THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, JUNE 11, 1906. CUT BY THE HOUSE IEWEST Mining, Irrigation and Lumber Interests Will Now Feel Effect of Economy. HOPE LIES IN THE SENATE Total of $340,000 lias Been Trimmed from Appropriation for the Geological Survey in the Sundry Civil Bill. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, June 10. (Special.) House Repre sentatives struck a severe blow to the entire West In cutting down the all-important appropriation for the Geological Survey carried by the sundry civil bill, and unlefw the Senate Increases these items, mining, irrigation and lumber In terests will feel the efTect of the House legislation. In all $346,000 has been cut oft of the Geological Survey appropriation. The Government was about to begin the testing of mineral fuels of the West, Including coals and lignites of the Paciiio Coast, Little work of this character can be done, for the appropriation was only 100,000, when twice that amount has been annually appropriated for similar work in the East. Instead of J100.000 to carry on the Inves tigation of mineral resources, including black sand experiments at Portland, the House grants but 00,000. This will shut oft the black sand work entirely, when the present special fund Is expended. The appropriation for forest reserve surveys is cut from $130,000 to $100,000 and a cut of $00,006 is made In the appropria tion for topographic surveys, which form the basis of all the Geological Survey work. Congress has been appropriating $2u0.000 annually to gauge streams prelim inary1 to undertaking actual irrigation work. This k cut to $100,000 and means material interference with Irrigation sur veys in localities where new projects are contemplated. Another cut that will be felt is in the . appropriation for the annual report on mineral resources of the United States. This will cut down the subject-matter of the valuable Government document and will restrict the issue, to the Incon venience of the mining interests of the country. CONFERENCE ON STATEHOOD Bill Will Be Called Vp by.Beveridge in the Sennte. WASHINGTON, June 10. The confer ence report on the statehood bill will be taken up in the United States Senate Tuesday, and much interest is felt in the subject. The report will probably be called up by Senator Beverldge, In charge of the report, but Senator Foraker has given notice that if the friends of the report do not move in that direction he will do so. No opposition to consideration is an ticipated, but there is a prospect of ani mated d'iscussion of the report on its merits and undoubtedly considerable time will be required for the determination of the question. Senator Foraker will lead a right to prevent agreeing to the com mittee's report. The business of the week will begin to morrow with the presentation of the ma jority reports of the committee on privi leges and elections in the case of Sena tor Smoot. but the further consideration of that will be deferred for a time and the Senate will continue the considera tion of the appropriation bills. Only one of these, the diplomatic appropriation bill, is now ready for consideration. It will be taken up Monday, and as soon as other supply bills are ready they will be placed before the Senate. The Panama sea-level canal bill also will be discussed further during the week, as opportunity offers, and it will be pressed to a vote as speedily as possible. It is not expected that the conference re port on the railroad rate bill will again reach the Senate in time for further dis cussion this week. There are many subjects of important legislation crowding for consideration In the House this week. The sundry civil appropriation bill still has the right of way and if uninterrupted will be passed by Thursday. The District of Columbia has the right to Monday under the rules, but efforts are being made to sidetrack this order in favor of the civil bill. As efforts being made to have the Sen ate change Its motion respecting the rail road bill have failed and this measure will have to be consiaered in the House before a second conference can be had it is planned to make this the first busi ness Monday. Just how far the discus sion will go, and whether the special rule limiting debates will be brought in, are details which have not yet been deter mined. The fact that the House is re quired to consider this, the first report of the conferees, which. In effect, has been rejected by the Senate, will reverse the order of consideration on the second re port of the conferees, giving it to the House first and to the Senate last. The omnibus public building bill, carry ing authorizations for public buildings ag gregating more than $20,000,000, is to be brought in and passed under a special rule as soon as the sundry civil bill has been sent to the Senate. The pure food bill was brought forward as the next subject of consideration, to be laid aside for the taking up of confer ence reports. One of the early actions of the week will be the consideration of the agricultural bin with its worrisome meat-inspection attachment. The plan Is to get this bill Into conference at the ear liest possible moment. Members of the agricultural committee have become im pressed with the necessity of haste In any action to be taken. Continued and Increasing injury to the livestock inter ests have been set forth to the commit tee, with evident effect. The committee will take up the Bever ldge amendment Monday, and, if possi ble, bring In a report to the House on that or . the next day. The motion will be made to disagree to all Senate amend ments. Including the beef-inspection pro vision, and ask the Senate for a confer ence. As soon as the Senate acts on the In dian appropriation bill conference report, which is expected early in the week, the report will be called up for action in the House. The statehood conference report likewise, which is to be taken up by the Senate, will furnish business for the House as soon as sent over. THE DAY'S DEATH RECORD Bishop William Bompas. SEATTLE.

