IKE TWO VIEWS OF STEEL MERGER Senators Will Have Two Re ports on President's Ac tion on Case. COMMITTEE VOTES MONDAY Much Wirepulling on Approval or Condemnation of Pre.-ident's Inaction Minority Will say That lie Was Right. WASHINGTON. Feb. 25. Two reports will be before the Lcnate committee on judiciary on Monday, when it meets to vote on tue investiftation of the absorp tion of the Tenness. foal & Iron Com pany by the I'nited States Steel Corpora tion. Since the publication of the ma jority report of the subcommittee de claring the mercer violated the Sherman law and rehukinc the President, the minority, Clark of Wyoming and PillinB ham. hare put their dissent in the form of m report. All day there was much . wire-pullinsr in the Senate preparatory to the vote. Limit to Committee's Duty. The minority contends the Senate does not impose upon the committee any duty to investigate or consider whether the absorption was a legal transaction, it will be asserted that the direction to the judiciary committee is limited to an opin ion as to the President's authority "to permit the absorption." as is shown by his message. The minority finds that there were just three relevent and im portant things disclosed by the Presi dent's message. They are. that the President told representatives of the Steel Corporation he could not advise them to take the action proposed, that he felt It no public duty of his to inter pose any objections un-LT the facts and circumstances detailed." him: and that the President assumes all responsibility for his action. Roosevelt Aeled on Facts. That the President acted under the facts as he then understood them is the opinion of the minority. It is declared that any other construction of this reso lution would be tantamount to asking the committee to judge the President's act. not in the light of the cirmucstances and facts surrounding him at the time of his action, but of those subsequently developed. In their opinion, this would manifestly be unfair and unjust. It is pointed out that, he notified the Attorney-General of the loi.versation he had had with Messrs. Gary and Frlck, but before receiving the letter from the President the Attorney-General advised him that the United States Steel Corporation had not , been under the ban of the law, and that in his opinion the absorption of the Tennessee concern would not change the legal situation. It is declared that t iis fact demon strates that the President was acting en tirely within the duties of his office. GOES AFTER HORSETHIEF Sherirf Ciets Clew to Theft of Val uable Team. Sheriff Stevens, accompanied by Dep uty Sheriff Bulger, left Portland last night on the 11:20 o'clock train for Scap poose In search of the horse thief who broke Into the stable on Lndd's farm-on Wednesday night and stole the prize winning pair of Clydesdale mares belong ing to F. E. McEldowney. superintendent of the farm. The theft was committed In the night and was not discovered until morning, when the farmhands went to the barn to feed the animals. The horses were very line specimens, each weighing JfW) pounds, and were valued at $1X). Information that the horses had been seen in the vicinity of Seappoose last night was received by Sheriff Stevens late in the evening and he departed in quest of the stolen animals and the thief without delay. The loss of the horses created a great shock on the Ladd farm and Mr. McEldowney immediately offered a substantial reward for their recovery. No trace of the thieves was left at the farm.

Malarkey, is bark in the city from a Columbia County esse by that time. About all the policemen of the force who could rake up an excuse for showing up in the courtroom were on hand yes terday awaiting the calling of the case. The arrest of a fellow officer in a raid on the rooming-house over the Quelle is the one subject of interest among mem bers of the department. It is said that a fund is being privately raised among the officers to help defend Stuart, but this Is denied by many of the officers of the department.

COOK VENTS BILLINGSGATE Colorado Outdoes Iowa, Calling President Political Speculator, Hypocrite, Dictator House Keeps on Restrictions. WASHINGTON. Feb. 25. By an over whelming vote and without party dis tinction, the House sustained today the committee on appropriations in again reporting a provision in the sundry civil appropriation bill, restricting the operations of the Secret Service detec tives of the Treasury Department. Smith, Republican, Iowa, a member of the appropriations committee and one of those named by the President in his mesage of January 4 as being responsible for the Secret Service limi tation, seemingly employed all the in vective at his command in an attack on that service. He compared the Se cret Service detectives with "common liars." The discussion arose over an amend ment offered by Bennett, of New York, striking out the provision limiting the field of operations of the Secret Serv ice. A similar paragraph in the last appropriation bill is what gave rise to the President's criticism of Congress men. Bennett strongly defended the Secret Service detectives. Smith Pours Out Vitriol. Smith replied that one of the requi sites of a detective was that he should be a "common liar." Respectable men, he said, would take places as postofflce inspectors and as special agents of the Interior Department, although occa sionally they might have to do some detective work, but, "the Idea that some three or four dollar a clay man who is willing to be a detective can familiarize himself with all the laws and therefore become more useful than a specialist is simply absurd." en.- Aniir TAi,ient Assassinated 4 DC UIHJ - since the Secret Service men were de- , . . n . i. 1, tolterit" Raid laiieci lu waivn Lin- a Smith, "was when President McKlnleya ,v,ot Hon-n at Buffalo with a Se- i cret Service man by his side, who was wi. v. .-q the annroacjlincr UllHUie I" v, . ; . - ' ' , . n..rH.r vith his bandaged hand. That man did not even capture the murderer." Cook Rails at Roosevelt. Cook. Republican, Colorado, also dis cussed the provision referred to the President as follows: "It is unfortunate not only for Pres ident Roosevelt, but for the country, that he has not a legal mind and has no equipoise of reason, riding through and around the arena of political action on his broncho of arrogant, egotistical impulse, pretending to throw his lariat of execution at the heels and broad horns of capital for the delectation of voting labor, and ending the scene with the cunning catch of a prairie wolf or a gopher." So denunciatory of the President was Cook that he was denied the privilege of continuing his remarks after he had spoken but a few minutes. In the main he was addressing himself to the work of the Secret Service agents' in Colo rado in a certain alleged land fraud case. One of them, he stated, was a horse thief. The case had come to the United States Supreme Court and was unanimously decided in favor of the defendants. Cook declared that "in all this fuss and feathers of the whole Administra tion the President and his pliant Attorney-General bad not sent a single plu tocrat to the penitentiary. Volley of Hot Epithets. "Such a political speculator and polit ical and financial strenuosity," he said, "has never been seen before in this Re public, and let us fervently hope that his like shall never be seen again. Look at the paragraphs of his rattled mes sages and you will be startled to see and read the insinuations and abusive phrases against the legisaltive and Ju dicial departments of the Government. President Roosevelt seems to think that he is the Government and that his ipse dixit must rule everybody. He runs the Government on the same prin ciple that the beef trust runs a sau sage factory from a personal stand point using executive and judicial pork to advance his fanatic administration. HyiKJcrlte and Dictator. "While Imitating Rienzi and Crom well in fooling the people, he is practic ing the' hypocrisy and dictatorship of Cleon and Dionysius and has built up a Rooseveltian Army. Navy, and civil service, all for his personal and polit ical glorv. Bupreme in his impudence and vanity, arrogance and imperial egotism. "His veto messages are made from the impulsive and ignorant informa tion of his Cabinet clerks, and the vacil lating Attorney-General is a weak le gal reed of the rough rider's depend ence who even recently gave a false statement to the President upon the joint resolution passed by Congress de termining the question of the bound ary line between the States of Colorado and Oklahoma and the Territory of New Mexico." The amendment of Mr. Bennett was rejected, 41 to 153. Only One "BKOMO QUININE" That la LAXATIVE bKUMO yUlMMB. Laok for "he .ignature of E W. GROVE.
