Contribution to the Frisco Relief Fund
Was Generous,

Contribution to the Frisco Relief Fund
Was Generous.
Des Moines, June 25-At meeting
of the Iowa committee appointed by
Governor CummiriS to handle the San
Francisco relief funds yesterday at the
Grant club, I. Friedrich, treasurer, re-
ported that $45,504.13 had been re-
ceived from the towns and cities of
the state outside of Des Moines. A
large part of this amount had prev
iously been forwarded to the general
relief committee at San Francisco and
the treasurer was directed to forward
the balance to the same committee.
Numerous requests had been made
to the committee in behalf of Santa
Rosa and other California cities out
side of San Fral cisco, but after as
careful an investi CATION as they were
able to make, the committee decided
not to authorize a division of the
funds, but to send the entire amount
received to San FIR ancisco. 1t is under
stood that the gen sral relief committee
at San Francisco is looking after the
needs of all the cities which were dam
aged by the earthquake and the result
ing fire, and is providing for the needy,
both in San Francisco and outside OF
that city.
Des Moines contributed s12,631.62 for
the San Francisco sufferers and the
full amount has been sent out.
The total contributions of Iowa
probably amounted to 100000. Nearly
all of the larger cities forwarded their
fund direct, instead of thru the state
committee Davenport contributed over
$25 900, which was the largest amount
raised in the state.

MERCHANTS AGAIN HOPEFUL.
Japan Appears Willing TO Reopen Door
in Manchuria.

Pekin. June 25.--,Leadng commercial
men are now taking a more hopeful
view of the prospects for securing a
share of the trade of Manchuria, and
the Japanese government appears will
ing to fulfill it's promise of an open
door in that country. AT least it has
shown better disposition than the
military authorities.
There has been friction between the
civil and military authorities concern
ing the policy to be pursued regarding
foreign trade privileges in Manchuria.
The civil authorities are more liberal
and it is believed that when the mill
tary administration is withdrawn for
eigners will be given greater freedom.
The newspapers urge the establish
ment Of Chinese customs at Dalny to
collect duties on goods destined for the
interior on the same basis as the ar
rangement with Germany at Kiao-
Chou.

of the rule, he had declared he was
satisfied with the restrictions.
He said he had now very different
appreciation of the statements made
ment embodied in the rule, He did
not believe the house would stultify it.
self by refusing an honest expression
on the educational clause.
I'VE have had an amusing illustra-
tion of legislation by special rule,
said Williams. of Mississippi. Even
the very sponsor of the bill (Gardner)
has had his eyes opened by the ques-
tions asked him. The effect of those
questions on the nervous system of the
gentleman from Massachusetts Is about
as amusing an illustration of the gem
eral system of legislation as anything
that has ever occurred in the house,
except the speakers reply to the gen
tlemans question, when he said every
thing was all right"
Williams further said the gentleman
from Massachusetts was having his
idols shattered so far as he believed
in the integrity of treatment received
in committee of the whole. he was
learning that in committee of the whole
a man could vote one way when there
was no record kept of his vote and
vote in wholly different manner on
the yea and nay vote. Watson of IN
diana, explained the rule WAS in ac-
cordance with parliamentary practice
of the house for hundred years and
that never in the history of the house
was a substitute bill voted on, except
as unit. The rule was adopted by
a vote of 151 to 50 and the house at
once went into committee of the whole
with Watson. of Indiana. in the chair.
for consideration of the immigration
bill.
