WHITE MAN IN cRUMs PLACE.
Taft Drops Negro Collector at Charles
ton and Names DuTant.

Washington, March l7.--President
Taft has settled the long controversy
over the Office of collector Of the port
Of Charleston. S. c., by sending TO the
Senate the nomination Of Edward w.
Durant, Jr.
Mr.. Dnrant Is white man, originally
from the North, who went South and
married Southern woman. His selec-
tion gives satisfaction to Southern sena-
tors, who for years fought the appoint
ment of DR.. Crum, the negro collector
at Charleston, 50 bitterly.
Mr. Durant's appointment is in line
with the policy forecasted by Mr.. Taft
in his inaugural address, wherein he indi.
Gated he would not appoint negroes to
Office where the race prejudice was strong
against them.
As the only objection to DR.. Crum
was based upon the fact that he is a
negro, it il presumed that Mr.. Durant's
nomination viii be confirmed in due
course Of time, although it was allowed
TO lie over when the Senate met in ex-
ecutiye session yesterday while other
nominations which were sent in yester-
day were promptly acted upon. DR..
Crum's nomination had been before the
Senate at each session since Jan. 5.
1908. While he has been in Office all
this time, he was never but once con-
firmed by the Senate. The one con-
iirmation took place in the fifty eighth
Congress- The remainder OF the time
was covered by recess appointments.

About Czars and Tommyrot.

Washington, March l7.--speaker Cam
non and Champ Clark exchanged hot
compliments yesterday morning Speak
er Cannon went to the White House to
see President Taft and on departing
talked of the rules fight. He made this
answer to question as to the fight in
the House Monday;
"The amendments to the rules have
greatly improved them. All this stuff
about the speaker being a car is the
purest tommyrot. There has never been
a time when the majority could not
control the House. What they wanted
to do was to make committee Of ff-
teen czars, dominated by Champ Clark
and Ia Toilette. That Is also tommyrot
La Toilette is fake"
When Representative Champ Clark
called on President Taft later in the
morning and was told what the speaker
said, he answered briefly:
Uncle Joe has paresis."
Mr.. Clark would not comment further
except to say that the amendments to
the rules adopted Monday afternoon
amount to very little.

Easier Feeling Is Apparent in Eggs This

Boston. March 1.-THE week opens
in the local market for dairy products
with but little change from the condi'
lions OF last week An easier feeling is
apparent in eggs, but prices are unchang-
ed except for slight reduction in west
ern stock. The supply is again running
in excess of wants and because Of that
condition dealers are not inclined to hold
too firmly, especially AS outside markets
are inclined lower. Butter is still quiet
and irregular; fine goods are not very
plenty and are firmly held, but there Is
an abundance of the lower grades, for
which prices are easy. Cheese continues
firm; the demand is steady and fairly
large and, as receipts are light, reserve
holdings are constantly diminishing.
