Coach Vail held a novice track meet
at Earlham College this morning which
was in the nature of tryout for the
Dash, three hundred yard run, mile
Sun, half mile. and two miles. Some
very promising material was discover
ed and 1t is likely that few of the
winners will be seen on the varsity.
when 1t matches it's strength against
DePauw in the dual meet with that col
1ege, and one Of two will undoubtedly
get into the I. G. A. L., which will be
held on Reid Field the fifteenth of
May. c. Jones and Frances ran a
dead heat in the fifty, but Jones did
not wear spikes. He apparently will
make a good understudy for Conrad,
the best Splinter in the state. San
doris appeared strong in the three hun
bred and half mile, while J. Jones, D.
"A. Hayworth and Jenkins ran pretty
race in the mile J. Jones winning out
In five minutes and thirteen seconds.
Clevenger, the long distance runner,
formerly student at Purdue, lost the
two mile to Regan, a former Vermii-
lion Grove, ILL.,, star.
Conrad Not in Form.
Conrad is now getting into condi-
tion. after a forced retirement from an
injury received In basket ball. however,
he may not be able to compete in the
indoor meet at Indianapolis next Fri
day. II Conrad was in condition the
Quakers would stand a good show to
win the meet as the points will be
well scattered with more than fifteen
organizations competing, including In
diana, Wabash, Notre Dame, Purdue.
Rose Polly, Franklin, Butler and the
military companies OF Indiana. White
Nancy Winslow and Prof. Grave can
win points in almost any meet. and II
Conrad were in the meet to pull off a
couple of firsts. it would look like a
victory for Earlham. With him out
they will have to be content to be run
ners up. Indiana will stand cool
show at the meet, as will Notre Dame.

DISCUSSES TIlLMANS VIEWS
BONAPARTE QUOTES HIM IN SU-
PREME COURT BRIEF.
Considers Senator's Opinion on the
Commodities Clause" Merely
That of an Individual.

BY a peculiar coincidence Attorney
General Bonaparte is called upon to
discuss Senator Tillman of South Caro-
lima at some length in a brief filed bv
him i'm the Supreme Court of the Cnitei
States. The brief relates to the COM
modities clause cases and deals espe-
cially with the question as to whether
the law prohibiting interstate railroads
from transporting commodities owned
and produced by themselves includes
the ownership of the stock of companies
owning or producing such commodities.
The Attorney General undertakes to
show that stock ownership is included
in the prohibition. He relates some
of the proceedings in the Senate when
the commodities clause was under
considerations and recites the fact that
Senator Tillman was the only senator
who introduced Il substitute for the
clause specifically providing against
stock ownership. He admits that the
substitute was voted down, by prac.
tically two1thirds majority, but con-
tends that such a result should not De
construed as indicating a desire by the
Senate not to prohibit such ownership.
He calls attention to the fact that there
was practically no debate on this point.
and says that the rejection of the Till
man provision under these circum-
stances should not be held to Imply
that the Senate did not consider the
broad language Of the provision AZ
adopted sufficient to include stock own
ership by a railroad.
Reference is made to the view en-
pressed by Mr.. Tillman that without his
amendment the whole provision might
as well be stricken out.
After all" says Mr.. Bonaparte. his
view was only that of an individual
member of the Senate expressed in de-
bate. which of course cannot be held
as controlling the meaning of the en-
actment or even throwing any light on
it for the purpose Of judicial In.

WORKMEN TO Be INTERESTED

ST. PETERSBURG, January o7.-Re-
ports have been received here OF the
doing of the congress of social demo-
cratic party recently held abroad TO
avoid interference from the police Tho
most important decision was to aban-
don. for the present, the propaganda
among the troops of the empire. There
seems TO be no hope of reviving tic
revolutionary movement for several
years, and the propaganda merely eX-
cited to isolated minor mutinies and
injured the prestige of the party. The
party will not devote its attentions en-
tirely to Russian workmen.
There was manifested great disatis-
faction with the socialist members of
the duma, but Il resolution directing
them to resign was defeated. Only the

Funding Company, whose affairs are in
the hands of receivers. was arrested at
his home here late yesterday on the ground
that he was a fugitive from justice and
that he was wanted in Pittsburg. where
charges of grand larceny had been lodged
against him.
Kieran was taken to police headquarters.
He had been locked up only d few hours
when word came from Superintendent of
Police McQuade of Pittsburg stating that
kieran had given bonds there and re-
questing that he be released
This was done. AS kieran left head
quarters he was served with all order to
appear in the supreme court on January
30 to be examined regarding the affairs
of the Fidelity Funding Company.
kieran had nothing to say following his
arrest. w. 3. Arundel who claims to be
his confidential adviser, had this to say
in kieran's behalf:
Mr.. kieran has been holding himself
In allegiance at the suggestion of u. II.
Sill. president of the Fidelity Funding
Company. and Mr. Sill's attorney. Those
two cases in Pittsburg are made on in
formation received by the detectives that
the Sisters Of the Good Shepherd gave.
Mr.. Kieran wanted to go to Pittsburg
the day he knew of the warrant. Mr..
Sill refused to allow him to go there.
Bail has been given for the two cases in
Pittsburg.
But on December s the New York
police received telegram requesting Mr..
Kieran's arrest The telegram was sent
before Mr.. kieran gave bail fer the two
cases.
"A few of the creditors are trying to
put Mr. kieran into bankruptcy He
doesn't want to go into bankruptcy and
he will pay all obligations that there are
outstanding-that is. his personal oblga-
tons.
He never disappeared. He did not
know that there was "a warrant out for
him until he read it in d paper in Phla
delphia.'

