Water Improves Coal.

Water Improves Coal.
A year and half ago the British atE-
thorities at Portsmouth sunk two TOMS
of coal in iron crates in basin OF Wiz
ter at the dock yards. AT the sa1mss
time a similar quantity of coal wsa.s
stored in the open air and covereGa
with tarpaulins. AT intervals OF SIX
months samples of each storage baVs9N

Revolutionary Leaders In America.
Leaders of the Russian revolutionary
movement are now in this country to
begin an active campaign for financial
support and popular sympathy. Maxim
Gorky, who is noted as the poet and
novelist of the revolution, arrived at
New York last week, with his wife,
and on stepping ashore he was greeted
with cheers from a thousand or more
Russian Socialists and American SYM
pathizers. Among those to greet him

on the charge of extensive frauds
against the government in connection
with Savannah harbor contracts, were

Coal Road Officials Quizzed.
The Interstate commerce commission
began it's investigation at Philadelphia
into the operation of the coal railroads.
Despite the manifest hostility of the
railroad officials summoned as wit
nesses it was shown that through the
statistical bureaus of three railway
systems agreements exist governing
the transportation and distribution OF
soft coal and fixing the division of coal
traffic These arrangements have been
operative for ten years, although IN
violation Of the existing laws. Also it
was admitted that by means OF pri-
vate car companies coal could be serv-
ed at stated times, while dealers not
owning cars cannot guarantee the date
on which their coal will be delivered.
It appeared that the Pennsylvania had
refused to handle cars unless the own
er had at least 500 cars, involving an
outlay of $50O,0OO. Officials of many
railroads were shown to have personal
interests in the coal mining companies.
The Pennsylvania is the leader of the
combine.
Live Stock Exchange Trust.
The Kansas supreme court has de-

all mortgages made through members

all Of the mortgages commission of at
least so cents a head is required was

LEGISL A TIVE
Bailey on Court Limitation.


Almost the entire membership of the
senate in their seats, scores of repre-
sentatives standing in the rear of the
chamber and galleries packed with
spectators listened for over three hours
to an address by Senator Bailey of
Texas, who is recognized as the leader
of the minority, the purpose of which
was to demonstrate that congress has
the power to limit the subjects of con-
sideration before the federal courts. 1t
was generally regarded as the greatest
speech of the Texans career Both
Spooner and Knox had made the as
sertion that there was difference be-
tween judicial power and jurisdiction,
but this Bailey denied and quoted nu-
merous precedents in support Of his
position. He held that the review by
the courts Of the interstate commerce
commissions orders fixing railroad
rates would be FASTENED rather than
retarded if the order were not suspend
ed by injunction
The speech had the unusual success
Of Immediately affecting votes on the
pending rate BILL Just before it's con-
clusion Senator Hale of Maine confess
ed himself in agreement with Bailey
as to the prohibition of injunction pro-
ceedings against rate orders. Bailey
faid that he did not believe that review
by the courts could be denied under
the constitution. Senator Aldrich then
expressed his willingness to have the
whole question brought to a vote at an
early date.

Twentieth Century Train Record.

Twentieth Century Train Record.
The general office of the Lake Shore
at Cleveland announced that the Twen-
tieth Century Limited had made 1OS
miles in ninety-nine minutes between
Cleveland and Toledo This is thought
to establish a new speed record for
regular train service.
New Short Line to Mexico.
Railroad men are discussing with
much interest the great project Of the
B. F. Yoakum syndicate to establish
a new through line from the great
lakes to Mexico City, with branch
lines into the northwest This line is
to reduce the travelling distance be-
tween Chicago and Mexico City more
than 600 miles. The plan comes to
light in the purchase of the Colorado
and Southern by Yoakum, and it is un-
derstood that the syndicate has both
construction and operating arrange
ment with the National Railroad of
Mexico. The Rock Island and Frisco
systems are involved in the new route,
and the Denver and Galveston line is
to be extended into the wheatfelds of
the northwest All of the gulf ports
will be tapped, and it is expected that
the syndicate will come into control of
the Rock Island system, in which case
Yoakum would control the largest
group of railroads in the United
States.

what was the best word Gorky said:
"No tears Hope sure and certain" ;"
He said that during the voyage he had
spent twelve hours a day writing AS

Of it, and the revolutionists were not

from Russia after his Imprisonment

Narodny, however, is the organizing
force in the movement, and in con-
versation reported for the Saturday
Evening Post he tells the story Of ''un-
derground Russia" leading up to the
present purpose, to kindle comprehen-
sive, armed revolution. He declares
that majority of the officers and men
Of the Russian army are now in SYM
pathy and says that at given signal
all the leaders will return to join the
great rebellion, which Is likely to start
in Finland Other leaders are at work
all over Europe. He says that mem

