WOMAN IN PLOT
TO WRECK TRAIN
STICK OF DYNAMITE FOUND IN
WASH ROOM
Believed That Persons Were Inter-
rupted Before They Had Time
to Attach and :enlte
Fuse
(By Associated Press.)

SAN BERNARDINO, June 9.-The
entire Santa Fe detective force has been
placed on a mysterious case believed to
have been an attempt to wreck the To-
cal passenger train arriving at this city
at 6:45 o'clock Tuesday night A brake
man, looking for soiled towel with
which to dust his shoes, discovered on
the floor of the womens dressing room
a 12-inch stick of dynamite and eight
caps. The dynamite was standing ON
end.
The explosive was undoubtedly placed
in the toilet room during the trip, as
cars are thoroughly cleaned at the end
of each run.
Railroad men believe that the party
was interrupted and left the train be-
fore they had an opportunity to attach
the fuse and ignite it.
The party undoubtedly planned on
timing the fuse so there would be am
Pile time to leave the train at some sta
ton, after which, when the train was
running at full speed, the charge would
be exploded.
1t is said that had the dynamite ex-
ploded while the train was running at
a high rate of speed there would have
been large loss of life Aot only on the
car containing the charge but on the
entire train.
Detectives are inclined to believe that
a woman is implicated, as a man would
have been observed entering or leaving
the womens lavatory. Officials and de-
tectives are mystified No arrests were
made, as there is no clew to the guilty
persons.

TO HELP HUMANITY
MRS. RUSSELL SAGE PROVES
PHILANTHR0PIST
Widow of Noted Financier Gives Away
Fortune Nearly Seven Times
Faster Than He
Made 1t

NEW YORK, June 9.-In less than
three years Mrs. Russell Sage has spent
more than $25,O00,000 for public pur-
poses and the benefit of mankind.
The recent investigation abroad of
the question of workingmen's insur-
ance, and the establishment of a gi-
gantic employment bureau. call atten-
ton anew to her prolific bounty.
It took Russell Sage fifty years to get
$65, ,00O,00 This great sum amounted
to $500 a day for the lifetime of the
financier.
Mrs. Sage is now giving away the for
tune at the rate of $4,000 day. If the
widow continues her charities at the
pace she has set, all will be gone In
five years.
Comparison of the financier's power
to make money with Mrs. Sages fac
ulty of giving it away shows that the
widow is giving away 81 in the same
time that it took Mr.. Sage to accumu-
late the proverbial "30 cents"

SENATOR DOLLlvER DECLARES
MONOPOLY EXISTS
Warren, LaFoIIette and Smoot Indulge
in Interesting Controversy, and
Acrid CoIloquy Marks
Debate
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, June 9.-The woolen
schedule was still under consideration
in the senate today when the usual re-
cess for dinner was taken.
The committee amendment increasing
the house rate on wool top waste and
other wastes from 20 cents a pound to
80 cents a pound was adopted by vote
of 40 to 30.
This was a finance committee change.
and the committee scored its usuai
majority on this measure.
Speeches were made during the DAY
by Senators Warren and LaFollette.
the former advocating a generally IN
creased duty, while the latter contended
for a general reduction.
The two senators engaged in a sharp
controversy during which Mr.. LaFol-
lette said that he expected further re-
cruits to his belief from the eastern
senator's.
Probably the most interesting devel-
opment of the day was declaration
by Senator Dolliver that rag trust
existed. The Iowa senator was con-
tradicted by Mr.. Warren.
Discussing the amendment increasing
the house rates on woolen rags, mungo
and hocks from cents to 10 cents a
pound, Messrs. Warren and Smoot in
sisted that the lower rate would dis
place pure woods with Shoddy IN tne
making of American woolen cloth for
clothing.
Mr.. Dolliver said he wanted the duty
high enough to keep rags out, but not
high enough to permit the organization
of rag trust.
Agree to Amendment
The amendments were agreed to.
A substitute by Mr.. Dolliver levying
a duty on wool advanced from the
secured state, and known as tops, at
80 cents a pound when valued at not
more than 40 cents a pound, and 35
cents when valued at more than 40
cents a pound, together with an addi-
tional ad valorem duty of 20 per cent,
in place of a duty equal to that i'm
posed upon manufactures of wool, was
defeated, AZ to 20.
Mr.. Dolliver also offered substitute
for section 373, providing for duty of
271b cents a pound on yarns valued at
not more than 40 cents and SS1s cents
a mound on yarns valued at more than
40 cents, together with an ad valorem
duty of 35 per cent.
Discussing this substitute Senator
IaFollette read kilograms appealing
to him to support the committe substl-
tute on woolens as of interest to WOOL
en- growers. He said these kilograms
were signed by owners of small wooden
mills and all of them read alike.
