Taft Order Criticised.

Ever since Mr.. Taft issued his IA
nous order, which with a similar one
by Mr.. Roosevelt put every third anc
fourth-class postmaster in the country
in the classified service, it has beer
subjected to vigorous criticisms by
Democrats, who charged that its pur
pose was to keep in office through Mr.
Wilson's term thousands of Republi
ans who were not in sympathy with
the administration and who were given
such protection merely to keep the Re.
publican political machine in working
order.

The president will be advised to go
upon the principle that any man who sub
scribes to the Democratic platform and
shows his belief in Democratic principles
" politically III for office. Personal fit
ness. OF course. will be considered first,
but the question of state factions OF pre
convention alliances will have little
weight. This disposition has been shown
in the first batch OF presidential appoint
ments. Some OF the most prominent men
whom the president thus far has named
opposed his nomination at Baltimore.
The appointment today OF John Skclton
Williams assistant secretary Of the
treasury was viewed by callers at the
White house as an example of the selec-
tlon of an independent Democrat Tho
selection OF Beverly T. Galloway to be
assistant secretary Of agriculture Ia re-
garded as an appointment in which po-
litical affiliations were not considered

REPORT CURRENCY BILL;
EXPECT VOTE FEBRUARY |
Debate on Measure to Last Until End
of Special Session-Made Un-
finished Business.

Washington, Nov 25.-The currency
bill, with the amendments proposed
by the divided senate banking and
currency committee, was laid before
the senate on Saturday. Debate on
the measure began, but lie final vote
is not expected much before Febru-
airy l.
The two factions of the committee,
headed by Senator Owen and Senator
Hitchcock, filed their divergent views
on the administration measure and the
bill as passed by the house was made
the unfinished business" of the SEN
ate.
Senator Owen fired the opening gun
in the debate for the administration
forces. Senator Hitchcock will follow
with an attack on the administration
proposals in a speech setting forth the
position of his faction of the commit
tee. From Monday until the end of
the special session, senators will make
set speeches discussing the currency
reform problem
Although the administration finally
has succeeded in getting the currency
bill before the senate, other obstacles
which threaten to delay the measure
are apparent. On December l the SEN
ate will set aside the currency bill
and by agreement take up the bill to
give San Francisco the right to use a
water supply from the Hetch Hetchy
valley. The measure will be disposed
of by December 6, but on December
the senate has agreed to take up bill
giving the president authority to build
a government railroad in Alaska. This
may be set aside in favor Of the cur
rency bill.

EVADE ALL PUBLICITY
FOR THEIR HONEYMOON
MIR. and Mrs. Sayre Keep Their Des-
tination Secret From Public
Dodge Interviews.

Washington, Nov. 28.-The going
away of the bride and groom, the
method, mode of conveyance, and des-
tination ever since the wedding plans
took definite shape have been Sc
cret
The White House grounds have sew
eral entrances. There are four car
riages entrances and number of
gateways for foot passengers. The
watchful representatives of the press
had reporter at every point of pos
sible exit. The only way in which
Mr. and Mrs. Sayre could have eluded
the press altogether was by uncere-
moniously climbing the back fence.
1t was even suspected by some OF
the subtle minded watchers that Mr..
and Mrs. Sayre might brave publicity
and make their departure from the
main entrance of the White House.
But those who had suspected Mr..
and Mrs. Sayre of anything so I'M
romantic as a dash away from the
public entrance were doomed to disap-
pointed. The bridal couple left
from the rear of the White House in
Secretary Tumulty's car. They es-
capped from the southwestern en-
trance.
There have been more than dozen
positive statements as to their deslna-
ton. Up to the time of their depart
ure. not a word has been whispered
from the White House. They would
spend their honeymoon on the presl-
dents yacht Mayfower; they would
spend it on the Dolphin; they were
going to Mr.. Sayre's ranch In Mon
tana; they were going to spend the
honeymoon quietly in the little Penn
sylvania town where they met; the
Delaware water gap, Palm Beach,
Bermuda, and the West Indies were
all on the list, unof1icially announced
and impossible of confirmation.

PROSECUTIONS MAY FOLLOW
Points to Cost of Hen Product and At
tempt of Some Dealers to Stop
Quiz by Cutting
Prices.

Washington, Nov. 25-The admin
istration's first attack on the food
trust was taken when Attorney Gen
eral McReynolds issued orders for a
countrywide investigation of the cold
storage combine which is believed to
be responsible for the present high
price of eggs.
In addition, several bills are before
congress, and early action regulating
the cold-storage combine is expected.
The investigation ordered by Attor-
ney General McReynolds will extend
into every judicial district where
there are federal officials They are
to get complete figures and all the
other evidence obtainable bearing on
the charge that cold-storage men are
Withholding eggs and other food prod
ucts from the market in an effort to
raise and sustain prices.
The Investigators will report on the
number of eggs in storage, the price
at which they went in storage, the
length of time stored, and the price
at which they were sold when taken
Oul. Iuel VIII ascertain dlSO SdppIOAA-
mately the number of eggs produced
in their respective districts.
Il want to know the inside of this
thing" said the 2tt2rpey general. He
is already in possession OF iGforma-
ton showing some attempts on the
part of the cold-storage houses to cor
ner the egg and vegetable supply in
their communities. AS showing that
the cold-storage people admit they
have plenty to fear, it was stated at
the department of justice that some
dealers had dropped egg prices in the
hope that the investigation might be
averted.
If the investigation of the depart
ment sustains the evidence already
brought to the attention of the attor-
ney general he will bring prosecutions
both under the pure-food law and the
antitrust act Dealers selling eggs
out of storage for fresh eggs can be
reached under the pure-food act for al
legged miSbranding.
