The president-elect had a Ion* talk
with Oscar Underwood, leader of the
house, discussing principally plans for
tariff revision, but nothin* definite
came from either man after the confer-
ence to Indicate what particular sched
ules would be taken up.
Governor Wilson said he merely had
asked and obtained from Mr. Under-
wood what he sought from William J.
Bryan and Speaker Clark, with whom
he previously had conferred—his views
about the personnel of the administra-
tion and legislative policies, No con-
clusions on these questions, however,
were reached, according to the presi-
dent-elect.
Process of Consultation.
“Wr. Underwood and I," said Oov-
nor Wilson, “went through the process
of consultation that I adopted with the
other men who have been to see me. I
asked his advice as to men and meas-
ures. We spent moBt of the time—that
Is, the latter-part-of-fhb time—outlin-
ing and discussing the prOs and cons
of the program from the extra session.
We didn’t come.to any conclusions; wc
just canvassed matters."
Mr. Wilson was asked If a date was
decided upon for the extra session.
“We took that up only casually," was
the reply. “Mr. Underwood thought as
we all think, that the earlier It is call-
ed the better.”
After Inauguration.
Tho governor said that while he soon

not make the announcement until after
he ha# been inaugurated. S
Mr. Wilson added that In hla confer-
ence he had talked over the advisability
of a large program for the extra ses-
sion and that Mr. Underwood had ex-
pressed his Ideas on the subject.
”Ae usual no conclusions were reach-
ed" said the governor with a smile In-
timating that there was no particular
necessity for an early decision qf this
question.

After the conference. Mr. Underwood
was asked whether there would be any
factional troubles in the house and
whether. In view of Mr. Bryan s opposi-
tion to him early last year, any dissen-
sion was expected.
•There won’t be any trouble." be
said. "You remember the woolen sched-
ule when there was only one vote
against me—well that showed perhaps
most of the present factional dlffer-

ences there are. The
h leaders of the Democratic party, be th^rtend^of
Mr. Underwood said he expected the
tariff to be "thoroughly considered
from top to bottom."
"Every schedule will be taken sep-
arately," he added. “Then we can put
in an enacting clause at the top of
each schedule and put that through
separately or we can put the whole
thing through In the form of one bill
That would be jt matter of choice, how-
ever." .
The president-elect will soon begin
more conferences with senate leaders.

Has Local Significance.
Effective yesterday Is the increase or
five per cent in all customs duties
Into Mexico, following orders receiv-
ed a short time ago from Ernesto
Madero, a member of the president
Madtfo’s cabinet. The new ruling
will be strongly felt at the Port of
Juare*. The order is general through-
out the republic. The original plan
of placing a fifteen per cent increase
on all imports into Mexico, begin-
ning the first of the year, has been
considerably modified, because of the
protest which was feared would come
from the people of the Mexican na-
tion. If the original Increase were
put Into effect. It would mean a to-
tal Increase of twenty per cent In cus-
toms duties placed by the government
during the hurt few months, as only a
few months ago, on account of the
cost of war, an Increase of five Per
was levied. The present Increase
makes the total raise to be ten per
cent.
Get Grain Across.
Yesterday a steady file of carts went
over the Santa Ke bridge bound for
Mexico bearing corn and other
grains which today will no longer oe
on the free list Into the country.
Since the war began, the government
has had the grains and necessities on
the free list, Krom now on duty will
be levied on the free list. From now
on duty will be levied on these com-
modities.

When a man Is In a theater ox for
the first time he feels more conspicu-
ous than the show.
Washington, Jan. 1—The United
States government gladly will waive
all impediments to General Clprlano
Castro leaving America quickly for
Europe In any manner he pleases,
according to Secretary Nagel of the
department of commerce and labor,
who personally will decide the,case
of the Venesuelan.
“I have given General Castro per-
mission to be Interviewed and per-
mission to have hla photograph tak-
en and I will certainly do naythlng
In my power to facilitate his depart-
ure by any steamer.” said the sec-
retary.
Castro's decision to return to Eu-
rope at once has solved, In the
judgment of officials here, the per-
plexing problem as to what to do
with him. Secretary Nagel has be
fore him a pile of papers reciting
the spectacular career of this once
powerful South American who has
been attempting to find a home on
the western hemisphere. The Infor-
mation gathered by the state depart-
ment, was for consideration In case
Castro persisted in his efforts to en-
t*f.
Man of Destiny,
Clprlano Castro, the self-styled
"man of destiny” voluntarily left
Venezuela in 1908 and since has been
an exile In Europe.
He attempted to return to the
West Indies In 1909, blit the Euro-
pean powers decided his presence
was a menace to peace in South
America, and forced him to. return
to Europe.
After a series of complications and
much diplomatic trouble, with Eng-
land, France, Holland and the
United States, Castro sailed from
Venezuela In November, 1908, saying
he was going to Berlin for medical
treatment. He left Vice President
Gomez as acting president. One
month later there was an uprising
in Caracas and Gome* declared him-
self president.
May Be Autonomous
Castro protested from Berlin but
took no active steps until March,
1909 when he sailed from France
bound for Trinadad. The British
government told him he would not
be allowed to land In Trinidad, so he
disembarked at Martinique. France
promptly decided to expel him from
this Island, and the local authorities
one day broke Into his room, In
spite of his angry protests that he
was a sick man and carried him on
board a steamer for France.
Since this experience, Castro has
been living in Spain and other parts
of Europe in seclusion. A few weeks
ago be appeared in Paris, and ten
days ago sailed for New York.

OWN MONEY TO “FEED”
STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S
DEPARTMENT ISSUES THE
ORDER
Jurors, hereafter, must use theli
own "feed" money when summoned
to sit In a civil or criminal case In
either of the courts of El Paso, ac-
cording to the ultimatum Issued by
District Clerk J. A. Escajeda yester-
day following the receipt ol a letter
from the attorney general’s depart-
ment £t Austin ifelatlve to the ques-
tion. The letter, which explains ev-
erything ‘n full, follows:
Attorney General’s Department, State
of Texas, Austin.
December 28, 19)2.
Mr. J. A. Escajeda,
Clerk District Court,
El Paso, Texas.
Dear Sir:
We are in receipt of your letter of
December 21»t, enclosing an opinion
from Hon. A. M- Walthall, District
Judge, on the question of who is lia-
ble for feeding jurors in civil cases
and how is the expense thereof to be
paid. At the suggestion of Judge Wil-
tnall you submit this question for the
opinion of this department.
Without a re-examination of the
different statutes cited in the opinion
of Judge Walthall and assuming that
same constitutes all of the statute law
on the subject, I am of the opinion
that the law not making the county
liable for the expenses of food and
lodging for Jurors In civil case*, that
no such Jlablllty of the county can be
implied. The law also not providing
that the expense of board and lodg-
ing of jurors in such cases may be
deducted from the scrip due them for
Jury service, I am of the opinion that
the clerk has no authority to make
such deduction- From this view, It
results that the responsibility Is on
each individual juror to provide his
board and lodging while held as a
Juror together in a civil case.
I take it that the sheriff wii! not be
liable for this expense and neither
will the county. Arrangements
through the sheriff a* their messen-
ger will have to be made for supply-
ing them wit’., such necessities, but
he will be under no obligations to
supply unless they pay the price of
same.
Yours very truly,
(Signed) G. C. Funderburk.
