The American government as yet has
not taken up with Gen. CarranZa the
question Of financial dealings with the
subjects OF those European powers which

cation being conducted by Provisional
President Carbajal into the financial

ton.

Terms Suit Incorporate.


Senator Lippitt Of Rhode Island, during
the debate on the Newlands trade COM
mission bill, characterized the govern
ment suit instituted by Attorney General
McReynolds at the instance of the Presi-
dent as an extraordinary and most in
temperate attack upon the New Haven
road
Il do not know the sources that in
stigated this attack. but 1t bears all the
earmarks of an organized attempt to de-
tinued Senator Lippitt 'Of course Mr.
Mellen and Mr.. Morgan won't be injured
Only the innocent stockholders will suf-
fer. The directors should be allowed to
protect the interests of these innocent
stockholders. I agree with the senator
from Nevada, Mr.. Newlands, that scarce
ly railroad in the United States has
not been built up by consultations which
were technical violations of the Sherman
law. This is a very inopportune time for
the Department of Justice to be taking
such violent measures against the New
Haven road.
Lewis Finds Fi1ibuster.
Senator Lewis of Illinois, democratic
whip of the Senate, discovered today
what he insists is no more nor less than
filibuster on the part Of some repub-
lican senators to prevent any vote upon
the trade commission bill. He said that
he had been to a number Of the repub-
licans to learn whether 1t would not be
possible so to arrange the speeches or
the trade commission bill that one would
follow in answer to another. but he got
little satisfaction, he said. Those who
are engaged in an effort to prevent action
on the bill, he said, included Senators
Brandegee, Borah. Weeks and other re-
publicans.
Senator Smoot of Utah, republican, was
quoted yesterday as saying that there
would be no f1libuster against the trust
reason that they were as anxious to get
away from Washington as the democrats.
But the discovery Of Senator Lewis has
led to the belief that the democrats will
not get their bills through without a pro-
tracted debate.

the Passage of Further
Legislation.
NEW ENGLANDERS ATTACK
NEW HAVEN PROSECUTION
Insist Suits Ordered by Attorney
General Are III Advised and
'Intemperate."

Senator Weeks Of Massachusetts today
continued the arraignment of the New
lands trade commission bill, declaring
that existing antitrust laws had not prov
ed of benefit to the people and that fur
ther enactments along the same lines
would result in no good. He insisted that
the dismemberment of the great railway
systems of the country would be an alb
surdity, and added that APPARENTLY 1t was
to be left the Attorney General or Bone
other government official to say what rail-
way systems should be proceeded against.
If the law compelling dismemberment was
to be applied to one. he said, it should be
applied to all, and not left to the whim
of any government official.
Speaking of the case Of the New York
New Haven and Hartford system, Senator
Weeks pointed out that under the Roose-
welt administration suit had been
brought to compel dissolution of that
system, separating the New Haven road
and the Boston and Maine.
Dismissed by Wickersham.
Under the Taft administration" said
Senator Weeks. Attorney General Wick
ersham killed this suit, and think the
reason given by him was that an act Of
the Massachusetts legislature authorizing
the purchase Of the majority of the stock
of the Boston and Maine by the New
Haven road had validated that purchase.
"Now comes another Attorney General
and begins q suit for the dissolution of
the New Haven system. Apparently such
proceedings are not instituted because Of
what the law really is. but because of

Gunboat Marietta Ordered to Pedro

Where Disorders Are Reported.

Reports reaching the State Depart
ment from diplomatic agents in Haiti
indicate that the Haitian government
has gained the upper hand of the
revolutionists. Weakened and dis
courased over their failure to over
throw President Zamor, the revolution
lists appear to realize the futility Of
further attempts. Officialt; here believe
that the Haitian government may now
be able to restore order and thus avert
the necessity for American intervention.
While further developments in the
situation are awaited, it is stated there
will be no change in the Navy Depart
ments preparations for the concen-
tratIon of 1000 marines within striking
distance of the Haitian coast, and that
the war vessels now in those waters
VIII remain there. In the meantime dip
lomatic negotiations still are under
way with a view to composing the diff
ferences between the contendinr eIe
ments in Haiti and Santo Domingo
Decision as to what further steps
shall be taken by the American govern
ment in the cases of Haiti and Santo

SIsTIE MADONNA.

This great picture was painted by
the great artist. Raphael. 1t be.
longs to a province in Germany
named Saxony. The original pic
ture hangs in the famous art gallery
in Dresden, Saxony. A person can
not feel how beautiful it is until be
sees the original picture.
Many copies of the original have
been made, and are familiar to all
OF US. 1t is difficult to realize that
. human hand painted it, or a
human brain dreamed it, or:dreamed
OF anything 30 beautiful and holy.
The figure Of Mary seems 90 spirit
ual that the clouds under her feet
do not seem necessary to hold her
up. There is something very pecul-
lar about her eyes. They seem to
be looking of into the distance, see-
ing the suffering her Son has to 20
through.
The Madonna, hanging in the
Royal Art Gallery in Dresden, has
been thought until recently to be
the original picture. but this has
been disputed. Let us think this
work that seems 80 divine, is the
work OF Raphael's own brain, heart
and band. until we have been com.
PEELED to believe otherwise.

CHRlSfIlS TIDE.

The Christmas spirit is with us,
and we are all looking forward to
the coming of that day with great
joy. Christmas is celebrated in ev-
cry home throughout the land. We
pause every little while to look into
some house and see a Christmas tree
brilliantly illuminated with candles
and loaded down with beautiful gifts
The abundance of moss which hangs
in great clusters about the tree adds
quite a charm to the scene. The
flickers OF the fire in the CRATE warn
you that Jack Frost has used his
white brush. Around the tree are
seen a happy band of youngsters
with their faces wreathed in smiles
and happiness, and laughter is with
in every heart. Christmas carries
with it a charm that no other day
brings. It should be our purpose to
add to the happiness of others, and
Joy by making others happy; in this
way the spirit will never die.
The joy Of Santa Claus coming
