Senator Tillman, in commenting
on the attack Of the Chicago Tri.
bune correspondent on Senator
Bailey, said he counted eight dis
tinct falsehoods in the article, but
he desired TO address himself first
TO a denial that he had ever been
suspicious of Senator Bailey. He
declared his great esteem and
admiration for the Texas senator,
and that cordial rotations had al
ways existed. Articles of this
character were being sent broad
cast over the country, said Mr.. Till
man, at the instance Of the repub-
lican machine to "befuddlen the
situation. As TO the statement by
Attorney General Moody that he
could see no hope for an agreement
on any amendment unless il was
drawn by the senators themselves,
Senator Tillman said that il was
an adroit effort to give color TO the
presidents retreat behind the AL
lison amendment. Referring to
the incident the Galveston News
says: "In Texas, where Senator
Bailey is best known, it needs no
statement frem him nor testimony
from others TO refute the insinua-
ton that he had in fact entered
into a trade with Senator Aldrich
or other arch enemies of the rate
legislation, or that be contemplat-
ed doing 30. The newspaper sto-
ries, bearing the White House ear
marks, which seek 10 explain the
presidents remarkable surrender
on the ground OF Senator BaiIey's
alleged detection would, even ia
the absence Of any direct proof to
the contrary, be discredited by !
those who know Senator Bailey
and are acquainted with his open
and direct way Of dealing with
matters"

BOUNTY ON eauss IN FRANCE.
How Some Communities Encourage
determination Of Pest.

It is rather remarkable that any
people should offer a bounty Tor
the collection of white grubs, but
this is what some communities In
France have done for years past
A bounty of from 10 to 20 confines
per kilogram of white grubs was
the reward for gathering that kind
of a pest. The statistics show that
in six years the collections amount
ed to 462,911 Kilograms. Ths
number of white grubs required to
equal kilogram is about 1900. This
means that about five hundred mil
lions of the white grubs were thus
collected. 1t has been discovered,
however. says Farmers Review. that
the large quantities of money re'
quired make it quite impossible to
carry on the work in this manner.
Furthermore 1t requires a great deal
of devotion on the part OF the col
lectors to be thorough in the work.

does not pay to hunt them. and most
