TRUSTS ARE THEIR IDOLS
When Combines Cannot Be Accommo-
dated Republican Leaders
Are Unhappy.

The Tawney tobacco bill has ripped
open the republican party lines in the
WAYS and means committee. to the great
disgust OF Chairman Payne. Hetold tse
republican members that he thought II
was foolish for the committee TO attempt
TO do any business at this session and
useless TO have any committee hearings.
So because the republican members OF
the greatest committee of the house OF
representatives cannot all agree on one
bill. the whole machinery is TO stop.
What a trayesty on popular govern
ment The representatives OF the peo-
pie in congress assembled are supposed
to be engaged in legislating for the
wants of their constituents but because
some Of his associates do not agree with
Mr.. Payne he threatens to shut up shop,
stand pat and 20 home. The pluck OF
the republican members has certainly
greatly deteriorated or they would re-
sist the do-nothing policy when there
IS so much legislation that is demanded.
MIR. Tawney's bill. the matter that raised
this rumpus. was to prevent tobacco

outburst OF Chairman Payne. When a

erIa KuroratKln lad evidently antlc-
ipated just what happened, for he not
only met and repulsed it but actually
was able by superior force to overlap
and envelop the Japanese.
No attempt was made by Lieutenant
General Sakharoff in his report to es-
innate the Japanese losses, except to
say that they were extremely heavy
and the Russian losses were only ap-
proximated at 5000. No Russian gen
eral officers fell.
One of the striking features of the
battle was the splendid work of the
Russian artillery, in which arm the
Japanese heretofore have excelled.
One of the Associated Press Russian
correspondents says that a report was
current at Liaoyang that forty-six Jap
anese guns were captured during the
day.

Richmond, Que, Sept 1.-The worst
railway accident that has taken place
In this province since the Claire road
disaster in 1885 occurred here during
the day when the regular No. Grand

collided with the special fair train
from Montreal TO Sherbrooke Nine
persons were killed outright, two of
the injured died LITER of their hurts
and about fifty others were injured,
twenty-five of them seriously. Many
of the dead are SO badly mangled that
they are unrecogniZable. The ideEti-

The fair train was packed with peo-
pie. There was terrific crash and the
first two passenger cars in each train
telescoped the baggage cars, while
both engines were smashed to pieces
The cause of the disaster is unknown.
Within five minutes there were many
willing helpers on the spot and the
rescue was commenced. Physicians
were telephoned for from all over the
surrounding country and a special
train was Immediately sent from Sher-

casualties throughout the day were
5000.
The battle ended at o'clock Tues
day night, when many positions occu
pied by the Japanese were retaker
and again held by the Russians.
The report from Lieutenant General
Sakharoff is as follows:
From O'Clock a. m. until p. m
the Japanese forces attacked our front
positions before Liaoyang and on the
left bank of the Taitse river. Both
their artillery and rife fire were in
tense. Their main efforts were direct
ed against our center positions and
left flank, but numerous attacks were
repulsed along the whole line. Our
troops made several counter attacks
eliminating in bayonet fighting.
Many positions which had been oc
cupied by the Japanese were retaken
at 4 O'Clock in the afternoon. During
the artillery attack our batteries did
very effective work. About A p. m
the enemy were observed attempting
to turn our right flank with considera
BILE forces, but several battalions oI
reserves advanced and, after q fierce
engagement. checked the Japanese and
compelled them to retire. The battle
continued until dark and only ended
at o'clock.
Our casualties have been consid
erable, reaching about 5000. The Jap.

Jamesport, Mo-, Sept. 1.-Senator
Fairbanks, the Republican vice presi-

way to Marion, Kan, during the day.
He came in on special train over the

greeted along the route. At Trenton,
the county seat of Grundy county,
there was an impromptu meeting and
the senator made his first rear plat
form speech in this campaign. When
the train pulled into the station a
large assemblage of people was found
gathered on and about the platform
and there were loud calls for the sen
ator. He responded promptly, saying
that he had nowhere seen greater in
terest manifested in the campaign
than at that point. The speech was
received with applause and at it's con
clusion many of those present came
forward TO shake hands.
