Crosby had always been inclined to
conservatism in household expenses,
especially in the matter Of his wife's
dress bills. His wife went so far as
to say that he was penurious.
She had been In need of a new boa
for a long time, and after she limited
that her happiness would never be
quite complete till she had one, he at
last consented to make the purchase.
He went into a store and picked out
two. one Of which was cheap imita-
ton affair, and the other fine expen-
sive one. Taking them to his office
before going home. he changed the
price marks. the expensive tag on the
cheap boa and vice versa.
His wife examined them for a long
time very seriously indeed, and then
said; Now, dear, the expensive boa
is beauty, and 1t is very good Of you
to allow me my choice. Some women
would take It without word; but

FORTHCOMING MESSAGE.
President Taft VIII Ask for Epoch
Making Changes.

Washington, Nov 16.--The chief
subjects to be discussed by President
Taft in his forthcoming message TO
congress are not secrets since the re-
cent tour Of the president. He has in
dieated pretty clearly in his speeches
what they will be, and has mapped out
a program more ambitious and more ex
tensive than even Mr.. Roosevelt him
self ever attempted. Mr.. Taft proposes
to submit the whole program TO con
gress at one time-to ask in single
message for the enactment of laws that
will, If they are passed, mark the com
ing session of congress as truly epoch
making.
Most of the bills he proposes to have
introduced affect corporations in one
way or another, and the most impor-
tant of them promise TO arouse fully
as much opposition as anything that
developed IN the fight over the rate
bill three years ago.
Mr.. Taft viii propose to congress i'm
portant legislation upon at least ten
subjects. Each is a matter which will
provoke discussion and arouse opposi-
tion in congress, especially in the sen
ate, so that from the present point OF
view the prospect is for long and
acrimonious session. The chief sub
jects on which the president will rec
ommend legislation are:
]. Supervision of the issue of stocks
and bonds by interstate corporations.
2. Readjustment of the duties anC
powers of the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
3. Expansion of the duties of The
bureau of corporations.
4. Creation of a new bureau in thu
department Of justice to deal will
violations of law by interstate carriers
5. Establishment of so-calle,
"railroad court"
6. Amendment Of the Sherman anti
trust law.
Z. Creation of a postal savings bank
s. Ship subsidies.
8. Amendment of the procedure re
garding the granting of injunctions.
10. Conservation of natural re
sources.

LOEB CREDITS ROOSEVELT.
Collector Says Ex-President Influenced
Present Action.

New York, Nov. 16.-While the legal
machinery of the government moves
slowly, the air of uncertainty surround
ing the so-ealled sugar fraud cases is
interpreted to foreshadow an inquiry
which may rank with the insurance
upheaval of 1905.
Boston and Philadelphia were
brought within the scope of the inves-
tigation today with the report that the
government would attempt to obtain
back duties on sugar in those cities,
while investigation went on in New
York with repeated rumors of reach
ing "men higher up"
Henry L. Stimson, special attorney
for the government in the cases, de.
clined to discuss this phase of the
matter.
William Loeb, Jr., collector of the
port, also was inclined to be reticent
but he repeated that it was through
the influence of Theodore Roosevelt
that the Indictment and prosecution OF
sugar frauds was undertaken. Accord
ing to Mr.. Loeb, he had talked over
the matter with Mr.. Roosevelt before
he took charge of the customs house

HOPE is ABANDONED.
Rescuers Forced to Give Up Work in
Illinois Mine.

Cherry, ILL.,, Nov. 16.-The 300 or
more miners entombed in the st. Paul
mine by last Saturdays catastrophe
are dead. Some of the bodies lie
buried beneath thousands of tons of
earth which caved in upon them. These
will never be recovered.
Rescue work is temporarily aban-
doned. Renewed fires in the mine made
further deseents impossible. Fans en-
ployed in an effort to carry fresh air
to the imprisoned men enlivened the
flames. Soon the heat and smoke be-
came so dense it was necessary again
to seal up the mouth of the hosting
shaft, and tonight the entombed men
are locked in a death dungeon. Steam
and chemicals producing earbonic acid
gas will be forced through pipes to the
bottom of the mine tomorrow. These
will have a tendency to choke out the
flames.
Three hundred collins have been or
dered-half of them to arrive Tuesday
and half on Wednesday.

KNOX SAYS JAPAN
LEFT DOOR OPEN
Secretary Of State Declares Treaty
With China No Menace.
Japan's Working of Manchuria Mines
Not Monopoly and America Has
Equal Chance With Other Nations
Territory Open to Anyone Who
Finds Minerals.

Washington, Nov. 16.-Recent treat
les entered into by China and Japan
as to the operation of coal mines along
the South Manchurian railway and the
Antung Mukden railway do not create
monopolies, and hence are not viola
tions of the "open door, or the
"equal opportunities principles, to
the observance of which all leading
powers are pledged.
This is the conclusion reached by the
state department. after long and
careful investigation of the question
involved.
The department today issued the fol
lowing statement:
% In view of the widespread publicity
of the statement that the recent Chi
nese-Japanese agreement relating to
Manchuria created for Chinese and
Japanese subjects a monopoly to carry
on mining operations along the South
Manchurian railway and the Antung-
Mukden railway, which would exclude
Americans from an extensive field of
industrial enterprise, inquiry has been
made of the two signatory powers and
official assurance has been received
from each to the effect that no such
exclusive claim to mining rights was
intended by the agreement, and that
if minerals are found by Americans
and others within the designated ter
ritories, no objection will be made to
their working mines under concessions
granted by China-the whole scope and
purpose of the agreement being that
any operation by Chinese and japanese
subjects of the mines within the ter
ritory mentioned should be joint as be
tween themselves

Ruef in talking about his case, at
tributes his affliction to lack of air,
He said:
"I have been advised that an opera

mined to submit to it. l have also
been informed my Affections result
from lack of air. There is a growth
in my nose that is said to also affect

Smoke victim Packs Gum.

Chicago, Nov. 12-The war between
officials of the Chicago and Oak Park
railway and smokers, who have been
arrested for smoking in cars, goes mer-
rily on. A militant suburbanite was ar
raigned in court charged with disorder
ly conduct, because he boarded ''con-
verted" smoker with a revolver in a
holster strapped to his waist. The case
was continued. Meanwhile the smokers
discussed the possibility of compelling
the railroad company to raise tracks in
Oak Park, where they are on the sur
face or reinstate the banished smoking
cars.

WAR CLOUD CLEARS.
Canada Will Not Be Called Upon to
Build Navy.

Ottawa, Ont, Nov. 16.-The reported
momentous arrangement between the
cabinets of the British and German
empires has bhghted the prospects of
the Canadian navy. The proposal for
about $25, 100000 to start the building
of war craft will not now be made to
the Dominion government.
News from inside sources is that Off
cial information has been received and
that an understanding has been reached
between England and Germany that
may result in a period being set to
their rivalry in naval construction. As
the chief purpose of the projected Ca
madam navy was to aid the mother
country in the event of hostilities,
which were believed to be threatened
by Germany, the rumored arrangement
between the governments in London
and Berlin clears up the situation and
renders unnecessary the heavy expen-
diture for war vessels by Canada.
Present indications are, therefore, that
the government will content itself with
the acquisition of a few vessels of
moderate size and cost, torpedo craft
predominating.
