FAVORED THE PROJECT.
Endorsement of Proposed Department
of Commerce by Industrial Commission

The Endorsement by the late industrial
commission Of the project to create a de-
partment Of commerce and labor was for
nally made today before the House COM
mittee on commerce by Major John NJ.
Farauhar and Charles H. Litchman, who
We're designated with Mr.. Kennedy by
resolutions passed by the commission to
make the Endorsement.
Major Farquhar occupied most of the
time Of the committee today in continuing
his argument begun yesterday. He in
terested the committee particularly in his
detailed explanation of the British board
of trade and it's functions in looking after
foreign trade. This organization he pro-
nounced the acme of efficiency in this re-
gard. Our own consular reports, he said
were sporadic; they drew no concerted con-
clusions. and the information they contain
ed was not put in the hands of the people
who needed it.
IF / was a member of this House." de-
clared Major Farquhar, Il would introduce
and urge a bill taking the whole consular
service out of the State Department and
placing it in this department of COM
merce.
Major Farquhar suggested the necessity
of amending the bill by providing for an
additional assistant secretary. making two
assistant secretaries. He also suggeste ed
the necessity of legal adviser for the new
department.
Mr.. Litchman indorsed briefly what Major
Farquhar had said

OLEOMARGARINE BILL.
Senator Proctor's Opinion of the Meas
ure Passed Yesterday,

The oleomargarine BILL as passed by the
Senate yesterday afternoon. is regarded by
Senator Proctor, chairman, of the commit
tee on agriculture, that reported the
House bill to the Senate with amendments
very much more effective in suppressing
the sale of oleomargarine as butter than it
was in the form in which the House ap-
proved it. The main change consists in
striking out the proviso in the first section
in regard to the right of a state to allow
the manufacture of butter for sale within
the state, which senators argued would
practically have nullified the bill wherever
state chose to legislate against 1t. An
other important change was to provide
new system for the taxing, inspection and
process of treating renovated and adulter-
ated butter, putting these articles Under re-
strictions similar to those which; are ap-
piled to oleomargarne This Is very i'm
portant change, the effect OF which is to tax
ary adulterated or fraudulent product at a
high rate and to make the tax on the gen.
ulnc product as low as, possible. The tax
on uncolo- d oleomargarine was reduced by
the Senate, as is the tax ON the dealer in
uncolored oleomargarine. The bill is re-
garded so far as butter is concerned a
pure food law.

Mission Secret.

CHICAGO, April 4.-Count Matsukata,
former premier of Japan. who is making a
trip around the world to study modern
methods of finance, arrived in Chicago late
last night. The oriental visitor will remain
in Chicago for two days, leaving tomorrow
evening for New York and Washington.
The count will sail for Southampton on
April 90.
While Tanetaro Megata, director Of rev.
enues of Japan, who is in the party, de-
clares that the visit of count Matsukata to
America and Europe is only for the pur-
pose of observation, his primary object,
says the Tribune is understood to be the
completion of the arrangements for a loan
to the japanese empire. The first negotia-
tions We're carried on by the Marquis Ito
during his recent visit to London. Count
Matsukata started for Europe ten days af-
ter Marquis Ito returned home. That fact
is regarded significant
1t is expected that Count Matsukata VIII
complete the financial end of the negotia-
tions, Ito having cared for the political
ends of the deal. Director Of Revenues
Megata, the Tribune continues will ex-
plain in detail the japanese system Of GUS
toms, and endeavor to dispel any doubts OF

on Government Troopships.

Secretary Root has prepared a report in
answer to a resolution of the Senate call
ing for all the information contained in
the reports of Coils. Chamberlain and Maus
Of the inspector generals department in
regard to the transportation on army
transports of freight for private firms or in
dividuals. The Secretary instituted a thor
ough investigation of the transport service
at all the points of shipment in this coun-
try and in Manila, and a result he is
able to inform the Senate that the records
of the department show that there are no
cases of the character referred to in the
Senate resolution of inquiry. The rules of
the service prohibit the transportation of
merchandise for private parties and are so
strictly enforced that even samples cannot
be carried on the government ships. 1t is
expected that the Secretary's report will
be forwarded to the Senate this afternoon
or tomorrow.

GEN. BROOKE HERE.
Secretary Root Discusses With Him
the Light on the Liberty Statue,


Major General Brooke, commanding the
department of the east, is in this city, ac-
companied by Major S. r. Jones of the
quartermaster's department for the purpose
Of comforting with the officials of the War
Department with reference to the quarter
ing of such portions of the troops in Cuba
as are to be stationed in the department
of the east.
General Brooke had an interview with
Secretary Root at the War Department
this afternoon with regard to the authority
and ability of the department to continue
OF the statue of Liberty on Bedloes Island,
in New York harbor. This light has been
abandoned by the light house board under
the Treasury Department, as no longer nee
eSSary to navigation and the custody and
care Of the statue has been transferred to
the War Department. The electric light
plant now used for lighting the statue be-
longs to the Treasury Department and has
been retained by the War Department
pending legislative authority for its formal
transfer.
Secretary Root says that he will main
tain the light in the statue if he has the
legal power to do so and he discussed that
question with General Brooke this after
noon. If Congress fails to make specific
appropriation for lighting the statue with
out regard to its use as an aid to naviga-
tion there is an impression at the War De-
partment that the expense for maintaining
a light there might be met out of the gen.
eral appropriation, for fuel, lights, ETC., at
military posts.

Trend Toward New Order of Things
Indicated.

The State Department has made public
copies of two Chinese edicts, which were
sent by United States Minister Conger at
Pekin, under date of February 6. The
edicts, says Mr.. Conger, indicate the loos-
ening of the bonds of old custom and the
present trend toward new order of things.
The first edict removes the prohibition of
intermarriage between NanehusS and Chi
nese and is of political Significance, says
Mr. Conger, as indicating desire to en-
phasze less strongly the distinction be-
tween rulers and ruled. 1t also bids Chi
nese officials and gentry to persuade Chi
nese women to do away with the old Gus
tom of foot binding. and let their extremi-
ties grow as nature Intended. The practice
says the ediet, fsJs.an Injury to the good
order of creation" "
The other edict is m line with The policy
declared in a number OF recent edicts, and
contemplates the sending abfoadsof eompe-
tent Cinnamon to study western methods
in order to extend the International rela-
tions of the empire.

conflicting reports are in circulation today
The attempted robbery occurred fifteen

train loaded with policemen and deputy
sheriffs, and the robbers were taken by sur
prise, their plans having been tipped off by

violence was offered to the trainmen, and
after hold the train thrty-tive minutes, it
was allowed to proceed.
