BAD SHOWING FOR
BURTON IS MADE
Continued From First Page.

not wish to antagonize the department.
He also said that he had consulted
several of his colleagues in the senate
and they assured him that his connec-
ton with the Rialto company was le-
gal and that many senators had IN
creased their incomes in similar ways.
Senator Burton said that he had lost
$4,000 recently for which he was not
legally responsible, but which he wish
ed to repay, and that his fees would
revert to that USE"
The first winess today was Joseph
P. Carr, who was a clerk in the en-
ploy of the Rialto company. On March
26, 1903. witness drew a check for $500
in favor of Burton, cashed it and hand
ed five $100 bills to Vice President w.
D. Mahaney, in whose room Burton
was sitting. The check was offered In
evidence.
Vice President Mahaney testified
that on March 26, 1908, he paid Burton
$500. On Dec. Is, 1902, in the Willard
hotel in Washington, witness was pres
ent when President Dennis showed
Burton a copy of an indictment re-
turned against Dennis by the federal
grand jury. Discussion of the indict-
ment continued several days, result
ing in the decision that there was not
much danger to Dennis in the indict-
ment, but because of Senator Burton's
position it was deemed best for him
not to appear as general counsel in de-
Tense of Dennis.
On March 26, 1903, in the Rialto
building, when Mahaney paid Burton
the $500, he and Burton discussed the
advisability Of Burton still remaining
in the employ of the Rialto company
Burton said if the Rialto company had
any letters from him it would be just
as well to destroy them, as, owing to
his position, his motives might be mis-
construed.
Witness said he (Mahaney) thereup-
on told Burton he had two of Burton's
letters on his desk and destroyed them
by tearing them up. One of the letters
destroyed, witness stated, related to
telegram sent by Burton to the Rialto
company from Washington that S. M.
MCGOWAN, Indian agent, who was in
Indian territory, had made complaint
against the company.

HIS STAND
ON EIGHT HOUR DAY
Oliver Crosby Says He Favors
1t, but Doesn't Want 1t on
the Statutes.

President Oliver Crosby, of the
American Hoist and Derrick company,
says the interview with him in We'd
nesday mornings Clio b e did not
make clear his attitude on the eight
hour day. He says:
wish most emphatically to say that
am not opposed to an eight-hour work
ing day, and in my remarks before the
congressional committee clearly stated
this fact. A shorter working day Is with
out doubt In process of evolution, and
shall be glad to see this condition come
ABOUT In the natural order of events. The
tendency all over the country is for fewer
hours work, and there is no reason why
workmen should be compelled to work
longer hours than people in offices.
Two years ago our company voluntarily
decreased the working day from ten hours
minutes per day. We did this voluntarily
which shows my position towards short
en1ng the working day for the working
men.
Wants 1t to Come Naturally.
There is a vast difference between hav-
usual business sequence of events and
having congress pass laws compelling
their contractors to stop absolutely when
eight hours work has been accomplished.
Inc Dill before congress provides for
line OF So every time man working on
a government contract exceeds eight
hours work In any one day. Every one
familiar with the working of steel or
iron foundry must know the impossibility
OF finishing work absolutely at a certain
time. Unforeseen accidents will cause un-
avoidable delays, but under the wording
Of the eight-hour bill foundry running
fifteen minutes over eight hours in any one
day would be subject to SIS fine for every
man at work. Most agreements with
labor organizations provide for time and
a half to be paid for overtime. Should
the eight-hour bill becomes law, it would
be absolutely impossible for shop doing
government work to work over eight hours
for time and a half or any other rate of
pay.
Couldn't Take Government Work.
The great number of delays caused in
performing government work frequently
neceSS1tate working every hour possible at
the last of the contract, in order to COM
plete the work on time and avoid a pen
atty which is always attached in case of
time specified. A factory should be al
lowed to complete their contracts in the
most practicable manner, and when an
emergency arises should be allowed to
work as many hours per day as the men
and the company can agree upon.
Mr.. O'Connel and Mr.. Gompers, repre-
senting organized labor in Washington,
made strong statements, showing that
the working day is being decreased.
Manufacturers all over the country rec
ognize this fact, and are perfectly willing
that it should go on, provided it takes
place in the ordinary course of business.
Inasmuch as a shorter working period
accomplished, there is no good reason,
and in my opinion it is a dangerous prop
osition. for congress to interfere with
the natural course of events.

FRYE BILL IS TO BE
REPORTED .FAVORABLY
Two Republicans and Three Democrats
Vote Against Such Action.

WASHINGTON, d. c., March "a
The house committee on merchant
marine and fisheries today authorized
a favorable report on the Frye bill

United States to the Philippine islands
July 1, 1905, without amendment.
The report was authorized by a vote
of Z to S, two Republicans and three
Democratic members making up the
minority vote A motion to postpone
the operation of the laws to 1909, made
by Mr.. Lucking, was lost on a strictly
party vote. Another motion making
the time 1906 resulted in tie vote.
The bill was then voted on as it pass

DISCUSSES SCHOOLS
Patrons Differ on Free Text
Book Question.

That all of the patrons of the public
schools are not in favor of free text
books was made evident at the meet
ing last night in the Rice school build
ing of the Rice Smith German School
union. A month previous a like vote
had been taken at the German school
and but one person present was regis
tered against free books. At last even
ing's session twenty-six voted for the
proposition and eighteen against it.
Many of those present failed to ex-
press their preference. This does not
indicate change of opinion, but shows
that different people attend the meet
ings at the different schools.
Among the subjects discussed at last
nights meeting was the feasibility OF
admitting children to the kindergarten
at the age Of four years. Most Of the
speakers opposed the idea, holding that
the school children are pushed through
school too fast as it is. Such manual
training as is given in the grades was
upheld by some and opposed by others,
Rev. C. J. Heuer declaring his belief
that teachers competent to teach man
ual training and able to take care OF
their other duties are hard to find.
A subject that aIIraCIeQ coHSluerdDie
discussion was whether the parents
should always take for granted the
statements of pupils as to occurrences
in school, and, reversing the idea,
whether the reports of the teachers as
to the pupils should be accepted as
evidence of their progress or the re-
verse.
The next meeting of the union will
occur in the Smith school. The Off
GERS are: John M. Boxell, president;
John Turnbull, vice president; James
Drtl1nmond,- secretary; Lars Rosness,
treasurer. Together with the officers
the executive committee is composed
of the principals of the three schools:
Prof. H. W. Slack, Rice school; Mrs.
H. D. MCGEE Smith school; Miss Liz
beth M. Butler, German school.
