A REMEDY FOR TIRED NERVES
Nothing More Soothing Than a Hot
Bath, Preferably With Pleas
ant Scents.

Nothing so revives the dropping
spirits as a dainty, refreshing bath.
AS remedy for frayed nerves, tepid
energy and run-over-at-the-heels dis
position it has the family doctor COM
pletely outclassed and once it has be-
come an established habit the physi-
clan is in a fair way of becoming a
past institution entirely.
Bath powders are used to soften
water and consist of scented carbon
ate OF soda with bichlorate of soda
or borax. Violet bath powder is made
by seeming one pound of crystallized
carbonate of soda or one pound of
borax with Is grains of ionone and
coloring with one grain of aniline vio-
Jet. Lavender bath powder is scented
with half dram Of oil of lavender.
One heaping teaspoonful is used
for bath. A bit on the tip of the
spoon Is enough for a wash basin
Bath pads are made of Turkey tow
cling and measure four by six inches
Ihey are used as a sponge and are
hlled with a quarter of a pound Of the
soda preparation with one pound of
oatmeal. This amount is sufficient to
fill IL bags of the size given. The pro-
portion Of oatmeal and soda should be
varied according to the hardness of
the water. This combination of meal,
soda and scent not only softens the
water, but it cleans and softens the
skin and imparts refreshing vigor
to the body.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVORERS
MEET AT ATLANTIC CITY
Attendance Is Greatest in History Of
Organization-Many Prominent
Men to Speak

Atlantic City, N. 1.-THE attend
ance upon the twenty-fifth inter
national convention of the Christian
Endeavor society which opened here
is the largest that was ever present
at any previous meeting of the or
gantzation
That the most sanguine predictions
of those in charge Of the great con-
vention have been surpassed is jubi-
lantly admitted at headquarters, and
when a reason for the vast attend
ance is sought the officials point with
pride to the long and interesting pro-
gram devised for the delegates in
struction and amusement, and the list
OF prominent speakers who have sig
nif1ed their intention of addressing
the delegates and visitors Among
the latter are: President Taft, Speak
er Champ Clark, former vice-presi-
dent Charles W. Fairbanks, Judge

ANTHRACITE TRUST
AGAIN UNDER FIRE
Validity of Commodities Clause
to Be Tested.
SUIT AGAINST LEHIGH FILED
Government Renews Its Action to
Break Up Control of Mines by
Railroads in Eastern
Field.

Washington.-The government Will
renew the fight to separate
the great coal carrying railroads from
their virtual control of mines, and
thus vitalize the commodities clause
Of the Interstate commerce law. A
test case against the Lehigh Valley
railroad was filed in the United States
court in Philadelphia
That the Lehigh Valley Coal COM
pany. Coke Bros, Inc, the New York
& Middlefeld Railroad and Coal COM
pany and the Locust Mountain Coal
and Iron company are not bona fide
coal companies, but merely adjuncts
to the Lehigh Valley railroad, and are
devices for evading the commodity
clause" is the governments principal
complaint
1t is also alleged that the Lehigh
Valley railroad, with the object Of re
moving competition, has caused the
Lehigh Valley Coal company to con-
tract at loss for the output Of other
anthracite operators, has transported
the coal over It's own lines and through
the coal companies fixed the price In
New York and other markets.
The government charges that al
though the buying of coal from other
operators has been done at loss to
the coal company it has enabled the
Leh1gh Valley railroad to transport
the coal over its lines and profit from
the freight charges.
To support its claim that the coal
company is merely the dummy
through which the railroad engaged in
mining, transporting and selling coal
In violation of the commodities clause,
the government cites that the officers
of the railroad and the coal company
are the same and that certain mem
bers of the directorate and the eXecu-
tive committee of the railroad are
members of the directorate and execu-
Among these named are Eben B.
Thomas, George F. Baker, E. T. States
bury and James A. Middleton.
Each of them, It is charged. has
been named to his position in the coal
company because of his position with
the railroad. 1t Is set forth that the
coal company uses the railroad COM
pany's Offices and does its business
over the railroad company's desks.
AS a further allegation that the Le-
high Coal company is an adjunct of
the Lehigh Valley railroad, the gov
ernment's complaint says that since
the capital stock of the coal company
has been owned by the railroad it has
paid no dividends, that millions of dol
lars have been advanced by the rail-
road to the coal company which have
never been refunded, and that the rail-
road has paid the interest upon the
coal company's bonds, being compen-
stated, the government claims, by the
earnings from transportation of coal
over it's lines.
While in effect the governments &C
ton is a blow at the so-called coal
trust, the case is separate from that
suit which is now on appeal to the
Supreme court.

