ri
i Confronted by a threat the Texan and
Colorado State Associations -would e
cede, the executive committee oi the
KaUonal Livestock Association, has pro
vided In the proposed new constitution
that rxllroads shall not be admitted to
membership. ' Other orpanlialonB were
inclined tovdo the Mine.

DENVER, Jan. 11. The -reorganization
plan of President "Frank J. Hagen
harth, by -which the National Livestock j
Association "was to be remodeled and j
ltd control vested In a board composed I
of representatives of the trades and
Interests allied in the raisins of live
stock, has been torn to pieces so far
as the railroads are concerned.
For two days an executive commit
tee composed of three representatives
of each Industry has been working- on j
the proposed reorganization, and It will
require at least one day more to, finish
Its -work. No report -will be made to
the convention before Friday morning.
Before it was dciinltely concluded to
prevent the railroads from acquiring
membership In the association a bitter
fight was waged in , the committee
room. The Texas and Colorado cattle
men became so wrought tip over the
possibility of the railroads having a
voice in the management of the Live
stock Association that they announced
their intention to withdraw from the
association if the measure was carried.
Other Western organizations gave evi
dence of a desire to take similar action,
and the adoption of the plan to admit
the railroads would probably have re
cited In the . 'disruption of the asso
c.atlon. '
Packers Are Admitted.
There was a lively debate over tho
packers, but it was finally decided to.
permit them to herd with the elect, and
they will be admitted into the associa
tion. All the other branches of tho
livestock Industry will also be allowed
to have representatives In the reor
ganization. Only the railroads remain
outside.
The roads are at a disadvantage as
far as a hearing is concerned. They
have no representation in the convene
tlon and are unable to make reply when
speeches attacking them arc made.
Their cause has been upheld before the
various committees by men who believe
that they should be admitted, but they
are not trained tra'fflc officials..
The general committee today com
piled a new set of by-laws for the con
trol of the organization, which are to
be printed tonight, considered anew by
the committee tomorrow morning, re
ferred to the various organizations to
morrow afternoon, considered again by
the committee and finally presented to
the convention for action on Friday
With Commission Men.
At the morning session of the con
vention "Vice-President .K A. Jastro, of
California, presided in" the absence or
President Hagenbarth. After the trans
action of some routine business Frank;
Cooper, of Kansas City. Mo., read a
paper on "The Commission Merchant
and -His Relation to the 'Livestock Busi
ness," A "brief discussion followed; led ".by A.
J. Bothwell. of "Wyoming, who took
strong exception to a statement made
by Mr. Cooper to the effect that the
struggle for life in the business world
no longer existed. He characterized
the talk of Mr. Cooper as "buncombe,"
and asserted that there were no men
In the world who fought so determin
edly for business as the commission
men whom Mr. Cooper represented.
Mr. Bell, of I-aramlc. "Wyo., spoke
strongly, urging the "cattlemen to stand
together against the railroads, which,
he said, did not treat the cattlemen
with sufficient consideration,
Frank Bruton. of Colorado, read a
paper describing livestock conditions
in the past as compared with those of
the present. His remarks were filled
with humorous hits at the cattle busi
ness and kept the convention In con
tinuous laughter. Mr. Bruton deplored
the low prices for beef that prevail
at the "present time, but declared that
the chief causeof, the situation was
the poor quality of beef sent to mar
ket. He advocated the sending of
smaller Jierds and the maintenance of a
higher standard in the quality of cat
tle shipped.
Regulation of Railroads.
-Governmental Regulation of Inter
state Transportation was the subject
of an exhaustive address by S. IE Cow
an, of Fort Worth. Tex. He .prefaced
his address proper by saying that the
stockmen were continually reminded
that they. should live in harmony with
thoee with whom they did business,
and' particularly with the railroads.
The roads in Texas, he asserted, had
Increased their rates on cattle within
.the last two years by from 20 to SO per
cent. XjUring t$at period; he-sald. tb
prices for cattle had gone up but 10 per
cent. There was small chance Xor har

stances, Unless a few concessions were
jaade.by-those onjhe othenjclde of the
question.
The existing Intejstate-comraeree. law
had been of 'great.- valtie. he declared,
and he was, opposed to the enactment
of a new statuTe-whlch? might possibly
destroy the benefits derived from the
present law without compensating
benefits. The speaker insisted that the
present law was adequate when some of
its Imperfections had been eradicated.
He urged that in all cases the orders
of the Interstate Comrqerce Commis
sion should be binding and not "bejset
aside unless It couM he 'shown -that,
they were in conflict with other laws.

