TO SETTLE RATE WAR.
Both the Wabash and Its Competitors
 Have Severely Felt the Cut.

Chicago, May 23.-The Evening Post today declares that there is scarcely a doubt that the disastrous rate war in the Kansas City-New York passenger traffic will be settled during the next forty eight hours. It Is regarded as certain that at the meeting of railway officials here action will be taken re- sulting in an immediate restoration of rates.
 Overtures for settlement were made today and although details were not obtainable, 1t is said the Wabash has informally agred to withdraw it's de- mend for differential rate for it's fast mail service between Kansas City and New York. The matter of allowing this road a differential on busiSess going through Chicago will probably be taken up by a board of arbitration later. The rate war between the Wabash and it's competitions has been sharp and costly. Passenger tariffs have tumbled so that now ticket from Kansas City to New York costs but SPA more than one from Kansas City to Chicago. Scalpers have reaped a rich harvest.

FIVE MONTHS FREE.
paleville, Ala, May 2

Daleville. Ala, May zz Editor The Advertiser:
 Please state through The Daily whether or not teachers are allowed to contract with patrons for supplement during the five months public term. The opinion IS prevalent here that thr last Legislature provided for strictly free term.
 Under the Act passed by the last General Assembly, the public schools are required to be kept open abso- lutely free of tuition fees for at least five scholastic months. except in those places where 1t is absolutely impossi- ble to run them for that length or time, in which cases contracts may be made for four months if approved by the County and State Superintendent The schools must be absolutely free of tuition fees for the time specified in the contract There is no reason why, after the expiration of the free term, pay school should not be conducted. Nor is there any reason why those Of the patrons who so desire should not supplement the public school fund, and by that means run the schools longer than five months, or pay the teacher larger salary for the five months than would be justified by the use of the public funds alone. The only condition is that the schools must be free to all who are entitled to share in the distri- button of the school fund, for the time called for in the contract.

WILLIAM IS wRoTH.
fingered Because His Speeches Have
 Been Printed.

Berlin, May 23.-Emperor William has issued stringent orders henceforth to exclude newspaper reporters from all public and scmi-public functions where the Emperor intends to speak The Emperor's entourage and the po- lice have been given instructions to render impossible the stenographic re- porting of his speeches or the taking of notes thereon. The Emperor is said to be extremely wroth that his address to the Emperor Alexander regiment be- came public in spite of the great pre- cautions taken to prevent 1t. Emperor William is further reported to have said that the utterances he makes when within the circle of his officers are not intended for the public, espe- cially as often he does not then mince matters, but talks confidently The Emperor has expressed the conviction that the more important of his public speeches ought to be printed only ac- cording to their general drift and not verbatim, and that such summaries of his speeches be given to the Reichsan- zeiger and the semi official bureau.
 The German papers, commenting on this matter. say it Is impossible to carry 1t out since among the Emperor 8 guests there will always be some one to inform the press as to what mas been said, and, necessarily, incorrectly
 Emperor William has ordered that these instructions first go into effect at the unveiling of the Bismarck monu- ment, which occurs June 5.

CROP STATISTICS.

A recent editorial in The Daily Pica- yune of New Orleans mentions the value of the work of the United States Department of Agriculture to the vari- ous interests of the South also the very close association between the work of the Weather Bureau and crop sta- tistics.
 Certainly no department of the Gov ernment is making its work more ef- fective than that of the Department of Agriculture under the very able ad- ninistration of the Honorable Secre- tary. James Wilson. That his interest Is genuine, and that 1t is confined to no particular section, is evidenced by the very broad and liberal work of his department in the South. in its efforts to promote improved methods of cot ton, rice, sugar and tobacco culture.
 There Is no more important feature of agricultural work, not only to the husbandman end middle man, but to the consumer, than accurate and early compilation and publication of reliable crop statistics. Under the fostering care of Secretary Wilson, the work oi the Weather Bureau has become very closely associated with the farmer 1T his everyday labor, and the weekly climate and crop bulletins of that bu- reau are of such accuracy and of such acknowledged value to agriculture and it's many allied interests, that 1t would seem but another step in the progress of the Department to issue its statisti' cal reports with the same promptness as the weekly climate and crop bulle' tins are handled by the Weather Bu. Ieau.
 | The Weather Bureau, with it's very thorough system for the collection oi reports. seems to provide the most ex' tensive means ever devised for the col
 lection and dissemination of weather
 and crop information. It seems more
 than probable, in view of the present efficient work of the bureau along these lines, that it would be able to make
 very quick and complete statistical rec
 ports, should that work of the Depart
 ment ever devolve upon it.
 The bureaus present climate and crol reports in this section are of such valu to agricultural and commercial inter ests that they could not be dispense, Nyifb

rHE rH1Rp TERl1 IpEA.

The opposition to third term for President of the United States is not solely on account of the length of time involved. Many a man in this country holds an office more than eight years without any harm resulting from it, but no claims nor popularity have ever enabled a man to get a Presidential third term. This opposition is partly sentimental. no doubt, for the feeling has always prevailed that no man should hold the ofilce longer than Washington did. and his example is always referred to as an effective method of killing the efforts of any ann bilious man to break the record.
 But beyond this feeling of sentiment and reverence for q precedent set by the first President lies the fear that If a man should get third term 1t might grow into sort of habit with him. and there would be no limit to his hold ing on. A fourth term would be as legitimate and defensible as a third. and an ambitious man might so hedge himself about that there would be no him. This would not be con trary to the spirit of our institutions and the traditions of our Government, but would be dangerous step towards one man. government. and blow at the theories upon which we have always acted. But there are too many men, we imagine. wanting the office for any one President to get more than two terms.

