N Morgan gave evidence today be
fore Special Examiner Maybey, in
the suit of Peter Power against the
Northern Pacific Railway company. He
was questioned for two hours and a
half by George Alfred Lamb of counsel
for Power, and during that time he an
swered questions rapidly and without
the slightest appearance Of reserve.
Only once or twice, when questions
were asked g0ncerning the relationship
of ]. p. Morgan & Co. with the frm's
customers. did he decline to answer.
Before the hearing was opened Mr.
Morgan objected to the presence Of a
number Of photOgrap Pliers and they were
directed % leave the room.
During the examination MT. Morgan
leaned back heavily in his chair his
left hand thrust from time to time
deeply in his trousers pocket. He toyed
with an envelope, now and shen strik-
ing it against his knee. now against the
table on which his arm rested. His eyer
expressed impatience. They roamed
/ about in excited restlessness, while the
questions were being put to him. but
the moment he was ready to answer,
they fixed themselves on Mr.. Lamb.
Several times during the hearing the
financier seemed amused. Once Mr.
Lamb asked If the price of Northern
Pacific did not go above its real value
while his firm was buying it in May,
1901.

THE MAN FROM MAINE
LlTTLEFlElD, WHO MAY LEAD At
TACK AGAINST TRUSTS.

Has n Record ms n Fighter-How lie
Has Forged to the Front In Com
Rress-AbIe as "a Debnter and Fcnr-
less In support of His Convictions.
Congressman Charles L. Littlefield,
'the new man from Maine" as he is
called. looms up as the probable leader
of Mr.. Roosevelt's programme TO enact
a law to regulate and control the
trusts at the next session of congress.
Should Mr.. Littlefeld make the on
slaught, his friends say that the next
session of congress will be the scene of
a fight worth going TO see. for he is
fearless. vigorous and able.
The new nan from Maine has al
ready gained some reputation as trust
regulator. on the first day of the SEES
sion just closed he introduced two bills
in the house one to amend the act TO
protect trade and commerce against
unlawful restraint and declaring every
contract or combination in the form of
trust or otherwise in restraint of
trade to be illegal. the other requiring
all corporations engaged in interstate
commerce TO file returns with the sec
rotary of the treasury disclosing their
true financial condition.
Littlefeld went to congress three
years ago rs the successor of the late
Nelson Dingiey. He at once attracted
attention by his force as debatcr

with a force almost vicious. He ap-
pears to be always daring some one to
contradict him or to ask him a ques-
ton. He wears chip on both shout
ders and always wants some one to
knock them off. At first a few accom-
modated him and then wished they had
not. Now when he speaks he is gen
orally let alone. Few are rash enough

spokesman on the trust question is
Pittsburg he was asked if anything
We're to be done in the way of trust
legislation next winter. He replied that
he hoped so; that Littlefield of Maine
had pretty good bill, and he supposed
1t would be pressed. This is the gist
of the matter. Littlefield may repre-
sent the administration in the sense
that his measure meets the presidents
views, and he may not.
The president likes him because he is
square and honest and fearless and in
dependent. Attorney General Knox
likes him because he is one of the few
great and sound constitutional lawyers
in congress.
The attitude of Mr.. Littlefield on the
trusts is a true index of his general
makeup. He has taken hold of several
other questions of magnitude since he
has been member of congress, and his
personality has permeated each one to
such an extent that his views had to be
reckoned with by his colleagues
His antagonism to the programme of
his colleagues regarding Porto Rico
was an instance of his independence of
action resulting from strong convic-
ton. He took the ground that Porto
Rico was domestic territory and as
such was protected from the imposition
of tariff.
The latest instance Of this independ-
ence of action was on the Cuban rec
iprocity question.
Representative Littlefield is as
straightforward in private life as In
public. His record is open and clean.
He has been attorney general of his
own state and speaker of the Maine
legislature. He is still young man
and in the very prime and yigor OF
mental and physical life.
Mr.. Littlefield has none of the minor
vices, and never in his fifty-one years
has he tested alcoholic beverages. He
does not use tobacco in any form. II
he has q fad, it Is to own and drive
handsome horse. He has fine stable

the past winter in Washington took

he is the typical New Englander in
figure. His home life is perfection,
and none enjoys and exemplifies bet
ter than he the old fashioned New
England fireside.
Mr.. Littlefeld is a lawyer by pro-
fession and good one by practice.
Ills friends believe that he has a great
future before him and predict that he
will one day be speaker of the house
and perhaps president.

works are to be erected in Panama and

partment OF the east. with headquar-
tiers at Governors island, New York.
The nie1eoric rise OF Adna Il. Chat
fee from a private in the ranks of the
American army to major generalShip
has attracted the attention of the
world. Before the outbreak of the
Spanish war General Chafee was a
major of negro cavalry regiment and
commandant of the cavalry school of
instruction at Fort Riley.
From humble country home at Or
well. o., General Chaffee has climbed
up the ladder to his present high posi-
ton. that of major general command
ing the United States army in the Phil
ippines, and he was the first private in
the regular army to be elevated to
such an exalted office. He will he sue
ceedcd in the Philippines by General
Davis.
Through his tact and bravery during
the charge at FL Caney and in the cam
paign in China. where he was also in
command of the United States forces,
his name has become pleasantly famil-
lar to his countrymen.
After the China campaign General
Chaffee succeeded General Macarthur
in the command of the philippine de-
partment. He then made tour of the
islands to study conditions and recon-
mended changes in the civil govern
ment.
After the civil war General Chaffee
won fame as an Indian fighter and was
the idol of his men. One of his favorite
commands when in hot chase after
Indians was. Follow me, men. and ev-
cry man that's killed I'll make cor
