HIS CASE EARNESTLY
PRESSED BY MINORITY
Vardaman Assails Appointee
and Says Harvester Trust
Is Most Ubiquitous

Washington, July 22.-The contest
over President Wilson's nomination to
the federal reserve board took on re-
newed activity yesterday when Thomas
B. Jones of Chicago replied to the adj
verse report of nomination. The MINOR
ity which supported him at once began
working ON its report. When 1t Is pre-
sented to the Senate later this week, a
vote may be forced.
White House officials heard unolhclal
reports that Senator 0'Gorman and Paul
M, Warburg, another of the presidents
contested nominees, had conference at
White Sulphur Springs, w. Va, to
bridge over the difficulties between Mr..
Warburg and the banking committee,
before which he has refused to appear.
No word has been received either from
Mr.. Warburg or Senator 0Gorman, Sem
ators of the banking committee denied
they had any part in the effort to induce
Mr. Warburg to appear but thought 1t
probable he would do. so, in which case
they believe there win be little oppo-
sition to his confirmation.
Senator yardaman, one OF the Demo
Gratis opposing Mr.. Jones, issued state
ment declaring he could not vote Tor
him. Il have the same objection 70
him, and men of his kind, being put in
control and management OF our banking
and currency system that the Christian
would interpose to a pagan teaching
theology in Christian college or an i'm
perialist administering laws resigned to
establish democracy. ! am sorry the
rresident Amounted him." said he.
After conferences yesterday between
President Wilson, Postmaster General
Burleson, Senator Lee and others, it was
said the administration was sure that
MIR. Jones will be confirmed. One mem
Der OF the cabinet, who has been active
in seeking support for Mr.. Jones told
the president he believed there was abb
solutely no doubt.

Nashville club in Kraft, the outfielder.
Kraft was with the Brooklyn National
club, coming from Newark. He was
then sent to the Nashville club. Kraft
sternly objected. At Nashville his sal

Boston, July 22.-The local butter,
cheese and egg markets show no special
change from last reports. There is
good. steady jobbing business in fine
butter, especially in small packages,

than usual and receipts are still pretty
large. The strength of the outside mar
kets is still the chief sustaining infu-
enee on local prices. Trading in cheese
is slow, but prices hold steady in the
lack Of any pressure to sell, holders be-
ing influenced by stronger advices from
the primary markets. Strictly fresh eggs
keep well sold up at firm prices.

HUNT FOR TRINITY

Senator Pomerene, Attacking "Pork Bar

Dried Up.

Washington, July Ex-senator Pom
creme Of Ohio would send Col. Roosevelt
To Texas to search for some OF the rivers
provided for in the pork barref OIL
now before the Senate.
When the river and harbor bill was up
in the Senate Monday and Senator BUT
ton was continuing his six-day argument
against it, Senator Kenyon interrupted
TO read this interview with M. j. Wirth
OF Fort Worth, Tex.
Il believe more than SlO0OD00 has

any senator in Washington can lind TINS

runs, ereeps nor crawls through Dallas;
in fact, it does not hesitate. Recently
an electric railway tried to lease the
bed of the river for an interurban line.
The Trinity river is the Joke OF Texas,
ard to-day it is as dry as bone but
we never fail to get an appropriation"
"Would it not be well, remarked Sen

Cabinet Backs McReynolds
in His Handling of
Situation
AND PRESIDENT \
DIRECTS ATTY. GEN.
To Begin Suit for Dissolu-
ton of New Haven
System

Washington, July 22-The Ions. con-
tinued effort to untangle the New Haven
railroad situation without litigation came
to an end yesterday when President
Wilson, in letter to Attorney General
McReynolds directed the instigation Of a
sherman law suit to dissolve the sys-
TEN.
He also ordered that the criminal
aspects OF the case be laid before fed
eral grand jury.
An interesting phase Of the CORE
spondence was contained in the McRey-
nolds letter to Wilson, in which there Is
decided rebuke for the interstate COM
merce commission for its action IN sub
pening Charles S. Mellen and others,
with the possible result OF embarrassing
the department by claim OF immunity
in return for their testimony.
It is understood that any claim OF inn
munity will be fought.
Practically all the time at the cabinet
meeting Yesterday was devoted to dis
cussion of the governments impending
antitrust suit to dissolve the New Ha-
ven railroad merger Attorney General
McReynolds presented complete state
ment Of the efforts Of the department
OF Justice to bring the railroad system
within the law without court fight.
1t is understood that he stated that
certain directors of the New Haven had
tried to obtain immunity by making
promises to carry out TO the most mi
mute degree the demand for dissolution.
The attorney general declared that he
had refused to bargain. He also said
that he believed it would be necessary
to push a dissolution suit under the
sherman law. inasmuch as the directors
had gone back on their promise to dis
solve the merger voluntarily.
Following the cabinet meeting, Mr..
McReynolds said that he would issue a
statement late yesterday setting forth
all of the details of the New Haven sit
uation and outlining the future plans of
the department OF justice in connection
with it.

ANCIENT MEDICAL HUMoR.

That there was no lack Of medical
humor in the classic days of Rome is
made sure by the ancient epigrams of
Martial of nearly 1000 years ago. The
London Lancet shows that the poet
bore a grudge against the specialists
of his day, for 1t seems they had this
variety of practitioners then and
pokes fun at the oculists and at the
surgeons who INDUCED in a clinical
teaching. OF the latter he has
patient complain in good Latin, and
this complaint has been made over
into current English.
I lay Ill, but soon Symmachus sought me
win class OF hundred young men,
Whose hundred cold paws have brought
me
The fever l lacked till then.
The journal of the American Medi-
cal association calling attention to the
medical ways of the ancient city notes
that diseases due to luxurious habits
had multiplied greatly in Rome. What
was called gout-that is, pains and
aches in joints and muscles and the
vague conditions that we now call
rheumatism-had also greatly in
creased. Pliny, who was an older
contemporary of Martial, says, "Gout
used to be an extremely rare disease,
not in the times of our fathers and
grandfathers only, but even within
my own memory" Although the
equity were usually rich and of
luxurious habits, some of them EVIL
IDENTIFY were not good pay. An evil
dence of this is thus given:

JAPANESE COURT.
Mikado's Home is Ruled by Females.

The every day life of the Japanese
Court is practically unknown to the
public in spite of the increasing enter
prise of japanese journalism, which
has made repeated efforts to break
down the barrier of exclusiveness and
mystery that has hitherto guarded all
approach to the inner apartments OF
the Chiyoda Palace.
The death of the Emperor Mutsuhi-
to. who has now Joined the ranks OF
tho sacred ancestors with the post
humous title sof Meiji Tenno, and the
retirement of the Lord Chamberlain,
Prince Tokudaiji, have removed the
two greatest obstacles in the w9- OF
a moro intimate knowledge of palace
happenings.
The new Emperor and his consort,
the Empress Sadeko. are much more
modern in their ideas and thoughts
than the late ruler, and it has not
taken long for several expressions of
their liberal tendencies to become evil
dent.
The Emperor and Empress have not
vet removed to the Chiyoda Palace,
the residence of the reignfng monarch,
from the Alaska Palace, a brand new
German structure. which is the home
of the Crown Prince of Japan. This is
owing 70 the necessity of the former
undergoing a thorough turnout and
repair.
When they do go into the residence
there it is probable that the old order
will be changed and, that the life in
the palace will no longer follow the old
mysterious routine which was associ-
ated with the days of Mutsuhito
