RAILROAD RATE LEGISLATION.
Nothing VIII be Done al this Session

Washington, February 20.-President
Roosevelt, who for weeks has been
hopeful that some definite action might
be taken at the present session Of Con-
gress on the railroad rate question.
practically relinquished the idea OF Sc
curing legislation on the subject this
winter. It Is reasonably certain that
he will not call an extraordinary session
Of Congress to meet in the spring, but
unless ne changes his mind. he will call
Congress together probably next Octo-
ber.
Representatives Esch and Townsend,
joint authors Of the rate bill which
passed the House. had a talk with the
president today. They agreed with
him that the prospect for the enactment
Of rate legislation at this session was
remote.
As they left the White House, both
Messrs. Esch and Townsend expressed
the conviction hat an extraordinary
session would be called for next au-
tumn to G with the rate question.

showing the extension of charter was
guaranteed in the contract of lease, the
lease being for 80 ear while the char
ter has only 45 more years. Opponents
of the extension, claim that freight
rates had teen raised already in viola

Washington, February 20.-President
Roosevelt today received a committee
appointed by the recent Southern State
Cotton convention at New Orleans to
extend the foreign markets for cotton
products. The delegation consisted Of
about a dozen members, headed by for
mer Senator McLaurin, of South Car
DINA. The committee urged immediate
steps looking to congressional action
for this purpose in behalf of the cotton
interests. The President discussed the
question with the delegation and stat
ed that he would take it up with the
Congress. He assured the committee
that he would do all The could to facili-
tate the movement. Senator McLaurin,
who introduced the committee, spoke
as follows:
Mr. McLAURIN'S INTRODUCTION.
.tMr. President: During the last
days of January there met in New Or
leans, one of h most remarkable in
dustrial assemblages that We have had
ir the south since the war. The term
Cotton Growers Convention is to some
extent misleading, for the convention
represented the merchants, bankers and
mill men to an equal extent. The cor
vention found itself face to face with
two propositions of a situation that
called for action. First, the
ably high prices for cotton in 1902 and
1908, had, while curtailing the consump-
ton of cotton products, stimulated the
largest acreage ON record, which with
good seasons has produced a surplus

SEE DAMON AND PYTHlAS'
KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS AND 9TH
ERs MAKE UP LARGE AUDIENCE
AT THE AUDITORIUM. $500 r. :;

Fully two thousand knights Of Pyth-
las and their friends witnessed the pres
entation Of "Damon and Pythias" by
Sanford Dodge and his company at the
Auditorium last night. Tho, the, per
formance was not concluded until 1880,
not a person left his seat before the
curtain dropped ..-. -.
From Mr.. Dodge, who was an excel
lent Damon, down to the most unim-
portant soldier on the stage, all the
players interpreted their parts almost
perfectly, and but for the poor acoustic
properties of the Auditorium there
would not be well-grounded criticism.
This latter misfortune, however, marred
the work Of all the actors. When they
took either side of the stage and spoke
directly to the, auditors on that side
stood, but when the scene was shifted
to one side or the other the listeners
on the opposite side lost a great deal
of the work Of the players and the lat
ter lost deserved appreciation. =
The work of Mr.. Dodge as Damon
gave his lines a dramatic strength that
invoked much applause. Pythias was
powerfully played by. Adolph Magyar.
