TO PUT ON THE CURB
Sensational Report Likely to Follow
the Revelations of Coal and Railroad
Graft Before the Interstate Commits
sion-coneress Will Be Urged to
Drastic Action.

Philadelphia. May 21.--The revel2-
tons of favoritsm and graft" in the
relations between the railroads and the
coal companies made to the interstate
commerce commission will lead. 1t is
reliably reported, to a sensational re-
port TO congress embodying the follow =
Ing recommendations:
The government supervision of the
anthracite coal trade.
Drastic national legislation providing
penalties, forhidding not only the direct
or indirect ownership of coal mines by
railroad companies, but the direct or
indirect ownership by officers of rail-
road companies.
A direct report that the coal carry
ing railroads have violated the inter-
state commerce regulations in the dis
tribution of cars.
A statement that many roads. in
handling Standard Oil commerce, have
violated the provisions of the Sherman
law.
No report regarding individual pcos-
ecutions.
If the Investigations of the inter-
state commerce commission were TO
stop today the recommendations of
that body would be about as above set
forth. and from information still in
hand the members of the commission
believe that their further probing into
the anthracite and bitumnous coal
situation and the Standard Oil trade
will only result in supplying further
foundation for such report.
The announcement that they will not
report in favor of prosecution of any
officers of the railroads investigated
certainly does not mean that there Will
be no such prosecutions. The commas
sion, however, does not expect at this
time to make any statement to con-
gress upon this subject, but to leave
the matter entirely in the hands of the
counsel appointed by the attorney gen
eral to consider such violations of the
Sherman interstate law as may be
brought out by the testimony. The
counsel having this part of the inves-
tigation in charge will give no hint as
to their probable course.
The last of the commissioners has
now left Philadelphia, altho two of
them will return on Tuesday night 10
take up the investigation of the bitum-
inous coal roads. The others will con-
tinue the Standard Oil probe in Cleve-
land. After these hearings are COM
pleted the anthracite roads again VIII
become the final object of attention of
the part of the commission.

Speaker OF the House Preparing

Washington. May 21,--That Hon.
house, is TO enter the lists formally as
a candidate for the presidency has
been pretty definitely established here.
A distinguished member of the re-
publican side of the house is now pre-
pairing speech. which he plans To de-

Not long ago Mr.. Cannon was inter-
viewed on the question of whether he
would be a candidate for the presi-

yond the breastworks entirely, Speaker
Cannon made out a clever case to dem
onstrate that the buzzing of the white
house bee has not yet disturbed him.
Nevertheless, he is going right along
making preparations for hard fight
for the nomination.
The fact that Mr.. Cannon is really
TO be a factor in the presidential race
is of Importance, in view of the num-
Der of western men that are looming
up as likely to seek the presidency. By
reason of his geographical position,
and from the fact that he would be
satisfactory to conservative interests,
with the further fact that under his
speakership the house has followed
quite consistently the policies of the
pr4sident, it is generally recognized the
Dafville man is likely to be formd-
able figure in the contest for the NOM
nation. He will be greatly in the way
of Secretary Shaw, Vice President
Fairbanks, and any other western men
that may arise to seek the presidency.
He will also conflict with the ambitions
! of men like Root, Knox, Foraker or any
other eastern men that may seek the
! nomination, because he will be able to
draw much eastern support himself

Called for by Council Upon
Sale of Intoxicants
to Minors.

One of the important meetings of
the year to be held by the Board of
Public Safety will be that of Mon
day night, when a special session is to
convene for the purpose Of preparing
a report demanded by the City Coun-
Gil upon the sale of intoxicants to
minors.
AS the police officers, who are to
enforce the laws, come under the jur-
isdiction of the Board of Safety that
body will make a report upon what
is needed to stop the practice as
pointed out by the society Of colored
women. The latter brought the mat
ter to the attention Of the council,
and from the manner In which that
body took up the question, the men,
bers are determined to put an end to
children, in some cases barely six
years of age, being sent to saloons to
purchase beer and other intoxicants
for their parents. 1t is expected that
the report of the Board of Safety upon
the matter referred TO it will be in
tereSting.

sida2od will Ln the tria! CO Police

PUbL|C WORKS
BOARD IN
SESSION
Held a Special Meeting to
Consider Disposal of
City Garbage.

