CULLUM WOULD
PASS RATE BILL
FayOrS the Plan For Railroad
Regulation
SENATE WATNS MORE TIME
For Satisfactory Amendment--Move for
Delay Until Next Congress the
Present Plan of
Opposition.
SENATE WATNS MORE TIME

Washington, Feb. SENATOR Cullom,
formerly chairman Of the senate com
mittee on interstate commerce, fayors
the passage of the Esch- Townsend bill
for the regulation Of railroad rates, and
believes that the Senate should take
it just as it comes from the House and
enact it into law without amendment.
He so expressed himself yesterday to
the Illinois congressional delegation,
and the members Of the Illinois Manu-
facturers' association, who are here urg-
ing rate legislation. Senator CCullom
said that time does not remain for sat
isfactory amendment in the Senate at
the present session, and that it Is better
to take the Judgment Of the House than
to call Congress back for an extra ses.
sion to enact railroad legislation. SEN
ator Cullom said he was not ready to
declare the bill perfect, but as the House
has given the question thorough con-
sideration and as the Senate will not
take time to revise the measure, il
should be given to the country for trial.
He prefers accepting the House bill rath-
er than the chances Of no legislation
at ALL
Senator Kean's resolution now in the
course Of preparation to postpone con-
sideration of the railroad uestion till
the next assembling of Congress, wheth-
CIR in extra session or regular session,
finds great favor at the Capitol. Ii
Is thought to be physical impossible
ity, with the Swayne trial on hand. to
dispose OF SO important measure in
the few remaining weeks. TO have a
subcommittee of the Senate committee
take testimony during the recess would
afford seafety valve for those interests
which want to be heard, and no harm
coul come of it. The resolution in the
form in which Mr.. Kean viii present
it will not require the approval Of
either the House or OF the President,
as would the establishment OF a Joint
commission Of inquiry, and hence the
likelihood of its adoption. The presi-
dents attitude toward this proposition
is a subject Of some dispute. He dislikes
anything whichh seems ike a weaken
ing in this issue, and, on the other hand,
he would rather have real legislation in
an extra sssion, such as he would GER
talnly call, were the kean resolution
adopted, than such an unsatisfactory
makeshift as would be likely to result
from any attempt to dispose Of the sub
ject now

The Race Across the Ocean.


There is delay on the road, and
when the train draws near Liverpool
the hour set for the sailing of the
Teutonic is past: but Jack smiles
grimly-Jack who knows that late
mail from London will reach Holy
head, across the Irish sea to Dublin,
and arrive at Queenstown In time to
connect with the ocean grey hound the
following morning, and it is his inten-
ton to be in the same Irish cannon
ball train.
Having several hours to spare in
Liverpool, Travers dimes, purchases Q
watch to take the place of the fine
chronometer which fell into the hands
of the Trongate rufians. and purchases
a neat little article in the way of a
firearm, which, judging from appear
ances,' ought to render decent ac-
count of itself in time of need.
Once more, in a hurry, Jack and
his factotum arrive at the Welsh ter
minus of the railroad, board the steam
er, and pass over to the Irish capital,
where in the night another train must
be taken for Queenstown.
When they arrive it is broad day
light.
The Teutonic is anchored in the
harbor, waiting for the mail and late
passengers. AS they go out on small

Uses Of the Mesquite.

"The Mesquite tree is the boon of
the western American desert, and 1t is
the only sign of apology nature has yet
given for making certain parts of the
earth well nigh uninhabitable," said
G. A. Long of Pueblo. Colorado. "The
white people first learned from the In
tlians that the mesquite affords the
coolest shade of any tree, and the sight
Of the low. husky growth is hailed
with shout of joy by the traveller. 1t
also furnishes the only fuel of those
regions, and lately still another use
has been found for It,
by cultivating a row of mesquite In
much the same way as willows are
used in low and swampy places to
keep the soil from washing. the sands
Of the desert are held In check from
the action Of the shifting winds. and
thus great tracts Of otherwise barren
lands will In time be reclaimed for tie
use Of mankind. Even the desert can
be made to yield to the cunning hand
and brain of man."-Milwaukee Senti.
