INDIANA SENATOR WINS AGAINST

banks.
FROM THE GLOBE BUREAU,
Washington. ID. c.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1o-In the ap-
pointment of Judge Francis Baker to the
vacancy on the federal court of the Sew
enth district, which includes Indiana, Illi-
nois and Wisconsin, President Roosevelt
today turned down Senator Fairbanks
and practically the entire Republican or
ganization of Indiasa. Senator Albert J.
Bevefidge comes out a winner. Baker
was Beveridge's candidate for the place.
The only other member of the congress
sional delegation who indorsed Baker
was Representative Lincoln Brick from
the extreme north end Of the state. Bak-
er lived in Bricks district.
The organization, headed by Harry
New, state committeeman, was pluIring
for other candidates, and the fields was
united on the opposition to Baker and
Beyeridge. There were a dozen candi-
dates for the place. Fairbanks favored
Judge Moncks, of the state supreme
court A. B. Anderson, of Crawfords-
vile, was tie favorite of C. G.. Shirley
of Kokomo, and was touted by Repre-
sentative Overstreet, but they all went
wrong except the young globe-trotter
Who is making so much tnhappiness fol
his colleague senior senator
Roosevelt likes to make good appoint
ments, but he knows little about prac-
tical politics. Fairbanks is the gumshoe
rival for the presidential nomination in
J 1904. Beveridge is willing to take second
place on the Roosevelt ticket and help
Roosevelt get first place. Beveridge is
the strenuous kind of proposition Roose-
welt likes, and Fairbanks is not. Accord
ingly, there are influences at work to
break up the Fairbanks organization in
the state of Indiana, and there will be
factional doings from this on.

REPUBLICANS OVERWHEL LMINGLY
DEFEATED IN CITY OF CULTURE
AND BAKED BEANS
COLLINS IS ELECTED MAYOR
Democrats Had Predicted Plurality
of 1000, but Nearly TripIed
It-Weather Man
Blamed.

E BOSTON, Dec. 10.-The Democrats COM
pletely overwhelmed the Republicans in
the city election today, Gen. Patrick A.
Collins being elected over Mayor Thomas
N Hart by the largest plurality in
quarter of a century. The Democrats
likewise obtained control of both branch
es of the city government, elected their
street commissioner, Salem D. Charles,
and practically all their candidates for
the school commission AS usual the city
voted strongly in favor Of license.
The result of the canvass was fully as
much a surprise to the Democrats as tS
their opponents. The most sanguine
Democratic prophet last night claimed
only 1000, yet this plurality was nearly
tripled. Two years ago Mayor Hart de-
feated Gen. Collins by 2,2S1 votes and
pollcd something over 10000. This year
the total Republican vote for, mayor was
a trif1e over $4,000, the smallest given
party candidate for mayor since 1S93
despite a registration almost so per cent
larger than then. Gen. Collins received
over $1,000 votes, the largest in the history
of the city, and he carried eighteen of
the twenty-five wards.
The Republican leaders were inclined
to blame the weather tonight, but this
does not account for the tremendous
gains made by the Democrats in Repub-
Ecan wards. There was great excitement
in the close wards and in South Boston
two prominent Republican politicians
were arrested on suspicion of having
worked repeaters. This, however, was
the only unfortunate feature of the day.

for Trade Label
Defeated.

SCRANTON, Pa, Dec. 10.-The eXclu-
sion Of Cinnamon, Japanese and other
Asiatics from American territory, ticket
scalping legislation and advisability OF
adopting q universal label for union
made goods, were the principal questions
that claimed the attention of the dele
gates at today's two sessions of the
American Federation of Labor. The res
olution advocating the exclusion of the
Chinese was adopted by the convention
with considerable hurrah, but in the mat
ter of excluding natives of Japan and
other Asiatic lands snag was struck
and this part of the anti-Mongolian agi-
tation was killed so far as the present
convention is concerned.
The ticket scalping debate was quite a
lively affair. The delegates representing
the railway telegraphers opened the fgh:
against the resolution, making the point
that such action was beyond the jurisdic-
tion of the federation. The typos were
helped along in their arguments for the
adoption of the resolution by several So
cialistic members of the convention.
When the viva voce vote was taken those
in favor of permitting ticket scalping
won by an overwhelming majority. The
agitation for universal label, which has
been carried on for a long time, was
again defeated.
The convention disposed of much rou-
tine business during the course of the
day. The important question of trade au-
tcnomy will be sent to a special commit
tee, which will be announced tomorrow.

