HEARST TO HAVE
LONDON PAPER
NEW YORK EDITOR WILL GIVE
ENGLAND TASTE OF YELLOW
JOURNALISM.

LONDON, Jan. SO.-Tbe latest
thing journalistic here, quite over
shadowing the recent sale of the
Times, is the coalition reported to
have been formed b. William Ran,
dolph Hearst, Of New York, owner OF
string Of sensational papers in the
United States, and the Countess OF
Warwick, to publish a paper in this
city in the interest of labor and the
suffragettes. The Countess, who Is
famous on both sides of the Atlantic
for many things, not the least OF
which is her declaration, made not
long ago, that she had socialistic
leanings, has just returned from a visit
TO America, where she went with the
openly avowed intention of raising
money with which to start a paper In
this country to exploit the peculiar
views which she has been advocating
recently.
In America she was close to Mr.
Hearst, it is said, and he, believing
there was an opening for a paper Of
the kind she proposed in London, fell
in with her. scheme. The Countess
returned TO England empowered, II is
said, to take preliminary steps toward
the publication of paper, Of which
Mr.. Hearst will be principal owner
and Of which she will De chief editor.

FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. S0.-Advo-
Gates Of the extension of the county
unit law, to make 1t applicable to ev-
cry county in the State, won first
blood in the fight for the bill today,
when the House decided by vote Of
IS to SO to recommit the bill to the
Committed on Public Morals, instead
of sending the bill to the Committee
on Kentucky Statutes. the fight was
a hard one and brought several of the
members on their feet to speak for or
against the motion to rccommit to
the Kentucky Statutes Committee.
During the debate insinuatlons were
made that the purpose of the motion
was to kill the bill. and charges and
counter-charges were made by both
sides.

CLEVELAND. o.. Jan. S0.-McKin
ley, the martyred President, was the
keynote OF several addresses deliy.
cred at the Tippecanoe Clubs annual
Mckinley day banquet here tonight,
at which Secretary OF War William
H. Taft was the guest Of honor. The
Secretary spoke on 'The Republic"
All Of the speakers confined their re-
marks to the life and deeds of Nc
Kinley, who was eulogized as an IL
lustrious son of Ohio, and a discus
sion of problems engendered by the
Spanish-AmericaD War and the ac-
QUESTION of the Philippine Islands and
the islands of the caribbean.
Ohio politics were not overlooked
by Secretary Taft. For over an hour
he conferred with his State manager,
Arthur l. Worry, Walter c. Brown,
chairman of the Republican State
Committee, and local leaders. The
real fight was left in the hands Of
Vorys and Brown.
Mr.. Taft will leave here tomorrow
morning, going direct to Washing
ton.
There were some expectations that
the banquet would develop a political
air, owing to the presence of Mr.. Taft
in his own State, the hotbed of his
spirited contest with his fellow-towns- |
man, Senator Joseph B. Foraker, in
the race for the Republican presiden-
-ial nomination. Not only did the
Secretary and the other speakers con-
inc themselves to Mckinley eulogies,
)ut Mr.. Taft at no time during his
stay here made any public references
o political matters. On several oc-
;asions during the day and at the ban
luet the Secretary was humorously
eferred to as the next President"
nut Mr.. Taft made no reply to these
allies to which any meaning could be
ttached.

MESSAGE FROM
THE PRESIDENT
ROOSEVELT URGES CHANGES 10,
THE LIABILITY LAW UPON
CONGRESS.
HITS RICH MALEFACTORS HARD
Reviews in Severest Manner His
Attack on Lawless Cor
porations.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-The Pres
ident today sent to Congress a special
message regarding amendments to the
employers liability law, urging COM
pensatiOns to persons injured in the
Government service, including those
employed on the Panama Canal; ask
ing legislation to correct the abuse of
injunctions in labor cases, repeating
his recommendations for regulating
corporations engaged in interstate
commerce and a certain measure Of
Government control o.er the operation
of railroads, and again asking amend
ments to the Sherman antitrust law
so as to permit the licensing of cor
porations. He also suggests that, ii
possible, there should be legislation
TO prevent stock watering and over
capitalization, as well as stock gamb.
ling in securities and commodities.
The President also makes a Wig
orous reply to attacks on the Admin
istration made by some of the big cor
porations.
Upon the conclusion of the reading
of the measure, Senator Davis. OF
Arkansas, was promptly upon his feet
and moved that 10000 copies of the
message be printed as a public docu-
ment. 1T is the best Democratic doc
trine that | have ever heard emana !
ting from a Republican source" said
Mr.. Davis.
The motion was agreed to, and
without further comment the message
was referred to the Committee on In
terstate Commerce.
AS the reading of the message pro-
crossed in the House, numerous mem
bers were heard audibly to exclaim,
"most unusual" this is red hot" etc.
The Presidents vigorous denuncia-
ton of wrongdoers was greeted with
loud applause, as was his defense of
Federal Judges who punish offenders
for violations of the law.
The climax came when the reading
was concluded. Without regard to
party the members loudly applauded,
cheered, thumped their desks, and
gave other evidences of their approval
of the document. After a momentary s
silence the applause broke out again, {
several members, including many |
Democrats, arising from their seats i
and clapping their hands. I

KA1sEa,s OPERA BILL $500, 600.
when He Command. . reriorm..e

when He Commands Performance
He Buys Out the House.
Some interesting statistics are pub
lished regarding the extent to which
the German Emperor personally subsi-
dies the Royal Opera House and the
Royal Theater in Berlin, says the New
York Times. OF total of S625, O00
expended on them by the Prussian
budget, s112,50O is contributed from
the Kaiser's private exchequer. In adj
dition he bears the annual deficit, some
thing like $4,000, sometimes as much
as 100000.
Thus the imperial patronage of dra-
matte and operate arts represents a
tidy sum Of over 100000 per annum.
Even this, however, does not exhaust
the list of the Kaiser's theatrical ex-
penses, for every time he commands a
performance, the seats for which are
distributed to his personal guests and
friends. he must buy out the entire seat
ing capacity of the theater, averaging
total of $1,250 for each such affair.
The salaries of the Kaiser's operate
and dramatic stars are, of course, small
compared with those paid In New York.
Not one gets more than $4,000 year.
The general manager of the whole royal
theatrical department receives only 81
500 year in addition to the free use
of the official residence. Nevertheless,
the bill the Kaiser Will have to foot at
the end Of this year will be the heavi-
est he has ever paid, for 1t includes
the cost of producing his cherished 11|l
torical pageant, the Assyrian pahto-
mime, "Sardanapalus.' which alone
cost over $4,000 before the curtain
rose on the first performance.