Witte's Ultimatum to Gear.
The overwhelming victory Of the Lib
erals, or Constitutional Democrats, in
all the larger cities of Russia in the
elections for the douma was said to
have caused the second and final resig-
nation Of Premier Witte unless Minis
ter of the Interior Durnovo should re-
tire. The premier demands that the
ear grant written constitution and
abandon all idea of keeping the nation
Ii parliament in autOcratic submission.
On April s the electoral colleges. 12S
out Of 81 provinces, chose 178 mem
oers to the douma, and not single
reactionary candidate was chosen. A
surprising feature is that in almost ev-
cry instance the candidate chosen by
the peasants were educated Progress

position will control the national par

PRESSING PEONAGE CHARGE
ASSISTANT UNITED STATES AT
TORNEY NOW IN GEORGIA.

Federal Authorities Seeking to I'm
earth Illegal Imprisonment in the
South. Grand Jury Investigates.
The federal grand jury for the
northern district of Georgia, in
which is located Terrell county, is
now investigating charges of peonage
brought against a number of citi-
zens of this state as the result of
an investigation which has been con-
Quoted by Assistant Attorney General
Charles w. Russell, who has been in
Georgia for the past ten days.
The Constitution says the investi-
cation was brought to light by the
presence around the federal build
ing in Atlanta of a number of for
eigners who claim to have been held
in bondage by Georgians living down
the West Point road. From Newman
and other points in that section have
also come reports of the investiga-
lions being made by the government
in an effort to stir up trouble for
Georgians in this direction.
1t is understood that Assistant At
torney-General Russell has been sent
out by the special direction of Pres
ident Roosevelt, and in this connec-
ton it will be remembered that an
effort to fasten the charge of peonage
on a number of prominent Georgia
citizens was made by government at
torneys two years ago, but the cru
SADIE proved unsuccessful. 1t seems
that the result of the Investigations
made at that time did not satisfy
the officials of the department of
justice, for the effort is now being
renewed.
The Atlanta, Birmingham and At
with Iaborers which it has brought
to Georgia to work on its line.
Many of these men, after making
contracts to work out their railroad
fare, have proceeded to jump the
camps as soon after reaching them
as possible. Railroad officials who
tried to force these laborers to live
up to the agreements they had
made found theselves facing charges
of peonage.
A peculiar fact is that the present
investigation is said to relate en-
tirely to alleged illegal Imprisonment
OF foreigners who have been brought
to Georgia by immigration agencies.
The crusade of two years ago was
made in the interest Of negroes who
claimed that they were held without
due process of law.
Gentlemen interested in attracting
immigrants to the south declare that
these charges have in number of
instances been trumped up by agents
of railroads leading to the west in
order to keep immigrants out of the
south.

THE COST OF PICKING COTTON.
A Hundred Million Dollars to Gath
err SOuth's Great Crop.

A Hundred Million Dollars to Gath
err South's Great Crop.
1t requires something like 1901
600 cotton pickers, each picking 100
pounds of seed cotton on an average
for each picker and working 100
days, to pick a 100000 bale crop.
Of course, some pick more than 100
pounds of seed cotton and some less.
There are days when on account of
rain no cotton can be picked. The
average of 100 pounds a day for 100
days is not far wrong as an estimate
of the picker's work.
At so cents hundred weight the
cost of picking a bale is 50. At
rs cents a hundredweight the cost
is s11.25 a bale Therefore the cost
of picking the entire crop will range
somewhere between $90,000,000 and
S112, 100000.
Besides the great expense to the
cotton growers there is the added ex-
pense to many of hauling the pickers
to and from the cotton fields. Wag-
ons hauling out pickers are rafting
on the streets of Dawson every night
from IL O'Clock until daylight.

tom Played Them Both.
About the first thing Hoke Smith
did when he announced his candida
cy for the governorship was to have
Tom Simmons, then on The Journal,
corral the other Tom and carry him
to the Smith offices in the Peters
building. Without wasting any IN
necessary words Hoke told Tom if
he showed his hand in the campaign
If any of his inspectors were found
hustling for Howell-he, Hudson,
would have opposition on his hands
forthwith.
"Now, Tom had been keeping his
ears to the ground, as is the wont
of your smooth politician in whose
eyes an Office in hand is of more
value than all the claims of gratitude
and all the issues that could be
crowded into all of the bushes in
the state, and he gave prompt as
surance that neither he nor his
would throw a straw in the way of
the Hoke Smith boom. From that
day through to the end Tom tOted
water on both shoulders just as
deity as it was ever done in the his
tory of American politics. There
was much talk OF what he was going
to do for Howell when "the right
time came,' and even the governor
was fooled up to the last; for when
the clouds rolled by Tom was found
sitting, serene and smiling, on the
front seat of the Hoke Smith band
wagon. And he is there, smiling and
serene, today; he has fairly earned
his title-Mister Slick"
