XBW YORK, July 24.—Capt. Peter C.
Halm, shut up in Sing Sing for eight
year8 for killing William E. Annls, has
just perfected an invention which may
• net many thousand dollars to the state.
Jle has made improvements on hand
wagons and carts used by street clean
ers ihat will save 50 per cent it is said
of the work and cost of cleaning streets.
So highly does the warden regard the
Idea that he has given the captain free
hand and all the men he needs to go
ahead nnd build carts and hand wagons
1 i the absorbing interest Inspired by his
new work the health of the prisoner Is
improving, and he ban lpss lo 'worry
about.
Nothing wa* known of the invention
until Kugcne V L. Young of Long
Island City, counsel of the prisoner,
went to pee him yesterday. The purpose
of the visit was to go over the ques-
tions that will arise In framing the ap-
peal In the case, which will be argued
thiB fall for Capt. Hains and his lawyers
have not by any means given up th
idea that they will obtain a TTS<iV trial
Mr. ^ oung found that the prisoner had
been placed In charge of the draughting
department of the sheet iron works in
which the carta and wagons used in trie
street cleaning of various cities of tho
Ftti e were made. This place was given
to him because he is by far the best
engineer now in the prison. In fact, he
wax an engineer of standing In the army
• years aao. and had invented h qoqi rate
mixer, now known as the. Hains con-
crete mixer, for which he has received
a royalty of about J5.000. So he gladly
turned his attention to the improvement
of the articles turned out by th. sheet
.iron factory.
^ M > studied the smrtll hnn.l wagons
iced by the at rest cleaners nnd the wa-
gons used In hauling off the refuse from
the streets. In a short time he had
made improvements that surprised the
warden. New cart.; were made in the
lliif a of his drswir&s. and they were
fourd to b* a 1 hi claimed fir then;, it
is said. Then the warden, realizing
what had been accomplished, gave him
a free hand ind ail the men he wanted.
Soon these enrts will be turned out and
offered for *sale to those cities which
have bought their street cleaning ap-
paratus from the prison. They will
no only lessen the expense of keeping
streets clean, hut will add greatly to
the efficiency of the old methods.

WASHINGTON. July 24.—The hid
'jue&tion was settled and unsettled to
day and while there seems little doubt
that eventually hides will fall among
the unprotected articles on the tarifl
hill, the contest over their status can-
not be regarded as closed. When the
conferees adjourned for luncheon
eral of them said that It had been de-
cided that hides should go on the
list. Tonight the same conferees
clfired that hides will be free but that
the question has not been decided off I
daily.
None of the questions made proml
nent throughout the country by Pres-
ident Taft'* interest in them has >een
adjusted, although the conferees i
been In strict executive session s
noon yesterday. The adjournment to-
night was until ten o'clock tomorrow.
The conferees expect to spend a large
part of Sunday wrestling with tlicse
problems. The indications are tonight
that the conference rates upon the im-
portant questions still In dispute will
be follows:
Tilde* free.
Oil, free.
Lumber, rough. *1 .""> a thousand feet;
•Willi proportionate differentials.
Coal, 4." cents a ton; without the house
reciprocal clause.
Iron ore, 15 cents a ton. .
Print paper, $3.73 a ton.
Practically one full week his been
occupied by the conferees in an effort to
sett!e these questions.
Most of the time has been devoted to
hides. Thin subject was complicated
bv reaso nof statements coming from
boot and shoe interests thatthey were
ready *o agree to substantial reductions
in the duties on leather goods if hides
were rut on tbe free list. These in-
terests apparently felt sure that there
could be no reduction on boots an<t
shoe* below 15 per cent ad valorem,
the bouse rate, which 1b lower than the
senate rate, or existing law.
President Taft statedto a number of
callers that he would insist upon a re-
duction to at least ten per cent nd va-
lorem# with proportions te decreases In
the rates on other leather goods This
further complicated tho situation.
eRports reached the conference reom
lac today that Sneaker Cannon and
Parliamentarian Rind* h.id decided it
would be Imposslhle for the conferees
to udopt a rate on hoots or shoes
w'thln the rate adopted by either bra
of congress.
