 At o'clock Mir. Kahn yielded the floor and recess was taken until o'clock.
 At the evening session Mir Kahn de- scribed in detail some of the cruelties in- fiicted by Filipinos on American troops. He made a vigorous defense of the army. It was a mistake. he said. to assert that the insurrection would end should the Filtpinos be given their independence.
 Mir. Kahn said the United States in the Philippines had lifted up down-trodden and oppressed race.
 MT. Kern Dem., Ill) denied the right of the United States to frame laws for the Philippines. because, in his opinion, the Filipinos are an allen people. He charged President Roosevelt with acting fin the Filipino matter without authority of Congress. except such as was confer red on by meagre resolution.
 There is only one man. he declared with emphasis, 'in all the world who can stop the war, and that man is The odore Roosevelt.
 "I say to you, Theodore Roosevelt" he exclaimed with vehemence, that if you are earnest in your loud declarations, and want these people to have their lib- erty and their independence. then say the word and the Congress and the people will back you up and hostiiities will cease"
 MT. Adams (Rep) called attention to the fact that only yesterday orders had gone forward reducing to 1900 the army in the Philippines.

Just quarter of century ago Cali fornia sent to New York small. wiry. silent man of 39 years. His fame as plunger in the market had preceded him him Keene had made his way East to take Jay Gould's scalp" Keene has been a factor in speculation ever. since. He is regarded as the ablest operator the street CT. Two years ago Chicago sent to the metropolis a great. big beefy. rollicking loquacious man of 45. He had no fame. He was an adjunct of the steel business. He had been a commercial traveller. sell ing barbed wire to the farmers of the a mere dabble.
 Gates has made as much in promoting steel. Keene weighs 100 pounds; Gates Gates is a Missourian. Keene's first com tract was sprinkling the streets of Shasta, Cal; Gates first contract was hoeing a hill of beans in garden not far rom St. Louis. Keene had made himself a power in the world of speculation by the force of intellect. Gates is a lucky chap whose success lies in his ability to to opportunity.
 Gates has grown so fast that he can hardly keep track of himself He did not mean it at all They say he used to have little shop beneath the Southern Hotel. St. Louis. where he retailed bar bed wire to the farmers of Missouri. At that time his sole ambition was to make living. stock market. Drifting to Chicago. he went into the employ of Ike Ellwood, after whom Ellwood City Is nansed. and there ran into what we now style the steel crowd" For a fsT ss s years he va, va, himself and s10.0O0 for Ellwood.

/ Chicago Ground Deal.

A land agent induced him to buy some
 acres near Chicago, and the responsibil- ities of landlordism quickly developed an independence that had been slvmbering
 Opportunity beckoned. Gates rushed to
 the embrace. Barbed wire was a new
 thing. The ranches of the West de- manded tons of 1t. There were not mills to supply 1t. Gates cut the timber on
 his land and sold it for money to chip in with his coterie of friends and build small factory. The sum investfc was five times that sum. Some of the paft-
 ners desiring to sell. Gates generously
 took their interests off their hands until
 he owned the mill
 Among the friends he made were the
 Moore brothers, Judge William H. and
 James Hobart, Daniel c. Reid. Judge FL

 Schwab. W. B. Leeds. ". E. Reis Rich-
 ard Trimble and J. S. Keefe. all big men in the manufacture of steel.
 Gates might now be making barbed wire on a small scale If 1t had not been for the sudden desire on the part of somebody to form q steel trust. Conflicting inter- estst continued to conflict until the name bonding material. The leading steel men of the country begged him to form a central steel government. and for the sum of $55 900 900 he did 1t. Every one of the Westerners had mill or two to sell, among them Gates.

Uneoualed Since "Jim" Fisk.

Gates equal has not appeared in the street since Jim Fisk entered the finan- cial vortex and startled the world with his gigantic schemes, his bold, multitudin- ous and successful operations. his execu- tive ability and hfs masterful grasp of conditions. It was far easier to be pow CT in Fisk's day than 1t Is in Gates day. Enterprises regarded as prodigous in the .'7Os would today be looked upon as small business.
 Most of the giants of the street have had names of one syllable; that is, among the operators. Morgan is not an opera tor, neither are Hartman. Rockefeller and men of that stamp operators. refer to kings of the ticker such as Jay con" White. Louis V. Bell. Thurlow Weed, Daniel Drew and last, but not least. John w. Gates.
 First of all comes Keene, for he is an operator. or speculator, pure and simple. lie is In class by himself. He is di- rector ,n no corporation and never had a partner in the great game of stocks. He has dealt in more millions of secur- ities than all the rest put together ever dreamed of. After Keene we must place Fisk, then in their order Gould. Drew. Gates. Weed. White and Bell. Gates was the most sudden of all. He came as a bolt of lightning out of a, clear sky and caused conVulsons the moment he struck the Street. Like Fisk. he is of great girth. with an enormous capacity for food and drShk Nobody ever heard of his be- shape of man or beast that ever entered the arena, and no proposition Is big enough to frighten him. He educated his nerve when he was an ordinary steel and wire man selling fences to the farmers of the Southwest.

The Trenton Fair

Anaconda, with a mark of q !, and
Prince Alert, whose record is 200a,
have been secured to go mile for a
purse of IS, 900 to beat the half-mile
track record, at Trenton, on Wednes-
day, October 1st, during the Inter
State Fair, which opens September
Goth. In view Of the fact that both
horses are in splendid condition, and
the track, famous for speed, has never
been faster, it is confidently expected
that the record will be broken.
Another big feature of the speed
program of the Fair is the double team
race, which is scheduled for Thursday,
and in which are entered the fastest
two-horse teams in the country.
The race program includes twenty
two events, in which there are entered
more than two hundred Of the speediest
and best horses in this section.
The race program, however, has been
so arranged that it will not interfere
with the production on the big open
air stage in front of the grandstand OF
the most up-to-date and novel aggre-
CATION of vaudeville acts ever at
tempted by an outdoor fair.
The exposition features have not
been neglected by any means, and the
entries in the agricultural, domestic
and industrial danortnlents far exceed
those of former years.
The midway has received the espe-
cial consideration of the Fairs man
agement this year, and the conclusion
has been reached that the features in
this department of the Fair will be
even more attractive than in former
years, and that they are of so high
class and standard a character as to
add much to the drawing qualities of
the Fair.

| counsel. former Judge II. Burdette Herr.
| are preparing to fight the application and
| to show that Pidcock was sane and in
| fun possession OF his faculties when the
| hotel was sold. and Is simply adopting a
| novel means OF endeavoring to rid himself
| OF a bargain of which he is tired.
| Pidcock lives at Whitehouse Station In
