THE RATE ! !, ! I BILL BIZ / :,

j. The railroad rate bill passed
the senate last Friday with only
three dissenting votes-Foraker
of Ohio and Morgan and Pettus
of Alabama. The first mentioned
voted against it because he was
opposed to the principle of the
bill; the Alabama senators voted
against it because they thought
it was an infringement on the
rights of the states. The bill as
passed is a mere shadow of the.
original Hepburn bill. AS all
but one of the railroad senator's
voted for it it is easy to figure
out that the bill does not carry
any provision that the roads are
very much alarmed about. The
senate added an amendment pro-
viding for a court review Of the
rulings of the interstate commits
sion. This, however, was not of
vital Importance as the advocates
of the bill argued all the time
that the courts would have the
right of review without a special
provision for it. But the senate
struck out the words 'taccording
to their best Judgment" from the
provision giving the commission
the power to fix a reasonable
rate. This makes it necessary
for the commission to fix rate
that the supreme court shall
think reasonable. When they
have fixed rate the court can
decide that it is not reasonable,
without prescribing what would
be reasonable. Then the COM
mission would have to guess
again, and keep on guessing till
a reasonable rate had been dis
covered or the party seeking
relief would be tired out and
drop the matter. 20; nj
Had Roosevelt cared more for
getting an efficient measure
passed than he did for party
solidarity it is very likely that by
the union of the democrats and
the anti-railroad re p u blican s
such a bill could have been
passed. AS it is the republican
party was kept united and the
efficiency of the bill was sacri-
feed. The bill will n ow go back
to the house, and if that body re-
fuses to accept the radical
changes made it will go to con-
ference. 1t is not likely that the
house will put up much of fight.
An election is approaching and
the members are anxious to be
in position to tell their. >'consti-
tuents that the republicans have
regulated" the railroads. It
will be a ''good enough Morgan
till after election as the defects
of the measure will not be appar.
ent until after years of litigation.

about one o'clock, in the seventy
sixth year Of her age. She had
been afflicted with a cancer, and
though for several months her suf-
fering had been intense she bore it
patiently with that christian forti-
tude that had been her stay through
life, and looked forward with long
ing to the end. Funeral services
were held on Sunday afternoon in
the M. q. church, conducted by

fruition a life which dwelt in con-
) slant fellowship with the Master
and which reflected the glory of the
Infinite a life which leaves earth
the poorer for its loss, but which
makes heaven the richer for its
presence.

Last Friday a telegram was re-
ceived from Henry Youngman, who
accompanied Alexander Mckay to
Albuquerque, n. NJ, about three
weeks ago, stating that Mr.. Mckay
was dead. While it was known
that Mr.. Mckay was in an advanc-
ed stage Of consumption when he
left, the previous letters received
indicated that he was improving
slightly by tie change Of climate,
SO the news that he had passed
away so soon caused some sur
prise.
Alexander Mckay was born in
Bruce county, Ontario, Feb. II,
1870, being at the time of his death
thirty-six years. one month and
twenty days. When four years of
age he accompanied his parents to
Dakota, locating on q homestead
three miles east of Scoiland. Here
he resided with his parents contin-
uously until a few weeks ago, when

GENERAL FUNSTON HIS
OWN CHAMBERMAID
Army Servants Scarce I'm Maneuver
Camp at American Lake.

Tacoma, Aug. 7.-Trouble has de-
scended upon the headquarters camp
at American Lake. From General
Funston down to the newest second
lieutenant all are affected alike. This
morning there was seen at Camp Ia
coma sight that was probably never
before seen in the regular army since
the days of Washington and Valley
Forge. Shortly after reveille had
sounded there emerged from each tent
facing the flagpole atheadquarters one
or more officers each carrying a bun
die of bed Clothes which he carefully
spread over the limbs of trees and on
the grass to air.
Then, while all waited, General
Funston himself appeared, bedding in
one hand and wash basin in the other.
he, too, spread his bedding out to air
ana then disappeared with the wash
basln for parts secluded. When he re-
turned later the basin shone like bur-
nished silver, so well had it been mol
lshed. With a smile the general gath
cred up his bedding and retreated into
MS tent again, where glimpses were
obtained of him as he spread the COW
ers neatly over his cot Following the
example of their commander the other
otlcers did likewise. The trouble was
that help is a minus quantity at the
camp. The other organizations en-
camped gave up all hope of obtaining
stewards or Wallets long ago, but an
effort was made to provide a force of
strikers to do work at headouar-
ters AS soon as they were obtained.
however, the men faded away.

long accustomed to chopping wood.

BANKER FLED CHICAGO
WITH DIVORCED WOMAN

The Tribune today says: "A state
of affairs more startling and shocking
than had been hinted at previously in
connection with the collapse of the
Milwaukee Avenue State bank was re-
vealed tonight when it became plain
that through barefaced forgery Presl-
dent Paul o. Stensland had plunrered
his own bank Systematically through
period Of years. There has been
discovered in President Stensland's
own safety deposit box a series of
memoranda, detailing how the bank
was looted. The amount taken from
the savings of $4,000 persons, as set
down In Stenslahd's handwriting, Is
$1,003.000. The money went to the
support of Stenslands real estate
speculatlons and his fine household in
Irving park. According to the police
some of it also went latterly for lux
uries for a certain woman, or women
friends of Stensland. II was intimat-
ed that when the bank president fled
he was accompanied by a divorced
woman, who is still with him."
