SENATOR NELSON
ON ALASKA PLAN
Wants the Present Generation
to Get Use of Public
Resources.

Washington. June 7.-Senator Mel
son yesterday sharply criticised the
policy of conservation as practiced in
Alaska. He said that territory had
been put in q straight Jackie" by the
withdrawal of the public lands.
The Minnesota senator was discuss
ing the bill authorizing the president
to withdraw from entry the public
lands for public purposes, which he
advocated. Senator Nelson said he
desired especially that it should un-
derstand that he did not mean to
criticise, either the present admins
tration or the preceding one. He ad-
ded that he thought congress was as
much to blame as any one.
Mr.. Nelson's address followed a
speech made by Senator Clarke of
Wyoming, sharply criticising the bill.
The senator from Minnesota favored
conservative action on the part of the
executive in depriving the public of
the opportunity to avail itself of the
benefits of the public resources. He
thought the. present generation should
have full access to these resources
Mr.. Nelson said that while he gave
his adherence to conservation
policy, he did 80 only when it was
rational and conservative. He would
have the public resources so admins
tered as to afford the living gener-
alton the opportunity Of the full and
proper use of them.
Discussing the application of the
conservation policy 10 Alaska. he
dwe1t upon the fact that except in the
extreme southern part of that terri
tory there was no timber. and that
consequently the people were without
fuel unless they were allowed to use
the coal supply of that region.
"In face of this fact there are valu-
able coal fields in various parts of the
territory the people have not been
given opportunity to use ton of it
with the consequence that they are
compelled to bring their fuel either
from Australia or China or around
the horn from our eastern states.
Thus they are compelled to pay from
SIP to $50 per ton when they ought
to get it for So" This he denounced
as Conservation run riot"

DIR. JONES HIT
bLEACHEO FLOUR
Declares the Chemicals Used
Are Detrimental to the Di-
gestive Process.

Kansas City, June 7.-Dr. Hamilton
H. Jones of New Orleans, pure food
commissioner for Louisiana, today re-
sumed his place on the witness stand
in the "bleached flour" case now be-
ing tried in the United States circuit
court here. Brus Elliott of st. Louis
cross-examined Jones, trying by a
rapid fire of questions to cause the
witness to contradict the statements
that he had made yesterday while on
the stand regarding his opinion as to
the deleterious effects Of the chemi-
Gals used in the bleached flour pro-
cess. Jones testified yesterday that he
had examined the bleached -four; that
bread made from it affected its diges-
tibility and that the great amount of
nitro-peroxide used in bleaching made
it an impairment of digestion.

RAILROAD BILL
NOW IN HOUSE
Lenroot Objects to Motion to
Non-concur in the Senate
Amendments.

Washington, June THE railroad
bill was taken up by the house soon
after that body convened today. Chair
man Mann of the committee on inter-
state commerce moved to non-concur
in the senate amendments and to ask
for conference. The motion requir-
ing unanimous consent, Representa-
tive Lenroot Of Wisconsin. one Of the
Republican insurgents, objected.
President Taft sent a special mes
sage to congress in which he recon-
mended that the clause in the new
railroad bill which gives the inter-
state commerce commission the power
to investigate and suspend the in
creased rates filed by the railroads
be modified so as to take effect i'm
mediately upon the signing of the act

AGREEMENT ON
THE RATE CASE
Railroads Will Hold Up In.
crease and Government Will
Suspend Injunction.

Washington, June IA complete
agreement between the government
and the recently enjoined railroads of
the Western Trunk Line association
was reached at white house confer
ence which lasted for more than four
hours yesterday afternoon.
The railroads represented agreed to
withdraw all rate increases filed to
be effective on or after June / and
agreed to file no more increases until
the bill In congress, which gives the
interstate commerce commission pow
er to investigate and suspend in
creases that are not justified, becomes
a law and goes into effect.
President Taft thereupon stated
that the administration purpose in
bringing the injunction suit had been
accomplished and the suit would be
discontinued. The discontinuance will
not be entered. however, until after
the new railroad law is signed.
The belief was expressed last night
that all of the other railroads of the
country which have filed increased
rates or have had such plan under
consideration, will abide by the agree
ment reached last night with the
twenty-four railroads named as de-
PENDANTS in the recent suit.
Every one connected with the con-
ference seemed gratified over the out
come. All that President Taft has
desired is that the interstate COM
merce commission should have au-
thority to investigate increases in
rates to determine whether or not
they are justified by prevailing con-
ditions and are just to the shippers.
This power is to be conferred under
the new law.
The railroads. on the other hand. it
is pointed out. are to be relieved of
embarrassing litigation. are assured
of a square deal" when their case is
presented to the interstate commerce
commission. and are free to resume
the contracts for improvements and
extensions which they threatened to
cancel had the court proceedings con-
tinued.
The new railroad bill contains q
clause which gives it effect sixty days
after being signed by the president.
1t will be necessary to make the pro-
vision as to the supervision of rates
by the interstate commerce commits
sion Immediately effective and for this
reason, as President Taft indicated.
1t will be necessary to send the bill
to conference.