RECIPROCITY ACT
WINS TEST VOTE
CumminS' Free Meat Amendment
Beaten in Senate.
DEFEATED BY BIG MARGIN
ForeshadoWs That President VIII
Have His Way In Getting Cana
dian Tariff Agreement Through
Congress Without Change.

Washington.-Pres Taft gain
ed a victory when the senate, in
the first test vote on the Cana
dian reciprocity bill, defeated, IA to
80. the amendment proposed by SEN
ator Cummins placing meats of all
kinds coming from Canada on the
free list. The ii votes cast for the
amendment will be undoubtedly cast
against the passage Of the bill.
This action foreshadows the course
Of the senate with respect to other
amendments. 1t has been apparent
for some time that the president would
have his way in getting through un-
amended the Canadian reciprocity
compact.
The rejection of the first Cummins
amendment demonstrates that this ex-
pectation was well founded
On account of the absence of SO
many senators from Washington only
bare quorum voted. The vote was
as follows, the yea votes indicating
opposition to the Taft program:
Yeas-Republican Bourne,
Bristow, Clapp, Clark (Wyo) Cum
minis. Dixon, Gronna, Kenyon, Nelson,
Sutherland-11. Democrats-Bailey.
Simmons, Thornton-3.
Nays - Republicans Brandegee,
8urnham, Burton, Crane, Cullom, Cur
It's, Hepburn, Jones, Lippitt, Page,
Pofndexter, Smoot, Wetmore-13 Dem
ocrats-Bryan, Chamberlain, Chiffon,
Fletcher, Gore, Hitchcock, Johnson,
Johnston, Martin, MARITIME. Myers,
Owen. Pomerene, Reed. Shively, Smith,
Stone, Swanson, Williams-19.
An analysis of the vote shows the
progresstves voted as a unit for the
Cummins proposal. They were sup
ported by three Republicans usually
numbered among the regulars-Clark
of Wyoming, Sutherland of Utah and
Nelson Of Minnesota. Mr. Sutherland
always has been an Independent and
Mr.. Nelson knows no ties with respect
to tariff questions. He is accounted a
low tariff man. Only three Democrats
voted for free meats.
1t Is expected the fourteen votes
cast for the amendment will be cast
against Tic passage Vi the RECIPROCITY
bill.
The Democrats who voted against
the Cumm1ns amendment did so on
the ground that its adoption would
open the door to countless other
amendments and result In the defeat
OF the agreement
Most Of the Republicans who voted
against the amendment were actuated
by a desire to comply with the presi-
dents wishes.
1t is expected that a vote will be
taken Tuesday or Wednesday on other
amendments offered by Senator Cum
Minis and Senator Simmons, designed
to add manufactures of raw materials,
such as flour, to the free list, which
amendments will PROBABLY be voted
down
AS soon as reciprocity is out of the
way, the leaders in the senate will at
tempt to reach an agreement for a
vote on the Democratic farmers free
list BILL" and the bill revising the
wooden duties.

