TO BE AN OPEN VOTE.
On the Lumber and Hides Items OF
Tariff BILL

Washington, April 2.-The ways
and means committee was in session
today as usual, considering committee
amendments to the bill and it is un-
derstood a definite announcement of
the results of its deliberations will be
made at an early date.
There is no doubt it has been deter
mined that there shall be an open
vote In the house on proposition to
take all the duty off lumber and also
on an amendment restoring hides to
the dutiable list and the prevailing
opinion is that both changes will be
made
There is now more interest in the
provision fixing a countervailing duty
on petroleum than any other and the
canvassers are having more trouble in
getting an agreement to vote for the
bill because of this provision than be-
cause of any other.
There has been from the start a
determined effort to have the commit
tee either strike out the item or per-
nit an open vote upon it, but SO far
no decision has been reached one way
or the other
While for time today it seemed
definitely decided that the final vote
would be ordered for the 7th instant
later in the day there was division Of
opinion on that point. and some were
inclined to think the bill would not
be put on its passage until the ninth
or tenth. The best indications were.
however, for the seventh.

Kansas City. Mo-, April 2.-Plans
have. it is stated. been perfected for
improving the Union Pacific connec-
tions with ST. Joseph and Kansas City
and invading the territory in Nebraska

Union Pacific a much shorter and more
direct line to st. Joseph, and shorten
the distance between Kansas City and
the Pacific coast 80 miles. These i'm
provements include the completion of
the Menoken- Marysville cutoff project
ed two years ago; the building of a
proposed new cutoff between Hastings,
Neb., On the st. Joseph & Grand Island
and Kearney on the Union Pacific s

DON'T WANT TO BE A CITY.
People Living West OF Topeka Object
to Being Incorporated.

About two weeks ago, the board of
county commissioners received a re-
quest from certain property owners in
the district just west of the city, to
have the district entered as a city of
the third class. Today, another petit
ton IS in the hands of the commits
sioners, and this one is against any
such move.
The district in question adjoins the
city, and is bounded as follows: Jewell
street on the east, Seventeenth street
on the south, McVicar avenue on the
west and Oakley avenue on the north.
Those who want to make a town out
OF this district desire to be in
corporated under the name of Euclid
Park
s. s. Ferguson, property owner
in that district hastily headed a posse
of antfs, and started after the would
be incorporators. He cites that the
district is not worth it, and has no
business being a town. as II contains
no business interests except two small
grocery stores. over a hundred
names are on the petition. The
county commissioners are not sure
what they will do about 1t, but be-
1ieve they will let the property own
ers fight 1t out among themselves.

BARNES IN, CHICAGO.
Kansas Insurance Official Explains
New State Law at a Conference.

Chicago, April 2.-Insurance Com
missioner Barnes Of Kansas being in
the city the fire insurance managers
took advantage of his presence to have
a conference with him on the new
anti-discrimination and rate-regula-
ton law which is to go into effect in
JEne.
The law has been regarded by some
as almost revolutionary, since it gives
the insurance commissioner a measure
of control over rates, and there has
been considerable anxiety as to the
spirit in which it would be admins
tered.
Commissioner Barnes allayed this
entirely by his statement so far as he
is concerned, and the chief criticism
left to those who oppose the measure
is that 1t would be a source of great
danger in the hands of an unworthy
official.
Mr.. Barnes outlined the condition of
public sentiment and the trend of leg
islation which led to the bill and point
ed out, while it protected the public
from extortfonate rates the companies
gained great advantage in that their
schedules were legalized and rebating
and rate cutting forbidden by the an
ti-diScrimination feature. He dwelt on
the point that this was the first insur-
ance statute which gave the compan-
les the right of appeal to the courts
from the ruling of the department
He declared that he would enforce the
law in absolute fairness to the public
and the companies, recognizing the
fact that the companies must get ade-
quate rates in order to furnish sound
protection.
On the question as to whether the
filing of similar schedules by a num-
Der of companies would be regarded
as evidence of an Illegal combination,
he said that as soon as schedule was
filed by a company it became the
state rate, legaIized by it, and it was
entirely proper for as many companies
as chose to file this official rate.

accept the appointment as a regent
of the state agricultural college at Man
