ROGERS LAST PUZZLE.

Coincident with the death of Henry
IT. Rogers is the. publication, in the
current number of Van Norden, of an
article which shows the quiet force
of the man and the secretiveness
which made him puzzle even to his
intimates-if he had any-in business.
This article deals with the Virginia
railway, which Mr.. Rogers built. Wall
street has named this road Rogers
hobby and cannot understand man
in these days building railroad sole
ly for transportation purposes with
out a single subsidiary land company,
coal company, connecting link trunk
line combination, or holding company,
in the distance. Therefore, there is
something the matters with it. True,
high and large, Henry II. Rogers had
shown himself a fairly capable citizen
in certain lines, but, then to spend
$42,00O,000 out of his own pocket and
not call in Hartman, Hill, the Goulds
or any other railroad over lords-well,
that was going too far.
Now, what Mr.. Rogers did was to
build 442 miles of road from Deep
Water, a small mining town in West
Virginia that bellies it's name, to legiti-
mate deep water on the Atlantic coast
at Norfolk. This road goes from
where six feet is deep water at the
head of navigation of the kanawah
river to where thirty feet at low tide
is as shallow as comfort will permit
The engineers claim that this road
may revolutionize the methods and
principles of railway building in this
country. incidentally, the line opens
up no less than 100000 acres of coal
fields and unknown tracts of fine tim
her land.

PARIS STRIKERS CLASH
WITH THE GENDARMES

Paris, May 20.-There was an en-
counter on the streets of Paris today
between body of workmen and a de-
tachment of police. Five policemen
We're wounded in the struggle, in
which the workmen were having the
upper hand until a detachment of
cuirassiers galloped up, clearing up
the streets and making many arrests.
The trouble began when a body of
diggers, after having attended a meet
ing of building trades that had voted
to continue the general strike until the
postmen obtained satisfaction, started
to march down the street singing the
"Internationale" and crying Down
with Clemenceau."
The unionist BARRIERS today voted to
go on strike.

Special to The Daily Muscular.

Special to The Daily Missoulian.
Butte, May 20.--Captain Buckner
and Detective Bates have been sus-
pended by Mayor Nevin pending an
investigation Of charges preferred
against them. Thomas Norton has
been installed as captain and Derry j..
Murphy as city detective until the re-
suit of the investigation is known
Buckner is charged with soliciting
money from members Of the force UNI
der him, while Bates is accused of il
legally ordering the release of John
Dubois, a man sentenced to serve 80
days in the city Jail on a charge of
being secretary" 1t is alleged that
after Dubois was committed to Jail
Bates instructed the night iailer to let
him go The order was obeyed and
the prisoner set at liberty. When the
city authorities failed to take any ac7
ton in the matter, the board Of police
commissioners decided upon a general
investigation. Bates admitted before
this body that he ordered Dubois re-
lease, but pleaded that his order was
based upon an understanding with the
assistant city attorney, and that the
man was to leave the city. That any
such understanding was had, both the
assistant city attorney and the judge
denied. The commission decided that
Bates had Illegally released the pris-
oner and asked that Mayor Corby
have Chief Wynne prefer charges
against him. But the mayor declined
to do this.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Aug. odd
Tariff is coming down the home stretch
this week. There are a great dust and
also a tremendous connection on the
national course. The big leaders who
are plotting the way are little be
draggled They would not want to 60
once again around the course.
The progressives have been trying 10
knock Old Tariff Revision out Of the
running. They are humping and beat
ing and shouting with grim determine
ton. The Democrats have joined in
with them. for they think it fine
game now that they have gotten few
items safe for their own constituents.
And a few standpatters are sprinkled
in the hostile throng, hanging on the
TANKS of Old Tariff. Washington al
ways likes anything that savors of a
spirited contest and therefore Wash
ington IS more or less hilarious at such
d fnish.
Of course the Senate IS going to
accept the conference report very soon.
There has been no serious doubt about
It, although the close vote IN the House
the other Saturday night, when the bill
was saved from recommittal by q
margin Of only Ave has given the Re
publican leaders the shivers. But the
Republicans are SO well disciplined,
that they viii take care Of the situa-
ton IN spite OF the rebelIious Western
Republicans and before the end of the
week It IS fully expected that the bill
viii become law.
The President has taken hold right
actively 10 queIl the Western rebellion
There IS no question as TO where ne
stands. He wants the tariff bin en-
acted into law. because on the whole
he regards II as good bill. not al
together as good a bill as he would like
to have but he knows that tariff IS
necessarily a matter Of compromise. He
has been given many concessions which
he regards as making It revision
downward. He thinks the people Will
be satisfied when they understand the

leans had only five votes to spare.
If the Democrats who were absent and
impaired had been in their seats they
could have defeated tariff legislation
temporarily. So the joke is upon Rep
resentative Gillett, Of Springfield,
Mass. He is slender nervous man,
very much interested IN the bill be-
cause Massachusetts fares so well IN
der IFS provisions. He has not been
very well but he arose from a sick
bed few days ago to go to the Senate
office building and help strengthen a
few backbones on Massae husetts
item
Mr.. Giliett became very weary at the
prolonged House proceedings and
thought he would 60 away to the COM
mittee room for a while and read a
novel IN which he had become much
interested. The bells ring when vote
is taken. The bells did ring when
the roll was called on the motion to
recommit but Mr.. Gillett was right in
the thick of the plot and he did not
hear. His colleagues are having 2
world of fun with him and it viii be

because a majority of five IS as good
as a majority of fifty.
It is many years since a party I'M
dertoob to revise a tariff that It and
not the opposing party had framed.
Therefore it is that the Republicans
have been meeting with some trouble.
All in all it is surprising that they have
done as well as they have. They had
TO tear down parts Of building they
had constructed themselves. II the
Democrats had constructed the build
ing. there would have been better
argument at hand for defending the
action. But every Republican liked
the Dingley law in some particular and
when his favorite feature of II was
eliminated or modified there was an
outerv.
When the Wilson law was enacted
it, as a Democratic measure, TOOK the
place of the Mckinley law. Repuo-
lean measure When the Dingley law,
a Republican measure, was enacted 1t
took the place Of a Democratic meas
ure. Then the new tariff law has been
enacted in midsummer. when there Is
little else of interest TO the readers
OF newspapers. therefore Ing bd"AAN
attention has been much eentered upon
the tariff. The thousand and one peo-
pie. who are ever ready to voice Their
complaints. have come to the front.
They did that less when the DIngley
was framed but because the country
was in the midst Of industrial dapres-
sion and the demand for a tariff To
bring about a revival Of business was
very general. They cried ont against
the Mckinley law. which experts say
was a very excellent tariff measure,
and because there was no time TO make
a thorough explanation Of It's provi-
sfons before an election came on, the
Republicans were defeated and the law
had TO be repealed