Combination of Southern Transportation Lines
Believed to Be Under Way by New
York Capitalists.
Charter Is Filed Under Laws Of New Jersey
But No Intimation Given as to Its
Real Purpose.

herein contained shall be construed to
authorize the corporation to transact any
business in any other state territory, or
foreign country, contrary to the provis-
ions of the laws of such state, territory
or foreign country.
Meaning of Last Clause.
The last clause is apparently quite
new provision and is no doubt designed
to avoid the difficulties raised by the
charter of the Northern Securities COM
pany The company is author
lied to hold it's meetings and to have
one or more offices and to keep the books
of the company within or without the
state of New Jersey at such place or places
as may from time to time be designated
by it, provided, however, that any stock
holder of record who shall have owned
stock in his own name to the amount OF
or exceeding 10 shares for at least three
months previous to such application,
shall have the right upon application in
writing to such board to personally (not
otherise) inspect at a time and place to
be fixed by the board any book or ac-
count, record, document or paper of the
aforesaid corporation; provided, how
ever that the board of directors
shall have the right to decline
to permit any such inspection to be
made, in case it shall be satisfied and by
resolution Shall declare as the grounds
of such refusal that such application is
not made in good faith.
This last provision for the inspection
of the company's books and accounts
avoids the violation of any federal law
which may be passed pursuant to Presl
dent Roosevelt's recommendation that
certain publicity be required of all cor
porations and so-called trusts. The char
ter further expressly provides that the
power to declare, fix the time of payment
and pay dividends shall rest wholly in
the discretion of the directors OF the
company, that the directors shall have
the power to reserve as working capital
or as surplus for the said company or for
any other purpose which they shall deem
conducive to the business of the company
such sum or sums as from time to time
shall to them in their absolute discretion
seem fit and proper. In some quarters
it is believed that the new charter is for
the purpose of carrying into effect the
many railroad combinations which have
been recently talked of, more partieu-
larly the Southwestern system of rail-
roads which would include the Missouri
and Southern Pacific railroads.
Mr.. George Gould, who arrived home
late this afternoon, could not be found
this evening, but it is good opinion that
he has something of the above nature
under consideration.

YOUNG GIRLS HEROISM
PLAYS MARCH FOR LITTLE ONES TO
LEAVE BURNING BUILDING
Sat at the Piano Until Last Child
Had Left the Room, and
Escaped With Diff
ficulty.
Special to The Globe.

CHICAGO, Dec. 10.-The quick wit OF
Ethel Barker the thirteen-year- Old
daughter of Aid. Barker, of Evanston,
and the GOODNESS of Miss Nellie Sickel, one
of the teachers in the Lincoln school,
averted a fire panic today and probably
saved the lives of many little ones, who,
without the splendid discipline shown,
might have rushed pell nell for the
stairs, trampling less fortunate ones under
their feet.
Just before noon the building took fire,
Miss Barker walked quietly to the piano
and commenced playing stirring march.
The children were ordered up for fire drill
and marched out in order. Miss Barker
did not cease playing until the last child
had left the building, and when she tried
to escape she was twice driven back by
clouds of dense smoke, which by that
time rolled through the corridors She
finally reached a door and went to the
first floor by groping along the walls
and along the stair banisters.
When the girl volunteered to play the
march she was the only pupil who knew
the building was on fire, for she had
heard the whispered announcement that
preceded the ringing of the fire drill gong.
When the gong sounded she ran from the
eighth grade room and began to play.
AS a result Of her GOODNESS all the chill
dren were taken out safely, although a
panic was narrowly averted when they
reached the lower floor and found that
the building was on fire.

NEW. YORK, Dec 10-A charter was
filed under the laws of New Jersey at
Trenton and New York this afternoon
which, apparently, is intended for COM
bination like that embraced in the char
ter of the Northern Securities company,
which is absorbing the securities of the
Northern Pacific, Great Northern and
Dther Western railroads.
The title of this new corporation is the
Southern Securities company, and, eX-
rept as it differs in certain provisions,
which have been the subject of adverse
criticism, it is substantially the same as
to object, power and privileges as the
Northern Securities company. 1t has
nominal capital of $1O0,0O0, but it can in
crease the amount at it's pleasure. Who
and what are behind this hew charter
are not disclosed on it's face, and the
names of the corporators, presumably
dummies, do not convey any information
They are: C. Frederick Smith, John II.
Turner, Edward 3. Hawkins, Edward 7.

The charter states that the objects for
which the corporation is established are
to construct, operate and control trans
portation undertakings, terminals and fa-
cilities, to develop properties undertake
ings, industries, enterprises or companies
for transportation by land or water; pro-
videdy however, that this company shall
not engage in any business which shall
require the exercise by it of the right of

Jersey, or, except as permitted by local
laws, without the said state construct

tion line or lines by land water in any
