WASHINGTON, D. c., June -.
TO say that Washington was sur
prised by the announcement that
Senator Crane had become engag-
ed to Josephine Broadman is to put
the case mildly. Washington was
jolted.
The surprise was caused by the
Crane feature of the affair. Murray
Crane was supposed to be immune.
He came to Washington with rep
utation for immunity. He had been
widower for as many years as it
takes baby to become a stalwart
man with a heavy beard. During
all these years Murray Crane has
not looked at a woman.
In western Massachusetts there
is a tradition that Murray Crane
once spoke to an eligible girl. But
it is recorded that he blushed and
Immediately fled. He declTed all
invitations, and sidestepped any
functions where ladies were to be
present.
He is an unofficial devotee of the
simple life. He requires little to
make him happy. A box of all
tobacco cigarettes and a deck of
cards in the company of Me retir-
ed doctor and the local hardware
merchant suffice.
In Washington he has been diff
ferent. He was swept into the cur
rent of rate legislation. He was
by the rich Senator Kean,
of New Jersey. He was entertain
ed at the Keane mansion, and
the Keane sisters met the
Broadman girls. The latter are of
the tall and dashing sort. They ride
play bridge and do things that
make the old ladies sit up and
wipe their glasses.
For example, it is related that
one OF Miss Josephine's admirers
was required by her to ride his
horse into the banquet room of the
Chevy Chase club while a dinner
was in progress. The lady wanted
and feared the young
man lacked dash

Paris, June Is, 1906.


Dear Percy:
Your letter regarding the manu-
facture of beef, ham and other
meats by synthesis was very inter
esting, showing, as it did, the pos
sibilities of chemistry, and | was
especially gratified to learn the
chemistry department is widea-
wake. But it is of no practical val
ne, as the process Is too expensive.
At the present time, and so long as
we have the meat business so well
in hand, 1t is cheaper to sell real
meat, so we must continue to do
so.
What interests me more than
anything else just now is that fell
low Roosevelt's attack on the stock
yards. All know about 1t is what

to beat the Chicago, Milwaukee &

Much speculation has been
aroused over the location of the
terminals Of the Milwaukee road in
Spokane. Charles Carson, who
owns property at the north end
of the Monroe street bridge and
on the west side of Monroe street,
is said to have received an offer
from the Milwaukee for the prop
erty. Carson was in conference
with officials of the road in Seat
tie last week.
Last winter railroad surveyors
ran lines down the north bank of
the river from Monroe street to
above the Great Northern crossing.

He is very quiet about his financ-
ing, as he is about his politics. He
prefers to put his holdings in some
body else's name. Even when it is
charity he does this.
One political coup executed since
he came to Washington is enough
alone to entitle Crane to a place in
the hall of fame. This is the con-
version of President Roosevelt to
the broad court review feature of
the rate bill, and the reconciliation
of the president to the Aldrich
bunch in the senate. How Crane
did it nobody will ever know But
he did.
