As Laid Down by Court Trouble Likely
for Insurance Companies.
[By Associated Pressl

your question Was there felonious
intent must BIZ answered by your
selves, but the court gave the law on
the subject and you are bound to take
it as the court gives it. If corporate
funds were diverted from the rightful
owner and given away without the
slightest expectation of profit or finan-
cial return, was any person deprived
OF his property? Has any citizen a
right to expect profit or financial re-
turn from such a transaction with a
political party? II person was de-
prived of his property and the trans
action was falsely accounted for, or
not accounted for at all, or ii there
were false entries to conceal it, or no
entries whatever, have you evidence
of intention to defraud?
"The answer is with you under in
structions from the court already CIV
en-, namely: That felonious intent is
criminal intent and criminal intent is
to take with the intent to deprive and
defraud. If you find that such Off
GERS did so misappropriate property,
the court charges you that it is your
duty to find that the crime of larceny
has been committed. In the perform
ance of our duties, we may meet with
many an unpleasant task, but duty is
often meritorious only as it's perform
ance is difficult and disagreeable.
True we should not be Influenced by
public clamor, but let us take care to
distinguish between the noise of the
rabble and the honest expression OF
public opinion

ENDS HUGE WASTE
House Adopts Resolutions in Line
With Presidents Suggestion Con-
cernine Printing Of Pub. Docs.
[By Associated Press1

Washington, March 26.-Following
the presidents suggestion, the house
today adopted several resolutions to
correct the useless printing of public
documents and to empower the print
ing committees OF the legislative bo-
dies to fix the number of documents to
be printed, and, should demand arise
for additional copies of publication,
then to have authority to order anoth-
er edition,
1t was claimed this action would
result in saving the government up
wards of million dollars annually.
Nearly the entire day was devoted
to District of Columbia business, this
being known as District day." Upon
the completion of the bills having only
a district interest, large number OF
bills local in character were passed.

I schedules, while he says a majority of
the republicans in the house do not
believe that there should be any
change at all.
He declares that the people have
not forgotten the disaster, politically
and commercially, which followed the
tariff change of 1890 and concludes
with the following reasoning:
Congress is not prepared to review
the tariff schedules in that calm, judi
cial frame of mind so necessary to the
preparation of a tariff act at a time
so near the coming congressional elec-
tions. The Dingley bill was the most
successful ever enacted. Its practi-
ca! results were so evident to the
country during the 1S months that
elapsed between it's passage and the
next election that the people have
continued the policy of that policy to
the present day. 1t would be unfor-
tunate should any precipitate action in
the future result in a temporary re-
versal in the policy of protection in
the United States. l cannot therefor
agree with your delegation that it
would be best at the present session
of congress to enter upon considera-
ton Of the tariff with a view to it's
revision and readjustment. While this
is my individual opinion, / have rea-
son to believe that it is also the judg-
ment of decided majority of the
committee on ways and means

the law over funds entrusted to such
officers that it prohibits in certain in

frequently considered in the business
world as standard securities. There
is wide range between such invest

that they have been so diverted you

JUST MERELY A VAGUE hint
Senate Talk Of Fixing the Time to Vote

Washington, March 26.-There was
hint today in the senate at an effort
to fix time for the final vote on the
railway rate bill, but it was surround
ed by so much uncertainty and doubt
that no prediction as to the time
would be justified. Mr. Tillman stat
ed that he would bring the matter up
in the senate tomorrow and unless OBJ
lection was then made he might ask
to have a day specified.
The suggestion as to time arose in

NORTHWESTERN TRAIN DROPS
INTO STREAM NEAR CASPER.
UNDERMINED BY FLOOD
PiIing Supporting Track Gives Way
After Locomotive Passes-Coach
Filled With Laborers Crushed by
Water Car Falling Onto 1t.

[By Associated Press1

Casper, Wyo., March 26.-Melting
snow and high water caused disas-
trous wreck on the Wyoming division
of the Chicago & Northwestern rail-
road, when work train, running to
Casper from the construction camps
west of Wolton, dropped into small
stream near Natrona, 20 miles west of
Casper, this morning.
Six men are known to have lost
their lives. One of these, Charles
Noll, was foreman of the outfit. The
names of the others have not been
learned. Twenty-one were injured
some fatally.
The wreck happened at o'clock as
the train was crossing the stream. The
engine passed over safely but it's
weight broke down the piling, which
had been undermined by the flood
waters, and the cars dropped into the
ravine. The one coach of the train
was filled with Austrian and Italian
laborers. This coach was telescoped
by heavy water car following and
was crushed like an eggshell. Many
of the passengers were caught under
the wreckage and it was hours before
they were taken out. One or two
were drowned and several were killed
outright. Several of the laborers who
were thrown into the water had mar
row escapes from drowning.
Word was sent to Casper as quickly
as possible but it was 18 hours before
relief could be extended to the injured.
The weakened condition of the
bridges, due to floods, made it unsafe
to send train to the wreck and
handcars were pressed into service
and three surgeons set out for the
scene. Shortly after starting the re-
lief party ran into a severe snow
storm and was compelled to abandon
the cars and proceed afoot In the
meantime piledrivers and a bridge
gang were sent from Rapid City and
the bridges west of Casper repaired.
At noon a relief train was sent out

