self have been at odds concerning anti
| trust legislation, and the other day, when
the speaker called upon him with General
Greenville M. Dodge, and Secretary Root
was present, he took occasion to express
himself with a good deal of feeling on the
! subject. 1t was the first time he had
seen Henderson after the passage of the
t, Elkins bill through the house which COM
pleted the antitrust program Of the adj
ministration and the president and the
| speaker exchanged congratulations upon
| the event.
| The president himself told me of this
yesterday and said that he wanted the
public, and particularly the people of Iowa
and General Henderson's district, to know
| that he felt under personal we'll as
official obligations to the speaker for the
cordial support he had received from him
in carrying out the legislative program.
! He told me that he had thanked Hender-
| son personally for his loyal cooperation,
and had congratulated him upon the sub
stantial record of actual and important
| legislation with which he had been iden-
tilted during his several terms speaker
and particularly the good work he had
| done during the last two or three weeks.
Speaker Henderson reciprocated the
presidents sentiments and said
| 1.-THE president knows of my record on
this trust business and the indefatigable
efforts have made to bring it all about,
and if I have won the affection Of any
/ public man during my service in the house
/ I think have won those Of the president.
i I have been equally fortunate in having
. had an opportunity Of judging him and of

have in dealing confidentially with those

MUCH RESERVE In PARIS
The Panama Company Is Saying
Nothing About the q. S.
Acceptance.

Paris, Feb. 21.-The officials of the Pan
ANA Canal company are maintaining a
frigid reserve concerning their plans. One
Of the chief officers said it was considered
of the utmost Importance, owing to the
delicate stage Of the negotiations, not to
throw anything into the discussion which
might unfavorably affect the results.
At the company's headquarters great ac-
tivity has been shown since the receipt
of the advices from Attorney General
Knox accepting the company's offer for
the sale of it's property subject to the
ratification Of the United States senate.
Persons in position to know the course
Of the negotiations do not consider the
attitude of the company antagonistic to
the position Of the United States.
The officials continue to take an OPP
timistic view of the successful close OF
the transaction, as they consider that the
position Of the company is such that the
purchase can be consummated by an ex-
ira session Of the senate in case no &C.
ton is taken before March 4.

Long Standing Grievances Are to Be
Settled by the Compro-

All the Interests Watching Eagerly
for the Terms of Secretary
Wyndhams Bill.

London. Feb. 21.-As the result of inter-
views with the Duke Of Abercorn, Lord
Dunraven. John Redmond and others, the
Associated Press is able to announce au-
thoritatively that the following is the
situation to-day regards the plan Of
settling the Irish land question:
All the interested parties-nationalists,
unionists, landlords and tenants, are now
for the first time in the history of Ire
land in agreement upon the lines of the
Dublin conference. They have also Joined
forces in bringing pressure on the gov
eminent to make Secretary Wyndham S
Forthcoming bill agree in spirit with the
recommendations Of the conference and
all Indications point to the bill conced-
ing those demands.
1t will be introduced in parliament at
the end of March and if passed will &C
complsh what Mr. Redmond and Lord
Dunraven agree in saying will be one OF
the most extraordinary peaceful revolu-
tions ever effected
If Mr.. 'Wyndham, for lack of funds or
other causes, fails to meet the views OF
the conference, he will have on his hands.
to quote Mr.. Redmond, IAN Ireland such
as the world has never seem. In this
view such q strong supporter Of the gov
ernment as the Duke of Abercorn con-
ours. Mr.. Redmond adds:

