fearful storm the party got into the rig

filled with water and fell over onto the

the rigging, having fallen asleep from
exhaustion. and was thus found by the life

that ne had no ofhoiAl knowledge, but he

OPPOSES THE C0RLISS BILL
Joseph Nimmo Would Limit Conn

Over Rates.

WASHINGTON. April 27.-The house
committee on Interstate commerce, which
has been holding a series OF hearings on
the question of granting enlarged powers
over railroad rates to the interstate COM
merce conifnission, held a session yesterday
evening. when Joseph Nimmo. formerly Of
the treasury department appeared as the
nrst witness in opposition to the Corliss
bill
Mr.. Nimmo said that the recent appeal 10
the circuit court at Chicago was the first
attempt to apply the civil remedy pro-
vided by section 16, Of the act to regulate
commerce, and asserted that the Corliss
bill in terms aims to destroy that remedy.
A lively colloquy ensued between Mr..
Nimmo and Judge Knapp Of the commits
sion, the latter stating that there had
been no reduction in transportation
charges in this country during the last ten
years. Mr.. Nimmo strenuously denied de-
clar,ng that the statistics OF the commerce
commission show a reduction Of 221s per
cent. Mr.. Nimmo opposed placing absolute
power over rates in the Interstate Com

PLANS OF WEEK IN SENATE
Nothing Definite Beyond the ContIn-
nation OF Debate on the
Philippine Bill.

WASHINGTON, April 27.--The plans of
the senate for the week do not extend be-
yond the continuation Of the debate on
the Philippine government bill and the
consideration OF minor matters when there
is no one prepared to speak on the Phil
lppine bill. There is no prospect thus far
for speeches in support of that measure,
and consequently all the talk bids fair to
continue to be on the negative side Of the
question. Up to the present time the
speeches all have been made by minority
members Of the Philippine committee, but
II is stated that other democratic SEN
ators have promised to lift their voices
in opposition to the bill, among them
being Messrs. Turner, Clay and Simmons.
Senator Hoar also has made known his in
tention to speak on the bill, but IT is not
expected he will be heard during the pres
ent week.
In the committee the inquiries into the
sugar question as relating to Cuba and
into General Crozier's connection with gun
carriage intentions probably will be begun.
The committee on the Philippines will also
proceed with it's investigation into the con-
dition of affairs in the Philippines.

During the siege she was caught by the

she was never able to get a pension from

uments to prove her marriage.
She always dressed neatly and modestly.

Allowed Use of Parliamentary

ican and colonial journalists coming to
London for the coronation are to be en-
tcrtained May l at banquet In the Cri-
terion by their London conferees. AM
bassador Choate and other notabilities will
be among the guests. On request of the
committee OF the Institute OF Journalists
the sergeant at arms OF tho House of Com
mons has courteously signined to the for
eign and colonial journalists working in
Westminster Abbey that they may have the
privilege of using the writing rooms in
the houses OF Parliament reserved for the
press. This is a great concession, as 1t Is
the first time any newspaper man not in
cluded among the $50 having tickets for the
parliamentary press galleries has been per-
mitted to enjoy the press facilities within
the palace of Westminster.
Prince Edward OF York, the prince OF
Wales eldest son, who will be king some
time II he lives, will be years old a
few days before his grandfather Ia crowned
and is taking lively interest in the
preparations for the coronation, as would be
expected from boy of his age.
He is said to have expressed profound
disgust and disappointment at hearing that
the royal party will ride on horses or in
carriages in the coronation procession. He
thought that on such a gala occasion they
might at least be mounted on elephants
and camels from the Zoo.
Though the streets are to be lined with
80, 900 troops on coronation day, II Is feared
that the police will be insufficient to cope
with the concentration not only Of giant
crowds. but Of all the crooks on the earth
who can scrape together the price Of a
ticket to London. 1t is suggested that the
police be reinforced from other cities with
men to do patrol work. while the London
constables are detailed to watch the scat
tered gangs of criminals who are expected
to visit the metropolis the next two years.
The oficers' estimate s that the corona
tlon will attract far larger throngs of
visitors than either jubilees, despite the
fact that up TO now London has been
rather emptier than in normal years.
