MR.. RAWLINs CONCLUDES.
Attacks Gen. Chaffee for His Course in
the PhilippineS

Senator Rawlins of Utah concluded his
speech in the Senate last evening and re-
ceived the congratulations of many sena-
tors
Continuing his speech after The Star s
report of the proceedings was closed Mr..
Rawlings quoted the orders issued by gen
eral officers in the Philippines. He was in
terrupted by Mr.. Carmack Tenn), who
directed particular attention to this phrase
in one of Gen. Chaffee's orders:
II do not urge inhuman conduct"
1T strikes me-" suggested Mr.. Carmack,
that Gen. Chaffee should have said: i
forbid inhuman conduct
THE purpose was" said Mr.. Rawlins
that the soldiers We're left to practice with
impunity and without disapproval inhu-
man conduct. That is the only intelligent
and reasonable Interpretation that can be
put upon 1t.
the subordinate commanders who practiced
the most inhuman conduct that the mind
of man can conceive
Mr.. Rawlins sharply criticised General
Chaffee and denounced him as a bastard
villain who has brought dishonor upon the
American name and the American people"
He attacked the administration for re-
ferring to the army in the Philippines for
investigation the charges against the MILL
tary authorities in the islands made by pro-
vincial Governor Gardiner. He declared
that no proper investigation could or would
be conducted by the army which was the
object Of the criticism
In the course Of an eloquent and impas-
stoned peroration Mr.. Rawlins declared
that If the United States government should
continue in the enforcement of its present
policy in the Philippines 1t would reap a
whirlwind Of misfortunes and disasters.
The Senate then passed 43 private pension
bills. At 4:40 pm. 1t went into executive
session and at 4:55 pm. adjourned.

HAVANA'S FIREMEN,
Two Corps Combined and Reorganized
by Gen, Wood.

Heretofore two f1remen's corps have ex-
listed in the city of Havana, and 1t is rep
resented that contentious among the mem
bers of the respective corps have been sub
versive of public interests. On the ground
that the two corps do not give the unity Of
action required of a well-orga nized fire
mems corps, and because the contentious of
the members place the public order in dan
ger, Governor General Wood has entirely
reorganized the system by fusing the two
corps into single organization, to be
known as the Havana firemens corps"
having civil organization supported by
the state, the municipal council, the fire
insurance companies and by popular sub
scriptiOn. The direction and management
of the organization is confided to a COM
mittee consisting of two councilmen, two
property owners, two representatives of fire
insurance companies and two merchants
designated by the principal subscribers
The municipal mayor is chief OF the corps,
eX officio, and will assist the president of
the committee in examining the appoint
ments of chiefs, etc. The firemen will be
uniformed in blue trousers, blue jackets
with silver-pfated buttons, helmets, rub
Der boots, belts and the usual insignia
This uniform will be used as dress uni
form in formations, except that red waist
will be substituted for the jacket.

PAID HIS FINE.
Gen. Grant Tempted to Racing on
18th Street.

Apropos Of the difficulties that have been
experienced by senators and representatives
recently on account Of charges of running
their horseless carriages beyond the lawful
rate Of speed the story Of General Grant
being stopped on 14th street for fast driy-
ing is retold. 1t was during the term Of
his presidency that General Grant was the
special concern of officers charged with
keeping a lookout for violations of the law
against fast driving. He was always
lover Of fine horses and frequently drove
behind steeds that had records to be proud
Of. On one occasion he was going out 18th
street. which was then much frequented by
owners of fast horses. He was driving at
a comfortable gait when team dashed
past him. General Grant had enough of the
sportsman's blood to dislike being passed
Oh the road and he let his horse have the
reins, and for a few minutes there was
wild scene Of excitement and ground was
covered in time that would have done
credit to any track. General Grant passed
well ahead of his adversary only to be con-
fronted by the sight of a policeman stand
ing in the street a square ahead of him
The officer had watched the race from a
distance and stopped the President. Cen
eral Grant did all that was necessary to sat
isfy the demands of the law, which resulted
in paying a fine. fT
But 1 passed him. didn't II" INQUIRED

TO PRESERVE THE ROADS.
Cart Owners Must Pay Sc Month fol
Use Of the Thoroughfares.

Governor General Wood has taken radical
action for the protection of the public roads
in Cuba. 1t was shown that the continued
use of the state highways by heavy carts
and vehicles with narrow tires was destruc-
tive to the roads and entailed heavy ex-
pense to the state for their repair and
maintenance. To remedy this state of af-
fairs the military governor has directed
that cart owners must obtain permits to
use the public roads at the rate of SO per
month for each cart and that the number
of said permit shall be displayed conspicu-
ouSly on each cart. The driver is also re-
quired to have the permit or a certified
copy thereof with him. Violation of this
order will subject the offender to fine Of
not less than s25 nor more than $50 for
each offense. The representatives of the
department Of public works are authorized
to call on the municipal police, the rural
guard and the judicial authorities to assist
them in the enforcement of the order.

AGAINST BEEF TRUST
PROCEEDINGS TO BE BROUGHT
By THE GOVERNMENT.
Result Of Conferences Between the
President and the Attorney General
Preliminary Inquiries.

definite conclusion to begin proceedings
In the courts of the United States against
the beef trust has been reached by Presi-
oent Roosevelt and Attorney General Knox
after comforting about the facts in the
possession of the Department of Justice
Such action has been expected for some
time, as President Roosevelt has been de-
termfned to apply the anti-Sherman trust
law to the beef combine If the legal de-
partment believed that it had grounds for
action. Attorney General Knox has given
out the following statement which is the be-
ginning of the warfare on the great trust:
The Attorney Generals Statement.
On April this department directed w.
A Day of Washington, in his capacity as
special assistant to the Attorney General,
to examine into, as far as practicable. the
public charges to the effect that a combi-
nation Of the large meat dealers of the
United States had been effected contrary to
the provisions Of the laws of the United
States This preliminary examination re-
suited in instructions to Mr.. Day and Mr..
Bethea, United States attorney in Chicago,
on April Z. to prosecute simultaneously in
ChlcaSo and the east a more particular eX-
animation into the allegations and proofs
alleged to exist in support thereof. From
their reports 1 am satisfied that sufficient
evidence is in hand upon which bills in
equity for an injunction can be framed to
restrain the combination mentioned from
further proceeding under their agreements.
which clearly appear to be in restraint of
interstate trade. have therefore in compli
ance with the law which provides 1T shall
be the duty of the several district attorneys
OF the United States in their respective dis
tricts under the direction of the Attorney
General to institute proceedings in equity to
prevent and restrain violations of this act
directed the district attorney at Chicago to
prepare bill for an injunction against the
corporations and persons who are parties
to the combination mentioned to be filed
in the United States circuit court for the
northern district of Illinois,
Mr. Day has been making the investiga-
ton for some time under the instructions of
the Attorney General, and it is believed
that much valuable information has been
obtained. 1t is hoped by officials of the
government that they will succeed in their
prosecution of the beef trust. At present
the proceedings against the beef trust will
be on the civil side of the United States
courts. Later On the criminal side may be
invoked
The high legal ability of Attorney General
Knox is greatly relied on by the President
to push to a successful conclusion this
test case against a gigantic combination
that is doing serious harm to the people of
the country. The President is deeply in
earnest in the matter and relies fully upon
the Attorney General. Mr.. Day, who is
assisting the Attorney General, is most
competent man, worthy of the undertaking
assigned to him.
