CLUB OVER 80L0N3
President Insists on Passage
of Trust Law,
OR WILL CALL EXTflA SESSION
Trxmt Senators Are Frightened at
Prospect and May Pass Mild Law
Tills Session on Lines Pro
posed by ICnox.
If an antitrust bill Is not Dassed at
this session of Congress, the President
will call an extra session of the Fifty
eighth Congress to act on the question.
Nobody wants an extra session, there
fore It Is probable that the trust Sen
ators -will Join In the -passage of a bill
at this session In order to avoid It.
The beet-sugar men have turned their
sura from .Cuban reciprocity to the
Philippine tariff bill and the aroDOsed
amendments of the Philippine govern
ment lairs.
There Is small prospect that a con
tract for building any of the new cruis
ers will come to the Pacific Coast. If It
should, th Union Iron "Works stands
the best chance.
Congressman Jones, of "Washington,
has returned from Cuba and cays the
Island Is prosperous, and does not need
reciprocity.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash
ington, Jan. 6. The Republican Senators
who have been so sure that there -will not
be any anti-trust legislation at this session
Jiave received something of an electric
shock from the "White House regarding
the matter. To all suggestions from the
President that there ought to be some
legislation on this subject, they have
given the "stereotyped answer that it is
not possible to pass any such bills at the
Ehort session of Congress. Here is where
the President has given them a jog by in
timating that there will be plenty of time
in the 58th Congress to take up trust leg
islation, if this Congress does not act.
While he does not say so directly, the
intimation which these Senators receive
is that, if this session does not pass some
trust legislation in accordance with the
demands of the people, there will be a
special session of the 5Sth Congress im
mediately after the 4th of March for the
purpose of taking up such legislation.
The Senators opposed to any trust legis
lation had expected that there would be
nothing done at this session, and that It
would bo practically impossible to do
much early in the long session of the 58th
Congress, and that two years at least
could pass before the subject was touched
"upon, and they would "be required to vote
one way or another upon the subject. Now
It seems that they will have to act or face
the possibility of an extra session.
No one wants an extra session. The
President- does not want it, and Senators
and Representatives least of alL They
especially would dislike to be called into
extra session for the purpose of acting
on trusts and to have that SDecifled in
the President's proclamation. For that
reason some effort will be made, and pos
sibly with success, to pass legislation of
a mild character tending to strengthen
the anti-trust law on the lines suggested
by Attorney-General Knox. v
FIGHT PHILIPPINE TARIFF.
Bcct-Snprnr Men Turn Attack to
It
From Cnlinn Treaty.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Jan. G. It having become apparent
that further opposition to Cuban reci
procity was useless, the beet-sugar inter
ests have now turned their attention to
the Philippine-, and are trying to defeat
the bill which passed the House providing
for a reduction of the tariff on Philippine
products to 25 per cent of the present
Dlngley rates.
These men are also Industriously work
ing against any provision looking to al
lowing the Philippine law to be amended
fo that corporations can take npre than
5000 acres in- the islands, and also to keep
ing up the present restrictions against
Chinese labor. The beet-sugar interests
say that, although the Philippines are so
far away in miles, they are in effect only
a short, distance away, on account of the
low water rates, and that, if Philippine
sugar Is allowed to come In at 25 per cent
of the Dlngley rates, the American mar
ket will be injured and beet-sugar grow
ers especially.
It is more than likely that the men who
have been most active in favor of Cuban
reciprocity will not look with favor upon
a reduction on Philippine products, es
pecially if the claims of the beet-sugar
men have any foundation, and if, Philip
pine sugar is to be a great factor In the
sugar market and production of the
United States. The opposition to this
Philippine legislation Is growing, as Ox-
nard and other beet-sugar advocates are
always able 16 work up quite a stron
support when they come to "Washington
In force.
SMALL CHAXCB FOR COAST.
