OBJECTIONS IN DETAIL.
MT. TiIlman Promises to Meet Them
 if Given Another Chance.


 Washington. July 5.-During the con- sideration today of the conference on the railroad rate bill in the senate. MT. Foraker indicated a purpose to insist upon explanation of the cuange made by the cOnferees in including lateral or branch lines among those upon whose request common carriers shall be required to put in switches or switch connections. Senator Tillman had ex- plained the amendments on which he thought it possible points of order could be made because of the presence of new matter but had not included the amendment in question. When MT. Tillman expressed the opinion that the conferees had not transgressed their authority in this matter the Ohio sen ator dissented, saying the suggestion had been made in the senate and been voted down. and that it was clearly new matter. He therefore thought that the senate should be told why the change had been made. Senator Till man replied that it was because of the 'tyrannical and outra geous conduct of the trunk lines in such cases as that of the Red Rock company in West Vir- ginia-''
 MT. Tillman expressed the opinion that the only conference change against WHICH pOlll OI or der will lie is that extending for sixty days the time when the rate bill shall go Into operation. That, he conceded, is clearly out Of or. der. The report was then temporarily laid aside and the senate took up and passed the naval appropriation bill
 Returning again to the railroad rate bilI Senator Foraker criticised the con ferees on account of the new matter saying that the conferees were not leg islauors, but merely intermediates. He also objected to the change in the anti. pass provision, making especial com plaint of the elimination of the railroad employees from the privileges of trans portation.
 Senator Tillman replied that the change had been made at the demand of the conference members of the house. He promised to do the best pos sible if the bill was sent back. "I don't know what we can accomplish" he said flor there are some hard headed men in the house as we'll as fin the senate"
 MT. Foraker found fault with the amendment prohibiting discrimination for or against passengers on account oI color. He said several negroes had complained of the provision as a rec

MEASURING CORN STALK
FARMERS WELL PLEASED.
Harvest Of the Crop in Indiana Will
Require the Services Of Many La
borers and They are Difficult to
Find at Present.

Farmers are busy getting Their
yard sticks and taking down some in
teresting measurements which will
cast light on corn's growth this year
in the county. Various methods are
used in taking measurements. Some
go into the corn field with a ladder
climb to the top of the corn stalk
which seems to be the highest in the
field and drop a tape line to the
ground. Others send their boys into
the field to shin up the stalks to the
top and drop line which is later
compared with a yard stick.
Still others take field glasses with
them to the field and compile the
distance to the top of the highe ST
stalk by the shadow of the standing
grain. The usual method pursued, how
ever, is for the farmer to go into the
field, chop off the stalk of corn with
an axe and proceed to measure the
fallen monarch at leisure.
Many farmers are wondering how
they will harvest their crop. The
ears grow so high that tall men are
in demand as huskers and even they
must straddle the corn stalk and bear
it down by mere force be1ore they
reach the ears, while a few take step
ladders to the field with them.

BILLIONS FOR NEW BUILDINGS.
Greatest Building Boom in Worlds History National

New York, October 6.-Neyer be

there been such boom in building
