The Republicans claim to have
done great things during the ses-
sion of Congress just closed. In all
reason they had majority enough in
both houses to accomplish wonders,
yet they were so divided among
themselves that scarcely any legis-
lation worthy of note was enacted
without the help of the Democrats.
In the next house the Democrats
will do the legislating without con
sulting the Republicans to amy
great extent.

John Mulyany, an artist of note, who
painted among other pictures, that of

precarious life in Greenpoint up to
about three weeks ago. From a man of
fine physique, handsome features and a
kindly countenance he had sunk to a
ragged dereiict, uncertain Of nights

Mulvany's friends went to him and told

BUREAU OF INFORMATION.
Senate Discusses Amendment to the
Immigration Bill.

When the Senate today resumed consid-
Grafton of the immigration bill the COM
mittee amendment authorizing the crea-
ton OF bureau Of information for the
benefit Of immigrants was taken UP, SEN
ators Spooner. Lodge Gallinger and Others
criticised the provision in that amendment
providing for the collectic- and distribu-
tion and data concerning the resources Of
the various states and territories.
Mr.. Gallinger moved to strike out all of
the amendment except that portion permit
ting the various states to be represented
by the agents at the Immigrant stations
and Senator McCreary opposed the mo-
ton He said that especial effort should
be made to secure better distribution
or Immigrants than is obtaInable under the
present system. Now. he said most of the
newcomers locate in the eastern states and
large cities, where they are not needed
whereas the south, where immigration is
desired. is almost entirely overlooked In
support OF his contention he said that 2S5
900 aliens located in New York last wear
and only GOO sought homes In Kentucky
He also called attention to the fact that
the south is not represented in the immi-
grafton service and criticised the arrange
Inent as sectional.

WESTERN TURF PEACE
NOTABLE COMPACT SIGNED. END
ING LONG DISPUTE.

CINCINNATI, May 23.-Peace has been
practically restored on the western turf,
according to story published here today.
Congressman Joseph L. Rhinock, repre-
sent1ng the American Turf Association
and Louis Celia. the main supporter of
the Western Jockey Club, signed a COM
pact which ends the fight which has lasted
more than sixteen months. Negotiations
have been under way for a week or more
and peace was not agreed upon until last
Saturday.
Mr.. Rhinock and Mr.. Celia had discussed
terms of settlement on several occasions,
and last Saturday, with c. A Titles, Harvey
Myers and Judge Bond of st. Louis as wit
nesses, Rhinock and Celia signed the peace
compact 1t calls for no clash of interests
wherever they are concerned This means
that there will be no clash between Louis
Vile and Douglass Park and between City
Park and the Crescent City Jockey Club in
New Orleans next winter.
The dates will be so arranged that both
tracks will race alternately. The Douglass
Park meeting will probably follow that of
Latonia. The two turf bodies will go ahead
with their business as heretofore, save that
there will be no clash of race meetings
The outlaw rule Is also wiped out, and
horsemen can race at either track The
meeting at Latonia viii be run independ
entity OF the American and Western jockey
clubs. No one will be barred, save those
who have been suspended or ruled off by
either organization for fraud. 1t will not
be long before a new organization will be
formed to control the sport in the west.
The American Turf Association came into
existence through the refusal of the West
ern Jockey Club to grant City Park, In
New Orleans, racing dates. Mr.. Corrigan
and Representative Rhinock were behind
City Park, and the A. 7. A. was organized
to fight the Western Jockey Club. 1t has
been long and bitter fight, and in conse-
uuence racing in Illinois and Missouri has
been discontinued. Laws were also passed
forbidding racing in Tennessee. and similar
measures We're contemplated in other
states. Racing in Tennessee was restored
last winter, and it is believed that the end
of the turf war will result in no adverse
legislation in other states.

Mr Patton said he was born in western
Pennsylvania and had been a lifelong friend

a good ways. These stocks were not given
me for any favors I might be able to do
the companies. Some years ago the Penn

No Crime Once to Own Stock.
Then 1t was not considered a crime. as 1t
appears to be now. for a railroad man to
hold stock In coal company. I have never
attempted to conceal my ownership of coal
company stock.

you owned this Stock asked Mr.. Glasgow.

Commissioners Clements asked the witness
IL he did not think there was danger of dis
elimination when railroad officials held coal
company stock.
Admitted Element Of Danger.
He admitted that there might be an ele-
ment of danger. He said the railroad COM
pany did not in the early days discourage
the system of railroad officials joining and
organizing mining companies.
Are they discouraging the system now?"
I can't say, but judge So"
How Is 1t manifestedT

In answer to a question by Chairman
Knapp. Mr.. Patton said 1t had been the
general custom in the soft coal region to
organize companies by distributing the
stock and paying for it out of the profits
A. W. Gibbs. general superintendent Of
motive power at Altoona, followed Mr. Pat
