SILT ON BILL
DEMOCRATS ARE APART ON THE
RAILROAD RATE BILL.
The Late Conference Developed
There Was No Unison of Action
Possible.

Washington, April 20.--With con-
siderable ill-feling and no agreement
on any phase of the controversy on
the railroad rate bill, a conference of
democratic senators, which contin'
ued practically all day Thursday,
was adjourned without any date hav-
ing been fixed for another gathering
Speeches were made counselling
an agreement on some amendment or
20 support the house bill without
amendment, party harmony being
urged as judicious politics This
program tentatively was adopted.
Senator Bailey then called from the
room some of the supporters of his
amendment for a limited court re-
view, and for non-suspension of Or
ders OF the interstate commerce COM
mission During their consultation
motion to adjourn was made by
Senator Raynor and carried.
When Senator Bailey and his col
leagues returned they found the con-
ference broke up. The Texas sena-
tor protested holly against the course
The general expression of opinion,
however, was that the differences
would be smoothed over, and that
within a few days another effort
would be made to get the minority
together.
The principal differences in the
conferences were precipitated by a
speech made by Senator Bailey that
his court feature provided for a linn
tied review. Exception was taken by
his colleague. Senator Culberson,
who declared that 1t was a broad re-
view, and from this point the discus
sion passed to the several pending
amendments to prevent restraining
orders being issued to interfere with
rates established by the interstate
commerce commission. II developed
that majority of the democrats
would vote for an amendment of this
character. Several senators said af-
ter the adjournment of the confer
ence that IL il should be decided to
invoke the party caucus to bring
about an agreement It would result
in the minority supporting the house
bill without amendment.

MYSTERIOUS CAVE.
Near Decatur, Ala, Which Is Said TO
BE Belching Smoke.

Decatur, Ala, April 20.-Since
the appalling. earthquake at San
Francisco, California. a most pecu-
liar phenomenon has been witnessed
at Fennel's cave. four miles south
west of this city.
Great volumes of smoke can now
be seen issuing from the cave. but
what causes II, or where it comes
from can not be ascertained. This
is the first time that smoke has ever
been known to have issued from 1t
and as a result many negroes and
other superstitious people are very
much alarmed over the matter.
The mouth opens at the foot of a
hill. and the cave extends for several
miles back under the mountain. Its
full length is unknown. as it has new
er been thoroughly explored. Many
Legendary stories are related of this
cave and many people of a supersti-
tious turn OF mind have an utter hor-
ror of the place.
II is related that many years ago
the iHuldnS udu Il CutSt VI SOlu bui-
led in one of the rooms of the cave,
and that one day a desperate fight
took place between the Indians who
were guarding the gold. and party
OF whites. Several whites and In
dams are said to have been killed in
the engagement, but the Indians fl
nally won, and, as the story goes, the
chest of gold is still in the cave. But
no one dares go near 1t. for II is
guarded by the spirit of a departed
brave who wards off all who attempt
to take the treasure.
There is still another story that
the cave was the hiding place OF
John Murrel. the noted outlaw, in his
palmy days of plumber and murder.
1t is said that years ago several hui
man bones washed out of this cave
during a heavy flood, which were be-
lieved to have been those OF Murrefs
victims of years before.

The passage of the national pure
food law being almost assured, CON
sideration of its probable effect is
general. The measure Is necessarily
negative. because officials can effect
little without public cooperation.
The measure as Il stands is aimed
not so much to punish manufacturers
as to enable the people to know what
foods are fit and what UNIT for con-
sumption. In other words, pure
food will not be generally eaten un-
less the American people take enough
interest TO discriminate and to buy
the good in preference to the inferior
Right here is where the manufactur-
ers of and dealers in impure food
NAV defeat the purpose OF such leg
islation by offering, as they easily
can do. impure products at price
below the reach of producers of pure
articles. Impure food may be sold
at a profit at less than the cost OF
pure food and unless. after the effect
of the bill has become general, a ma
jority of the people are willing to
pay the difference. impure food still
will constitute large proportion OF
the American consumption.