directing the commission to establish
the Minnesota rates on fairer and
more equitable basis
Having received the schedules as
reported by the commission, a hearing
was set for two months ago. The
railroad officials asked for additional
time in order to prepare for the issue
and illumine the same with facts and
figures. Most Of the railroads center
ing in st. Paul were represented at
the hearing today, some of them by
counsel.
At the afternoon session President
A. B. Stickney of the Chicago Great
Western said that if the new rates
were put into effect it would mean a
reduction of So per cent and the re-
suit to railroads would be appalling.
He said the margin of safety between
railroad prosperity and railroad bank
ruptcy was between 10 and II per
cent, and he challenged the commits
sion to assume the responsibility for
bringing about such conditions as
would follow the enforcement of this
schedule.
The hearing will continue for a
week,

NO TlNKERING With TARIFF
Letter from Chairman of House Ways
and Means Committee.
by Associated Press]

Washington, March 26.-What may
be regarded as the final pronounce
ment against tariff revision at the
present session of congress is contain
ed in a letter from Chairman Payne
of the house ways and means commit
tee, in reply to a communication sent
him by Representative Mccall on be-
half of the Massachusetts delegation
in congress.
Mr. Mccall calls attention in his
communication to the declaration in
the republican state platform OF Mas
sachusetts for tariff revision with ad-
herence to the policy of protection
and to the declaration in the republi-
can national platform regarding the
readjustment of duties when condi-
tions demand, and entrusting the
question to republican president and
congress. The Massachusetts view as
printed is that conditions have so
changed as to demand a change in
the Dingley rates, which have served
nine years.
In his reply Mr.. Payne calls atten-
tion to the method by which tariff
legislation must be brought about
by a concurrent view of the majority
of the party in power. He next points
out that this concurrent view does
not exist. The house, he says, is di-
vided into groups of members, each
favoring the modification of different

FOUR FIREMEN KILLED IN BURN
ING BUILDING.
MANY PERSONS INJURED
Explosions Accompany Fire, shatter-
ing Blazing Structure and Buryine
Gallant Lads Under Debris-Thrill-
ing Escape of inmates.
[By Associated Press1

New York, March 26-Four firemen
perished and about score of firemen
and citizens were injured today in a
fire accompanied by series of explos-
ions that demolished a six-story foun-
dry building at Bedford and Downing
streets in the Greenwich village dis
trict, on the lower westside of the city.
That the damage, which is estimated
at from 100000 to 100000, was not
far greater was declared by Chief
Croker to be due to the explosions
which shattered the building and
crushed the blaze beneath tons of de-
bris at the moment when the flames
were completely beyond control and
threatening to eat up the entire block.
One of the firemen was taken out
alive, but died almost Immediately.
The bodies of his three comrades were
recovered after the fire was over,
crushed under the wreckage of floors
and walls that followed the explosion
The dead: Foreman John Walsh, and
Firemen George G. Christman,
Thomas L. Halpin, and ]. Healy, all of
engine company Ia.
Firemen Jacob Cohen and Lewis,
also of engine company IA, were burn
ed and bruised and removed to the hos
pital. The other persons injured were
for the most part employees in the fac
tory, dwellers in the adjacent tene-
ments and persons passing in the
street, who were struck by falling
bricks or fragments of glass, but none
of these was seriously hurt.
Three hundred men and women
were in the factory during the lunch
hour, when slight explosion occurred
on one of the upper floors and almost
instantly the whole structure was en-
veloped in flames. Some had time to
reach the street by the stairs, but the
greater number were compelled to
take refuge on the fire escapes, where
they remained huddled together and
imploring assistance until the fire en-
gines arrived.
Before the fire ladders could be run
up, policemen and firemen and volrtn-
teers formed human pyramid against

THEIR FINAL WORD
Miners Present UItimatum on Scale
Dispute to operators-Definite Ans
wer Will be Given Today.
GBy Associated Pressl

Indianapolis, March 26.-The Uni
ted Mine Workers of America, through
John Mitchell, president of the organi-
zation, T. l.. Lewis, vice president of
the National union, and Herman G.
Perry, president of the Illinois miners,
this afternoon presented to the coal
operators in the executive session of
the joint scale committee of the CEN
trail competitive district their ultima
tum on the dispute over the wage
scale.
The demand of the miners as stated
in their ultimatum is for restoration
of the wage scale of 1903, which is an
increase of 5.55 per cent.
Upon the receipt of the ultimatum
the operators secured an adjournment
of the committee until tomorrow morn
ing, when it is expected a definite ans
wer to the miners will be given. 1t is
anticipated that this reply will be a
refusal by the operators, and the COM
mittee will report a disagreement to
the joint conference of miners and
operators. The fight in that case will
be continued on the floor of the Joint
conference.
Tonight there is as little prospect
for an agreement being reached as
there has been at any time.
