THOUSAND BODIES FOUND
No More Living Persons Taken
from Cartago Ruins.

San Jose Costa Rica, May 9.-More than
one thousand dead have been taken from
the ruins of Cartago. No one is allowed
within the precincts of the devastated CITY
except the Red Cross workers and gangs
of soldiers and volunteers employed IN
clearing away the wreckage. removing the
bodies and blowing up the dangerous build
ings.
Most of the survivors of the earthquake
are now at San joss Medicines and 1000
supplies from the American warships are
being rushed from Port I1irnon, but the con-
dition of those who still remain around the
city is such that extraordinary measures
must be taken to provide assistance and
shelter for them.
Even in San jose the residents are living
in tents and wooden structures for the most
| part. fearing to occupy their homes, as the
earth tremors still continue.
! No living person has been taken from the
ruins in the last two days, and 1T Is known
that there are still many beneath the
broken walls and timbers. Owing to the
general feeling of panic, tho various or
ganizations engaged in the work Of relief

ing of traffic agreements. not to last
longer than thirty days, between COM
peting lines as to rates, but forbade
pooling This was declared for in the
platform and recommended to Congress
in two or three messages of President
Roosevelt The purpose was to legalize
the practice that will prevail whether
the law permits or not. 1t seems to me
essential that rates should be fixed tenn
porarily at the same amount in order to
prevent q rate cutting where each time
the fixing of rates is had. No one sug
sests the wisdom of instituting prose-
cutions under the antitrust law to pre-
vent this practice, and ii seemed wise
therefore to formulate its limitations u
continue and recognize ii as lawful. but
the fear that it might impair the efficacy
of the antitrust law in some indefinite
way was so strong among some mem
bers of the Senate that it was thought
wise to withdraw the section.
Section IL was also withdrawn. That
is the section that forbids the acQuisi-
ton by one railroad company Of the
stocks in competing line, but
where such an acquisition has al
ready been made Of 10 per cent au-
thorizes the acquiring company to
increase its holdings to 100 per
cent. This was not with the view Of
strengthening the control Of the acQuir-
ing company, for 30 per cent is all that
! needed.
ma rllet to the minority stock holders to
sell to the majority stock holders. This,
too, il was thought. i'm some way in
/ fringed on the antitrust law. and the
whole section was dropped.
Important Features Retained.
/ ] am hopeful the section may he re-
stored to the extent of forbidding fut-
ure acquisition by one line of stock in
competing line. 1t is true that such
an act affecting interstate commerce
might be part Of conspiracy TO re-
strain competition and so restrain trade
and be punishable under the antitrust
act, but il would greatly facilitate pros
ecutions if the specific act Of the acqui-
sjtion of stock in a competing line could
be denounced and punished or prevented
by injunction.
/ think ii will be seen from this view
that the railroad bill. which in many
respects is the most important of the
administration measures, still retains its
important features, and / am hopeful
that within the next two weeks We shall
see the passage Of the bill in both
houses. the adjustment Of the differ
ences between the two houses and it's

FREDERICK THOUGHT
 READY TO CONFESS
Springfield stat.'s Attorney Intimates illinois SoIon May Reveal Further
 Graft-Browne to Trial.

Springfield, H., June 2.-The return to Springfield of States Attorney Burke was followed by sensational re- ports of the possibility of "confes- sion" from State Senator Broderick or Chicago. Burke himself hinted at the Likelihood of such thing.
 Have you received any intimatlon from Senator Frederick that he would like to confide a few things in you? was asked of the Sangamon prosecu- tor as he was finishing his toilet in the Alton sleeper, having just arrived from Chicago.
 Not directly, no direct intimation,' said the prosecutor, but there IS something in the atmosphere here which makes people likely to talk, II would seem. Senator Broderick is ev- idently wasting considerable time here. I don't understand that he has any business to keep him in Spring field"
 Lee O'Neil Browne, Democratic leader of the Illinois legislature, must go to trial on the charge of bribing legislators to vote for William Lori mer for United States senator
 Judge McSurely of Chicago over ruled the motion of the defense to quash the indictment against Browne and ordered the case to trial. His de- cision was that bribery in a United States senatorial election Is an of fense against the state of Illinois and is covered by the criminal stat ute.
 All other technicalities interposed by the defense were overruled.
 As soon as the decision was read Attorney Forest arose and took eX- ception to the courts ruling on seven technical points, the chief of which was that the rights of the defendant guaranteed by the fourteenth amend men. to the constitution of the United Sates were being abrogated.
 The prisoner was then arraigned Tn consonance with the motion of Attor- ney Wayman, a plea of not guilty was entered, and the fight over the date for the trial was begun

