by the good cheer Mt the bolrd space
Mt the head of the table is cleared and
from bag arc drawn silver coins prn.

vision being the production OF co!us
fresh from the mint.
These are laid in Il duulGe,row acro.s
the table. and when all is ready tic

the bride lightly IL the table. Carefully
avoiding the disTaaciiig. OF IL coin (for

STAMMERlNG.
The Cure Tibet One ,suGere- invented
May Help OthcrH.

Among the minor arts of great i'm
poftance Is the self cure of stammer-
Ing. which comes upon SO many In
early youth. In the memoir of the
author of John Inglesant," which his
widow prepared. we read Il rather
touching confessions. II contracted tho
habit of stammering," wrote Mr.. Short
house to Lady Welby, "as delicate
little boy OF three at II large day school,
1t was not such q misfortune as light
be supposed. For without this thorn
in the flesh John Inglesant' would
never have been written or conceived,
and much which Is very dear to me In
philosophy would have been ! I'M
known" Few stammercrs can bring
forth a classic from their affiiction,
and some would even refuse the nu-
thors fame at the price of the speak
cr's cmbarrassmcnts.
In many cases the self cure OF STAN
mcring is easy. The present writer
was IL sufferer when n boy Mt day
school. He set himself to invent the
cure. 1t was absolutely necessary, he
found, that the opening syllable OF II
sentence should he said several timci
before the sentence was under way
Dust as the billiard player wagGlcs his
cue before the correct stroke). 1t Of
Cured that the stammerng might be
done silently. So that little hoy STAN
mered firmly TO himself with tightly
closed lips. imagining himself to be-
speaking. 1t was easy enough. when
the requisite number Of 'tut-tut-tuts'
or "Eug-gug-gugs' had been achieved
In silence to start the sentence. Since
then he has never stammSecd-aloud.

down the railway. it is thought by the Japanese, it will probably induce the Russians to await in the future Japa- nese attacks. The attempt, even with the bOmbardment of other portions of the line or the cavalry movement around the flank was doomed to fail ure from the start. The Japanese were at HeikoutaI but withdrew it's small force from there and allowed the Russians to occupy positions until they could move over enough men to make it's recapture certain.
 The reOccupation of this position was easily accomplished although the loss was heavy. The casualties have not yet been reported but it is be- lieved that they will amount to fully divisions engaged at Heikoutal and in that direction. They were driven back by less than two Japanese divisions.
 Over 100000 men were engaged in the Russian demonstration against the Japanese positions immediately east of Heikoutal a force strong enough to have been successful, as only about one Japanese division was sent against them. The Russian loss is estimated at over 4000 although prisoners say that one regiment was practically an initiated. The Japanese loss is only placed at 200, due to the fact that they remained in their trenches while the Russians were forced to cross the open ground, solidly frozen, where the con structiOn of trenches was impossible.
 The ground being covered with snow was naturally d great disadvantage to the attacking force as it was plainly visible against the white background for a long distance. The Japanese suffered the same disadvantage in the recapture of HeikOutal. The weather was very cold during the fighting the minimum being six degrees below and the maximum fourteen degrees above zero. The Russians did not retreat north, but retired well out of range with no sign of further activity.
 During the fighting the left wing of the Japanese was heavily bombarded from the Russian positions along the whole front The Japanese made only a feeble reply.

FIXING RAILROAD RATES.

Washington, Feb. 3.-The repubIi- cans of the house of representatives in conference today adopted as a party measure the bill extending the rate making power to the interstate com commission as agreed on by the com mittee on interstate and foreign com merce and known as the Esch-TOwn- send bill.
 The conference instructed the house committee on rules to bring in a rule providing for the consideration of the measure beginning on Tuesday and continuing until four o'clock Wednes- day, when a vote shall be taken. No amendments were allowed to the bill although the frst vote is to be taken on the Davey bill. as the democratic substitute for legislation on the rail road rate subject.

The facts in the Charges Against Him Admitted
DEFENSE IS EXPLANATION
But Even if the Accusations Were True, He Would not Be Subject to Impeachment - The Trial Will Be- gin Un Feb. 10.