A special session of the Board of
Public Works was held yesterday af-
ternoon, the meeting being for the
purpose of considering the disposal of
the city garbage, inasmuch as the
council recently ordered the board to
cease dumping it at Cypress Pond
The board received the plans for
remodeling the old Masonic building
at the corner of Zarragossa and Com
mandancia streets, which is to be
converted into a truck house for one
of the fire department hose companies.
The plans were accepted and bids will
be invited for remOdeling the struc-
ture. If the present plans are follow
ed the building will be a nne one for
the purpose designed.
The report of Engineer Geo. ROM
mel, Jr., upon the condition of the
Romano street sewer, was received
and the recommendations adopted.
The disposal of garbage was then
taken up, and the street superinten-
dent instructed to cease placing garb-
age and dead animals on the property
near Cypress Pond, to which objec-
tons had been made by the owners.
The question of where to place this
garbage was then discussed at some
length, and the board has under ad-
visement placing all of the refuse and
dead animals in the city clay pits.
A number of applications for build
ing permits were received and grant

why does a woman button her gar
ments on the left side?" The question
is discussed in the London Tailor and
Cutter by several correspondents, one
of whom advances this theory: For
ladies' to have the buttonholes in the
right side of their garments has its
origin in the times when it was neces-
sary for a lady when going out at night
TO have a gentleman escort, who sup
ported her upon his left arm, leaving
his right or sword arm at liberty.
Thus the lady's left hand would be free
to fasten or unfasten her cloak at her
own pleasure and without inconven-
ience."

7 He DISCHARGE
Of FLOMATON
OPERATORS
Causes Arrest of Three Off
Gals of the Louisville &
Nashville.

The discharge of operators at Flo
maton by the Louisville & Nashville
Railroad has caused the arrest of
three officials Of that company. 1t is
alleged that the men were discharged
because they were members of the
telegraphers union, and the case is
being pushed by the Order of Railway
Telegraphers. The Mobile cores
pendent of the Montgomery Advertis-
er in speaking Of the arrest of the
officials says:
1T has transpired that the arrest
of T. f. Farris, of FlOmatOn, chief
train dispatcher for the Louisville K
Nashville Railroad at that place, a
couple of days ago on indictment by
the federal grand jury for violation of
the interstate commerce law, was but
the fore-runner of other arrests. Ser
vice has been made upon H. G. Bar
clay, general agent of the Louisville
& Nashville here, OF summons issued
on an indictment by the grand pury
against the company itself, and upon
Charles Marshall, of New Orleans, d.
vision superintendent of the New Or
leans and Mobile division of the road,
for similar violations of the federal
statutes.
1T seems that the three arrests all
grew out of the complaints by the
Order of Railway Telegraphess shat
members of the union were being dis
charged by the railroad officials be-
cause of the fact that they belonged
to the union The section of the in
terstate commerce law that is alleged
to have been violated prohibits any
discrimination between employees.
THE indictments against Farris and
against the railroad company both
grew out of the discharge of tele-
graphers at Flomaton, so far as can
be ascertained United States Mar
shall Dean, however, upon being re-
minded that Superintendent Marshall
had Jurisdiction only between Mobile
and New Orleans. intimated that other
cases of violation of the law lad been
discovered than that at Flomaton. He
mentioned Theodore especially as one
of the places between Mobile and New
Orleans that might" prove to be the
scene of trouble between the railroad
officials and employees. 1t is known
that former telegraphers at Theodore
testified before the grand jury during
its session"
