Washington, April Representative
r p Hobson of Alabama speaking on
the need of larger navy before the
house to-day declared that failure to
maintain our naval superiority over
Japan is to invite war. The United
States, he said. could not ignore the
fact that warlike activities have been
going on In Japan Eat feverish rate"
since the war with Russia.
In conclusion, Mr.. Hobson said:
1T may be remarked that. at this
critical jur9.ure, Wien the world Is
drifting towards wars. that the failure
on the part of America to build up the
naval power adequate to keep peace
in the Pacific Ocean will be liable to
entail not only war between America
and Japan, but ultimately a war be-
tween the White race and tho Yellow
race, and engender a hatred and anger
between the races that would prevent
tho carrying Of tho gospel of peace

ADMITS REBATlNG
Great Northern Claims Sugar
Shipments Made Before
Elkins Law Was
Enacted.

New York, April 6.-The case of
the Government against the Great
Northern Railway company, In which
charges of violating the Elkins anti
ROTATING law are involved, was heard
before Judge Holt and a jury in the
United States circuit court to-day.
Counsel for the defence admitted
that rebates had been granted to the
American Sugar Refining company,
aggregating Srf.599. but claimed that
as the shipments were made In 1902,
before the Elkins law went into eff
feet he would ask the jury to acquit
his clients.
The governments counsel contend
cd however, that even though the
shipments were made before the pas
sage of the law, the rebates were paid
two years later or in 1904 and that
the railroad company therefore must
be held liable.
Both sides rested their cases on the
agreed state of facts that the sugars
had been transported in 1902. that
the Elkins law was enacted in 1908
and the rebates paid in 1904. Judge
Holt said he would not charge the
Jury until tomorrow and ordered an
adjournment until that time.

LIABILITY BILL
PASSED BY HOUSE
Railroads Held Liable for Per
sonal Injuries of En-
ployes in Their
Service.
BUT ONE VOTE AGAINST 1T
That Cast by Mr.. Llulchcld, OF
Maine--Scnate Lays the
Measure on the
Table.

Washington, April with only
one vote recorded against II, that of
Mr.. Littleheld of Maine, the house of
representatives to-day under suspen-
sion OF the rules. passed the Sterling
employers liability bill, after forty
minutes debate. In brief, the bill es-
tablishes the doctrine that the rail-
road companies engaged In interstate
commerce are liable for personal in
Juries received by employees In the SER
vice Of such carriers. 1t abollshes tho
strict common law rule OF liability
which bars a recovery for the person
al injury or death of an employe, oc-
casioned by the negligence of Il fell
low servant. 1t also relaXes the com
mon law rule which makes contrlbu-
tory negligence a defense to claims
for such injuries A provision, how
ever. diminishes the amount of the
recovery in ths same degree that the
negligence of the injured one contrib
uted TO the injury. The bill further
makes each party responsible for his
own negligence and requires each TO
bear the burden thereof.
The bill as passed by the house was
transmitted to the senate later in the
day and on motion of Senator Deliver
was laid on the table subject to being
called UP at any time, Mr.. Deliver
explained that the bill is quite similar
to the measure reported to the sem
ate from the committee on education
and labor.
Mr.. Dolliver will probably move to
substitute the senate measure for the
house bill and after the senate acts
will then leave to conference the task
of agreeing upon a compromise meas
ure.
The house bill Is much more sweep
ing than the senate BILL as It applies
to all common carriers" while the
senate bill applied only to common
carriers by railroads
In the house Minority Leader Will
liams said he welcomed the oppor-
tunity to illustrate to the country how
quickly, and how rapidly We can join
in passing remedial legislation"
The democrats applauded the state
ment. Continuing, Mr.. Williams said
the democrats would be glad to be
furnished with more like 1t 'and to
repeat the illustration as each rene
dial bill is furnished to the house. It
was" he said, "the first encourage
ment In some time"
Mr.. Payne denounced the democrats
for delaying by half an hour the pass
age Of the bill by forcing roll call
. on the approval of the Journal.
