Champions of the pending legislation
assert that for &c years similar bills
have been blocked in Congress. They
say the present situation is similar
to that which existed in 1900, when
an organized lobby worked against a

The New Haven Plan

If it is approved by the attorney
general and the President, there will
be little left to be done before the
New Haven starts out to comply with
the conditions of reorganization laid
down in the plan. Action by the
Massachusetts Legislature to change
provisions of the charter of the Bos-
ton Railroad Holding Co., controlled
ID the New York, New Haven &
Hartford and in turn direct owner of
the Boston Il Maine stock, which the
New Haven is to give up, will mark
a final stage of the untangling. About
the only step to be taken after such
legislation is enacted will be the legal
announcement of the dissolution plan
in an agreed decree" prepared by
the department, approved by the New

court The plan, it was predicted IN
of1cial circles, tonight, will be along
the following lines:
The New Haven will put its Boston &
Maine stock in the hands of five trus-

half years, and their term of service may
be extended by the federal court which
sanctions the agreement.

MONS LEAVES
CABINET==FEW
DISTURBANCES
ON THURSDAY

Paris, March 19-French public
opinion continues to be deeply occu-
pied with the Calmette tragedy and
the resulting political agitation, al
though interest was less outwardly
manifested today. The general inter
est of the pleasure loving Parisians
was centered in the Mi Careme pa
rade of which confetti battles in the
boulevards We're a feature.
A few excited students in Paris and
Versailles attempted demonstrations
against NJ. Caillaux, but the police had
no difficulty in dispensing them.
Monis Resigns
The principal development of the
day was the resignation of Ernest Mo-
mis- from the ministry of marine and
it is understood his withdrawal from
the cabinet will DE permanent.
Various names We're mentioned in
the Hobbies of the chamber for the
post of minister of marine, but Pre-
mier Doumergue has decided to take
no action for the present.
While some kind of a demonstration
by the anti Republicans is certain to
be attempted at the funeral of NJ. CAL
mette tomorrow the police authorities
DO not anticipate serious trouble. New
ertheless M. Hennion, the project of
Paris, has made extensive preparations
to preserve order.
Saint Laaire prison, where Nine.
Caillaux occupies a cell, was again the
object of interest today by many hun
dreds of persons who seemed deeply
interested in those who passed within
it's doors. Nine. Caillaux, it is said,
is beginning to show the effects of her
Imprisonment. Her yong daughter by
an earlier marriage, Juliette Claritie,
is allowed to visit her daily. Her hus-
band and her attorney, M. Labor,
called on her this afternoon and found
her in very much depressed and
nervous state. She discussed her case
with the attorney. M. Labori inform
ed Nine. Caillaux, it is said, that she
had no alternative but to throw her
self upon the mercy of the court and
that in her defence he could not make
any reflections on M. Calmette.

Attitude of President

This is the attitude of President Will
son, as it was revealed today after
reports reached here, saying Senior
Portillo Rojas, minister tor foreign
affairs in the Huerta cabinet, had
gone to meet John Lind, Mr.. Wilson's
personal representative, to seek a re-
sumption of the peace parleys. Senior
Roias has been mentioned as the man
who would succeed Huerta if he re-
tired and the object of the visit to
Mr. Lind, it has been reported, was
to acquaint the Presidents envoy with
his personality. incidentally. the
President in talking with callers to-
day, while remarking that he had had
no official report of any new parieys,
spoke in complimentary terms of the
Mexican minister of foreign affairs as
a man of high character.