SIX SERVICES ARE HELD Devotees Stand in Line From One o'clock In the Morning Until Seven to Be Present at First Exercises. BOSTON. June 10. One of the most re markable religious demonstrations ever witnessed in New England occurred to day, when the new $1,000,000 Christian Science Temple, in the Back Bay district; was dedicated. From every state in the Union and from all parts of. the world came people to be at the dedicatory serv ices. It was estimated that more tnan 40,000 Christian Scientists were in the city today. Six services were held to accommodate the vast mrongs. but even then thousands were unable to gain admission to the tem ple. The seating capacity of the new edi fice exceeds 5000, and at each service today hundreds stood In the aisles and in the rear of the church. The first service was held at 7 o'clock this morning. As early as 1 o'clock hun dreds of Christian Scientists were stand ing in line waiting patiently for the doors to open. At 5 o'clock there were at least 3000 in the street opposite the church, and an hour later the number had swollen to 5000. At 7 o'clock there were 10,000 persons waiting. As quickly as one service was completed and the congregation had de parted the temple was filled again, and there were thousands of people on the outside who were unable to get in. a ue services today were identical, and each service was about two hours in length. The occasion combined this after noon the annual communion and the ded icatory exercises. It consisted of the usual Christian Science opening exercises, the reading of the tenets of the church, a dedicatory address prepared by Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy and read by W. D. McCracken, first reader of the church, and a lesson sermon especially prepared for the occasion. At the close of the lesson sermon, in ad dition to the usual custom of the church in response to an invitation of the first reader, the entire congregation knelt In silent communion, followed by the audible repetition of the Lord's Prayer. The con gregational singing was a feature of the services. At the close of each service, Edward A. Kimball, of Chicago, presented a reply of thanks to Mrs. Eddy for her dedicatory address and for her general work in be half of the church. In her address, refer ring especially to the dedication of the new temple, Mrs. Eddy wrote: "Beloved, I am not with you in propria persona at this memorable dedication and communication season, but I am with you in spirit and truth, lovingly thanking your generosity and fidelity and saying virtual ly what the prophets said: 'Continue to choose whom ye serve.' "You have dexterously and wisely pro vided for the Mother Church of Christ. Scientist, a magnificent temple, wherein to enter and pray. Greatly impressed and encouraged thereby, deeply do I thank you for this proof of progress, unity and love. "The edifice of the Mother Church of Christ, Scientist, began with the cross; its extension is the crowning ultimate rise to a mental monument, a superstructure high above the works of men's hands, even the outcome of their hearts, giving to the material a special significance; the special beauty and achievements of goodness methinks this church is the one edifice on earth which most prefigures self-abnegation, hope, faith and love, catching a glimpse of glory." The temple, which is entirely free from debt, is one of the most Imposing struc tures in Boston, and is said to be the largest church in .,ew England. Chris tian Scientists all over the world have aided in its construction, which has occu pied more than two years. PAIS THE BILLS? POLICY-HOLDERS SEXD LETTER TO PRESIDENT PEABODY.

Seymour Eaton, secretary of the International Policy-holders Commission, has been sent to President C. A. Pea body, of the Mutual Life Insurance Com pany, requesting Information concerning the Mutual advertising which is appear ing in newspapers throughout the coun try. The letter said that the committee that Mr. Eaton represents has been flooded with, inquiries on this subject, the majority of the correspondents asking if the committee knows whether the policy holders' money is being used to meet this advertising expense. "One correspondent writes," the letter says, "that he has it on good authority that a well-known advertising agency has been authorized by your companjr to spend $100,000 of the policy-holders' money at this time to create, as he puts It, a favorable public sentiment for the management.' " Mr. Eaton's letter says the committee will be glad to hear that the advertise ment in question, "'which, in view of the approaching election, . has all the ear marks of a campaign document," is be ing paid for personally by Mr. Peabody and the other officers and directors who are candidates for re-election, i ABOUT PLUMBERS. Between Them and Haughty Bankers There Is an Abyss. Baltimore Herald. Theodore Becker, a plumber of Gen eseo. III., has addressed a letter to the leading Geneseo newspaper, threaten ing it with dire penalties and forfeit ures unless ..it denies at once "a mail cious rumor" that he is to abandon the art of plumbery for the banking business. Mr. Becker holds that the rumor has disgraced and degraded him, and says he has his opinion of the miscreant who set it in circulation. "I regret," he concludes pathetically, that we should have persons in our midst who attend to other people's af fairs when their own affairs suffer for lack of attention." Mr. Becker has Justice and right on his Bide, and we hope that he will un earth the vile villain who slandered him and perform upon the person of the brute, a sound walloping. He is a plumber, and he is proud of it. Plumb ery is an honorable art and a learned profession.

