While members of the house of commons were drawing the atten- ;ion of the government to the fact that Germany has built or is building, a dozen dirigible airsips. and urging the government to take up with energy the construction of 2 British fleet, there was being held today a meeting at the Mansion House under the chair manship of the lord mayor. in support of the same object.
 Among those present were Admiral Charles Beresford, Prince Louis of Battenberg, Lord Curzon, Sir Hiram Maxim and Admiral Sir Percy Scott, all of whom heartily supported ener- getic action Admiral Scott advocated a two power standard in airships as well as in Dreadnoughts, and men tioned incidentally that the navy has designed a new gun which at a dis tance of 5000 feet could be exceed ingly destructive to warships.

'TUNEFUL "BURGOMAsTER"
 ENJOYED HERE AGAIN
Pixley and Luder's Musical Comedy at the Elks' Last Night.

With the Kangaroo girls. the Tough girls, the Subway SOubrettes and the College boys. Pixley and Luder's Bur gomaster came back to Phoenix and was royalty welcomed.
 The Burgomaster is one of those old favorites that sticks in some shady nook of your brain like Wang and ''Er- mine" It Is a musical comedy of the rare sort-one that you can see and hear over again without becoming tired of it.
 The songs in The Burgomaster are the kind the small boy soon learns to whistle as he leaves the theater Some of them are very catchy indeed, such as T Wish I Had a Girl" as sung by Euphemie Lockhar,t and Dear Old College Days" by the double quartette, and The Tale of the Kangaroo"
 While there aren't any reai"stars" in The Burgomaster. the entire cast Is made up of first-class musical com edy material. Harry Hermsen plays Peter Stuyvesant and can't help being funny Fred Bailey as E. Booth Talk ington is inimitable and one of the best in the cast Leo Kendall and Robert Albright are each classy in their way.
 Almost every seat in the Elks' the ater was taken and the audience was an appreciative one. calling for many encores.

Ransdell of Texas and other democrats. He declared that having been instructed by the legis- lature of his state and his constituents as to the stand he should take or the articles mentioned. he would not viO- late his obligation. His whole atti- tude was one of defiance. Before the rule was reported there were numer- ous speeches on the bill.

MR. TAFT QUOTED
 IN STANDARD CASE
In an Argument for the Dissolution of the New Jersey Concern.

St. Louis. Mo. April 5.-For the first time in American courts a president of the United States was quoted as a le- gal authority. today during Special United States Attorney Kellogg's ar gument in the governments case to dissolve the Standard oil Company of New Jersey as a violator of the Sher- man antitrust act. MT. Kellogg read at length from d decision rendered in the Addyston Pipe case by President Taft when a judge in Cincinnati, the issue involved being an alleged re- straint of trade
 MT Kellogg win conclude his re- marks at noon tomorrow. As one of the four judges of the federal circuit court hearing the case will leave St. Louis on Saturday. Mir. Kellogg will insist upon the defense completing its argument by Friday evening. This would leave John G. Milburn of New York, Merits Rosenthal of Chicago. John G. Johnson of Philadelphia and David G. Watson of Pittsburg but two and a half hours each. This the de- fense will bitterly oppose.
 Mir Kellogg told of the wonderful profits Of the Standard. For ten years, ending 1906, the concern had earned the comfortable sum of $95S.226.525 upon a capitalization of s97 7.250. 900. Standard Trust and the Standard Oil company had paid dividends of s54S.- 426.444 between 1882 and 1906. And yet" exclaimed Mir. Kellogg. Rock efeller while on the witness stand talked of the hazard of the business" That the defendants profits had aver aged cents gallon for ten years was and other of MT. Kelloggs assertions.
 "The only place where oil is cheap is where the independents sell it." ob- served Mir Kellogg. "and if this court gives the Standard oil company carte blanche to do as it pleases there would not be an independent company in this country in two years"
 The state line terminals between New York, Pennsylvania and New ter sey. Mir. Kellogg insisted. had been so arranged that a common carrier by independent shippers was impossible. One pipe line was cited which cost, ac- cording to the Standard oil company's books s4,000 to construct, and it was earning an annual dividend of S1,250.- 900.

Strictly speaking, the police are

have been reaping a harvest from

gathering in still larger numbers.
They have flocked in from Occur
d'Alene and Missoula, where they
operated during the registration
for Indian lands, and are getting
in their work in all parts of the
city.
Il want to warn especially these
people who have come here to the

lookout for pickpockets while in
line of parade, and as a protection
to the homes during the irrigation
congress it is good plan never to
leave the house alone" said Chief

well that in 1890 the Pittsburg
Brotherhood club grabbed him.
1t was in 1888 that A. G. Spalding
conceived the idea of taking a club
around the world, and Tener was
one of the first men he selected for
the trip.
With the close of the war be-
tween the National and the Broth
erhood, Tener gave up base ball
and signed up as president OF a
bank at Charleroi, Pa, at which he
has worked steadily, save when
saving the country.
A few years back Tener was
elected grand exalted ruler of the
Elks. Perhaps it was the fact that
he breezed home in this election
that induced him to take fail out
of the congressional thing. Being
republican in Pennsylvania, the
answer is easy. Just now Tener
sees his name in print semi-occa-
sionally as gubernatorial candidate
but insists someone is trifling with
his affections.
It's a good thing for the coun
trys interests that Washington is
tail ender in the American
league, for if the team was con
tender Tener admits he would &c

attends every session at Forbes
field, Pittsburg, when at home; but
that's after banking hours.
