will ReassembIe Despite Killing q
Expense Item by Congress.
Washington. March s.-The action
OF congress in striking out in COZ.
ference an item appropnating $50. 900
to defray the expense Of the high
joint commission, while regretted at
the state department. will not be al.
lowed to prevent the reassembling Of
the commission next summer. The
president. it Is held. Is not obliged to
look to congress for authority to ap-
point commissioners to conduct nego.
tiations for which he himself must
assume ultimate responsibility. The
action Of congress therefore does not
eject the oficial status Of the United
States commissioners headed by SEN
ator Fairbanks. It does make neces-
sary the adoption Of q more econom-
ical programme for the future work
Of the commission than was originally
framed, but II is found possible to
reassemble the commission and pay
the expense 0At of the contingent
fund Of the state department. Sena-
tor Fairbanks. and Sir Wilfrid Lau-
rfer, the latter the head Of the Cana
dian commission, are accordingly in
correspondence with a view to arrang.
ing a date for the reassembling Of
the commission.

Duluth Man Practices Dentistry on
Unwilling Patients.


Duluth, March 5.-John Simonson
q Ffnlander, created a reign of ter.
ror on Lake avenue in q most peculiar
manner.
Armed with a pair Of forceps he
walked up to an old man in a saloon.
asked him how his teeth were and
was told they were all right. He then
knocked the old man down and pulled
two teeth before he was stopped.
He also visited the home of a Mrs.
Eliason on the e n and pulled one
OF her teeth before he was driven of
It was learned after his arrest that
he had operated on eight or ten men
In different saloons during the morn.
Ing. but all were too drunk to realize
what he was doing. He claimed after
his arrest that he was a dentist, but
when asked for his license pulled out
contract for cutting cordwood.
The strangest feature Of the ease il
that the man seems to be perfectly
sane. II he has any other mental
weakness than this, it has not yet
been discovered.

EXPIRATION OF comoasss.

Close d session Marked BY Demon
stration in the House.
washington. March 5.-The Fifty
seventh congress expired at moor
wednesday by limitation. There has
not been in many years such q demon.
stration In the house as occurred
wednesday. owing to the fact that
Speaker Henderson was retiring not
only as presiding oficer. but from the
mouse as a member. The bitter par.
tisan feeling that has sprung up in the
mouse during the past week reached q
pitch which prevented the speaker
from receiving the unanimous approx
Al OF the house when the usual reso-
luton OF thanks and courtesy was Of
iered. More than this. the resolution
mad to come from the Republican side:
while this has occurred before. il
Is not the custom.
The usual resolution of thanks to
the president pro tempore for a
was unanimously adopted In the sen
ate. Senator Mason. whose term ex.
pired at noon. talked an unimportant
bill to death, but in his valedictory
he lectured the senate for it's un-
limited debate which allows bills to
be killed in that manner. and he also
mad a final plea for the freedom OF
the Flipinos.
AS all OF the important supply bills
had passed before the two houses
took a recess in the morning, no 1ex-
islation was necessary and none was
attempted. The bills which had
passed and reached the stage Of en-.
rollment we're all signd by President
Roosevelt. who, with members Of his
occupied the presidents room
In the senate wing Of the capitol.

CHICAGO JuRlST SURPRISED At

THE WABASH.
WILL BREED Discomfort
Believes issuance Of Such injunction
Will Also Bring Administration Of
Justice Into contempt-SAys Judges
Are Approaching . Condition That
will De without Precedent in the
History Of Ire World.

St. Paul, March "a special to
the Globe from Chicago says: I'VE
will reap the whirlwind some day from

Such was the declaration Of Judge
Tuley in commenting upon the injunc-
ton issued by Judge Adams OF the
federal court at St. Louis, directed
against the officers and rank and file
of union men employed upon the Wa
bash railroad.
II am surprised" said the Judge.
at any injunction of any kind being
issued. regret it very much. be-
cause I believe that the issuing of
such writs of in%junctions brings the
administration Of justice into con-
tempt. 1t breeds discomfort and we
will reap the whirlwind some day from
the seeds Sc sown.
Working ciasses May Control.
THE day may come in the not dis
tant future when the working classes
will have political control and will ap-
point judges who will also issue writs
OF Injunction in their favor. see no
reason Why a writ Of injunction should
not as we'll issue against a railroad
enjoining it from discharging any en-
ploye or from failing to pay employees
q certain fixed rate of wages. 1t would
be NO greater departure from the true
principles that ought to govern when
issuing such Writs.
We Judges are getting to be the
whole thing in government. We are
approaching n condition that will no
without precedent in the history of
the world, in which the governing
power will be exercised by the judges,
with the executive and legislators as
mere f1gureheads in carrying on the
government. 1t 8 time to call a halt"

arrived there during the day and after

Hancock. where they were formally
served.
It is the opinion Of the oficials that
DR.. Ames' condition is now %suffcient-
~ improved to permit his going to
Minneapolis. although his counsel.

opinion.
At the recent hearing before Gov
srnor Bachelor on the question of
extraditiUn Of DIR. Ames q report as
to Ames' physical condition was made
by DR.. Granville p. Conn Of Concord.
The report was made public during
the night for the first time. DR.. Conn
says at the beginning:
Cancer in the Family.
"The history of Mr.. Ames' family.
as given by himself. is fairly conclu-
sive that his grandfather and grand
mother on his fathers side. died of
cancer In the region Of the stomach.
MY conclusions are that DR.. Ames
evidently is Ill and the condition which
! found led me to suspect that he is
himself suffering from some malig-
nant disease in the region of the stom.
ach. This would account for his
emaciation. although it does not point
to immediate fatal results"
After describing the symptoms Of
the patient. DIR. Conn concludes:
III this were the summer months
rather tina the winter. 1t might be
considered fairly feasible to move
him with proper are to Minneapolis.
While II may now be done without
really Fastening his death. yet it
would not be considered good iudg-
ment on the part Of physicians to
recommend q long journey. as it
would be expected to make his trouble
worse and perhaps he wouh not rally
so as to be as well as before"

Railway Officials Know Not What to

Chicago, March 5.-Western railway
managers are in a quandry regarding
what action to take with reference to
annual passes which were issued and
sent to shippers before the Elkins law.
Many thousands of such passes are
outstanding, and. although they were
issued before the new statute went
into effect, the general opinion is that
their use is now illegal, and will sub
1ect both the railroad and users to a
fine for violations Of the act.
