the parade went up State street.
When the president was ushered TO

that he didn't like that team because it
was too frisky and he feared some one
might be hurt. The horses had become

FAVOR TIE ELKINs BILL.
Senate and House Republicans WILL Pass
Measure Against Railroad Rebates,
ar Roosevelt's Request.

Washington, FEB. lin order that
the administrations antitrust pro-
gramme of legislation may be rem
dered entirely symmetrical, 1t is
known that President Roosevelt de-
sires that what is called the Elkins
rebate bill shall be enacted into law.
That measure was passed by the SEN
ate last week.
The house committee on interstate
and foreign commerce has agreed to
favorably report the Elkins anti-re-
bate bill with certain amendments.
Tuesday the president had con-
ference with Representative Little
field. He is urging strongly that his
measure be taken up and passed by
the senate. He maintains that, while
the Nelson amendment provides for
publicity as to some of the operations
of corporations, 1t docs not go SO far
as his measure goes and not SO far
as congress ought to 60 in the mat
ter.
Later, Senator's Spooner and Al
drich had extended talks. with the
president about trust legislation.
With other congressional callers the
president discussed the subject, urg-
ing upon all, it is understood, the
desirability that congress should en-
act the Nelson amendment and the
Elliins rebate measure. It's the con-
sensus of opinion among members of
congress that both of those measures
will be enacted into law and that IL
is scarcely likely that congress will
go further with antitrust legislation
at the present session.

attention Tuesday the necessity for
Legislation regarding the currency of
the Philippine islands. He presented
dispatches received from Gov. Taft
urging the enactment of remedial
financial legislation, and the efforts
to obtain this legislation from con-
gress were discussed: AS viewed by
the administration, the necessity for
both financial and remedial legisla-

gent. Indeed, if something of the
kind be not accomplished soon.
there is apprehension that another

Des Moines, Ia, Feb. 11.-Plans for
grand banquet here the evening of
Jefferson day, April 2, have been an
nounced by leading silver democrats.
The affair will be nominally open to
all democrats, but in effect will be
closed to all but Kansas City platform
supporters, as all the speakers will
be pronounced silver advocates. w. j.
Bryan will speak on Democracy"
The banquet will be of chief inn
portance, as it will be made the occa-
sion for forming strong organiza.
ton of the silver democrats of the
state. The avowed purpose is to re-
capture control of the democratic
organization of Iowa, nominate Gen.
James b. Weaver, silver man, for
governor, adopt platform indorsing
the Kansas City platform, and to
pave the way to sending solid silver
delegation to the next national con-
vention.
The action of the silver leaders has
been taken with the advice of Bryan
himself. He has informed G. +. Rine-
hart, prominent silver democrat of
Newton, that in next weeks Com
moner he will outline plan for the
organization of the silver democrats
in the different states, for the pur-
pose of holding sway over the party
