RAILROAD BILL
GOES THROUGH
Passes the House With Good
sized Majority
MANY PROVISIONS CUT OUT
Section Permitting Acquisition of
Stock in Competing Lines Voted
Down

Washir gton, May 10.-The admin
istration railroad bill passed the
House yesterday by a vote of 200 to
1876.
The bill was promptly placed be-
fore the House for final action upon
various amendments that had been
voted upon when the measure was
under consideration in committee of
the whole.
The previous question upon the en-
tire measure being ordered, Mr..
Mann offered an amendment for the
reinsertion Of section twelve, author
izing the purchase by railroads of the
stock of non-competing transportation
companies. This was defeated by a
close vote.
BY a viva vcce vote the House
then agreed to the bill as amended in
committee of the whole and Mr.. Ad.
amson Of Georgia, representing the
minority moved to recommit the bill
to the committee on interstate and
foreign commerce with instruction
20 report IL back to the House with
the commerce court provision strick-
en- out This motion was defeated
1871 to 176.
On roll call the bill was then
passed by a vote Of 200 to 1876 On
this vote the regular REPUBLICANS and
Insurgents voted solidly in the afiir-
native, fourteen Democrats joining
them in voting for the passage OF the
bill. These Democrats were Bart

MISTAKE CAUSED DEATH
Wilfred Harvey 3 Years Old, Victim
Doctor Said Case was Hopeless

Rutland, May il-Circumstances
surrounding the death of Wilfred. the
three year old son of Mr. and Mrs.
jeremiah Harvey OF Evergreen aven-
ne, which occurred last Friday morn
ing, tend to show that death may
have been due to series OF accid-
ents.
The child was III with whooping
cough, and DR.. c. F. Ball had told the
parents Thursday morning that the
patient probably would not recover
He gave the father n blank. bearing
the words, "Cresolin. bottle" telling
him to burn II in the child's room. Mr.
Harvey took the order to drug store
on Merchants Row and clerk viii
Abraham gave him a bottle.
AS soon as II was burned in the
room the child went into commissions.
Dr. Ball was summoned and when
he entered the room he knew that
creolln had been burned by mistake.
He threw open the windows and be-
gan to burn cresolin but II was 100
late, and the little fellow died within
few minutes.
Abraham claims that the order
looked to him like "crealIn." and as
the word was obviously misspelled he
supposed that creolin was wanted.
He says that what was really wanted
was vapo-cresolin. L Is probable
that no arrests will be made. as the
doctor states that II would be hard
to prove that the mistake really caus-
ed death, as the child's case was
practically hopeless.

REPUBLICAN PLANS
AS Outlined by Chairman of State
Committee

Newport, May lin reply to in
quiries Frank C. Williams, chairman
has announced the following arrange
ments for the meeting of the state
Republican committee
Il have called a meeting of the
state Republican committee for Fri
day the 18th inst, at the Van Ness
house to arrange for the time and
place for holding the state convention
and to discuss the question of how
best to arrange for an opportunity by
the convention to discuss the plat
form.
IF the two district conventions can
be held the day before the state con-
yention, so that the delegates would
be likely 20 be at the place of hold
ing the state convention early in the
evening before the convention, the
county members of the committee on
resolutions could be chosen in sea
son to give plenty Of time to formu-
late platform, and the convention
could go in at a. M, and after or
ganization take up the question OF
platform and dispose of it before the
nominations We're made,
Some suggestions have been made
that the committee select a commit
tee before the caucuses are held to
prepare tentative platform TO be
presented TO the committee on resolu-
tions This might work well but
would be subject 10 the criticism that
the committee was exceeding its au-
thority, and am inclined to think
that the committee should select the
chairman of the committee on resolu-
lions, as as been the custom and then
so arrange the program that the con-
ention will have every opportunity to
consider the platform presented.
However the committee will de-
cide this matter when il meets"

LEADERS LEAGUEO
WITH OUR GREAT
CORPORATIONS
Heads Of Republican Party Not
With the People
TARIFF BILL DENOUNCED
Senators Cummins and Dolliver of
Iowa Take Flat-Footed Stand as
insurgents.

