ended here today and he left tonight
for Washington.
1t remained for St. Louis to give
Mr.. Taft the heartiest demonstration
of his present journey. The city was
gaily decorated and there were cheer

was stopped to receive boquets of
flowers. These, Mr.. Taft later sent to
St. Luke's hospital and the home of
incurables.
The apparent warmth Of the recep'

him amid deafening applause, for his

New York, May 4.-Harry Levin

selling young girls into lives OF
shame, told the district attorney to-
day that there are at least three
"stockades'' in New York, in each of
which from five to ten young girls
are kept ready night and day for in
stant delivery wherever they may be
wanted. His counsel was with him
during the interview and confirmed
it tonight.
Little effort, said Levenson, is
made to recruit women of the
streets The stockades are filled
from the host of young girls who
are unhappy at home, or who live
narrow lives on their own earnings
and long for leisure, good clothes,
gaiety and freedom from restraint.
Well dressed women make it busi-
ness to frequent cheap restaurants,
moving picture theatres, sentimental
matinees and the bargain counters

The company remained standing
while the ex-president responded as
follows:
1T is a great pleasure for me to

ception. Norwegians have made such

RAILROAD BILL
NOT Considered
SENATE AND HOUSE GIVE THEIR
ATTENTION TO OTHER
THINGS.
Appropriation Of $155,00 10000 Was
Made for Pensions - Method of the
Department Of Justice In DEALING
With Cotton Pools Is Criticised BY
Simmons
BY Associated Press, }

Washington, May 4.-Abandoning
for the time all railroad legislation,
the senate and house today were oc-
cupied with other bills on their cal
en- dars. This course was followed
because in the senate no one was
prepared to discuss the railroad
measure, while in the house the
rules made mandatory the consid-
Grafton of other bills on the calen-
dar.
Among the bills passed was one
appropriating $155 200, 900 for pen
sions. Other measures passed modi-
fed the laws relating to money or
ders and registered letters and au-
thorized the naturalization of aliens
who serve in the army.
Senator Simmons delivered
speech condemning the method of
the department of justice in it's
prosecution of cotton pools.
The entire session of the house
was devoted to the consideration of
bills relating to Indian lands.

This evening the king and queen

two hundred of the most eminent

the guests stood up. The king said:

welt, here, in the name of the queen

have been able to come to Norway.

Ajdrjch the Leader,

To Senator Aldrich was given the
leadership of the new movement He
! left late today for Rhode Island and
will not return before Tuesday. The
plan is meanwhile to mark time" and
! endeavor to hold the fort.
While there will be many conference
es at the White House and elsewhere
! the details of the militant plan will be
perfected.
The intention is to avoid test votes
on any subject of Importance until
next week.
Breach is Widening.
Every hour brings additional evil
dence of widening breach between the
| regulars and insurgents in both the
houses. Conservative republican
leaders, with hardly an exception, con-
fess that neither is there at present
a corehent majority. Even those un-
familiar as yet with the plans of the
new senate organization, seem to be
awaiting the return of President Taft
to Washington to see what. if any
thing, he can and will do to induce
or compel action sufficiently harmon
iOus to get at least some remnant of
his program through congress. AS
the matter stands tonight, the pros
pect from republican point of view,
is anything but alluring.
+ Fight Started Last Session.
The situation has developed almost
without halt from the beginning of the
last session when the warfare began
in the house over the speakership and
the adoption of rules. Some locate
the beginning of the split as far back
as the Fifty-ninth congress, and trace
it ~own to the suddenly widening
break of last years tariff session when
there has been little semblance of
harmony on the majority side, espec-
tally of the house.
Republicans Unable to Agree.
The direct and immediate cause of
danger to the legislative program is
that two factions in the Republican
party have been unable to get togeth-
er upon the details of the proposed
|: egislation. Both sides agree that :
this is the case; but each side blames
the other. Te insurgents say that the
fault lies in the arrogance and intol-
erance of long time leaders of the ma
jority toward the progressive policies
represented by most of the republi-
cans of the middle west.
The regulars charge with bitter re-
sentiment that the insurgents are simp-
ly trying to destroy the republican
party by attempting to discedit it's

chaos so far as concerns any cohor
'ent policy in regard to the admins
tration's legislative program.
Aldrichs' Straight Talk.
Senator Aldrich called the regular
republicans together and confronted
possible political effect of their ap
parent defeat at the hands of the lin
surgent" republicans and the demo
Gratis in the fight over the traffic
agreement section of the administra
tion railroad bill. He asked his as.

binatiOn. Any such surrender, he
warned them, meant the failure of
the Taft policies and the downfall of
conservative control, not only in con-
gress but in the republican party gen.
orally.
TAFT Policies In Danger.
Some one reminded Senator Aid
rich that the senators then and there
gathered together were not in agree
ment in all points, whereupon he re-
piled that they must get together and
let the details be secondary. Other
wise, he said, congress would adjourn
without q single item of Taft program
accomplished. The entire tone of
this conference was belligerent to-
ward the insurgents.
Taft Sympathetic.
This was the dominate: LET US
get together and stand as a unit as
against every insurgent proposition.
If the insurgents propose anything
good, we'll take it over bodily and
put it through as our own; but if they
propose anything bad, We'll stamp it
out"
1t was stated without reservation
that President Taft had been kept
fully advised of the situation and was
entirely in sympathy with the plan,
and virtually pledged to it. It was
said in behalf of the conference that
while the measures which would be
1esorted to were historic they were
necessary in defense of the admins
tration and the integrity of the Ee-
publican party.
