 Mir. Cochran (Mo.l made speech on the universal spread of trusts and com- pines in this country and the tendency for curbing them. He declared that cor poration Hobbies were Republican In Re- publican States and Democrats in Demo- cratic States and that although public sentiment demanded legislation 1t could not be obtained. The trusts he said. contributed to both political parties and tied their hands. It was time for some one to speak the truth and he warned the American people that no relief could be hoped for until there was complete divorcement of legislatures and Congress from corporation Hobbies and influences. The point had been reached, he said, where the Attorney General and even a member of the Supreme Court had been taken from the employees of great cor porations.

FEssENDEN's SYSTEM.
Feasibility of Sending Messages
 Without Wires is Demonstrated.

Norfolk. Va, April 25.-Tests of the gov ernment's new system of wireless tele- graph were made yesterday at Roanoke Island. Pamlico Sound. before a number of naval experts and correspondents. The tests were in charge of Professor Reginald Fessenden of Allegheny, Pa, who is now attached to the Weather Bureau Service. and who Is the inventor of the system.
 From what could be learned late to- night 1t is acknowledged that the feasi- bility and practicability of sending wire less telegraphic messages at sea. quickly and accurately by the new system has been demonstrated beyond doubt. The experiments were conducted from Cape Hatteras to Roanoke Island, distance of sixty miles. by an entirely salt water route.
 It is stated that General Greeley's nasty departure to Washington was for the purpose of being present when his asso- ciates at Roanoke Islands will make an attempt to send wireless message to the Bureau at Washington, possibly to- morrow.
 All who have participated in the test made are sanguine that the new system. will prove a great success.

IS TIRED OF THE DELAY
Has No Preference for One
 Route Over Another.
Senator Pettus Introduces In tha Senate a Bill to Vest Title to Spanish Masts in the State
 of Alabama.

Washington, April 25.--tSpeciaLl l-Thf President will it is understood, send special message to Congress asking foy action on the isthmian canal project
 He has no preference for one route over the other, but he wants to see the Senate get under way with tn discussion of thf subject so that one or the other may bN chosen. He is restless at the Senate'e delay.
 fere with the business of Congress and has refused in the past to offer sugses- tons on the canal situation lest his sug~ gestiens be termed interference But since the negotiations, which have re- gently been corcluded with Colombia. must be laid before ths Senate, the Pres ident will take advantage of this oppor- tunity to interject few remarks invft- ing attention to the desirability of ap 'isthmian waterway connecting the AL lantic and Pacific.
 Disposition to Delay.
 There is a decided disposition for delay in the Senate, but 1t Is believed this ace ton by the President will hasten canal legislation. He may delay his message until the pending negotiations with Nica~ ragua and Costa Rica are concluded. but even with this, it Is believed the message will reach the Senate by the last of next week.
 The Wiley bill providing that the title to the Spanish masts sent to Montgomery by Captain Hobson, be vested in the State of Alabama, was introduced in the Sem ate today by Senator Pettus. It will pass the Senate without opposition. and th< President will sign 1t.
 Senator Pettus also introduced a bill providing that to the medical department of tho army there shall be attached ( corps of dental surgeons, which corpk shall not exceed in number the actual res quirements nor the proportion of one to one thousand authorized by law for ser- vice in the regular army.
