COMMITTEE EAADRABIY RE
PORTS RESOLUTIONS CALL
ING FOR INFORMATION
FATHfRED BY CANNON
Without Dissenting Vote House
Committee on judiciary Takes
Action on Resolutions.
Trust Denounced

Washington, April BY unani-
nous vote the house committee on
the judiciary yesterday agreed to re-
port fayorably the paper trust res
olutions introduced April 2 by
Speaker Cannon.
One of these resolutions directs
the attorney general to inform the
house what steps have been taken to
investigate and prosecute the In
ternational Paper company of New
York and other corporations or COM
binations engaged in the manufac-
ture of wood pulp or print paper.
The other resolution directs the
secretary of commerce and labor to
inform the house what steps have
been taken by the bureau of corpor-
ations toward investigating the al
legged paper trust
The resolutions subsequently were
called up in the house and passed.
After Mr. Clayton of Alabama had
denounced the paper trust as "cri-
minal trade conspiracy, and Mr..
Williams had called attention to the
facility with which the resolutions
had been reported because they had
been offered by the speaker, Mr..
Payne, chairman of the committee on
ways and means, got the floor.
Does any one suppose he said,
that by the passing of bill put
ting wood pulp or paper on the free
list in the tWinkling of an eye you
can transfer the industry from the
United States to Canada, or that,
under the present circumstances the
Canadian government will not inn
| pose an extra exact duty on pulp
logs? If this We're done, where would
| you get your relief? Where would
you get your cheaper paper? Where
, in the name of common sense would
you benefit anybody in this country.
/ Mr.. Payne said he knew there was
| some cheap talk about taxing in
ltelligence, but" he asked, "why not
| hear this subject as intelligent mer
and not go into Mysteries over the
| matter?'
Addressing the democrats, Mr.
! Payne said the difficulty was that the
democrats felt there were too many
votes behind the newspaper people
OF the country, "who under a pro-
lection which comes, not from the
tariff, but from localities that have
a monopoly of the newspaper busi-
ness of the United States, try to rush
to action, without investigating and
without looking into the facts

TWO MEXICANS MEET DEATH
ON A RAILROAD
BRIDGE.
BODIES ARE ftUTILATtD
One Man Was Dragged Twenty Ca.
Lengths and Legs Severed,
While the Other Has
Head Mashed.

While running at a great rate of
speed Wednesday afternoon about
lao O'Clock an extra Houston and
Texas Central railway stock train
crashed into section hand car load
ed with six men, on Sycamore creek
bridge about four miles south of
Fort Worth, killing two Mexicans in
stantly, and scattered the smashed
fragments of the car to the four
winds of the heavens Survivors of
the catastrophe state that the clouds
literally rained pieces of handcar for
q few moments following the collis-
| ion. The train was pulled by engine
No 319.
Manuel Martinez and @. Lopez,
the two MeXicans killed, perhaps
never knew what struck them. One
was ground under the wheels of the
train and dragged distance of
about twenty car lengths before the
train could be stopped, both legs be-
ing severed and his head split. The
others head was literally cut in two,
! the gaping wound running back from
his forehead to the back of his
! neck. The remaining members of
the party had presence of mind
/
cling to the sides of the bridge, but
one of the Mexicans appeared to
have been literally paralyzed with
terror and remained on the doomed
! car, while the other was caught by
! the pilot while in the act of running
across the track.
| Justice Bratton of Fort Worth
was hurriedly summoned to the
| scene and was carried out in a spe-
cial engine and baggage car. The
body of the man on the bridge had
! fallen down through the trestle and
I his arms had kept the body from
! falling through into the creek. His
| body had been hurled against one of
/ the iron girders of the bridge with
| fearful force, and the features were
| mashel almost beyond recognition
/ by the force of the impact.
| Fragments of the car were scat
tered all around the spot on the
| banks of the stream below
! The only cause assigned for the
accident was that the section men
| did not know Of the approach of the
train until too late to get the car off
/ the bridge. The engineer of the train
stated that as soon as he observed
the car he applied the full emergen-
| cy brakes, and even then the train
was only stopped about twenty car
! lengths after striking the handcar.
| The remaining men were badly sha-
/ ken up but unhurt. The two dead
men worked on the section out of
! Fort Worh and little was learned re-
| garding their home or connections.