Washington, Feb. 3.-Through his counsel Judge Swayne today made a formal response in the senate to the ar ticles of impeachment voted by the house of representatives. The answer was a formidable document in point of size. Each of the twelve articles of Impeachment was answered at length. In every case the fact charged was ad- mitted, but explained from Judge Swayne's point of view, and, in addi- tion it was contended that even if the conditions were true as charged, they were not of such a character as to justify the proceedings for impeach- ment for high crimes and misde- meanOrs''
 The answer was read by former Sen ator Thurston and when he concluded the senate issued an order requiring the house to file it's formal reply by next Monday and directed that all pleadings shall be in by Feb. 9, so that the trial may proceed on Feb. 10. The proceed ings attracted a large crowd to the gal Ieries and most of the senators were in their seats.
 After this action Senators Barry, Stone and Morgan spoke in opposition to the joint statehood bill in its pres cnt form

Interstate Commerce DeCi-
 sion in C. F. & 1. Case
II WAS A BENEFICIARY
The Commission Holds That There Was an Arrangement for Discrimi- nation by the Santa Fe Against all Other Competing Coal Companies.

Washington, Feb. 3.-"FIagrant. will ful and continuous violations'' of the law during the past five years is the way in which the Atchison, Topeka 6 Santa Fe railroad is arraigned in q decision promulgated today by the in terstate commerce commission on the alleged unlawful rates and practices" of that road in the transportation of coal and mine supplies involving also the Colorado Fuel and Iron company.
 The main points of the decision. summarizing the way in which it is alleged the law has been violated and dtsregarded are as follows: The act to regulate commerce requires car rieTs to publish and adhere to their tariffs. The AtchisOn Topeka and Santa Fc railroad company has for the last five years wilfuIly and continu- ously violated this provision of the law in the respects above stated.
 Feb. 19, 1903, the socaled 'EIkins biIr was enacted, providing that car riers should n no case transport traf- ftc until the tariff had been published and that the published tariff should be observed and providing a penalty of not less than 5000 nor more than $2O,- GOO for each Offense. The provisions Of this statute extend both to the rail- way company, which grants and the party which receives the concession.
 Both the Santa Fe and the Colorado Fuel and Iron company continuously violated the provisions of that act in the particulars mentioned. from the day of it's passage down to Nov. 27, 1904, when the tariffs under which this coal was moved were reduced in all cases to S1.15. It would seem that the FL Paso and Southwestern railroad was also in violation of the same sta tUte during the period, but that com pany was not a party to this proceed ing and has not been heard.
 Tt should be further observed that on March 25, 1902. the United States circuit court. in a suit begun at the in- stance and request of the interstate commerce commission enjoined- the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe rail- way company to observe in all re- spects it's published schedules of rates That company from the date of this injunction down to Nov. 27, 1904, was apparently in continuous disregard of that order of the court in it's failure to maintain these coal tariffs"
 "The alleged infractions of law were first called to the attention of the commission by the claim of the Gale donia Coal company. operating a coal mine at Gallup. N. NJ, that the Santa F'e road was discriminating against it in favor of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company. \ contract of the Santa Fe with the Caledonia company expired 1898 or 1899, and was not renewed and

sure. The only test vote taken was a motion to postpone the matter for fur ther conferences next Tuesday. This was lost A to 107. Efforts were made to amend the bill during the confer ence, but all of these failed. Fault was found with the bill on the ground that it did not include the regulation for the private ear evil and terminal charges Advocates of the bill contested these criticisms, claiming that authority was contained in the bill to correct the complained of evils.
 The change of the meeting from caucus, as the call stated, to a confer ence" leaves the members participat- ing free to follow their own inclina- tiOns. It is understood that the oppO- sition may organize with the purpose of joining the minority in the house in the vote on a rule prescribing the man ner of considering the bill in the house. These plans, however, have not been actually decided on.
 Messrs. Mahon and Sibley of Penn sylvania, were conspicuous in their Op- position to any legislation at this time, both contending that sufficient time had not been given to the considera- tiOn of the subject.
 Speaker Cannon advised his asso- ciates that if action was to be taken at all, 1t must be taken now. He sug gested that a recess might be taken until evening, but the sentiment of the members present was so Overwhelm- ingly in favor of immediate action that the speaker did not press his sugGes- tiOn.
 Representative Payne of New York said that the bill in it's present shape did not provide for anything more than what was in the original interstate commerce act which had stood for ten years. at the end of which time the railroads raised the question of the le- gality of the enforcement of the deci- sions of the commission as to rates, the courts sustaining the contention that there was no power vested in the com mission to fiX rates.
 After nearly a week of discussion the posto.tice appropriation bill, carry ing S1SO,737,415 was passed following the defeat of a motion by Mir. Moon of Tennessee to recOmmit with instruc- tions to strike out the provision for special mail facilities on trunk lines.
