cidedly Mild Talk to Followers.
New York. April 12.-Emma Cold
man, the anarchist, addressed large
and enthusiastic audience of her fol-
lowers at Lyric Hall. today. Her sub
ject was "the psychology Of violence >
Miss Gcldman's remarks were entire
ly temperate and the meeting was or
derly. There were no interference
by the police, although many plain
clothes men and uniformed policemen
were present.
Miss Goldman denied statements Of
Lying newspapers" that she is re-
sponsible for acts of violence COM
mitted by over Jealous anarchists.
These people" she said, ARE good,
wholesouled people who are driven
to acts of violence only after they
have seen the sufferings of humanity"
She told her auditors that many
persons, knowing her to be opposed to
violence. had asked her why she did
not renounce those of her cult who
advocated resorting to forcible means
Of impressing Upon "tyrannical rule
their determination to improve the lot
of man.
Il cannot condemn these people"
she said. They are merely human
beings who have convinced them
selves. through their own psychology,
that 1t is their duty to help their fell
low man, even at the cost of human
life"
Miss Goldman made no allusion to
the cancellation Of her citizenship.
She will speak next Sunday on the
hypocrisy of puritanism."

NINE INJURED
Burlington Train Left the Rails
Disastrous Results,

burlington IRAN Left the Halls
Disastrous Results.
Tacoma, WASH, April 12.-The
wrecking Of Burlington train No. 16,
eastbound on the Northern Pacific,
one mile west of Bristol. between
Cleellum and Ellensburg last night,
resulted in the death of Engineer
Franklin J. Hammond of Tacoma and
Fireman Johnson. and the injury Of
nine passengers more or less serious
ly The cause of the accident is un-
known. The injured were taken to
the hospital at Cleellum.
Striking the sharp curve near Bris-
told at high rate Of speed. the train
left the track and ran nearly it's own
length on the ties before oming to a
stop. The engine turned completely
over, the baggage car was turned
crosswise of the track and the mail
car slid down the track to the edge Of
the river. A car of fresh fish in the
train was also badly damaged. All
OF the cars in the train left the track
with the exception of one rear sleepev
but no one was injured back of the
day coaches.
None Of the baggagemen or mail
clerks was injured. although their
cars received the brunt OF the shock.
The body Of Fireman Johnson was
found beside his engine in q pool OF
water. but the body Of the engineer
mas nos been recovered.

fort was made to reduce rates on the
co-called breakfast table" articles of
commerce. 1t was reported today that
another effort would be made to have
a duty placed on coffee in the senate
in behalf Of the coffee syndicate, which
is alleged to have large number of
bags of Brazilian product boarded in
this country.
At meeting Of the committee today
It was decided to add coal to the list
Of subjects on which the advice Of the
senate. without recommendation, is to
be asked. This means that instead Of
striking out the reciprocity clause and
fixing a duty of forty cents a ton on
bituminous coal as heretofore decided,
the Payne rates will be reported with.
out recommendation.
10 the reciprocity clause will go out,
L. :r; that the duty will be de-
crea> Sfoc about forty cents and that
ton no, on . slas ~ s will ra be maintained
against ..f free eel lun n. eled its advocates
maintain the reduction agreed upon
by the house. The fight which will be
made on the floor for free hides has
begun, and an effort is being made to
line up the members. Western sena-
tors are confident duty will be placed
on hides but they are not sanguine Of
maintaining the existing fifteen per
cent ad valorem.
Tobacco interests failed in their ef-
forts to induce the committee to reduce
the amount of Philippine tobacco to
be admitted annually free of duty and
to get an increase in the rates on to-
bacco from other countries. The re-
commended rates on lithographing, in
cluding post cards and cigar labels. as
contained in the Payne bill, will be
reported. The Payne rates on pottery
and fine china have been agreed to in
spite of the demands of American
manufacturers. supported by speeches
made by President Taft in his CAM
paign that further protection is need
ed by them for such of their wares as
come into competition with Haviland
and Limouges china.
1t was learned that the senate COM
mittee would provide ample protec-
ton for American manufacturers Of
watch dials. All except two of the
American factories are said to have
been driven out of business by the
competition with dials made abroad,
chiefly in Switzerland.
No attention was paid by the senate
committee to the so-called oil Joker
in the Payne bill as it passed the
house. Petroleum and its products
are among the articles which are to be
reported to the senate without recon-
mendation.
