INTEND KEEPING AT WORK

"insuraent" Senators Declare They
Are Serious About Legislation and
Propose to Keep at 1t Until They
Get Their Views Before the People.
List of Regulars" Who Have
Agreed to Stand Together.
Washington, May 6.-The last pre-
rogative of the majority has been
usurped by the senate progressives-
the power to adjourn. A New Eng
land senator who is a member of the
steering committee advised Senator
Aldrich and his colleagues to adjourn
the present Session as soon as the
proper preliminary steps could be
taken.
He said that in spite of railroad bill
truces and publications to the effect
that the regulars have secured a ma
jority of senate pledges on the bill
there was no Republican majority
either in the senate or house and that
nothing could possibly be accom-
plished this session.
When the progressives were ac-
quainted with this proposal, however,
they declined to permit congress to
adjourn. To those who have for years
waited for Senator Aldrich and Rep
| resentative Payne to announce the
| precise date of adjournment this re-
fusal of the progressives is a shatter-
| ing of tradition.
The progressiYes said that they
were serious about legislation and
| that no matter what was accomplished
this session they were going to work
| as long as it was necessary to present
| the views of the Middle West on rail-
| ways, conservation, postal savings
bank and federal court injunctions.
Conservatives Get Together.
The forty-fve Republican conserva-
tives who have undertaken to stand
| together to establish firm control of
| the senate proceedings and put
|! through what remains of the admins
tration programme are:
| Aldrich, Bradley, Brandegee, Briggs
| Bulkeley, Burnham, Burrows, Burton
Carter, Clark (Wyo.), Crane, Cullom
Curtis, Depew, Dick, Dillingham;, Du
Pont, Elkins, Flint. Frye, Gallinger
Guggenheim, Hale, Hepburn, Jones
Kean, Lodge, Lorimer, McCumber
Nixon, Oliver Page, Penrose, Perkins
Piles, Richardson, Root, Scott, Smith
(Mich), Smoot, Stephenson, Suther
land, Warner, Warren and Wetmore.
i AS utterly impossible for the conser
vatives to reach the regulars have
classed Beveridge, Bristow, Clapp
Cummins, Dolliyer and La Toilette
The men on whom the regular Re
publicans are still working and wht
will receive the attention of Presiden
Taft include Borah, Bourne, Brown
Burkett, Crawford. Dixon, Gamble an,
Nelson.
All of these men have voted will
the progressives from time to time
They have refused, however, to b,
called progressives and have beel
found in the ranks of the regulars a
J least half of the time.

Christiania, May 6.-Theodore
Roosevelt delivered his address ON
international Peace" before the Nobel
prize committee.
The former president of the United
States entered upon the most difficult
field of European politics and in the
conclusion of carefully worked out
thesis advocated an international
agreement that would serve to check
the growth of ornaments, especially
naval ornaments, and the formation
of league of peace by those great
powers honestly bent on universal con-
cord, mot only to keep the peace
among themselves, but to prevent, by
force if necessary, it's being broken
by others"
What Mr.. Roosevelt had to say be-
fore the king and queen Of Norway
and other representative personages
constituted the basis of the private
conversations which he is having with
the statesmen of Europe as occasion
aries, COuCcIuluS lut pldCllCdl pOo0l~
bilities of collective action by the va
rious governments for the enforce
ment of universal peace.
Peace Not Always Best Policy.
Mr.. Roosevelt said that it must be
borne in mind even that the great end
in view was righteousness and he ex-
planned that peace, generally good in
itself, was never of the highest good
unless 1t came as the handmade of
righteousness. 1t became very evil
thing when it served merely as mask
for cowardice and sloth or as an in
strument to further the ends of des.
potism or anarchy.
mo man is worth calling man,
said the speaker, who will not fight
rather than submit to infamy or see
those that are dear to him suffer
wrong"
This principle Mr. Roosevelt applied
to nations.
AS he proceeded Mr.. Roosevelt's
voice plainly showed the effect of the
strain to which it has been subjected
by the daily speechmaking since
March l. 1t failed him several times
and nevertheless the former president
continued his set speech to its end.

BalIinger Again on Stand in
Land Office Probe.
HE CONTRADLCTS GARFIELD

Witness Declares Letter of Predeces-
sor to President Taft Contained In
accuracies-Denies Suggestion That
He Had Any Desire to Reflect on
Previous Administration, but Did All
He Gould to Avoid 1t.
Washington, May 6.--Secretary Bal
linger took the stand to complete his
direct testimony in the Ballinger-Pin-
chot investigation and for more than
an hour the committee questioned Mr..
Ballinger about the method pursued
in entering upon new reclamation
projects. 1t was brought out that many
OF the states had not had their equit-
able share of these projects. Senator
Flint sought to ascertain who was re-
sponsible for this condition. The wit
ness admitted that probably former
Secretary Hitchcock, under whose ad-
ministration most of the existing
projects were initiated, was RESPONSE
BILE and not Director Newell of the
reclamation service. Mr.. Davis was
at that time chief engineer Of the
service
A long discussion among members
of the committee ensued as to the
feasibility of various reclamation prof
ects. Mr. Flint wanted to know if 1t
were not fact that great many of
the projects had been initiated with
out regard to their feasibility, but in
| order to give various states their pro-
portion of the money they had paid
into the reclamation fund through the
| sale of public lands. Mr.. Ballinger
was not able to give a direct answer,
| but said in answer to a question by
Attorney Vertrees that he had not
| been able to get either of the officials
| of the reclamation service to express
any doubt as to the feasibility of any
projects.

Contradicts Garfield.

Mr.. Ballinger contradicted two state
ments made by Secretary Garfield in
his letter of Nov. 6, 1909, to President
Taft. In that letter, which is in evil
dence, Mr.. Garfield said that the CO.
operative certificate plan Of the re-
clamation service had been approved
by the senate committee on irrigation
and Mr. Ballinger read certificate
from the secretary of that committee
stating that a careful search Of the
minutes of the committee since 1903
had failed to show any reference to
the cooperative certificate plan.
In the same letter Mr.. Garfield told
the president that Secretary Ballinger
had instructed Director Newell and
Engineer Davis of the reclamation
service to make the restoration of
lands, withdrawn under Garfield, slow
ly in order not to reflect on the previ-
Gus administration. Mr.. Ballinger said
he gave no such order and recalled
that no such suggestion had been
made.
"If there was any suggestion" con-
tinued Mr. Ballinger, 'it was at the
instance of Mr. Newell in letter to
Senator La Toilette suggesting such a
course. The fact is that the restora-
tions were not made slowly, but were
made in the course of two or three
weeks as fast as they came down from
the reclamation service. 1t was not a

Trading in the wheat pit started with
moderate decline. which was followed
by slight rally despite the preponder-
ance OF bearish factors, notably foreign
weakness. large arrivals and slow de-
mand for cash wheat The temporary
strength was insufficient to hold the mar
ket at the high levels and prices slid
down gently from IS to Ia cents, the de-
cline being stayed at different points by
buying activity.
May fell from 81 1ossn1 101a to 1.09lsa
1.09A. the other futures travelling over
a shorter fall.

more noticeable late In the day. con-

parison with the July figures, many trad
ers selling nearby months and invest
ing in the more distant delivery. Early
symptoms of strength. which carried May
up to 66Mc, were unable to successfully
resist the downward trend induced by
weakness in the demapd for cash corn

kept above May. the distant months fluc-

Large receipts at sluggish demand for
cash oats were the governing factors in
the decline, which left all the futures
at the low point.

Easier conditions in the live hog mar

strength of the market brought many