 Mayor James H. Polsgrove made the address of welcome for the city shortly after noon, and was followed by Governor Wilson and former Gov ernor Becllham under whose admins tration the erection of the building was begun.
 The principal address of the day was made by Senator w. O. Bradley, who was introduced to the assemblage by Governor Wilson. The singing by the girls of the Louisville high school and the patriotic music by the band were among the features of the exercises. During the afternoon the building and offices were ope for in- spection by the visitors. From 7:3O D. m. until II D. m. the state reception will be held in the capitol building.

ANNOUNCEMENT MADE BY MAY OR GAYNOR AT BANQUET TO
 GLENN Fl. CURTiSS.
NEW YORK TO ST. LOUIS
Curtiss' Albany-New York Trip Causes Awakening in Aeronautic Circles -S2ooo0 Offered for Flight
 to St. Louis.

New York, June 2.-Prizes iotaling $55,0O0 have been offered for aero plane flights from New York to St. Louis and from New York to Chicago.
 The New York to St. Louis prize ot $30,000 is offered by the World; the New York to Chicago purse of s25,oOo for a race by the New York Times and the Chicago Evening Post
 Conditions governing the St. Louis flight will be announced shortly, after a conference with aeronautic experts. The announcement of the prize was made by Mayor Gaynor at a banquet at Hotel AStor given in honor of Glenn H. Curtiss, who made the flight from Albany to Governors Island Sunday, winning prize of $10,OOO.
 Ten days will be allowed for the race to Chicago, and it must take place before next October.
 Hamilton Will Be Competitor.
 Charles K. Hamilton announced he would be a contestant in the New York to St. Louis flight, and might enter for the New York to Chicago prize.
 Curtiss had much less to say at the dinner in his honor than any of the speakers He told the banqueters hat he had planned everything in ad- yance except the possibility of a speech. In a talk that took less than five minutes. he suggested that the time is coming shortly when cities will provide landing places for avia- tors and forbid air men to sail helter- Skelter over the heads of groundlings.
 A distinguished company gathered to meet the young aviator. At table the modest Curtiss sat between the mayor and Brigadier General Walter Howe, United States army, in con- man of the department of the East.
 A flood of congratulatory cable grams and telegrams was read. Among them were messages from Ble- riot, the French aviator; the Aero Club of France; Count Jacques de Lesseps, who recently flew across the English Channel; Hart o. Berg, "the father of aviation" and Hubert Eath- am, the French aviator.
 Sees Perfected Air Craft Soon.
 Hudson Maxim, one of the speakers of the evening, said: "As that war less era of which we catch glimpses in our dreams of distant future is unquestionably yet far away, we must in our prediction, look to the flying machine, which war as well as sport and commerce, is to build and perfect.
 We shall not have to wait hun dred years for this stanch, wind-defy- ing machine with automatic equliba- tion. Very soon automobilng of the air will be as safe as automobling upon the earth now is. Neither shall we have to wait hundred years for that spectacular eyentuation-a fight between aerial navies. for these are bound to come"
 Curtiss was enthusiastic over the new offer, but in the absence of de- tails as to the stops allowed, and oth- 4er conditions, he would not say deh- nitely whether he would enter the contest.
 Charles K Hamilton, who an nounced he would be a contestant, had planned to enter the New York-Albany race, but Curtiss was too quick for him.

it's power in ordering the reduction of freight rates in the so-called Missouri River rate cases and the Denver rate case. These orders were held to be valid
 The Missouri River rate cases were based on an order of the commission reducing the freight rate between the Mississippi river and the Missouri river, as part of the through rate on through shipments originating in the seaboard territory. The Denver rate cases were based on an order reduc- ing the rates on through freight from Chicago and from St. Louis to Den yer.
 In both cases certain railroads and shippers concerned claimed that the commission was endeavoring to divide the country into rate zones. The cir cult court of the Northern district of Illinois decided this contention was correct. The supreme court of the United States in decision, an- nounced by Justice McKenna, stated that it believed the commission was not attempting to exercise such a power, and that the record showed no evidence that such was being done. Hence it reversed the decision of the district court in both cases.
