FIGHTING CUT ON SUGAR
TAWNEY AND MORRIS HOPE TO
SEE DUTY MAINTAINED INTACT.
Special to The Globe.

SpCc1Al 10 OlODes
WASHINGTON, d. c., March 4.--Rtn-
resentatives Tawney, Morris, Miner and
others who have been prominent in fight
ing the cut in the Cuban sugar duty, are
very hopeful today that they will win,
judging by the cordality with which their
sentiments were echoed last night at the
caucus convention, when they seemed to
have votes enough to stand up against
the ways and means committee, and the
influence of the president. On the other
hand, the president told members Of the
cabinet at today's meeting that he was
convinced that Cuba would be aided. lie
said he had talked with members who
were in a position TO know, and was
fully assured that the house would pass
the bill for reciprocity on the lines ot
a 20 per cent cut.
Well informed members of the house
say the leaders are merely letting the
opposition blow off steam. They say it
is all fixed to pass the bill suggested by
resolutions of the ways and means COM
mittee. But they do not want to Seem
to apply any gag law. What is new
worrying some beet sugar men Is the
danger that the senate, when it gets hold
of the house bill, will inrease the reduc-
ton TO 20 or so per cent. That is what
Lodge and others are figuring to DO.

SOUNDS A WARNING
TO ALL POOLS OF RAIL-
ROADS
HIS ADVICE WILL BE HEEDED
Fearing Strict Enforcement of the
Law, One Committee Has Dis
solved, and Other Prepares 10
Break Up Membership.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-President
Roosevelt has given the railway manage
mentS of the entire country to under
stand that the interstate commerce law
and the Sherman law will be enforced
to the letter. The information has been
conveyed through the Interstate Com
merce commission, and it is understood
that the administration will not favor
any amendment to the law until tie
present laws have been enforced ana the
result noted.
The new order of things, it is reported,
has caused CONSERVATION among the ex-
ecutive officials of roads centering in
Chicago. Hurried consultations have re-
suited in the decision that all ass ocia-
tions and organizations which are in
violation of the laws involved must be
done away with and every effort made
to show the commission that the roads
purpose handling traffic free of all pools,
agreements or cut rates.
The first move in this direction is the
dissolution of the Council Bluffs and
Omaha committee, in which George W
Ristine is in charge. 1t is understood
that the Kansas City committee will soon
be dissolved
Unless the commission insists upon il,
nothing will be done with the Central
Trunk Line committee at present, nor
with the various passenger associations,
which are in violation of the Sherman
law. Similar action will be taken by the
lines east of Chicago, and bureaus III
the charge of Chairman Tucker will prob
ably be abolished.
Railroad officials are not a unit re-
garding the character of action nace;-
sary, but a large number of them be-
lieve that all organization should be
done away with. Attention is called 10
the fact that if everything is to be
handled on tariff schedules there will
be no use for associations or ''statisticai''
bureaus, as some of them are called

Talk Is That Babcock Will Be Re-
tired From Chairmanship Be-
cause of His Position
on the Tariff.
FROM THE GLOBE BUREAU,
Washington. ID, C..

Washington, ID. c.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 4.-The
Minnesota delegation in the house Of
representatives met in Senator Clapp's s
committee room this afternoon and elect
ed Joel Heatwole member of the con-
gressional campaign committee. Each
state selects a member to represent 1t
on the national committee, which will be
organized next Monday. There is some
talk that Representative Babcock will
not be chosen to his old position as
chairman of this committee, on account
of his position on the tariff.
Tariff league members are opposed to
Babcock and several of the strongest
members of the ways and means commit
tee seek his removal Mr.. Babcock mas
not yet given an intimation of what he
will do but friends predict that he will
decline to serve through another cam
paign They say he is cut of harmony
with leaders of his own party.
James S. Richardson, who has for years
been chairman of the Democratic con-
gressional committee, has announced that
he will not be a candidate for the place
again He says his congressional and
Masonic work will occupy so much of his
time that it will be impossible to serve
on the political committee.
Representative Heatwoie is confined
to his room with an attack of indiges-
ton He was unable to be present al
the meeting of the delegation today. Mr.
Heatwole has been ailing for several
days, but it was not until today that he
was obliged to quit work.

