FUTURES DENOUNCED.
Senator Davis, Of Arkansas, Delivers
Passionate Speech.

Washington, January 26.-The
evils attending gambling in the pro-
ducts Of the soil by the sale of fu-
lures on the exchanges was the sub
ject of a passionate speech, delivered
by Senator Jeff Davis in the United
States senate today. Mr.. Davis ad-
vocated the passage of bill intro
duced by him to penalize the use Of
the mails, and telegraph or the tele-
phone for the purpose of conveying
gambling propositions between buyer
and seller.
Mr.. Davis had not proceeded for
more than a few minutes when even
this small attendance was reduced to
seventeen senators, only six of whom
were Republicans. The attendance
in the galleries was also small.
Speaking Of the publication Of
news concerning the exchanges, in
which cotton is sold for future deiiv-
cry, Mr.. Davis said:
"Almost every newspaper Of the
country keeps an editor, reporter, or
correspondent at headquarters in
Wall street ostensibly to keep the
people Informed as to the news, but
really, under the pay Of corporations,
to gloss over the knaverv Of exchange
transactions and to write stilted re-
Jews Of exchange dishonesty and
fraud.'
After advocating the passage Of
this measure Mr.. Davis denounced
what he declared to be evils Of the
"monev power.' and incidentally
touched upon the policy Of maintain
ing "a protective tariff as part Of a
system, which he declared was for the
suppression Of the rights Of the peo-
pie.
Picturing conditions in Rome at
the time of julius Caesar. he describ-
ed the death Of Caesar as the price Of
Caesars love and service for the
poor. declaring:
"Would to God we had a Caesar
in the White House today"
At the conclusion Of his narrative
Of the acts Of the Roman Emperor in
securing laws to suppress usury. and
in obtaining legislation for the bene-
fit of the poor Of Rome, followed by
his tragic death. when "surrounded
fby the treachery Of the money power,
twenty-tl4ree knife wounds pierced
| his body" Senator Davis said:

We also saw avalanches. and tracks left by many, the deposits of stones and de- bris. The peasants cottages are right near these dangerous places. We took carriage at Chamoupix and drove as near as we could to the Mer de Glace-a glacier on which it is safe to walk. It is four and one-half miles long, and from one-half to one and one-half miles wide, and the mama we'll describes it. the Mer de Glace, or sea of glass. It goes far down into the valley. We could see the deep crevasses in these glaciers.

This is one Sunday we will hear no services, the En- glish churches have not opened fo, the summer yet.-we are spend,ns the day very quietly.
 The weather was quite uncertain at Geneva, We longed for the blue and and sunny skies of Italy We took several pretty excursions on the Lake While waiting for our very favorable day to go to Chamounix. Went out to Ferney-Voltaire, the home of Vol talre; this chateau and grounds are we'll preserved. He founded Fernev it is in France. The custom hons, officers got on the car and wanted to see if We had any dutiable goods; we did not understand, showed him our tickets and got an answer in voIuble French; finally, after a great effort we all understood that nothing was to be done on either side
 One morning We went to the iunc- tion of the Arve and Rhone rivers The meeting is spectacle. the Rhone flows out of Lake Geneva, perfectly blue. and so placid. The Arve rises i'll the mountains. flows along by Chamounix. collects the debris that comes from the mountain side with the glaciers and avalanches, is a Sreyish color. and very turbulent. These rivers meet and flow several murdered yards side by side without mixing. the blue and grey quits dis tinct. But is needless to say the Arve overcomes the blue of tht Rhone. There is lesson in the sight of it.
 Thursday we had fine day, sand took our long anticipated trip to ChamouniX. We crossed the Arye about six times, and ran along it's fertile valley for some time. It took four hours and a half to go forty-two miles, and we had to change twice. The last was by electric car. we went up, up, up. into the mountains-got grand views of Mount Blanc and the

The mountains were all covered with snow, the lakes so blne the scenery on shore very attractive We passed Chateau of Madame ,]e Stael; she and her father Monsieur Necker are buried there. We also passed the home of Louis Bonaparte that is he lived there many years.
 We went first from one side of the lake to the other, first in France then Tn switzerland. At Montreaux we took an electric car through the scenic route of Switzerland. This runs through the Bernese Oberland. Switzerland is divided into twenty two cantons, which correspond to our states. Done of these is the Bernese state, great part of which is called
 the Bernese Oberland. give this trip the palm over everything have seen, though it has been hard to de- eide that it was finer than the Amalfi drive, but it was grand.
 We rose up. up from the shores of the lake, wound round and round the mountains every few minutes getting new and more beautiful views of the water and mountains It had been de- llghtfully warm but had turned cooler and there was fresh snow on all the mountains. It reminded me of Christ mas. and also of a drive through Yellowstone Park. We went through every variety of weather, stormy where we were. sun on the mountain tops. making the snow glisten. the eversreens all powdered with fresh
 flakes. When we ascended higher we rode through a brisk snow storm, and the sun was shining in the val ley. Then we passed into beautiful weather everywhere, the mountains to the front were green as could be. no snow, and just behind the moun- tains, all snow. Right around us would be green grass, fields of spring flowers, principally different shades
 of yellow, wild daffodils, crocuses and smaller yellow flower didn't know. There would be rows of fruit trees in full bloom also, scattered
