WE'D ONLY FOR LOVE
Washington Scientists Advise Struggling
Students.

That a man who can marry a woman
with money is man to be envied. is the
! general expression of Washington scien-
lists, but that he should make a bust
ness of wedding his fortune is one upon
which they do not agree, notwithstanding
/ the statement OF Prof. Edward Everett
/ Hale, jr, Of Union College, in which he
advised scientists 20 marry money and be
unhampered in their battles for scientific
supremacy.
/ Prof. Hale's argument that young
| scientists could do better work if not
worried by the sordId necessity Of earn
/ ing a living is part Of his utterance
with which ali the Washington men
agree. but that the elimination Of the
sordid things can be accomplished only
by wedding wealth is met with the an
swer that there is no royal road to sue
| cess any more than TO knowledge"
Six men OF scientific prominence in
Washington have contributed their views
many ideas.
Prof. Paul n Peck, assistant professor
Of mathematics in George Washington
University, thinks man should attain his
fortune or competence first. and then wed
to suit his heart. not his bank book.
Prof. Peck's Views.
1T seems to ne" said Prof. Peck that
married man cannot reach the position
with the aid OF a woman's money that
he can by his own endeayors A man
should first win success. then marry when
he can afford to do so. He should succeed
unaided in his profession. Wealth would
undoubtedly be a great help to him. but
unless he can combine ii with love, he
should remain single. To any young man
about to start out in life / should say;
DO rot make the wealth of any woman
| a stepping stone to your success.

" Do not marry money, but go where
money is is the way Tennyson put IT,"
said 0. T. Mason. head curator at the
National Museum
THAT is my idea. exactly" continued

"A scientist should not make himself
a fortune-hunter, but q marriage between

would have its advantages. These would
be two-fOld; first, the wealth of the wom-
an would enable the man 10 continue his
studies in a manner which, without
wealth. would be impossible. and in the
second place. his position as a scientist
would give the woman a social prestige
she would otherwise have to foregO.

. EMARKABLE results in producing a heavy
N yielding species Of corn have been attained
- By Prof. r. A. Moore, agrononlist of the

Wisconsin University's College of Agriculture
Through a process Of selection he has secured a
crop yielding $50 ear bushels, or seventy-fve
shelled bushels. to the acre If this process were
applied to the entire crop OF the country an enor-
nous increase in the corn production of the United
States would be Witnessed.
Value of the experimental work done by Prof
Moore along this line during recent years-he has
been at it four years at least-s shown by the fact
that grain from which such results have come is
now being grown generally throughout Wisconsin
This year about 600 members of the Experiment
Association have grown the corn in fifty different
counties. Yields equal to and even greater than
that at the college have been reported.

To Find FISHING Bait.

The boy wanted some worms for
bait. He had selected promising
spot, a shady and low lying dell, but,
though he had been digging now for
fifteen minutes, not single worm had
his spade turned up.
Here. sonny" said an old angler,
take this chunk Of soap and make me
a quart or two of soap suds.'"
The boy brought the suds, the old
man sprinkled them over the ground,
and then he, in his turn, began to dig.
It was amazing. Here, where the boy
before had not found single worm,
the old man now discovered them in
dozens.
"You can find worms most any
where, sonny" said the old man, If
you wet the ground with soapsuds
first. The soapsuds draw them, the
same as molasses draws flies. A weak
mixture of blue vitriol and water will
do the same thing also.'

FIGHT COURT BILL
STRENUOUS OPPOSITION TO UNDER
 WOOD MEASURE.
Attorney GeneraI Has Not Yet Indica- ted What Report He Will Make To The President-The Pure
 Food BilI.
By Alfred J. Stofer.

Washington. April 11.-tSpecial)-The Attorney General admits that he is re- cefving numerous protests from Ala bama against the Underwood court bill, but he is not yet prepared to say what action he will advise the President to take.
 It is understooet that several oppon- urging a veto. maintain that the bill. if the President and Mir. Moody will examine it closely, is not only very unfair to Judge Jones. but they even claim that 1t is vicious in its provis- ions.
 The President has vetoed one court bill this session. The friends of MT. Underwood's bill have not been able to find out definitely what MT. Roosevelt will do in this case. They have faith in its being approved because 1t had unanimous report from both the Sen ate and House judiciary committees.
 The pure food bill as amended by the House is meeting with savage op- position on the part of the members in whose districts are located canning es- establishments. The bill as 1t now cerns to stamp the actual weight on each can,. glass jar or package. Much of the opposition comes from Southern States in which oysters, fruits and vegetables are canned. The bill will be called up In a few days.
 Referee Charles H. Scott has re- turned from New York where he has been for some time. He says there's nothing going on here in the office line for Alabama He will leave for home tomorrow.