And then, before he may enter into practice this, at least. Is the case in Maryland he must pass a rigid examination and- 'furnish testi monials to his good habits and moral character. The commonwealth, realizing the ne cessity for exalted standards in the profession, has adopted legislation de signed to keep incompetent, ribald or careless men out of it- A drunken or Ignorant plumber would be a public menace. His unsteady hand might break a pipe and flood a house. Bungling the difficult task of setting up a kitchen range, he might cause a holocaust. It Is absolutely essential that he be a man of calm. Judicial mind, of great mechanical skill and of sound moral, political and religious principles. A banker, on the other hand, need be none of these things. A boy doesn't have to serve a weary apprenticeship if he wants to become one. He doesn't have to -labor three years, he doesn't have to belong to a union and he doesn't have to pass an examination. Any man with assurance enough may open a bank. All that is needed is an iron grating, a set of books and some one else's money. 'Uncle Sam sets no definite standard for the men who run his National banks. Some of them drink too much. Others, Instead of at tending to business, spend half their time playing poker or going to the ball game. Still others dally in Eu rope or go off on steam yachts, smok ing 25-cent cigars. Even a faro bank er is infinitely less responsible and worthy than a first-class plumber. Therefore, we second Mr. Becker's protest and hope he finds and muti lates the rascal who injured his good name.

ANSWER TO CIRCULAR Pennsylvania Railroad President Says None of the Companies In Which He 19 Interested Ships -Over His Railroad. PHILADELPHIA, June 10. The special Investigating committee appointed by the board of directors of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, and acting for all the lines of the Pennsylvania system, to night made public the answers of Presi dent Cassatt to the questions propounded by the committee In one of its circulars sent to all officers and thousands of em ployes of the various lines. Mr. Cassatt, in reply to the query as to whether he has had any interest in any coal com pany or other enterprise located on the company's lines since January 1,1900, says: "1 do not at present own any stock in any coal company whose mines are lo cated on or whose coal is shipped over the lines of the Pennsylvania Railroad system. "Until the 31st of December last I owned 160 of the 4000 shares of the Mill wood Coal & Coke Company (par 150), a stock which I subscribed for when the company was formed, about 1872, and paid for at the subscription price, which, to the best of my recollection, was par. There was no market for this stock, as it only paid dividends at irregular intervals, but last Fall an offer was made for all the stock by the owners of the adjoining land and my stock waS sold with the rest. "I own 833 of the 6000 shares of the common stock of the Union Switch and Signal Company (par J50), which I pur chased in 1884 at the then market price, which, as nearly as I can recollect It, was about J50 per share. I own 2296 of the 166.000 shares of the preferred stock of the Pennsylvania Steel Company (par ' J100). This stock I pur chased at various times, my first pur chase having been made In October, 1891, some months after the acquisition by the Pennsylvania Company of a majority of the shares of the capital stock of the Pennsylvania Steel Company. My last purchase was made on the 9th of May of this year. The average price paid by nie was $97. "I own 2000 of the 40,000 shares of the Cambria Steel Company (par 50), which I purchased at a cost of $3 per share on the 2nd day of May, 1908. These shares replaced 1600 shares of other stock of the said company, all of which were bought by me after the Pennsylvania Company had acquired a majority of the shares of the Cambria Steel Company, but which I had subsequently sold." Mr. Cassatt said he had not directly performed any service in connection with the recelDt. transportation or aenvery oi any freight shipped by or consigned to any of the companies aDove namea. ie said he had not performed any duties in connection with the distribution or allot ment of cars or the furnishing of siding. Kidlne-s equipment, motive power or other accommodations for any of the companies named. President Cassatt says he has never re ceived any commission, compensation, gift or gratuity of any kind from any shipper on the Pennsylvania's lines, or any of the five companies he mentions in his first answer. In reDly to the question as to whether he is pecuniarily interested in arty corpo ration, association or individual, doing work for or furnishing materials or sup plies to the Pennsylvania system, heSys that the five companies mentioned in ms first answer make sales to the Pennsyl vania, and, with the exception of these companies, he is not interested or con cerned in corporations or Individuals re ferred to in the query. He sav. ae has not performed and is not now performing any service in con nection with work done for, or the pur chase of receipts of materials or supplies by the Pennsylvania Railroad system, ex cepting that he has.

