TRAFFIC ASSOCIATION.
Mr.. J. ID. Stets0n Resigns as
President Thereof.
He Is Opposed TO Leeds Letter as to Political
Parties-A Talk With Mr. Stetson-Hs
Would Not Say He Resigned

J. b. Stetson has resigned from the presi-
dency of the Traffic Association.
Yesterday afternoon a special meeting Of
the executive committee was held for the
purpose of acting upon Mr.. Stetson's written
tender of resignation.
1t was accepted.
For the present and until a new president
is duly elected to fill the vacancy, the pres
ent vce-president, T. l.. Castle, will be at
the head of the association.
Mr.. Stetson's chief reason for resigning
is his objection to that part of Manager
Leeds published statement advocating that
all political bodies should assist the asso-
citation in securing a reduction Of local
freight rates.
IN THE ASSOCIATION.
MH 5tetson still remains in the associa-
tho. as a member of the executive COM
mittee. The meeting yesterday afternoon
was called by Mr.. Stetson. He did not
appear in person, but sent a written COM
muuication containing his resignation from
the presidency and some Of the reasons
which induced him to tender IT.
The chief reason is as has been stated,
ard a majority OF the executive committee
being not in sympathy with Mr.. Stetson
position, the resignation was duly accepted.
mngle the affairs of the association with
politics. His views on this point we're made
known when Mr.. Leeds statement was
published few days ago, but it was hardly
thought that Mr. Stets0n would feel the
difference between himself and majority
of the executive committee so sharply as TO
believe that 1t impaired his usefulness as
president of the association. Yet ssch Is
the practical tenor of his communication
accompanying his resignation.
Mr.. sTETsON INTERVIEWED.
When seen at his residence last evening
Mr. Stetson declined TO give any informa-
ton concerning his resignation. lie would
not even admit that he had resigned;
neither would he deny H. In an attempt to
induce the gentleman to talk OF the matter
the following dialogue took place:
I'VE understand, Mr.. StetsoD, that you
have resigned as president OF the Traffic
Association of California;"
VINO told you sop
'The information comes from member
Of the association
what else did the member say?"
Nothing definite, further than 20 ex-
press an opinion that you did not like that
portion of Mr.. Leeds recent communication
which related to an appeal 20 political
measures IN the adjustment Of present
transportation difficulties"
That's good. What else did ne say?"
Nothing"
That's funny, don't understand it."
''Is it true. MIR. Stetson, that you have re-
signed?"
81 didn't say that"
"Will you say it?"
''Not while have my senses"
Has there been any trouble Of late in
the executive cOmmittee?'
There has been trouble of ate all over
the world"
Has the trouble in the association been
the cause of your resignation ?"
Il did not say that / had resigned"
Several members Of the executive COM
mittee were also seen concerning this mat
ter, but refused absolutely to say anything
for publication.

Only Suppressed-DefendsH Himself In the
Iams case.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. Maj. Gen.
George K, Snowden and a number
of his staff returned to Philadelphia
Friday from Homestead, and unless the
situation there reverts to very serious
and critical condition the general will
remain here. In an interview he said:
There are few people in Philadelphia who
understand accurately the condition of affairs
al Homestead at present or what II has
been recently. There has been practical press
censorship out there and the newspaper cores
pondents have actually been prevented from
describing accurately the condition of affairs y
is the present military force at Homestead
sufficient to preserve orderf"
''Unques tionably. When the division was
ordered out there were prospects OF the same
revolutionary methods at Pittsburg Braddock
aud other places in that section. These threat
ening signs. outside Of Homestead, have disap-
peared and the regiments OF the Second brigade
are now sufficient to attend 10 the trouble in
that place
do you think the trouble is overg''-
by no means. The bad feeling is suppressed
somewhat but it still exists and as long as the
situation remains as it is now the Second brig
ade viii remain at Homestead. II is Just posi-
bic if their stay is prolonged other regi-
ments from other brgades may be
called upon to relieve them and the
First brigade or some Of its regiments
may be called out again. The strikers, such Of
them are on the ground now for many OF
them have disappeared are'full of threats, and
ii is a common thing TO hear men declare that
as soon as the soldiers leave they will have the
lives Of any men who hold their places in the
works. Philadelphians can hardly appreciate
the actual communism OF these people They
believe that the works are theirs quite as much
as they are Carnegie's, and il is obvious how
this sentiment renders settlement of the trouble
difficult and tedious The ultimate result will
be, believe, that the owners of the works will
regain and operate them with men Of their
own choosing

in any prosecution that may be brought in the

session Drawing to Close.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The future
compiler of the official history of the
laws of the United States viii not need
much space in which to inscribe the
really important laws enacted in the
first session of the Fifty-se,o nd con-
gress, now ready to close as soon as
the worlds fair matter is out of the
way. The session drawing to a close
has not been remarkable for its actual
accomplishments so far as respects
large legislation.
Efforts more or less vigorous have
been made to pass through both houses
of congress bills dealing with questions
that occupy a large share of public at
tention, but these. with single excep-
tion. have failed of accomplishment.
The sole measure of the first class
in Importance, not counting the APP
preparation bills which have become a
law, is the Chinese exclusion bill, and
political expediency had much to do
with its rapid congressional progress.
This bill, the Inman registry
bill. the Black Hawk and Semi
mole Indian wars pension bill, the
eight-hour bill, the bill to enable
the president to enforce reciprocal
canal arrangements with Canada, the
army nurse bill. the intermediate pen.
sion bill and the bill to increase the
pay of life savers are about the only
measures of much general interest en-
acted into law
Free silver, the tariff, the anti-op
tions bill, retrenchment of appropria.
tions and So, 600, 600 loan to the worlds
fair have been the live topics of the
session The first three subjects have
been killed, at least until after tn,
election. while the last is still befor,
/ congress.
The house passed approximately AZ!
bills, of which 2s4 were passed by tn,
senate and sent to the president o
the bills passed by the house go wer,
| public bills, including measures relat
ing to the District of Columbia; -
private pension bills; As bills to remov,
charges of desertion, and II privat,
bills of miscellaneous character.
The senate passed 69l bills, only II:
of which succeeded in running tn,
| gauntlet of the house and reaching tn,
4 president. Two of the latter number
/ the president vetoed, viz, the bill t,
send the famous McGarrahan claim t,
the court of claims for adjudication anC
4 bill to amend the court of appeal
act. Three bills the president per
mitted TO become laws without his sig
nature.
The total number of bills and join
resolutions introduced in the house wa
| 9,s35, and ia the senate S.eO4. In th,
| house 2, i0o reports were made on bills
and in the senate 1907 written reports
were made, no notice being paid to un
written reports.
The Behring sea trouble with Grea
Britain was the ugliest complication
1 the senate had to consider behinC
closed doors, and peaceful solution o
it was found in its reference to an ar
bitration commission. The Chilian mud
die also occupied some of the senate
4 attention in executive session.
