Senators Decide On Hides Duty And Watch Rates
A Republican Senate caucus backed the finance committee in placing a duty on hides and maintained the wrapper tobacco rate, while reversing House levels on watches and making watch jewels duty free. Senator Lodge led the anti hides effort, arguing it would hurt leather exports and farmer returns. Western senators urged farmer protection, citing leather industry growth and exports of 20 million dollars. The group favored ad valorem duties over specific rates, with no increase on India tanned goat and sheepskins.

Prisoners Receiver Life Terms In Waltham Robbery Case
Hartigan Hardigan and William O Dwyer were given life sentences plus three days solitary in Middlesex Superior Court after pleading guilty to the April 13 assault and robbery of farmer Charles Teele. Teele testified the men threatened to kill him and nearly did as he described the attack and rope used. The judge called the act murderous and noted Teele’s life only saved by a miracle. Hardigan’s smile and O Dwyer’s collapse reflected the gravity of the verdict.
