HOUSE COMMITTEE UNABLE TO
GET TOGETHER ON SHIP
SUBSIDY MEASURE.
REPUBLICAN MEMBERS TO CAUCUS
EFFORT WILL BE MADE TO COM.
PEI RECALCITRANTS TO
JOIN MAJORITY.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE house
committee on merchant marine has
failed to reach an agreement on a
ship subsidy bill Four of the Repub-
lican members of the committee ex.
pressed themselves as opposed to re-
porting any measure and caucus OF
the Republican members of the COM
mittee will be held to consider the
question.
Chairman Grosvenor presented the
Gallinger bill to the committee with
amendments combining government aid
to Oriental and South American ship
ping and opposition of the Republicans
to the measure developed at once,
Finally the committee adjourned with
out action till Saturday.
Four of the Republican members,
Fordney (Mich), Wilson Qll), Bird
sail Qa) and Hinshaw tNeb.), an
nounced that they would not be bound
by the action of the caucus. Repre-
sentative Wilson stated to the chair
man that he had no thought Of accept
ing the caucus action as binding. Mr..
Grosyenor replied:
We'll, 1t doesn't make any differ
ence whether you attend or not"
But I'm going to attend. That's
what my constituents send me here
for" Mr.. Wilson replied. II am OPP
posed to ship subsidy and my constitu-
ents are opposed to it."
At present nine members Of the CON-
mittee are said to be for Oriental and
South American ship subsidy, while
nine are opposed. Only one Democrat
on the committee, McDermott of New
Jersey, favors government aid to ship
ping.

FRENCH POLICE IN ATTENDANCE
First Masses Celebrated Outside the
Pale of Law.

Paris, Dec. 1t.-There was an i'm
peal to their parishioners to attend the
first masses celebrated outside of the
pale of the law. A correspondent of
the Associated Press visited a dozen
churches, including Notre Dame des
Victories, st. Germain d'Auxerrois,
where the signal for the st. Bartholo-
NEW massacre was given; st. Roch
de Madelaine and st. Augustine. Ev-
erywhere it was the same story. The
front gates of the churches were
closed, but the Catholics, by the gray
light of dawn, were streaming through
the side portals. The interiors of the
buildings were well filed; in several
was there the slightest attempt to in
terfere with the service or create a
disturbance. There were three police
men stationed outside the porticos of
the churches to prevent any possible
disorder, while police officers in plain
clothes were on duty inside to note
the infractions of the law, taking the
names of the officiating priests and
approximating the number of those
present with the object of making re-
ports to the justices of police.
Early dispatches from the depart
ments say that wherever mass was
celebrated charges were drawn up and
summonses issued. At Chalons the
Able Renaudin claimed that the
church bells were not rung and that
no person was invited to mass and
that therefore the assemblage had not
the character Of a public meeting,
whereupon he was compelled by po-
lice officer to inscribe his protest upon
the summons.

BRANCHES IN MANY CITIES
"kNOCKiNGr ALLEGED CAUSE OF
FAILURE OF CUMMINGS CON-
MISSION COMPANY.

st. Paul, Dec. 14.-The Cummings
Commission company, one of the larg-
est and best known brokerage houses
in the Twin Cities, has suspended
business.
The following statement, sent out to
all of the Cummings Offices through
out this state, the Dakotas and as far
north as Winnipeg, sums up briefly
the cause of the fanHre:
"The systematic knocking that has
been going on against this company
for some time has created such a con
dition of affairs that our attorneys ad
wise us to close up all accounts so as
to protect in a measure all alike. 1t
will be a few days before we can give
results"
A. ]. Cummings, head of the con.
cern, says the failure has come about
simply because business has fallen off
and heavy expenses have eaten up the
resources of the company
The Cummings Commission com
pany is what is known as a private
wire house, with multitude of offices
in the towns and cities of the North
west, catering to the country specu-
lative trade

