AGAINST THECOMPROMISE
HOLDS TRACK ELEVATION BILL
GIVES TOO MUCH POWER.
Legislative Committee of Commercial
Club Will Send It's Report to Sem
ate Committee To-Day.

The Senate committee on affairs of In
dianapolis will meet this afternoon at l
o'clock at Room no, Statehouse. to hear
expressions on the compromise track eleva-
ton bill, which passed the House Satur-
day. Senator Matson said yesterday that
there was little time to consider a new
bill or to amend the one passed by the
House, so that little could be done except
to report in favor of the bill or to recon-
mend it's indefinite postponement. 1t is
predicted that the committee will not make
a unanimous report.
The chief interest at to-day's meeting
will be the presentation by President Cav
in, of the Commercial Club, of the report
of the legislative committee of the club.
This report was prepared by the commit
tee and was intended for submission to the
directors of the club, but as they will have
no meeting before the Senate committee
meets President Gavin will deliver the re-
port solely as the expression of opinion by
the committee. Augustus L. Mason, Lewis
c. Walker and j. c. Adams are members of
this committee.
The committee report, which is of con-
siderable length, will take the position that
it is against wisdom to pass the bill agreed
to by the city officials and the railroads.
because 1t puts too much power in the
hands of the city officials opens the doors
to temptation and simply sends them out on
a trading expedition. The report will also
urge that the proposed legislation is wholly
inadequate. President Gavin will present
the resolution passed by the directors of
the Commercial Club about a month ago,
urging that whatever legislative action is
taken be in the direction of giving the city
adequate power to deal with the grade
crossing situation and abate the dangers.
This resolution was introduced by Hilton U.
Brown and unanimously passed.

ENTHUSIASTIC OVER HIS RIDE

Mr.. Roosevelt Said, Being a Member
Of FIremen's Union, He Ought Help
to Fire the Furnace, But He Did
Not.
Pittsburg, April 2.-President Roose-
velt viewed he scenery around the IA
nous Horseshoe Curve yesterday after
noon from a seat in the cab of loco
motive attached to his special train,
and after a ride of about so miles ex-
pressed himself as delighted with his
experience. When his special reached
Altoona the president alighted from his
car and walked rapidly to the front OF
the train. Two engines were coupled
TO it, ready to pull the heavy cars over
the Allegheny mountains. and the pres
ident shook hands with the crews Of
each He then climbed into the cab OF
the rear engine. No. 24O8. In the cab
with him were Secretary Loeb, Train
master A. Keiser. Special Engineer
Robert McLaren. the regular engineer,
H. T. Mccormick. and Fireman H. w.
Hunter. AS he took his seat the presi-
dent remarked that, being a member OF
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men, he thought he ought to take his
turn at feeding the furnace, but he did
not do so. When Gallitzin, the crest
of the mountain, was reached, the front
locomotive was detached from the train
and the run to Seward was made with
one engine. Here the president climbed
down from his lofty seat, and after
shaking hands with the engineers and
firemen, went back to his car, rather
dusty and grimy, but enthusiastic over
his novel ride.
While the presidents engine occu'
pied the second place on the train, q
tunnel seven-eighths of a mile In
length was traversed, and although the
cab was protected by windows and
doors, quite a quantity Of smoke found
its way in. No record-brealzing time
was made while the president sat in
the cab, the speed Of the train not
reaching over As miles an hour.
Outside of his ride on the engine, the
president passed an uneventful day
devoting a large portion of it to read
ing Brief stops were made at Balti
more, Harrisburg and Altoona, but only
at one place did the president make &
speech. A large crowd met his train al
Harrisburg, and although no speecl
was scheduled for this place, Mr.

address, which was received with man!

The news OF the change in the SUMS

1t is said that an order was issued by the

them. No explanations were made, and
the men say they do not know for what
purpose the carbon copies are to be used.
The fact that the Suns staff was re-