SIGHT TROUBLE WITH CASTRO.
U. S. Government Officials Much Con-
cerned Over ExIed President.


cerned Over ExIed President.
Washington. - The landing of for
mer President Castro in Vene-
zuela is regarded by the government
officials here as a matter which Is
pregnant with great trouble for the
navy.
1t appears to be an established prin-
ciple that the United States is bound
to support the government of Gomez,
he having been elevated to the presi-
dency by the naval demonstration
against Castro which made his fight
to obtain the presidency fruit1ess. In
addition to that, President Gomez en-
tered into an agreement with the
United States for a settlement of
claims which had been repudiated by
Castro and there was tacit interna-
allow Castro a base from which to OBJ
crate against Gomez.
It is stated here that should Castro
surprise Caracas and set up a govern
ment he would be kept there until the
United States shall have found means
to dislodge him. In order to make Cas-
tro's usurpation valueless it is under
stood that the navy will assist the
Gomez government in retaining pos
session of La Guayra and all the sea-
ports of Venezuela which are access
ible to the ships Of the navy.

MAKES CUT IN BRICK RATES
Railroad Commission Issues Order
for Reduction of Is to 20 Per
Cent. in Freight Tariff.

MadisOn.-Freight rates on brick
have been reduced between Is and
20 per cent by the state railroad rate
commission in an order which af-
fects the principal roads of the state.
The order was issued after a long
investigation upon the petition of the
Wisconsin Brick Manufacturers as
ISOLATION. 1t prescribes the exact
rates to hold between different points
in the state. The reductions vary
from 3 to 20 per cent.
The new rates range from IT cents
per 100 pounds for five miles or less
to II cents per 100" pounds for 800
miles.
The new rates will, it is expected,
enable the Wisconsin brick manufac-
turers to compete with Chicago man
ufacturers, who, owing to low inter-
state rates, ship large quantities of
brick into the southern part of the
state

TRADE BOARD Is
ASKED IN SENATE.
Plan Presented to Control Biq Cor
poratlons-Check on Trusts
Ia Aim.

Neutrality-suspicious. Newlands OF
Nevada introduced bill In the house
providing for an interstate trade com.
mission for the regulation and control
OF industrial corporations.
Broadly speaking, 1t is proposed
that the new commission shall bear
the same relation toward Industrial
corporations as the Interstate COM
merce commission does toward the
railroads Of the country.
The scope OF Mr.. Newlands' propo-
sitton Is far-reaching and embodies
as well the principal features of Pres
ident Taft's plan for federal incorpora-
ton as other desirable qualities that
have been demonstrated as lacking in
recent efforts to control big business.
1t is provided at the outset that all
corporations engaged In interstate
trade whose annual gross receipts ex-
coed 100000 shall come under the
Jurisdiction Of the commission, though
smaller corporations may, If they de-
sire. accept the benefits and the re-
sponsibilities Of the plan. It Is not
proposed that the commission shall
in any way have power to regulate
prices, but in practically every other
respect the new body will have dras-
tic power in keeping the big indus
trial concerns within the law
For example, before a company SUBJ
ject to the provisions of the bill can
engage In interstate trade 1t shall be
required to be registered by the COM
mission, which register shall only be
granted after satisfactory statements
as to capitalizations, methods Of
financing and general business opera
ton. All registered corporations will
be required to make annual reports,
the Information contained in them to
be free to the public, and for improper
financial organization, oppressive or
unfair methods Of competition, accept
ance of rebates, concessions, or other
determinations, refusal to allow the
commission free access to books and
papers, or noncompliance with any
judicial decree rendered under the
Sherman law, the commission may
cancel the registration Of any cor
poration and, in extreme cases, debar
a corporation from engaging In inter-
state trade.
Similarly the proposed commission
will have supervisory power over the
capitalization of all corporations COM
ing within its scope. A concern re-
ceiving register from the commits
sion shall be known as United
States registered company" The COM
mission is to be composed of five
members, to be appointed by the pres
ident, with the consent of the senate,
and not more than three Of the COM
missioners shall be members of the
same political party

handed down a decision holding that

right to try John J. Mcnamara on
murder charges, growing out of the
destruction Of the Times plant Octo-
Der 1, 1910, and overruling the plea
of no Jurisdiction entered on behalf of
the labor leader.

weight of the authority was against
the contention that an accused must
be tried upon the charge on which
his extradition was secured In COM
menting upon the alleged fraudulent
manner In which Mcnamara was
brought here from Indianapolis, Judge
Bordwell stated that it was not within
his province to investigate this.
