the plaintiff, presented their final ar
guments this afternoon. In all, ten
witnesses were heard I'm this case, the
testimony of some of THIN being of
an expert nature. The mining COM

duced by the injuries sustained. al

years later.

President Taft gave ample proof
yesterday that he can be strenuous,
too, If the occasion demands. Hear
ing that a filibuster was proposed
against the Postal Savings Bank bill
during his intended absence at New
Haven. he gave up his plans to attend
his sons graduation at Yale and made
il known he would stay in Washing
ton to see that the Postal bill was
passed in satisfactory form. Immedi-
ately he called some Of the recalcit-
rant senator's to the White House and
laid the law down 10 them. telling them
exactly what he expected and demand
ed Of them. This is not the first time
the president has demonstrated he can
take as determined a stand i'm legisla-
tive matters as his strenuous predeces-
scr and the whole country will applaud
him for his courage to do the peoples
bidding.
