quently, the opinion expressed that
in this case and in the following
cases in which the federal govern.
ment proposes to try conclusions
with the same dynasty, the govern
ment will be worsted, and that the
System" will win out.
1t is not that the people express
ing their opinion have any doubt
that the government has a good
case; they are clear in their belief
that the System" has been a flag
rant transgressor of law, and that
it ought TO be punished; but they
do not expect that it will be. That
it will find ways of defeating the
ends of justice they have no doubt
Its shrewd lawyers will entangle
the case in all manner of techni-
calities; and its money will be used
to corrupt courts, to tamper with
witnesses and jurors and to pre-
vent any clear decision.
STANDARD Oil is bigger than the
government" men say. You'll see;
they won't be punished; they'll
come out on top"
This is not the universal opin-
ion; there are many who take a
more hopeful view; but, on the
whole, this is, think, a very com
mon opinion of the man in the
street"
There is not the slightest doubt
that many of the representatives
OF the great combination believe
themselves to be stronger than any
and all the powers of government.

The worlds history plainly shows
that God never called woman out
of her sphere except on occasions
of signal exigencies, when men
were SO abased that they were not
to be found equal to tasks that
legitimately belonged to them. This
was true way back yonder in that
early age when heroic Deborah
ruled all Israel for 40 years.

THAT IN THE FUTURE NO

But woman is not on this account
going to be dishonored or her pride
mortified. AS civilization advances
woman shall be crowned queen in
a higher sense-a queen swaying
an imperial scepter over human
hearts, queen of home out of which
sweet empire influences will go
forth that shall govern the world

THE REVEREND MADISON c.
PETERS ON THE VEXED
CUES TON OF WOMAN'S
RIGHTS.

(In a recent address the Rev.
Madison c. Peters, pastor of the
Church of the Epiphany, New York,
attacked the theory of so called
Woman's Rights. A storm of dis
approval, mainly from club women,
descended upon the clergyman. In
the following statement, written for
The Press, Rev. Peters renews his
attack and makes clear his conten-
tions)
Why is the number of women
who occupy high official positions
less today than ever before? Why
is it that as civilization advances,
the impression deepens on the
popular mind that political position
is not woman's truest and noblest
mission?
1t certainly is not that lighter
estimate is placed upon woman's
ability and force of character than
before, but because of the develop
ment of our own being the true
spheres of the sexes are better de-
fined.
Mans sphere, by his more robust
constitution, is designed by Provi-
dence to be the more public one

Inheritance TAX
May Be Imposed Is the Opinion of
Mr.. Perkins.

Washington. the supreme
court should change its views there
seems no question but that the general
government may constitutionally i'm
pose an inheritance tax" was an opin-
ion laid down today in the house by
Representative Perkins of New York,
who spoke at length on the subject.
Expediency, according to the speaker,
was the only question that should be
debated in connection with an Inherit
ance tax. He said that there was no
reason that a man having $50, 100000
to dispose of should assert the right to
give every dollar of it to his children.
''If the father has the desire that his
descendants should be enormously rich
people in the community, this is vul-
gar desire, entitled to no considera-
tion," he said. Certainly it is no ad-
vantage to have daughters if they are
allowed to inherit sum so vast that it
becomes temptation to some worth
less foreign nobleman to marry them"
Recent scandals connected with two
of Americas best-known rich families
gave Mr.. Perkins an opportunity to say
that sit is no advantage to Miss Van
derbilt or Miss Gould that enormous
fortunes attracted the eager gaze of
foreign fOrtune-hunterS.

The shooting, according to the police

in the upper portion of the house,
rushed down stairs with a small re-
volver in her hand and fired three
shots at her father, one of the bullets
penetrating the brain. The mother

COTTON LOST HEAVILY.