it was deemed desirable and important
that punishment In all cases should De
limited to fines as likely, on the whole.
to promote the purpose Of the law and AID
the conviction Of the guilty.
In the third place, under the OLD law,
a shipper was not indictable for taking
a rebate unless such rebate effected an
actual discrimination Yin his favor. In
other words, it was not sufficient to prove
that a concession had been made from
the tariff by rebate or other device; It
was necessary also to show that some
other shipper paid the tariff rate or a
higher rate for like and contemporaneous
service. This in most cases was out or
the question, and especially so in the most
fragrant instances, because then there
would ordinarily be no person paying the
tariff rate. For example, take the dis
closures to the commission about a year
ago relating to dressed meats and pack
ing house products, where it appeared that
the rates on the traffic had for long
time practically been several cents less
that the tariff. Yet it was the unanimous
testimony that all the packers got sub
stantially or identically the same rates.
1.-THE new law corrects this defect, for
such 1t was, by making the tariff the
standard Of laWfulness, and departure
from that standard criminal offense
| without proof that some other shipper at
the same time and for the same service
paid higher rate.
"a fourth feature of the Elkins law is Of
| a different character, though deemed of
much Importance. The question whether
federal courts have jurisdiction to pre-
vent sate-cutting by injunction was an
open question under the old law. The
Elkins law settles that question by con
ferring the jurisdiction in express terms
| These are the principal features Of the
new law, all of which are excellent and
will doubtless prove valuable, and it does
not detract from their merits that they
have been repeatedly and earnestly rec
commended by the commission"

out of business because they paid farmers
a much greater price for grain than the
association is willing to pay.
1.-The grain dealers of Chicago recog-
nize that a great wrong is being perpe-
trated," said a member of one OF the lead
ing commission firms Of the city yester-
day. but it has seemed impossible to do
ANYTHING to remedy matters. The organ
ization is known as THE National Grain
Dealers association Federated with 1t
are state declarations in Illinois, Iowa, Ne
braska and Kansas.
1.-The association refuses to allow com
petitors in the field. When grain IS
started to this city by Independent DEAL
ers. a letter is sent to the consgnee
warming him not to handle the shipment.
The penalty threatened is the cutting or
of the commission firm from dealing with
any member of the association, ana SO
widespread is it's membership, no COM
mission house dare defy it, and the small
dealer finds hlmSef Win no hldihet III
his purchases"
Here is a. sample Of the communications
received directly from the state branches
of the association:

Grain Dealers Association does not rec
ognize farmers elevator companies we
shall use all legitimate means to protect
| our members from such competition
competition that if successful means thai

| State our position plainly that you may

Farmers Elevator companies as you may

! $1,000 commission annually for a number

business, but for presuming to do bushes!

'.Now word to the officers and en-
listed men Of the army. The last two or
three years have witnessed a notable
awakening in people to the well-being Of
the army. Our people are understanding
as never before the fact that the army,
like the navy. will do well in war mainly
in proportion as it has been prepared
well in peace; that after the war has
begun it is too late for us to prepare for
the victory. Defeat will come inevitably
and surely if the preparation is put off
until the war begins, and victory will
come ii it has been prepared for in time
of peace and on no other terms.

is now closing we have seen the first
stride taken in putting the national guard,

Of efficiency, the first long stride taken on
the lines marked out by Washington him
self, the first successful effort made to
put into effect Washington's plea which
for ITO years was disiregarded by our
people.
''And again, the first long stride has
been taken toward the modernization, to-

reforms. They don't come in jump. All

ttAnd now these great steps have been

army, and it rests with the army itself to
profit by what has been done.

We're in the game!
Shot and shell!

the attorney general and others expect it
to do it will make railroad rates the same
to every shipper. There shallSbe no more
discrimination between the large and the
small shipper. Mr.. Councilman, with his
hundred million bushels of wheat will have
to pay the same rate as Farmer Smith
with his one carload, or his fifty bushels.
Length Of haul and amount Of freight be-
ing the same, the bills will be alike to
everybody, and there will be no secret
rebates, or drawbacks And the rate will
be the one which the law compels the
abroad to print on a large sheet and post
in the station. The butcher who kills
one cow and sends it from Chicago to New
York will have to pay the same price as
Swift or Armour pay per cow. The man
| at Hazleton, Pa, with half a ton Of COAL
| will be able to get it to New York or Chi
cagO at the same rate paid by George
! Baer or Pierpont Morgan on their thous-
! ands Of tons. In other words the small
man is to have an equal chance with the
| trust in getting his products transported
over the great common carriers.
| When this order Of things becomes a
reality-and the small man learns that it
is certainty and IS to remain so-there
will be lots of business and lots of com

| 1.-THE Elllins law is designed primarily

provisions Of the act to regulate COM