It It Gets Warship Contract, Union
Iron Works Will Win.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
lngton, Jan. 6. It is possible, but not
probable, that one of the new arm
ored cruisers, the Washington or the
Tennessee, will he built on the Pacific
Coast If a Coast bid is accepted, It
will be that of. the Union Iron Works, of
San Francisco, whose bid of $4;365,000 is
$3000 within the 4 per cent differential al
lowed builders on the Coast, reckoning on
the lowest bid submitted for a single
-vessel at 54,200,000, offered by the Cramps
If, however, the department considers
the hid of the Cramps for building both
cruisers at $4,000,000 each, the Pacific
Coast bidders will be altogether ex
cluded.
Moran Bros., of Seattle, were hopeful
bidders, but, as their offer was next to
the highest submitted, there Is no pos
sibility of the award being made to them
a fact which Moran today admitted.
JOXES HOME FROM CUBA.
Says Island Does Xot Seed Recipro
city and Is Prosperous.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Jan. 6. Congressman Jones, of
Washington, returned to the city today
from a trip to Cuba, fully convinced that
there Is no occasion whatever for grant
ing tariff concessions to the Island, or for
the adoption of the reciprocity treaty. He
found the island apparently thrifty and
prosperous, with no particular 'demand
for reciprocity on the ground of neces
sity. Such a reduction In tariff rates, he
Is convinced, would benefit only the sugar
trust and the brokers, but would In no
way help the. farmers and other small In
dustries. The people arc divided as to annexation.
The Spaniards and all the wealthier
classes favor annexation; the common
people, who carried on the war against
Spain, demand absolute freedom, while
the lowest classes are indifferent.
Mr. Jones says there Is not a cleaner
city In this country than Havana Is to
day. Its rehabilitation Is a glowing trib
ute to the Americans who carried on the
great work.

FOR QUICK RELIEF.
(Continued from First Page.)
some of them would be counterbalanced
by corresponding advantages, and added:
"I confess I like to see Plerpont Morgan
buying up great lfties of ocean steamships.
I like to hear of foreign potentates and
principalities and powers bowing down
when he visits the continent of Euroje.
We heed great strength. We need great
Individual power If we are to rival foreign
nations In the great matters which they
also control by Individual power. We
must. If we can. look out In protecting
ourselves, not to destroy them, nor to
'cramp them. We can give them a law
which will not Impair their strength and
not check their natural and rightful
growth, and that I hope is all we mean
to do.
"But great wealth should be controlled
as the servant of man and of govern
ment, and -should not be given the reins
of control. We must keep control over
agencies which can make cities grow or
wither."
Mr. Hoar said that he did not agree with
those who think they find an adequate
remedy for the evils of the trusts In the
removal of the tariff from all trust-made
articles. He opposed the Government
ownership of great labor-empl6ing Indus
tries, including coal mines and railroads.
Socialism, he said, furnished no remedy,
but would be quite as bad as the trusts
themselves.
Speaking of corporations, Mr. Hoar said
no power less than that of the Empire
Nation Is capable of dealing with them.
The question was the mpst Important that
had come up for a long time, "for," ho
said, "we are to' deal not only with for
eign commerce, but with that compared
with which the foreign comnfcrcc of the
world Is but a drop In the bucket the do
mestic commerce of the United States.
This commerce," he continued, "is In then
hands of the great corporations, and it Is
properly In their hands. Their work
might be beneficent as well as otherwise,
and for this reason Congress should go
slowly and carefully In devising a remedy
for the Ills, lest It should bring on others
which might be worse."
Discussing the accomplishments under
the Sherman anti-trust law, Mr. Hoar said
that the Attorney-General had gone far
enough, already under It to break up a
monopoly which affected the whole freight
and passenger traffic of the Northwest,
another affecting the cotton trade of tho
South, and another the price of beef.
He believed that Congress had power to
go further on tho lines Indicated by At
torney-General Knox In his Pittsburg
speech, and the enactment of a law on
the general lines of his bill, he thought,
would be only another step In tne direc
tion of the anti-trust. His bill he con
sidered tentative and experimental. But
It was safe and could be modified, we
should proceed safely, step by step.
Provisions of His Bill.-
He then presented the following outlines
of the restrictions Imposed by his hill on
corporations:
First Publicity In the conduct of tlieir
business and the constitution of their or
ganization. Second The power to stop their business
altogether If they violate the laws en
acted by Congress.
Third Strict penalties on them and tnelr
officers for such violations.
