Inauguration of "Kommers" Arouses
Boston Preachers.

Boston. Dec. 4.-Recent reports of the
inauguration of "Kommers'' at the Mas
sachusetts Institute of Technology hav-
ing aroused the clergymen of various
denominations, the matter was consid-
cred formally by the Baptist, Methodist
and Congregational ministers.
At the Methodist preachers meeting
Rev. DR.. w. T. Worth, of Auburnda1e,
reported for the investigating commit
tee, saying that DR.. Pritchett the presi-
dent of the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, wrote to the committee a
letter. in which he said that the amount
of beer drunk at the student smoker"
was only Sc pints for 81 men, and that
he allowed gatherings OF classes on the
property of the institution, where a
simple lunch was furnished, to have d
moderate amount of beer, rather than
have the students meet at hotels and
restaurants. The investigating commit
tee declares that it is not question of
pints and quarts, but question OF
principle Resolutions were adopted by
this body and somewhat similar ones
presented by Rev. DR.. A. C. Dixon at
the Baptist meeting, deploring the step
taken which seeks to establish among
students the beer drinking habits of
German university life" A resolution
offered at the Congregationalist min
isters' meeting was tabled and Presi-
dent Pritchett was invited to address
that body next Monday on the student
problem

TAX IOWA RAILROADS.
Governor Elect Cummins Announces
His Proposed Reforms.

Des Moines, Ia, Dec 24.-Governor-
elect A. B. Cummins has announced his
programme with respect to the taxation
of railroad property in Iowa He pro-
poses the creation of a nonpartisan
commission of three men to investigate
and determine the actual value of the
railroads in this state, their conclusion
to form the basis of the assessment by
the executive council
He suggests the postponement of the
date of assessment from March until
July, that the railroads may be as
sessed at the same time other property
valuations are eQuaIized by the coun-
ell.
Mr.. Cummins was supported for the
nomination for governor by those who
charge that the railroad property of
the state is escaping taxation, and his
programme created the hveliest interest
in Iowa. The radicals who favor a
large increase in assessment and the
railroads both incline to oppose his
scheme.
