RATE HEARING
 |S STILL ON
It Will Take Several Days Yet to Finish the Taking of Testimony; More Of ficials Arrived in Town Yesterday

Several more railroad officials ar rived here yesterday to attend the passenger rate hearing before the corporation commission. It contin- ued all day yesterday and will last for several days yet in all probability, though some of the higher officials expect to get away tonight. Most of them are stopping at the Hotel Ad- ans. the lobby of which just now looks like a railroad mems convention hall Among those in attendance not previously mentioned are: Chas. $. Fee. general traffic manager of the Southern Pacific. at san Francisco;
 r E. Battrus. general passenger agent of the same line in Los An geles; F. E. Bretherton Of the $. P. in Los Angeles; Eugene Fox. general passenger agent of the JE. P. & $. w;

 sistant to the manager and Auditor

 Yesterday morning James Peabody,
 statistician of the Santa F'e. at Chi cago, continued his testimony before the commission He finished his di-
 rect examination and furnished many comparisons of earnings on various lines, and at different periods ,f z. IJ gave great deal of information con- corning that line and the Grand Can yOn road. He showed that the latter operated at a great loss so far as traffic is concerned and it was only offset by the profits of the Fl Tovar hotel at the canyon. which cleared up s70.000 last year, the line being op- erated almost exclusively as a tourist road. The hotel was enabled to make money by shipping in it's supplies gratis which in turn is done for the | Fred Harvey company by reason of 1 it's contractual relations and free ser vice to the road elsewhere. Figures | were also given showing earnings and i comparisons on other roads
 l In the afternon session Mr Hughes { LIIllSi4tu HIS ltSIIIllOllN anu MT. 1JIdkC ! general manager of the $. F. P. & P. 1 took the stand.

 NEW YORK. April 23.--Col Roose- welt, in a statement given out to- night, dealing with his correspondence with Representative Gardner, of Mas SdchuSetts, in the matter of the atti- tude of President Taft toward Senator LOrimer. denies he charged Senator Lorimer had President Tafts assist ance or support

 T know that originally a year and quarter ago or whereabouts. Presi- dent Taft was against Lorimer heard conflicting reports as to what his attitude has been since, but l know that that attitude has favored Lorimer, as shown in Lorimers ac- tion in earnestly and cordially sup porting President Taft, and by the action of all the most prominent Taft leaders in the senate in supporting LOrimer."
 Roosevelt further denies Gardner's accusation that he suppressed the rep resentations of Herbert Knox Smith, commissioner of corporations, with re- gard to the harvester trust. or that he made exceptions in instituting pro- ceedings against "favorite trusts of mine"

SCHWAB HAS CLEAR
 BUSINESS VISION
In Anticipation of Future He Will Build a Huge Dry Dock on
 Pacific Coast
1 [HSS0cidtcd Press DiSbdtchl

SAN FRANCISCO, April 23. - One possible reason why Charles M Schwab. of the Bethlehem Steel com pany and Union Iron Works, decided to build the most capacious dry dock in the world at Hunters Point, San Francisco, has been made known by Edward C. Holmes of this city, who prepared the tentative plans for SchWab's inspection. In anticipation of new business that win be brought to the Pacific coast by the opening of the Panama canal private capital, to be aided by a subsidy of three and third per cent from the Dominion government, to run for thirty five years, he will build a dry dock 92S feet long at Esquimalt, B. C. on the strait Juan de Fuca
 Holmes drew the plans. "SchWab is planning to outmeasurc the EsqU- mault." said Holmes. No American building company enjoys a government subsidy. but the biggest dry dock in the world could bid for navy business by shipping men here. Ii was pointed out today that the presence of such d dock would remove one of the objec- tions heretofore raised against the policy Of maintaining q battleship fleet on the Pacific coast

DOCTOR PLEADS
 FOR ASyLUM M
"I Know I Shall Die in a Maniac's Cell";; Pitiful Case of Unusual Interest Heard Yesterday in Su- perior Court

Il know that shall die in d maniacs cell. and 1 want to be sent to the asylum. That is the place for me. You will be doing me no injus- tice by sending me there
 The speaker was Dr Daniel J. Rea- gan. for many years attached to Bellevue hospital, New York. and as sistant to many of the great phYsi- clans and surgeons in the east. two decades ago.
 Apparently in complete possession of his faculties; his replies to ques- tions moulded in choicest diction, and bearing every evidence of man of education and refinement Dr. Reagan pleaded in superior court yesterday afternoon for a commitment to the state asylum for the insane.
 'I am siXty-tWo years old. I have no family. not d relative in the world. I believe that | have softeniug of the brain. I am unable to care for my self l am without funds. My head is buzzing. I shall die a maniac. Please. gentlemen. let me go to the asylum.
 The scene was d pitful one, An apparently able bodied man begging to be saved from himself and con fined in a mad house. For moment the court was undecided, then upon the evidence of pr. Wilson who has been attending the petitioner. the commitment was ordered, ard later in the evening Dr. Reagan was re- moved to the asylum.
 The commitment is temporary in it's character and it is the opinion of those who have examined the man that he will not be detained at the institution longer than q month. AL though perfectly sober at the hear ing Reagan has been drinking heavily and County Physician Tafel diagnosed the case as one of alcoholic melan- cholia.
 For twelve years Reagan has been resident of Florence, but failing health and the fear that he will dc himself harm have brought him to the position he occupied in court yester- day
