NEW CIVIC BEAUTY PLAN

The annual conference of the Cook
county improvement societies was
marked by most important decision
in the plan to establish central body
composed Of delegates from these fifty
civic organizations. The scheme which
has proved so efficient in connect
with public charity work in this city
is not at all unlikely to be of distinct
benefit when applied to the improve
ing and identifying of Chicago and its
suburbs. This does not mean the for
nation of another civic organization,
but a sort of clearinghouse for
municipal art and civic beauty. 1t
means the bringing of existing bodies
into closer relationship for more eff
fective work. 1t means that in thus
uniting many Independent bodies the
best methods of procedure may be de-
termined, and largely ineffective, be-
cause divided, effort may be avoided
Where there is so much to be done in
the way of improving and identifying
physical conditions in this city united
effort is essential. One strong body,
representing every part of the COM
munity, is more likely to accomplish
definite, substantial results than fifty
or more small orga nizations several!y
working along independent lines and
interested chiefly in one ward or one
comparatively small section of the
city. The new central organization
will not prevent the continuance of
present efforts on the part of the con-
stituent societies in their own locali-
ties. It will, if properly conducted,
bring about better general conditions

the negotiation of reciprocity treat
Use, in accordance with the original
intention of the trainers Of the Din
ley law, found expression Yesterday
when Senator Cullom gave notice in
executive session OF his intention to
ask consideration Of the French re-
ciprocity treaty. Senator Hoar, Al
rich, Lodge and Depew gave notice
of their objections to such course
and expressed the wish that the
treaty be referred to the Finance
Committee for further considera-
ton, it being well known that refer
ence to the Finance Committee
would mean that the treaty would
never again be heard of In the Sen
ate. Senator Cullom adhered to his
Intention, saying that he was acting
in accordance with his own convic-
tons and the wishes of the Presi-

Mr.. Barrett is a very lightweight
statesman and the appointment has
incurred the enmity OF Senator Han

was MIR. Lloyd c. Griscons, now
Minister to Persia. Mr.. Hanna's
close intimacy with the Griscons is
well known and this affront from
the White House which also involves
his nearest friends and supporters
will not be easily forgiven by the
Senator from Ohio.

For bitter charge and acrimonious
invectiye the territorial fight, which
was opened up in the Senate yester.
day by the taking up of the territor
ial bill, and which has been waged
for week in lobby and committee
room, promises to surpass anything
which has lately taken place in the
Senate. Senator Quay, who is de-
termined to press the bill and Sc.
cure the admission to statehood OF
Oklahoma, Arizona and New Mex

lican colleagues with "commercia.
ism" and self interest and ugly stor
les are being circulated in regard to

joke on the House by accepting the
latter's amendment to the Immigra

been IN the habit of attempting to

The Ship ping Syndic ate, of which
Mr.. ]. Pierpont Morgan is the head,
is claimed to have shown its teeth
for the hrst time this week when the
London Dock bill was defeated on
the floor of the House. 1t has long
been the custom of the dock owners
OF London to charge a toll of AZ
cents per ton on all freight unload.
ed at that port which was shipped
from the United States. With
veiw to ending this discrimination,
Parliment enacted a law forbidding
the collection of the toll and the
dock owners got around the law by
having the charge embodied in the
bill-of-lading negotiated on Ameri
can soil. The bill just defeated
prohibited the making of the charge
in the bills f-lading made in the
United States. At first, the milling.
lumber and packing industries cord
tally supported the measure but for
some mysterious reason the support
of the two latter industries was with
drawn this week and, as result,
the measure failed. 1t is now init.
mated that an arrangement has been
affected between the shipping COM
bine and the larger shippers by vir-
tue of which the latter will share
IN the tolls exacted from the smaller
shippers and that the Morgan lobby
in Washington is responsible for the
defeat of the bill.
