WANTS HIS OLD JOB BACK.

Marshal Collins, the former terror OF

the Conduit road, and who would tackle
q diplomat with as much nonchalancc

Cannon, is thinking of going back to the
old Job at Glen Echo. He said today

road as the Conduit road, entices Wash

In the old days Marshal Collins knew
no such word as fear. He arrested the
Duke of the Abruzzi and the Italian am
bassador, Baron Mayor des Planches, for
exceeding the speed limits. He said to-
day that he was sorry to learn that
the Baron was going back to Italy Or
some other foreign post, for he bore the

to have the Secretary Of State do some.

Collins. THE ambassador was very cor

arrest"

Collins said today:

IB|RDG@7 rs DISEASE

Late estimates on the percentage OF reeov-
cries under the new emollient treatment fos
Bright's Disease are as follows:
Where patient is much weakened and crises
may be expected in from five to ten days. prob
ably not more than 1870 to 20co recover. Where
physicians aid with efforts to restrain fatal
symptoms this percentage is increased. In cases
where patients have from thirty to sixty days
Of life the efficiency is very much higher.
Where patients do not wait until bed-ridden
probably three-fourths yield.
And in cases that take the new emollient
treatment on the appearance OF the disease nearly
nine out of ten respond. The point Is that the
Renal Inflammation should be attacked before
the heart and physical system are broken down.

Pardon Was Refused.

When the case was considered for par
don the district attorney who prosecuted
Wilton was at first opposed to any
mercy being shown him. but later he
made further investigation and declared
that he thought Whitton had been pun
ished sufficiently. The case was brought
up before the state board Of pardons, but
the friends of the deputy sheriff who had
been killed protested so vigorously that
the members of the board stood divided
and the decision was left to the gov
ernor Gov. Norris decided not to pardon
Whitton, but as there is a provision In
the Montana law by which prisoner
can be paroled after he has served por-
ton of his sentence, and as Wilton
has now served the required portion Of his
time, he will be released on parole as
soon as his friends convince the governor
and the members of the board OF pardons
that Wilton will be supplied with suffi-
cient funds to get to his sister in WASH
ington.

Increasing Beef Prices.

Increasing Beef Prices.
The figures that the Secretary Of Agri-
culture has collected thus far show that
January I, 1909. the price Of beef was
22.6 per cent higher than the average
level Of price in the five years from 1896
TO 1900, inclusive. The price that the
farmer got for his cows before they were
fattened was only a trif1e higher than the
average price he had received in the 1885,
1860 period. The increase in price that he
got for his cattle fattened on corn was
not equal to the rise in the price OF corn.
From this the Secretary decided that the
farmer was not getting all that was COM
ing to him.
The increase in the retail price of meat.
according to the departments informa-
ton, also has been much greater rela-
lively than the increase In the wholesale
price. When the packer has raised on
the retailer the retailer has passed the
raise along to the consumer, with a lit
tie more tackled on for good measure.
Plenty Of Cattle.
The increase in the number of farm ami
mails used for food has been greater in
the last year than ever before. ami
greater. too, in proportion to the increase
in the population. This will be shown by
statistics of the Department Of Agricul.
ture which Secretary Wilson expects to
make public early this week.
The figures will confirm information
coming from various sections of the
country that there is unprecedented pros.
perity in the animal industry of the
country. They promise to show that

GETTING DATA ON BEEF
SECRETARY WILSON RECEIVES
REPORTS FROM HIS AGENTS.
Satisfied That the Farmer Is Not
Receiving Big Profts-Farm
Acreage Falls Behind.
STRICTLY
RELIABLE
Qt ALIT1ES.

