CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-Encouraged by
the successful operation Of regular
service on the Wentworth avenue line
today, the management of the Chicago
city railway announced tonight that an
effort would be made tomorrow to re-
sumo traffic on the Cottage Grove ave.
nue. cable line The intention is to start
ten trains early in tnes morning, and,
unless too much opposition is met with,
the service will be extended later in
the day. Five hundred policemen will
be added tomorrow to the number al
ready detailed to guard the property
of the company. This additional force
will be assigned to the Cottage Grove
avenue line, and the cars will be run
under the same protection as those on
Wentworth avenue. Screens have
been provided for the grip cars to
shield the gripmen. The trains will be
run at high rate Of speed, in an effort
to prevent crowds from blocking the
tracks.
Although considerable interference
marked the operation Of the Went
worth avenue line today, five-nlinute
service was maintained throughout the
day, and an attempt will be made to-
morrow to install a. closer schedule.
Riots were frequent all along the line,
but the police charged on the crowds
with such quickness and force that
only one troublesome blockade was
met with. When tho last of the twen
ty-five cars that had been in the serv-
ice reached the barn at 4;30 o'clock to
night, it was decided to suspend fur
ther traffic until tomorrow morning.

questioned the efficacy of prayer and
hailed with joy the new idea of piety
which puts personal effort and per-
sonal energy above blind appeals for
divine intervention and aid. Dr.. Adler
asserted that in his opinion man
such types, for instance, as Socrates,
Brutus and Lincoln-is on account of
definiteness alone better example
for noble behavior and more service
able as a model than the God himself.
He attacked the practice of kneel-
ing in prayer, asserting that the
thought of it was repugnant to his
whole nature, and designating it as
practice which originated in monarchic
Asia as a symbol of mans subservience
to temporal power.
Prayer" he said, "is said to have
the effect of putting before us divine
model. But the idea of God, when il
rises in the mind, fills it with kind

abler examples for behavior and serve
us better as models than deity-such
men, for instance, as Socrates, Brutus

models, not a vague notion of perfec-

moral heroes, human exemplars.
Prayer also gives vent to that in

OMAHA GRAND JURY
INDlCTS DIETRICH
United States Senator From Nebraska Is Accused of
Having Sold Appointment of Postmaster for s., 500
Postmaster Fisher of Hastings, Is Also Indicted-.-
Allegation of Political Persecution Is Made

OMAHA, Neb, Nov.16.-The federal
grand jury this evening returned true
bills against United States Senator
Charles II. Dietrich and Postmaster
Jacob Fisher, of Hastings, Neb,
charging them with conspiracy and
bribery in connection with the appoint
ment of Fisher to the position of post
master. The indictments were brought
into the United States district court,
Judge Munger presiding, and were
placed on file.
The indictment against Senator
Dietrich charges that he accepted
money and property in consideration of
his recommending Fisher for appoint
ment as postmaster at Hastings. The
bill against Postmaster Fisher charges
him with making an agreement with
Senator Dietrich by which Fisher was
to pay in property and money $1,000
for securing to Fisher the appointment.
Evidence was presented to the grand
jury to show that Fisher had bought
postoffice fixtures from the Grand
Army post at Hastings of the value of
$500 and later turned the property
over to Senator Dietrich, to whose
building it was removed, and to whom
was paid a rental by the government
In addition to turning over this prop
erty, it is charged that Fisher paid
to the senator $500 in cash
Tonight it was said that the grand
jury had been investigating the Hast
ings postoffice case for nearly three
weeks and that witnesses were present

Lind SPEAKS ON
RECIPROCITY
Says the Minority Has Adopted
the Right Attitude on ReIa-
tlons With Canada.

1417 G Street.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 16.--
Representative John Lind is much
pleased with the attitude adopted by
the Democratic minority on the sub
ject of Canadian reciprocity.
II am glad" said he today to T e
Globe correspondent, ito see that
the Democrats are getting away from
the vague and theoretical down to the
useful, businesslike and practical. The
declaration of the minority and posi-
tion of the leader, Mr.. Williams, is
gratifying. The reason why no rec
iprocity treaty has been negotiated by
the joint high commission is that the
Republican party does not want Cam
adian reciprocity"
Speaking of this matter the new
leader, John Sharp Williams, said:
I'VE hope the president will take the
initiative in causing the reconvening
of the joint high commission for the
purpose of bringing about as large a
volume of trade as possible between
the United States and Canada. We
still hold to the old time -honored doc
trine that an unnecessarily high tariff
Is an unnecessary tax on the consum-
er, whether levied here or levied in
Cuba or Canada"
Mr.. Lind has been informed by the
minority leader that he may have as
much time as he desires to discuss
Cuban reciprocity legislation, but he is
inclined to postpone his remarks un-
til he is able to get more attentive
audience than will be possible during
this general debate.

opposition to the rule. The Democrats
opposed the rule on the ground that II