LOSS OF s2O,00O,0OO.
Estimate of Destruction of Property by
 Volcano.


 Volcano.
 Naples, April 11.-Reports of the de- struction of two towns. Sarno and San Genarro, the former having a popula- tion of more than 5000, have proved to be without foundation. At Sarno, 5000 persons from nearby villages and farms have found refuge. Ottajano, where many lives were lost on Monday, is now practically buried.
 There Is great difficulty in ascertain ing the actual condition of affairs in that part of the stricken district near est the volcano. The tram and railway tracks are deep under sand and ashes, the roads are obliterated and even the fishermen who ply their calling on the Bay of Naples are afraid to venture out in water anywhere in the vicinity of Vesuvius. All these conditions made 1t difficult to give an intelligent estimate of the loss of property.
 One estimate Is that $20,000,000 dam age has been done and that 50,000 per sons have been rendered homeless. Ev- anywhere in Naples and Castlemare and in the lesser towns nearby out of the danger zone are beggared refugees who only a few days ago were prosperous and happy, though living almost under meath the shadow of perpetual menace. For these people whose homes and crops have been destroyed there is little consolation in the statement of scient- ists that ultimately the valleys and hill sides will become as fertile as ever they were.
 Until communication can be restored and search made of the houses in the afflicted district it will be impossible to determine how many people have perished.

FIXED THE TARIFFS
.sTRAFFIC ASSOCIATIONS" A RAIL-
 ROAD COMBINATION.
searIs Admits that the Rates are Agreed Upon and . Per Cent of Tonnage Allotted to Each
 Carrier.

Philadelphia, April 1i.--That rates are fixed by the "trafic association" composed of various coal-carrying roads. was the admission drawn today from railroad officials at the final hear ing of the Interstate Commerce Com mission into the alleged abuses or the coal trade.
 Through J. G. Searles, coal traffic manager of the Pennsylvania Railroad, who is also chairman of the All-rail Traffic Association, it was learned that this organization not only fixes the percentage of tonnage allotted to each railroad. but also establishes the rates.
 Counsel for the Commission produced the minutes of meeting of the Tide water Bituminous Steam Coal Traffic Association. held Sept 19, 1900. The records showed that a resolution of fered by tho Norfolk and Western Com pany permitting that company and the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad to carry Tidewater coal at the rate of $l26 a ton. was voted down and that the rate was fixed at $1.40 ton on MT. Searless resolution.
 Mir Searles admitted that there had been an agreement as to the tonnage to he allowed each road .and that If one road shipped more and another less. a settlement was made. He said that there had been no settlements since 1896.
 In explaining the establishment of rates, MT. Searles stated that each company fixed It's price. which was later agreed to by the members of the association. If any company should reduce the rate. he said. 1t would de- moralize the general situation.
 Mir. Searles denied that there was an understanding to maintain rates be- tween all-rail and all-water associa- tions for the purpose of preventing competition. It was shown by the rec ords of the traffic association" that in 1889 the rate on soft coal to New York and New England points was $1,55 eX- cept to the Boston and Maine connec- ton which had a $1.45 rate. In 1900 these rates were raised to Sl.55 and $t.75 respectively. Since then there has been no change. MT. Searlcs de- nied also that the purpose of these rates was to stop competition.
 w w. Ttterbury. general manager of the Pennsylvania Railroad, was re- called today and produced documents relating to cars and tonnage which the commission asked for yesterday

