.T|LLMAN FORGOT
RUGGED COURTESY,
Pitchfork Tactics Brought the
Most Profound Rebukc.
NOTES FROM NATIONAL CAPITAL,

NOiLS TkOm NAliONAL NAPI Al.
Washington, Jan. %. Special.
Senator Tillman's sensational
attack on President Roosevelt
has been the principal subject of
conversation here this week.
There is a general feeling that
the South Carolina Senator for
once forgot the rugged courtesy
which has marked the fiercest of
his previous oratorical weddings
of the scourge on the Senate
floor. The Tillman of Tuesdays
outbreak was more like the
"Pitchfork Ben" of old guberna-
torial days than at any time in
recent years. Astonishment was
expressed In some quarters, not
ably the editorial columns of the
Washington Post, that none of
Mr.. Roosevelt's friends in the
Senate came to his defense.
There were rumors to the effect
that Senator Lodge was to come
forward as the Presidents cham
pion, but it was finally decided
the better policy to take no ac-
tion that would fan the flames Of
controversy. Consequently the
Senate contented itself with tab
ling Mr.. Tillman's resolution for
an enquiry into the Minor Morris
incident by an overwhelming
vote, and with the earnest disap-
proval of the South Carolina
Senator's language expressed by
Senators Daniel and Hale during
the course of his speech.
The pure food and ship subsidy
bills have been engaging the
Senate's attention in the absence
of more momentous business.
Senator Gallinger is trying to
steer the subsidy measure
through it's devious ways of SEN
atorial debate, while Senator
Hepburn of Idaho is the foremost
champion of the bill making
more stringent the legal provi-
sions against food adulteration.
Many petitions favoring the
Hepburn bill have been receiv-
ed. 1t is being strongly support
ed in the Senate and is believed
to have an excellent chance of
enactment. The ship subsidy
bill is in a different case. Sena-
tor Gallinger is making manful
fight for his pet measure, but the
hostile current seems too strong
to be overcome during the pres
ent session.
In the meantime the situation
as regards the paramount issue
of railroad rate regulation is be-
coming steadily clearer. The
National Board of Trade, COM
posed of the most influential Of
American commercial organiza-
tions, has been holding It's annu-
al convention in Washington and
has adopted resolutions on the
rate question, recommending that
the power of passing on the reas-
onableness of a given rate shall
be entrusted to the Federal
courts, complaint to be made by
the Interstate Commerce Com
and the Commission to
substitute by order of the court
a reasonable maximum rate for
one found excessive by that
body. The rate so fixed is to be
subject to revision in the proper
court upon proof that it is less
than reasonable. These recon-
mendations are practically iden-
tical with the provisions of the
Elkins rate bill as amended and
reintroduced by its author.
Hope that the House Commit

gress mas departed aIber liking
It's temporary headquarters at
Cincinnati, the home Of Captain
j. S. Ellison, secretary of the
executive committee. Resolu-
tions were passed urging Con-
gress to appropriate $50, ,0OO, 600
for the Improvement Of the coun~
try's waterways and recommend-
ing that work be concentrated on
the streams and ports of first i'm
portance and that less money be
wasted on streams of no value
to commerce. Under such apol-
icy the Mississippi valley and
its connections with the Lakes
will probably come in for the
greater share of attention. En-
phasis was laid on the import
ance of waterways in regulating
transportation rates.

ity and minority members, and
Mr.. Davey of Louisiana on Thurs
day introduced a bill embodying
Democratic ideas on rate regula-
tion. The Davey bill is not ex-
pected to win support from auy
except the most radical advo-
Gates of governmentrate control.
1t is criticised as being even
more stringent in its provisions
than any of the various preced-
ing measures in that it gives the
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion power to fix an absolute in
stead of a maximum rate.
