RECOMMEND GIVING
TROLLEY FRANCHISE
sutter Street Line May Extend Elec-
trlcal System Along Market
Street to the Ferry
Building

SAN FRANCISCO, March 9.-Despite
the protest of several labor leaders
and representatives of other organiza-
tions. four of the five members of the
public utilities committee of the board
of supervisors voted today to recon-
mend to the board that the Sutter
Street Railway company and the
United Railroads be granted permis-
sion to extend the Sutter street over
head trolley system along Market
street from Sansome to the Ferry
building.
The United Railroads had not ap-
piled for a franchise. There is nothing
i'm the report of the committee grant
ing the Geary street railroad, recently
acquired by the city in a bond cleo
ton. the privilege of operating over
the track, although this proposition
had been considered the only means OF
securing the grant. No consideration
is asked for the franchise. Before the
Inauguration Of the present board
there had been $1,000 year offered for
the privilege.
The four supervisors voting in favor
of the drafting Of the franchise are
members of the Union Labor party,
and they were attacked as traitors TO
their cause by Andrew j. Gallagher,
secretary of the San Francisco labor
council, with whom they had heated
argument in the meeting room.
The matter has been referred to the
CITY attorney for the drafting of an
ordinance.

HOBSON AMENDMENT
ROUSfS PAYNE'S IRE
CONGRESSMAN Declares Alabaman's
Scheme to Build State Roads
Would Bankrupt the
United States

WASHINGTON, March 9.-Con-
structing of roads by convict labor
was discussed in the house today IN
connection with a bill providing for a
military highway between Fort LeaV-
enworth and Fort Riley, Kansas, to be
built by labor from the military prison
at Fort LeavenwOrth. Opposition was
EXPRESSED to having the government
take part in the building OF any state
roads.
Representative Hobson of Alabama
introduced an amendment providing
for a division of the cost of roads be-
tween the government and the states
when declared necessary by the secre-
tary of war.
MIR. Payne of New York, the Re
uublican floor leader, suggested that
This plan to build roads all over the
United States was comparable only to
tba Alabaman's contention for a
greater navy. He declared that 1t
would bankrupt the United states 10
enter on such policy
INV amendment provides that the
United States shall pay but one-haIt'
suggested Mr.. Hobson.
f@Ten Der cent of it would cost more
than your war with Japan would cost
in a thousand years" shouted MI
PAYNE. Mr Hobson merely smiled III
reply. A.. -,
"Deliver the country from the i'm
agination of the gentleman VINO comes
here from Alabama" concluded MI
Payne. -,

ROOT OPPOSED
BY WOODRUFF
NEW YORK REPUBLICANS IN A
BITTER FIGHT
INDICATIONS POINT TO DEAD
LOCK ON LEADERSHIP
Gov. Hughes and Sen. Root, Backed
by Administration at Washing
ton, Against Some Old
Time Party Chiefs
Associated Press1

ALBANY, N. Y, March 9.-Timothy
L. Woodruff, chairman of the Republic
can state committee, arrived here to-
night and took charge of the fight
against the effort of Senator Root to
whip Republican senators into line for
the election of Roots candidate for
senate majority leader.
Woodruff's hasty journey TO Albany
proved the Republican Organization has
real battle on hand, and judging
from the defiant attitude of his ad-
herents, those who stand ready TO obey
the wishes of Root and of Governor
Hughes will have difficulty in electing
Senator Harvey d. Hinman of Bing-
hamton president pro TEN at the eau
Gus tomorrow.
The situation tonight resolved itself
into Woodruff and Barnes, with such
of the old party leaders as still control
their own counties, against Root and
Hughes, backed by the administration
at Washington.
Indications tonight were that no cam
didate would have enough votes in the
caucus to assure election, and the eau
Gus might adjourn again without nam
ing a new leader.
According to the claims of the three
camps, Republican senator's now stand
as follows
For Cobb, 10; for Hinman, 10; for
Davis, A. doubtful, 1; necessary for
election, II.
The Republican situation in the past
twenty-four hours has undergone SO
swift a change that the most expert
enced politicians confess themselves at
sea. If a majority of the Republican
senators openly defy Root 1t is evident
the party will face q split of unprece-
dented dimensions.
Cobb's friends declare tonight that
Root was misled and that he never
would have tried to assert his author
ity so publicly unless he had believed
that word from him would settle the
situation.
"They gold bricked him, that's all,
said one of the recalcitrants.
If Roots leadership Is disowned,
some Republicans declared tonight that
nothing but the return of Theodore
Roosevelt could cement the party in
time to present an unbrokep front to
the enemy at the next state eelction.
The present disagreement is the first
test Of Senator Roots power.

