THE PUBLICITY FEATURE.

Washington, Feb. 10.--The Depart
ment of Commerce bill contains pro-
vision calling for reports concerning
the condition and operation of corpora
tions doing interstate and foreign BUSH
ness, which is called a publicity pro-
vision.
While this is by no means as strong
as the Democrats have desired It
should be most of them took the posi-
ton that it is better than nothing, and
for that reason supported the confer
ence report, just as they supported the
Littlefield antitrust bill, when they
had demonstrated that they could get
nothing better. This publicity provision
of the Department of Commerce bill
is the first section of the antitrust
legislation to pass both houses.
1t was anticipated that some of the
loudest antitrust takers, on the Re
publican side, like Littlefield, would
oppose the conference report, their
plan being to hold this up in the House
with a view to forcing action in the
Senate upon the Littlefield bill. Presi-
dent Roosevelt was represented as be-
ing favorable to this plan, but If ever
determined upon 1t was abandoned be-
fore the matter came up in the House
this morning.

BEN TlLLMAN GOES.
senator Went to Columbia Jail and
Illustrates That Blood Is Thicker
Than Water.

nun
Columbia, S. c., Feb. 1O.-There has
been considerable specializing as to
what part Senator Tillman would take
in the case of his nephew. now in Rich
land county Jail, under the charge of
the murder of Editor Gonzales.
1t has been known that for years the
Senator and his nephew have been on
bad terms. Only a few days ago Sena-
tor Tillman wrote a letter, which has
been published, in which he said there
were two kinds of Tillmans, and that
his nephew had opposed him politically
for the last ten years.
In the last few days j. H. Tillman
has appealed to his uncle, and as a
probable result, the Senator stopped
over in Columbia on his way to Edge
field; for he would not have come from
Washington for the purpose. His
movements were known to but few peo-
pie.
He drove directly to the Jail and
spent several hours with his nephew,
going over his line of defense with him
and making suggestions. 1t is given
out by the attorneys for ]. H. Tillman
that the Senator promised to give him
any assistance in his power.

ROOSEvELT'S CONFERENCES.

Washington, Feb. 10.-Dlscussion of
the antitrust legislation was continued
at the White House to-day. President
Roosevelt had several conferences with
senators and representatives concern
ing pending measures, the discussion
revolving about the Nelson publicity
amendment to the Department of Com
merce bill, the Elkins rebate bill. and
the Littlefeld bill, which was passed
by the House on Saturday.
Early in the day the President had
a conference with Representative Lit
tlefield. The latter 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, it does
not go so far as his measure goes,
and not so far as Congress ought to
20 in the matter.
Later Senators Spooner and Aid
rich had extended talks with the Presl-
dent about trust legislation. With
other Congressional callers the Presi-
dent discussed the subject, urging up
on all, II is said, the desirability that
Congress should enact the Nelson
amendment, and the Elkins rebate
measure. 1t is the consensus of opin-
ion among members of Congress that
both Of those measures will be en-
acted into law, and that 1t is scarce
ly likely that Congress will go further
with antitrust legislation at the pres
ent session.
During several days the President
has been comforting, as opportunity Of
fered with prominent members of the
House about the Elkins rebate bill.
The President has also had confer
ence with Speaker Henderson concern
ing the bin. 1t is understood that while
the Speaker is not wholly in sympathy
with the measure, he will not stand In
the way of it's consideration by the
House. 1t is said upon excellent au-
thority that the Speaker and the Com
mittee on Rules, of which he is the ex-
officio head, will authorize. If neces-
sary, a special rule providing for the
consideration of the bill as ii has been
reported by Mr.. Hepburn's committee.
Such action, II is asserted. would prac-
tica1ly mean the passage of the meas
ure by the House and its enactment
into law.

BARBAR0US SYSTEM
OF FL0GGING SOLDIERS.
sensational Disclosures Made in
London by Retired Rear
Admiral COchrane

London, Feb. 10.-Rear Admiral Ba-
sill Cochrane. retired. in letter. pub
lished by the London Times to-day,
makes astounding revelations regarding
the ''barbarous system" prevailing
among the Guards regiments, for the
punishment of subalterns who are found
guilty of social or military offenses.
According to Admiral Cochrane the
colonel of one battalion has been In the
habit of handing over offending off,
GERS to the senior subaltern, the latter
summons a court-martial, at which the
attendance of all the subalterns is ex-
acted, and the sentence is almost in
Variably fiogging. This is administered
on the bare back. after the removal of
all the clothing, and from six to forty
blows with cane are given with such
severity that the lower number is sufd-
Client to draw blood. All the officers
present, even the most intimate friends
OF the victim. are compelled to admin
lister their share of blows.
The Admiral cites the instance of a
young officer who tainted after receiv-
ing forty strokes, and he also refers to
the case of his own nephew, who is not
named but who is clearly Capt. LeVe-
son Cover, who, for an unintentional
military fault, was tried and logged.
Subsequently, according to Admiral
Cochrane, his nephew was punished
with great severity by Maj. Gen. Oil
plant formerly commander of the
Grenadier Guards for petty fault,
and who, in consequence of continued
ill treatment, resigned his commission
last week.
When Lord Roberts, the commander
in-chief, was informed of these oc-
curences, through relatives, he Sc
verely repiimanded Col Ricardo COM
mander of the Grenadier Guards, and
placed Lieut.. Col. Kinloch, of the same
regiment, on half pay.
That such revolving custom
could prevail among Officers and gen.
tlemen," or could be submitted to by
full grown men, has caused a very
great sensation. The whole subject
will be fully aired in Parliament.

