CARNEGIE ON THE TARIFF.
Says No Protective Tariff Is Needed
on Steel Rails.

Washington, Jan. 12.-Andrew Car
the house committee of inquiry on
the United States Steel corporation,
admitted that he recommended the
appointment of Philander c.. Knox
the present secretary of state as at
Itorney.general in President Mckinleys
cabinet in 1901, Mr. Knox having been
one of the chief counsellors for the
Carnegie Steel company since 1890,
when the Sherman antitrust law was
passed.
Mr.. Carnegie repeatedly had declar-
ed before the committee that he never
knew that the participation of his
company in the steelplate pool and
other like pools was unlawful, and
Representative McGillicuddy os Maine
sought to show that he had recon-
mended to President Mckinley the
appointment of Mr.. Knox after the
latter, as counsel for his company,
had left him in ignorance Of the stat
utes so many years.
Mr.. Carnegie also told The commit.
tee that he believed no protective tar
| if was necessary on steel rails or
steel products, with the exception Of
needles, that are not manufactured
! in this country. He asserted that
congress need have no fear that for
eign rails would flood the United
States if the tariff We're removed.
When asked if he did not think the
government regulation, which he rec
commended was bordering dangerously
on socialism, Mr. Carnegie declared
that socialism had no terrors for him.

is COLD WAVE BETWEEN
HIM AND SENATOR LA
TOILETTE.

Washington, Jan. 12.-Albert B.
Cummins, senator from Iowa. may
soon announce that he will be can
didate for the republican presidential
nomination.
According to friends of the senator,
Mr.. Cummins is receiving letters from
republicans, regulars and progressives
alike, urging him to get into the race.
1t is represented that strong pres
sure is being brought to bear on Mr.,
Cummins in this connection, and he
may not be able longer to resist. The
La Toilette boom has gone into par
tial eclipse since the prominence given
Col. Roosevelt as a probable candi-
date, and should Mr.. Cummins now
project himself into the field there
would be blood ON the moon.
1t is known here that there is a
coldness between Mr., La Folette and
Mr.. Cummins due to the conflicting
ambitions, and regulars say that if
the Iowa senator becomes a candi,

Wesley LOSES
false Teeth
CALAMITY eEFALLS SOUTH DA.
kOTA lNSURGENT
LEADER.

Sioux Falls, S. d., Jan. 1.-THE
governor of South Dakota lost his
false teeth yesterday, and for hours
he remained in the privacy of his
room at the Cataract hotel, hid away
from the vulgar gaze of the throng in
the hotel. When the governor looked
into the mirror the reflection present
ed was sight The executives
mouth looked like Wind cave and the
two lone snags in front were as bleak
shafts at the entrance.
When the report of the calamity
which had befap4n the mouthpiece OF
South Dakota insurgency reached the
lobby of the hotel there was conster-
nation, not to say panic. Also some
smokers.
Was not Gov. Vessey to sound the
keynote?' was asked breathlessly.
Verify he was.
Some Startling Reports.
How long could an insurgent sus-
it-,rg H,H Oh r. .r, vas dhO,Gel SER
Gus question.
How did it happen?" everyone de-
sired TO know.
One of the first reports was that
| Gov. Vessey was being waited on by
| a committee, which suggested that the
proposed conference indorse the Rich
| ards primary bill, and that this SO
| flabbergasted him that he fell into Il
| fit of coughing and swallowed his
| teeth.
This report soon was diSproved and
an explanation of the accident was of.
fered to the effect that the governor
| swallowed his teeth when he was in
| formed that some friend OF George w
Cyan would introduce a resolution in
dorsing the spectacular one for gov
ernor.
| Another wild rumOr was that the
governor threw a fit upon being in.
formed that the Sioux Falls Argus
Leader would print copy of letter
written by the governor to a friend
of Dean Sterling, in which the gov
ernor assured the dean that it he
would come out for La Toilette he
would receive the entire support of
the progressives of the state in his
fight for Senator CANDLES place,
| Found in Laundry.
| But none of these reports was true,
as was proved shortly after noon,
when, after hours of searching high
and low by all the employees OF the
hotel, a telephone message was re-
ceived from laundry saying d fine
set of teeth, inlaid with gold had been
found wrapped up in the bed linen
received from the Cataract.
| A messenger was dispatched to the
laundry in full haste and soon the lost
teeth were restored to the governor.
the glad news that he could sound
the keynote after all went forth. and
once again the country was saved, but
by a small majority.

the house steel trust committee, today
declared that the day of competition
nau passed because of the ability of
manufacturers to fix and maintain

Mr.. Carnegie was asked if he agreed
today with views he expressed two
years ago, urging government control
of corporations and regulation of
prices.

Representative Beel of Texas began

can make any business like a partner
ship" said Mr.. Carnegie. when we
We're partners | felt hat we could run
around corporations You take thirty
five young men interested in watching
even a leak in spigot and no corpo-
ration can compete with such an or
ganization in any business.
Personal Element That Counts.
1T is the same thing with the man
who owns the land and tills it. Take
Iowa, for instance When a young
man | went to Iowa on a holiday.
There I saw those beautiful farms,
those homes of triumphant democ-
racy. Those young men owned their
lands, their homes. Great Caesar,
what can a big farming corporation
do against such a condition as that?
The man who owns the land is a
man, the equal of any other man in a
triumphant democracy. Why, | have
loved Iowa ever since | saw that pic

happy frame of mind when he reached

OFF TO China
TRANSPORT LOGAN SAILS FROM
MANILA FOR THE NORTH.
WEEPING WOMEN AT WHARF
fearful Goodbyes Are Said, and the
Expedition Starts-No Women Are
Taken on the Journey-Gen. Bell
Makes Address to Troops.

