| Washington, d. c.. Dec. 6.-The out
standing features of President Taft's
message, sent to congress today, are
ithese:
He declares it is time to stop legis-
Hating, with reference to regulation Of
corporations and to witness the effect
of a vigorous execution of the laws
ALREADY on the statute books. The
exact limitation upon business meth
ods imposed by law will doubtless be
made clearer by pending decisions of
1.-THE supreme court.
Just at this time, the president says,
Ihe believes the activities of the gov
ernment in addition to enforcement of
the laws, should be directed toward
ECONOMY of administration on the en-
Ilargement of opportunities for foreign
trade, the building up of home indus
TRY and the strengthening the conf
Idence of capital in domestic invest
lment.
Mr.. Taft recommends strongly some
form of ship subsidy to increase Amer
ican shipping, especially to South
America.
The tariff board is not ready to sub
NIT a report on any of the schedules
of the Payne law, and Mr.. Taft says
he will not recommend any tariff leg
islation until the new congress con
venes in December, 1911
He urges that the tariff board bt
made permanent and that all future re
visions be made schedule by schedule
He vigorously opposes another genera
revision.
The Panama canal should be fort
fled. An appropriation of $19,OOO00
, lis recommended for this purpose.

= 1t is proposed that second class maj
rates shall be readjusted so as t

Strong representations are made fo
the establishment of new bankin
and currency system.
Two new battleships and severe
/, Auxiliary vessels are urged for tn
navy.
The president recommends that COZ
7, phosphate and oil lands and waite
! power sites be disposed of in the fl
: Iture by leasing.
Estimates for government expend
lures during the next fiscal year hay
: been cut to $500, 94,013.12, which
$52, 1854, ,SS7.36 less than the actual a
preparations for the current year Tt
estimated receipts for the next fisc
year are $6S0,OOO, 900.
The president urges the extensiC
of the civil service principle to Il
diplomatic and consular corps and Il
acquisition by the government of rel
dences and Offices for its diplomat
offices.
Some criticisms of the Payne tar
act are just, says the president, b
more are unfounded.
There should be more Offices for Il

the Auditor. After the 3Oth of June all
persons owning or harboring dogs with
out the required license are subject to a
fine as the laws on the subject require Of

Complaint has been frequently made
that many persons fail TO take out their
license. and that others pay on one or
two dogs when owning and harboring
more. or who send such dogs away dur
ing the summer months and bring them
back in the fall.
Attention has been called TO this eva
sion Of the law. and policemen will re-
port all such cases. and fines can be inn
posed upon those who fail to take out
licenses after trial i'm the Police Court.
In order TO avoid any mistakes persons
who make application for licenses would
do well to write their names and number
Of residence. street. etc, ON card or
paper when making application for their
licenses TO the Auditor.
Attention is also called TO the fact that

Killed When the Toronto Was Build

T. H. Pickford.

Thomas II. Pickford, owner of the

liable for the death Of the two workmen
which resulted from the collapse Of a por-
ton of the walls of the Toronto while in
the course of erection June 3, 1908.

jury which Is trying the ten-thousand-
dollar damage case filed by the admins
traitor of one of the victims of the acct

Pickford.

given out to independent contractors

to interfere with the work of these con-

ner in which the work was performed.
An effort is being made today by
counsel for Samuel Ross. the contractor
for the iron work. sued jointly with
Mr. Pickford, to obtain similar action
of the court in reference to Mr.. Ross.
Attorney Henry E. Davis of counsel ar
gued today that the record showed no evil
dence that the collapse resulted from any
defect in the iron work or in the manner
of its execution. He claimed the evidence
tended to show that the weight of the
concrete on the green walls might have
caused the collapse and that there is no
direct evidence as to the actual cause Of
the disaster.
The argument was still in progress this
afternoon.
