Representative Stanley o I
Kentucky, gave demonstration
of the manufacture Of ~biended"
whisky in the House this week.
He took a quart of 100 proof
alcohol, and by adriotly adding
colorinc matter, bead oil and
essence of bourbon whisky he
turned out finished sample of
whisky that would kill at forty
rods. Mr.. Stanley held up the
bottle and declared that it was
so called offended" W h S ky,
which he proceeded to denounce
in no uncertain language.

For the third time the rate
bill has been sent back to con
ference, this time because of
the clause relating to the oil
pipe lines. 1t had been hoped
that this complicated and i'm
portant bit of legislation would
come out of the second confer
ence in such shape that both
the House and the Senate could
agree to it, and thus permit its
removal from the scene at a time
when every energy Is being
strained toward an early ad-
journment. The House accepted
the result Of the second confer
ence by an overwhelming vote,
all three of the House conferees
and Senators Cullom and Elkins
signing the report. Senator Till
man alone declined to acquiesce
in the conference decision, and
on the floor Of the Senate he de-
nounced the modified phraseology
of the clause affecting the pipe
lines. His statements were re-
futed by Senators Elkins and
Long, who insisted that the or
iginal Lodge amendment on this
subject would work greater
hard ship to the independent oil
producers than to the Standard
Oil Company, whose interests,
Senator Tillman openly declared,
were being protected As 4 re-

The National River and Har.
bors Congress has been quietly
engaged in taking a poll of the
national Congress with regard
to rivers and harbors improve
ment by the Federal govern
ment. The result Is surprising.
Practically every member of
both houses acknowledged his
interest in the work, and his be-
lief that more liberal appropri-
alton for the development of the
navigable waterways was neces
sary for an equalization OF freight
rates and for taking care Of the
growing internal commerce of
the country. The concensus of
opinion, it was found, is that a
greater general interest is all
that is needed to spur Congress
to action. When the people of

Edwin w. Sims, solicitor of
the Department of Commerce
and Labor, leaves Washington
this week to make a thorough
investigation of the killing of
seals on the Alaskan coast. Mr..
Sims will work directly under
the State Department, which is
desirious of putting an end by
treaty TO the indlscriminate
slaughter Of the fur bearing
animals. AS soon as his report
is in the hands of Secretary
Root, representations will be
made to Great Britain, Russia
and Japan asking for a congress
to consider the subject of pelagic
killing and bringing to the at

suit the Senate ordered back the
report, and b o t h branches
named the same conferees. SO
far as the great majority of the
American people is concerned,
however, the bill as it stands is
IA powerful piece of legislation
in Its regulation of railroad
transportation. 1t is so power
full, in fact-so much more
drastic than even President
Roosevelt advocated-that there
is growing question in official
circles whether Congress has not
overreached itself IN placing
such unparalleled control Of the
nations commerce in the keep
ing of a limited political board.
Members of the board of ord
nance and fertilization of the
War Department are highly
pleased over the successful tests
made with the new explosive,
dunnite. The tests were made
at the Sandy Hook proving
ground, and a torpedo charged
with $50 lbs. of the new de-
structive agent was launched
against a steel caisson weighing
105 tons and representing the
bottom of a powerful battleship.
When the torpedo struck there
was a hollow defamation, "A huge
column of water was thrown
high in the air and the big steel
tub crumpled like paper and
sank. Major Beverly w. Dunn,
the inventor of the new ex-
plosive, is being congratulated
by his friends. Two weeks ago
Naval Constructor Baxter pre-
dicted that if "dunnite" proved
itself TO be what its inventor
it would revolutionize
the construction of ships of war.

tleship of the future will have

stead of two.

why RUSSIA LOST.
General Kuropatkin Speaks Very Plainly
on the Subject.

st. Petersburg, March 21.--Ceneral
Kuropatkins, last order of the day To
the first Nanehurian army, printed in
the Russky Invalid (the military organ)
yesterday, Is q remarkable exposure Of
the causes Of the Russian defeats, show
ing that they were due to lack Of prepa-
ration and equipment, and to the fact
that there were no explosive shells for
the mountain artillery, etc, in the early
stages OF the war.
He does not shirk his own response
bility as minister Of war (before the
war broke QUIT but points out that the
causes of defeat were deeper. namely
the morale of the troops and of tho
officers, who did not display initiative,
dependence or enthusiasm, in spite OF
the iron nerves and heroic spirits Of
the soldiers.
All his the general boldly announces
is Attributable to the oppression of bu-
rcaucratio rule during the last fifty
years, which in the case Of officers drove
men of Independence from the service,
leaving only worthless drones.
He congratulates the troops upon the
advent of liberty and hope for the re-
generation Of the people.
General Kuropatkin gives the entire
losses Of the hrst Manchurian army,
which averaged o strength of 100000
men and 1900 officers, as 395 officers
killed and 1924 wounded and f0,435
men killed and $3.50 wounded, and
concludes with expressing the opinion
that the army should be 50 strengthened
in time Of peace that victory may be
certain in time OF war.

Weaver yesterday met the officers Of
the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Com
pauy. which controls all the railway
facilities Of the city, and practically
signed an agreement by which the sys-

The agreement includes rapid transit
BY subway and elevated lines, in three
years an assurance Of completion, and
the recovery By the city of millions Of
dollars worth OF franchises
While the old Republican organization
under the leadership Of Former state
Insurance Commissioners /. w. Durham
was in control OF the political situation
here, the Philadelphia Rapid Transit
Company secured franchises which pre-
cluded the possibility Of competition.
The company's failure To complete the
Market street subway within the stipu-
lated time compelled the corporation to
seek an extension OF three years in
which to finish the work. 1t was with.
in the mayors power to hold up this
work and, supported by the various bust

concessions tated by agreeing to grant
the extenion of time. The Philadelphia
