COMMITTEE FINDS DEREJICTIDN

Dismissal of Consul General at Cal,

Washington, June 2S.-ENpreSSi 1g
the belief that there was misau.
preparation Of State department funds
and recomm ending as a result, the
dismissal from the service of William
~. Mlchacl, American consul general
at Calcutta and former chief clerk of
the state departments and Of Thomas
Morrison, diSbursing clerk Of the de-
partmcnt, the subcommittee Of the
house committee on expenditures in
the state department today met and
adopted the report, which tomorrow
it will present to the full committee.
The alleged misapprOpriation oc-
CURED in connection with the pur-
chase of a portrait of Associate Jus
tice Day, former secretary Of state,
and amounted to $1,000.
Only $3.50 was paid to Albert Ros-
entha!, the artist who painted the pic
ture, whereas, the committee during
its Investigations traced to a single
voucher the sum Of $2,450, on which
voucher were written the words for
portrait and frame Of eX-Secreta1y
Day."
Neither the president nor the Sec
retary of state, according to the re-
port, has the right 20 pay for pOr-
traits for former secretaries Of state
from the emergency fund from which
came the money 10 pay for the por-
trait in question. The testimony hav-
ing showed that the 500 accounted
for as in the hands Of Morrison as
disbursing clerk and of Michael as
chief clerk, the committee holds that
the money was misappropriated
either by Michael and Morrison Joint
tly, or by Michael alone
The mysterious finding of the
voucher for $2,450 which was re-
ported lost when the committee began
its investigation, but which later was
discovered by a messenger or the
floor in the disbursing clerks office
is criticised by the committee in it's
report as beyond human belief. Both
Morrison and Michael should be re-
moved from office, in the opinion Of
the committee, for the good Of the
public service.
The subcommittee consists of Rep
resentatives Hamlin Of Missouri,
chairman Of the committee; Dent Of

HOT WORDS FOR RECIPROCITY.
REPUBLICAN SENATOR'S DE
NOtNCE CANADIAN TRADE
AGREEMENT.
Borah and Cummins Think HilI Womb
Mean Betrayal Of Agricultural IN
tCrc>tS Of Nation.

Washington, June 2S.-This was =
day oG bitter arraignmcnt OF the
Canadian reciprocity bill in the SEN
ate. beginning With Senator Cum
MINIS attack on the measure as legfs-
I"ti"n unjust to the agricultural in
tercs,s and concluding with Senator
iorah', dcnunciation Of the bill as
Republican betrayal of the farming
interests, the debate was all anlacon-
istic to the agreement ana critical 10
the president and his methods.
The senate gave but partial atten-
ton TO the speeches. although they
We're among the most important that
will be made against the bill. Several
times a call Of the senate was de
manded, and Senator Nelson of Min
nesota, finally proposed that as so
little attention was given to the sub
ject the senate take a recess until
November or December.
Senator Cummins, who will con.
tinue his speech tomorrow. not only
attacked the construction Of the reci-
procity agreement itself, which he
said put The whole burden Of free
trade upon the farmer without giving
him and benefits in the guise Of re-
duction Of duty on manufactured pro-
ducts, but criticised also the power
exercised by the president to ne
gOtiate ii and to bring il TO the point
Of definite agreement between the
two countries.

farmer" declared Senator Commuins.
the day in which he is to be ex-
cluded from benefits of the protective
tariff; the decree has been written. il
needs only the official signature for
the time being to exclude him from
the company of the manufacturers
Of the United States"
Senator BOrah's criticism was based
on the record of the Republican par
ty as the advocate of protection for
the farmer. He quoted at length
from Republican platforms, campaign
documents, campaign arguments and
definitions of policy to show that the
abolition Of tn protection on farm
products was a reversal Of all Repub-
lican policy. Senator Borah said

Senator Borah declared reciprocity
in agricultural products was either a

Republican had heretofore stood. or
a course Of brutal betrayal Of the

Seed PRICES UP;
Mills MAY STOP

Jackson, Miss, Jan. 14.-As the
crushing season draws to a close the
oil mills of Mississippi are engaging
in lively scramble for seed, and the
market is decidedly bullish.
During the past few days the mills
in Jackson have been paying as high
as $50 per ton for seed, {. o. b. al
stations Other points report quota
lions as high as s2S per ton, this be-
ing the minimum price that prevails
generally over the state.
Some of the mills will close down
during the latter part of the present
month, owing to the scarcity of the
seed supply, and practically all mills
will be closed by the first of March.
Managers state that prices are not
likely to go above $50 per ton, unless
there is a very unexpected advance
in the market for refined products.
The cotton seed meal market has
been dull and listless during the past
Elitty days, and the foreign demand
for meal Is next to nothing, owing to
the large production of SOY heRn meal

went into discussion of the proposed
rate with representatives of the pea
nut growers.
The result of the conference was
that the roads agreed to practically
everything asked for by the peanut
growers, but it will take some time to
formulate tariff. 1t was agreed that
the roads be given till Feb. Fl. when
the Railroad Commission win be In
session, to fix rate and report back
for the approval of the commission
and representatives of the peanut
growers.
There is no doubt but that the rate
will be acceptable to all concerned, as

outlined the proposed tariff at TIM

by the peanut men were accepted.

A. c. Benners, of the Mississippi
Travellers Association, announces
that the membership enrolment has
reacher the 1900 mark, and thus the
organization takes rank as the largest
body of business men in the common
wealth.
/ The figures represents only the
paid-up membership, and the pledge
made by President Benners at the an
nual convention in Columbus last
June to have 1900 members enrolled
within the year is about to be fulfilled
During the next sixty days we are
going to wage another energetic cam
paign for new members" said Presi-
dent Benners this morning, land | am
confident that it will not be difficult
to add 200 to the list. Possibly we
will pass the 1,5eG mark before the
next annual convention is held at
Gulfport in June"
The Gulfport convention will be one
of exceptional interest because Of the
fact that the legislative program fol
the ensuing year will be mapped out
and a memorial drafted for presenta
ton to the legislature setting fortf
needed reforms. Since it's organiza
ton the Mississippi Travellers Asso
citation has been an important factol
in shaping the trend of legislation

COSTS $4,000
FOR JOURNALS
OF ASSEMBLY

Jackson, Miss, Jan. Alt looks
like waste of good money for the state
of Mississippi to pay about $4,10O for
the house and senate journals, which
are distributed to members of the leg
islature and a select few free Of
charge. There is nothing in the jour
nails for anyone, except to crafty the
vanity of some of the members, and
the journal is of no real value.
Secretary of State j. w. Power is
sending out the journals to members
and others designated to receive
copies, while the state pays the ex.
press. The journals of the last ses-
sion of the legislature represent, in
printing, binding and express, total
cost of about $4,100, and the only per
son who seems to derive any benefit
from the books is the printer.
The journal is read and approved
each day of the session, or would BIZ
if it were not dispensed with, ant
what the members do not care to hav'
read TO them during the session is no
worth paying that much money for, Il
the contention of some who would lik'
to see the journal dispensed with TO
good and all.
The only use the journal is put to l
by some members, either seeking, re
election to the legislature or som
other office, who reads from it to sho'
how he voted on certain questions
The journal has never had any officis
I value, while it is entirely without IL
erary merit, and there is not on
thing to recommend it, except tn
