FLIGHT OF SENATOR STONE.
Missouri Man Charged With swearir

Missouri Man Charged With Swearing
 to a Fa!sehood in His Kansas City
 Speech.
 William J. Jones, recently elected to occupy the seat so long and honorably filled by Senator Vest. is directly and specifically charged with telling false- hoods in his public dealings with the people of Missouri. It is most humili- ating situation for the state. and des- perate one for Stone. He admitted in his Kansas City speech that he had been employed as an attorney by the baking powder trust in 1901, when bill was before the Legislature to repeal the law, epacted two years before, which through a scheme known to but few, gave the trust the exclusive right to sell and manufacture baking powder in this state. That this monopoly was worth millions to the trust. with 30OO- 900 Missourians as compulsory patrons, is self-evident When Stone, in 1901, mailed his anti-repeal argument to members of the Legislature, he was en- ployed by the trust, as he has just ad- mtted, but. he represented at that time,
 anu udS tO ASpA this week. that he acted in behalf of a health association benevolently organi- zed to protect the public from adulterat- ed food. If Stone had told the truth in his argument of 1901 he would have said that he had been employed by the bak- ing powder trust to prevent the repeal of the monopoly, and that he would give the reason why the law should stand. But he invented the health association myth in order to impress the people that his argument was en- tirely in their interest and purely phil anthropic. In the whole history of
 America politics there is scarcely an l other instance of such an elaborate
 piece of studied, low hypocrisy.
 i No sooner was Stones self-implicatior and superheated speech at Kansas City given to the public than his veracity is 1 crushingly attacked at a new and lead. ing point. The baking powder law ol i 1899, which gave the trust it's monopoly has been a mystery in it's origin, though
 it's secret purpose was quickly devel- oped.

PART OF MANILA WALL
ONLY FIFTY YEARS OLD
This Is the Portion Threatened
-s With Demolition.

The Bureau Of Insular Affairs. War
Department, is in receipt of a number
of documents, petitions. etc, relating
to the proposed demolition of the walls
of Manila, which throw some light on
the question
Act No. $50, passed by the Philippine
Commission March s, 1903, provided for
the removal OF a part of the city wall
for the purpose OF securing a much
needed addition to the water front on
the Pasig River for the accommodation
maritime trade.
When It became known in the United
States that such a step was being con-
sidered, a number OF protests were filed
against the destruction OF the only city
wall within the territory of the United
States, and the officials at Manila were
requested to make a full report on he
subject.
II appears that the part OF the wall
that was to be taken down is not an
ancient or historical monument. The
most ancient part OF the wall Is that
forming Fort Santiago. which is perhaps
three hundred years old. The next IN
point OF age is the wall which lies on
the sea side of the city extending from
Santiago to the bastion opposite the
Legaspi monument. and then as II ex-
tends around the east and north sides OF
the city II becomes more recent until
the part to be taken down is reached
which was built as late as 1850. and
therefore, has no historical interest or
architectural beauty.
The civil governor invited an express
sion OF opinion from the Spanish Cham
Der of Commerce, the municipal board
OF the city of Manila. the city engineer
OF the city of Manila, the Society o!
Architects of Manila, the Property Own
ers' Association, the advisory board, and
the tax revision board of Manila. All
these bodies presented reports and every
one urged the demolition of the part OF
the wall IN question.
All are OF the opinion that the filthy
moat surrounding the wall IL a breeder
of pestilence, and that IT should be
drained and filled.