NEAR FUTURE
OF COLLEGE

Boston, March 19.-The immediate
doubt as a result of the financial loss
sustained in the fire tina destroyed
College hall Tuesday. The true situa-
ton, it is said, tonight was not real
lied until the executive committee met
yesterday and discovered that the es-
timated loss of 100000 was based on
assessors valuation of greatly depre-
Gated property and that the insurance
obtainable represented only about
one-fourth of the probable cost of
restoration.
Right Rev. William Lawrence, pres
ident of the executive committee, said
today that within a few days he would
call the trustees together to take some
definite action toward putting he col
lege into working order. but at the
present, he said, the officers were at
sea as TO what steps to take.
President Ellen F. Pendleton of the
college stated that all the students had
been notified to be back in three
weeks anu IL is HOpeu " ISSuiie TIE
sessions at that time.
THE academic activities of the col
lege are crippled she said. College
hall was the center of our life and
work and with that in ruins we are
paralyzed.'
Bishop Lawrence, who called the fire
a calamity. said:
Every laboratory is gone; there is
not an instrument for conducting an
experiment in chemistry or physics.
All the scientific collections which
have been 40 years gathering are lost.
Some of them We're priceless; all of
them were necessary for doing the
daily work of these departments. The
loss of the geological museum and of
the fine geographical collection Is a
great misfortune.
Chapel gymnasium, dormitories
and library are but discontinued units
and cannot do their work. These de-
partments must go on, but they cam
not go on without equipment. 1t is
imperative that steps be taken at once
to repair the loss; but the officers are
in doubt as to what steps to take.
THE calamity is a crisis In the his
tory of the college,"

Clause Unchanged as

In Senate==VetO
Is Probable
Committee Says ''Best Device
To Reduce immigration

Washington, March 19.-The Bur-
nett immigration bill with its litera-
cy test which if finally retained, is
generally expected to cause President
Wilson to veto the measure, was re-
ported today by the Senate immigra-
ton committee. Various amendments
TO the bill as it passed the House had
been made, but the literacy test
clause was unchanged. OF that pro-
vision the committees report said:
THE bill contains one provision in
tended directly to restrict immigration,
although said provision also incident
ally is to a certain extent selective in
its operation. The 'literacy test has
been adopted as the best device so
far suggested for reducing immigra-
ton where ii most needs to be reduc-
ed. So fully had it been discussed at
various times in the past that the
committee does not deem it necessary
to offer in this report extended COM
ment upon it,
LAS now reported the report add
ed, 1T is confidently believed the meas
ure is as nearly ideal in its selective,
administrative and restrictive features
as it is possible to make such a law
in advance of experience with the OPP
Grafton of such of its provisions as are
absolutely new"
Among the amendments proposed by
the Senate committee is one that
would exclude persons of constitu-
tienal psychipathic inferiority" which
the public health service urged as a
means of excluding from the country
those liable to insanity under stress
of American life.
The section of the House bill pro-
viding that medical officers selected by
this government should be carried on
inbound immigrant ships to which
italy and other foreign nations have
objected. was stricken out, substi-
tute section being offered which would
provide that immigrants may be de-
tanned long enough aboard the ships
on which they arrive to permit prop
er examination.

cause of alleged completely in the as
sassination of Madero. His refusal to
recognize Huerta. it may be stated ON
the highest authority, was not based
on any personal antagonism to Huerta,
but on the ground that the Constitu-
tionalists would never be reconciled TO
the man who had overthrown Made
ro, and that governments set up by ar
bitary force and not rejecting the pop
ular will should not be dealt with by
the United States. Likewise, in the
consideration of individuals who might
seek recognition by the United States
the principle ON which President Will
son has been working is that recogni-
ton extended to any one set up in the
Presidency without some popular ex-
preston or without the endorsement
of all factions could not lead to peace
In considering peace proposals from
the Huerta government, the United
States it is known, now will do all that
it can to forward a peaceful settle

with the President today as it was

that the value of all his proposals de-

Wilson Expresses Desire to Aid
Railroads of the United States

Washington, March 19-President
Wilson today manifested his deep in
terest in the financial condition of the
railroads of the country, expressing
a desire to help in every legitimate
way to bring them relief. The Pres
ident had been asked by callers If
he had heard any particular COM
plants from the railroads about their
financial condition and remarked that
he had heard what everybody was
discussing-the uncertainty of their
position. He indicated that the gov
eminent was giving consideration to
the general facts of the continued in
crease in operation expenses with the
decrease in net revenues.
The President revealed, too, that
while he had not been consulted by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1914-03-20

as whole, he had frankly discussed
everything brought up by individual
members of it who had called on him.
Mr.. Wilson considers as an important
factor In the railroad situation the
question Of whether the railroads will
get the proposed increase in freight
rates now being argued before the
Interstate Commerce Commission. He
did not express any opinion on the
merits of the increase. No legislative
action to afford relief to the railroads
had been suggested to the President,
he said.
Mr.. Wilson stated that the New Ha-
ven situation was proceeding salts
factorily and that he had not heard
of the New Haven case influencing
the financial condition of other rail-
roads as had been reported.
