Washington, May 1S-"Just put one
Of these malefactors of great wealth in

antitrust law enforced without any
further violations" said Senator Bailey
of Texas. during his tariff speech in the
senate today.
He referred to the United States Steel

| the antitrust laws. He insisted that if
the authorities use the right methods
the corporation will be dissolved. add
ing that if the present administration

other officials to represent them.

You cannot do it with fines. because
when the court fines a trust. the trust
fines the people, and as long as the pun

law. Men take the chance Of pecuniary
I loss in the hope of realizing a greater
I pecuniary gain. Send one of them to
the penitentiary and it will work like

philippine Tariff Bill.

Washington. May 13.-In the house
today Chairman Payne called up ths
Philippine bill.
Mr.. Payne explained that the mos
important reason for the legislation
was that the insular government un-
der the general tariff bill would be de
prived of about 81 100000 in revenue
because Of the free trade relations pro
posed between the United States anC
the Philippines. Replying to Mr. Roo
insOn Of Arkansas, Mr.. Payne declared
he could not even pTOphesy when tbs
Filipinos would be given self-govern-
meRt.
Mr.. Robinson criticised what he
termed the indefinite policy OF the gov
eminent toward the Filipinos and
claimed the Filipinos were fully ca
pable Of government.

Mr.. Harrison Of New York said that

On the Speakers Table.

Washington. May 13.-Mr. Olmstej
of Pennsylvania, in the house today
offered a bill amendatoTy to the act
creating a civil government in Porto
Rico. II provides that 'if at the ter
mination of any session of the leSisla-
ture the appropriations necessary for
the support of the government shall
not have been made an amount equal
to the sums appropriated in the last
appropriation bills for sush purposes
shall be deemed to be appropriated"
The bill also authorized the president
to designate one Of the executive de-
paTtments of the national government
to take charge of Porto RicO's affairs.
Mr. Clark Of Missouri at once object
ed to immediate consideration on the
ground that the presidents message
had not as yet been referred to COM
mittee.
A statement by Mr.. Olmsted that
the bill was identical in terms TO the
laws pertaining to the Philippines and
Hawaii and that the matter was one
of great urgency did not affect Mr..
Clark, who insisted upon the objection.
In consequence the bill lies on the
speakers table.

MAN will say tomorrow.

of the Tacoma & Eastern by the Chi

NEW LAW SUCCESSFUL.
lSpeciaI to The HeraldO

Washington, May 13.-Secretary Bal
linger of the interior department said
today that reports from land Offices
throughout the west show that agricul-
tural entrymen are taking advantage
of the new law permitting them TO &C
duire surface rights Of lands, leaving
the coal which may underlie the sur
face for the government. This action
obviates a hearing before local land
officers or investigation to determine
the character of the lands, and the in
terror department officials are highly
pleased with the success which is at
lending the operation of tie law.

ONE NEW IDEA.
Removal of Tonsils to Check Ineipi
ent tuberculosis Advocated.

Chicago, May 13.-Wholesale cutting
out of tOnsils from the threats of every
one subject to tuberculosis is advocated
by physicians attending the fifty-fourth
annual convention of the Illinois Home
opathic Medical association.
TOnsils clearly had no friends among
the assembled physicians. One described
them as things good for breeding mi
crObes. Another declared that no use
for them has ever been found. and the
agreement was general that their re-
movai checked incipient tuberculosis.
Twelve per cent of the children ex-
amined recently" said DR.. Richard II.
Street, were found infected with in
cipient tuberculosis When the tOnsils
of these children were removed there
was complete recovery"
DIR. Burton Hazetline. secretary Of
the association, expressed his approval
of this Indictment Of tonsils DR.. Ha-
zetline added that medical men have
been unable to find q reason for the ex-
istence of. tonsile, and have decided that
they are ''vestigal organ. like the ap-

INNOCENT AS
BABE UNBORN
ThOrnweII MuIIaIy, Alleged San
Francisco Briber, on the
Witness Stand.

San Francisco. May 13.-Thornwell
Mullaly. assistant to the president of
the United Railroads, himself under
indictment for alleged offenses similar
to that charged against his chief. was
the most important witness examined
during the trial of Patrick Calhoun.
president of the road, today. Mr.. Null
laly has never before appeared on the
stand in any of the bribery graft
cases. and has never been summoned
TO give testimony since his refusal to
answer any questions put to him be
fore the grand jury in 1907, when the
first steps in the investigation were
taken. He occupied the stand almost
the entire day and his evidence went
into many matters related to the troll
ley franchises on which the present
case hinges.
Denied knowledge of Brides.
From first to last Mr.. MuIlaly denied
any knowledge Of the offering Of any
brides 20 the supervisors or the en-
plOyment of Abraham Ruef as an
agent to so offer brides, as is charged
by the prosecution. His evidence for
the most part related TO the time of
the fire and struggle to rehabilitate the
transportation lines Of the city and,
many interesting phases of that time
we're brought out. The most import
ant part of his examination from the
standpoint of the prosecution was his
admission that he had no knowledge
either as a director or officer OF the
conpany. of the withdrawal of 100000
from the mint by TREY L. Ford, gen.
ersI counsel of the road in 1906. nor Of
the negotiation Of a loan for that
amount by Mr.. Calhoun. all of which
the prosecution claims TO have proved
in its effort to show that this money
was used to bride the supervisors.
