An Interesting story is going the
relAads at White River Junction, the
outline of which il as follows: About
% years ago woman aud Young girl,
supposed to be her daughter, lived In
d little Old house in4tliat village. The
woman led everyone 10 believe that the
child was her own, as did the child
that the woman was her mother. The
two went away and passed out Of the
memory Of nearly everyone. Some few
weeks ago y woman lying on her death
bed IN a little New England town con-
fessed that the child which she had
claimed Tor her own was not hers, hut
that she had, for reasons best known
10 herself, allowed people to think that
she was her mother She said that
while living in the little cottage at
White River Junction she had buried
in tin can or box in the cellar pack
age Of papers belonging ia the child,
which represented a large or eonsid,
erahle fortune. The story il credited
IN White River Junction and the cellar
az the old house Is to be dug over in
an attempt to find the papers. If found
they viii be returned 10 their owner.

OPPOSITION TO BoNAPARrE.
Claimed That He Opposed Trust
Regulation In 1899.

Opposition to Charles J. Bonaparte as
Attorney General prevented the confirmation
OF William H. Moody as associate Justice
OF the Supreme Court of the United States
when his nomination was called up yester-
day In executive session of the Senate. The
objection to Mr.. Bonaparte was based upon
speech made by him in Chicago in Sep
TENDER, 1899. before the conference held
there to consider the trust question. In
that speech MT. Bonaparte declared that
legislative action In regulation or restraint
Of combinations was undesirable. When the
Moody nomination was paced before the
Senate yesterday afternoon Senator Gull
berson called attention to the fact that the
position he is to vacate will be filled by
Mr.. Bonaparte, and he then read extracts
from The Chicago speech in support of an
argument that Mr.. Bonaparte Is not quail
fled to take the responsibility OF enforcing
antitrust laws.
said that he had talked with Mr.. Bonaparte.
and had found him thoroughly in sympathy
with the administration in breaking up COM
binations of capital which operate in re-
straint OF trade. He also remarked that
probably there were men In the Senate
chamber whose minds had not undergone
some decided changes on many great ques-
lions since 1899, when conditions were far
different from what they are today.
Senator Rayner started to reply to TINS
speech, when Vice President Fairbanks OBJ
served that the nomination before the SEN
ate was that OF Mr.. Moody and not Mr..
Bonaparte This had the effect Of curtail-
ing the speechmaking, but Senator TeAer
said that it was customary for all nomina-
tons to go over one day after being re-
ported from committees, and he therefore
objected to further consideration.

through the Secretary OF State
All the insular governments should be
placed in one bureau. either in the Depart
ment of War or the Department of State.
1t Is mistake not so to arrange our
handling of these island at Washington
as to be able to take advantage of the ex-
pertence gained In one when dealing with
the problems that from time to time arise
in another.
In conclusion let me express my admira-
tfon for the work done by the Congress
when II enacted the law under which the
island Is now being administered. After
seing the island personally. and after Eve
years experience In connection with its
administration. It is but fair to those who
devised this law to say that II would be
well-nigh impossible to have devised any
other which In the actual working would
have accomplished better results

HIGH PRICE OF LUMBER.
Mr.. MiIler's Resolution for Investi-
eating the Cause.

Representative Miller Of Kansas has In
troduced a resolution in the House re-
uuesting the Secretary of Commerce ana
Labor to investigate the cause or the
high price of lumber in it's various stages
of manufacture, and with the particular
aim of discovering whether these high
prices are due to the control of the lum-
Der trade by a trust or combination OF
capital. Mr.. Miller said today, In dis
cussing his resolution:
For the last three years lumber has
advanced by regular steps at an astound-
ing rate in the southwest where so mucn
development is going on. Lumber mas
advanced from IS to $40 per thousand
year. so that common lumber costs as
much today as the best dressed lumoeI'
did four years ago. This IL the result
Of number Of combines all acting with
one common purpose. although having no
Immediate connection. The greatest OF
these is the Yellow Pine Manufacturers
Association of st. Louis This combine
fixes the price on the greatest mill out
put in the United States; controls all
mills in Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama.
Louisiana and Texas. This concern also
operates in absolute defiance of the anti
trust laws Of Arkansas.
I'm Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma
and western Texas, where thousands OF
people want to build homes. this grinding
combine has practically held up the de-
velopment of this splendid country. And
I propose to do whatever is in my power
to give the people relief from this or
ganized system OF robbery"

TO TAX INHERITANCES.
Bill Urged in tho House by MT.
PerkiuS.

