INCREASING
POSTAL RATES

WASHINGTON. Nov Changes
are planned for the postal service to
reduce expenses and increase the rev.
enue from the department with a
view of lowering the yearly deficit.
President Taft has prepared recon-.
mendations calculated to greatly in.
crease the revenue derived from car.
rying of this matter
Reading matter will be carried at
the same rate as heretofore. the only
increase being made I'm regard to the
advertising pages Of the periodicals.
The ratio of increase is not yet set,
but even though it is at a small figure.
it will mean an immense annual sum
additional to the present revenue. Az
planned advertising will be separated
from the reading matter, each weighed
and postage set on each, the postage
on the entire reading matter being
their combined sum.
Postmaster-General Hitchcock IS
greatly responsible for the new idea,
as it is in line with his previous rec.
concentrations and his efforts to in
troduce reform into the American pos
tai system.

PROSPECT Of
SERIOUS TROUBLE
IN CHINA

LONDON, October Among the
most interesting incidents of the an
nual meeting of the British Associa-
ton at Sheffield is the report of the
committee on earthquake investiga-
tions. The committee completed down
to 1900 catalogue of all the destruc-
tive earthquakes recorded in history
They date from A. d. and they num-
Der more than 1000. The record refers
only to earthquakes which have been
accompanied by destruction or by
changes of the earth's surface, or
which have extended over large areas
The most startling thing in the re-
port is the suggestion that at the pres
ent time a new continent is in the
making. 1t is pointed out that the
most pronounced seat of earthquake
activity today is along a band run
ming from the southern extremity of
the Philippine islands and Java in an
east-southeast direction toward the
middle of the Pacific In the islands
which stud this area with their inter
vening troughs are seen the outcrops
of mountain ranges of Himalayan pro-
portions. further upheaval Of no
great relative importance would mark
the birth of a continent.

Those, therefore, who views are

That this has not been the case is
believed to be solely due to social and

has been a considerable increase in the

increase in the internal revenue receipts,

Quoted a fIibuster against a reclamation
bill Friday last. held up the Senate yes
terday for nearly two hours in opposition
TO bill providing that 20 per cent OF
moneys appropriated for land surveys
shall be available for resurveys. The
measure was taken up for consideration
on a roll call vote over the protest Of the
Idaho Senator. who announced after the
result: This bill win not pass the Sen
ate to-day"
Senator Hepburn made good his threat,
for he talked against time until O'Clock.
when the rule for consideration of calen-
der bills displaced him.
Senator Hepburn objected co the pend
ing bill. which was urged before the
Senate by Senator Clark, of Wyoming,
because he said Idaho has 2s,0Oo 900 acres
Of unsurveyed land. He maintained that
the bin was selfish one, designed to
benefit Wyoming and a few Western
States that have had practically all their
lands surveyed
The State Of Wyoming ate at the first
table" declared the Senator from Idaho.
and she ate a full meal, at that. After
the feast is over she wants TO come back
and share the same privileges as those
who are sitting down at the festal table
for the first time. We want this money
TO give legal status to our unsurveyed
lands for the benefit of settlers"
When the hour of 2 o'clock arrived Sem
ator Elkins called up the railroad bill,
but no member of the Senate Was ready
to speak. The amendment offered by
Senator Hepburn providing for land
court was read. whereupon the Idaho
Senator. who had spoken throughout the
morning hour. announced that he was
prepared to speak on his amendment to
the railway bill the remainder Of the day.
Senator EIkins said he did not wish 20
force Senator Hepburn to speak the re-
mainder of the day. and the Senate pro-
ceeded TO the consideration of executive
business. adjourning at 2:26 p. m. until

RESENTS ATTACKS ON PEARY.
Prof. Ganneft Declares Gov. Browns
Action Was UnyarTanted.

Irrespective of previous partisan af1lia-
lions. there was a general feeling OF re-
sentiment expressed throughout Wash
ington yesterday at the report from At
Ianta quoting Gov. James N. Brown, of
that State. as having renewed his attacks
upon Commander Robert r. Peary, and
declaring him to be a faker
Probably no one was more pronounced
in his resentment than Prof. Henry Gan
nett, who. as a member Of the committee
appointed by the National Geographic
Society TO review the proofs submitted
by Commander Peary. had greater oppor-
tunity 70 determine the merits of his
claim than any one other than the two
gentlemen who served with him upon the
committee
Prof. Gsnnett looks upon the action Of
Gov. Brown as being absolutely unwar-
ranted. in view OF his lack of information
on the subject.
The data submitted by Commander
Peary was OF so technical a character. ?
Prof. Gannett asserted, that Il would
be only ineligible to an expert on such
matters. In connection with my associates
on the committee, I gave the most care
fui consideration to the proofs submitted
by Mr.. Peary, who has, 20 my mind, es-
tablished his claim beyond a question of
doubt"
