Seventeen Speeches for Hepburn Bill.

Seventeen speeches were made In the
House yesterday in favor of the Hepburn
railroad rate bill, and the railroads were
under fire all day long.
Mr.. Gaines OF West Virginia placed In
the Record evidence of combinations of
roads TO control the coal output of his
state, and traffic agreement between many
southern roads and steamship lines, indi-
eating a division of the territory to con-
troll business. He said ii was because COM
petition had ceased already that the pend
ing bill was demanded.
The day ended with general laugh at
Mr., Sulzer On. ", who made his appear
ance as a humorist. He toasted the op-
ponents of the bill, viewed with suspicion
the unanimous report and pointed out as
the African in the woodpile'' the word
suspended" which he said would apply
to every rate fixed until the poor shipper
was financially suspended In trying to en-
force it. However, he will vote for the
bill.
The list of speakers included Burnett
(Ala-), Lewis (Ga), Gudger IN. c., Dick
son Qll), Gillespie (Tex), Stanley Ky.),
Murdoch (Kan), Conner Qowa), Hubbard

Y. M. C. A. WORK STOPPED.
Ex-Chief Engineer Wallace's Asser
ton Before Senate Committee.

At the afternoon. session of the Senate
committee on inter-ocean canals yesterday
Mr.. Wallace said that in all his experience
in railroad construction he never had seen
men better fed and housed than they were
on the isthmus. The complaints he said
came from clerks who went to the fsthmus
from Washington or New York, who had
gotten the idea from musical comedies that
life in tropical climate was to lie in ham
mocks and enjoy themselves. Efforts to
establish a Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton on the isthmus for the benefit Of the
official objection to 1T, said Mr. Wallace.
He was asked to be more explicit, and
said that Governor Magoon had said that
Secretary Taft did not wish the work to
go. on. Mr.. Wallace thought this was be-
cause the community was Catholic.
Speaking of the Bahio dam Mr. Wallace
said he discovered that solid rock bottom
could not be found nearer than 167 feet
instead of 1913 feet, as had been shown by
the Walker borings.
He did not favor the eght-hour day, and
recommended that as few restrictions as
possible should be placed on Mr. Stevens,
and that TIE wolves should be kept off
his back
If tie canal work should be let by con-
tract said Mr.. Wallace, it would increase
the contract price about 30 per cent: He
thought the man in charge should be per-
mitted to get his men in China Japan
India, Spain, where he pleased. The
hearing was adjourned until o'clock to-
day.

ESCAPING THIEF WAS SHOT.
War Department VIII Defend Act Of
Private Dowd.

The War Department Is making ready to
test to the utmost its right to protect the
soldier who IN the execution Of lawful or
ders kills civilian. To that end prepare
tons are making to enter a sturdy defense
before the oyer and terminer court of Alle-
gheny county. Pa. in the case OF the senti-
MEL Dowd. who with his officer, Lieut..
Ralph Drury. was indicted for killing q
young man named Crowley two years ago
last September. while the latter was steal
Ing copper from the Allegheny arsenal
The Supreme Court of the United States
has just rendered an opinion in this case,
but that related only to the right of the
state judiciary to deal with the prisoner,
who was shot outside of the government
reservation. The testimony of two women
was to the effect that the man was fleeing
and was shot in the back. but medical tes-
timony which will be produced at the next
trial WILL 1t is expected, demonstrate the i'm
possibility of that being true
The new trial will begin In April, the Su-
preme Court having remanded the prisoners
to the custody of the state officials, and
both Dowd and Drury have been bailed to
appear when wanted. In that trial the War
Department will make the effort to- estat-
ush the right of a soldier to pursue an es-
Gaping prisoner beyond the bounds Of Its
sary to secure the protection of govern
ment property. Incidentally 1t will he
shown that the killing Of Crowley was not
an act of malice.
The War Department has been usually
Wiling and even anxious to surrender to
the civil authorities soldiers who transgress
the civil law, but 1t Is believed that the
Crowley case II allowed to stand as II is
would establish a most dangerous prece-
dent.
