WILL NOT DISCUSS
ALLEGED LETTERS
Roosevelt Is Also Certain that Flor
ida Republicans Will Elect
Taft Delegates.

Oyster Bay. y. Y, Feb. -Presl-
dent Roosevelt to-day expressed sincere
regret concerning Senator La Follette's
condition, but added, when asked what
effect the Senator's illness would have
upon the progressive movement, that the
latter was greater than any individual
in It. He said that he hoped Mr.. La
Toilette would speedily recover.
When reminded that the Florida Re-
publicaus would hold their convention to-
morrow, Col. Roosevelt predicted that
they would name Taft delegated
The colonel avoided comment upon a
letter he is supposed TO have written to
friend in West Virginia saying that he
would regard it as shirking a plain
duty II he refused a nomination at the
hands of the Chicago convention IL the
Republican party insisted on putting IT
to him. He observed:
II cannot talk about. letters I may or
may not have written. will not say
that wrote that letter. I have author
lied no one to make any Of my letters
public
In the letter attributed to the ex-Presi-
dent, he is said to have predicted that
Taft will be renominated. Asked about
that, Mr.. Roosevelt calculated:
81 have said III not discuss any sup
posed letters of mine. That's all there Is
about it"

DISTRICT BILLS
REACH SENATE
Four Measures, Including Public
Utilities and Increased Pay for
Crossing Policemen, Reported.

-Four District measures, including the
Gallinger bill giving the District Com
missioners the power of a public utgli-
ties commission with authority to in
guire into the rates and service of all
public service corporations. were favor
ably reported 20 the Senate yesterday
afternoon
The public utilities bill was accom-
panied by bTiei report, strongly point
ing out its necessity to the District, and
urging its passage. The bill was report
ed with the two amendments, one ex-
empting steamboats, and railway carriers
engaged in interstate traffic from the au-
thority Of the commission, and the other
multiplying the provision in the original
bill that companies should not hold stock
in corporations engaged in the same
work.
Senator Martin. of Virginia, to whom
was referred the johnson bill passed by
the House, which eIevates crossing po-
liCemen to a rank equal to regular pre-
CinCt pdtrOlmen, reported this measure
faVorably and without amendment. This
measure gives the crossing policemen the
same increase in pay after stated terms
Of service, that is now allowed the three
grades of policemen in the regular ser
vice.
The measure, calling for the payment
OF a claim against the District held by
the estate OF Davis W. Bailey, was re-
ported with the Gallinger bill providing
for the widening. extending. and improv-
ing Of the highways on and adjoining
the Barry farm.

INFORMATION ABOUT SUGAR.
Secretary Knox Supplies House
Committee with Statistics.

President Taft sent to the House Of
Representatives yesterday a letter from
Secretary Of State Knox, giving a sum-
mary OF reports from diplomatic and
consular officers, in regard to the price
OF sugar in foreign countries. The let
ter was written by Secretary Knox in
response to a request by the House Com
mittee that is investigating the sugar in
dustTy.
The letter goes into much technical de-
tail concerning sugar as a commodity of
taxation In various countries and also
describes the methods for controlling
and regulating prices. Information Sc
cured by consular officers as to retail
trade methods in foreign countries is
also given.
Annexed to the letter of the Secretary
Is an analysis of the comparative prices
Of sugar in various foreign countries for
July and November, 1911, respectively
The statement exhibits what is described
as a practically universal increase in
retail prices between July and Noyem-
Der, 1911. It appears from the compare
tive statement that a considerable varia-
ton in prices OF similar grades fire.
qUently exists in different localities OF
the same country. In general there was
an increase ranging from l cent per
pound to 3 cents, and averaging not
far from . cents per pound on the
varieties of white sugar in ordinary use
In the respective countries.

DAY FIXED FOR
VOTE ON TREATIES
Senate Unanimously Agrees to Act
0pon Them on the Fifth
of March.