FOUND DONNELLY O. K.
New Yorker Confirmed as Public
Printer bY the Senate

Samuel b. Donnelly of New York will
continue as public printer. His nominal
ton was confirmed late yesterday after
noon by the Senate.
Mr.. Donnelly's name was sent to the
Senate early last month. but il was held
up by the two New York senator's on the
ground that the President had not con-
suited them in making the selection
They withdrew their objection later. and
then Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island and
others held the nomination up on the
ground that the committee printing
should make more careful investigation
into Mr.. Donnelly's qualifications to hold
down the job.
This in line with the new policy of
the Senate. which Is not to take the word
of senators from whose state the ap-
pointee halls basis for confirmation,
but to investigate each important nomi-
nation on its own hook. through the
agency of the proper committee.
The committee on printing found Mr..
Donnelly able to do the work of public
printer and also that there was no basis
for charges that he had discharged nom
union men without due cause.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. January 21.-Moses Shire,
attorney for Patrick j. kieran, former
president of the Fidelity Funding Com
pany, arrested yesterday and released
after d few hours detention at police
headquarters. came down from Buffalo
promptly this morning. as promised
by kieran's associate. w. +. Arundel, to
look out for his clients interests in this
later development.
When seen at the Devonshire apart
ments. where kieran is stopping. early
today Mr.. Shire was much worked up
over the action OF the police. He said
there was not the slightest Justification.
Il consider the proceedings yesterday
AN outrage. Mr.. Shire said. There must
have been something more than appeared
on the surface. The police were un-
duubtedly perfectly aware that the Pitts
burg warrant was no longer in effect and
that Mr.. Kieran had given bond in that
city.
1T is a little curious that Mr. Gilroy
should have appeared promptly with
his subpoena. which he would not have
been able 10 serve otherwise. The police
tried TO photograph Mr.. kieran, although
there are no criminal charges of any
kind against him I'm this state. They de-
sisted only after his most vigorous pro-
test and threats of legal proceedings.
II consider the whole proceeding an
outrage" Mr.. Shire repeated ut GER
tainly was curious how promptly that
subpoena appeared We are going to lind
out il we can how Gilroy came 10 get on
the job So promptly"
Mr.. Shire stated that while he had no
opportunity to confer with his client as
vet he could vouch for his appearance
at the proceedings relative to the affairs
Of the Fidelity Funding Company the

Eclipses of the Sun and Moon-Hal-
ley's Comet Visible.

Astronomical phenomena in 1869 will be
OF sufficient interest to give the student
Of this branch of science something to
look forward to. There will be d total
eclipse of the moon on June ), and it will

South America. The beginning may be
observed also in southwestern Asia. In
North America the moon will rise eclipSed.
There will he a central eclipse of the sun

in few seconds to a total eclipse and
will remain so until fraction of a min
ute Of its end. when 1t will change back
to an annular eclipse. The path of the
total eclipse passes almost wholly over
the inaccessible regions within the arctic
circle.
The total eclipse of the moon November
% will be visible generally throughout
North America. The beginning will be
visible in South America and northeastern
Asia. The ending in northwestern South
America, eastern and northern Asia, and
Australia.
There will be partial eclipse of the
sun December II, and it will be visible
only in south polar regions and parts of
Australia, New Zealand and the South
Shetland Islands.
There are two periodic comets due in
1909, and one which is due at oerihelion
only early In 1910 may be caught sight
of in the latter part of this year.
Comet G.. 1908 tMorehousey. which will
soon be invisible to us in the northern
hemisphere. will be plain to observers in
South America, and will afford a splendid
opportunity for series of photographs
which will be unique in the history of
comets. After May, 1909, it will be again
visible to northern observers.
The astronomical world is looking for

its perihelion may not be reached until

SENATE WITHOUT AUTHORITY
CANNOT CALL ON PRESIDENT
FOR CERTAIN INFORMATION.
Subcommittee Reached Decision in
Connection With Tennessee Coal
and Iron Company Case.

In the opinion of the special subc ommit-
tee of the Senate judiciary committee.
considering the merger of the United
States Steel Corporation and the Tonnes
see Coal and Iron Company. the Senate
has no right to call on the President for
information which he may have obtained
in regard to those corporations. The sit
uation is decidedly embarrassing to the
judiciary committee. but. regardless of
that fact it has been decided to proceed
with the inquiry and report to the Senate
whether the President had authority to
permit the merger.
When the committee called on Attorney
General Bonaparte TO appear before it at
u recent meeting reply was received de-
Ginning the invitation. The invitation was
not made public.
Calls Attention to Law.
1t is now known that Mr. Bonaparte di-
rected the committees attention to the
act to establish the Department of Com
merce and Labor and argued that it Is a
bar to any demand for such information
as the President may have acquired con-
corning the necessity for the absorption
of the Tennessee concern. Under that
act the commissioner of corporations is
empowered to gather from corporations
formation and data S will enable the
President to make recommendations to
Congress for regulation. This provision
of law concludes as follows:
And the information SO obtained, or
as much thereof as the President may di-
rect shall be made public"
The data supplied to the President by
Judge E. II. Gary and II. I. Prick as to
the necessity for the merger, according
to Mr.. Bonaparte, comes within this
clause of the Commerce and Labor act.
Without this information it is difficult for
the committee to proceed
Procedure Not Certain.
Although several meetings have been
held. the judiciary committee has not
been able to decide on any course of pro-
cedure which would not seem to threaten
quarrel with the President. There is d
disposition on the part of majority of
the members of the committee to pro-
ceed with the inquiry although no pro-
gram has been arranged.
The suggestion has been made that all
of the information required could be
given by MessrS. Prick and Gary. but no
decision to subpoena the men has been
reached.
