SCHIff PROPOSES A
RAILROAD CONFERENCE

New York. March 27.-Jacob 81.
Schiff, head of the banking firm of
Kuhn, Loeb & Co, said in an inter-
view which appears in the Times,
that the fear that something excep-
tionally distressing will happen to the
railroads in the way of legislations is
more accountable for the present state
of affairs in the stock market than the
money market is. Mr.. Schiff contin-
ued:
"The real problem seems to me to
be in the railroad situation. 1 have
thought it over carefully, trying to
keep in mind the point of view both of
the railroads and the government, and
it appears to me that possible solu-
ton is to be found in the adoption of
a plan the main features of which
shall be these:
"First. the appointment by the rail-
roads themselves of certain number
of representative railroad men con-
versant with that side of the matter,
who should go into convention or con-
ference with the mem bers of the inter-
state commerce commission, that body,
of course, representing the govern
ment.
"In this conference could be fair
and frank discussion of all proposals
for railroad legislation IF every kind,
and it ought to be possible for such a
body of men to agree upon planform
legislation which would receive the
sanction of the president, of the peo-
pie generally and of stockholders in
railroads. This could be made the
basis of legislation by congress and
it would be of such a thorough nature
as would make it unnecessary for in
dividual states to do more than follow
the lines laid down here"

Parliament at Pretoria.
Pretoria, Transvaal, March a.
The first parliament of the Transvaal
colony under the newly granted con-
stitution. is now in session here. In a
speech at the opening of the legisla-
ture the Earl of Selbourne, the high
commissioner for South Africa, dealt
with the question Of Chinese labor.
He said:
ssMy ministers have resolved that
the employment of Chinese in the
mines should cease at the earliest
possible moment. As to the Chinese
already employed there. the miners
will not take any steps to prevent
the repatriation at the end OF their
indentures unless they are convinced
that such repatriation will have to
take effect before an effective substi-
tute. either in the form of other I'M

in which case miners will be prepared

WOULD ABOLISH RED TAPE
Garfield VIII Try to Adopt Business
Methods In interior Denartmen%

Methods m Interior Department.
Washington, March 26.-Secretary
Garfield Is organizing the interior do.
partment with a view to facilitating
public business and eliminating red
tape. He is transforming an obsolete
governmental machine into one Of
modern business methods and doing
away with fully one third of the labor
required under the old regime.
Beginning Monday Mr.. Garfield will
abolish the public lands and Indian
territory divisions Of the interior de-
partment, divisions which heretofo, q
handled all business coming to the
secretary from the general land office
and Indian Office. Their functions
were superfluous and had no good
effect. On the contrary, these divisions
made unnecessary work and delay,
and we're largely responsible for fric
tt m and trouble between Secretary
Hitchcock and the one hand and the
land and Indian offices on the other.
j. A. Parker, former chief of the
lands division, who has thorough
knowledge of department methods, is
to be made Mr.. Garfield's private sec.
rotary, but will not participate in the
formulation of departmental policy.
Clerks of his and other divisions will
be absorbed by the land and Indian
offices. These reforms were recon-
mended by the Keep commission, Of
which Mr.. Garfield was member.
The president heartily approves the
change and looks for great improve
ment in the department in conse-
quence, especially as the changes
bring the new secretary in close per-
-sonal touch with the chiefs of all bu-
reaus of his department and obliter-
ates the bothersome Intermediary.

TRYING TO RESTORE PEACE

Close Alliance With Mexico.

Washington, March 2S.-'I propose

establish in Central America and ever
lasting peace between Mexico and the

This statement by Secretary Root

In honor of Mr.. and Mrs. Root, set at

between Mexico and the United States

ROIJNANIAN PEASANT
RISING IS ALARMING

Vienna, March 27.-The rising of
the peasants in Roumania, is assuming
the proportions of civil war. The
movement is directed not only against
the Jews, but also against the Chris
tan land owners. The trouble now ex-
tends from one end of Roumania to
the other, and even the capital city,
Bucharest, is in fear of an attack.
Reports of sanguinary encounters
received each day show the disorders
to be more deep seated and far reach
ing and the situation more serious.
There was sanguinary fighting in
the streets of Peterson yesterday,
when 1000 peasants, led by three
Students, entered the city and asked
and destroyed many buildings, includ-
ing the palace of Prince Stirbey.
In the districts of Teleceiman and
Vlashica twenty-three land proprie-
tors have been killed and forty two
villages have been burned.
Probably the most serious of the
engagements occurred at Alexandria,
about SO miles from Bucharest, where
sixty men we're killed and 800 wound.

thing possible to suppress the disor-
ders and reinforcements are being
moved rapidly into the troublesome

vance of the peasants on Bucharest
continues. Up to the present time it
has been impossible to divert them.
There is great alarm in the Rouman-
ian capital. The garrisons in eight
cen of the forts forming the defense
of the city have been increased and
the royal palace, where King Carol
and Queen Carmen Sylvireside, is
strongly protected by soldiers.

NICARAGUA VICTOR
HONDURAN ARMY DEFEATED and
BONILLA In Flight.
To All Intents and Purposes Cen
trail American War Has Ended,
But Dream Of Empire May Be
Crushed By Mexico and United
States.

City of Mexico, March 25.-It now
looks as though the contemplated in
PREVENTION by the United States and
Mexico to end the war in Central
America had been delayed too long.
To all intents and purposes the war is
ended.
Defeated, his army routed or prison
ers, his munitions Of war in the hands
of the enemy, President Bonilla, of
Honduras, has abandoned the con-
fict and fed from his country by sail.
Warships Of the Nicaraguan govern
ment are pursuing him and it is be
lieved he will be captured. It is ex-
pected that guerilla warfare may be
kept up for some time against the in
vaders, but there is nothing in the
way of an organized army between
President Zelaya and the Honduran
capital and nothing to prevent his
entering the city whenever he desires.
Will Invade Salvador
Whether he will continue his tri-
umphal march to the capital of Saliva
dor remains to be seen, but as he has
expressed his intention of organizing
all Central American republics into
a single large country, it is believed
he will follow this course.
The brilliant campaign which has
resulted in the total discontinue of
Nicaragua's enemies has been one of
the most notable in the history of
Central or South America.
Almost within week Of the time
he set foot on foreign soil the invader
has the entire country at his mercy.
Crush Dream Of Empire
It is believed here that Mexico and
the United States will act to prevent
his dream of empire reaching fulfill
ment, but as there is believed to have
been no depredations committed by
his soldiers upon either foreign resi-
dents or foreign property, it is not
known upon what grounds interference
\ will be based.
1t might almost seem that Zelaya,
knowing that plans we're on foot to
end the war, even if it became neces
sary to employ force to do 80, hasten.
ed his operations with all possible
speed and succeeded in defeating the
object of the American and Mexican
nations.
