VIRGINIA'S PROTEST
AGAINST OCCOQUAN
Will Repeal Act Which Allows Fed
eral Government to Ac-
quire Territory.
Special 10 Thc Washinrton Heold.

Special to The Washington Herald
Richmond. Va, Jan. s1.-The sentiment
Of protest in this State against the es-
tablishment at Occoquan of a workhouse
and reformatory for District of Column
bia offenders has found expression in a
bill which has been introduced in the
legislature repeating the act allowing the
United States to acquire land In Virginia
by purchase. condemnation or otherwise
and then assume Jurisdiction over the
territory thus acquired.
1t was this act upon the Virginia stat
ute books which enabled the United
States to secure a large tract az Deco
guam and place thereon several hundred
vagrants and minor Offenders Many Of
these people escape and wander through
The surrounding country, a condition
which has led to much objection.
The house committee on Federal rela-
tons yesterday agreed to Unanimously
report the repeating bill and there is no
doubt Of the passage OF the measure.
Much regret is now expressed that the
original act was enacted, but Virginia
does not propose to be again caught in
the same trap.

CABLE CONDUIT TO
REACH THECAPITAL
After March, Nothing Can Sever
Washington's Communication
with the Outside World.

After the middle of March it will be
impossible for storms, no matter how
severe, TO sever communication between
Washington and the outside world. At
that time the underground conduit, con-
tanning a cable in which will be seventy
nine separate wires, which is being con-
structed between this city and New York,
will be finished, and though storms may
blow down overhead wires, Washington,
through New York, Will be able to main
tain communication with all sections.
Work on the conduit, which is being
installed by the American Telegraph and
Telephone Company, has been in progress
for more than two years. The conduit
proper is completed. 1t runs from Wash
inGton to New York, passing through
Baltimore, Wilmington, and Philadelphia
The only work remaining to be done is
10 install the cable in the conduit A
number of tests must be made, and, al
though to date the wires have been found
to work satisfactorily, further tests
which probably will hold up the for
mality of putting the underground sys-
TEN into active operation for six weeks
or two months, must be made.
Planned for Telephone.
The underground system is designed pri-
mariIy for the long-distance telephone,
although it will be possible to make ar
rangements to use the wires for tele-
graphic purposes also.
The severe storm on the night before
and the day of the Inauguration of Presi-
dent Taft cut this city of from COM
munication with the outside world for
a number of hours. Under the new sys-
TEN nothing short Of an earthquake will
damage the conduit.

carried on by P. G. Burton. former plant

graph and Telephone Company in this

NO SENSATIONAL
PROBE EXPECTED
Outlook Is that Conservatism Will
Control Proposed Inquiry
Into Money Trust.

A canvass of the Democratic member
ship Of the House completed yesterday
discloses that a large majority are op-
posed to a spectacular inquiry into the
affairs Of the money trust, as proposed
by Representative Henry, of Texas. It
IS now predicted that the special inquiry,
bergh resolutions. will be defeated at the
caucus to be held on February by a
vote of probably two to one IL the pledges
that have been made are adhered TO.
Upon the defeat of the Henry-Lind-
bergh proposal the caucus will be asked
to authorize the Banking and Currency
Committee of the House to make an in
vestigation with a view to remedial legis-
lation that shall be preceded by such in
quiry as committees usually hold in con-
sidering measures Of large Importance.
Bryan Personally Interested,
That William J. Bryan has been in
formed OF the activities of conservatives
to head Off a sensational inquiry into the
ahairs OF the money trust is indicated
in kilograms that have been received
here within the past twenty-four hours
The Democratic members of the Rules
Committee and Bryan men in the House
urging them to stand by Representative
Henry in his fight to force the adoption
Of his resolution. The conservatives he
lieve that Mr.. Bryan's counsel on this
question will be ignored.
1t was said yesterday that Mr., Henry
has double purpose in fighting for a
special committee of inquiry on the
money trust. 1t was charged that in the
first place he is anxious to do the bid
ding Of Mr.. Bryan, and that in the sec
ond place he hoped to place himself at
the head Of an investigation upon whicL,
be believed the spotlight would pIay for
long time to come.
Henry's PyrotechnicaI Talk.
The probability Of the defeat of HI.
resolution by the conservative action ~
the caucus led Mr.. Henry yesterday "a |
issue a pyrotechnical interview WITH |
himself in which he asserted that TTn-
dustrial America is reaching a STATE .,
absolute subsection and seryItnda
condition of vassalage to the 800
money combination and money loTJs - |
He says that this combination has .a.h
power OF life and death over all busi- !
ness and that the people are now con.
trolled by "a business and fnancIal
aristocracy." He adds that this ''modern
aristocracy, this money or business arjs-
tocracy, has no country, no warm hIood
in its veins, no conscience, and rsraIS,
any human ties" He wants tine rerso
setatives Of the people to fnyestipato
how and by what means this aristocrac,,
has been and is being built.
