Senator LaFolIette has shown that tbe
corporations of this country are capital
ired at fSl.679,000,000, and that 70 per
cent, of this capitalisation is water. More
and more water is constantly being inject
ed into the capitalization of the railroads, which makes it necessary for the roads to
be continually boosting freight rates and
increasing the cost of living to every man,
, woman and child in the nation.
Under the Roosevelt and Taft adminis
trations, Congress refused to pass a bill
providing for a physical valuation of rail
road properties, which appears to be - the
only solution of the evil which permits
the gouging of the common people in order
that a few railroad magnates may be still
further enriched. Before this session
however, the Democratic House
will enact such legislation, the bill having
already been favorably reported from the
committee on interstate and foreign com
BLOCKED BY SENATE STAND
PATTERS
Tbe Democratic House of Representatives started out, in this session of Con
gress, to cut down the expenses of gov-
nt. Many slashes were made into
government extravagance, but in each case
the cut was not made without the most
careful study. The effort to save money was thoroughly honest.
The economy plan of the Democrats,
however, is being fought at every turn by the Senate stand-patters, wbo
promptly placed back into the appropria
tion biils either all or a large part of the
of the amounts left out of them as they left
tbe House. The Democrats cut eight
milbons from the army bill, and three
millions from tbe* District of Columbia
bill, and cut ont the public buildings bill
altogether. This latter bill, in past ses-j sions, has been the source of an expense
of millions of dollan annual!v. and thc
Democrats proposed to put a stop to the practice. Ion* prevalent, of building mag
nificent postoffices in villages. Tbe Sen
ate Old Guard, which regards tbe right
to dip into tbe treasury at will as a God-
given perogative, promptly placed the
terns back ia tbe bills, and the bill
leas the Democrats take drastic action, will carry the old amount*.
Tbe Democratic leaders have threatened
to take drastic action, and unless the Sen

DEMOCRATS ARC PROGRESSIVE
The Democratic House goes right oi being progressive. The record that is

Congress will constitute an even stronger
claim to progressive support, in the com

The House committee on Interstate and
ti commerce has inserted into the Panama canal bill a provision which the
New York Herald declares is "the most drastic provision ever proposed by a com
ittee of Congress." This provision stipulates that no railroad in the United States
may own or control any water carrier with which it competes
The pt -pose of this provision is to pre
vent mock competition between railroad
and steamship lines, and to give the peo-j pie tbe full benefit of the Panama canal,
wben it is completed, by insuring genuine i
and effective competition. This can be
brought abont only by steamship lines that are independent of the railroads.

Head hunting, the greatest passion
of the Dyak. baa Its roots In his courtship and In his idea of immortality
and filial affection. *A Dyak legend
tells that “tho daughter of their groat ancestor, who resides In heaven near
the evening star, refused to msrry
until her betrothed brought her s gift
worthy her acceptance.“The man went tnto the Jungle and
killed a deer, which he presented to
her, but tbe fair lady turned awajr In disdain He went away and returned
with a mlas (orangoutang), the grest
monkey who haunts the forest, but this present waa not more to her
taste.“Then In a fit of despair the lover
went abroad and killed the first man he met and throwing the victims bead at her feet, exclaimed at the
cruelty she had made him guilty of, but. to his surprise she smiled, and
said that now he had discovered ths only gift worthy of herself."
And to thia day s Dyak girl will often refuse to marry a man wbo has not taken at least one head. Still
more binding upon the Dyak is the obligation to furnish a fresh bead to attend the spirit of any dead member
of hia family.
CHELSEA’S MYSTERY HOUSE
One of the most eccentric cbarac- ters in London bas Just died In the
person of Dr. John Samuel Phene, in hiB ninetieth year. He was reputed to be very wealthy and the proprietor of what haa been known as the "Mys

There are cuddling cupids, ancient goddesses, mermaids, imps and all tbe
rest The story goes that Dr. Phene was reconstructing the bouse for his
wife, but when sbe died be gave up
the task. It is nearly thirty years
now since the bouse waa occupied and twelve years since it waa ar-
ranged tn its present style. The Interior ts as curious as ita exterior.
Many of the roms are pillared and the ceilings gilded, frescoed and painted ln gorgeous style, but sll sre in s state of dilapidation.

left-handed pitchers have given bugs
the impression that practically all southpaws are of the wild and woolly

the five best left-handers shows that
the control of the southpaws is almost as good as that of the starboard Dingers.
National League right-handers were Bomewhat steadier than left-handers,