The Senate yesterday, by unanimous
consent, fixed the legislative day OF
March for viting on the treaties be-
tween the United States and Great Brit
ain and France. The agreement covers
also all pending amendments and amend
ments to be offered, in addition TO the
resolution Of ratification. The agree
ment was made at the request OF Sena-
tor Lodge, Of Massachusetts,, and met
with the hearty approval OF all Senators.
Senator Hepburn, who objected last
week. was in his seat to-day. but SEEM
ed content with the proposal.
Prior to Senator Lodges request,
however, Senator Hepburn arose to a
question of personal privilege, and re-
marked that some one In tho Senate
had been guilty of bad manners" He
read a dispatch which he said had been
sent out of Washington. This stated
that when Senator Hepburn blocked the
unanimous consent agreement last week
he had made a long speech. during which
AL of the Democrats OF the Senate. ex-
cept MARITIME, Of New Jersey, left the
chamber, as did most Of the Repub-
licans."
II do not think that correspondent
who is given the privileges Of the gal
lery should send out a dispatch, thus re-
fiecting on the manners OF all the Demo-
Gratis except Senator MARITIME" said
Senator Hepburn, and the Senate smiled.

SENATORS FIGHT
WAR OYER AGAIN
Proposition to Appropriate fol
VickSburg Monument Leads
to a Debate.

A bill providing for the appropriation
OF $4,000 for the erection at VicksburE,
Miss, of monument to the Confederate
navy precipitated a debate in the SEN
ate between Senator Hepburn. of Idaho,
and Senator John Sharp Williams, OF
Mississippi The bill had been favorabIy
reported by the Committee on Military
Affairs Senator Hepburn objected TO its
consideration when IL was reached on the
calenda". Senator Williams appealed in
vain for the consideration OF the meas
ure. Mr.. Hepburn would not withdraw
his objection, and the Senate was occu-
pied for an hour or more in the discus
sion without action.
Senator Hepburn disclaimed any de-
sire TO wave the bloody shirt" He said
that he had Fever voluntarily brought
UP any subject relating to the civil war
and begged that that ghost be allowed
to lie dead in its grave for all time"
He declared that he himself had not
Participated in the struggle, but said
that his views were inherent.
Senator Williams declared That when a
man 'fnherits more than his father feels,
he inherits too much" The statement
provoked laughter, and was resented by
Senator Hepburn. Mr.. williams ex-
planned that he meant no personal refec-
ton, but insisted that the surviving Fed
erdl soldiers entertained no such feelings
about the Southern soldiers as those
cherished by the Senator from idaho. In
support OF this he recited that the bin
had its inception in the mind Of a Fed
eTal soldier and had been fayorably re-
ported to the Senate by a Federal SOL
der.
Slngularly enough. shortly after the de-
bate between Senators Williams and
Hepburn had closed and the bill had been
passed over, there was reached on the
calendar a House resolution, directing
the Sencretary OF War to loan to the
Confederate veterans reunion, to be held
at Macon, Ga, such tents and cots as
might be needed by the arrangements
committee to accommodate the Confed-
crate veterans attending the reunion.
Senator Hepburn was absent from the
chamber, and the resolution was passed
without comment or objection from any
Quarter.

WANTS new LAW
ON GAS FIXTURES
Bill introduced Providing Criminal
Prosecution for Those Install
ing Dangerous Appliances.

The District Commissioners are en-
powered 10 authorize the investigation OF
all gas lighting. heating, and cooking ar
rangements installed in the District in a
bill introduced in the House yesterday
afternoon by Representative Austin, OF
Texas.
In his measure Representative Austin
provides a punishment of both fine and
Imprisonment for violations of such reg
ulations as the Commissioners may pre-
pare TO ''minimize the danger from de-
fective gas fixtures" and allows the Of
ficials 10 condemn all plants insta led
falling below the requirements Of the
proposed law which are installed prior
to its enaction.
In explaining this measure, Mr.. Austin
stated last night that the existing dan
ger, as cited by deaths occurring from
time TO time through defective heating
and lighting plants, demanded attention.
Authority. he said. should be given the
District officials TO prosecute criminally
those dealers who, in taking advantage
of the present laxity OF the law, sold to
building contractors "contrivances" that
imperiled the users.
There are in the District said Mr.
Austin, plants of different kinds that
should be condemned. They have been
put into houses simply because there is
no law to prevent their sale. This act
aims TO remedy this condition.
The bill provides for a regular inspec-
ton of the stores OF the city, with the
buildings in course OF construction, and
allows the inspectors. appointed by the
District Commissioners, to order the re-
movsI Of such fixtures as they deem un-
safe.
The punishment for violation of the
proposed law is a fine ranging from 800
TO $500, or Imprisonment from six months
to one year, or both.

hotel asphyxiated. The young men came
here yesterday from their homes in the
country in an automobile. They took rooms
at the hotel and friends calling for them
to-day could not enter their rooms. To-
night the escape of gas gave the clew te
their failure to open the door, and, break.