HIS MOVE FOR JUSTICE
DEMAND MADE ON TURKEY RY
UNITED STATES MINISTER.

WASHINGTON, March At is learned
at the state department that the atti-
tude of Mr.. Leishman, the United States
minister to Turkey, is likely to be mis-
understood, owing to the brevity of the
cable report, that he has preferred a de-
mand upon Turkey in the case of Miss
Stone. The understanding here is that
any action Mr.. Leishman may have TAX
en- is in the line of asserting all the
rights of Miss Stone, rather than an un-
qualified demand for the punishment of
the brigands and a payment of the in
demmty given to the brigands.
---o same sort of caveat either has
been or will be filed with the Bulgarian
government The regal effect of this ac-
ton is simply to save her rights against
either of these governments or against
boz of them pending the conclusion of
exhaustive inquiry which the state de-
partment is making.
Mr. Leishman will prefer no spec-nc
claim against either Turkey or Bulgaria.

lated the particulars of the massacre at

took upon himself responsibility for the
sending of troops to that post and for
the selection of the officer who was in
command.
Il had known him for years." ne said.
He was a fine officer, and L had every
confidence in him"
Gen Hughes said, however, that he
was convinced the disaster was due to
coincidence, and he had since heard
that the officer in command had reposed
too great trust in the natives while serN
ing in LuZon. but he was not aware Of
this trait of the mans character before
giving him the post at BaIangiga.
Speaking of the native soldiers, Gen.
Hughes said they generally did well, but
should not be trusted, except under corI-
mand of American superiors.

patted Prince Henry on the shoulder and
tapped him lightly on the breast The
prince did not resent the familiarity. On
the contrary he took 1t in the same

PRIMARY ELECTION LAW IS DIS.
TASTEFUL TO RESIDENTS OF
SMALLER CITIES
sCHALLER,s BILL Is PASSED
Municipalities of Less Than Ten
Thousand Inhabitants Ex-
empted From Its Pro-
visions.
RAILROAD COMMISSION STAYS

The house yesterday morning passed,
practically without opposition Senator
Schaller's bill removing municipal AMI
school officers in cities of 10.000 or less
from the operations of the primary cleo
ton law.
The entire membership of the house
representing the rural districts is plainly
out of sympathy with the primary cleo
ton law, which it enacted at the regular
session, and the only arguments ad-
vanced were those in favor of the pas
sage of the Schaller bill. These were
numerous and emphatic. Without eX-
ception the speakers admitted that the
primary election law was bite larger
than the smaller cities and towns and the
country districts can comfortably masti-
cate, and all were equally frank n adj
mitting that the law has already proved
a nuisance.
Mr.. Hickey, of Ramsey, secured the
passage of Senator Ives bill authorizing
the payment of the states share Of dis
trict judges salaries monthly, instead
of quarterly Mr.. Ferris called up Sena-
tor McCarthy's bill to Iegalize Grand
Rapids issue of bonds for a municipal
electric lighting plant but Jacobson
thought there might be a woodcnuc(
concealed in its verbiage, and its pas
sage was deferred after much deslitory
debate. Mr.. Kelly secured the passage
of bill changing the designation Of the
Minnesota State School for Detectives,
at Faribault. The schools for the deaf
and blind have been included under the
one name, which Mr.. Kelly said is eN-
tremely repugnant to the many deaf nd
blind pupils and their friends, who feel
that their misfortunes improperly result
in their being classed with the mentally
defective. The new name of the inStl-
tuition will be the Minnesota State

the moment the Cunarder entered within

it might be expected that word would
be received from her.
