CARRIERS PUSH A GOOD THING"
Letter from the Rural Delivery Mems
President That May Cause Him
Some Trouble.

Washington, March 15.-While the
house was considering the postofiice
appropriation Crumpacker read let
ter from +. III. Cunningham, president
Of the National Carriers association,
urging rural delivery carriers to tele-
graph Immediately to their members
of congress to vote TO increase the sal
aries of rural free delivery carriers.
The letter to carriers gives a form Of
telegram to be sent to members and
says: Il believe we have got things
coming our way, and will succeed if
you do your part. l understand the
situation, ard the department will take
no notice of any work you do in re-
gard to pushing our BILL"
Crumpacker said that he was not
opposed to increasing the salaries Of
carriers, but he believed this fulfill
ment of the prophecy of ex-Represent-
ative Loud that these carriers would
organize great political machine and
dictate to congress. He added that
he would refer the matter to the prop
er authorities.

SCOUTS IN COLLISION
Russian Report of an Ambuscade
into Which Fell a jap
anese Patrol.
ONE OF THE JAPS Is KILLED
Port Arthur Still Flies the Cars
Flag-Makaroff Said to Have
Blocked the Harbor.

St Petersburg, March 15.-General
Zilinski telegraphs as follows under
Sundays date: "On March our patrol
discovered four Of the enemy's posts
on the Chong Cheng Ang river. and a
troop of cavalry acting as scouts near
Patetchen, northwest of Anju- A jap
anese cavalry patrol fell into an am
buscade prepared by our patrol, and
was dispersed, losing one killed. The
japanese left behind them a quantity
Of guncotton and some swords and
blankets"
Russia still Hold Port Arthur.
London, March 15.-From two points
the rumor that Russia had abandoned
or japanese captured Port Arthur is
denied. A dispatch from st. Peters
burg, dated March II, noon, says:
There is no truth in the rumors that
the Russians have abandoned Port
Arthur. Admiral Abaza, secretary Of
the commission on Far Eastern af-
fairs, authorizes the Associated Press
to deny the story. He says the sit
uation at Port Arthur is unchanged
and nothing of Importance has oc-
Cured there in the last twenty-fOur
hours A dispatch. from Tien-Tsin
corrobOrates the foregoing.
Russians Block Port Arthur Harbor.
London, March ia correspondent
of The Daily Mail at New Chwang
says that after the removal of the
battleship RetyiZan four Russian
steamers, the Harbin, the Hailar, the
Ninguta and the Sungari were an
chored at the mouth of the entrance
to Port Arthur in proper position and
sunk, leaving only a small channel
available, Vice Admiral AIakaroff hav-
ing previously ordered the whole fleet
to remain outside with steam up,
economy in coal being unnecessary.
"News of First Importance
This dispatch, which is prominently
displayed by The Daily Mail, and
which the correspondent says is ION
Russian Information" is, if true, news
of the first Importance. confirming the
idea that Vice Admiral Makaroff will
adopt the offensive and make des-
perate attempt to bring together Rus
sia's scattered naval forces or endeay-
or tc infict damage upon tie japanese
navy.
The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1904-03-17

tom must be investigated" Both Re-
publicans and Democrats, he said, had
declared that they would tear the roof
off the old thing" and he inquired
"what did you do? The house got
scared and turned tail" Amid laugh
ter and applause he chided the men,
bers of the house with having started
out to investigate the department, and
having wound up by having the de-
partment investigate them.
"That was great coup on the part
Of the department" he said, with sar-
casm. He poked fun at the Republicans
for having so readily yielded to the
persuasions of the party leaders and
voted against a departmental investi-
CATION, adopting instead "a miserable
resolution investigation yourselves"
The Republican organization, he said,
was the finest in the world. There
is nothing like it." he continued, from
Julius Caesar down to General Roose-
velt," which latter remark provoked
much laughter.
Townsend of Michigan gave notice
of an amendment he would offer to
the bill to increase the salaries Of ru-
raj free delivery carriers to $500 a
year. Cochran criticised Cleveland,
Mckinley and Roosevelt for using
naval vessels as private yachts" and
the departments, for the number Of
horses and carriages they used and
the amounts expended for ''iunkies,
brass buttons and the like.
Hughes of New Jersey vigorously
upheld the right of letter carriers
through their members in congress
to ask for fair treatment.

Albion, Ind, March 15. = Charles
Black, a prosperous young farmer re-
siding near here, was stricken with
paralysis upon his return home after
delivering to the Jail authorities for
safe-keeping a brother who had sud-
denly become insane. The condition
Of the two sons SO preyed upon the
mind Of the father that he, too. is
bordering upon insanity, with grave
fears as to his recovery. The father
is assessor of his township.

