fer With the President

The House committee on commerce today
authorized Chairman Hepburn and such as
sociates of the committee as he might Sc
lect to confer with the President relative
to the bill creating department of COM
merce. The committee has expressed itself
favorably on the measure, but In perfecting
its details many difficulties have arisen as
to transferring bureaus already existing to
the new department. Several of the bu-
reaus have protested against the proposed

executive branch wants. The tendency in
the committee appears quite general In
favor of a department of commerce. with
such limitations as not to create confusion
by the transfer Of too many existing bu-
reaus. The discussion today was as to
placing immigration affairs and Chinese
exclusion under the new department. For
bill awaits the conference with the Presi-
dent.

POPE WILL GIVE AID,
Assures Gov. Taft of His Interest in
the Philippines.


ROME, June 6-While talking with the
summary way the questions in the Philip
pines which require settlement. He pointed
out to his holiness that the readjustment of
the relations of church and state In the
islands was not an indication Of hostility
Of the United States to the Catholic Church,
but declared that such readjustment was
merely a necessity under the American
Constitution.
Gov. Taft referred to the prosperity and
the freedom of the Roman Catholic Church
in the United States, and cited these con-
ditions as an assurance that the Vatican
had nothing to fear from the extension of
Philippine Islands.
Replying to Gov Taft, the pontiff said
that the Roman Catholic Church had the
greatest pride in the United States. He
said he earnestly desired to help the Amer
lean administration of the Philippines in
every possible way, and he assured Gov.
Taft that the Vatican would approach all
questions raised in the broadeSt and most
conciliatory spirit.
The pope said also that matters of detail
in connection with the questions to be de-
cided would be referred to a committee of
cardinals, where they would be considered
at length, and that all the issues would be
treated with the sole aim of reaching a
settlement satisfactory to all parties con-
cerned.
The pope appeared to be in excellent
and was of vivacous humor He referred
pleasantly to Archbishop Ireland in what
he had to say concerning the Roman Cath
olic Church in the United States.

BRYAN TO ROOSEVELT.
Asks the President What He Will Do
With Beef Trust.

LINCOLN, Neb., June Elm today's Com
moner William Jennings Bryan addresses
a letter to President Roosevelt, urging him
to cause criminal proceedings to be started
against the alleged beef trust
Incidentally Mr.. Bryan declares the Presf-
dent to be a courageous man. He begins
by quoting the provisions of the Sherman
antitrust law, and continues:
You are the only chief executive of this
nation and as such are not only empow-
cred, but are required to enforce the law
By commencing civil action against the
members of the beef trust you declared
that the members of the trust are, in your
opinion, guilty of violations of the law.
why do you hesitate to commence
criminal action? The penalty fixed in the
statute is insignificant compared with the
penalty prescribed for a violation of less
important statutes If the members of the
beef trust have raised the price of meat
1 cent per pound they have laid tax of
millions of dollars upon the people of the
United States.
1T is publicly stated that some of the
capitalists have condemned you for at
tempting to enforce the antitrust law even
by civil process. 1t is even hinted that they
threaten to oppose your denomination if
you show the strenuousness in this direc-
ton that you have shown toward the Phil
ippines, but can you be scared by such
threats?
You have shown physical courage and
bravery upon the battlefield-you were not
afraid Of bullets when any one of them
might have taken your life. VIII you now
fear to face concentrated wealth? Civil
suits may annoy the captains of indus
try, but If you are going to shacke cum
ming you will have to shackle it with crimi-
nal laws.
"A prison cell will prove more effective In
the prevention of monopoly than Judgments
or DEGREES for the payment of money. You
have a chance to show that you were in
earnest when you made that Minneapolis
speech"

some luxury just beyond his reach
Last Of all, what is material civilization
doing for the wealthy and educated? She
Is always tending to increase wealth. but
has yet no remedy for those colossal for
tunes which are the curse and threat of
our time. She separates classes, making
one fastid1ous and another envious.

POLITICAL, NOT ECONOMIC.
Ship Subsidies So Regarded by EN-:
nent English Authorities.


LONDON, June 6-Sir Robert Giffen, for
mer president of the Statistical Society, and
former chief of the statistical department
OF the board of trade. testifying today be-
fore the house of commons committee on
steamship subsidies, said the changes In the
position of British shipping, compared with
those of other countries, was due largely to
circumstances apart from subsidization.
There had been a dminution of British
progress. while elsewhere, especially In Ger
many, there had been a great advance. The
number Of American-owned ships sailing
under the British flag, quite apart from
those with the combine recently formed,
had largely increased. and was still increas-
ing, and he regarded is as obvious that,
Notwithstanding the fact that the White
Star line steamers were sailing under the
British flag, the United States government
regards them as being American vessels,
and would be prepared to defend them, as
the property of American citizens.
Sir Robert also said he regarded subsidies
to be a political rather than an economic
question.