MARCH A RECORD BREAKER.
Extraordinary Production of Pig Iron
 For the Month,

New York, April 1.-The Iron Age will say tomorrow:
 The monthly pig iron statistics show that March has been record breaker. The production, exclusive of charcoal iron, amounted to 2,l65,232 tons as com pared with the best previous month D. 0sS, ,S93 tons in January. Estimating the charcoal iron product the total was close to 2.200.000 tons. The steel com panies in March made 1.400.3 1905 tons and the merchant furnaces 765,237 tons. That this enormous amount of metal has gone into consumption IS shown by the fact that the stock of the steel cor poration is down to the lowest figure in It's history. 10000 tons and that some of the other steel companies have recently bought outside metal. or are In the market now, Active furnace ca pacity increased from 47s.733 tons per week on March 1. to 4S4.24o tons on April 1. There was considerable heavy buying during the past week, the ma jority of the large transactions, how ever, having been made at concessions
 The cast Iron pipe interests, which had the best month In their history during March. have been large pur- chasers They have taken from e0.00o tons to 75,000 tons of pig iron. the greater part in the South. although the furnaces in the East and in the Cen tral West have come in for share.
 The Lake Superior corporation has secured the second 30.000 tons of stecl rails for the Grand Trunk Pacific. the American mills having been unable to touch the business. In structural ma terlal. among the contracts placed. were orders for $500 tons for St. Louis. 4.- 800 tons for Los Angeles, $500 tons for Chicago, 2,400 tons for New Orleans. and 5000 tons for the Lehigh Valley. and 5.500 tons for the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pacific. The Man haitian Bridge, for which bids are to go in. calls for 42.ooo net tons of ma terial
 Good orders have been placed for merchants pipe, among them one for 23a miles of oil line for new Kansas enterprise. On account of the phenom- inal rise In the price of tin. the makers of tin plates have advanced their prices from the $3.5o basis. Pittsburg. to $3.60.
 March was a record breaking month in shipments by the United States Steel Corporation to customers, the to- tai value being 99s.00o tons.

WITH A FIRM HAND
ANARCHISM WILL BE DEALT WITH
 IN AMERICA.
Washington officials Have Been In- formed of the Arrival in BaItf- more and San FranciscO of
 Dangerous Italians.

Washington, April 11.-Anarchism in the United States will be put down with a firm hand The information which has reached the government of ficials here that large numbers of Ital- ian anarchists have arrived at San Francisco and Baltimore has resulted in the adoption of extreme measures to apprehend these men.
 While many have arrived in Balti- more and are making that city their headquarters, a number have gone to other places. and the police bRve been notified to be on the look out for them.
 It was said at the department of commerce and labor that the Italian government through it's consul at Bal timore had furnished the name of one man who is regarded as particularly dangerous and the officials of immigra- tion are bending every effort to cap ture him. It is believed here he is the ringleader of the band that has come to this country through the port of Baltimore and his apprehension is regarded as of especial importance
 Some idea of the character of the men with whom tho department is dealing with may be gathered from a recen. case arising at San Francisco. Within the past month an Italian was released from prison in that city and upon being questioned by tho immigra- lion authorities. openly declared that if he was allowed to pursue his course he would kill the President of the Uni ted States The man was taken in charge. conveyed across the country to New York and deported to Italy He would not disclose, however, that he was member of the organizat tion whose leader has become known, al though he made a bold threat as to what he would do to the executive of the United States
 Immigration and police officials have boen notified to be on the outlook for anarchists and the deputies here antici nate before long they wfll have in GUS todv those known to be enemies of all organized government.

Chicago, April 11.--At the conclusion of a day of conferences between the opposing interests of the Christian Catholic Church the statement was made al midnight tonight that the whole controversy would probably be settled by conciliation. Both sides to the dispute, according to Attorney Emil C. Wetten. John Alexander Dowie's legal representative. are anxious for an amicable adjustment of the whole dispute.
 This announcement was made by MT.

 Earlier in the evening a statement had been given out from Dowie's apart ments that the whole matter would be thrown into the courts tomorrow for d settlement, but after he con sulation with Attorney Wetten on his reurn from Zion there seemed to be a sudden change in the warlike st- titude which has all along been as- sumed by Dowie and his advisors.

CAMPAIGN FOR SANITATION,
Genuine and Radical Reforms In Cuban
 Republic.

Havana, April 11.--Genuine and rad ical sanitary reforms are now in pro- gress throughout Cuba. The ordi- nances recently signed by President Palma giving the health department full control of the conditions in the interior as well as in the coast cities and towns are being vigorously used to compel changes from filth to clean Illness.
 In many. Instances tenants have been compelled to vacate premises needing radical cleaning. Besides the disin- lection and mosquito extermination brigades at Havana there are now four special sanitary brigades of thirty men each working at Santiago and other towns. Marked progress Is also being made in exterminating mosquitoes. It is expected that the new congress will appropriate an additional s200,o0o for sanitation.