SOME OPPOSITION DEVELOPS.
Moody and sonaparte Finally Con-
firmed by Senate.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE senate
has confirmed the nominations OF
William II. Moody of Massachusetts
to be an associate justice of the SUI
preme court of the United States !;
Charles j. Bonaparte of Maryland to
be attorney general; Victor H. Metcalf
of California to be secretary of the
navy, and Oscar S. Straus of New
York to be secretary of commerce.
The opposition to Messrs. Moody
and Bonaparte, which had been raised
in the senate by number of Demo
cratic senators, was not strongly
pressed and no roll call was asked
for. On the viva voce vote for Mr..
Bonaparte, however. there were a
number of negative votes on the
minority side, estimated at about fif-
teen.
The senate ratified the general act
by the Algeciras conference. Opposi-
ton by the Democrats compelled the
adoption of a resolution disclaiming
responsibility for the participation of
the United States in the programme
as to the future of Morocco

HAD ENACTED PART ON STAGE
Actor Attempts Suicide in Japanese
Fashion.

New York, Dec. 14.-A sensational
Sixth avenue saloon by a man who de-
scribed himself as Rankin Duvall, an
actor, forty years of age. Duvall en-
tered the saloon and walking up to
the. lunch counter picked up a long
bladed cheese knife and, turning to
the bartender with a smile, asked:
MAY | use this?"
Certainly" replied the bartender,
thinking he was about to carve some
cheese for himself. Instead, to the
horror of the people in the saloon, he
unbuttoned his coat and vest and
pressing the point of the knife to his
abdomen, threw himself heavily to the
floor so that the big blade ripped his
body. Before any of the men close by
could spring on him and wrest the
knife from him he had thrust the
weapon twice more into the frightful
wound.
Duvall did not lose consciousness
and when asked why he had done
such thing replied: ''Oh, I'm a
criminal; that's all"
At the hospital where Duvall was
taken 1t is said he has only slight
chance for recovery.
Duvall is said to be the son of a
Baltimore merchant. He recently
played in the Darling of the Gods, -
in the last act of which he nightly
enacted committal of suicide in Japa-
nese fashion. At the hospital he said
he lately has been playing in Madame
Butterfly"

TEN MEN I'M sMAsHuP.
Bad Spill in six-Day Bicycle Race at
New York.

New York.
New York. Dec. H.-One of the
worst spills in Hhe six-day bicycle race
now on at Madison Square Garden oc-
Cured at 1925 a. m. Ten of the thir-
teen riders went down in smashup.
The spill came after mad sprint i'll
which Fogler was prominent.
Eddie Root was picking up his part
ner, Fogler when the latter's wheel
was run into by Matt Downey. In a
second there was crash and the
thousands of spectators who had re-
manned in the garden during the night
saw ten of the riders scattered over
the track. The police and spectators
jumped on the track and helped to
pick up the fallen and stunned riders.
Vansni of the French-Italian team
was thrown over the protecting fence
into one of the boxes. He sustained
painful injuries, including cash on
his thigh, and Hollister of the Salt
Lake City team was said to be suffer
ing from a possible fracture Of the
skull.
The race was suspended for quite a
while and the injured men were car
ried to their quarters. In the mean
time a corps of carpenters hurried to
repair the track, which was ripped and
torn for fully twenty yards.
All the riders with the exception of
Hollister and Vanoni were able to
continue when the race was resumed
after delay of nearly an hour and a
half. The partners of the two injured
men continued the grind and 1t was
believed at that time that both Hol-
lister and Vanoni would be able to
resume after two or three hours rest.

STATES CONSENT NEEDED
MINNESOTA MAY BLOCK NEW is.
SUE OF GREAT NORTH.
ERN STOCK.

