EXTENDS TO BIG CITIES.
Postal Savings Banks Service for New
York and Chicago.

Washington, July 17.=Postmaster
General Hitchcock has designated the
main postofices in New York, Chicago,
Boston and St. Louis as postal savings
repositories. They will Legin to re-
ceive deposits on Angus, 1.
Having installed successfully more
than a thousand postal savings banks
in second class postofices, Mr.. Hitch
cock decided to extend It to some of
the first class offices. The four cities
were named because of their great
population and commercial prominence
and because in each one is located a.
United States sub-treasury, which will
facilitate the heavy banking business
that is likely to result from postal
savings transactions.
AS in the smaller cities. the system
probably will be popular with the for
eign born residents, many of whom
now send their surplus savings to their
home countries. From New York City
alone last year the money orders sent
abroad by foreign born residents ag-
gregated $9,00O,O0O.

tariff meets my hearty approval. The
American people expected at the hands
of the extraordinary session of the
Sixty-first congress a revision down
what was fairly promised and the re-
suit was party defeat in the election
last year. The Payne-Aldrich act
should be amended schedule by sched-
of the last Republican national con-
vention.
Amend Court Procedure.
my observation and experience of
almost fourteen years on the bench has
taught me that court procedure both
in the federal and state courts stands
greatly in need of amendment to the
end that in the administration of the
law, technicalities should not thwart
or delay justice. Speedy justice IN
criminal practice is almost of as much
Importance as certain justice.
I'm the foregoing I have set forth
my views and given my attitude on the
questions now before the public, and
believe such views to be in harmony
with the demands of vast majority
of the Republican voters of the dis
trict and ] shall ask of the Republican
party a nomination for representative
in congress at the primaries to be held
in August, 1912, and if given such
nomination and elected to congress,
promise to stand for progressive meas
uFeS as neTeln OulilHeu ctlQ ~ GOIA 6Ct-
ly represent the sentiment and needs
of the constituency sending me to con-
gress.
s'I have great pride IN the history
of the Republican party 1t has al
Wavs been the party of progress and
reform. But if that party is to con-
tiaue in power or be a factor for the
public good. it must not be satisfied
with past deeds. but as new issues
arise and new conditions develop, it
mony with its past history and be pro-
gressive as the needs of the people de-
mand. Parties like nations go forward
or retrograde. There is no such thing
as standing still. stand pat means
satisfaction with present conditions.
To that sentiment I can not subscrib be.

MATTER OF HONOR
New Treaty of Commerce and
Navigation in Effect
Between the United States and
Empire of Japan.
EXCLUSION LEFT OUT.
Uncle Sam Takes the Mikado's
Word for 1t.
Includes a Change in the jap
anese Customs Tariff.

Washington, July 1.-THE new treaty
Of commerce and navigation between
the United States and Japan went into
operation today, replacing the old
treaty negotiated during Secretary
Greshan's administration The i'm
portant point of difference between the
two conventions lies in the omission
from the new convention of the para
graph in the old relating to immigra-
ton restrictions which was objection
able to the Japanese, the United States
relying upon the honor of Japan to
carry out the spirit of existing under
takings which prevent the departure Of
japanese coolies to America
There is also provision for the sub
stitution of the new Japanese customs
tariff for the existing general conven-
tiona1 rates.
1t happens that a similar treaty
which Japan has negotiated with
France does not become effective until
August 4 and in conformity with an
agreement between the United States
and Japan the new tariff rates will not
apply to goods imported into Japan
from America until that date

ABOUT The JACKPOT.
The Committee Finally Obtains Some
Hearsay Evidence.

Washington. July 1.-THE 100000
legislative Jackpot about which re-
VOlve charges affecting the election Of
Senator Lorimer, figured in the testi-
mOny at the opening of today's hearing
before the senate I4orimer committee.
Grer of an electrical company at Du-
luth, Mimi, testified before the Helm
investigating committee of the Illinois
senate that on a train running out of
Duluth about March, 1911, c. f. Wiehe,
who is associated in business with Ed
ward Hines, declared to him that
there was a Jackpot raised to elect
Mr.. Lorimer. I know what I am talk
ing about because I subscribed $4,000
to it myself
Mr. Burgess testified today about
this conversation. He said he and
They began conversin0 in the smoking
car. Burgess said he made a remar :
about the Lorimer election, which
finally led to the stranger who, he
said, was Wiehe, to remark that Bur
CESS did not knew very much about
it. Shortly afterward, according to
the witness today, Wiehe said:
There was a Jackpot for Lorimer's
election I know what / am talking
about, because subscribed $4,000 to
it myself
Didn't you think it strange that a
BTGISCt stranger SIlOUlQ lltdAE d GOb-
fession of Wholesale corruption to
you?" asked Senator Kern.
I always did. That was the reason
1 asked who the man was when we got
off the train
On ross-examination, Burgess testi-
fled that he was acquainted with w
H. Cook. of Duluth. whose versions of
conversations with Edward Hines have
bee disputed by Hines Burgess said
he had talked with Cook about coming
to Washington to testify ard Cook had
remarked
you'll have hot time"
Didn't he say: Give 'em hell?' - in
quired Attorney Hynes-
He did not"
Burgess declared that c. F. Wiehe
said 100000 was raised to elect Lori
mer But after Senator Jones had
asked why he did not tell that to the
Helm committee and suggested that he
might have got the idea from the
newspapers subsequently. Burgess told
the committee he was not certain
whether Wiehe had said "a jackpot"
had been raised to elect Lorimer or
whether 100000 had been raised.

Washington, July 17.-Senator Ter

of the United States senate at 11:2O a.
m. today. Acting on his telegraphic
request to Vice President Sherman this

cant until Governor Hoke Smith quail
