Miss Evelyn Faber. as leading lady,
deserves special mention. The spec
lalties were unusually good, including
Miss Ellenore Carroll. u soubrette of
the cleverest character, and a most
marvellous mimic. She captivated the
audience last night. Charles Chap-
man's illustrated songs were line. and
the acrobatic acts of the Brothers Mild“

a most humorous character. They give

PHILIPPINES TARIFF MEASURES.
Decided on Today by Way: and Means
Committee.
‘ WASHINGTON. December lo-The
Republican members of the Ways and
Means Committee today agreed upon a
Philippine tariff measure. and later the
entire membership of the committee.
Democrats and Republicans. were call-
ed together for the first time. At an
early meeting of the Republican mem-
bers. Colonel Edwards. chief of the in-
sular Division of the War Department.
was further heard as to the. methods
employed in framing the schedule of
rates on imports to the Philippines. in
particular he brought out the fact that
care was taken to consult with the in-
terested industries whenever a delicate
(location of adjustment arose. The
War Department showing brouaht out
the fact that ineffeci the United States
enjoys a preference under the present
Philippine rate. Mr. Russell's propo-
sition to impose 80 per cent. of the
Dinnicy rates. and Mr. Tawney's to
repeal the export tax in the Philippines
was voted down three to five. The Cu-
ban commission. through Chairman
Payne. asked for a hearing. but upon
Mr. Russell's motion they were advised
that no hearing would be given until
after the holidays, the object being to
postpone the matter of Cuban reciproc-
itv until after the holidays.
The committee was formallv orgnnlm
ed and sub-committees appolnted. The
bill agreed upon is desngnated a tem-
porary measure and provides that the
tariff law of the Philippine Commis-
sionshall have full force and effect.
Upon all goods coming from the Phil‘
mines to the United States the present
rates of the Dinuley bill.shall be levied
and collected. The same tonnage taxes
shall be leviedupon vessels coming into
the United States from the Philippines.
as levied upon vessels coming from for—
eign countries out.. January 1. 1905.
with a proviso that the coastwise law:
of the United States shall not apply to
foreign vessels plying between the
United States and the Philippines. All
duties and tonnage taxes collected eith-
er in the Philippines or the .United
Philippine treasury. .
The Democratic members were in-
formed of the program regarding the
bill.‘wblch includes reporting it on Fri-
day. audApaoeing it after one day's dee
bate next Tuesday. under a special rule.
