DEMOCRATS TAKE A HAND

While progress was made this morning
in the Senate toward it's investigation Of
the cost of living and wages in the United
States during the last ten years. lively
row was stirred up because of the inter-
lection OF the tariff into a discussion of
the matter.
The significant act in the Senate today
was the statement of Senator Aldrich,
chairman of the finance committee which
framed the tariff bill, and head conferee
for the Senate when the bill was finally
drafted in conference, that he was not
disposed in any way to dodge the ques-
ton as to the effect of the tariff on the
cost of living.
THE investigation can be made as
broad as possible he remarked
The progress toward the investigate ion
was marked by the reporting favorably
from the Senate finance committee of the
resolution, with minor amendments, in
troduced by Senator Lodge Yesterday,
providing for an investigation by select
committee of FIVE senators, TO be ap-
pointed by the Vice President. Upon his
request the resolution was referred to the
committee to audit the contingent ex-
penses OF the Senate, that being neces-
sary, as the cost Of the inquiry is to be
paid from the contingent expenses.

Passed as Legitimate.

inEton they passed as my legitimate chill
dren. but everybody knew that they
were illegitmate."
It was at the conclusion of the reading
of this deposition that Sir Edward an
nounced his Withdra wal.
When court reconvened the petitioner
announced that he desired to plead his
own case, adding: Il know that l shall
lose, but l will have good try There

Puts It Up to Majority.

Senator Bailey asked the Senator from
West Virginia to specify, when referring
to the attitude of the finance committee
to the tariff, the majority of the com
mittee.''
Senator Lodge declared that there was
no disposition to dodge the tariff question
Senator Elkins replied. however, that
such sentiments had crept into the press
over night.
(which will you believe. the press OF
the senator from Massachusetts asked
Senator Bailey. Without hesitation Sena-
tor Elkins replied that he did not care to
pass judgment at once.
Continuing the reading of his resolution
Senator Ellins pointed out that it called
for determination of the question
whether or not the cost of living had been
increased by monopolies, trusts or COM
binations OF trade.
Senator Aldrich Interrupted at that
point. He declared that the resolution, at
it came from the finance committee. was
more comprehensive than that of Senator
Elkins.
There is no disposition on my part to
dodge this investigation commented the
senator from Rhode Island.

Wished Him to Retire.

Should Sir John Bigham refuse, / wish
you to retire from the case, as l do not
care to go on further with such an unfair
trial"
Sir Edward explained that he was not
prepared to apply for an adjournment. as
he could not say that the Spanish docu-
ments referred to were material to his
case. Accordingly he would withdraw.
The petitioners junior counsel followed
suit, and President Bigham suspended the
sitting for one hour to allow the claim
ant opportunity to consider the situation.
The action is defended by the present
Lord Sackville. a nephew of the former
British minister to the United States.
Among the dispositions offered when court
opened was a statement by the diplomat,
in which he said:
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-02-03
Started by Mr.. Elkins.

The reference was made without discus
sion; but a few minutes afterward SEN
ator Stone asked Senator Elkins what
had become of the resolution which. the
senator from West Virginia had intro
duced about month ago providing for
an investigation of the cost Of living.
Senator Elkins replied that it was sleep
ing in the committee to audit the contin-
gent expenses of the Senate. He COM
mented on the delay which his resolution
had encountered and the speed with
which the resolution of Senator Lodge
had been rushed through the committee
on finance.
1t doesn't take long for things to move
he said. when the senator from Rhode
Island, Mr.. Aldrich, is here.
Senator Elkins declared that the Lodge
resolution omitted some material things
which his resolution covers as matters
to be investigated. Reading from his
resolution, he pointed out that it called
for an inquiry to determine, among other
things, whether there had been an in
crease of prices due to any legislation of
Congress.
THAT means the tariff" he commented.
"Why does the finance committee seem to
dodge that question? / am tariff man.
a protectionist. and l am not afraid to
meet that question"
LAS amended by the finance committee,
the resolution covers that point" remark
ed Senator Lodge.

Octopus Being Exhibited.

!. A fish exhibit has been set up
opposite the postofice on the old
Pioneer corner which contains
some interesting specimens. The
feature of the exhibits a large devil
fish caght in Puget Sound. The
specimen is pronounced genuine by
those who have seen the fish alive.
It is seldom that inland students
have a chance to see real octupus
and many are visiting Mr.. Harris
tent.
Mr.. Harris also has a strange
specimen which he says comes from
India. It has the body of fish
about the size of a large pike, and
has head like monkey, and two
large claws in place of the monkeys
hands. It is called Mermaid"
Some Norwegians who saw the
exhibit yesterday said that they re-
member their fathers telling of
catching such beast in Indian
waters years ago.
Other specimens in the exhibit are
a balloon fish, large star fish, and
several cases Of strange sea weeds.
