siderable Opposition.

number of minor bills were dis

The debate while the DIPLOMATIC bill
was under consideration was very
brief and was devoted to railroad rate
legislation and reciprocity treaties.
Foster, VT, was chairman of the
committee of the whole
Lamar. fla. discussed railway rate
legislation. He asserted thar Congress
had the power to fix every railway rate
and had constitutional authority to
delegate this power to a commission or
tribunal.
That Congress should do this was en-
phasiZed he said. by appeals from 800
organized commercial and agricultural
associations. by the position the Demo-
cratic party had taken, by the recom-
menddtiOnS of the Republican party
and by the fact that during the 10 years
the interstate commerce commission
had exercised the rate-making power
none Of the railroad interests of the
country we're injured.
Lamars reference as to the pending
measures on the subject was the Hearst
bill, with the amendments suggested
by ShackelfOrd and himself
Mann. H., offered an amendment
providing for six diplomatic attaches
of the department Of state at Il salary
of &sO0O hG ~ MT of
commerce. In explaining the amend
ment Mann said it was in line With
a recent recommendation of the Presi-
dent.
Hit said ne did not wish to shut out
the amendment on a point Of order. but
he saw no special advantage ANA no
added dut hority or prestige to be
gained.
Mann stated he was willing TO accept
the Judgment of Hit on the matter
and withdrew the amendment.
Before final action on the bill was
taken. Thomas. \. G., was given the
floor for L. minutes, which he occupied
in advocating action by the Senate on
pending reciprocity treaties and rSpec-
tally that between the United States
and France.

Sunday Night Meeting at Audi
tOrium a Success.
Big Building Packed With In
tereSted People.
CHURCHES DISMISSED.
DR.. Evans Appeal for Money
Was Successful.
Building Fund Is Still SI7, 900
Short.

At a meeting at the Auditorium last
night pledges were given for dona-
tons to the Y. NJ. c. A. building fund
amounting to approximately $4,000.
The meeting was the largest and
most enthusiastic of any that has been
held at the Auditorium since Presi-
dent Roosevelt spoke there. The
building was packed from the stage
to the last row in the balcony, and
hundreds of people were turned away
who were unable to gain admittance
to the hall.
The leading churches of the city
dismissed their services in order that
all might attend the Auditorium
meeting. The members of the Chris
tan EndeavOr societies and the Ep-
worth League societies met in various
parts of the city and marched to the
Auditorium singing songs and gospel
hymns
The Y NJ c. A. building fund now
aggregates about $4,000 The con-
tract for the building will be let as
soon as the fund reaches the sum of
$4,000. The meeting is regarded as
an exceptional endorsement by the
people of Topeka of the Y. NJ. c. A.
building movement.
Governor Hoch was the first speak
er on the programme and he made a
speech recommending in strong terms
the work of the Y NJ. c. A.
Following the musical programme
