made public speech. and shrank from address
ing hundred men. Yet in his Office he could
present audactous views and proceed to carry
them out. as when he ordered all the Western
Union poles TO be cut down along the Pennsyl-
vania lines. He was not only regarded as the
leading factor IN the development of the railway
interests of the country. but a broad minded
man. able to take a full view OF any great
problem and deduCe the correct conclusions.
In physique he was tall and deep chested,
with an impressive appearance. His chin was
square, with indications Of determined will
mustache. In speech he was deliberate but con-
and daring, and when he had reached a con-
clusion he acted promptly, not being deferred by
money considerations or precedents. When he
assumed the presidency of the Pennsylvania
road he announced that he would give no in
tervieWs 10 newspapers. as he could not see
every one. and to talk TO one and not to another
would be unfair. and to this he adhered. His
statements were always made in official form.
When he returned from Europe last summer
he announced that he would not resign as the
result of the disclosures that officials of the
Pennsylvania system held stock in coal COM
panies. But the investigation. in which It was
shown that his own son interested IN the
Keystone Coal Company and that discrmna-
tions were made of which he should have
known. affected him seriously.
Those who knew A. J. Cassatt best said that
he was a man OF remarkable intelligence and
force, and that had he sought success in any
other career than that to which he devoted his
life he would have been found in the forefront.

Saturday, April 7.

Washington, April Z. - The house
did not indulge itself in the usual half
holiday today, but continued the con-
sideration Of the postofice appropria-
tion bill, and in the latitude accorded
under general debate the discussion
took on wide range, including rail-
way mail pay, increased pay for rural
letter carriers, the American smelter
trust and the corrupt use of money
in elections, with side lights on ma
turalization laws.
Dalzell, Republican, of Pennsylva-
MIA, called up the bill amending the in
ternal revenue laws to prevent the
double taxation of certain distilled
spirits. He asked that the bill be con-
sidered by the house as in committee of
the whole, possibly anticipating some
debate. Before he could make any
statement, the speaker had the bill
read third time, indorsed and passed,
while general laughter over the expe-
ditious way the speaker disposed u
legislation ran around the chamber.

Salt Lake, April 10.--That there is

gist of decision rendered here today
by Judge John A. Marshall, of the

May End Race Problem.

Washington, April 10,--Dr. s. Har-
ris, professor Of medicine in the Uni
versity Of Alabama, at Mobile, talked
to the president today about the ravages
Of consumption among the negroes of
the South. He expressed the fear, and
he added that his opinion was concurr.
ed in by the medical fraternity general
ly in the South, that the negro race
was likely to become extinct in this
country, Statistics showed, he declaI-
ed, that the death rate among the mem
bers Of the negro race in America was
greater than the birth rate.
Condon globe. (Condon, Gilliam Co., Or.) 189?-1919, 1906-04-20

Washington, April 1O.-For more
than four hours today Bailey held the
undivided attention Of the senate with
q speech in reply 10 spooner and Knox,
and Just before its conclusion there was
q significant suggestion from Hale indi-
eating the possibility Of an understand
ing and an early vote on the railroad
rate bill.
The day was one Of the most notable
in the recent history OF the senate.
Very few senators were absent at any
time during the day and every seat in
the galleries, public, private, senatori-
al, executive and diplomatic, was held
by its occupant with marked tenacity.
Condon globe. (Condon, Gilliam Co., Or.) 189?-1919, 1906-04-20

Washington, April 9.--McLaurin and
Morgan addressed the senate today on
the railroad rate question, the former
advocating the legislation and the lat
ter opposing. The. Mississippi senator
announced his intention TO support an
amendment providing for q court re-
view Of the decisions Of the Interstate
Commerce commission and also stated
his adherence to the Bailey amend.
ment, prohibiting the temporary sus-
pension OF the commissions orders by
the inferior courts. He criticized what
be characterized as an effort to inject
politics into the consideration Of the
bill. Morgan took the position that
the proposed legislation was an inter.
terence with the rights of the states to
control the corporations created by
themselves, and said that the best way
to check exorbitant railroad rates was
to keep the waterways in such condi-
tion as to insure competition.

FRIDAY, April 10.

