WOULD PROTECT POLICEMEN.
Commissioners Would Safeguard Them
While Going to n Fire.

That measures are TO be taken by the
District authorities to protect members
of the police and fire departments while
on their way to fires is shown by the
statement made by Commissioner West
yesterday. He directed that the assistant
corporation counsel be instructed TO give
special attention TO the case Of the five
policemen. who were injured on Friday
lest, while on their may to a fire.
The report of Capt. Daniel SuIIican. OF
the Second precinct. viii be referred to
the corporation counsel with Instructions
to report on the disposition or the case
now pending in the Police Court. Com
missioner West has moved that the cor
poration counsel be instructed TO institute
proceedings in the higher courts so as 10
protect the interests Of the injured police
men
The action proposed in this case.
said Commissioner West, establishes a
precedent IN the District administration.
but It IS one that seems to me 10 be in
every way worthy Of adoption. 1t means
that when a policeman or fireman is in
1ured in the actual performance Of his
duty by criminal carelessness the Dis
trict Will undertake, through the cor
poration counsel, to protect mis- inter-
ests. I have conferred with the corpora
ton counsel on the matter. and ne agrees
with me that the case presents a different
phase from an accident which may befall
a policeman or fireman who. while a
passenger on a street car. happens to be
injured.

Nearly fifteen years ago Edgar c. Snyder
came to the National Capital to represent
the Omaha Bee Born in the keystone
State. and a graduate OF the law depart
ment OF the University Of Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Snyder went West TO practice his pro-
fession, but within two years had become
news editor Of the Topeka (Kans.)
Capital, and later city editor Of the
Omaha Republican. In 1857 Mr.. Snyder
joined the staff OF the Omaha Bee, illing
almost every position on that paper
editing telegraph and city copy, writing
dramatic and art reviews, and covering
for the Bee one OF it's most important
departments, that OF railroads, wherein
he won his spurs.
Mr.. Snyder has made a close study OF
Masonic symbolism, and the literature or
that great fraterna society. and. so far
as is known. is the only honorary thirty
third degree Scottish Rite Mason OF the
Southern jurisdiction in the press gal
lery.
He represents In addition 10 the Omaha
Bee. the Denver Post. the Winnipeg Tele-
gram. Grand Forks u. Dak.) Times, aud

TRYING TO FIX PROGRAMME
Senate and House Leaders Confer on
New Legislation.
Outline Tentative Plan which Does
Not Include All that the
President Desires.

Republican leaders OF the Senate and
House began conferences yesterday with
a view 20 agreeing on legislation for the
rest OF the Congressional session.
II is evident from what is known Of
their purposes that this is not to be a
'do-nOthing' Congress. in the sense in
which that expression has been used.
While it Is too early TO indicate even the
plan Of the leaders. the present prospect
Is that in addition to the appropriation
bills they viii include in their programme
the following measures: A financial bill
along the lines OF the Aldrich bill. a reso-
luton providing for tariff inquiry by a
House committee or by a joint committee
Of the House and Senate with view 10
revising the tariff In 1853, and a new en-
ployers' liability bill
Whether there viii be an effort 10
amend the antitrust law viii depend upon
the character OF the legislation which the
administration wants. Any attempt 70
make comprehensive revision OF the law
win be resented, il is understood. and
any suggestion of change which includes
eKempting labor unions from the opera
tions OF the law Will il is said. result in
the defeat Of the effort
President Roosevelt has completed the
special message in which he viii urge
Congress 10 enact certain measures This
message contains probably all the rec
concentrations in his special message OF
January 81, but is much milder in tone
and comparatively brief. II is said that
the reason for its preparation is that the
message OF January 81 was so long that
very few people read il. and the President
now intends 70 send 1t again to Congress
in tabloid form, with wholesome elm
ination of adjectives and bitter language.

WOULD ABOLISH NAVY IRONS.
Representative Esch ROundIy scores
Their Use.

Judge Advocate General Campbell. OF the
Navy Department yesterday appeared be
fore a subcommittee OF the House Com
mIttee on Naval Affairs. 10 argue against
the Esch bill. aboHshing the use Of arms
or irons. single or double. in the navy.
Judge Campbell said that the use OF
arms on board war vessels is absolutely
necessary in many cases lie said that
when the brig is fun OF unruly sea
men. the only thing that can be done
TO preserve order is to put recalcitrant
tackles in arms.
Representative Esch. OF Wisconsin. who
is the author OF the bill. said that the
abolition Of arms or irons is a thing
that must rebound 10 the credit Of the
American navy.
The use OF irons as a form OF punish
ment IN the United States navy Is a
survival Of baTbarism and Is on the
same footing as fiogging." he said. ~Flog-
ging has been abolished. The use of
irons in the army has been discontinued
for humanitarian reasons. There is no
reason why irons should be used in the
navy, because on all ships there is what
is known as a brig. which. upon ship
board, corresponds 20 a prison.

headquarters II was decided to call of
a projected public mass meeting and 10
cease further agitation against Speaker

PRAISE FOR NEGROES

in Plymouth Church.
DISCUSSES POLITICAL ASPECT
Secretary OF War and Booker T.
Washington Declare that AmeIio-
ration Of COI0red MINIS Condition
VIII COme-NegrO Domination In
the south Is Called Nightmare.

New York, March 16.-Secretary of War
William H. Taft delivered an address on
the negro question tonight before an
audience that filled Plymouth Church, in
Brooklyn.
So great was the desire to hear Mr..
Taft and Booker r. Washington. who
spoke with him, that an hour before the
meeting there were lines Of people
stretching for several blocks from the two
entrances.
The police and the fire department had
evidently anticipated that a big crowd
would turn out Probably or account of
the nature OF the e5ifce. they refused
TO allow any staadees. consequently a
great many persons were disappointed by
not getting IN.
Secretary Taft read long and carefully
prepared speech, IN which he reviewed
the attempts made to raise the condition
Of the negroes since the war, and also
discussed the political aspects OF tine
question and an exclusion Of a large part
Of the negroes from suffrage
Wants Law ImpartiaIIy Enforced.
The point which Mr.. Taft seemed 10 de-
sire to make was that while 1t was un-
doubleday true that the educational and
property qualifications were intended 10
be enforced only against the negro, and
not against the whites, yet no one. under
the Constitution. could object to such
qualifications where there was a large,
lilliterate population. What the negroes
had a right 20 object 10, he said. was
the practical enforcement Of such n law
10 the exclusion Of the ignorant negroes
and not 10 ignorant white persons.
Nix Taft declared that all the signs IN
the SOut,- cpinted 10 an ameliOratiOn Of
the conditions which had brought this
about. and 10 a more equal and impartial
I enforcement of these laws because politi-
cal and economical wisdom demanded il.

sable 10 the business prosperity Of the
South" he continued. and his political
influence viii take care Of itself"

was a dream and nightmare Of the past
The true basis Of political influence any
where. he said. was Industrial independ-
ence, and in helping the negro Hampton
and Tusbegee were solving the political
problem.
Possibly because Of the subduing effect
of-the place in which the meeting was
held. the applause which greeted AIr Taft
was not prolonged. and only twice did il
break out during his speed
The meeting was under the auspices OF
the Brooklyn Armstrong Association, and
was for the purpose OF helping Hampton

This was kito's second love for a white
