CONSIDERING LANES CASE.
Opposition to His Nomination as In
terstate Commissioner.

The Senate committee on interstate coIn-
merce yesterday considered the nomination
of Franklin Lane of California 10 be men,
Der Of the interstate commerce commission.
1t was known to members of the commit
tee that there was opposition to the con-
frmation of Mr.. Lane, and therefore 1t
was referred to a subcommittee which will
hear all objections and report to the full
committee. No formal protest against the
nomination has been made, although 1t
has been declared by certain Pacific coast
senators that they believe the appointment
should have been given to a republican.
The same view is held by many eastern
senator's and 1t Is predicted that the noml
nation may be held up for some time. 1t
was stated today that Senator Cullom de-
sired that no action be taken until he
could consider the case. The nomination of
Lane is to succeed Commissioner Filter,
who announced that ne would resign on
account Of Ill health. His health has been
better recently, and 1t is rumored that an
effort will be made to have him withdraw
his resignation and continue to serve.
The committee discussed several propo-
sftions relating to the various rate bills to-
day, but had specific measure under
consideration. The attendance was small
on account of the meetings of a number
OF other committees. The reports Of the
statistical experts. prepared at the re-
quest of the committee, were ordered print
ed. No definite action, It was said. can be
taken until the committee has this infor-
nation in convenient form for reference

The cable also stated that many narrow
passages. some impossible for the ship to
enter, were met on the trip, and that the

FOR FOOT BALL REFORMS.
Suggestions by President WEIGH of
Ohio Wesleyan University.

Abolition of foot ball IN high schools and
academies and revision of the rules to bring
about a more open game were favored by
President Herbert WEIGH of Ohio Wesleyan
University, in an address at Cincinnati Fri
day night before the Cincinnati alumni, who
rendered him banquet on their first oppor-
tunity since he had come from his former
New York home to assume the. presidency
of his alma mater. DR.. Welch expressed
himself as In favor of greater diversity in
college athletics and said:
There is very serious question whether
foot ball should be played by young stu
dents whose frames have not sufficiently
matured to endure the strain. 1t Is signif1-
cant that most Of the foot ball fatalities are
among the students of high schools and
academies, and l would favor the abolition
of the same In such institutions. For the
college game 1T seems to me that more open
play, reducing the brutality and making
possible the quicker discovery of foul play
would be an advantage"

Yale after delivering his address. After
tracing the development of this govern
ment down TO the civil war Mr.. Shaw said:

but historically when l say that since the

creasing national supervision. The national
banking act. antitrust legislation and rail-
way supervision are instances of the trend.
Have we reached the limit? 1t would seem
not. The demands for federal supervision
of corporations. for insurance control,
for additional rate legislation, for govern

SHAW ON MERCHANT MARINE.
Secretary Of Treasury Chief Speaker at
Fitchburg Banquet.

Secretary Shaw, at the annual banquet OF
the Fitchpurg (Mass) Merchants Associa-
ton Thursday night, declared that lmmedi-
ate steps should be taken TO improve the
merchant marine of this country. He said,
among other things:
Senator Gallinger. chairman Of the mer'
chant marine commission, created by a
previous Congress, introduced a bill on the
first day Of the present session. the pur-
pose of which. as distinguished from the
merits of the bill itself, 1 desire to call to
your attention.
II do not believe that the recommends
lions of the merchant marine commission
are the most feasible which 1t is possible
to devise, and l am not here to speak in
their defense. / speak only in advocacy OF
some policy which will restore to the seas a
fair representation of American ships and
afford our manufacturers equal opportun-
tiles with their competitors in these COM
paratively new markets We will find it
much easier to build a trade now than
to wrest 1t from competitors after 1t
is thoroughly established
Forty years ago we had only one-fourth
many tons of freight to carry as we
now have, but we actually carried in Amer
lean ships three times many tons as we
carry now. Our merchant marine is thing
OF the past. 1t may be, and l hope 1t will
be, a thing OF the future. / know it is not
of the present.

London's Fight Against Smoke.
ON the Chicago Record-Herald.

HEoui tne Cnlcago Q-derald.
When London discovered that the worst
features of its world-renowned fogs were
due to smoke, and when one Of Its wits In
vented the word "smos to describe the
horrible smoke-fos combination, the city
took fresh start in its old anti-smoke
campaign. Previously It had known abso-
lutely that smoke could be suppressed with
out injury to its manufactures and other
business. Now it seems to have decided
that the suppression must come very soon.
There is soon to be held a conference on
Smoke abatement" in London, at which the
Royal Sanitary Institute and the London
Smoke Abatement Society will participate
Three days are to be devoted to the reading
ana discussion of scientific and practical
papers and to the inspection of smoke-pre-
Vention devices. Special sections OF the
conference wall center attention on domes-
tic smoke, Industrial smoke and legislative
reforms. An article in the London Times
sets forth in advance the status of the
smoke question and the accepted facts in
regard to II.
The estimate is made that four-fftbs Of
London smoke is due to shortcomings in the
boiler plants, either because the chamber
rof the combustion process Is too small or
because nonconducting walls for the cham
Der are not provided. The three essential
conditions for the perfect combustion of
bltumlnous fuel are said to be % a suffl-
ciency OF air preferably heated, (2) suffi-
GENTLY high temperature In the combus-
ton area and 60 a good admixture of the
air with the hydrocarbon gases given off
by the fuel. The experience of plants in
London and in Hamburg is appealed to to
prove that bituminous fuel can be burned
without smoke with high efficiency and
without excessive cost IN Industrial plants.
FRANKLIN MacVeagh's saying that smoke
Is the barometer not OF prosperity but of
stupidity would certainly be accepted IN
e.. QrIa n olc ~
many words, the motto of Iondon's
abatement advocates.

ROCKVILLE NEWS NOTES.
Montgomery County Sportsmen Want
| Legislation to Protect Game.
specIal Correspondenee Of The Star


ROCKVILLE, Md, December Is, 1905
The agitation IN favor of the approach
ing session of the MARYLAND legislature for
the protection Of the game of the state, es-
pecially the partridge, meets with the
hearty Endorsement of The sportsmen OF this
county The severe weather of last win
ter and the frequent heavy rains of the
past summer pretty nearly exterminated the
partridge in this county. Various sugges-
lions have been made, the one seeming to
meet with the most favor being the closed
season Idea. Some think one year would
be long enough, while others are of the
opinion that no shooting should be allowed
for two years or longer. 1t has also been
proposed that BIRDS be imported for restock-
ing purposes, and that in addition there be
a closed season in Montgomery county. Mr.
ton of cartridges was tried in this county
several years ago with considerable sue
cess, and It is believed that the sportsmen
of the county will raise a fund for this
purpose, no matter what action the legis-
lature takes. In case there Is no general
law passed II is thought that this coun-
tvs delegation in the legislature will be
asked to have enacted law providing for
closed season in oMntgomery county. Mr.
Edward c. Peter of the Rockville bar Is
interesting himself in the matter, and is of
the opinion that something will be done to
replenish the stock Of partridges through
out the state.

Niagara Ownership in Question.

Before the dominion government can ar
range with the United States to protect
Niagara Falls from destruction at the
hands of the power companies It must be de-
cided whether the water that runs over the
falls on the Canadian side belong to the
federal authorities or to the province of
Ontario. 1t Is asserted at Ottawa that I'M
der a judgment rendered by the judicial
committee of the privy council the bed of
the river belongs to the province Of Onta-
the dominion. On the American side the
federal government has to clear up a ques-
ton of jurisdiction with New York state
before it will be ready to make bargain
with Ottawa.