A Ixndon specialist proposes to cure baldness by grafting hair on the dome This will create a demand for

They were Frederick Fleet, a lookout
on the liner, and Major Arthur God frey Peucheo, Canadian manufactur
er and yachtsman, who was among
the rescued pa&sengers-Fleet acknowledged that if fa<* had
been aided in his observations by a
good glass he probably couid have
seen the iceberg into which the ship
crashed in time to have warned the officer on the bridge to avoid it.
Major Arthur G. Peuchen. a pas senger. also testified to the much greater sweep of vision afforded by binoculars, and, as a yachtsman, said he believed the presence of the iceberg might have been detected in time to escape the collision had the
lookout nit-n been so equipped.It was made to appear that the
blame for being without glasses did not rest with the lookout men Fleet said they had asked for them Jt Southampton and were told there were none for them. One ?lass in a
pinch would have served in the crow's nest.
Fleet testified he sent the customary three bells warning lo the bridge and also telephoned that ice wasahead just before the vessel crashed. He had not noticed the iceberg until near it. and it looked quite black and dim until they got very close to it.
As soon as he had *t*>iephoned. he
said, an acknowledgment was sent
bach from the bridge, but it was un
til the Titanic had collided with the iceberg that any change was made in
the vessel's direction Her heita was then swung hard to starboard and the
vessel veered to port.

plosive noise, instead of her boilers exploding, as has been stated.

Only the agonized passengers appear to have given serious consideration to the rescue of those less fortunate than themselves. Pitman test!
fied tbat he gave the order to return with the idea of picking up others, bat he mas eaally dissuaded by tfcosa who pieaded their own safefy and tha risk which would be incurred
Pitman said it was the passengers who made this plea, and thus far there is none to contradict him. But Major Peuchen. testifying as to wbat Came under his own observation, swears that the quartermaster ia charge of the lifeboat ia which he wai ordered the rowing stopped in ordef to listen to a command from the shim explained that it was a command te return and take on others, but d ls ^ garded that command and the pleading of the women and scuttled away, like the others, to a distance believed to be remote at least from immediate danger, abandoning shipmates and passengers to their fate.
And when morning came no bodies were to be seen. Life preservers, presumptively amply capable of floating tbe heaviest body until it should fall apart, had failed in the few short hours between the sinking of the ship and dawn, and all that remained ol the Titanic's safety appliances was a mass of broken cork.
These are among the important questions suggested by the testimony given before the investigating committee of the Senate:

Unwarranted Belief That Ship Was
Unainkahle, Reckless Navigation
and Wonderful Calm After Im
pact Brought Out at Hearing.
New York City.—Without wast ing a minute the sub-committee of the U. S. Seaate Committee on Cora- merce got down to business in its investigation into the Titanic disaster. President oxer by Senator William AJ- den Smith, a lawyer of note of Michigan. the inquiry began at the Waldorf- Astoria.
The remarkable and unwarranted faith of Captain E. J. Smith and his junior offlc^re in the unsmkable char acter of the Titanic, the recklessness of navigating the Titanic at full speed in view of tbe advices that there were icebergs in the vicinity and the won derful calm which prevailed am mg passengers and officers after tbe collision—these were the salieut facts brought out.
J. Bruce Ismay. William Marconi and Second Officer Ligfctoller of the Titanic were witnesses before the Senate committee investigating the disaster. From Ismay and Lightoller was drawn, reluctantly the admission that the Titanic was going at almost her maximum speed when she hit the iceberg, that Captain Smith bad been warned of the presence of bergs, but that the speed was not slackened in the leas?