ST. Paul, Dec. 14.-President Hills
proposed Issuance of $60,oO0.000 In
new stock to the shareholders of the
Great Northern Railway company may
be sidetracked for the time being.
Attorney General E. T. Young, in an.
swer to questions regarding the con-
templated issue of new stock, issued
the following statement:
ain my opinion there is no doubt but
that under proper Interpretation of
the law as 1t now stands no new stock
can be issued by a domestic railway
company without obtaining the con.
sent of the state, through the railway
commission.
Before such consent can be given
the commission must give a public
hearing on the question, in which hear.
ing the purpose for which the money
is to be used and the necessity for
the new issue of stock must be fully
shown.
"In showing the necessity for this
issue the company would have to show
what 1t did with the proceeds of the
$25,000,000 stock issued last February
which has not as yet been accounted
for In any public way.
"This proposed issue would increase
the stock of the Great Northern com
pany to S210,O00,000.
"The bonds of the system are now
about 100000, which would make
the capitalization of the 5000 miles of
road $425, 100000, which exceeds s70.
900 per mile for both main line and
branches, where much of the road
especially the branch lines, cost not
to exceed $4,000 per mile.
"The dividends on this excess cap
italization Is an unwarranted tax on
the patrons of the road and, instead
of increasing its stock, which Is now
about $4,000 per mile, the company
ought to show some justification for
its present capitalization"
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1906-12-14
COST LIMIT is $4,000, 900.
Plans of Proposed Big Batteship Sub

PRESIDENT CHARGED WITH US
ING HIS INFLUENCE AT RE-
CENT ELECTION.
SENT SECRETARY TAFT TO IDAHO
SENATOR DUBOIS CLAIMS NOR.
MONlSM WAS ONLY ISSUE
IN THAT STATE.

Washington, Dec. 14.-President
Roosevelt was directly charged In the
senate during the day with using his
influence for the election of Repub-
lican Mormon candidates in the recent
election in Idaho and Utah. The
charge was made by Senator Dubois
in the course Of speech In which he
discussed the right of Reed Smoot to
a seat in the senate. The address
was of considerable length, the first
portion being devoted to a review of
the Mormon church Mr.. Dubois as
serted that polygamous marriages
were still being contracted, although
surreptitously, and that an aristocracy
of polygamists was being built up by
the church officials, who now arrange
and select these polygamous mar
riages. But no record of polygamous
marriages Is kept which Is available
for the American people. Because of
this he pointed out the futility of pass
ing national law prohibiting the
practice.
AS to Senator Smoot, he said, it
made no difference whether he was
Or was not polygamist.
"Smoot," he said, represents the
church and not the state and would
do the bidding of the church before
he would serve the real interests of
the state or of the nation"
Turning his attention to the cam
paign preceding the recent election
Mr.. Dubois read the press dispatches
of Oct. 20, which stated the president
had sent Secretary Taft into Idaho
to speak In
Advocacy Of Law and Order.
At that time, Mr.. Dubois said he had
telegraphed the president that the only
issue In Idaho was the desire of the
Mormon hierarchy to continue to dom.
mate the politics Of the state and that
the president had been misled If he
thought there was any other issue.
Mr.. Dubois referred to messages OF
Presidents Buchanan, Johnson, Grant,
Hayes, Garfield, Arthur and Cleveland,
citing what he termed ''the menace of
Mormonism," and proceeded:
II call attention to these messages
Of the presidents for two purposes:
"One to indicate the views Of our
former executives; the other to mark
the contrast between them and the
present occupant of the White House.
Mormonism Is more insidious, more
dangerous and greater menace to
our government and civilization today
than 1t was at any particular period
when these messages were addressed
to congress. Yet President Roosevelt
does not deem the subject worthy of
mention In message filed with sug-
gestions.
The non Mormon citizenship of
Utah and Of Idaho think they are en-
titled to the support of law abiding
citizens everywhere in their efforts to
maintain American citizenship in these
Mormon states and If they cannot re-
ceive that they have the right to de-
mand that the president of the United
States shall not use the great power
vested In him in the interest of those
law defying and un-American organiza-
tions In their determination to rule
the politics of this section Of our
country"
