BILLS GOING THROUGH
Legislature, With But Ten Days Left,
Scores By Passing Public Service
Rate Measure.
DUNN AMENDMENTS ALLOWED

{
st. Paul, April 1O.-The senate
passed the y. y Nolan house bill 80
to stvinE nunic litiea power -
regulate the rates and service Of pub
lie service corporations. Il -s.
A plea was made for it in behalf Of
Minneapolis, which has no home rule
charter, and which II the public util-
ity bills should by any chance fail to
pass would be left without much, II
any power over Its public service cor
porations. The measure by Its terms,
however, applies to all communities.
The senate bill passed the house
two vars ago, butt too late to be reach
ed in thessenate before adjournment.
The house passed the Bendixen-
Schwartz bill divorcing the state
boards of grain appeals from the rail-
road and warehouse commission and
giving it independent jurisdiction
with power to employ its own samp-
lers, etc. The vote was 81 to %.
The authors of the bill are mem
bers Of the house committee which
has been Investigating the grain
trade, but they were opposed on this
bill by Representative d. p. O'Neill Of
Thief River Falls, also a member of
the committee, who said that the bill
gave the appeal boards unlimited
power to spend money out of the
grain inspection fund without any
check whatever and that so far as
Independent sampling was concern
Led, the railroad and warehouse COM
mission had offered to let the boards
choose their own samplers. He also
commended that the boards had not
been hampered by the commission in
their work
The house concurred in the senate
amendments to the r. c. Dunn road
bill and repassed 1t as amended. 1t
will go to the governor as soon as 1t
is enrolled.

Meets With Committee.

Washington, April 1O.-In the in
terest of success for the Democratic
tariff revision bill, the president
stepped over another obstacle in the
way of perfect harmony between the
White House and the directing forces
of congress. - ...s.'
For the second successive day he
left his own office in the White House
and Journeyed to the capitol, this time
Fftes=saa sSheuF-and-.-as.s hall withsthe=
Democratic members Of the senate I'm
ance committee. 49, 8.
At its conclusion the president stat
ed frankly he and the members of the
senate had agreed on nothing that
stood in the way of harmonious sup
port of the "party platform" as to
tariff revision. The senate situation
was canvassed In detail at the confer
ence %s So
Dangers that might threaten s sin
gle bill, should the opponents OF free
sugar and free wool combine with
sufficient strength to endanger the
Democratic majority In the senate
were discussed, but no agreement was
reached bindingsthe senate leaderAto
any definite lipeSof action. e
While the senate conference was in
progress, full Democratic member
ship Of the house was in caucus. dis
cussing the details ofsthe tarih bill,
the first schedule of which was agreed
to without a change. .s .. ~.
Representative Underwood, Demo-
cratic leader of the house, stated at
the conclusion of the days caucus
that tariff revision would go through
the house as single bill. 81.
! At a conference with the senator's,
the president said: 81 hope the sem
ators and representatives will permit
me to come here frequently and con-
fer with them in a. way to save their
time and mine.
An Investigation is to be made to
determine the amount of strength be-
ling mustered by the opponents of the
free sugar and free wool provisions.
AS result of yesterdays conference
lit is believed the president will not
object if the senate leaders determine
lit essential that the tariff be split into
number of single measures.

Washington, April 10 President
Wilson got out his nice gold pass to
the American League games today.

to clean up his desk in q hurry SO that
he could open the baseball season
here late this afternoon.

the first ball to lanky Walter John

bring good luck during the season to
the home team. 10
Vice President Marshall said today
when he arrived at his office at the
senate that he also hoped to sneak
away from legislative cares and keep
a. score-card on the Washington
Yankees game. If President Wilson
follows out his tentative promise, he
may be real baseball president. Taft
used to take in an occasional game,
but he wasn't particularly fan. Will
son is. He knows the fine. points Of
the game. Vice President Marshall
promises to use his annual pass as
much as did his predecessor, the late,
Sunny Jim Sherman, who hardly
ever missed a home game.

The doctor was urged to try on
a straw hat and when it was once on,
he was dared to appear with it on
the street. He took the dare but was
caught by the camera before he could
escape. Mr.. Gill had dreamed that
spring was here and thought he could
start rush on straw hats If some one
would set the ball rolling.
The doctor did his part but the
weather man has refused to let him
wear it since 4.

American League

In the American League.


In the American league chief inter-
est in the seasons opening turns to
four eastern clubs. The tirsh clash
between Boston and Philadelphia will
be eagerly watched as these two clubs
are hailed by critics as the strongest
in their league. They are picked to
fight out the championship and so
both will rush together at top speed
to obtain first blood and the jump
which should have psychological as
we'll as strong physical effect. Both
clubs look to be stronger and in bet
ter shape to start at good speed than
last year. The Boston Red Sox have
improved a world series winning
team while Connie Mack insists that
he has his two-time champion Athle-
tics geared again for their old time
stride and capable of picking up
where they left off when suddenly in
terrupted in 1912. Stahl in this
series will send Wood, Bedient and
O'Brien or Collins against Coombs,
Bender and Plank and the opening
session will be one Of the most bit
terly fougth of the year. 5

Left in the American league conceded

ny United Press.

New York, April 10-Sixteen major
ball clubs face the barrier today in
the grinding race which carries from
Young April into young October. In
other words the gay and giddy en-
semble has arrived again and the
most interesting season-due to a
number of mid-winter upheavals-
the game has ever known
is under way. From the far vest
from the far south and even from an
island in the Atlantic Ocean, these
sixteen clubs have come back from
: their training trips and with few
exceptions they are now ready to take
the first jump, in far better condition
than they were in April of 1912. The
pennant contenders without any sort
Of exception are in excellent condi-
ton, ready to start at top speed. The
dazzling jump which John McGraw
and his Giant obtained last. year put
other rivals upon their. guard so. ill
conditioned Clubs will not be among
those in today's annual getaway.
The opening schedule is as follows:
American League.
Philadelphia at Boston.
New York at Washington. .
Chicago at Cleveland.
Detroit at St. Louis. 49,.
National League.
Pittsburgh at Cincinnati.
st. Louis at Chicago.
Brooklyn, at Philadelphia.
Boston at New York.
Brooklyn opened day in advance
to dedicate her new ball park but
with this one game played switches
back for the regular start in Phila-
delphia.
