 SEATTLE, July 26.-W. J. Roland, attorney for the Alaska Northern Railway, appeared before the house committee on territories, which is now considering the Alaska railroad bill.
 Roland stated that two groups of capitalists were prepared to finance a railroad from Resurrection bay to the Matanuska coal fields and the Panama as soon as congress should pass some bill for the opening of the coal fields. He urged that the con- struction of the railroad by the gov ernment, in the event the coal fields were opened for development, was wholly unnecessary and a waste of government money, and that as soon as assured that the restrictions at present holding the territory at a standstill were removed, private capital would construct railroads throughout the territory wherever the necessity arose, and the business to be developed would warrant.
 The attorney urged that the bill be amended so that the president be authorized to decide whether the government should build the pro- jected roads or they should be built by private capital.

 WASHINGTON, July 29.-It has leaked out today that the ideas of the President and Ambassador Will son are widely different as to the policy to be pursued in Mexico. The chief recommendations of the am bassador for the settlement of the trouble in Mexico is that the United States recognize the Huerta admins tration, and use its influence to es- tablish the same. It is alleged that in the event of the recognition of the Huerta government, Mexico will be able to. borrow a sufficient amount of money from foreign bankers to finance a successful campaign against the rebels, and put an end to the strife The President does not agree with this policy, and he is supported by the cabinet in his position. Owing to this disagreement it is extremely doubtful if Ambassador Wilson will be returned to Mexico, and it is be- lieved he will hand in his resigna- tion within 8 few days.

WHIPPLE POINTS TO

Boston, JAN fisherman l.. Whipple
told the Boston Wool Trade association
at the Copley Plaza Saturday night that
President Mellen Of the New Haven
road, on the record of his achievements,
ought to be one of the most popular
men of the community, and that his cor
poration should be regarded as a bene-
factor in the upbuilding Of New England
industries and commerce. Both the rail-
road and Mr.. Mellen were unpopular and
discredited because of attacks for the
most part entirely unwarranted and un-
just Mr.. Whipple said.
Mr.. Whipple thought, however, that
the present unsatisfactory condition of
things was due to policy on President
Mellen's part Of ignoring the rights Of
the public and Of the state in the man
agement of public service corporation.
Mr.. Whipple advocated board of, or a
single commissioner, a practical railroad
man, to exercise control over the New
England railroads, as the best means for
bringing back confidence to the railroads
and to Mr.. Mellen, whose ability as a
manager he praised very highly.
1t was notable that during Mr.. Whip.
pies address number of things that
he said in praise of Mr.. Mellen and his
were applauded, while there
was no applause for anything of a criti
cal nature that was uttered. About 200

Wants Dissolution of Preju-
dices Between Capital
and Labor

Chicago, Jan. l3.--Big business, it
right growth and it's duties to the eoun
try were discussed by President -elec
Woodrow Wilson in speech before Thu
Commercial club of Chicago Saturday
night.
Il do not care how big business
grows, provided it grows big in con
tact with keep competition" he said.
The governor made an appeal for q
dissolution of what he said were preiu'
dices in this country between capital
and labor.
Among Gov. Wilson's auditors were
bank presidents, railroad presidents and
heads of great business enterprises
Seated near him were Gov. Dineen, a
Republican, and Gov. Elect Dunn, a
Democrat.
Gov. Wilson declared that success of
enterprise depended upon the opening
up to the rank and file of the nation
not only its physical resources, but the
business credit as well.
Men had testified under oath, he said,
to the existence of an sinner circle"
by which credit was obtainable to the
exclusion OF those against whom that
inner circle sought to discriminate.
II am not drawing an Indictment
against the banking system" he said.
"That already has been convicted. But
do refer to the basis of credit in bus

sponsibility that will fall upon me

your counsel and assistance.

does not depend on the government OF
the United States it is dependent on
the business men. The government can
not breed temper, it cannot generate

der the whip of the law are done sui
lenly, somewhat reluctantly and never
successfully. The hope of America is
the changing attitude of the business
men toward the things they have to
