Instead of arches extending across the

Stands for Employees.
Two covered stands are to be erected over
the grass plots on the Pennsylvania avenue
front of the State, War and Navy Depart
ments building. for the use of the employees
of those departments on Inauguration day.
Permission to erect these stands was given
by Secretaries Hay, Taft and Morton on
the basis of opinion rendered by Judge
Advocate General Davis of the army that
such action is not in conflict with the
statute prohibiting the use of government
buildings and approaches for purposes of
the Inauguration ceremonies, except where
specially authorized by Congress. The au-
thorities hold that the grass plots occupy
ing part of the area in front of the building
are not parts of the building or Its APP
proaches. Compliance with the law as to
the approaches is met by keeping the side
walks and all the entrances to the building
free of obstruction.
1t is estimated that these two stands will
seat about 2400 persons and will cost to-
gether about 5000. To meet that expense
the choicest seats will be sold at 50 apiece
and other seats at $50 and $l.CO. The
seats will be sold by subscription to the
officials and employees of the State. War
and Navy departments and the stands VIII
not be erected unless the payment of the
attending expenses is guaranteed. The
matter is in the hands of committee OF
the three departments, which is now en-
deavoring to raise the money by subscrip-
ton with a view to making the necessary
contracts.

Threatens Man Who Caused
His Arrest-Whole Family
Now i'm Prison

Peter Biggs is in trouble and the CEN

He was released from the penitentiary a
few days ago and since then has been
making himself a nuisance to James
Doherty, proprietor of a hotel on Henne-
pin avenue, who was responsible for his
arrest and Imprisonment some time ago.
BiggS has been hanging about the place
making threats against the life of Doher-
ty, and yesterday when Doherty was in
st. Paul he appeared at the hotel and
went into the basement where he re-
peated his declaration to the fireman,
who informed his employer as soon as he
returned. and Mr.. Doherty sent for the
police. Capt. George Sinclair, of the CEN
trail station, appeared and Biggs made
stubborn resistance to being taken to the
central station.
He twisted about, spat in the police
mans face. and finally tripped him, but
as the policeman fell Biggs was at the
bottom of the heap and was dragged
through the mud to the central station
ana locked up on a charge of vagrancy.
The Biggs family belonged to the West
ern avenue gang. The father is in the
county Jail held to the grand jury A
brother was sent to the workhouse for a
long term a few days ago; another brother
is in the penitentiary the charge of

who are in the county jail awaiting trial.
These boys are said to have admitted to
the chief of police that they belonged to

Roosevelt Gives Up Idea for

President Roosevelt, who for weeks has
been hopeful that some definite action
might be taken at the present session
of congress on the railroad rate ques-
ton, practically has relinquished the
idea of securing legislation on the sub
ject this winter.
1t is reasonably certain that he will
not call an extraordinary session of
congress to meet in the spring, but un-
less he changes his mind he will call
congress together probably next Octo-
Der.
Representatives Esch and Townsend.
joint authors of the rate bill which
passed the house, had a talk with the
president today. They outlined the
rate situation in congress as they have
found it. They agreed with him that
the prospect for the enactment of the
rate legislation at this session was re-
mote. They indicated that if no ac-
tion was taken at this session, the sub
ject would be considered thoroughly
during the coming summer with the
idea of presenting measure at the
next session which very likely would
contain some additional features.
AS they left the White house both
Messrs. Esch and Townsend expressed
the conviction that an extra session
would be called for next autumn to
deal with the rate question.

STONE SPEAKS AGAINST
ESCH.TOWNSEND BILL
Says That State Rates Already Are
Confiscatory

WASHINGTON, d. c.. Feb. 20-Col.
Henry l.. Stone, general counsel of the
Louisville & Nashville, continued his
statement today before the interstate
commerce committee of the senate in
opposition to the Townsend bill
for the regulation of railroad rates.
He objected to the provision of the bill
which requires that rates fixed by the
interstate commerce commission shall
take effect within thirty days without
any provision for a review of these
rates before any court.
Col. Stone said that in most of the
thirteen states in which the Louisville
& Nashville operated, the rates are
fixed by state commissions, and that
If railroads depend upon the business
between points in the same state, the
freight rates being fixed by the state
commissioners. the roads could not be
maintained. This is notable in Illi-
nois, he said, where the state rates are
almost confiscatory and railroads are
compelled to look to interstate busi-
ness entirely to pay operating ex-
penses.
