Thomas warehouse caught fire Tues
day afternoon and for a time it looked
as if the car would be destroyed, but
quick action on the part of those who
saw the car burning saved it from any
serious damage The car had been
set out for loading and a fire had
been started to warm it up. In some
manner the bottom of the car caught
fire, and before the flames were .extin-
guished good sized hole was burned
in the car. The freight was switch
ing at the time and the engine pulled
the car out from the string of cars
near by so that in case the car got to
burning briskly no other property
would be destroyed. Healey & CO.
were getting ready to load potatoes
in the car when it caught fire.

HEARING OF COMPLAINTS
AGAINST THE RAIL ROADS

WASHINGTON The Interstate
Commerce commission began a series
of hearings in the matter of it's COM
plant against ten railroads and three
private car companies, alleging "un-
just and unreasonable" charges for
the refrigeration of fruits and vege-
tables in transit. 1t is understood that
the action of the commission in in
itiating and prosecuting the COM
plants has the double purpose of es
tablishing it's jurisdiction over private
car lines and of correcting the evils
complained of. The contest will be on
the point of jurisdiction. Each of the
companies against which complaint
has been filed has made an answer
denying the commission has authority
of it's business.

IF the barter and gift of cigarettes
and cigarette papers is not prohibited
by the act, IL IS manifest that the pur-
pose and intent of the legislature is
thwarted and we think that purpose
and intent is plainly to he derived from
the title of ;he act itself"
The court holds HAT the intent of
the act is sufficiently expressed in the
title.
1.-THE legislature undoubtedly sup.
posed that the use OF cigarettes was
injurious to the public ia general
through its effect upon the health and
morals of the public. The intention
was to remove those articles from the
avenues Of commerce, to Danish them

proposed Anglo-Cuban treaty has de.
veloped here the fact that the Wash

ciates the reasons of the Cuban PEG

official view here is that the treaty is
distinctly disadvantageous to Cuba in
that it precludes that country from

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Taft has
approved a settlement arranged by the
the Philippine government which COM
pletes the purchase of the Dominican
friar lands in the Philippine Islands.
Those lands include nearly half Of
those purchased from the frlars and
amount to about 100000 acres. After
the contracts were signed It was
found that mistake had occurred by
reason of difference in the Spanish
and Lngllsh versions of the surveys.
The Spanish version made the price
100000 more than the English YER

to eight different tracts were defective
While Secretary Taft was in the Is
lands he effected a comprome by
which the titles we're to be made COM
plete and the purchae money paid ac-
cording to the English version while
the 100000 in controversy was to be
submitted to arbitration. Since his
return the secretary has received a ca

A CIRCULAR SENT.
soundirJ the People Regarding Ma
tionaI Legisat on.

tionaI Legislation.
NEW YORK-For the purpose of
securing a comprehensive expression
of public opinion on the question of
national control of life insurance
companies, United States Senator
John f. Dryden of New Jersey has
sent out many copies of the following
circular letter. with the appended list
of questions to be answered:
In his last annual message, PFesi-
dent Roosevelt called the attention OF
congress to the necessity for federal
legislation providing for the regula-
zion and control of insurance COM
panies transacting interstate and in
ternational business. In compliance
with an increasing demand from in
surance policy holders and others in
terested in the public welfare. intro
duced into the last congress a bill to
his effect, providing that there
should be established within the bu-
reau of corporations n division of in
surance. and that policies of insurance
were deemed to be articles of COM
merce and instrumentalities thereof.
This was introduced too late to Sc
cure final consideration, but the de-.
mand for such a measure has become
even more apparent in the meantime
and | expect to reintroduce the same,
possibly with slight notifications,
into the congress which is to meet in
December
The bill will be introduced on be-
half of the policy holders of all Amer
ican insurance companies in the firm
belief that their present and future
interests demand the additional pro-
lection of a federal statute regulating
insurance transactions between the
state, in addition, of course, to such
supervision and regulation as consti-
tutionally belongs to the states of
which the companies derive their
charters. Furthermore, that by elm,
mating considerable amount of,
needless state supervision, the follow
ing important benefits are expected to
result:
First-An increase in the security
OF, the policy holders.
Second-A decrease in the expense
rate and the cost of insurance.
Third-A decrease in the burden Of
needless taxation.
Fourth-A decrease in the amount
of clerical labor now indispensable to
meet the requirements of some fifty
states and territories.
Sixth-Adequate national protec-
ton for American companies trans
acting business in foreign countries.

ham on Saturday afternoon addressed

that his declared purpose to protect
policyholders against the officials of

cere, and declares it to be praisworthy,
but declines to act on the committee
suggested, thinking that preclpitate
action while the present investigation
is on may impair rtaher than increase
the advantage to be gained by policy
holders.