Manila, Jan. i1l-- The United STATES
transport Logan left this afternoon at
2:3O with a battalion of the Fifteenth
infantry and other details on board on
the way TO Ching Wang Tao in north
ern China. The American troops
after they have disembarked, are to
be employed in guarding a section of
the Pekin railroad from Tang Shan
to Lanchow aga st the possible at
tack of either ihiperialists or repub-
lican troops.
The departure took place in the
presence of a throng of civilians and
soldiers of other regiments, while
women crowded the quay bidding
fearful farewells and wishing God
speed to the troops. No women were
allowed to accompany the expedition.
Gen, Franklin Bell commander-in-
chief of the army in the Philippines,
made a short parting speech to the Of
ficers and men of the expedition. Gen.
Bell urged the troops to show pride
in their American citizenship while
they were on foreign soil. The Chi
nese, he said, were worthy Of a square
deal, and he expected the American
soldiers to treat them in square,
worthy way. He begged the officers
and men to be very particular in re-
gard to courteSies and salutes to other
foreign officers, and he impressed on
the men the necessity for maintain
ing their reputation for cleanliness
and a neat personal appearance. In
conclusion he expressed the desira-
bility of maintaining themselves in
friendly relations with all foreigners
with whom they should come in con.
tact.
The loading of the transport Logan
midday A driving rain which fell
throughout the forenoon caused con-
siderable delay. The horses and mules
which are attached to the expedition
as gun animals and draft horses were
taken on board at the last moment.
Eight big army wagons We're also
| shipped, as we'll as an automobile
truck and one or two ambulanCeS.
Gen. Bell, accompanied by his staff,
made a thorough inspection of the
vessel and of each man of the eXpedi-
ton before noon. He talked several
minutes with the assembled officers
of the regiment, giving them their
final instructions. Capt. Peter w. Da-
wilson, Fourth infantry, one of Gen.
Bells aidesde-camp, is accompanying
the expedition to Chang Wang Tao,
but will return to Manila as soon as
the troops have landed.
AS the vessel left the quayside, the
band of the Fifteenth infantry played
a selection of patriotic airs, and there
was much waving of handkerchiefs
and flags until she was lost to view

20 BELOW AT KANSAS CITY
Thousands Out Of Work There, Suf-
fering Is Frightful.

Kansas City, Mo, Jan. l2.-Not in
twenty-five years has the southwest
experienced such severe winter con.
ditions as last night and early today.
Although the blizzard which swept
western Kansas, northern Oklahoma
and southern Missouri yesterday at
forty miles an hour had abated the
mercury today dropped to the lowest
point of the season. Twenty degrees
below zero was registered here at
o'clock today. Conditions in western
Kansas were the worst since 1886,
when the most disastrous blizzard the
state ever knew destroyed thousands
of cattle and literally drove settlers
from the state.
Train service on all western lines
was in a chaotic condition, and on
some roads was temporarily aban-
doned. The whole southwest, after
almost three weeks of extreme win
| ter, coupled with gas and transporta-
ton famine, faced situation which,
unless conditions improve within few
days, will be desperate.
Swamped by appeals for aid, the
heaviest since its organization, the
! Kansas City Provident association is
sued an announcement that unless
more contributions were received i'm
mediately starvation and freezing
among dependents would result. Thou
sands are without employment in the
city. The extended cold wave has
quadrupled demands for aid.
Record breaking temperatures eX-
tended throughout the Missouri val
ley. Sioux City felt temperature of
80 degrees below zero. At Omaha
and Lincoln it was &c below.
The Kansas state public utilities
commission and the railways today
joined in an effort to relieve condi-
tons in western towns and communi-
ties on isolated branch lines.
Merchants of Hutchinson, Kan,
banded together to send supplies to
the needy in Scott county. Where
railroads are blocked the old-fashioned
freightng wagons will be used
Reports from Junction City, Kan,
say that despite the intense cold farm
ers are drawing their wheat fifteen
miles through deep snow in order to
take advantage of present good prices.
Fragrant Hill schoolhouse, near
Junction City was destroyed by fire.
Teachers and pupils saved the con-
tents. Two children We're so badly
frozen that their condition is danger

Not since noon Thursday has a train
passed over the Santa F'e or Rock Is
land between Hutchinson and Dodge
City on the Santa Fe or Hutchinson
and Liberal on the Rock Isand. Near
Kingman, in the Texas panhandle on
the Santa Fe, six locomotives are
stalled in cut, unable TO move
either way. The crews have deserted
and sought shelter at the nearest
home.
In many towns on the roads the
railroad companies are dividing their
fuel supplies and are giving coal to
the citizens to prevent suffering. The
mercury in Topeka, Kan, registered
10 below zero and a fuel famine is
threatened there due to a shortage OF
natural gas
