A SAN FRANCISCO PROTEST
Copy Of Message Sent by Chamber Oi
 Commerce to Senators.

President Marshall of the board of trade yesterday received a letter from the secretary of the San Francisco chamber Of commerce announcing that, pursuant to the telegram from the board, the trustees of the chamber of commerce of San Francisco had passed resolution of protest against joint statehood. Further, that they had re- quested of the California senators their earnest opposition to the bill through the following telegram, which was sent to each of them:
 At a meeting of the board of trus- tees, held on the 10th instant, the board requested me to respectfully ask your assistance in opposing the unit ing of the territories of Arizona and
Arizona republican., 1905-01-15

New Mexico into one state. Owing to the area, these two territories being so large, the board is of the opinion that it would make an unwieldy state, and, moreover, as the inhabitants of these two territories are evidently strongly opposed to this consolidation, it would be unwise for congress to take any action which was so much in opposi- tion to the wishes of the country af- fected. With best wishes for the new year, I have the pleasure to subscribe myself, Your truly,

ture to the rule that beauty depends on health.
 Women who see their beauty waning rarely associate the external change with failure of the womanly health. They do not understand the close rela- tion of the general physical health to the health of the delicate womanly or ganism, until after being cured of wom- anly diseases by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription they find the color returning to the cheek and the flesh to the body.
 oFavorite Prescription establishes regularity, dries weakening drains, heals inflammation and alteration and cures female weakness.

I took two bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and got well and hardy-gained twelve pounds in two months and was the picture of health. Your medicines have cured me.

GRAND JURY
Charges include the Giving of Rebates
to Shippers and Conspiracy
to obtain Such Con-
cessons
BY Associated Press.

by Associated RrCSS.
KANSAS CITY, Mo, Dec. 15.-F'our-
teen indictments were returned by the
federal grand jury here against COM
mon carriers, railroad officials, ship
pers and freight agents, charging the
giving of rebates and conspiracy to
gain rebates, as follows:
George II. Crosby of Chicago, general
traffic manager Of the Cricago, Bur-
lington g. quincy railroad.
George l.. Thomas of 320 Broadway,
New York, a merchandise broker.
I, b. Taggart, New York, Crosby's
chief clerk.
The Chicago e Alton railroad COM
pany and John ~ Faithorn and Il. A.
Wann. formerly vice president and gen
eral freight agent respectively of the
railroad company.
The CudahY Packing company.
Swift q CO.
The Armour Packing company.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
railroad company.
Nelson Morris. Edward Morris and
Ira N. Morris, comprising the partner
ship of Nelson Morris & Co.
d. Fl. Krcslly, Kansas City, freight
broker.
The charge against the Chicago &
Alton and Mcssrs. Faithorn and Wann
are Identical with those made in the
indictments returned by the federal
grand jury at Chicago on December IA.
The indictments against the pack
ing companies charge that they entered
into contract with the Burlington
railway to accept commissions on ship
ments of their products from East st.
Louis to New York for export. The
grand jury charges that the agreement
thus entered into provided for rate
Of twenty-five cents a hundred pounds
on these products. This was in July,
1905. The agreement was to continue
in force until January /, 1906 The
local rates applied on these shipments
between Kansas City and st. Louis.
In August. 1905. the joint rate on pack
ing house products was raised by the
Joint Traffic association to thirty five
cents between East st. Louis and New
York.
The Burlington. nevertheless, it is
declared, lived up to its % cent agree
ment with the packers in Kansas City
and under which agreement it prac-
tically carried all the packing house
products from the city except those of
the Schwarzschild and Sulzberger Pack
ing company.
Two indictments were returned
against George l.. Thomas of New
York, who is alleged to have had 4
contract with the Burlington by the
terms of which he was to receive a
certain percentage Of the freight rates
paid on all shipments more than speci-
fed tonnage from New York TO Kansas
city and vice versa.
The investigation made by the grand
jury revealed the fact that Thomas had
agencies at Kansas city, Omaha, Chi
cago, ST. Louis, AtchisOn, Milwaukee,
and other cities.
The specific charge against the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railway is
that of granting u rebate of Z cents a
hundred pounds to the Howard Mills
company of Wichita, Kas., on ship
ment of flour from Kansas City to New
York.

