CURE FOR
Robert Williams Thinks Goats Milk
VIII Eradicate Tuberculosis.

PHOENIX, A. T., March 31.-Under the
belief that with goats milk he can cure
consumption Robert Williams is establish
ing an immense goat camp in the Migollin
mountains. Williams suffered from con-
sumption once and came 10 Arizona to be
cured. With a few hundred dollars he
bought a small ranch in the mountains and
stocked it with Angora goats. On a con-
slant diet of goats milk he gradually re-
gained his health, and in two years nearly
doubled his weight. He thinks that any case
of consumption can be cured by his treat
ment. He insists on an absolute diet of
goats milk and allows no meat, but ad-
vises a moderate use of vegetables. His
treatment provides for a pint of milk with
bread morning and night, with half a pint
at intervals of two hours during the day,
and he AYERS that a dislike for milk soon
grows into a craving for il, particularly
after the patient has begun the daily exer-
else required.
Williams wants the government TO take
up the matter. He has compiled statistics
to demonstrate that the government could
establish in the mountains of northeastern
Arizona q series of sanitariums, where more
than 1900 patients could be accommodated
and treated at no expense, the profits from
the goats in wool. hides and meat being
more than sufficient to pay for the care Of
the patients.

Three speeches were delivered. two I'm sup
port Of the measure and one against it.
Mr.. Simmons, Of North Carolina. made
an extended argument in opposition 10 the
bill, reinforcing cogently points heretofore
made against the proposed legislation and
adding some new and forceful arguments.
This was Mr.. Simmons's maiden speech in
the Senate. and he was cordially congratu-
lated at its conclusion.
Mr.. Dillingham;, of Vermont. presented a
strong legal argument in support Of the
measure and vigorously arraigned the man

In supporting the pending bill Mr.. Nc

belief that tho farmers OF the country were

Mr.. Lodge. chairman OF the committee

LAW MUST BE OBSERVED
RAILWAYS CANNOT THE
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ACT.
Commissioners PrOuty Serves Notice
Before Beginning an Investign-
tiOn at Chicago.

CHICAGO, March Sit is the purpose
of the Interstate-commerce Commission TO
employ every means within it's power to
secure an absolute observance of the pro-
visions of the interstate-commerce act. The
commission is not going to cease work
because injunction suits have been begun
with the same end in view" This announce
ment was made to-day by COMMISSIONS
Charles A. Prouty preliminary TO the in
vestigation which will be conducted here
beginning tomorrow.
Asked what the commission expected to
discover and what would likely be the out
come, provided evidence of late infrac-
tions of the law developed. Mr.. Prouty said:
I'VE must first ascertain what is and has
been done, and then determine what action
is advisable under the circumstances as
they may develop. The fact that the De-
partment of Justice is proceeding by an
other means would not prevent our taking
the initiative in ~instituting criminal pro-
ceedings should the facts disclosed by the
evidence warrant such action.
Upon former Investigations railroad Of
fcials have told us that secret practices
have been abandoned and the law observed.
Despite this fact one railroad had on file
with the commission for some time a tariff

the Missouri river to the seaboard, ana IL
was not met openly by any other road.
Now, we would like TO learn how il was
the other lines managed to get business
upon a tariff of 4S cents. when the road IN
question was carrying il for ~ cents"
Commissioner Prouty said another pur-
pose of the hearing was TO take steps 10
compel the railroads to publish their eX-
port rates. This is a radical departure,
although some of the roads in time past
filed export rates on grain and grain prod
ucts. In general, however, railroad officials
and attorneys claim that the law cannO
compel them to publish export tariffs, and
a battle is to be made on this point. The
reason for the fight is that the railroads
have been making higher domestic rates
upon packing-hOuse products and grain,
and then cutting the rate by taking care
of everything as export shipments. Asked
IL the commission urposed trying to probe
any of the alleged Eastern pools, the COM
missioner said that, so far as he knew
there were no pools.
Concurrent with the commissions inves-
tigatiOn is a noti-e by all Eastern lines
that. effective April Ii, rates will be raised
on grain and grain products and upon
p~acking-house products, both for export
and domestic purposes, and both by all

new rates are from 2 to 4 cents higher pei
100 pounds than the present rates, and they
will establish a differential on grain and