to offer one substitute for the entire
bill
The Democrats of the committee
filed two minority reports against the
bill, one by Representative Moon of
Tennessee inveighilg against all pos
tai savings bank legislation as uncon-
stitutional and unwise, and another
by Representative. Finley Of South
Carolina, supported by other Demo-
cratic members of the committee crit
icising the Republican bill and Offer
ing Democratic meaaure as q sub
stitute.
The Democrats will SIGHT the pas
sage Of this rule with all the vigor
they can command, They will be sup
ported by number of "insurgent"
Republicans who are opposed to the
passage Of bills In the house without
opportunity Of amendment. It is ex-
pected that onl ytwenty minutes de-
bate will be allowed on the rule 80
that the fight o nit will be short and
sharp. The Republicans claim to have
enough votes to adopt the rule and
pass the bill.
The majority report on the bill was
not nnlSne0 lOday Dut Representative
Gardner of New Jersey, who will re-
port it, stated that 1t would contain
nothing more than the we'll known
arguments in favor of postal savings
banks.
Representative Moons report is a
strong denunciation, of the legislation.
After asserting its pnconstitutionality.
he says:
"This bill, in fact, is but a means
for the collection, control and CEN
tralization of the capital of the coun-
try. It is an innocent forerunner of
the central federal bank for the con-
troll of all money with the power of
contraction and expansion of the cur
rency. deciding the fortunes of COM
'merce and labor. and monopolizing
the banking intrests Of the country.
1t is one of the most deceptive and
dangerous measures that has yet come
before congress.
The Democratic minority bill differs
from the committee bill principally
in the matter Of the deposit Of postal
savings funds.

r. Naples, June 7.-Severe earth
shocks caused number of deaths
and much property damage in cen
trail Campania early today. The dis
turbance appears to have centered in
the province of Avenillo. The tele-
graph wires were torn down and
communication with the affected dis
trict was broken. The meagre re-
ports received this forenoon indicate
that the greatest damage was done
at Calitri in the province Of Avellino.
Calttri Is said to have been half de-
stroyed and twenty people are report
ed to have been killed there. Other
deaths occurred at Valata nearby.
and 1t is feared that fatalities will
be reported from other villages which
for the time are cut of from COM
munication with this city.
The shock occurred at 3:07 o'clock
this morning while the people were
still In their beds. Many houses at
Calitri tumbled down, burying the
occupants in the ruins. Those who
escaped death or serious injury fled
from their homes and into the coun-
try. None waited to put on street
clothes and as a result many sub
sequently suffered from exposure
Troops were dispatched from all
quarters into the affected district as
soon as the loss of life and property
damage became known to the govern
ment and the officials Of nearby
cities. The shocks were felt here but
no damage was done in this immedi-
ate vicinity.
The news from Salerno at the head
of the Gulf of Salerno, thirty miles
southeast Of Naples, is to the effect
that the shock was distinct there and
caused considerable damage. De-
tails are lacking.
The shock was felt for ten seconds
in the provinces of Avellino and
Catanzaro. It was felt strongly but
for a shorter period at Cozenza
Paola, Reggie, Potenza, Benevento
Capua and Melf. 1t is said, however
that the damage in these towns was
not serious and there was no loss OF
life.

Avllllno, Compartment of Cam
pania. Italy. June THE province
OF Avillino bore the brunt of the
severe earthquake that was felt
throughout southern Italy shortly be-
fore dawn today. Fatalities occurred
and much damage was done to prop
erty but up to noon it was impossible
to determine the extent of the devas-
tation. In this city little harm was
done and the only death reported was
that of an old man who died of fright,
The population. however, was terror
stricken. Reports from the villages
throughout the province are much
more grave. Twenty people are re-
ported killed at Calitri, which is said
to have been badly damaged. The sit
uation there is distressing.
Ten persons are said to have met
death at San Sossio. where the sui
phur waters, with which the district
is rich, were released from their
bounds by the disturbance and flooded
the vicinity. From the flood noxious
gases arose. At Chianche a house
fell burying and killing an aged man.
One person was killed and several
were injured at Castel Baronia. Gala
brit too was much damaged.
