WASHINGTON Nov. Ex-senator
Foraker today presented to the senate
committee on interstate commerce the
draft of his bill to amend the inter-
state commerce law. The senator stat
ed that he had tried to meet the COM
plants against present railroad condi-
tions and at the same time avoid con-
ferring upon the interstate commerce
commission or any similar body the
power of making railroad rates.
The Foraker bill, however, provides
for enjoinlng the publishing and charg-
ing of excessive rates and for enjoin-
ing any determinations forbidden by
law, whether as between shippers,
places, commodities or otherwise and
whether effected by means of rates,
rebates, classifications, private cars,
prefereatials "or in any other manner
whatever"
While this does not confer upon the
court the power to fix a rate it does
authorize the court to say what is an
unlawful rate and how much is unlaw-
full, and to enjoin the carrier from
charging more than is found to be law
full. The bill also is designated to pro-
hibit the giving of passes. to allow
free access to railroad documents and
to meet complaints as to rail rates, as
to export and import freight. The i'm
portant provisions of the Foraker bill
are contained in a section which
amends section of the Elkins act and
is as follows:
Important Provisions of Bill
hot tubn ha inf
state commerce commission shall have
reasonable ground for belief that any
common carrier Is engaged in the car
rying of passengers or freight traffic
between given points at less than the
published rates on file, or is, either
singly OF in cooperation with one or
more other carriers, publishing and
charging unjust or unreasonable rates
therefor, or is committing any discrim-
nations forbidden by law, whether as
between shippers, places, commodities
or otherwise, and whether effected by
means of rates, rebates, classificatons,
preferentials, private cars, refrigerator
cars. switching or terminal charges,
elevator charges, failure to supply ship
pers equally with cars or in any other
manner whatsoever, 1t shall be its
duty, if such carrier or carriers will
not, after due notice, desist from such
attorney general brief statement of
it's grounds for such belief and evidence
in support thereof and thereupon, upon
his direction and in the name of the
United States petition shall be pre-
sented alleging such facts to the cir
cult court of the United States sitting

the act complained of is alleged to have
been committed or as being committed
in part in more than one judicial dis
trict or state it may be dealt with, in
quired Of tried and determined in any

Disastrous COnflagratiOn

in with streams of water playing on
them.
Five firemen were stationed on the
roof of the five and ten cent store
building, adjoining the Harris and
Frank building. The flames were
headed straight toward them and for
thirty minutes the men crouched and
fought fought with the fury of des-
peration and through their efforts
alone the adjoining buildings were
saved
At ten minutes before IL o'clock the
first stream was sent from the lower
pipe of the water tower. But there
was something wrong with the force
of the water and the lower pipe re-
sponded with only feeble stream that
hardly reached the building. 1t was
tried several times but after starting
In good trim would relax at reaching
the vital points of the fire.
FINALLY strong stream was secured
just as the framework was crushed
in, giving the machine full play on the
interior Of the second floor of the
building.
From that time on the fire began to
lose grip and the tower was sent forty
feet in the air. From that position
volume Of water was sent into the
building and the flame gradually sub
sided until shortly before midnight the
engines were withdrawn with the ex-
ception of two companies, who re-
manned to watch through the night.
Loss Over Quarter of a Million
Mr. Harris, the proprietor, arrived at
the fire shortly before 1t was put un-
der control He was unable to make
an estimate Of the destruction, saying
that the entire stock was a loss, but
was covered partly by insurance
A conservative estimate by fire in
spectors placed the loss at about $780,
900 for the stock and building the lat
ter belonging to the Westland estate.
Guards were put on watch at the
building last night and wreckers will
be put to work to clear up the rub
bish and recover what stock Is left.
While helping to carry out type from
a small printing shop located in the
basement next to the building at the
south of the fire, E. e. Porter, a
printer living at the Veranda house on
Flower street, ran into a ladder and
sustained a large cash on his left
cheek. He was removed to the receiv-
ing hospital

hose on the roof began to pour dowr
upon the little party. Both of the men
stepped into the entrance of the post
office on Franklin street. No sooner
had they stepped into the entryway tc

officious clerk seized both of them and
forced them out into the street, and
before they could regain their balance
had closed and locked the door
The exhibition showed the utmost
boorishness and sboth Mr.. Frank and
Mr.. Harris were soaked to the skin by
the downpour Of water.
Bystanders became indignant and
would have given the clerk drubbing,
but both Harris and Frank asked the
men as personal favor to do nothing.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Nov. "a
A desperate attempt to escape from the
state prison was made by four con-
victs at 3:15 this morning, resulting in
terrific battle with weapons and nj
tro-glycerine at the prison gate, a run
ming fight through the streets of JEFF
ferson City and the final capture Of the
four convicts, two of whom were shot
and wounded. Two prison officers
were shot dead and a third seriously
wounded.
Warden Matt w. Hall, Yardmaster
Porter Gilvin and five prison guards
departed this morning for Fort Leav-
enworth, kas., on a special train con-
veying seventy-one federal prisoners
who are being transferred from the
Missouri state penitentiary to the gov
ernment prison at Fort Leavenworth.
1t is believed that this fact had much
to do with the outbreak today, as It
is Surmtsed the convicts had counted
largely upon Warden Halls absence In
their premeditated attempt to escape.
There was not the slightest ipremoni-
ton OF any trouble within the prison
walls. Suddenly Convicts Harry
Vaughn. Charles Raymond. Hiram
Blame, George Ryan and Eli Zegler,
who were working in close proximity
to the prison gate, inside the inclosure,
as If by given signal, made a rusl,
for the gate. From their pockets they
drew pistols and it is presumed that at
least one of them carried a bottle of
nitro -glycerine. Where these weapons
and the explosive were obtained has
not yet been discovered. Rushing past
the gate, they entered Deputy War
den Sees office and shot him as he
sat in his chair He sank back and
was unable to resist them. Instantly

while preparing a meal, for when the
bodies were found food was on the
stove cooking. She had been savagely
hacked with hammer and knife. After
her murder the children had evidently
been called In, one by one, and mur-