WARRINGTON. Dec. 15.--The senate
committee on interstate commerce to-
day considered the nomination Of
Franklin X. Lane of California to be
member OF the interstate commerce
commission. It was known to MEM
bers Of the committee that there was
opposition to the confirmation of Mr..
Lane and therefore Il was referred to
subcommittee, which will hear all OBJ
jectlons and report to the full COM
mlttee. No formal protest against the
nomination has been made, although It
has been declared by certain Pacific
coast senator's that they believe the APP
pointment should have been given TO a
Republican. The same view is held by
many eastern senators and It is pre-
dcted that the nomination may be held
up for some time.
1t was stated today that Senator Gull
lom desired that no action be taken
until he could consider the case. The
of Lane Is to succeed Com

would resign on account of i'll health.

CLAIMS HUMMEL GOT
$4,000 FROM MORSE
OPENS IN TRIAL
FOR CONSPIRACY
District Attorney Declares Defendant
Said He Could Break Off Marriage
for $15,ooo-one of the Latter's
Firm on the Witness Stand
BY Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-The prosecu-
ton opened its case today in the trial
of Abraham II. Hummel, the lawyer
charged with conspiracy in the cele-
brated Dodge-Morse divorce case. As
sistant District Attorney Rand, in
opening the case, said:
I'm this case the act of conspiracy
as described in law was committed and
the goods were delivered and paid for.
This particular project was a very
bold one. 1t was aimed not only at
the laws of the state, but its object
of attack was nothing less than the
institution of marriage and the ad-
ministration of justice.
Captain James Morse of the city
of Boston, ship owner, had heard
Mrs. Morse was divorced woman.
He started to work to see if he could
break up the marriage. He went to
the office of Hummel, this defendant,
and a few days later Hummel tele-
graphed to Morse in Boston that he
had found such clear traces OF fraud
in the case that he would take the
matter up il Captain Morse would pay
him $4,000. Captain Morse paid Hum
mel the $4,000 to upset his nephew's
marriage.
"In January, 1904, the grand jury
presented a charge OF perjury against
Dodge On the same day Dodge was
at the ST. Charles hotel, New Orleans,
on his way to Mexico. He knew about
Il before the distritc attorney. Why
should Hummel want to get Dodge
across the border? But Dodge was
pulled off the train in Texas.
"Humme telephoned to Captain
Morse: They've got our man. send
us money
.There was a constant demand by
Hummel from Captain Morse and not
less than $4,000 was paid by him."
The first witness was Abraham II.

MISSION
Discusses the Measure at Length and
Also Has a Spirited Tilt With
spooner over Presidents
Policy
BY Associated Press.

WASHINGTON Dec 15.-The Pana-
ma canal was again under considera-
tion by the senate today and Mr.. TILL
man occupied the most of the time
given to that subject except when he
gave way to questions or Interruptions
by other senators. He did not indicate
any intention of opposition to the pass
age of the appropriation bill, but he
criticised the methods of the canal COM
mission in many Of its transactions. He
raised the question as to whether
Chairman Shonts is still In the employ
of the Glover Leaf railroad, and said
that the railroad register still carried
his name as the head of that road. He
also sharply criticised the employment
of Secretary Bishop as a press repre-
sentative. and Mr. Hale Joined in this
censure, saying that Mr.. Bishops en-
ployment in that capacity is q refec-
ton not only on congress but on the
press. A part OF Mr.. Tillman's remarks
was devoted to criticism of the presi-
dents policy I'm Santo Domingo, and
MIR. Spooner defended the president s
course. When the senate adjourned
the bill was still pending, but there was
an agreement for vote tomorrow.
Before the Panama bill was taken
up the senate adopted a resolution call
ing upon the postmaster general for in
formation as to whether there is dis
elimination between college publica-
tions in the matter Of admission to the
mails as second class matter
When the senate convened Mr.. Gal
linger, from the committee on COM
merce, reported the merchant marine
bill, and stated that Mr.. Mallory prob
ably would present minority report

The Panama canal bill was laid be-
fore the senate and Mr.. Bacon pre-
sented an amendment requiring quar-
terly reports. giving lists Of officers and
employees Of the canal commission above
the grade of laborers and the salaries
paid them.
TiIIman and Spooner
A debate between Messrs. Spooner
and Tillman continued at some length.
Mr.. Spooner declared that the presi
dent has not done anything to carry
the unratified treaty with Santo Do
minEo into effect and insisted upon Mr..
fillman specifying anything. In reply
Mr. Tillman reiterated that our fleet
was kept in Dominican waters. He
said that Mr.. Spooner was a supple
acrobat in the use Of words. "1s not
our present attitude the same as it
would be if the treaty had been rati-
fied?' asked Mr.. Tillman, and Mr..
Spooner replied:
mot at all,'' adding that If the treaty
had been ratified the United States
would have its own revenue agents in
San Domingo, whereas the present
agents were the result of appointment
by President Morales.
