Washington, June 4: Gov. Wood
row Wilson OF New Jersey, prominent
ly mentioned for the Democratic nom
ination for president, Mr.. Bryan oelne
willing, today gave his endorsement TO
the Underwood bill for the revision OF
the wooden schedule. In thus taxing
position in favor of a revenue duty on
wool at the present time, Governor
Wilson supports the position OF Lead
er Underwood and Speaker Clark and
diametrically opposes the views OF Mr..
Bryan. The latter labelled as "Aldrich
Democrats any one who would vote
for q duty on raw wool. Admitting
that the doctrine of free raw material
may easily be carried to an absurd ex-
tent since the government derives
most of the revenue for Its mainten-
ance through the customs houses.
Gov. Wilson agrees that the question
of revenue must Of necessity enter into
the discussion of the revision OF the
wooden schedule.
Washington, June 8: The initial
step in the first big reform inaugural
ed by Chief Justice White Of the su-
preme court of the United States since
his elevation to that office, became
public today when announcement was
made that the chief justice had ap-
pointed a committee to change and
revise the rules of practice In the
equity courts of the United States. The
committee Is composed or Justices
Lurton and Van Devanter and Chief
Justice White, ex-off1cio. 1t Will re-
port in full to the court, probably In the
fall, such changes and revisions in the
present rules. For years the rules
have been pronounced in many quar-
ters as antiquated and often working
Injustice and hardship. The most
general outcry against them has been
that they encourage delay In litigation
and high costs. Not only have clients
complained of the delays, and costs,
but lawyers themselves fret at the in
surmountable delays. Another objec-
ton has been that the rules are un-
necessarily complicated.
Washington. May 81: A million
dollars a day for good roads, Is the
record that will soon be established in
the United States, according to-
Logan Walter Page, director Of the
Federal Office Of public roads. In 1904
expenditures for the construction and
maintenance Of roads and bridges to-
tailed only $S0,000,000, while this
year about $40, 900, 900 will be spent.
Every state in the Union" said Mr..
Page today, seems at last to be arous-
ed to the benefits to be derived from
investments in improved highways.
OF the IS, 900, 900 bond issue recently
authorized in Maryland over $780,
900 will be available this year; in
North Carolina over 100000 is
available from county bond issues, and
the legislature has authorized the con-
struction Of 425 miles Of road from
the coast to the Tennessee line; vari-
Gus counties in Tennessee will spend
$1,500,000; Texas counties will spend
$1,500,000, and $2,500,000 will be
available from Virginia county bond
issues"
- Pittsburg, Pa, June 4: President
Taft on his way back to Washington
from Chicago passed through this city
tonight and is due in Washington ear
ly tomorrow. Friends Of the president
who came east with him, were greatly
pleased today at the way in which his
speech in behalf of Canadian reciproc-
ity before the Western Economic So
ciety at Chicago, had been received.
The frank explanation which the pres
ident gave of his understanding Of the
forces which are at work to defeat the
treaty, his friends believe, will have a
decidedly beneficial effect. The way
in which he took the country into his
confidence is bound to make new allies
to the treaty in Washington and
throughout the country, according to
those close to the administration. The
president will get into the fight again
tomorrow to have the bill reported
without amendment to the senate by
the finance committee and it is certain
that his two thousand-m trip to
make a speech for reciprocity has
strengthened his conviction that much
of the country looks upon it with fa-
vorable eyes.
Judge Gary, head Of the United
Steel corporation, in his testimony be-
fore the congressional investigation
committee. a few days ago, said that
the time was coming and coming soon,
when a department Of the Federal
government would have control OF all
corporations and would fix the prices
of manufactured products to consul
mers, wages Of employees, and the rate
of dividends or profits to the stock
holders OF such corporations, and ex-
pressed himself as hoping for the
early coming Of such an arrangement,
as it would tend to settle the uncer-
tainties Of business and would bring
about Industrial peace and prosperity.
Andrew Carnegie, in London inter-
view endorses all that Judge Gary had
TO say and added: Our court Of
commerce will have access to all the
books and acts Of corporations, and

revealed. The twenty-five and fifty
per cent profit will be no more.
People will have to be content
with five and ten per cent. Multi-mil-
lionaires will then be very scarce" he
added with chuckle. 1T will deal
literally with capital. but also justly
with the consumer. At last we shall
have peace and contentment in the
wide range of production, and this
new plan will be far more satisfactory
to both parties than any the world
has yet known"
Washington, June 3: A rigorous
corrupt practices act will be one of the
results of the Lorimer scandal. This
is the expectation of congressional
leaders as a result of the action of the
privileges and elections senate commit
tee in naming a subcommittee to
draft such a measure. The committee,
especially its veteran members who
took part in the Lorimer inquiry last
session, are anxious to rehabilitate
themselves in public favor. The re-