Washington, April Is. - Owing 10
the fact that none Of its members we're
prepared 70 speak on the railroad rate
bill, that measure was temporarily laid
aside today In the senate, permitting
the devotion Of the entire time TO the
confederation OF other bills on the cal.
endar. OF these more than 800 were
passed, most Of them being private pen.
sion bills.
Among the general bills passed was
one increasing the pensions oi ex.
soldiers who lost limbs In the service;
another retiring and pensioning petty
officers and men Of the army, navy and
marine corps after 80 years OF service
at thFee-iourths their regular pay; and
q third bill increasing the pensions Of
OK. Mexican war soldiers TO $50 per
month and making the attainment Of
rs years OF age evidence OF disability.
Washington, April 1s.-After spend.
ing much time in useless debate and
wrangling, the house took up the post
Office appropriation bill.
The bill was finally perfected at AS
o'clock, when Moon, oil Tennessee, en-.
tered motion 70 recommit to the post
Office committee with instructions TO
report the bill 10 the house immedi-
ately with the Southern railway mail
subsidy stricken out. On this motion
Crmpacker, Of Indiana, demanded a
rollcall, which was ordered. Moons
motion was lost, 90 10 80. This re-
tanned the subsidy in the bill, and
without further objection the bill was
passed.
Condon globe. (Condon, Gilliam Co., Or.) 189?-1919, 1906-04-20

Washington, April 10. - For seven
hours today the house had under con-
sideration the postofice appropriation
bill, but In only lew instances were
the provisions considered. During the
debate on the special appropriation Tor
railway mail pay, bitter words were
exchanged between representatives
from North Carolina, Arkansas and
Kentucky, but all we're within the
rules OF the house. A numerous
speech was made by ]. Adam Bede,
Mimi, and Charles A. Towne, New
York, spoke In behalf Of the jamestown
exposition. Both Bede and Towne rep.
resented the Duluth district in Mime
sofa in other congresses. They were
warmly congratulated on their speeches.

Washington, April 0. - Notwith.
standing that this was District day in
the house and that body resolved itself
into common council for the purpose
Of making laws for the District of Co.
lumbia, general interest was shown in
the bills requiring nonresident pupils
to pay tuition and regulating the en-
ployment OF child labor. Hepburn, OF
Iowa, replying to long speech Of Sims,
OF Tennessee, in which he contended
for self government for the people of
the District OF Columbia, made de-
iense of the form of government, but
criticized its administration. He did
not think two newspaper men and one
army officer, who constitute the board
of commissioners, the proper personnel
for such a government.

Washington, April a. The feature
Of today's proceedings in the house Of
representatives was the speech made by
Cochran, Of New York, who, under an
agreement made on q previous day, was
given an hour TO elueidate the subject

bills. In view OF the announcement
that Cochran would speak, the galleries

Cochran, after short discussion Of
the fiction OF general debate and the
failure OF members TO attend the sit.
tlngs Of the house while subjects cover

being illuminated, launched into q de.
Tense OF the Hepburn rate bill and the
high position taken by the house, not
only in the exceptional character Of the
legislation, but in the dignitied way in
which the billl passed the lower branch
OF congress. In this connection he
ridiculed the constitutional debateIs in
the senate.
Condon globe. (Condon, Gilliam Co., Or.) 189?-1919, 1906-04-20

Washington, April 12.-After a briet
speech by Lattimer ON in support Of
the house railroad rate bill, Foraker
today took the floor on that measure
and consumed practically all of the re-
mainder Of the days session OF the SEN
ate. He spent some time in the discus.
sion OF some of the amendments he has
suggested, and then entered upon the
consideration OF the entire question Of
railroad rate regulation, arguing
against the constitutionality of the
pending bill from various points of
view. He was frequently interrupted
by other senators. Lodge spoke briefly
in support OF the practice Of granting
lower rates on goods intended for export
than on those used in domestic con-
sumption.

OF diving apparatus in the taking Of
sponges; authorizing the state Of Mon
tana to select lieu lands; prohibiting

that before the end Of the week the
speeches would be so far disposed OF as
enable the senate to ioresee the end
of general discussion.
Washington, April IL. - When
Speaker Cannon called the house to
order today, a senate bill ratiiying an
agreement with the Lower Brule band
of the Sioux tribe OF Indians, in South

The military record OF General Jacob
H. Smith was the subject of a speech
