character.

Dr. Sanders is a speaker of much ability and displays a wonderful insight in his subject. Dr. Sanders has spoken here before and has won many friends. Although Dr.

Sanders' talk held the interest of his hearers, it was about tne next speaker that the greatest interest was displayed, for he was Dr. Hugh Black, one of the most eminent divines of the world today. Dr. lack is formerly from Edinburgh, Scotland, and is now professor of practical theology in the Union Theo- ogical seminary. His reputation is a world wide one and everywhere he goes he has been greatly honored.

Dr. Black is not only a preacher but he an author and is indeed eloquent. Yesterday afternoon he spoke on 'The Reconstruction of Theology," and the way in which it must be done. Dr. Black gave many practical sug gestions and made his points forcible every time.

That he has a right to the reputation of being one of the greatest theological students of the day was made clear by his opening address yesterday. It is expected during Prof. Black's stay here that there will be a large number of social events. Last evening a number of people met him informally at the Eldridge. This even ing the Y.

W. C. A. girls will enter tain him at dinner followed by an informal reception. Tomorrow night will be entertained by the members the University Y.

M. C. A. Friday and Saturday in connection with the Bible -Institute the sixth annual of Kansas High schools and Academies will be held. To this conference high school instructors from over the state will come and the University students who wish to be come students attend these conferences and learn much of interest.

The first session of this conference will be held Friday morning at 10 o' clock when Prof. Black will address the students and instructors at a joint session. The remainder of tie morning the regular work of the conference will be taken up. Dr. Strong will make the address of welcome and Hon.

E. T. Fairchild, state superin tendent of education will talk on the subject of "School Administration." Inday afternoon and Saturday morning the sessions will be given ov to the reading of papers and discussions of all the various questions pertinent to the conference. Prof. C.

G. Dunlap will have charge of the work on English and Prof. E. M. Hopkins will also speak for this part of the work.

Prof. W. H. Carruth will preside at the meeting of the German section and will give among other things an illustrated lecture on "The Tell Country." Prof. Hoad will pre side over the conference on "Ameri can History and Civics" and Miss GaUoo will conduct that on Romance languages.

There will be many other interest mg teatures in connection with the conference and it will bring to town many visitors from all over the state. Following is tha nrosram for th re mainder of the Rihle Tristitnte whirh Johnson County Farmers Prevented From Planning Good Highways. Kansas City, March 16. Recent rains and melting snow have left the roads along the proposed route of the Kosedale-Lawrence pike in such bad condition that the farmers along the line say they cannot get together to consider plans of work for the road under the Hodges rock roads law re cently passed by the Kansas legiskv ture. "Mud! You never saw anything like it," said Woodson McCoy, a Monticello farmer, last night.

"We want to get up a committee here in Monticello township to get the far mers together to talk over the new law. And when everybody thoroughly understands it, we want to get down to work for the road. But nobody's going out of tne nouse now when it can be helped. The mud will ruin a buggy and there are sticky places around here where a wheel is liable to be wrenched off at any time. And that isn't saying anything about how hard it is upon horses that have to drag wagons and the like through all this mess.

We are practically ma rooned. When the roads become passable so we can, we will get together. There never was a better time to agitate for good "We can stand in the public highway in mud above our ankles and do it. It is my idea to get copies of the new Hodges law printed and circulated among the farmers of the vicinity. That, too, will have to wau a wniie on tne mud." AD(i iarmers in tne neignbornood of DeSoto and Shawnee made the same complaint.

Mud, mud, mud, they said, was blocking them even in their atempts to rid themselves of it. The Rosedale-Lawrence pike was proposed two years ago by Dr. S. B. Bell of Rosedale.

LAMING RETURNED YESTERDAY Today in Kansas City an important conference is taking place between W. Laming of this city and W. R. Sullivan and Albert Emmanuel of Dayton, Ohio. The conference is for the purpose of seeing if the two companies cannot reach some agreement in connection with the local electric line system, so that something definite may be done in this city.

This evening it is expected that the men will come to Lawrence although Mr. Laming did not know last night if he would come back to Lawrence tonight or not. It is expected that the conference will finally solve the local electric line situation which has been hanging fire for so many months. The Dayton men declare that they are anxious to reach an agreement and Mr. Laming says that he is likewise willing.

When seen by a Journal reporter last evening Mr. Laming who has been in New York city for so many weeks past on business with his road said that he did not have anything new to give out. lie stated that he did not know exactly when work on the interurban would fas begun as other matters would have to be concluded before that could take place. The Belgians with whom Mr. Laming has been and who are said to be interested in the active financing of the road, did not return to the continent as quickly as they expected, but left last Thursday.

