Current Events and Happenings
of the World,

CHOCAGO, Ill, Nov. 1O.-In the fu-
ture students of the American history
class of Professor J. A. James at the
Northwestern university must read
the daily newspapers, if they wish to
avoid trouble. In the course of mis-
lecture the other day Professor James
referred to an article which appeared
in one Of the morning papers of that
day. Upon questioning one of the
members Of the class Professor James
found that the student had not read
that article and was, therefore, not
prepared to discuss it or any other
current news of the day. An exam
nation of the class showed that but
two of the members of the class had
read morning paper that day. "This
will never do said the professor.
Hereafter I shall expect you to
have an accurate knowledge of cur
rent events as chronicled each day in
the newspapers, and 1 shall consider
it fully as important as the daily les
sons assigned from the text books"

ASTOR is QUIZZED.
Son Of the Expatriate, William Valid
Off Astor, "Annoyed" in Gotham.

VII HSSO'y NiIiOyS0 III 0OSItdHIs
NE WYORK, Nov. 10.-Waldorf AS
tor, a son Of William Waldorf Aston,
arrived here yesterday in the steamer
Cedric and had the unusual question,
"Are you an American citizen?" put to
him by not only the customs officers
but the immigration authorities as we'll.
1t was the first time that the Ellis
island employees We're instructed to
ask the question of each cabin pas
senger, and the Cedric was selected
as the most desirable boat to inaugu-
rate what is to be a customary ques-
ton in the future.
What is your name?" Mr.. Astor
was asked and he seemed surprised
that the inspector did not know him.
He told who he was and was asked:
Are you an American citizen, Mr.. AS
tori"

mo, I'm not said Mr.. Aston, with
a decidedly English accent.
To the question as to where he re-
sided, Mr.. Astor said that he lived in
London.

over here for Thanksgiving day." VEN
tured the inspector.

seemed annoyed.
Mr.. Aston declined to be inter-
viewed.

TO legislate along the lines advocated
by President Roosevelt. This feeling
prevails particularly among the older
members, who are jealous of the dis
tinction which Esch and Townsend at
tanned in the last session by attaching
their names to the now famous meas
ure. Esch and Townsend have no
other claim to distinction as members
of the house, and the older congress-
men believe they have already been
advertised far in advance of their just
deserts.
The fact remains that the rate bill
that will become a law this WIN
ter (provided some bill is eventually
passed by both houses and signed
by the president) will be largely drawn
by the senate. No matter what sort
of bill the house may pass, the senate
will amend it all out of shape, and
the probabilities are, will strip it OF
many of it's salient features. Sew
eral senators have bills of their own
which they will introduce, and the
senate may substitute one OF these
bills, or the main features Of one OF
these bills, for the measure passed by
the house, in which event the name
of the senator introducing the favored
bill may attach to the legislation,
crowding out the name of any house
member.

Bills OF Senators.

Senator Elkins, chairman of the
interstate commerce committee, has a
bill; Senator Foraker of OHIO has
bill; Senator Clapp of Minnesota and
Senator Dolliver of Iowa, who stand
with the president, may introduce
bills conforming to their ideas. And
in the event that the senate strikes
out the provisions of the house bill
and passes a bill patterned after the
bill of any senator, the name of that
senator will probably attach to the
final act.
If the senate permits a rate bill TO
pass. the law that is written on the
statute books is more apt to be known
as the Elkins law or the Foraker law
than as the Esch-TOwnsend law. Ger
tain it is the senate will never pass
a bill like the Esch- Townsend bill of
last session, and this in itself is al
most sufficient guarantee that the
names of these two members will not
attach to the final legislation, if there
is any.

Members of Congress Making Strong

Has Little Chance.

There will probably be a lively
scramble at the coming session OF
congress over the naming of the rail-

BY a clever legislative move two COM
paratively unknown members, Esch
of Wisconsin and Townsend of Micht-
gan, managed to nave their names
attached to the bill passed by the last
house of representatives, though as
matter of fact the bill which was re-
ported by the house committee was b
complete measure, embodying not only
the ideas of Messrs. Esch and Town
send. but of numerous other members
of the interstate commerce committee,
is the report that comes from the
national capital.
The Esch- Townsend bill having
been widely advertised over the coun-
try by reason of its adoption by the
last house of representatives, these
two congressman are anxious that the
bill to be passed by the house this
winter shall also bear their names,
and they are planning to bring this
about. But there are some members
who believe the house committee will
report a different sort of bill from that
drawn by the Esch-Townsend COM
bine, and in that event some new
name may be given it.
To Honor Hepburn.
Many members believe that the
bill devised and reported by the house
committee should be known as the
Hepburn bill, in honor of Representa-
tive Hepburn of Iowa, chairman of
the committee, and a man familiar
with the rate problem, and anxious

State is in Doubt.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, November THE
most exciting campaign waged in Ohio in
thirty years was ended at midnight last
night The consensus of opinion at that
hour was that Ohio was in doubt. James
NJ. Pattson, democrat, concluded his cam
paign at Hamilton Saturday night with the
declaration that he would rather see Cox's
corrupt gank downed in Cincinnati than be
the governor of Ohio.
''If any republican in Cincinnati" declared
Pattison, must make a choice between my
self and Judge Edward Dempsey, the anti.
Cox mayor of that city-if he can vote for
only one of us l beg him to vote for Demp-
sey.
'If there is a question as to which is to
be saved-Cincinnati or the state of Ohio
/ beg of my friends everywhere that they
redeemed the task of saving Ohio will be
that much easier accomplished"
This declaration was answered by a
mighty cheer from one of the greatest DO
litical gatherings of the year.
Democratic victory at Columbus and To-
ledo are predicted. large number of cir
culars were distributed at Cleveland yes
terday to every man interested In the
liquor business sent by Joseph Miller, sec
retary OF the Ohio Brewers Association a:
Columbus, calling upon him to drop every
thing and work for Herrick until the polls
close today.
Miller inclosed in the same envelope with
this circular a list of ten reasons why Pat
tison should be defeated for governor
Among the reasons given by Miller were
that Pattison was member of that un-
American organization the American Pro-
tective Association, and that Pattison had
stated in his speeches that it was time for
Americans to run this counry for AmerI-
cans and not foreigners.