Bryan’s State.
Washington. — Theodore Roosevelt won a sweeping victory in West Virginia. according to information received at the Roosevelt headquarters. In twenty-four counties in which primaries were held CoL Roosevelt, according to their, count, got 273 delegates, against 75 for Mr. Taft, to the State Convention.
According to a telegram from Gov. Glasscock, this insures CoL Roosevelt’s control of the convention, which will name six delegates at large to the ,National Convention.
The Roosevelt victories in Nebraska and Oregon brought out the following statement from Senator Dixon, his campaign manager:
“These victories clinch Roosevdt’s nomination by the Republican National Convention at Chicago. Six great Republican States have now expressed themselves by Presidential preference primary and every one of them has gone overwhelmingly against Mr. TafL These six Republican States cast an aggregate of 98 votes in the Electoral College. Without them no Republican candidate can hope to be elected.”
Omaha. Neb.—CoL Roosevelt carried Nebraska by a big majority in the Presidential (reference primary and it is believed that Champ Clark waa the Democratic choice. Returns received show:
Republicans—Roosevelt. 21,151; La Follette, Taft. 8.03S.
Democrats—Clark, 8.949; Hannon. C.451; Wilson. (.435.
Victor Rosewater. acting Chairman of the National Republican Committee, said he believed Roosevelt had polled two to two and a half times the votes of eithe? La Follette or Taft.
Harmon supporters abandoned hope that he miglu carry the State.
Shallcnberger appears to be the Democratic nominee for United States Senator Norris and Brown ran a close race for the Republican nomination.
Portland. Ore.—Theodore Roosevelt ts the preference of the Republican Party ia Oregon, and Woodrow Wilscn is the Democratic preference. Gen- Selling of Portland is the Republican nominee for the Senatorial candidacy.
Senator Robert M. La FoUette carried Multnomah County where one- fourth of the population of the Stale is located. President Taft carried but ten of the State’s thirty-four counties.
It was in the “cow coun’ies" that Rcosevdt made his strongest ranr with La Folldte second. Through the thickly populated Willamette YaUey district Roosevelt also led.

Lightoller, second officer of Titanic, admitted that he knew of the sbip receiving a message on Sunday warning Captain Smith of ice.
Two of the sailors of the Titaaic confirmed the report that men who tried to rash the lifeboats were shot.
Revised reckoning of the Titanic disaster statistics resulted in the offi- cisl announcement that only 705 persons were rescued, and that 1.C35 met death. The new figures were given out by W. W. Jeffries, passenger traffic manager of the White Star line.
The 705 survivors, as announced by Jeffries, consist of 202 first cabin passengers, 115 second cabin. 17b steerage, 4 officers and 20S of the crew. Or those saved almost a third were members of the ship's company.
Hopes that the Californian or the Ley land Line, which arrived at Boston would have survivors or bodies or victims on board were dashed. Her captain said he received a wireless from the Virginian telling of the Titanic's

A Church House in Ruins—Audience
in Theatre Driven Out by Smoke
— Most of the Fires Insig
nificant.
Waterbary, Conn.—Thirteen fires of seemingly incendiary origin during one day destroyed the City Hall, swept through Si. Patricks Church parish buildings and badly damaged several other structures. The entire community was aroused, fearing a repetition of the disastrous biaxe that ia February, 1902. destroyed <2.000,000 of property in the centre of town.
The excitement was so intense that shortly before 9 p. m. Mayor Reeves ordered out Company A. Connecticut National Guard. The militiamen patrolled the streets and forced the people to return to their homes. A number of false alarms added to the confusion and alarmed the people.
The fire in tbe City Hall was set in tbe basemeqt directly beneath the police station. A quantity of paint and varnish, left by workmen recently engaged in repairing the buiding, quickly caught fire, spreading the flames so rapidly tbat the firemen were unable to stop the biaxe until the structure was in ruins. The building was valued at $200,000 and was insured for but a small part of tbat sum.
The most serious loss was the Assessor's records. The police saved the rogues' gallery and records of criminals. The building had sheltered the Mayor, the Town and City Clerk, tax collectors, auditors, the Assessor and the Board of Charity, besides the Police DepanmenL
The old bell in the cupola, that for the tost forty years had warned the people of all fires, clanged into the ruins, sounding its own doom.
Tbe several fires started in basements. In some instances oil-soaked rags were found. One man waa arrested on suspicion, but was released when he proved an alibi.
A cry of “Fire!” raised by a woman in the Jacques Theatre during a moving picture exhibition caused a small panic. Several hundred persons rushed for the exits. The crush at the doors caused several women to fainL but they were saved from, injury by employes ot the place.
Two undertaking es‘ablishmenta, conductd by J. S. Malvlhill sad Mar tin Bergen's Sons, were burned down.
A fire was discovered in a closet ia the Chelsea Hotel. A biaxe atarted in Hausers market. In Meadow street. A pile or papers in the cellar or the building at No 87 Bank street, sdjacent to the Warner Building, was set oa fire. The firemen prevented the flames spreading to the Warner Bhilding, In which the Knights of Pythiaa have all their regalia stored. At 10 p. m. all the fires had beea extinguished.
