EVANS IN CHARGE
Rear Admiral Thomas HoWev-
err, Will Represent Him at
Official Ceremonies.
WELCOME AT CALLAO.

CalIao, Feb. 21-The American bat
tie ship fleet under Rear Admiral Ev-
ans, looking clean and trim and pow
in the port Of Callao.
Callao is in holiday array, wishing
to show that Peruvian hospitality is
second to none in South America, and
many thousands viewed from the
wharves, the headlands and the ships
in the harbor the imposing scene.
Enthusiastic crowds are going on ex-
cursion steamers and cheering the
American men-of-war
The only regrettable feature of the
entertainments arranged in honor of
the visitors is the fact that the com
mander himself, Rear Admiral Evans,
will not be able to attend. 1t was
stated that Admiral Evans, who has
been suffering almost from the begin
ming of the voyage from rheumatism,
is slightly better, but he does not feel
that he should risk the danger of
coming ashore.
Rear Admiral Thomas, commander
of the second squadron. will represent
him at the official ceremonies attend
ant upon the visit, but Rear Admiral
Evans is still the commander of the
fleet
The battle ships will remain here
probably for ten days and will be
joined by the torpedo boat hotilla
near the close of their stay at Callao.
Arrangements have been made for
festivities of all kinds, including a
bull fight, at which not less than
5000 of the blue Jackets will be seen.
and a regatta for which presentations
have been goirg on for several weeks.
President Pardo will give a public re-
ception to the officers this afternoon
and Washington's birthday will be
made gala occasion.

Washington. D. c., Feb. 21.-Cluh
women of Washington have again be-
come interested in the subject, race
suicide" and the keen interest mani
tested in the discussions would make 1t
appear that the matter was being dis
cussed for the first time.
Cardinal Gibbons has just uttered
some very able criticism on the sub
iect. and has expressed in letters OF
gold the duty of a wife and mother. He
emphasizes the crime of older women
insructing young mothers how to
avoid the responsibilities of mother
hood
The Cardinals Characterization OF
'indiscretions and designations that
seem to fascinate some of the Amerl-
can women within recent years is not
too severe and no doubt many inno-
cent young women are influenced by
their older associates to avoid care SO
as to enjoy "a good time" without
realizing that while they succeed in re-
lieying themselves of care and respon-
sibility they are committing a great
mral wrong.
The fact that they have been mar
ried does not lessen their crime or
place them above those whose aban-
doned lives these same women express
great horror.
If women are to be held blameless
for the practice of race suicide, the ma
ton is destined to serious degeneration

woman is the pattern of virtue,

Magazine.

Washington, Feb. 21-Collier's
Weekly. which has achieved a reputa-
ton for making charges against pub
lie men, finds itself facing a damage
stunt for 10000 in the supreme court
of the District of Columbia. The
plaintiff is William Wolf Smith, an ex-

William II. Smith. the veteran Indiana
historian.
Mr.. Smith, who is a publicity agent,
alleges that Golfers Weekly libeled

falls into separated streams. The to-
tai length of both falls will be con-
tracted from nearly 1000 feet to, say,
LOCO, and the diameter of the great
fall from ! 200 to 500 feet. This di-
version of the water will produce a
shrinkage of the horseshoe, so that
what remains will be entirely on the
Canadian side of the boundary line.

to be found In his report. This fact
Is stated merely as corroborating the
statement that Garfield found that the
illegal combination existed.
1t is not generally known that Rep
resentative Martin, who introduced the
beef trust resolution on which Garfield
reported, saw Mr.. Garfield many times
after the passage Of the resolution and
furnished the Department of Commerce
and Labor with facts and the names of
witnesses. Mr.. Martin in fact saw Mr..
Garfield only a short time ago
There Is very little surprise express
ed here that chapter o Of the Garfield
report was withheld from publication.
II can be stated, however, that there
should have been not the slightest I'm
propriety In handing 1t to the Attorney
General for use In the case against the
packers.
Representative Martin would not and
did not furnish to Mr.. Garfield the
names Of any Of the beef packers. Mr..
Martin mentioned, as one witness for
instance, a man who sold a carload of
cattle in Chicago one day and had the
good sense to wait and see what be-
came Of 1t. He found that the cattle
were divided among seven concerns
that night, although there was only one
bid for the cattle that day. This was
violation Of the injunction then sup.
posed TO be in force, and 1t Is known
that there were other witnesses and
ample witnesses to prove the violation.
1t can be stated on authority that
chapter OF the Garfield report Is not
TO femain unpublished. 1t will, how
ever, not be sent to Congress until the
conclusion Of the cases against the beef
trust.

ed on orders OF the ''man higher up"
and relates to and discusses these three
propositions, and only these three:
First-What was the cause in March,
1904, and about that time for the un.
usually large margin between the price
Of cattle and dressed beef for market? :?
Second-Was that wide margin the
result Of combination by the packers
in violation OF the Sherman law?
Third--Was the injunction against
the packers being then violated?
All OF these questions are answered
affirmatiyely In chapter 8 OF the re-
port OF Mr.. Garfield. The facts on
which he arrived at his conclusions
were not furnished by the beef pack
ers but on suggestions to witnesses,
etc, furnished by Representative Mar
tin Of South Dakota.
Chapter 8 was held In reserve be-
cause the case against the packers had
been decided upon, and II the chapter
had been known to Congress the pack
ers would have known the complete re-
suit Of the Garfield investigation under
the resolution OF Representative Mar
tin which was passed by the House in
January. 1904
In his resolution Representative
Martin asked that Garfield determine
II the wide difference between the price
Of cattle and dressed beef proved a
violation Of the Sherman antitrust
law.
According to the resolution Mr.. Gar
field, II he found such violation, was to
report on the capitalization OF the
packers combine, their organization,
profits, etc.
Mr.. Garfield DID REPORT on this
latter phase OF the resolution, and 1t Is
