ing of executive officials called for to-
morrow at the office Of ]. G. Stubs.
The meeting will be the second of this
character held this week, and it is ex-
pected that some decision will be reach
ed regarding the retention Of the various
terminal point committees, which many
officials admit are in violation of the
laws which the president and the inter-
state commerce commission assert must
be obeyed.
Thus far there have been no withdraw
ais except that of the Chicago & North
Western. The North western will be
represented in tomsrrow's meetings, but
it is asserted that no effort will be made
to get the company to rejoin the Omaha
committee. 1t is also maintained that
the Omaha committee can be run with
out the North Western, and this is taken
to mean that the officials of the North
Western have agreed to abide by the will
of the majority, although not a member
of the organization.
A canvass of the lines made today de-
veloped that the alleged withdrawal of
the Alton and the St. Paul from the
Kansas City committee is untrue, and
officials of the Rock Island deny that
they contemplated severing relations with
all traffic organizations.

Henry Of Prussia Travelled from Chicago
to Niagara Falls today, crossed the Can

which he was officially welcomed by the
Dominion, and resumed his journey to-
night, bound for Boston, over the New
York Central line
His longest stop in almost thirty hours
of continuous travelling was at Niagara
Falls. which he saw bridged in with ice
He viewed the horseshoe falls from Table
Rock, the American falls from the ledge
over the whirlpool on the Canadian shore,
rode down the gorge to point below the
lower whirlpool, and there inspected the
plant of the Niagara Power company,
which converts the force of nature to
the purposes of commerce. He was much
impressed by the falls, and as he stood
= on Table Rock, looking across at the
Horseshoe, he said:
1T is magnificent; it is grand" He
was much impressed also by the swirling
rapids down in the gorge, and when he
left his car at the whirlpool he stood
for several minutes watching the tumb-
ling Of the waters.
The special train had traversed Indiana,
and was well on it's Wy over Ohio before
Prince Henry arose He was worn out
when he left Milwaukee, and he did not
respond to demonstrations by the people
of Toledo and of Sandusky. He did not
receive notice Of the intention of the citi-

was conveyed to him by their banu play

late to get up them, and Toledo did not
see him.
AT Cleveland there was a friendly dem

into the car for a reunion with the prince,
which greatly pleased both. Karpp was

Ihls vote was taken on the motion to
substitute the report OF the minority
which provided the bill should be placed

OF the strength of the friends Of the
measure. when it came to a vote for
the adoption of the report of tie tax
committee, recommending indefinite post
ponement, there were CnIy t changes.
lie opponents of the bill appeared con-
ndent from the start and althOU Sh the
opposition did most of the talking, there
appeared to be no uneasiness except dur
ing the speech of Senator Mccarthy, who
leaped into the breach with the last ar
gument, that the Republican party was
in honor bound to pass the measure The
Republican members did not know what
the senator from Itasca might say in the
course Of his heated address and there
was on that account -Jme apprehension
on their part.
Nearly the entire day was tevoted to
the Jacobson bill, which proved to be tho
vehicle for far more oratory than has
been INDUCED in at any time du ng the
present session. Senators McCarthv
Brewer, Young, Thompson and titzpat-
rick were the most strenuous supporters
OF the proposition to have the bin placed
on general orders, but their efforts were
| useless, as the opponents, when the final
vote was taken, had but six less votes
than what they had counted on, and this
was enough.
Immediately after roll call in the morn
ing session Chairman McGiH, Of the tax
committee, to which the Jacobson bill
mad been referred, asked permission for
the tax committee to leave the senate
to make a report on the bill Senator
Snyder member Of the committee, who
had several amendments to offer, was

of the bill was almost settled. Senator

cal future to look forward to, he would

NEW YORK. March SIT was learned

traffic associations and traffic committees
must be abandoned, and this will leave
the individual roads free to slash rates
as they please. The action of the rail

the secret cutting will be adjusted in any