HIGH COST PROBE
IS WORLDWIDE
Becomes Evasve When Asked to
Explain How He Accumulated
$4,000 in Fifteen
Years
Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, March 9.-Inquiry
into the high cost of living was re-
sumed today by the senate committee,
which examined Edward +. Hall, who
conducts a local grocery and meat
market. He said the biggest jump IN
meat prices he had ever known was
in the last two years.
Hall said he figured on gross proft
of Is per cent, but was satisfied with
a net profit of 8 per cent This caused
Senator Smoot to inquire:
"Then how is it you have accumu-
lated $S5, 900 in fifteen years|'
The reply of Hall was somewhat eva
sive, but the point was not pressed.
Hall said that Elgin creamery but
ter was standard and that the butter
price was fixed at Elgin.
Senator Lodge has discovered that
there was a time in the past when
prices were unusually high. The fact
came to him through an old document
of the twenty-fourth congress. The pa
per was accompanied by a private
memorandum of expenses kept by a
clerk, which showed that the price of
sugar was IA cents a pound at that
time, flour $S a barrel and illuminating
oil 81 per gallon. On the other hand,
labor was paid only IS cents a day.
TRANSPORTATION cost 10 cents mile,
whereas it is now cents, said SEN
ator Bacon. Conditions are entirely
different"
The date of the document was 1886.
1t costs less to feed the navy on the
Chinese coast than at any other por-
ton of the globe, according TO figures
transmitted to the house today by Sec
retary Meyer in response to a resolu-
tion calling for the prices paid for
foodstuffs at home and in foreign ports
during 1909
Fresh beef was cents a pound at
Che Foo and Is cents at Gibraltar, 6
cents at Key West and 10 cents at
Pensacola, 81-2 cents at New York,
more than z cents at Boston, Wash
ington and San Francisco, to 10 cents
in Japan, 8 cents in Constantinople
and from 12 to ID cents in Panama.
Chicken was IA to 25 cents at home
and 9 to q cents abroad; eggs cost
from to cents a dozen at Chinese
ports, but in the United States they
were lowest at Washington, at %
cents, and highest at Charleston, S. c.,
at "a cents, with Port Lima at 55 cents,
the highest abroad.
Ice, running from Is to 80 cents per
100 pounds at home, ranged from 20 to
SO cents abroad.

astrous avalanche at Rogers pass, re-

PROOFS UNANIMOUSLY TERMED
INSUFFICIENT
Representative Macon, Conspicuous
Among the Skeptios, Points to
Discrepancy and 'Astonish-
Ing Part of the Account

WASHINGTON, March BY prac-
tieally unanimous vote the subcom-
mttee of the house naval committee
today decided against bestoWing any
reward on Commander Robert E. Peary
until he furnished further proofs that
he discovered the north pole.
Il confess that l am exceedingly
skeptical about Mr.. Peary's ever hav-
ing discovered the pole" declared Mr..
Macon today before the committee,
"and l am going to protest against any
honors being conferred upon him by
congress until he has established be-
yond a reasonable doubt that he did
discover il. and it must be established
in the open and not in the dark"
He expressed himself as being I'm
dignant at the thought of being called
upon as a representative of the Amer
lean people to confer a high honor upon
any one of it's citizens in the dark
All legislation by congress, he said.
"ought to be open and above board
Contradictory
MIR. Macon said he wanted to direct
attention to one discrepancy in Mr..
Peary's story" This was the speed
which the explorer said he made from
the time Captain Bartlett left him
until he reached the pole. Peary said
that for five days he made 26.4 miles a
day. but Mr.. Macon said this appeared
very singular in view of the fact that
the Peary party had made but S06
miles a day up to the time Bartlett
left.
"The astonishing part Of Mr.. Peary's
statement" said Mr. Macon, "is the
astonishing number Of miles he trav--
eled a day after Bartlett left him and
when no white man was with him as
witness, his only companion being his
negro valet and four Eskimos.
"His greatest marches, singularly'
were all north Of the Bartlett camp.
Increases Speed
From that time forward going to the
pole and returning to Cape Columbia.
he claims to have made an average of
26.4 miles a day until he reached the
pole, A miles a day on his way back
from the pole to Bartlett's camp ana
282 miles day from Bartletts camp
to Cane Columbia.
1.-THE greatest speed he had made be-
fore Bartlett left him was 600 miles a
day. so Peary must have made nearly
three times as great speed after Bart
lett left him as he did before, IN order
to reach the pole
Mr. Macon declared that Pearys own
statements showed he equaled this
sneed hut twice before in the entire
Journey to the pole. The first day he
Started from land he made 26 miles
and on another day made 20 miles IN
twenty-four hours of forced march
(which Mr. Peary has told us was
about the limit of human endurance.
Representative Englebright of cali
fornia did not vote TO defer action. He
said he was convinced Peary had dis
covered the pole and that the commit
tee had sufficient proofs before it.
