ministrative body itself must be given the power to do the work, and then held to strict accountability for the exercise of that power. The delays of the law are proverbial. and what we need Is reasonable quickness of action. !
 Democrats indicate how closely Pres ident Roosevelt has followed their na- tionaf platform by putting finger upon this expression of his in his Raleigh speech:
 DeIiveranee at RaIelgh.
 Tn my judgment the most import ant thing to do ts to give this admin istrative body power to make It's fnd- fngs effective, and this can be done on- iy by giving 1t power, when complaint Is made of a given rate as being unjust or unreasonable. If 1t finds the com imum rate which 1t regarded as just and reasonable. this rate to so into effect practically at once. that is. with in a reasonable time, and to stay in effect, unless reversed by the courts"
 No Democrat, 1t is also suggested. has said anything as far-reaching as this that President Roosevelt said in addition in his Raleigh speech:
 T hope that by law power will be conferred upon representatives of the government capable of performing the duty of public accountants carefully to examine into the books of railroads, when so ordered by the Interstate Com merce Commission. which should itself have power to prescribe what books, and what books only, should be kept by railroads. If there is in the mind of the Commission any suspicion that a certain railroad Is in any shape or way giving rebates or behaving im- properly. I wish the Commission to have power as a matter of right. not as matter of favor, to make full and exhaustive investigation of the re- ceipts and expenditures of the rail- roads. so that any violation or evasion of the law may be detected"
 The citation of these utterances of their own party alongside with the Presidents subsequent declarations fs made by Democrats to emphasize the point that Presider Roosevelt has come around toward tAe Democratic party and that he has quit his own party. as far as concerns anything in that party's platform on the railroad question.

BEFORE JUDGE TODAY
BURTON WILL co TO HEAR HIS sEN-
 FENCE.
Kew Trial wilf At 0nce Be Asked, sud When it is OverruEea, An Appeal
 Will Be Taken.

St Louis, Nov 26.--United States Sem ator J. Ralph Burton of Kansas, con victed early this morning in the federal court on indictment charging that be agreed to receive and did receive com pensation for practlcfng as an attor- ney for a corporation before the post oflce department. will be called before Judge Vandeventer at 10 o'clock tomor- row morning to receive sentence.
 The maximum penalty for the offense is imprisonment for two years and q fine of si0,000 on each of the six counts on which Senator Burton was found guilty.
 Senator Burton's attorneys stated to- night that they would immediately ask for new trial It Is practically certain that Judge vandeventer will overrule the motion and then a notice of appeal will be filed.
 Neither Frederick H. Lehmann of St. Louis, nor W. K. Haynes of Chicago, counsel for Senator Burton. would to- night state the grounds on which the appeal will be based. There is little doubt, however. that it will be contend ed the trial court erred in denying MT. Lehmann's motion to dismiss the entire communication on the grounds of lack of Jurisdiction in regard to the counts charging that Senator Burton agreed to receive compensation for acting as an attorney before the post ofiice depart ment; and 1t was not showed in the evidence adduced by the government that Senator Burton ever received com pensation for performing any such ser vices
 It is also probable that the bill of exceptions will contain reference to the cross examination of Senator Burton upon certain matters which were not referred to in the exception In chief. Those parts of the testimony to which the objections of the defense were over ruled. will complete the bill.
 Senator Burton remained at the Southern Hotel all day. He denied him self to visitors and refused requests for either an interview or written statement Tonight there was a con ference between the Senator and his at torneys.

HEAVY FOG PREVAILING

Lincoln, Mass, Nov. 26.--The most dis- astrous railroad wreck in this State for many years occurred at S:l5 o'clock to- night at Bakers Bridge Station, mile line of the FitchburE division of tho Boston and Maine Railroad.
 The regular Sunday night express which left Boston at 7:45 o'clock for Montreal. via the Rutland SysteDs crashed intoft rear of local train which started from Boston at 7:15 for points on the main line and the Marl- borough Branch.
 About fifteen persons were killed out- right. burned to death, or suffocated, and this many more were seriously in- jured. Many passengers sustained mic nor outs, bruises and burns.
 The wreck was primarily due to thick weather, which apparently obscured signals set by the forward train, which, ing in front of the station Tho Mon- treal train. drawn by two locomotives. and consisting of nine cars. crashed into the rear of the Marlborough Branch local. demoiishing the two rear cara
 Rear Cars Suffer Most.
 All the passengers killed and serious- ly Injured were in these. The passen- gers lived in Concord. west Acton, Maryard. Hudson. Marlboro and several smaller towns In the Assabet Valley.
 None Of the passengers on the MUn- treal train was seriously hurt, but the engineer and firemen of the leading To- comotive were killed
 The wreckage caught fire and some of the passengers were ineinerated. Few persons live in the vicinity of Bakers Bridge Station and no fire department was available, so the flames practically burned themselves out.
 The uninjured passengers and nuin- her of the train hands, assisted by vil~ lagers, went to the aid of the injured, and many persons were rescued.
 A special train was sent from Boston at 9:35 o'clock, and reached here in- side of a half hour. The train brought q number Of doctors. while many docS tors from Waitifsin efsd otI,er places ifi this section were semitic chs scene i8 carriages and by other trains.

NO CONFLICT AT sEBAsToPoL.
So Far MutineerS Have Conducted
 Themselves in Orderly FaahIOn.

St. Petersburg. Nov. 27.--G;30 a. m.) At midnight the Associated Press was informed by an official of the admiralty that the reports received up to that hour showed there had been no con lfct at Sebastopol yesterday.
 So far as the official knew, the crews of the Black Sea fleet were still loyal. but beyond that no information was vouchsafed. It was not known wheth- CT the troops which were ordered to proceed from Simferopol had arrived.
 The sailors who mutinied number about 4.000 and belong to various eouipages from the 2Sth to the 36th. Including the sailors on board the ships. there were about 5000 in Se- bastopol when the mutiny occurred. The troops in the garrison consisted of the Brest and Bielostok regiments with two battallons of artillery and one bat talion of fortress artillery. The Bic lostok regiment during the outbreak several weeks ago fired upon the sail ors and 1t Is said at the admiralty that no doubt is now entertained but that the mutIny was the result of carefully prepared work of revolutionary agfta- tors to whom the support given the mu- tineers at cronstadt by the workmen of st. Petersburg offered a powerful weapon.
 Profiting by the mistakes of the mu- tfneers at Cronstadt. however, those at Sebastopol took care to adopt meas ures to prevent their meeting degener- ating into a drunken riot, and SO far

MAY IMPORT WHEAT.
High Prices Prevail in Mexico Because
 Of Crop Shortage.

Mexico City. Nov. 26.--MilIers of Mexico are speaking of the necessity of beginning to import American wheat in larger quantities, This means that they expect the top rates of import due on wheat to be extended into next year.
 As consequence Of the shortage of the wheat crop. high prices prevail. As nearly as can be computed, the aggregate capacity of the mills Is G. coo barrels of flour daily, or 1900, ,oe0 annually, and the crop here Is inadc- quate to supply the demand.
 Cotton dealers here regard the floods that have prevailed in the La- guna district as likely to considerably lessen the total of the cotton crop, which was calculated at 9e,000 bales.

United States migration agent at San Francisco. has been stationed here to watch Chinese immigration to the United States and also to investi- gate the traffic in young girls who are being sent in large numbers from this country to San Francisco for immoral purposes.
