NEEDS OF THE NATION.
Gen. Woodford Addresses Northwest
ern University Students

CHICAGO. June 22.-Ger. Stewart I.
Woodford, former minister to Spain, in
delivering the commencement address to
the graduates of Northwestern University
at the Auditorium last night spoke of what
he declared are the three great needs of
the characterization. reverence for law
and observance of truth. He took occasion
to criticize corporation officials who be
hind their artificial authority commit acts
that they would not consider as individ-
uals.i
He continued: THE corporation has
grown to be a power and 1t was born under
the protection OF the law. 1t holds property
because the law guards 1t. Its every yen-
ture is safeguarded by the sanctlty of tha
law. An officer OF a corporation who, to
seek increase of fortune for larger indvld-
ual personal enjoyment who tramples on
the law. who uses his position and influence
to evade the law. is traitor to the dearest
and best interests OF the republic"
A total of SIS degrees were conferred.
DR.. Wilbur Fske Tillett, president OF the
theological school of Vanderbilt University,
was given the degree of doctor OF sacred
theology.

EXCESSIVE" SAYS DUNNE.
Chicago Street Railways Valued at
SAT, 5O5,153

CHICAGO, June 22-The traction COM
panies gave the council committee on local
transportation yesterday the figures at
which they would agree to sell to the city
their present tangible properties The fig
ures are:
Chicago City Railway Company, 500 03,-
935; Union Traction Company, SOD, 401 us;
total, S47,5O5, 153.
Mayor Dunno declared the figures to be
grossly excessive" and the committee re-
ferred them to two experts for analysis and
a report.
The figures are based on the cost of re
production at current prices less cost or
bringing property at this date up TO a con-
dition operative!y equal to new" to quote
from the city railway statement.
That of the Union Traction Company puts
1t this way: This amount has been arrived
at by determining the cost, at current
prices. of reproducing the property in ques-
ton and deducting therefrom the amount
of money that would be required to place
the present property. in a condition as good
new"
Both statements contained the declaration
that the cost of changing the present cable
lines to trolleys and lowering the tunnels
would have to be added If the city wanted
to purchase after the Transformation.
