Taft Has Tilt
With Tillman
President and Senator Clash in Good
Natured Discussion of the
Army.

WASHINGTON, Jam. 23.-President Taft
and Senator Tillman clashed in a good
natured discussion of the merits of the per-
sonnet of the army in Cuba and in the
Philippines tonight at the annual banquet
of the Military Order of the Caraboa.
TIT dinner was a private affair and the
army men and their guests were loath to-
discuss just what was said, but 1t was
learned that the South Carolina senator
spoke In a characteristic vein and made
some pointed criticisms of the army. He
realized, as he told the president after
wards, that he was touching Mr.. Taft on
a sore spot and the president seemed to
understand hat he was just doing it for
the purpose of stirring him up" for he
said so in his reply, and while vigorously
defending the army. he passed off the whole
matter as a joke.
President Taft in his address said:
my friend, the distinguished senator from
South Carolina, l ave known well, have
been glad to know, have been honored by
his friendship, and l wan to assure you
that he is a good deal better fellow thar
you sometimes think, from what he says,
He is not always one who sits and talks
thinking about the race question and mis-.
cegenation and amalgamation and that sorI
of thing. He does have other thoughts
but when he gets on his, feet and starts
on that slippery subject It ,requlres a good
deal Of force, or a good deal Of poise, &c
keep him from going further than he really
wanted to go himself.
"He says that we are going to anne5
Cuba. Well. l don't think so. He thinks
that because the Cubans have a race ques.
ton we nave got to mix their race ques.
ton with our race question and have q
sort of mixup, with sulphur rising from IL
that is going to consume the world.
don't believe hat 1 dom believe the
senator does. except as these words roll
from his lips. and they have rolled from
his lips now since 1899 on the senate floor
and from the stump. They have never
accomplished anything in the election and
yet he cannot get over it,"

ARRESTS ARE EXPECTED SOON
Two Hundred Men Are SURROUNDING
Alleged Rendezvous of Train
RObbers-Only Three Men
In Gang.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. S.-officials who are
leading the pursuit OF the outlaws who
held up and robbed a Missouri! Pacific train
near Eureka Mo-, last night announced
late tonight that they have obtained a
admission from a young woman living near
the scene OF the robbery that her sweet
heart was one Of the robbers.
She also is reported as having disclosed
the hiding place of the men. in a remote
section Of st. Louis county.
The 200 men in the posses pursuing the
bandits are now surrounding the supposed
hiding place and expect to land their quarry
there.
A close watch is being kept TN this city,
however, as 1t is known that the men
started toward st. Louis Immediately after
the holdup.
The officials also announced tonight that
a farmer who witnessed the holdup from
the roadside says there were but three men
in the gang, and not four, as persons on the
train claim.
Earlier clewss which developed in the
search for the men. who It is believed
obtained $4,000 by cutting open sixteen
mail pouches, show a boat in which the
bandits may have floated down the Mera-
mec river to a point convenient to st. Louis,
was stolen Friday night a few miles from
the scene OF the robbery, and the blood
hounds took up a trail which led towards
this city. The theory was advanced the
robbers may have used an automobile in
escaping with their booty. One of the men
was an experienced railroad engineer. The
local police are looking for this man. as
his description is known.
Rewards aggregating $500 were offered
today for tho arrest and conviction of the
outlaws. Governor Hadley offered the
ma ximum which the state allows, $500 for
zach man, the Missouri Pacific railway
$500 for each man and the United States
postoffice inspection department $1,000 for
the taking of the men dead or alive.
Postoffice Inspector w. w. Dickson an
nounced the loot of the bandits may amount
to 500 % A check on the registered mail
pouches was in progress tonight. but 1t is
uncertain when the amount stolen will be
known definitely.
A man was arrested In the city today as
a suspect. He denied being implicated, in
the robbery.
The safe in the express car, which the
robbers failed 20 open, contained 800 in

United States Yards Capture Two Big
Contracts in Competition with
European Yards.

WASHINGTON, Jan 23.-Unlted States
shipyards have won a notable victory
against their European competitors in Sc
curing the contracts for the building of
two battleships of the "Dreadnought'
type for the Argentine government. This
victory, however, came through the direct
and unceasing efforts of the State depart
ment, acting through the lately established
Latin-American bureau.
From a commercial standpoint the sue
cess of the department in securing these
contracts is Of the highest consequence,
and is said to establish the fact that little
credence can be placed in the published
reports to the effect that the attitude of
the United States toward Nicaragua has
cost this government the friendship Of TIM
South and Central Americ- n states.
The matter had been In active negotia-
tons during the last nine months and the
diture in the United States for these
two ships of a total of $22, O00,0 900. Tho
contract is given into the Fore River COM
pany, with permission TO build one Of the
ships in the New York shipbuilding COM
pany's yards. This is the first contract
of magnitude that has ever been made by
a South American government with AMER

will be of $4,000 tons Of twenty-five and
one-half knots speed, with ~twelve-tnch