Representative Perkins Of New York. the
original inheritance tax man, delivered
speech in the House OF Representatives
this afternoon urging the passage Of law
on the subject
"Unless the Supreme Court should change
its views" said Mr.. Perkins. there seems
no question that the general government
may constitutionally impose an inheritance
tax The Supreme Court has been known to
change its views, but am Inclined to think
It would be more apt to reverse its final de-
cison on the income tax, and again hold.
as il formerly held, that such tax was
constitutional, than to reverse itself on the
inheritance tax and hold that unconstitu-
tional.
"If the validity of such a tax can be es-
tablished by long acquiescence, certainly
this has been done. In 1897 an Inheritance
tax was imposed by this government. The
law received the approval of George wash
ington and his name was set to 1t. The
validity of this law was never questioned
and few years later the act was repealed.
I'm the hour of need of the civil war the
government again imposed an inheritance
tax. Its conStitutionahty was questioned
but 1t was affirmed.
IAN inheritance tax and a progressive IN
heritance tax were imposed in the Spanish
The court unanimously held that a pro-
gressive inheritance tax was constitution
ally imposed. The court said this was not
duty imposed on property, reai or per
sonal: that 1t was not subject to the rea-
sonine by which an income tax had been
declared unconstitutional.
Inheritance taxes have for some time
been imposed by most European countries.
Ours is now the only great power in which
no imposition of this kind is imposed by
the general government 1t has, however.
within recent years, been established In
most of the states. There are now IN
heritance taxes in thirty states or more.
'"The form legislation will take We can
not now say, but legislation of this kind

benefit the state II will assist in the solu-
ton Of social problems, 1t will not check
the development of enterprise or the desire
to acquire wealth on the part OF the indi-
viduaI. II will lessen some of the evils Of
our present condition, it will harm none
and help all"

RECEPTION WILL BE WARM.
Congressional Committee ANNOYED BY
DR.. Chancellor's Absence.

the District OF Columbia subcommittee of
the House appropriation committee spent
considerable time this afternoon, when it
should have been attending to business. in
waiting for Superintendent Chancellor of
the public schools to show up at the Cap
ttol and explain the school estimates sub
mitted to Congress for the fiscal year 1908
DR.. Chancellor was expected back in
Washington yesterday. Chairman Gillette
OF the District subcommittee was informed
Of this fact. and formally requested DR..
Chanceaiors appearance yesterday after
noon at 2 o'clock.
explained to the subcommittee over the
phone from the Franklin building that
the doctor would not arrive in Washington
until this morning. So another notice was
sent asking that he appear before the sub
committee at o'clock this afternoon Up
to the time The Stars report closed the
doctor had not appeared. but the subcom-
mittee absolutely declined to wait any
longer, and SO Mr.. William v. Cox of the
board Of education was hurriedly sum-
moned from the room Of the committee
on banking and currency, where he was
about to be heard by that committee.
Mr.. Cox found there wasn't anybody else
to submit the school estimates to the sub
committee and SO he undertook the job.
Assistant Superintendent Of Schools Percy
Hughes and former Superintendent of
Schools Stuart. who is now superintendent
of intermediate instruction, were quickly
summoned to the Capitol to answer any
questions that might stagger Mr. Cox, and
DR.. Everman of the board of education
came along to help out in whatever way he
could
All Of these gentlemen appeared some
what amazed at Superintendent Chancel-
lor's absence from the city today, and his
non-appearance before the committee the
second time, but they were discreet and
would not discuss the matter
The members of the subcommittee did
not go to much trouble to hide their annoy
ance. They had evidently had quoted to
them some Of DR.. Chancellor's expressions
concerning his independence of Congress.
and it looks as II the doctor might get a
warm and cordial reception when he does
appear, II he finally makes up his mind to
do SO.
This afternoon. however. the subcom-
mittee is going along as best it can with
out him. MI. Cox submitting the estimates
and former Superintendent Stuart doing
most of the explaining when explaining
happens to be necessary. The committee
has heard nothing from DR.. Chancellor and
has no idea when he may decide to come
back to WASHINGTON.

DEMAND FOR SMALL BILLS.
Shortage Ii Causing Bank officials
Trouble.

The teller Of local bank declared this
morning that any person who could furnish
to the New York banks 8. O0O. 900 In one
dollar bills could make per cent on the

Is causing great trouble to bank officials,
those whose banking houses are within
stones throw of the treasury suffering as
much as those In cities thousand miles
from Washington. United States Treasurer
Treat II most concerned over the shortage
in bills Of small denominations. He re-
ceived telegram this morning from the
New Orleans clearing house that the dim
Guilty there Il intense. The telegram says
that crops cannot be shipped to market. and
there may be great loss to the cotton. fruit
and vegetable growers In the south. The
demand for one and two dollar bills to pay
for labor Il tremendous. The treasury has
plenty Of one and two dollar certificates In
Its vaults. but these cannot be used without
q corresponding amount OF silver to redeem
them.
The reports to the treasury this morning
showed that there are only one thousand
four hundred and two silver dollars in the
vault. One year ago there was twenty
thousand. The shortage OF small bills II not
due to lack OF printing facilities bur- ac-
cording to law. there must be money In the
treasury to redeem them. and this shortage
In silver dollars delays the printing.
