along this line in way which eventually
will accomplish its purpose without too
drastic or radical action.
1t is proposed that the Interstate Com
merce Commission be given authority to
suspend for 80 days the carrying into
effect of new rate classification. provid-
ed complaint is made that the new rates
are unjust. 1t is argued that in this way
the shipper is given equal rights with the
railroads which are permitted to take ap-
peals from orders of the commission.
The subject which has given the Presi-
dent and his advisors much concern is
the proposal to permit railroads to pool
rates. The President takes the position
that railroads should be permitted to
agree upon traffic rates that shall not
exactly be pooling contracts, but shall
constitute agreements as to rates-pro-
vided always that such agreements re-
ceive the approval of the Interstate Com
merce Commission In this way the OPP

ROSEBERRY SOUNDS PLAIN
WARNING TO THE LORDS,
Reminds Them That Very Life Itself OF
House of Lords Is involved in Present
Fight Over Budget and Points Out In
expediency of Adopting Lans=
downe Resolution of Rejection.

London, Nov 24.-Lord Roseberry
the former Liberal prime minister, to-
day raised the historic struggle be-
tween the Lords and the House of
Commons to a new plane by one of the
finest speeches he has ever delivered
in which he warned the Lords of the
grave risks they were running if they
adopted Lord Lansdowne's resolution
TO reject the budget. If possible still
greater interest was manifested in to-
days debate. There was not sufficient
room to seat all the peers attending,
while the public galleries were crowd
ed to their utmost capacity. The
Duchess of Connaught headed long
list of the foremost peeresses. many of
whom were compelled to stand
throughout
Lord Salisbury resumed the debate
with a speech supporting Lord Lans-
downs resolution. after the Archbishop
of Canterbury had said that the biSh-
OPS would stand aside from the discus

Lords plain warning of the danger of
the path they were treading. He said:

PARTY and speak from my sense of the
awful gravity of the situation. This
is the greatest political moment in the
lifetime of any man born since 1882
Lord Roseberry stated that by the
letter of law the House of Lords was
competent to reject a finance bill. but

against unjust classification of mer-
chandise for transportation. 1t is PEI
fectly clear, he declares, that by in
Guiding articles in the same class,
which ought to pay different rates, q
railroad can commit exactly the same
kind of injustice as it would by i'm
posing an eXorbitant rate as to any
one class.
The President will recommend that
the power of the commission be ex-
tended to include not only fixing rates,
after com plant, but also re-adjustment
of classification if it proves on COM
plant to be unjust.
To give the commission power to in
stitute complaints of its own and not to
limit it to the consideration of complaints
made from the outside, is another or the
important changes in the law to which
the President and his advisors are de-
voting considerable attention. The Pres
ident believes that this authority must be
given to the commission to make its
work truly effective.
Mr.. Taft is not in favor of letting
down the bars entirely, however. and

fix rates in advance and on their own
initiative and without complaint filed and

statement of Clarence F. Glover that

day conducted their investigation of

The developments of the past "a
hours have followed each other In
quick succession. Last night Hattie
Leblanc, the French Canadian dOmes,

accused by Glover of having fired the
shots that caused his death, was ar
rested in the Glover home. where she
said, she had been concealed ever since
the shooting on Saturday night. Later
when questioned by the police the girl
stated that Glover, after assaulting
her had shot himself

Whatever Final Decision Letter and

New York, Nov. 24.-William Rookie
Teller, vice president as well as one
of the largest shareholders in the
Standard Oil Co., gave a different color
today to the appeal which Mortimer F.

had already announced is to be taken

wished to indicate that his own atti-
tude and that of his associates. though
vitality concerned for purely selfish
reasons, had also its share Of altrusism.
TT seems to me desirable" he said,
not only for my own interests, and
hose of my associates, but for the
public at large and for all other great
business ventures that the Sherman
act should be finally set beyond con-
tention as interpreted by the supreme
court of the United States Undoubt-
eddy our case will be appealed, and for
this reason.

cuss the decree of the circuit court.
but as Mr.. Elliott said that an appeal
would be taken and the matter is en-
tirely in the hands Of counsel Of the
company, in this connection I want to
say as a large stakeholder that. how

no unwillingness to comply fully not
only with the letter but the spirit Of
the law as 1t shall be settled by the

upon the identity of the third person
who, the police are convinced, played
prominent part in the case.
The suicide story, told by the pris-

the police, inasmuch as one of TIE
wounds was in the back, and could not
have been self-inhicted.

Said to Have Proved Fatal.

Cherry, Ills, Nov. 24.-After more
than $50 bodies had been discovered in
the st. Paul mine. today efforts to car
ry them to the surface were temper
|arily abandoned while an effort was
made to check a fire which again
threatened the main shaft. If the eff
forts to control the fire are not sue
cessful tomorrow, it is probable that
the mine will again be sealed to re-
main so for weeks.
| That no men survive is now gener-
ally conceded. The only part of the
mine as yet UNEMPLOYED and in which
living men possibly could be found is
the east working of the second vein,
at the entrance Of which the fire is
burning fiercely.
Cherry, ILL.,, Nov. 24-Practically al
of the bodies of those that persisted ir
the Cherry disaster were found this
morning on staircase at the mouth
of the third or lower level. One hum
dred and sixty-eight bodies were found
leaving about a score to be accounted

| The bodies were in a great tangled
mass, completely blocking the staircase
landing from the third to the second
vein and were scattered along the vein
where they had dropped before reach
ing the stairway.
Black damp was the cause Of death
all means of escape having been block
ed by debris falling and covering the
top Of the staircase.
Death evidently did not come tt
many for hours, if not days. Two rude
wooden ventilating fans, fashioned at.
ter the same manner as those found

were affixed to the shaft wall ant
