HAziNG LAW TOO SEVERE.
President Urges That 1t Shall Be
Modified.

Washington.-Th President mas
made public letter urging upon Con-
gress modification OF the law against
hazing at the naval academy
Unless Congress shall promptly
amend the existing law against hazing
which makes mandatory the dismissal
of any midshipman found guilty of any
form of hazing, the secretary of 'he
navy may be forced to dismiss thirty
three midshipmen from the naval acad-
emy within the next month, in addition
to the eight who have already suffered
this penalty affd the three whose cases
are awaiting the action of the depart
ment
In his letter the President says:
Il have directed that pardon he is
sued to John Paul Miller. midship-
man at the United States Naval Acad-
emy recently convicted of 'haZing' and
sentenced to dismissal from the acad-
emy. In the discussion of this case
my attention has been called forcibly
to the unsatisfactory condition of the
law on this subject. A midshipman ac-
cused of hazing. whether the extent of
his offense be great or small. must lie
tried by court-martiGl. The findings of
such court, if approved by the superin-
tendent of the academy. are declared
final and can not be revised by the
secretary of the navy or even by me,
and neither the court itself nor the SUI
perintendent nor the secretary of the
navy has any discretion as to the pun
ishment to be imposed
Il heartily dsapprove of the prac-
tice of hazing, and, in common with all
those Interested in the welfare of the
academy. wish to see this practice
thoroughly eradicated there. But the
punishment of dismissal is altogether
| disproportionate to the culpability in
| YOlNed in some forms of hazing'

DANGEROUS FOOD.
Millions Die by Soothing Syrups and
Impure Milk.

Washington.-That more than l,000,-
900 infants have been sacrificed to the
various concoctions known as 'sooth-
ing syrups' and pain killers" and
over twice that number killed by i'm
pure milk, is the declaration made by
Professor H. w. Wiley. chief of the
chemistry bureau OF the Department
of Agriculture.
I'VE do not know anything about
the milk we have left at our homes, Or
the condition under which it is pro.
duced," he added. '"There are a thou
sand and one possibilities which might
have combined to make what nature
intended for food the most virile poi
son that chemistry can produce.
81 have found that the foods we
daily consume are so fraught with
germ life of a harmful nature that
am almost afraid to go to the table.
The butter is painted-there is little
other to be found anywhere. Canned
goods are kept years and sold for the
genuine article. | speak particularly
of condensed milk.
III we know nothing of the fresh
milk we get, surely our knowledge is
more limited to the product that is put
in cans The Lord intended us to re
sort TO cans only to TIDE us over one
season, until green fruits could be had
again, but the canneries don't know
this. There is no law requiring them
to stamp the date upon their goods.
II there were, it would kill the sale"
1t was the irony of fate that the
Washington butcher who foisted a
fake lamb chop on the market should
send an order of this delectable food
to the home of DR.. Wiley, head of the
chemical bureau of the Agricultural
Department, whose business it is to
investigate foods and see that they are
pure and are all that they are repre-
sented to be.
This extraordinary imitation was
made up of piece of comparatively
unstable meat, probably taken from
somewhere about the neck A bone
which previously had been in use, be-
cause it showed signs of having been
broilcd, or boiled, at some stage, was
carefully inserted in little Sits in the
piece of neck and fastened over with
something resembling cartilages, so
that the effect at first glance was that
of an ordinary lamb chop.

LATE ADVICES ALARMING
Boycott Against Americans Intensified
Naval Demonstration by the
United States Considered Possible.

WaShington.-There are several evil
dences that the administration is pre-
pared to apply the big stick policy
to China if the latter shows evidences
of defiance
Several weeks ago it was reluctantly
admitted at the War Department that
i the troops in the Philippines were be
ing materially increased. in the face of
Secretary Taft's declaration that no
more than 10000 men were required to
keep order, because the administration
feared that there was going to be trou-
Bile for the United States in China.
Prior to this the statement had been
made upon the same authority that ad-
ditional troops were to be sent there.
that by that time brigade drills might
be made possible
Advices from China received here
and at London are admittedly of most
alarming character.
To-day it was said at the Navy De
partment that following the compile
tion of Rear Admiral Sigsbee's cruise
the Galveston and the Chattanooga
would be sent East through the SueZ
canal to Chinese waters.
Almost at the same moment il was
declared in the State Department upon
authority that every report from an
American consul general in China was
to the effect that the boycott and the
feeling against America now flourished
as never before and the reports
mounted a foot high.
Continuously cropping up were pla-
cards denouncing Americans and cry
ing that if the boycott and demonstra-
tion were only kept up. America would
let down the bars to Chinese immi-
grafton.
Again and again, it was said. the
American minister. MIR. Rockhill. and
his assistants have protested to the au-

WINS
HEPBURN RATE BILL PASSED BY
THE HOUSE.
BUT FEW OPPOSING VOTES
smbodies Railroad Regulations Rec
commended by the President =
Gives Commission Power to Fix
Reasonable Rate.

Reasonable Rate.
Washington.-Th House Thursday
passed the Hepburn railroad rate bill
by vote of BAG to Z. Those voting
against the bill were: Littlefield, Nc
Call, Perkins, Sibley, Southwick. Vree-
land and Weeks.
The bill, according to Mr.. Hepburn's
statement in closing the debate on the
measure, was intended-and did. so far
as 1t could be made, be said-to COM
ply specifically with the recommends
lions OF President Roosevelt on the
rate question.
1t gives the Interstate Commerce
Commission authority when a rate has
been complained of as unreasonable"
by shipper to investigate that rate,
state whether or not it is unreasonable
and, If found to be unreasonable, to
name rate that it is to be Just and
reasonable and fairly remunerative.
which is to be the maximum rate to be
charged.
The rate so fixed is to go into effect
thirty days after it is announced by
the commission, subject during that
time to be set aside or suspended by
the commission or by the courts. AT
ter it has gone into effect it is to re
main the rate for three years. During
that time the opinion has been ex-
pressed by those who have partici-
pated in the debate. the rate may be
reviewed by the courts and If found to
be in conflict either with the terms of
the act or with the constitution by be-
ing confiscatory, can be set aside by
the courts.
Another important feature is the
definition of the word railroad and
transportation" in a manner to iR-
clude all auxiliary instrumentalities
to the common carrier and to bring
them within the power and control of
the commission. This power to name
reasonable rate and the inclusion OF
the auXiliaries within the jurisdiction
of the commission are said 10 be the
new features.
All other provisions are modifica-
tions of existing laws. They include
publicity of railroad methods, which is
to be aided by prescribing system
of bookkeeping and enlarging the com
mission to seven members and increas-
ing salaries of members to $4,000 a
year.
