ON THURSDAY
Congress Rushing the Town
send Rate Bill
FAVOR HAY BOND TREATY
1t wiz Replace the Pure Food Bill.
After Tuesdays Session of
congress-Members Now
Rushing Work
FAVOR HAY-B0ND TREATY

Washington, D. G., February 5.-Re-
publican opposition to the programme
of rushing the Townsend railroad rate
bill through the House has dwindled
away. The programme win be followed
without change. The rule limiting the
debate and cutting off the right TO
amend will be carried on Monday, and
as a result the bill itself win 90 through
on Thursday. There seemed for time
to be a possibility that the Pennsyl.
yania Republicans, following their de-
clarations Of Friday, would join the
Democrats in endeavoring to defeat the
rule, and with the full strength Of the
Pennsylvania delegation it ought to have
been possible to accomplish this end,
but if the idea was seriously enter
tanned, it was given up, and the Penn
sylvanians win not oppose the rule, at
least not as body, and will not vote
against the bill, unless it is in individ-
ual eases.
When asked if the Democrats would
join with the Pennsylvania Republicans
in the move suggested, John Sharp Will
liams declared that "the Democratic par
ty cannot be used 50 cats paw to
pull Republican chestnuts out of the
fire" He said that the Democrats would
fight the rule to the best Of their ability,
because they wished first of all to
amend section IA Of the Townsend bill
relative to ex parte injuetions. They
also wished the right to amend the
Davey bill with provisions covering the
private car and terminal evils. But when
defeated ON these points, as it was APP
parent they would be defeated, Mr.. Viii
Hams said he believed that the Demo-
Gratis would give, what the Republicans
would not, q unanimous party vote in
favor of the Townsend bill when it came
to the final test. This was not because
they thought it the best bill that could
be offered, but because it would at least
tend to remedy present conditions As
being, therefore, the best bill actually
obtainable and as being in the public
interest, the Democrats would vote for
it whether it happened to be Of Republic
can origin or not.
Senator Lodge Saturday brought up
in committee the Hay Bond reciprocity

dispIacing the pure food bill, which will
by that time be the regular unfinished
business. Senator Lodge believes that
a single executive session will he enoltoh
to secure the passage Of the treaty.
The House Saturday considered and
passed the consular service appropriation

Burlington, Feb. 6. Clarence j. Fer

Saturday, told OF the policy Of the

cent Legislature, carrying some radical
changes, Mr.. Ferguson said:

change Of front on the part Of the Yer

, ever, likely that some changes Of tao
tics will be inauguTated, or perhaps it
would be more proper to say a change

to succeed clergyman may be an in
timation that the superintendent is ex-
peted to practice more and preach less,

he will not be expected to talk some

4 have always believed in the en-
forcemcnt Of whatever law is good
enough to be retained. Advocates OF

years ago that holders Of licenses would

them instead, and that the number Of
unlicensed dealers is not materially de-
creased.
1T was said that the advocates Of
license, particularly the local option
league, would see to law enforcement.
Evidence Of their efforts along that line

excuse any efforts on the part Of the
Anti-Saloon League to supplement their

"SHELDON' IS
A PUZZLER
Barre MOntpelier'S Twirler
Causes Much Talk
NOW in UNIVERSITY OF VT.
Sporting Circles Trying to Figure Out
Identity of the Lanky Twirler Who
Was Star of Northern
League,
NOW IN UNIVERSITY OF VT.

The discussion in sporting circles as
to the identity OF sheldon" the crack
pitcher of the BART Montpelier team
last season, and who is at present a
student in the medical department Of
the University OF Vermont, is still 60
ing on. His name is Reulbach. The
following is communication e the
sporting editor Of The Boston journal:
Reulbach came TO Notre Dame Uni
versity in the fall Of 1901 as prepare
tory student. His home is at st. Lou
IS, where his father is a wealthy iron
contractor. Reulbach was only IS
when lie came to Notre Dame and prac-
tically inexperienced as ball player.
He was developed into a star 0uttielder
bv Peaches O'Nrill OF the Cincinnati
club Of last year, who was then back
stop fer Notre Dame and considered BY
many the best college catcher in the
country
Reulbach was declared ineligible BY
the faculty board Of control, as he was
not at that time entitled to the rank
of freshman. The following year, 1908,
he was induced to make a try as a
pitcher and succeeded beyond al ex
peetations, His great fault at first was
the loss Of great deal Of his terrific
speed when using cnrved bali, but i'm.
der the careful eve OF the Nogre Dame
coaches, Doe Reisling and ''Kid" Car
rich of Toledo, he oyercame this.
It was in 1908 lie made his first rep.
utation Ms pitcher, when he pitched
Notre Dame to victory in the race for
the Western college championship. Nj.
merous offers were made him, among
them being two the same day, one from
the Chicago Americans and the other
from the Chicago National club. These
came the day after lie pitched his fa-
nous eleyen-inning game against Him
DIS, which Jake Stahl won BY a tremend-
Gus drive.
Last spring Reulbach pitched for No.
tire Dame and at the close Of the season
was elected captain But his PLAYING

On the above statements Il Is hardly
necessary to add that Reulbach can
hardly be identical with Lawson OF

THAT coLLEcroRsHIP.
Political Scars That Have Already Been
Caused BY 1t.

The Brattieboro correspondent Of the
Springfield Republican gives the follow
ing version of the Burlington collector
ship appointment:
The announcement Of the presidents
intention to appoint the assistant secre-
airy Of he navy, Charles II. Darling, col
lector of the port of Burlington, in place
of the present incumbent, Olin Merrill,
comes as surprise to the several aspir-
ants for the place. Secretary Darling's
law partner and brother in-law, 0. M.
Barber of Bennington, was first in the
field, and his candidacy is said to have
been favored by the Vermont delegation
in Congress, with the exception of Sen
ator Proctor, who refused to commit
himself before he returned to Washing
ton. One Of Vermont's astute politi-
clans, in discussing the matter few
days since declared that it was under
stood in close political circles as early
as last summer that Judge Darling's
place in the navy department had been
pledged in advance to a personal friend
of the president, and that if Darling
wished he could have the collectorship
regardless of any other aspirant. Fur
thermore, it is understood that Senator
Proctor in fayoring Darling's appoint
ment has gotten even with Mr. Barber
who several years ago dispIeased the
senator in little political coup (which
he administered to some Of the senator's
forwards in an adjoining county. 1t il
amusing to note the displeasure which
this appointment has already occasioned
throughout the state, and the senior
senator IS catching it hard from some
Of the supporters OF disappointed candi-
dates. A swarm Of Vermont Office seek
crs are in Washington looking for their
hoped-for plums at the presidents hand
The chief bone OF contention Is the
district attorneyship, now held by James
l.. Martin of Brattleboro, and which,
it Is understood, Alexander Dunnett OF
st. Johnsbury coyets, Proctor is said
to be inclined to support Dunnett in
the belief that the latter's friends and
supporters have more potency in shap-
ing Vermont's politics than have Mar
tins friends. It is pretty fight, and
