vlsional extension of treaty duties be-
tween the two countries will arouse
much criticism, but he repealed the as
sertion that It was the fault Of the
German government that no treaty had
been made.
"Why," DIR. Delbrueck said, ibid the
government conclude this provisional
agreement? Because our market cam
not do without a considerable part Of
American products? Whom did we
want to help2 Our own industry"

that German industry would be de-
pendent upon the United States so long
as the greater part of the worlds cot
ton supply was grown there and so
long as the chief part of the worlds
copper output Is produced in the
United States.
"See to IT," he said, that cotton is
grown in our colonies and that copper
be found there"

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-By unani-

terstate and foreign commerce decided
today to make a favorable report on
the Tillman resolution as amended.
In its amended form the resolution
provided for the investigation by the
interstate commerce commission OF
railroad determinations and monopo-
lies in coal and OIL"
The compromise measure is a COM
bination of the Tillman, Gillespie and
Campbell resolutions. 1t retains the
number and title of the Tillman reso-
luton, but narrows it by striking out
the proposed investigation of monop-
olies and determinations in all prod
ucts handled by railroads.
The measure is broader than the
Gillespie resolution in that it includes
all coal, while the Gillespie resolution
related to bituminous coal, and ii
practically includes the Campbell res

ISOLATION, spoke before the house COM
mittee on Interstate and foreign COM

burn pure food bill
He said the provisions relating to
whisky did not insure purity and were
misleading.
A straight whisky may be either
pure or impure, he said, and blended
whisky also may be either pure or inn
pure.
All whisky is an artificial and not
a natural product, and he said II is
not fair to compel distillers to make
public their formula for havoring
whisky. as this is a trade secret and
has nothing to do with the purity or
impurity of the product, so far as
wholesomeness is concerned.

Ticket

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 20.-The
spring municipal elections were held
throughout Pennsylvania today. Ideal
weather prevailed and a heavy vote
was cast in many localities.
Philadelphia elected two magis-
trates, seventeen select and thirteen
common councilmen, twelve school
directors in each of the forty-three
wards, constables and division election
officers.
Outside of seven small disturbances
in wards where there were spirited
contests, there was very little disorder
There were, however. numerous arrests
for Illegal voting. Little interest was
displayed in the contest for magis-
trates, as the majority and minority
parties were each entitled to one
magistrate and each party named only
one candidate.
Great interest was taken in the cleo
ton of eouncilmen, notably in the Sec
ond and Fifteenth wards. Party
lines were wiped out in many in
stances. In some of the wards the city
party and Lincoln party, which swept
the city last November, were split and
were fighting each other, with the help
of factions from the old Republican
organizations or the Democrats.