Secretary Wilson of the Department of
Agriculture has had his men at work all
over the country collecting information,
and he already has formed some pretty
definite conclusions. which he has ex-
pressed off and on, recently. The Secre-
tary already is satisfied that the farmer
Is not getting the exorbitant profits out of
the beef that he raises, and it is said
that bulletin will be issued by the De-
partment of Agriculture setting forth the
fact.
The Secretary OF Agriculture has little
doubt that the excessive profits on other
farm products. also. are going into some
body else's pockets.
Farm Acreage Falls Behind.
In the Secretary's opinion, there is
some excuse for a certain increase in the
cost of living, because the farm area has
not been keeping pace with the increase
In population. but this condition does not
explain the present prices.
One cause of high prices, as the Depart.
ment of Agriculture views the situation
is the decline of the neighborhood farmer
Fifteen or twenty years ago farmers liv'
ing near small cities used to have their
family customers. The families arranged
regularly with the farmers for their sup.
ply Of pork, butter eggs. fruits. vegeta
bles potatoes and sometimes lamb and
other meats. The neighborhood farmer
began his decline with the appearance OF
the refrigerator cars

cases, because the federal government
is expected, without burden on the COM
munities interested. to expepd its money
for river and harbor improvements, while
the communities themselves show no
disposition to cooperate, and, in a meas
ure, nullify the benefits secured by the
large federal expenditures"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-01-24

the hard competition of the refrigerator
business, and the big ones took to dis
posing Of their products only to the COM
mission men or shippers. Thus cities that
formerly supplied their demand with bone
grown products now depend absolutely
upon products shipped in refrigerator
cars.

Under Separate Heads.

The conclusions of the report are placed
under nine distinct heads, as follows:
First. the reasons for decline in inland
waterway transportation. together with
suggested remedies therefor and the re-
transportation: second canals, including
especially the advisability and practical
value OF canals for deep-draft vessels:
third, the necessary steps to be taken be-
fore the adoption Of projects for the i'm
provement ofrivers and harbors, and the
method making appropriations therefor:
fourth. the proper division between an
preparations by the federal government
on the one hand and the states. minor
political divisions and individuals on the
other; fifth, the relation Of waterway i'm
provements to bank protection, flood and
drought prevention. irrigation and drain
age; sixth, the most desirable policy re-
lating to harbors, including the ownership
and control OF wharves and docks: sew

ments to waterpower; eighth. methods for
the Improvement of rivers including fhe
construction of locks and dams: ninth
comparison of European waterways with
those OF the United States, Including an
investigation Of European and American
transportation rates both by land and
by water.
Discussing the causes Of the decrease of
water transportation in the United States
in recent years, the commission consid-
ers at length the relations between water
and railway lines. 1t is extremely de-
sirable, the report declares, that there
should be an abundance Of transportation
facilities, by water as we'll as by rail:
and the fact that in years of large crops
or unusual prosperity the railways have
been unable to handle efficiently the vol
ume Of business Is cited as an additional
argument for the development of water
routes

tition. AS to the remedy for this condi-

tition. AS to the remedy for this condi-
ton the report says:
THE commission would recommend that
in such cases where rate is once re-
duced by a railway 1t should not be per-
mitted to raise the same, unless, AFTER
hearing by the interstate commerce CON-
mission or other competent pody, IL
should be found that such proposed IN
crease rests upon changed conoitlons
other than the elimination or decrease OF
water competition. A majority OF the
commission would recommend giving the
mower to the interstate commerce commas
sion to prescribe minimum railroad rates
whenever. in its opinion. the OBJECT OF z
railroad in reducing rates Is 10 oestroy
waterway competition. -.
In the past, the commission iouno, tne

Rights Of Railways.

The railways have a right, the report
points out, to charge lower rates between
points where their lines are In competi-
ton with water routes. The cutting of
rates where water competition exists. 1t
is stated, has been carried to an almost
unlimited extent" And the railroads
have been very active in acquiring water
lines. with the object of sitting compe-

Larger cooperation between the federal
government and minor political divisions
in financing improvements is also urged
strongly.
1.-THE commission finds that in the

SCALE" the report says. 'the decidid tend
ency in other countries Is toward q de-
gree of participation Of communities and
localities especially benefited. and is Of
the opinion that in order to obtain the
best results this policy must ultimately
be adopted in our own country. In the
meantime. it is desirable to encourage
participation by communities whenever
their proposed Improvements are worthy
of recognition by the federal government.
TT has been brought to the attention
of the commission that in some instances
heavy burdens have been laid upon traf-
fic by exorbitant charges for the privi-
lege Of mooring at wharves owned by
municipalities or private individuals.