They have been holding business conferences in New York and have made a thorough investigation of the electric line situation in various places in the east. Although there is no council meeting set until April 5, there is little doubt but that if some conclusion is reached today in Kansas City a meeting will be called and the franchise business taken up. A NEW MAYOR. The Recall Promises Great Things for California Town. Los Angeles, March 16.

W. D. Stephens, former president of the chamber of commerce of this city and a member of a firm of groeers was yesterday elected mayor of Los Angeles by the city council. Since Thursday night when Mayor A. C.

Harper resigned under threats of exposure of alleged misconduct, the city has been without a mayor. The oath of office was administered to Mr. Stephens ten minutes after his selection and by 11 o'clock he was seated in the mayor's chair. The appointment of Mr. Stephens was for the unexpired term of for mer Mayor Harper, which, according to the advice of City Attorney He witt, ends March 26, when the recall election will be held.

In an opinion given to the council, the city attor he citv attor-1 ney held that the recall election must be held and that any man the council min-ht annoint would hold until anoth-t er mavor was elected. Mr. Stephens had scarcely been mentioned as a probable appointee and his selection occasioned ereat sur- prise. I STRIKE IN PARIS. A Oeneral Strike Has Been Declared There.

ser was seriously injured while mak- ing a fast run from Scott City to Gar den City and is still in a serious con dition. Dr. C. J. Cahill of Rozel had been visiting his father-in-law at Scott He received a message from home telling him of the serious illness of his child.

He telephoned here for a machine and driver. Siler answered the call, leaving here about midnight. He started back with Dr. Cahill in the hope of. catching number 6, the east bound passenger.

In making a turn in the road the car struck an obstruction in such a way that it was thrown fifteen feet and completely capsized. Both the passenger and chauffeur were caught under the car, but Dr. Cahill managed to extricate himself. He then lifted a corner of the car and dragged out Siler, who was unconscious from a blow he re ceived in the accident. The nearest house was that of Mr.

Lindsay, two miles away, and the doc tor managed to get the injured man there after a great deal of trouble. He worked with him for some, time, restoring him to consciousness and treating his wounds. Mr. Siler suffered no broken bones but it is feared that he has some internal injury as he has been bleeding internally ever since the accident. COMMITTEE WAS APPOINTED.

All the people in town are very much interested in the plan and are willing to do all they can to make the boulevard a reality. GEORGE ANGELL IS DEAD.

President Lansdon, of K. and Seeretarv Quigley, of St Marys, presided over me Eleven schools of the state were represented. The schools and their delegates were: Baker. Yoxall; Southwestern, of Winfield, Slumps; iairmount, Whitaker; rnends. Wheeler: Lund: Manhattan, Cortelyou; Western Kansas Normal, Bird Emporia Normal, Holtz, Ellsworth; St.

Marys, Quigley; K. Lansdon; College of Emporia, ocnanner. W. C. Lansdon, representing the University, moved to amend the con stitution so as to allow professional men to play in the school teams if the professional would first obtain one year's credit from the school with which he was to play.

This movement was discussed from all standpoints, and when put to a vote was lost. One of the prime influences that led to the forming of the association was to obtain purity in athletics, and tne semi-proiessional idea was de feated because it seemed against the spirit of the organization. A commit tee was appointed to arrange a state schedule for the athletic events of all schools in the association. Heretofore, each school has arranged its schedule to suit its own interests. The new plan of having a committee arrange the schedules for all the schools is one that will mean much to the schools in the economy of time and expenses.

Each school will have the chance to play as many matches as it has been, accustomed to playing, only the dates will be so arranged as to avoid conflicts and the trips taken by the various teams will be in such se quence as will save them much railroad fare. This committee will also fix upon a method to determine which school holds the state championship at the end of each season. Another committee was appointed to draw up rules to be adapted to the state high schools. It is the purpose of the committee to make a working plan for the high schools similar to the one to be used by the- schools of the state association. The association will meet here again in May, when the state track meet will be held on Normal Field.

A salary of $25 a year was fixed upon tor tne secretary of the association. The following officers were elected for the coming year; President, D. A. Ellsworth; secretary and treasurer, P. B.

Samson, of the Normal; execu tive committee, D. C. Schaffner, of the college, and Cortelyou, of Man hattan. Tor 3-Cent Fares. Chicago, March 16.

Poor Crops the Cause. March 16. Poor crops in strawberry and peach regions of Arkansas and Missouri figured in the evidence given today in the hearing of the Ozark Fruit Growers' association against the railroads entering that section.
