ing the idea of Federal control as en-
bodied In the Connecticut river bill.

The committee faced ali enormous

mittee will have to study carefully.
The question as to whether the bill

determined by a caucus to De held the
first week of the special session.
Democrats generally are in favor cf
the omnibus. bill, which they viii handle

The tariff bill will be reported imme-
diately after the opening of the special
session. and the new Congress will

work of its regime-the revision of the
tariff law from one of protection to one
of competition.
No minority report on the Democra-

RIGGS BANK MAN
DEFENDS ACTION OF
MORGAN IN PANIC
Financier and CorteIyou Are
Both Praised for Work Done

An echo OF the panic of 1907, with a

and former Secretary .Cortelyou, vas
heard at a hearing before the House
Committee on Expenditures in the
Treasury Department today, when Mil
ton e. Allies, vice president of the Riggs
Bank, testified.
Mr.. Ailes appeared in opposition to
the Cooke bill providing for competitive
bidding by banks en- deposits Of Gov
ernment funds. but the hearing switched
to a discussion of general banking
methods. currency reform, and panics.
Chairman Cox criticised the fact that
Secretary Corteiyou had dumped $25.-

Mr.. Cortelyou both rendered service

country"
II have never been able to see any
philanthropy in the acts Of Mr.. Morgan

Morgan didn't get the money" an
swered Mr.. Allies. Secretary Cortenyon
turned the money into the national
banks. Morgan conducts private

"Yes, but Mr.. Morgan virtually hand
led the money" said Chairman Cox
"Of course he was consulted because
of his pre-eminence as financer." said
Mr.. Allies. 1T was the only thing to
do and il had to be done right at that
moment or the loss to the country
would have been hundreds of millions
why could not the banks have offes-
ed interest for the Government money
at the time? Wouldn't that have done
the public as much good?'
Says Banks Were Scared.
"The banks probably would have
been glad to pay interest for IL, but
they would have Immediately locked
the money in their vaults. All of
them wanted "a reserve. They were

THREE BATTLESH|PS
NEEDED, SAYS MEYER
Despite Imminent End of Term,
Navy Head Will Fight Untd
Close of Session.

Three battleships. not two. are the
real requirements of the United States
navy, according to Secretary of the
Navy Meyer.
"Three Should be the minimum this
year. Two battleships have been pro-
vided annually by Congress- said Mr..
Meyer. when informed that the House
would probably vote two battle
ships only. until last year. when only
one vessel was built. Three should be
provided this year in order to complete
the division begun with the Pennsyl-
vania.' -
Despite ,the fact that Mr.. Meyer will
leave office IN four weeks he is going to
continue until the close of Congress his
demand for three battleships. He as
serts that weakness Invites attack and
that the addition of q single battleship
Will add much strength to the navy,
whereas its lack will leave the navy in
a weakening position with respect to

FOUR ARE DASHED TO
DEATH BY JUMPING IN
PACIFIC HOTEL FIRE

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. -Four men
We're killed and twelve injured today
in a fire that destroyed the San Pedro
and Maritime hotels in East street, near
the Ferry building The blaze was one
Of the most spectacular seen here in
years. and the entire water front was
endangered.
The men leaped from the fourth story
Of the Maritime hotel and were crushed
to death
The fire burned so rapidly that the
fremen were unable to get ladders to
the upper windows before those inside
were forced to jump.
A number were carried down from
the lower stories The others injured
were guests who were also forced to
jump.
While the fire was at its height snow
fell. It is the first time there has been
snow in San Francisco since 1897. and
the storm divided the attention of the
crowd.
The firemen after the first futile ef-
forts made no effort to save the hotels,
but confined their work to saving the
shipping and the dock structures. The
blaze was finally controlled. The loss
is estimated at $500, 600.

Mother Smothers Flaming Cloth
ing of Baby She Left Playing

A race for life as thrilling as any ever
depicted in Hal Reid melodrama was
made this morning when NJ F. Flynn,
a switchman for the Western and At
lantic railroad. rushed his baby
boy, badly burned, from the In
man Yards on locomotive to a wait

then carried the child to the Grady hos

Little Elmore Flynn, two years old
was toasting his toes in front of big
crate fire as his father waved a good

The mother busted herself cleaning the
house and went into the yard for a mo
ment or two.
Screams from the boy brought her
back and when she rushed into the
room the child's clothes were afame
and the youngster was badly burned
The mother grabbed him, mindless Of
the peril TO herself, and extinguished
the flames, which had burned away
most of the baby's clothes and had ter
nbly scorched his face, arms and body
The mothers hands were badly
burned.
Neighbors attracted to the scene hur-
ried out to the Inman Yards, but a step
away, and summoned the father. The
child was carried to the engine cab
and at full steam the locomotive start
ed for the city.
An automobile was waiting at the
Pryor street crossing and the child
was placed tenderly in the machine and
rushed to Grady hospital. The doctors
there considered the child's condition
critical and were doubtful of the posi-
bility of saving its life.
