Mar shall architect of the Iroquois Theater, and Monroe Fulkerson, attorney for the Chicago Fire Department, -were witnesses today before the Iroquois Theater inquest. Mr. Marshall's testimony related en tirely to the construction of the building and the changes which had been made In It since the drawing of the first plans. His testimony flatly contradicted that of Building Commissioner "Williams, who de clared he had visited the theater only once about two weeks prior to the open ing. Mr. Marshall said he personally conducted the Commissioner through the building four dayB before the opening, and Mr. Williams pronounced It thoroughly fireproof, and the best-constructed the ater he had ever seen. Mr. Marshall declared that the blind passageway. In which nearly 100- persons were killed, never was Intended as an exit, and showed to the Coroner's jury that it was not so marked on the plans. Mr. Fulkerson became involved in trouble with'' the Coroner over the fact that a short time before the flre In the Iroquois Theater his ofllce had Issued cer tificates of safety to nearly every the ater. In Chicago excepting the Iroquois. The certificate was not Issued to the Iroquois because the theater was not ready for Inspection at the time the others were investigated. These certificates, At torney Fulkerson declared, were issued because the aisles were sufficiently wide to meet the requirements of the city ordinances. tary of State -Hay -arrived tonight at Tbomasvllle. accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Payne Whitney and family.

(Continued from First Page.) own Interests on the isthmus, but those of the civilized world. Tillman asked if the attitude of the Co lombian forces was not in the nature of a "dicker, or badger, to increase the price of going." Piatt replied that Commander Hubbard and his 42 men had nothing to do with the buying of the departure of the Co lombian troops. He added he had seen the newspaper report that the American vice-consul, who was not an American citizen, had supplied money to secure Torres' departure. Even If that were true, It did not involve in complicity the Government of the United States. There would bo, he added, no difficulty in ac cepting the theory of good faith In those matters. If Senators wanted a canal at Panama and did not want It at Nlcar gua. "I wnt a canal at Panama," responded Tillman, "if we do not have to steal It." Hot Fling at Tillman. To this expression Piatt took exception os unworthy of a gentleman. Piatt spoke briefly of the doctrine of "International eminent domain," but said the phrase was a misnomer, as there was no question of domain involved. "But," he added, "there is reason for saying that if tho people owning tho strip of land across which the world has said there should be an lnteroceanlc canal, hedge It about with difficulties, strike for more money and hold up nego tiations, the United States, if the canal cannot be built In any other way, will build It with a strong arm. and the mes sage of the President was entirely justi fied on that point." Speaking of the President's recognition of the new republic, Piatt said: "The act stands out as that of a brave and fearless man; as that of a man who Is neither rash nor Impetuous. He did the right thing at tho right time; the thing which will Insure the building of the canal, when has been long delayed. We will ratify tho treaty; we will build tne canal, and, when the ships of the whole world with their cargoos are traversing it. these critlalsms, these attacks, these vi tuperatlons will be forgotten, and what ever Mr. Roosevelt may do In the present or any other term of office, this act will stand forth as the greatest of his career." Tillman's Bold Declaration. Tillman was recognized to road the Os tend manifesto and the comment mado on it by the Republican platform of 1856, He contended that the policy of the pres ent Administration was that "might makes right. He declared our course in Panama to bo "simply greedy and dirty." Toller snoke In reply to Piatt's refer once to the attacks n the President and said ho (Toiler) had not reached the point that "the king can do no wrong'AB for himself, he was going to vote against the treaty, because it had been negotiated with a combination of men who had no right to make it. If tho treaty should be rati fled, ho would accept it as the law of the land, but until that was done he should exercise his right as a Senator to oppose it, even though he thereby should win executive disfavor. He did not deny the right of the President to recognize the independence of PanamaT but if he did not exercise just discrimi nation he was subject to adverse critt dsm. Whan Teller concluded the Senate went into executive sossion ana soon aajournea. Senator is Confined to Bed by a Very Severe Cold. WASHINGTON, Jon.

