Classic Event.

Cincinnati, o.. May 26.-Olambala,
owned by ]. G. Greener, won the
classic Latonia Derby at mile and
. half by five lengths from Pat
Dunnes The Peer, while Is lengths
back came Plate Glass, the only other

the Derby was being run, yet the
damage had been done by that time
and the race was run over a sloppy
track.
Starter Hoffman had no trouble
sending the horses away to a good
start Plate Glass jumped to the
front Immediately and held the lead
until the stretch turn, when Olam-
bala, the favoTite. took command, fol-
lowed by The Peer, while Plate Glass
fell back beaten. Untouched by whip
or spur Olambala widened the gap
and came under the wire an easy
winner by five lengths. The Peer
easily took the place from Plate
Glass. Warfeld was scratched short
~ before the race on account of the
bad condition of the track. The net

Speech, Fears Maximum and Mini.
mum Provision In Measure.
WASHINGTON. May 26. The senate
began the formal consideration Of the
sugar schedule, but did not approach
vote upon it. Instead, the time al.
lotted to this schedule was entirely
given over to speechmaking and,
strange to say, the two speeches on
the subject, while made by Demo
Gratis, were in strong advocacy OF
high tariff on sugar of all grades.
The speeches were by Senators
Foster and McEnery of Louisiana.
Mr. Foster laughingly deprecated the
application of the word protection
to his attitude, but Mr.. McEnery
boldly espoused the protective theory
and openly advised his Democratic
friends to follow his example. He
declared protection to be in the line
OF Democratic policy. Mr.. McEnery
was cheered by the careful attention
of the leading Republican senators,
but his remarks received scant atten-
tion from his Democratic colleagues.
The lumber schedule was temporar-
lily put aside in order to permit the
committee on finance to make
changes in Il. Early in the session
Senator Beveridge addressed the SEN
ate at some length in support of his
contention that President Taft had,
previous to and after his nomination,
been consistent advocate of a down
ward revision of the tariff. He fol
lowed the maiden effort of his Demo
cratic colleague, Mr.. Shively who un
dertook to prove that If the tariff bill
now before the senate should become
a law the rates over which the sen
ate Is wranglng would not constitute
the tariff that would go into effect
but that under the maximum and min
imum provision the country would
find itself operating under the maxi
mum rate, which is 25 per cent high
er than the minimum.

REPUBLICANS PROTEST
Do MOT Want Democrats TO Get
Credit For Income Tax.

Credit For Income TAX
Washington, May 26.-Had II not
been for the attitude Of the Progress
siye Republicans" who favor the
adoption of an income tax amend
ment to the tariff bill, 1t Is probable
that Senator Bailey might have
reached an agreement with members
Of the finance committee for vote
on his amendment on June 10.
OHense was taken by some Of the
so-called insurgent Republicans be-
cause OF the notice served by the
Texas senator that no general agree
ments could be obtained on any
phase of the tariff bill as long as Sen
ator Aldrich refused permission for
the fixing of time for a vote on Sen
ator Bailey's income tax amendment.
It was made clear at informal con
ferences that the Republicans who
are supporting the Cummins amend
ment desire the continuance of the
coalition with the Democrats, but
that they did not want 1t at the ex
pense OF surrendering the control OF
the income tax fight to the Demo
Gratis.
Members of the finance committee
are confident they have sufficient
votes to refer either the Cummins oil
the Bailey amendment or both to the
judiciary committee.

Atlanta, Ca. May 20. = How less
than 100 striking Georgia railroad
firemen were able to stop practically
train service in a territory 10 miles
long and from 25 to 100 miles wide,
was the knotty problem into which
United States Commissioner Of Labor
Neill plunged immediately after his
arrival here. .,..,
AS emissary OF the national board
Of mediation he faced first the race
problem, the force behind the strike;
second, an announced wish Of many
persons in this section to have Geor-
gians settle this question by arbitra-
tion, and third, the necessity Of NOV
ing the United States mails immedi.
ately.
Within two hours after his arrival
Mr.. Neilf was in private conference
with General Manager Scott of the
Georgia railroad, with no intimatlon
as to when the negotiations might
bring results.

full of union firemen accomplished and
what power was behind them became
apparent when a considerable section
of this state was compelled to rely
on automobiles for passenger mail
and express service, and when the
transportation Of such necessities OF
life as food dropped back to the
methods of a former degree Of civil
ization, namely, TO wagons and even
pack animals.
The four score firemen alone did
not produce this situation. 1t was
the communities which the railroad
served that stopped every wheel of
the system during the past three
days; not the officials Of these COM
munities, but few men who are said
to have fighting blood in their veins
who came forward and announced
| that negro fremen should not be CIV
en- superiority over white firemen
From some hidden source of public
opinion these men have up to now
made good this racial ultimatum.
| Handcars, automobiles and interur
ban cars made little impression upon
the 1900 pounds of delayed mails in
the Atlanta postoffice. Here and there
in the strike district a rural postmas
ter shouldered sacks Of outgoing mai
and, after hours of hard work ridinl
and walking, managed to reach Var
unaffected railroad station.
Reports were current that the fed
eral courts might interfere and place
guards on train in order to get th'
mails through. No such action, how
ever, developed locally.
The strikers have announced tina
they are willing to fire engines Il
carry mails, but that such engine
must carry mails only and not pas
sengers.
At the conclusion of the conference
between Mr.. Neill and Mr.. Scott tn
former said there was no statemen
to be made. Mr.. Neill then went int

sentative OF the firemen. Through