President Cassatt makes the following statement to the special committee: "You will observe that the only coal stock owned by me since becoming pres ident of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany is 160 shares of the Millwood Coal & Coke Company, which stock has been sold, but, in view of the reputed rumors of my being a holder of stocks of the Keystone Coal & Coke Company, the Ber-wlnd-Whlte Coal Mining Company and the Henrietta Coal Company, and of my being- interested in the firm of Cassatt & Co.. I think It proper to state that I never owned or had any interest In the stocks of the Keystone Coal & Coke Company or of the Henrietta Coal Company, or I ever had any Interest in the firm of Cassatt & Co. "I never owned any stock of the Ber-wind-Whlte Coal Mining Company while an officer of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, either during my former con nection with the company, which termi nated by my resignation of the vice-presidency in the Pall of 1882, or since I be came president in 1899, but when, in 1886, Charles J. Berwlnd, then head of the partnership of Berwlnd-White & Co., formed the present Berwlnd-White Coal Mining Company to take over the business of that firm, I purchased 400 shares of the stock of the company, and paid for it at the then market price, which was 25 per cent of its par value. I sold this stock in 1801. "You will observe that it was purchased four years after I ceased to be an officer of the company, and was sold eight years before I was elected to the presidency. I never had any interest in the partnership of Berwlnd-White & Co." Investigation x of Railroad Methods. WASHINGTON, June 10.

Wireless Reports from Cape Sable Brings Tugs to Assistance. YARMOUTH, N. S., June 10. The steamer Btolla, of the Elder-Dempster line, which left St. John yesterday for Barrow, via Sydney, C. B., struck on a dangerous ledge near Cape Sable during a thick fog at an early hour today and Is thought to be badly damaged. Wire less reports from Cape Sable indicate that no lives were lost. Tugs have been sent from St. John and Yarmouth to assist the vessel. So far as can be learned here the Etolia carried no passengers. The condition of the Etolia became so bad tonight that the crew launched the boats and succeeded In landing on a small island near the lighthouse. Captain Jones, however, remained on board. The vessel probably will be a total loos. TUCKER'S TIME IS SHORT Murderer of Mabel Page Will Be Hanged Tonight. BOSTON, June 10. Charles L.

Civil War Veteran Had Good Repu tation Until He Killed a Man Over a Drink. SAN FRANCISCO, CaL. June 10.-(Spec-IaL) Sentenced to San Quentin from the front parlor of a private residence, aged Fred Jaiser was almost overcome by the unexpectedness of his punishment yester day morning. He was convicted of man slaughter last April for killing Charles Buelna, and Judge Dunn sentenced him before the old man had time to realize what was happening to him. When the prisoner understood he would have to go to San Quentin for seven years, a term that practically means the rest of his life, the spectacle he presented was pitiful. While the Deputy Sheriff was snapping the irons on his hands to take him back to the Jail the old fellow was still begging for a new trial and seemed utterly cast down, because the court did not appear to hear him. In the absence of his regular lawyer, a young attorney named Lucy was ap pointed to preserve Jalser's rights. At the proper time he made an objection to the proceedings and submitted a motion for a new trial, which was denied. Jaiser did not seem to comprehend that the attorney was representing" him, and attempted to make a motion of his own. As soon as he opened his lips he was struck violently in the breast by a Dep uty Sheriff and told to keep his mouth closed. "But, Your Honor," he cried, "this man is not my lawyer. I want to move for a new trial." By this time the case was over and he was hustled Into the handcuffs and out the door. Jaiser Is a veteran of the Civil War, who, previous to his crime, had borne a good reputation. He became in volved in a dispute over the price of a drink and shot Buelna. He denied the Bhooting at first, but later made a con fession to the police. Saved for tbe Wake, ' j Everybody's. The savory odor of a boiling ham reached the nostrils of an Irishman as he lay on his death-bed, and. in spite of his condition, the thought of the unaccus tomed delicacy made his mouth water.