Fourth Personal liability for all debts,
obligations and wrong-doings of the direc
tors, officers and agents, unless tne laws
be fully complied with. This liability is
secured by requiring personal consent
to the provisions of this bill and accept
ance of all its obligations by such offi
cers, directors and agents before they en
ter upon office.
As to the effect of the measure in case
it becomes a law, he said:
"If this bill shall become a law and
prove effective, no corporation engaging
in the commerce which Is within the
jurisdiction of Congress can keep lt3 con
dition a secret. No sucn corporation can
do business on fictitious capital or wat
ered stock. No corporation can oppress
any rival, whether corporate or individual,
by any unlawful practices. If It do, It
will bo on the condition mat every one oi
its rnanagors becomes personally liaoiu
for Its debts and its torts, and will be
liable also to heavy criminal liability.
This bill depends for Its validity on tho
constitutional power of Congress to regu
late International and Interstate com
merce." Uoon the conclusion of Senator Hoar s
speech. Nelson (Minn.) resumed his re
marks, begun yesterday, In opposition to
the omnibus statehood bill. Soon after
Nelson began to speak Beverldge suggest
ed the absence of a quorum, and only 40
Senators responded. It took half an hour
to secure a quorum, and Aelson had not
concluded his speech when, at 4:20 P. M.,
the "Senate went Into executive session and
soon afterward adjourned.

CLAY'S ANTI-TRUST BILL.
Gives President Power to Suspend
Duty on Trust-Made Goods.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 6. Senator Clay,
of Georgia, today introduced a bill for the
free Importation of commodities controlled
by trusts. The bill confers upon the
President authority to Issue a proclama
tion suspending the collection of all cus
toms duties on such articles brought frcm
foreign countries. This provision Is, ac
cording to the terms of the bill, to be
exercised whenever the President shall be
satisfied that a combination Intended to

COMPEL THEM TO AGREE.
Governor Stone Urfres Restrictions
v on Right to Strike.
HARRISBURG, Pa., Jan. 6. The Penn
sylvania Legislature organized today, the
Republicans having a majority on Joint
billot of 141. This assures the re-elec
tion of United States Senator Penrose by
the joint convention of the Senate and
House on January 20. In the afternoon
the Governor's message was presented.
Governor Stone devotes considerable
space to the recent anthracite coal strike.
He says the strike of the anthracite min
ers and their associate workmen was the
most Important and far-reaching event
of Its kind that ever occurred In the state,
and that the expenses Incurred by the
state In connection with the disturbances
caused by the strike will exceed $1,000,000.
The Governor urges the passage of a law
to prevent future labor disturbances as
follows:
"In my Judgment a compulsory arbitra
tion law could and should be passed for
the settlement of differences between em
ployer and employe. Such a law Is en
tirely constitutional and feasible, looking
upon strikes as Injurious to the public,
harmful to society and destructive to life
and property. They are generally settled
after all harm has been done. Why should
not they be settled before the harm Is
done and before large losses occur to life
and property?
"We should recognize strikes as exist
ing evils and as dangerous to the public
good, and while mindful of the rights of
both employer and employe, adjust them
from a higher standpoint, namely, for the
Rood of society, the preservation of public
peace and life and property. When a largo
strike Is settled we delude ourselves with
the thought that no more will occur. Wo
should contemplate tnem as UKeiy to oc-
cur again with the same results as In the
past. Without crlticlslns employers or
employes, without blaming either, wo
should so legislate as to prevent the re-'
currence of these disturbances.
Referring to the Insurance of children,
he Eays:
"I heartily concur In the opinion of tho
Insurance committees that a law should
be passed limiting the amount of Insur
ance on children to a burial benefit, and
fixing an age under which they would
not be accepted."
The Governor recommends that some
additional legislation be passed for the
protection of children who. he says, are
too young to work In factories, but are
employed in coal breakers, slate and stone
quarries. He says:
"I heartily concur in the opinion of the
factory Inspector that It Is inconsistent to
prohibit a child 12 years of age from
working In a factory or mercantile estab
lishment and allow him to secure employ
ment In more dangerous and undesirable
places."