Memphis, Tenn.-The cotton trade

II, SAC, 900 bales, and values received a
blow from which they may be slow to
recover until it is demonstrated beyond
any question that the crop is not so
large as present ideas based on the gov

prices was almost 81 per bale from the

HIS CHICAGO SPEECH
OPPOSITION IN SENATE TO BONA.
parties CONFIRMATION.
WORDS UTTERED YEARS AGO
Culberson Declares MaryIander Not
Qualified to Enforce Anti
Trust Laws.

Washington, Dec. 11.--Opposition to
Charles j. Bonaparte as attorney gen.
eral prevented the confirmation OF
William H. Moody as associate justice
of the supreme court of the United
States, when his nomination was
called up in executive session Of the
senate. The opposition to Mr.. Bona
parte was based upon speech made
by him in Chicago in September, 1899,
before the conference held there to
consider the trust question. In that
speech Mr.. Bonaparte declared that
legislative action in regulation of re-
strainst of combinations was undesir-
able. When the Moody nomination
was placed before the senate Senator
Culberson called attention to the fact
that the position Mr.. Moody is to va
cate will be filled by Mr.. Bonaparte
and he then read extracts from the
Chicago speech in support of an argu-
ment that Mr.. Bonaparte is not quail
fed to take the responsibility OF en-
forcing antitrust laws.
Found Bonaparte in Sympathy.
Senator Knox, formerly attorney
general, said that he had talked with
Mr.. Bonaparte and had found him
thoroughly in sympathy with the ad-
ministration in breaking up combina-
tions of capital which operate in re-
straint of trade. He also remarked
that probably there were few men in
the senate chamber whose minds had
not undergone some decided changes
ON many great questions since 1899,
when conditions were far different
from what they are today.
Senator Raynor started to reply to
this speech, when Vice President
Fairbanks observed that the nomina-
ton before the senate was that Of
Mr.. Moody and not Mr.. Bonaparte.
This had the effect of curtailing the
speech-making, but Senator Teller
said that it was customary for all
nominations to go over one day after
being reported from committees, and
he therefore objected to further con-
sideration.
A large number Of nominations were
confirmed. Among them were Maj.
Gen. Arthur Macarthur, to be lieu
tenant general; Jesse M. Lee, to be
major general.

severe injury of several others. Ship
ping in the harbor was damaged con-
siderably and in all quarters Of the
city tottering walls were hurled to the
ground, blocking streets and inter.
rupting traffic. Owing to danger from
falling walls, street car service was
entirely suspended.
John Rynehart, a laborer employed
at the corner of Stockton and Broad
way, was caught under a falling wall
and killed. One of his companions,
Adrian Esnoil, was so severely in
jured that his life is despaired Of IN
every section of the burned district
ruins were toppled over.
Two frame houses, one at the cor
ner of Washington and Leavenworth
streets, the other near Leavenworth
and Broadway, were leveled by the
gale. The Burnett school was un-

On the bay the storm was terrific.
The ferry boats, proceeding with ex-
traordinary caution, were tossed
about until scores of passengers were
made sick. The lower decks were
awash most of the time, and occasion
ally the crest Of wave leaped on the
hurricane decks.
What threatened to result in a Sc
rious panic occurred on the Key
Route boat San Francisco, when an
unusually large wave struck the YES
sci, carrying her to leeward. Women
screamed and tainted, men rushed for
the lifeboats, and only the advice and
command of the cool-headed prevent
ed injury and perhaps loss of life,
among the other passengers.
Double anchor chains did not pre-
vent some of the larger vessels in the
harbor from slipping their moorings.
The Chinese work junk Whand Ho,
which lay south of the X. ferry slips
last night, dragged her anchors until
she rested in the channel immediate
ly in front Of the ferries, increasing
the difficulties Of navigation. The
British ship Palgrave slipped her
moorings shortly after o'clock and
drifted on the rocky shore of Atca-
traza Island, where for a time it
seemed that she would be beaten to
pieces. Two tugs went to her assist
ance and towed her into deep water.