Des Moines, Iowa. May 1l-Sena-
tors Cummins and Dolliver made the
principal addresses at a progressive
Republican rally here last night Sen
ator Cummins traced the develop
ment of corporations in the United
States and declared that present Re
publican leaders were i'm league with
these corporations. He asserted that
the present split in the Republican
ranks must be taken into considera-
ton.
All those Republican leaders who,
he charged, were in league with cor
porations, Senator Cummins said.
Most Of them have been brought
up with these influences all around
them. and therefore whenever law
is proposed that restricts, or reduces
corporate control their first inquiry
is not will this measure bring help
to the people, but is it recommended
by the captains of industry, the mas
ters of high finance
These leaders Of ours find them
selves so busy hearing what these
princes OF the earth have to say about
proposed legislation that they have
scant time to consider the desires
and conditions of the great mass of
humanity.
Il have no hesitancy in naming the
| present leaders of the Republican
party in the congress Of the United
States. In the senate one man
stands solitary and alone, and hith-
erto his word has been law TO that
august tribunal. Senator Aldrich is
the man of whom ! have been speak
Ing.
in the House, Mr. Cannon, the
speaker, has exercised a dominating
control. and after him come Payne,
Dalzell and few others of the same
| type. They look at these vital prob
lens from the corporate standpoint,
and they always are fearful that any
step toward the further and better
regulation OF these overmastering
forces in our commercial life will des-
troy business. will take away some OF
the profits with which the multi-mil.
lionaires have been enriching them
selves.
Every session of Congress will de-
velop Just such differences and can
you wonder that We, who are marked
for the disfavor of the powerful in
fuences at Washington. should want
a governor who is in sympathy with
what we are trying to do: should
want the whole state government to
be in harmony with the progressive
movement for better laws?
You will understand that | have
given you the reason why want TO
sec Warren Garst nominated for gov
ernor. The present members OF the
Houseof Representatives from this
district 81. A. r. HULL and from the
Ninth District tW. l. Smith and the
First District a.. A. Kennedy are
House of Representatives from this
Cannon and they have voted and
will vote IL they are returned to con
gress, just as the Aldrich and Can
non organization determines they
ought to vote"
Senator Cummins mentioned Hull
Smith and Kennedy by name, and al
so Mr.. Towner. He concluded:
The sooner We realize that this
division in the ranks of the Republi
can party is not ephemeral, the soon
er we appreciate that il is a move
ment of the people the sooner we will
become conscious OF great and ever
lasting truth"

HAPGOOD WRITES
OPEN LETTER TO
BATCHELDtR
Proposed a Joint Stamping Tour
Through the State
HAPGOOO NOT FRIGHTENED
Says That Not Since the Civil War
Have Such Momentous Issues Been
Before the State.

Hon. NJ. ]. Hapgood of Peru did not
lose any time in getting after Hon.
]. X. Batcheder. Yesterday Mr.
Hapgood addressed Mr. Batchelder the
following open letter:
Hon. j. X. Batchelder:-l note the
announcement by you of your deter
mination to enter the field as can
didate for the goyernorship. AS
resident Of the same county, the same
shire. the same town, where we were
both born and brought up dating our
birth from the same common, Puri-
tan ancestry, which gave us blood
worthy OF that high office, so far as
that is oncerned,-allow me so far
as the above connection goes, to ex-
tend to you best wishes for your sue
cess. But have an impression that
seeral months ago a chap Of about
my name and size entered the field,
and, If l know him well, he is no cow
ard, not easily frightened, easy to
coax, but mighty hard to drive. He,
therefore proposes to remain to the
end, whether it be bitter. or whether
it be sweet guarding well his line
OF action, so that, no matter what
may be the nnal issue, his sleep will
be undisturbed the night after the is
sue is tried.
| rejoice that you express willing
ness to file a full account OF your eX-
penses, and should have looked upon
you with scorn had you not, and trust
that you will put every cent In. SO
far my chief expense has been In the
line OF postage stamps to DR.. Mead,
but the time Is close at hand when
more vigorous and more expensive ac-
ton is needed. Plenty Of money can
be well and legitimately laid out. Not
since the Civil war have such NOM
entous subjects for discussion and
action come up. Let the people be
awakened and let us do all we can
to do IL. Instead of 'heelers' and Sc
cret agents, would propose to you
open meetings in every town OF the
county. as well, as far as possible,
elsewhere, where both we two, and
any other canditl-e or would be can
didate. mutually meet tho people, that
we may get Acquainted with them

ASKS VILLAGE TO
BUY LAND FOR
ROUND HOUSE
Rutland Railroad Representa-
tive Comes Before Trustees
COUNTY STREET SITE OPPOSED
Residents in That Vicinity Follow
Course of People Living on
Lincoln Street

There was a special meeting of the
village board of trustees last even
ing, called at the request OF George
Rutland road. to consider a difficulty
that has arisen over the location of
the proposed round house to be built
by the company in this village.
At the hearing before the public
service commission here April Is,
called on the petition of residents Of
Lincoln street, who complained of
the smoke from the locomotives
which have hitherto been stored on
sidetracks adjacent to the street, an
agreement was reached whereby it
was proposed to construct an engine
house on land owned by the railroad
company north of County street.
Since then. Mr.. McMaster, stated to
the trustees, complaints have been
made to the company by residents in
the vicinity protesting against the
erection of the building at this point.
To solve the difficulty he proposed
that the village purchase a portion
Of the lot now used by the local high
school as an athletic field and situa-
ted north of the Bennington Gas
Light company's plant for a round
house site.
Mr. McMaster argued that the rail
road company had two plots of land
suitable for round house sites and
that objections had been made TO the
building Of the structure on both. 1t
seemed TO him that If the company
was to experience opposition from
the pubic in locating the building on
its land that the village should see
site was provided. The land at the
athletic field is so far removed from
all other property suitable for resi-
dence that it's selection as a site for
the round house would not likely
meet with any opposition.
A committee consisting of Trus-
tees Nash, Hayes and Davenport was
appointed TO interview the owner of
the athlete field and ascertain what
sufficient land for the proposed site
would cost MI. McMaster stated
than an engineer from the office at
Rutland would be in the village to-
day 20 survey the lot.
he village Of North Bennington,
Mr.. McMaster said last might, bad Of

will be called at an early date to OBJ