Mr.. BOWEN ACCEPTS
ENGLAND'S PROTOCOL
Germany Getting Her Paper i'm
Shape, but Italy is Backward.

Germany Getting Her Paper I'm
Shape, but Italy is Backward.
Washington, Feb. 1O-Great Brit
aims protocol has been formally ac-
copied by Mr.. Bowen for Venezuela
The German and Italian conventions
are still undergoing revision, but as
surances are given in authoritative
quarters that they eventually will be
made to conform in essential respects
to that of the British ambassador.
Owing to the illness of the British ann
bassador, Mr.. Bowen called at the en-
bassy to-day, and personally slgnified
his approval of the agreement to the
ambassador. He there presented his
formal note of acceptance, and it has
been cabled to the London Foreign
Office.
1t appears that the insertion in the
German protocol of the provision for
advance payment of the original $780,
900, demanded of President Castro in
the German ultimatum. was the result
of a misunderstanding on the part of
the German Foreign Office of certain
steps in the negotiations here. Through
the activity of the German minister.
Baron Speck Won Sternburg, this point
is being cleared up.
The Italian ambassadors instructions
are such that he can make little head
way until he knows what is contained
in the German protocol. He has, how
ever made a rough draft of his con-
vention, and it will take only a short
while after the completion of the Ger
man convention. for Signor Mayor des
Planches to put the finishing touches
to his protocol

DREYFUS REVIVED.

Paris, Feb. 10.-The Socialist group
mally decided to hold two meetings to
consider the proposition of M. Jaures
to renew the Dreyfus agitation, in con-
nection with the hearing of the matter
of the verification of the election by
NJ. Seyveton, Nationalist.
Owing to the strength of this group
the action taken is regarded as sig
nificant of there being a considerable
element in the chamber favorable to
reopening the,case. In a published in
terview NJ. Jaures says he learned
from the Nationalist organs that the
War Office had in it's possession a doc
ument tending to establish the inno-
cence of Dreyfus. When the time came
he would explain what he knew with
out weakness or reticence

Morgan Says There is Peaceful PO-
IiticaI Blockade ON Statehood Bill.
Washington. Feb. 10.-The statehood
bill again came up in the Senate to-
day and Senator Morgan spoke for the
omnibus measure.
In the course of his remarks he re-
ferred to the trusts, which he said
have been kept back, and will be kept
back until it is too late for discussion
regarding them.
The time of the Senate was being
wasted, Senator Morgan said, on ac-
count of peaceful political blockade"
on the statehood bill, when more i'm
portant measures were awaiting ac-
ton.
The whole world knew Senator Nor
gan said, that the trust bill was no
more than "mush poultice" to be put
on the people to alleviate pain. The
object was not to defeat the admission
of the territories as states, but some
thing else lies behind it, for which
there is no excuse.

Washington, Feb. 10.-The notable
feature of the general debate in the
House to-day was a speech by Mr.. De-
Almond on the Hanna bill to pension
eX-slaves.
He spoke in a sarcastic vein, but the
subject assumed a serious phase when
Mr.. Richardson. of Tennessee. stated
that Adventures in the South were
using the bill to impose on ignorant,
credulous negroes, and called upon Mr..
Cannon to give assurance that the pas
sage of such a measure was not con-
templated. This assurance Mr.. Can
non gave.
Mr.. DeArmond of Missouri denomi-
mated the bill recently introduced by
Senator Hanna to pension the ex-s1aves

trend of politics." which was more
valuable as a piece of political maneu-
vering than as a piece of prospective
legislation"
Branded as Farce.
The introducer of the bill, he said,
announced that he was not a candidate
for the presidency, but from the same
authority came the announcement that
there were no trusts. The exact facts
could, he said, be balanced in the pub
lie mind after a study of both state
ments. The negro delegate, he said,
was an important factor in Republican
national conventions, and there was
nothing like making preparations in
good time.
1t was an interesting game, and those
not concerned could watch it with
equanimity. 1t was farce, he said,
but still farces had their solemn as

the old negroes in their cabins in the
South giving up their small earnings

turn for relief to their natural pro-
fecters--the'.Vhite people of the South.

reply, treated Mr.. iDeArmond's remarks
lightly, calling attention to the fact
that Senator Hanna's bill had been in

4 ChimericaI Scheme.
But Mr.. Richardson of Tennessee put
a different view on the matter. He
stated seriously that companies were
already being formed, and circulars be-
ing sent to ignorant people, by unscrup-
ulous Adventures, and he thought both
sides should join in an. assurance to
them not to invest their quarters and
dimes in this chimerical scheme.
Mr.. Cannon responded that all should
understand. rich and poor. white and
black, cultured and ignorant, that the
government promised to all alike equal
ity before the law, and equality of OPP
portunity, and under it each must work
out his own salvation.
Mr.. DeArmond was not satisfied with
this statement, but asked for more
specific assurance. and in reply Mr..
Cannon stated with emphasis that if
the ignorant were being imposed upon
they should be undeceived-thati in his
Judgment no such bill could or would
pass,