LArrER-DAY WISDOM.

Shall a man be wiser in his day and generation than his maker? That may sound like a foolish question, but it isn't, as is proven by this extract from an editorial in The Chicago Tribune of recent date:
 Professor Ellie Metchnikoff. the Russian bacteriologist, attached to the Pasteur h. stitute in Paris. recently delivered a lec- ture before the Manchester Literary anu Philosophical Society in which he dis cusscd the question of the various mi crol,es infestinE tho human body, and In this connection intimated, what has proved correct in Krueger's as well as in other cases, that the stomach anu a considerable portion of the digestive tract in the body are unnecessary lncum- brances-a point of no slight consequence. since the stomach Is the favorite haoltat of the pests.
 And then this Professor goes on to argue that the stomach is unnecessary and will gradually disappear" and very strongly intimates that there are several other organs which may event. ually be dispensed with in the econ omy of human nature, or, as The Trib- une goes on to say, ito assist the slow processes of evolution is one of the uriviliges of science" the meaning be- ing that human science is going tc come to the assistance of nature in the work of evoluting out of our anatomy the organs which recent dis coveries have shown to be useless and unnecessary.

SAYS HE WAS MURDERED.
Mrs. Bresci Does Not Believe Her
 Husband Committed Suicide.

New York, May 23.-Seen at her home in Hoboken, N. J., late toaay, Mrs. Bresci maintained that Bresci did not commit suicide. "He was murder ed," she said, repeating the words again and again.
 'I had letter from him one week ago." she said. "He was allowed to write one letter every four months. lie told me of his treatment. He was kept in a cell out in the rocks down under the water level and they tried everything to meke him insane so he would kill himself but they would never succeed in making him do that. .He may have been insane, probably he was. He was starved. He saw no one and spoke to no one. It must have been dreadful and I do not see how he lived. He was man who could eat only good food and they fed him food unfit for any one to eat. Most men would have yielded and commit ted suicide but Bresci did not. They despaired of his doing so and murder ed him. I am sure of it"
 The anarchists in West Hoboken who became known through their as- sociation with Bresci have been very quiet within the last year. They all believe Bresci was either murdered under circumstances which would ad- init of it being claimed he had com mitted suicide. or else had been tor tured until he became a raving ma niac.
 Pedro Nurrati. of Paterson, N. J., . close friend of Bresci, said that Bresc was too brave man to commit sui eide. Even" said Nurrati, If Bres- ci had desired to kill himself, where could he have obtained the meansi How could a man commit suicide whc was under guard night and day? No Bresci was murdered, murdered by or der of the government"
 At a meeting of the Paragon Sill Mill workers. the Italian government | was savagely denounced and Bresci | lauded as hero and martyr.

OUTLOOK FOR IRON.
Machinists' Strike Will Accent the
 Present Dullness.

Cleveland, O.. May 23.-The Iron Trade Review this week says:
 "The machipists' strike may have an important influence on the iron and steel situation, though at this writing 1t cannot be measured. Reports given out from the union machinists' head quarters at Washington indicate only temporary Interruptions at many points. but at Cincinnati, Milwaukee, Philadelphia. Dayton, O.. San Fran cisco and at the machine tool centers of New England a very considerable number of men are on strike. and the prospects are that at some of these points the shut-downs may be drawn out.
 Foundry operations will be cur tailed If the product of the foundries cannot be finished, and to that extent there will be a reduction in the con- sumption of pig iron while the strug- gle lasts. Coupled with the recent dis turbance in Wall Street, the machin- ists' strike will accent the quietness that has come upon the iron market ist in the month. and may prolong the waiting mood of buyers.
 Wage questions are coming up for settlement in the foundry trade also, and within a few weeks the rolling mill scales in bar. sheet and tin plate mills governed by the Amalgamated Association agreement will be matters of conference between manufacturers and mon. Demand for increased wages are in the air. and the imme- diate future of the iron trade will turn upon the spirit in which the wage scale Is met.
 If advances are made in the rolling mill wages. manufacturers will be in- clineG to hold present market prices, but as always. consumption and pro duction will be the arbiters of prices. unless consultations and pools should be unwise enough to attempt to make the market by main strength.
 Leaving out the contingencies refer- red to, the situation at the moment finds its strength in the enormous con sumption in pig. having at its base the unusual prosperity of the railroads and agricultural implement manufacturers. Both these industries bid fair to have a continuance of the large demand now upon them, in view of the extent of the character of the crop reports up to this time.
 Car orders continue to be of large volume, and there Is no sign that the railroads can lessen the scale of their equipment purchases for months to come."

Coroner Bausch granted the adjournment and in doing so said; "I will make an agreement that the professor who makes the analysis shall furnish a report within seven days. A longer time will not be tolerated by me. I see nothing of a damaging character against the defendant. other than his folly In failing to report the case. do not believe that Stanley was cognizant of the death of the priest.
