Letter to Chief Executive Making
Promises Of Assistance Has Arous-
ed Interest Of all Who Know Faith
er of Existing Tariff Act, Now that
He is Boosting for Free Trade.
tBy Associated Press.)

Washington, D. c., Feb. 20.-Sena-
tor Aldrch, chairman OF the finance
committee of the senate, has written
to President Taft that he favors con-
tirmatiOn of the Canadian reciprocity
agreement. Whether the letter makes
promises of assistance in getting ac-
ton in the senate at the present ses-
sion, has not been disclosed, but SEN
ators who have seen the letter inti-
mate that the senator will do all he
can to aid the president in carrying
his program through the senate.
The announcement that Senator AID
existing tariff act, had subscribed to
the terms of the reciprocity agreement
with Canada was received with great
surprise in the senate, especially by
the "standpat" senators, who have
come out against the agreement on
the ground that it is not in COM
pliance with the tenets of the repub-
lican party on the subject of protec-
ton.
Some of these senators were lOath
to believe the report that the chair
man of the finance committee, who
in tariff fights has always been found
on the side of protection for every
industry, whether manufacturer, agri-
cultural or mining, had endorsed the
presidents program for free trade
with Canada. Early in the present
session Aldrich was compelled to
leave Washington on account of his
health. He is spending the winter at
Jekyl Island, Ga. and although he
is much better than when h lit here
it is not likely he will be able to take
any further part in tariff legislation
for his service in the senate will end

SENATOR'S CONSTRUE INGALLS,
STATEMENT As MEANING
EXTRA SESSION.
Practically All the Provisions OF the
Naval Appropriation Measures Have
Been Agreed to With the Exception
Of the Billing Program Which is
Expected to 90 Thrugh.
(ey Associated Press.)

Washington, D. c., Feb. 20.-The
naval appropriation bill was consid
cred at great length in the house dur
in an afternoon and night session to-
day, and practically all of the pro-
visions of the measure were agreed
to with the exception of new billing
program which will come up tomor'
row and which is expected to precipi'
tate lively fight. The bill provides
for two battleships of superior dread
nought type, carrying twelve IA inch
guns; two fleet colliers; eight torpe-
do boat destroyers and four subma'
rines. An attempt will be made both
to decrease and increase this program
but the committee believes it has
enough votes to carry it through.
Chairman Foss of the naval commit
tee, stated today that Of the two sis.
ter ships now under construction, one
at the New York navy yard is costing
$6,4OO, 1000, and one by private contract
$3,90O,00O.
Representative Fitzgerald of New
York, asserted that this was due large
ly to the practice Of charging "over-
head costs at navy yards to ship
under construction, and he succeeded
in striking from the bill on point Of
order the provision that both the dr.
rect and indirect charges shalld be
included in the cost of ships.
Senators who discussed today the
statement issued by Representative
Mccall following his Sunday inter-
view with President Taft, construed 1t
to mean that an extra session of con-
gress surely would be called by the
president in the event that the sena-
tors failed to act on the reciprocity
agreement.

Washington. d. c., Feb 20.-No1
for years hafc so many far-reaching
principles relating to interstate COM
mercc been approved by the supreme
court of the United States as were es-
tablshcd in its decisions today as the
unquestioned law of the land. The de-
cisons on a number of difficult ques-
tiOns were announced.
Among the qcstions of interstate
commerce decided were these:
That passenger has no right to buy
tickets with services, advertising, re-
leases or property, nor can railroad
company buy services, advertising, re-
leases or property with transportation.
That state laws regulating the size
of crews on trains within the state is
not all obstruction to interstate COM
merce, but is rather enacted in aid of
interstate commerce, and may be pass
cd by the state for public safety.
That the supreme court will review
the validity of an order of the inter-
state commerce commission, even
though the two year limitation of the
life of an order has expired.
That a railway system may not es-
cape regulation as an instrument of in
terstate commerce because one of its
constituent parts is wharfage COM
pany. and its dominating power over
the wharfage company rests in The fact
that it is holding company.
That the interstate commerce cor

Washington, D. c., Feb. 2O.-Fili-

gress during this session became thing
Of the past today when the house vot-
ed by large ma jority for rule which
when invoked by two-thirds vote as
to any pending measure forthwith re-
duces the time of debate to forty min
utes, and cuts off all amendments. The
rule was Immediately invoqed against
the filibuster on the onibus war claims
bill, and to that measure a house bill
substitute for the senate bill was passed
in short order.
The house bill cuts out all of the
French spoilation and navy yard over
time claims. There is not a great deal
of hope that it will be accepted by the
senate Characterized as gag" by
some of its opponents, the rule adopted
today can only be brought into play
when two-thirds OF the house desire
it. And even the passage of bill un-
der suspension provided for can only
be accomplished by two-thirds vote.
In the rules committee it was pro-
posed at first to allow majority to in

Dawson is now awaiting the arrival
OF Alfred Membraeno from Ceiba,

The conference is expected to be-

avowedly Bonilla's personal friend,
ROsales, asserts that rather than ac-

minority party would always be in a
position to muster more than a one
third membership of the house and
could therefore defeat any undesirable
measure. Through this power of veto,
it was further stated, the democrats
were in position to demand that the
appropriation bills called up under the
rule be put in satisfactory shape.
That the new rule was not intended
wholly as a stem roller" but as a
means of ending useless filibusters,
was demonstrated within a very few
hours after its adoption.
The house resumed the consideration
of the naval appropriation bill under
ordinary rules. More than two hours
were spent in general debate, and then
the reading of the bill for amendment
under the five minute rule was begun.
The naval bill, as reported from the
committee, calls for the repeal of the
eight hour clause in the building of
battleships and other naval vessels at
private yards. 1t also provides for
two battleships 1t was not believed by
those in charge of the measure that the

Peking, China, Feb. 20.-There is

measures are being strictly enforced
in all towns where few weeks ago
the disease was allowed full swing

issued that every village burn it's

over riden the Chinese superstition
against cremation of bodies of vic

is applied to piles of hastily con-
structed collins, among which are Of

ing in the streets where they have
been placed by relatives. Sleds then
transport them to the west gate and
from there they are removed in cabs

Every house is inspected daily. I'm.

the streets, is now removed each day

The Mukden authorities are prompt

outbreaks occur. and this precaution,
it is believed. will result in checking
the spread of the disease.
