1t is expected. according to story
on Capitol Hill to-day, that the Senate
Committee on. Executive Nominations,
to which have been referred the nomi.
nations made by Governor Tener dur
ing the recess, will have a conference
with Governor Brumbaugh before the
Senate meets on Monday evening as to
his wishes regarding the confirmation of
the appointments.
The talk is, and it may be all talk,
that at least two Of the members of
the Public Service Commission will not
be confirmed, and that the proposition
to reduce the membership of the Com
mission to five will receive serious con-
sideration.
The Homestead Association of the
State, made up principally of borough
officials, which met here yesterday, was
very decided in favoring bill for the
abolition of the Comm on in its en-
tirety, but this is understood to have
been received with little favor in ad-
ministration circles. The two names
most mentioned as not meeting the ap-
proval of the Senate Committee on
Executive Nominations are those of
Commissioner Wallace, of Erie, and
Commissioner Walter H. Gather, of AL
legheny, the latter formerly private
secretary to Governor Tener, appointed
during his last month as Governor.
1t is said that Commissioner Wal

CLING 3 days TO
DRIFTING Wreck


Thence they were brought to New York
by the Algonquin.
Steamer Reported Lost Reaches Port
The Italian steamship Angela Parodi.
which was lost from view of the reve-
nue. cutter ltasca yesterday in a fog
and was believed to have gone down
with her crew of 81, reached this port
today in tow of the Greek steamer
Crios.
The Parodi had been adrift since
January l9, when her supply Of coal
was exhausted. For four DAYS the reve-
nue. cutter ltasca stood by and en-
deavorei to get a line to the drifting
ship. The Parodi s food supply ran out
and this increased the suffering of the
crew. High seas prevented the Itasca
from aiding either the ship or those
aboard
During Monday night the Parodi
drifted away from the Itasca in thick
weather. The cutter searched all dav
Tuesday and yesterday for the ship and
not finding it sent a wireless message
last night to Norfolk expressing the be
lief that the Parodi had sunk about
$40 miles off Cape Henry with all on
board. This belief was strengthened,
the wireless message said, by the fact
that the cutter encountered mass of
wreckage in her search.
Second Rescue for Crios
After the Parodi became separated
from the Itasca, her officers said to dav.
the Greek steamer Crios sighted her.
This was at clock in the morning
of January 26, few hours after she
had driftei away from the Itasca. The
Crios succeeded in getting a line to the
helpless vessel and took her in tow.
The rescue of the Parodi is the sec
ond one achieved by the Crios in sue
cessive voyages. On her previous voy-
age from New York to Piraeus on No
vember 2S the Crios fell in with the
British steamer Gripwell, which had
lost her propeller, and towed the Grip
well to Gibraltar, distance of 500
miles.

TRINITY SCORES A
VICTORY OVER BANK
COLLEGIANS WOLLOP DALLAS
TEAM AFTER GAME WAS
ALL But GONE.
Pretty Exhibition of Ball Playing Is
Witnessed by Number of
Old Time
Fans.

| With a cold wind blowing from the
northeast and the fans shivering yes
terday afternoon Trinity university
opened up the baseball season by de-
feating the Dallas City National
bank team by score of II and s.
| The cold wind made the playing rath-
| er difficult and the visitors in the
! first part of the game seemed to
| get away with the plays to a better
advantage. In fact Trinity fans were
becoming uneasy when the seventh
inning rolled around and the score
stood 5 and 0 in favor of the Wis
itors. The Dallas bunch was play
ing fast ball with few errors. Fergu-
son, an old Trinity man, was work
ing well i'll the box for the visitors
and the Varsity squad seemed unable
to hit him, but at this point a new
pitcher was put in. Trinity open
ed up her old-time hitting record,
the Dallas men began to make er-
rors, and before. the visitors could
collect themselves Trinity had cross
ed the plate with eight runs.
From the seventh on the bank
did not make a score, while Trinity
marked up three more, hence the
final marking was II to 5 in favor
of the home team
The men deserving mention for
the Bankers are Rugel, Adams, Bur-
ley, Payne and Ferguson With the
exception of the seventh, the Wis
itors played good ball Ferguson,
pitching for the Dallas team, is the
oldtime athlete who has worn a
Trinity uniform for the last three
years.
All of the home team showed good
form. They were, of course, lit
tie loose, since this is the first
game. However, the old-time form
could be seen. Three pitchers we're
used by Coach Sealey,
Dykes and Watson They all deliv-
cred the goods, Johnson and Sealey
worked well in the receiving line.'
Orr, at first, covered his ground
we'll Kuykendall was his former
self ut the second sack. Huffman
will develop into a crack third-sack-
er. Duncan, Alexander, Ward and
Goodloe all were tried in the outer
garden Eight good hits were made
by Trinity to five by the other team.
From the hitting, base running and
fielding of the home team one could
predict fine season for Trinity.

export wheat situation, and by con-
trolling that regulate the domestic
market:
Il wouldn't call that popular
myth. l should say it is principal
~ all moonshine-just plain bunk.
The present situation is rentark-
able but lawful" he continued.
The export surplus fixes the do
nestle price. We can't expect to
buy here for less than is offered
abroad. However, our export IA
cilitles are limited. Otherwise.
Europe would be in the market for
all the wheat we have. Germany
would pay 81 bushel for any guam
tity.
One advantage of high prices is
that people waste less wheat, flour
and bread when it is expensive.
Il do not understand how people
IKE ours. which spends millions a
year on cheap chewing gum, cigars
and other trash. can be affected by
an increase of / cent in The price of
bread"
Turning back to the wheat situa-
ton, Mr.. Candy asserted:
Liverpool is the wheat barom-
eter this year. l believe Europe IS
accommodating a surplus.
Il think we may have as much
as 100, 1000 900 bushels left to ex-
port and | am con fident that spec
ulation this year is vastly less than
1t usually is. ! don't know of any
Spectator or any bold group of
SPECTATORS who have plunged aud
made fortunes | do know of some
big people who have oversoId them
selves and been badly frightened.
Mostly the operators are sitting on
the fence.
Speculation neither raises nor
lowers prices: small amounts cause
wider fluctuations than large
amounts"

{. II. Candy, president of the
Chicago Board of Trade, was Il vol
uhtary witness before the inquiry in
stitnted by the attorney general Of
New York into the rise in the price
of bread and wheat. He insisted
that there was no such thing as a
monopoly of wheat, and that the
high prices were caused merely by
the European demand
This is what Mr. Cabby had to say
when he was asked if q large cor
poration, like the Armour grain in
terests, cannot by buying grain from
the farmers and holding It indeh-
nitely in their elevators control the