LAND LAWS ARE BAD National Board of Trade Asks for Repeal of Three.. PART OF SETTLER IS TAKEN 7. Congress Urged to Wipe Out the Tim ber and Stone and the Desert Land Acts, Also Commutation - Clause in Homestead Law. WASHINGTON, Jan. ZL The National Board of Trade today adopted resolutions declaring that "the timber and stone act, the desert land act, and the commuta tion clause of the homestead act should be forthwith repealed, and in future all agri cultural and irrigable land reserved exclu sively for actual settlers under the home stead act; that in future the Government should reserve the title to forest lands. selling only the fetumpase of matured timber: also that the forestry work of the Government should be consolidated in the Bureau of Forestry of ' the De partment of Agriculture; that the great irrigation works necessary to. save from waste and utilize for Irrigation the waters of our large Western rivers should be built as rapidly as the lands will be taken and utilized by farmers In farms of, 1C0 acres or less in area, and the en tire cost of construction repaid to tna Government through a charge imposed on the lands reclaimed. jv resolution was adopted urging Con gress to proviae some other method than is provided In the bills now pending be fore Congress for the proper protection of this country from" undesirable Immi gration. The postal committee's report, which was adopted, approved the plan to pro vide small Government notes with spaces for making on indorsement thereon, such notes when Indorsed and with a postage stamp affixed and duly canceled, to be payable at any postofflce on presenta tion by the payee. The committee rec ommended to Congress the passage of House bill 1976, popularly known as the post-check bill, and of HOuse bill 405S, providing for the. manner of payment of postage on boolts, catalogues and other printed matter. The committed also urged on Congress the advisability of adopting a parcels post system.' The re ductlon of letter postage to l cent an ounce was recommended. Resolutions were adopted favoring the establishment and maintenance of ju dicious reciprocal relations with the chief foreign markets of the world, and Es pecially with the Dominion of Canada and other contiguous countries; favoring free alcohol Used in the arts and manu factures; Issuing of coupons with the sale of tobacco; favoring ratification of the Panama Canal treaty; approving recent legislation extending the National navl gatlon laws to i...npplne commerce and recommending mat the law be made fective on July 1, 100i. OTJE SMALL CHANGE. really no occasion for Hxlng any limit whatever to the coinage of change. , The treasury makes a profit on every ounce of silver coined into change, and tho persona purchasing- It pay that profit only when their business warrants it. There is therefore no motive for on excessive Issue, and no loss to the Government if by mis- judgment on the part of purchasers such an issue should take place. If the Gov ernment should issuo all the change asked for at par In gold and redeem. In gold all change presented In.. suitable Quantities, demand and supply would balance, the re quirements of the country would "be au tomatically met, and no one would suffer loss or inconvenience. Practically this is the view taken in a bill introduced Into the House by Mr. Hill, of Connecticut, and it Is the view of the present Secretary of the Treasury. Heretofore the silver for the small coins has been provided from the bullion in the treasury, but that is now nearly ex hausted. It is proposed now to coin Into change as required the silver dol lars which . havo accumulated - in the Treasury to the amount of some $500, 000.000, for which certificates are outstanding- or in the possession of the Government That would be entirely safe. In the first place the certificates are not likely to be presented for ex change Into dollars. In tho second place for every $100 thus coined the Govern ment would receive $107 in gold,, that being1 the seigniorage on minor coins as compared with standard dollars, and the arrangement of the Redemption Bureau under the admirable plan of 1900 would make the exdhange entitely feasible. As was pointed out the other day in Chicago by Senator Allison, the sliver certificates and the silver dollars must ultimately be redeemed in gold wbotfevo .jleelr.cL . In the meantimo the coinage of the standard dollars as asked for into halves, quarters and dimes would be the best possible use to make of them. The demand for change Is bound to Increase steadily; it is a perfectly wholesome demand; It ought fully to be met. Co-Operation Against Yellow Fever. WASHINGTON. Jan. ZL Surgeon-Gen- eral Wyman, of the Public Health .and Marino Hospital Service, today returned from Mexico, where he secured the co-operation of that government in measures intended to prevent the recurrence of epi demics In yellow fever regions.

Thibetans May Resist British. CALCUTTA, Jan. 21. Reports from the British expedition to Thibet indicate that the Thibetans are likely to show fight. Tho native priests declare that they will appeal to Russia if the advance continues. Advantage of Putting Silver Stock into Small Coins. New York Times. Tho rapid growth of the country In many -varied directions Is sharply brought out by the Increase In the demand for change, "subsidiary coinage," as It Is called In the slang of the statutes. Every one has a general notion of the immense advance made in the use of checks and in the settlement of balances through the clearing-houses, which certainly do away With the necessity of employing a large amount of money in the form of bills and coins that would otherwise be required. But while, under this system, less money Is used than would be If the system had not grown up, it still remains true that a groat deal more money Is needed than at any previous stage In our history. And the need shows itself in respect to small change even more strikingly than with reference to small bills. As lfcte as 1W0, when the latest currency bill was passed, the limit of small coin ago was ftxed at $100,000,000, which is $1.23 for every man, woman and child In tho country. It was even so late as then thought that this limit would be ample for the requirements of trade for some years to come. While the bill was under Has a Hen a Mind? New York Times. I was advised some weeks ago to call at the home of R. Henry Golder, M. D., with a viow to coming in possession of a fact which would go to the support of my holding in blophllism with regard to the mental powers of the lower crea tures. I followed this advice, with gratifying results. The doctor and his Wife and daughter think it wise to en courage any person or community of per sons. This thought of theirs is co com prehensive as to include their hens. So, whenever there was a cackle, joined by cackles, the leading' voice and the chorus indicating that an egg had been laid, one of them would go out ahd feed the flock. After the feeding there would be a look ing for tho egg. And for U long while an egg was always found. But upon one oc casionafter the cackle, the cackles and the feeding, be It noted an egg was not found. This occurred upon subsequent occasions. It occurred so often that my friends the Golders began to think that they were being Imposed upon. This im pression grew till the time came when the hens were not laying at all the niolt ing time. If they were not Impostors, then it should appear. But the cackle and the cackles which should have indicated that an egg was come, continued from time to time, till it was evident that they would not have the desired effect. Then they ceased.

Jan. 21. Senutor Morgan's bill providing for the annexation of Panama to the United States Is being utilized as a weapon by the French opponents to the transfer of the canal concession. George Thiebaud today bitterly assailed this movement, saying the Morgan proposition was only another step In the direction of arbitrary expropriation "and violation of international law and the rights of the people by the United States. "If Colombia Is not as energetic as wa Venezuela," he added, "she will not only lose her cause but all the weaker states of Central and South America will little by little be absorbed." M. Thiobaud advises Colombia to go to war. Twenty Miles In Aisles at 04 Fair. ST. LOUIS, Jan. a.
