ance that the land question would not
be settled by the present government.
but by the national assembly was re-
ceived by Premier White yesterday.
Interesting accounts of the inter-
view were published today.
The premier pointed out that the
agrarian problem could not be solved
by division of the state lands alone
amounting to only 16,O0O,00O acres
much of which is forest lands. The
peasants must be prepared 20 buy pri-
Vate lands on the easy installment
plan as provided by the imperial ukase
of November last.
The spokesman of the delegation re-
piled that the peasants did not wish
to buy the lands, but were determined
to receive them as a gift FROM the gov
eminent.
At the close of an informal discus
sion the premier thanked heaven that
the conditions in Russia were different
from those prevailing in other coun-
tries. He said, according to the pub
lished reports, that a French president
was dependent upon the electors and
an English king on Jewish bankers
but the Russian emperor was ndepen-
dent The contamination desired by
the revolutonistS that the country be
ruled by Poles, Armenians and Jews
would not be realized. The premier
is said TO have added:
The greatness and happiness of
Russia are due to the emperor. Without
the emperor you who now wear long
coats and high hats would still be
peasants"
The premier is reported to have re-
marked in conclusion:
IF only it had not been for this I'M
happy war, if only victory should be
ON our side, all would now be we'll; but
God did not so will it,"
At the conclusion of the conference
the premier promised the delegation
that they would be received in au-
dience by the emperor.

RATE BILL DISCUSSION ENDED
Final Action to Take Place in House
Today

WASHINGTON, Feb. by continu-
ing its session practically to Z O'Clock
the house concluded all preliminary
steps to the passage of the railroad rate
bill. ordered a roll call on the measure
and put off final action until tomorrow.
The time for amendment came at 4
o'clock, and for three hours following
one amendment after another came up,
was read, debated in some instances
and went down to defeat. So fierce
was the struggle to amend that often
when a paragraph of the bill was con-
cluded in the reading dozen members
waived their amendments and shouted
for recognition.
Not one of these was adopted. They
contained all manner of propositions,
such as regulating prefentials, the long
and short haul, free passes, court pro-
cedure. whole rate bills and parts of
bills; all went by the board.
Previous to the exciting proceedings
the house had been entertained for five
| hours by the oratory of it's best
speakers. w. Bourke Cochran of New
York gave his approval to the measure
in an elaborate speech. Mr.. Mann of
Illinois followed. Then the minority
leader, Mr.. Williams of mississippi, eX.
pounded the measure and congratulated
everybody on its success. Chairman
Hepburn closed the debate in a COM
prehensive speech, dealing with the
arguments of its opponents and the
terms of the bill
Mr.. Hepburn began the concluding
speech on the bill at 2:45 p. m. He
took up in turn the points made in OPP
position to the bill and disposed of
each in brief manner First he depre-
Gated the effort to claim political credit.
He reviewed the progress and develop
ment of railroads during the past
twenty years to show that the inter
state commerce act of that time had
not impeded railroad progress.
Touching on the construction of
words which had been made a point of
opposition. Mr.. Hepburn declared the
utter futility of getting a Legislative
unanimity on that point. He asserted
that not a member of the house could
write twentywOrd sentence that
would not be capable of two construc-
| tinons.
You doubtless have heard the story
of the little girl whose people were to
move to Missouri and who prayed,
'Goodby, God, we are going to move
to Missouri laughter.
Her brother heard her and in his
joy at the prospect of travel amended
the prayer in this way:
Good. by God. we are going to move
to Missouri. prolonged lauGhter)
He said that no court rights were lost
under the bill, and concluded with an
| expression of the hope that the bill
would be sent to the senate without
amendment.
He concluded at O'clock and asked
at once for the reading of the bill
A number of other amendments were
defeated and the bill was reported to
the house exactly as it came from Mr..
Hepburn's committee.
A roll call was demanded on the pass
age of the bill, Just as it was about TO
begin the house, at 655 y. m, ad.

Acting on the information furnished
by the boys, Joseph Gianello was ar
rested early last evening and taken to
the central police station. He stoutly
denied any completely in the affair
and endeavored to throw the blame
upon the boys.
The police are investigating the mat
ter and will have the history of the
Gianello family looked up. They hold
the theory that the two boys have
been taught to steal by their father.
Tagin, the Jew in one of Dickens
books had "a school for crime and the
youngsters under his control were sent
out on errands of theft and this may
be modern instance of the same
thing.