two thus becoming practically conseli-
dated in a holding company, the princi-
pal object being to prevent competi-
ton. NO scheme or device could GER
tainly more effectively come within
the prohibition of the antitrust law.
and it is within the meaning of the
act a trust"
Justice Harlan said that the conten-
ton that the law Is an interference
with the rights of the individual states
by which the companies are incor-
porated was not well founded. In
such cases. he said. the authority of
congress is supreme. He declared it to
be unnecessary to determine the right
Of owners of railroad stock to sell the
property. Nor was 1t true, he added,
that the right Of the Securities com
pany to own and hold railroad stock
is the only question involved. Such
contentious are wide of the mark =
mere men of straw. All that the gov
ernment complains Of is the existence
of a corporation to repress commerce,
and it is not concerned with the other
points.
Justice Harlan said that in this day
there should be no doubt of the COM
plete power of congress to control in
terstate commerce. All appropriate
means might be resOrted to for that
purpose. All the prior trust 'cases
were in support Of that con-
tention. Whether free eand unrestrained
competition was wise, he said, was
an economic question with which the
court need not concern itself; the ques-
ton was that of statutory law.
The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1904-03-17

Washington, March 16.-The senate
passed the fortification appropriation
bill after three hours discussion Of
the amendment authorizing the pur-
chase Of an experimental torpedo boat
and the provision for the purchase Of
sites of defense works in the Hawaiian
islands, both Of which were agreed
to. An executive session was held.
During the discussion Of the post
Office appropriation bill in the house
the recent work of the postof1ce de-
partmentregarding congressional solic-
itation Of clerk hire allowances and
rental of quarters to the government
was again brought up. The bill was
still pending at adjournment.

FREAK OF SOME FACTORY BOYS
they Find the Wedding viands and Turn
aCharavari i'm a Feast of Good
Things.

Charlottesville, Ind, Mas>A 16. -
Oliver Canine and Miss Cinderella MI
Ter were married at thefurnished home
prepared by the bridegroom, but the
merry wedding guests, whose antici-
pations of bounteous feast had been
high, were disappointed. The salads
and sandwiches, the ice cream and
cake had all been placed on the back
porch during the ceremony, and when
the caterer went to serve them they
were gone.
1t developed that large party of
factory boys had come to the place
with the intention of giving the couple
charavari Eefore they began the
noise. however, they discovered the
viands on the porch and quietly de-
camped with them.

GOVERNMENT HAD A CLOSE SHAVE
Deciding Vote by a Justice Who Had
Views of His Own.

Deciding Vote by Justice Who Had
Views of His Own.
Very soon after Justice Harlan had
concluded his presentation of the case
it developed that there not only had
been a very close shave for the gov
errnent but that one of the members
Of the court who cast his vote with
the majority entertained opinions of
his own, which fact rendered the di-
vision all the more marked ard inter-
eSting. This was Justice Brewer, who,
while he concurred in the result, an
nounced in an independent opinion of
his own that he held the view that
previous antitrust decisions had been
more sweeping than was Jusuned.
On this point he said: Congress
did not intend by that act 1.-THE anti
trust law] to reach and destroy those
minor contracts in partial restraint of
trade which the long course of de-
cisionS at common law had affirmed
were reasonable and ought to be up
held. The purpose rather was to add
statutory prohibition with prescribed
penalties and remedies to nullify those
contracts which were in direct re-
straint of trade. unreasonable and
against public policy"
He also held that the general Lam
guage of the act is limited by the
power which the individual has to
mapage his own property and deter
mine the place and manner of its in
vestment, saying on this point: Free
dom of action in these respects is
among the inalienable rights of every
citizen. If, applying this to the pres
ent case. it appeared that Mr.. Hill
was the owner of a majority of the
stock in the Great NortherI Railway
company he could not by any act Of
congress be deprived of the right of
investing his surplus means in the
purchase of stock of the Northern Pa
cific railway, although such purchase
might tend TO vest in him through that
ownership a control over both compa-
nies. In other words the right which
all other citizens had of purchasing
Northern Pacific stock could not be
denied to him by congress because of
bis ownership of stock in the Great
Northern company"

FROM THE FAR EAST
PORT ARTHUR STORIES FAKES
Makaroff's Fleet Is Missing-Noth-
ing Sensational Happens.

ST. Petersburg, March 16.-From the
highest official quarter the Associated
Press has received information that
there is absolutely no foundation for
the rumors persistently sent out from
Toxic that the Russians are abandon
ing Port Arthur. 1T is the veriest
nonsense" said the official informant
Of the Associated Press.
London, March 16.-The latest re-
port from Toxic says that il is be-
lieved there that the Russian Port Ar
thur fleet has left that harbor for
parts unknown, probably Vhdivostok.
Japanese scouts can see nothing of
MakarOff's squadron in the harbOr at
Port Arthur. All the Russian ships
are inside the harbor nOw-if they
have not left, as repOrted-the Ret
viZan having been towed in last week,
and it would not be easy to see them
from the outside.
Chemulpo, March 16.-A miner, a
citizen of the United States, returning
from the mines at Unsan, was ar
rested north Of Ping Yang by Jap
anese ON suspicion of being Russian
spy. He was speedily released when
his identity was established.
The story that Makaroff had sunk
ships in the entrance to Port Arthur
harbor is emphatically denied at st.
Petersburg.
A correspondent of The Daily Teis-
graph at Yinkow says that the jap
anese again attacked Port Arthur
March II as challenge for Vice Adj
miral Makarof to come out and fight.
The Russian casualties amounted to
300 killed or wounded. The corre-
sp0ndent adds that this is authentic.

proved the treaty."

Chicago, March 15.-All records for
