HARVARD.YALE BOAT
RACE OF III IMPORTANT.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. March g.
A change In the schedule for the Har-
ward crew is under consideration here.
1t Is proposed TO drop the April race
with Annapolis and row Cornell FIX.
instead of four. weeks before the Yale
race. The new plan has the advantage
of allowing the coaches to make the
Cornell contest an end In itself.
The proposed arrangement will prob
ably have an Important bearing on the
race at New London. Cornell o~rdinar-
lily succeeds In winning at Pough-
keepsie. Therefore. should Harvard
manage to defeat Cornell. the Yale
contest would assume a truly cham
~pionshlp character. according to Har-
wards point of view.

 She said that Mrs. Daniels put the money in black sack right before her eyes and said a charm over it. telling her not to take it out for one week Later in the day she needed a dollar to complete a purchase and concluded to risk one of the tainted bills She found only a wad of waste paper in the charmed sack.

BANK GUARANTY LAW
 IS CONSTITUTIONAL COMES UNDER THE HEAD OF
 POLICE POWER Decision by the United States Su-
 preme Court

Washington. Jan 3.-The bank guaranty law of Oklahoma. Nebraska and Kansas were declared constitu- tional today by the supresll ,.-s-c - the United States and thus tie fight over the policy of guaranteeing through the state. deposits in banks is won by the advocates O. such policy.
 The opinion of the court was an nOunced by Justice Holmes H.. said the main objection to the laws was that the assessment of banks by the state. in order to create a fund to guarantee depositors in other banks. took private property from one bank for the private use of another with out compensation.
 Justice Holmes admitted that it might be taking private property without return to pay the debts of a failing rival in business. but he said there were niore powerful considera- tions on the other side of the ques- tion.
 Tn the first place." he said. 'it is established by cases that an ultericr public Advantage may justify com paratively insignificant taking If pri- vate property for what. in it's imme- diate purpose is a private use.
 Tt would seem that there may be other cases beside the every day enc of taxation. in which the share of each party in the benefit of scheme in mutual protection is insufficient compensation for the co-relative bur den that it is compelled to assume. At least. if we have a case within a reasonable exercise of police power. as above explained. no more need be said.
 The justice then proceeded to justi- fy the laws under the police powers Police powers. he said. may be put forth in aid of what is sanctioned by usage, or by the prevailing nor ality. or held by strong and prepon- derant opinion to he greatly and i'm mediately necessary to the public welfare" |"

THE CALIFORNIA TOGA
 BOTH SIDES CLAIM II
The Fight Grows Fiercer as It Pro-
 ceeds.

Sacramento, Calif., an. 3.-With the arrival of Spalding and added strength to the Spalding delegation from San Diego tonight, the contest between Works and Spalding for the United States senatorship was re- newed with increased vigor on both sides. The battle was waged during the day. the encounters consisting chiefly of the statements from the opposing leaders claiming certain vic tory. But the contest was not con- fined to these assertions. There was not a member of either legislative body who has not had the contending claims expounded to him in every possible light, and, while no accurate forecast of the vote can be made, it is admitted that the pressure brought from both sides has been sufficient to confuse the lines between the pro- gressives and reactionaries.
 Lissner and his followers smilingly declare that no contest is on: that the Works following has been thor oughly sounded and there can be no possible detection from their ranks.
 Tt is conceded to be Southern California's turn, and the south has overwhelmingly declared for Works" 1" said Lissner today.
 The senate today held two sessions. The house held one. and the two to- gether held a joint session al which
Arizona republican., 1911-01-04

the vote for governor and lieutenant governor in the November election was canvassed. It was declared that Johnson was elected governor and Wallace lieutenant governor of the state of California. There was in this instance just a formality ob- served because the law specifies. but it took a good deal of time. the vote from each county being canvassed separately, as is legally necessary.
 The filing of a contest in the morning session of the senate and the approval of the disposition of about one-fifth of the patronage of the upper house in the afternoon ses- sion used up most of the time of that body. The house devoted itself most ly to routine business.
 The senator whose seat is contested is Daniel P. Reagan from the Eighth senatorial district, San Francisco. Against him is Thomas NJ. Searey. who admits that Reagan received the highest number of votes in the cleo ton, but he ayers that at the time of the election he had not resided in the district one year. as provided by law. The contest was referred to the committee on elections.

 The pulverizing room was being given it's weekly cleaning At such times it is the custom to draw all fires in the furnaces below. Whether this had been overlooked or one of the ten workmen struck a match, ig- hitting the dust, has not been deter mined. But a terrific explosion blew the ten men in all directions. Nine of them were blown through doors and windows and out into the snow and their dust covered clothing be- came ignited.
 Screaming with pain, they fled. oc- casionally stopping to roll in the snow in an effort to smother the flames. Other workmen of the plant pursued the fleeing men. As two of them wre overtaken they fell ex- hausted and died where they lay. The others were finally captured but not until their clothing had been burned from their bodies and the flesh was burned. One of the victims died on the way to the hospital and three others succumbed in the afternoon. The three remaining in the hospital are frightfully burned and two can not live All the dead and injured are foreigners.
 The cement works were wrecked. The loss will run into the thousands.

While l have a wide and long experience in public speaking have never yet learn ed to speak in favor of my own cleo ton"
 After telling at length of his vote on various other measures. Mir Lodge took up the tariff saying in part: T have been a member of the commit tee on finance only two years, but during that time, the committee. which deals with all matters. relating to the revenue and treasury. as we'll as banking and currency. considered and reported the tariff hill of 1909. I knew that it had defects like all tariff laws, but l also knew that it was a great improvement on the law which it supplanted.
 T voted for it because it established a customs court. contained a maxi mum and minimum provision. great measure of reciprocity. and tariff board the first step to what is l think a great reform.
 Il voted for it because it removed the duty on hides. for which l had labored for years. and upon which I broke with my committee and led the fight in the senate. l voted for it because it made art free and min- eral oil free and reduced the duty on meat. lumber. coal. iron ore and scrap iron: because it readjusted the schedules of jewelry. watches. cotton goods and other great industries which are of vital importance tO New and Massachusetts.
