 THE MORSE CASE
Ex-Governor and Martin Little ton Prepare for HabeaS
 Corpus.

Atlanta, April 1.-Ffna1 preparations have been begun for the fight in the Federal courts to restore Charles w. Morse to freedom.
 Ex-Gov HoIe Smith has been re- tained to assist Martin w. Litte1ton in conducting the case for Morse, and the two were in conference all day. Closeted with them was Walter Reid, the Boston man who has practically deserted his own business to assist Morse.
 After the conference Littleton an nouneed that the legal papers incident to an application for a writ of habeas corpus were being drawn and that as soon as completed they would be fi1- ed. Iittleton thought the papers would be before United States Judge New man by next Monday.
 MT. Reid says that 500 employees of the steamship line formerly controlled by Morse have each offered to con tribute one or more days pay to aid Mofse'S fight.

him to become entirely familiar with the whole situation
 Henry Allen of Kansas is quoted by Ray Stannard Baker as saying:
 Theodore Roosevelt will return from his big hunt. He will land in San Francisco, and say that he re- tains all his old admiration for Will liam H. Taft-but. At Los Angeles he will say that he would not under take to criticise his successor, thing he could not gracefully do. He will then add, 1T have always had faith in the good intentions of MT. Taft; At Denver the Rough Rider will de- clare that unless the President is careful about the company he keeps he will be misjudged. At Chicago he will regret that the President has not been more careful. At New York he will tell us that the money changers should be driven from the temple. After that it will not make any diff ference what anyone else says.

Ray Stannard Baker tells in the A nnerfean Magazine an amusing and somewhat significant anecdote of Rooseve1t:
 Not long before his administration closed Congressman Gardner, of Mas sachusetts, headed a small committee 10 see hEr. Roosevelt and ask him if he could not help the Progressives in their fight on the Cannon rules in the House. Congressman Gardner is a sOFl-in-Iaw of Senator Lodge. The President said to him:
 ssEsardners you and I are in much the same position. Your father-in- law and my son-in-lsLw don't approve Of us radicals"
 ssus radicals s's--tlae cf1arac acterization has since changed. They now call themselves eProgressives, but the gmneraI Iy-used characterization now isV eI1lsurgents'' Whether the Ex- President will, upon his return, still class himself as 8 radical, does not yet appear. He has authorized the sE3utlook Publishing Co.," to an- nounce that The not only is not ex- pressing any opinion concerning 4 Assaerzean politics but he is not even for1ning any in his own mind. and will refrain from doing even the lat fer until sufficient time has elapsed af kqf fiis return to America to enable

Senators Bulkeley and Brandegee took especial pains, 1t is said. to identify themselves with the cause of Speaker Cannon when he was re- Buked by the Democratic-l lnsurgent cp1nbina ton in the House, by con fioiing with him. It was a very 1n-

GAIN S5OO.OOO BY ANNUAL PASSENGER
 RATE INCREASE
Public Will More Than Pay For Wage Increases on New
 Haven Road.

New Haven, April 1.-The increase in passenger rates already announced Hartford railroad, will not alone counterbalance the half million dol lar yearly increase in wages to it's conductors and trainmen, but will add neat figure to the treasury, ac- cording to careful figures made out by men conversant with the pas
 No one knows just how much it's general proposed increase will amount to in the passenger field, but the fig ures between states will have to be submitted to the Interstate Commerce Commission at Washington at once for sanction, as there must be 30 days, notice in order to have them take effect on May 1, as planned. Meantime the right of appeal against them exists.
 On a calculation based upon the advance in fares on it's through pas senger traffic it is seen that the pres ent push up will amount to enough increase which has been promised to the trainmen.
 For instance, there are about 15 passenger trains each way per day ton, and on these trains it is claimed by expert men in the employ of the least 5000 .sthrougI.' persons would be affected by the increase in the rate of tickets from $4.65 to SAYS, matter of 10 cents per capita This would be equivalent to an increase of $500 a day, and for the seven days in the week it would amount to $3,- 800. Tn addition to this there is the increase of five cents on each fare. between New Haven and New Lon don, the increase of five cents be- tween New Haven and Providence, the increase of five cents on the main line between Providence and Boston, and other increases on local lines which affect the through rate.
 It is estimated that the increase on this latter class of tickets would amount to at least $3,500 more per week, which with the additional in come to be raised from such tribu- tary feeders as come into this main line travel from the Berkshire valley, from Hartford, from New Londonss back country, and from the suburban trains in eastern Massachusetts, would readily place the roads increased weekly income from this source alone to S10,00O week.
 Now this increase of $10, 900 a week would amount to $520,000 a year, in round figures, or more than the cost that the road has undertak- en in granting the conductors and trainsmen's demands.
