ANTI-PAss AMENDMENT.
Modified Form Prepared By The Hous
 COnfsrees.

Washington, June 12.-There has been prepared by the House conferees on the railroad rate bill modihed form of the anti-pass amendment which will be presented at the next meeting of the joint conference committee for consid- eration. The modification is in the way of specifying an excepted class who may receive free transportation from the railroads lawfully. The first exception is that of railroad employees and their families. Another Is that of empioyes of the postoffice department who hold commissions from the post master general and are required to travel.
 The agitation over the completely prohibited pass provision embodied in the first conference has developed de- cided sentiment amongst legislators that the anti-pass legislation perhaps not to be made a part of the railroad rate bill. and the possibility Is that both Senate and House may agree to leave the matter under the present law.
 There is a further prediction regard ing the result of the second conference on the bill that Pullman cars will be included in the regulation of the inter- state commerce commission just as are other facilities of interstate commerce
 Speaker Cannon has expressed him self emphatically in favor of the pro- hibition of passes to railroad employees.

FORM A MlERG

Minneapolis, MINI, Jan. 23.The
first convention Of the Northern Pine
Manufacturing association opened here
today. The new organization, which
has not yet been permanently organized.
is the result Of merger of the Mis-
sissippi Valley Luinbernlen's associa-
tion and the Wisconsin, State Lumber
mems association. The two associa-
tions have always been closely connect
ed in the past and during the past
few years there had been a growing
sentiment in favor of consolidating the
two associations, whose interests were
SO closely allied The matter was dis
cussed in both organizations and COM
mittees were appointed to bring about
the merger The latter was effected at
a meeting in Milwaukee in the early
part Of December and the present con-
vention is the first joint convention Of
the consolidated associations. The new
association will permanently organize
ami elect its officers for the ensuing
year Tt is probable that the head
quarters OF the new organization will
BE established in this city. The new
organization includes nearly all the
prominent white and Norway pine lunl-
ber1neIi and manufacturers Of Mime
sofa, Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa.

SUICIDES DUE TO THE
THEORY OF DIR. OSi .ER

Chicago, Jan. 23 That the exploita-
fioH Of Df, William Oslers chloroforin
theories IS a contributory cause Of the
startling increase in the number of
suicides in Chicago Of men over 90
year old during the last year, is the
deduction reached in the coronerss Office
from d review of the records and a
scbmparison with those of 1908 and
1904
An increase of 258 per cent over the
figures Of 1904 for the suicides Of men
between 90 and 70 years was found.
Between the ages of 20 and 30 there
was an increase Of 33,s per cent
The conclusion is that Osler,s advo-
cacy of the chloroforming of men who
have passed the age of their useful
ness Was strengthened BY the fact that
eighty y-three Of the suicides were found
TO have been in Occupations where they
likely would be readers of newspapers.

TERRIBLE SLAUGHTER.

y Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 23.-Statistics
for the year 1905 just given out by the
authorities of Allegheny county indi-
cate that during the past year more
than 1900 persons were killed and
injured in this county, while at their
daily work, Of this number the blast
furnaces and iron and steel mills are
responsible for 5000. The other fac
tories and shops have 1000 to their
credit and the victims of the railroads
numbered 1000, while those of the
mines numbered 400. Besides this there
were several thousand injured whose
cases were not reported, as the injured
persons were taken straight home and
not to any Of the hospitals or morgues.
Several of the mills have furnished such
large number of death and injury
cases, that the insurance companies re-
fuse to insure men working there.

BARRY VIEW
IS GLOOMY
AMERICAN TALKS ON Il.
RUSSIAN SITUATION
Russian People Are Not Ready for the
Constitution and the Recent Agita-
tion Has Had Bad Effect on the
Masses. I s$s,

Moscow, Jan. 23.- Alexander Barry,
a naturalized American, who is among
the most prominent manufacturers OF
Moscow, takes an exceedingly gloomy
view of the situation industrially and
politically. Barry employs from 400
to 5000 men and unquestionably has
more knowledge of the Russian con-
ditions than any American and is cap
able of giving a close diagnosis of the
situation. He is convinced that the
Russian people are not ripe for a full
constitutional regime. The opening OF
the flood gates of agitation by the
publication of imperial reform mani
festo only served to demoralize a por-
tion of the masses which had already
been disturbed by the agitatorS.
Continuing, Mr.. Barry said:
S'Fhe ignorant masses really have
none Of the political aspirations attrib-
uted to them by the agitators but ow-
ing to their poverty they are easy prey
TO the appeals for liberty. which for
them, means license
: That they neither understand nor
care for true political rights is proved
BY the fact that in Moscow less than
10 per cent and il, the provinces not
over e per cent of the voters will reg
ister, consequently it can be taken for
granted. that the national assembly will
be Overwhelmingly conservative and
Will become an institution to register
the DEGREES of the government.
I Up to the present time it has been
a mistake to imagine that the revoIuL
tionary ideas had taken deep root eth
er in the people or in the army.
The agitation has been cleverly
manipulated to- give it that appearance.
Like benzine rubbed on the surface
it is very inf1ammable but it soon eva
porates if not set on fire. All condi-
tions will make for desperation and an
archy, in which a revival of the rev.
olutionary agitation will find the best
opportunity. 81 .., a. ~.
' The people are incapable, in their
present state Of culture, of "a gradual
evolution to stable popular regime.
1t is impossible to lead them to that
end. -s H..

excesses Of power or liberty. There is
no middle way. ss.a~ y A..