It was- announced at the office -of Gov

Newland's Plan fop-Control of
Trunk Railroads,
GET. THEM 'OUT OFVOLITICS
Propose National ' Incorporation Act
for Interstate Roads and increase
of Powers of Interstate
Commerce Commission;'
WASHINGTON. Jan"-11. The attention
of "tho- Senate today, was divided by the'
statehood question .audi Governmental Teg-
Ttilajfton of "railroads.- -"Newlands made a
.formal 'speech on the railroad subject
and at its close engaged in a spirited con
troversy over the points involved with
Senators' Spooner. Foraker .and others.
All amendments to the statehood hill, ex
cept that relating to tlje liquor traffic
Jn Indian Territory, were agreed to.
The bill making the restriction on the
transportation of lottery tickets between
the states' applicable to transportation be
tween the states and territories was taken
up,ajdpassed.
Newlands then addressed the Senate on
the joint resolution which he Introduced
some days ago, which provides ,fof a
commission with instructions to frame a
.National Incorporation act for the con
struction o railroads engaged In inter
state commerce.
Newlands said It 'was time to ignore
state lines la operation and management
of railroads and added that the power
sought was constitutional and involved no
contradiction of Democratic views as
to tho reserved powers of states and local
self-government. He held that, because
of the relations of railroads to Inter
state commerce and the Jurisdiction of
Congress over Interstate commerce. Con
gress had a clear right to exempt Inter
state railroads Incorporated under Nation
al legislation from all state or local tax
ation nnd from the regulation of rates
by such states.
Increase Commission's Power.
He advocated nn Increase of authority
of the Interstate Commerce Commission
so as to authorise it to regulate rates.
and said the transfer of control of the
railroads now exercised by all the states
to the National Commission would have
the very desirable effect of destroying re
hates. Such control, he contended, would
be advantageous to the railroads, in that
It would relieve them from the opposi
tion of varying conditions of popular judg
ment and take them out of politics.
"The only way to get them out of pol
itics." he concluded, "Is to take away
their Interest In politics by making taxes
a. mathematical certainty, "by providing for
a fixed and just rate and by unifying the
control of their operations In a body of
great character and dignity, such as I be
lieve the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion to be."
Drive and Coax Roads
Foraker asked Newlands how he pro
posed to secure the reincorporation of the
various railroad companies, as proposed
by his resolution, to which Newlands
replied that his measure Is so framed as
to partially drive 'and partially coax tho
results. He added that one means which
might be resorted to would he to prohibit
roads from taking out any but National
corporation papers and from engaging it.
interstate commerce.
"JDoes the Senator claim that thf power
to prohibit is comprised in the power tov!
regulate commerce?" asked Foraker
Newlands "-cpHed that he thought so.
Spooner raised the. point that It would
he impossible, by Federal enactment, to
regulate commerce in the states.
Newlands replied he did not contend that
Congress had power to regulate commerce
confined exclusively to any one state- He
did contend, however, that when the Gov
ernment constructed a railroad no state
had power to tax It out of existence.
The statehood bill was taken up and an
amendment adopted which will have the
effect of leaving the location., of the Cap
itol to the Legislature of Oklahoma.
Paternalism for Indians.
Tho amendment prohibiting the sale of
liquor to Indians in Indian Territory .for
all time and In other sections for ten
ypars created discussion. Bcverldge main
tained it was necersary to protect the
Indians. Gorman called It a bad form of
paternalism and a reflection on the peo
ple of the proposed state. Morgan and
Mallory also criticised the amendment.
It was passed over for the time.
The amendment making a donation of
$5,000,000 for the benefit of the public
schools of the proposed State of Arizona
was" adopted, after striking out the pro
vision for the payment of interest on the
sum.
At the instance of Long the hill was so
amended as to require payment for Im
provements on leased lands before sale.
An amendment giving to the Senate ex
clusive Jurisdiction over National parks
and reservations also was inserted.
Foraker then presented his amendment,
providing that the portion of the bUl
applying to New Mexico and Arizona shall
not take-efTect" until It shall be favorably
voted upon, but pending Its consideration
the Senate at 4:15 went Into executive ses

should not receive the full pay of their
grade "when assigned to duty with the
militia of the several states. Several
members declared that the amendment
was directed especially at General Miles

some sarcastic flings were made at the
General, Hull denying that the amend

was adopted.

Hull said. In explaining the amendment
which provoked so much debate, that, un
til the enactment of the law giving In
creased pay to officers serving with tho
Billltla, not a single retired officer or the
higher rank applied for appointment. He
declared that a Captain or Major would
give more real service than the higher
officers, who "were now seeking tlje
places merely to get the pay.
Coclcran. of New York, opposed the
amfmianent as penalising superior offi
cers tihlle Inferior oJRccrs were being jj
encouraged.
Stevens, of' Unnesota. criticised the
higher ofScers for their "unseemly
scramhle to get more pay-"''
Cockran demanded the name of any re
tired officer d the higher grade who
had been guilty of unseemly conduct. "I
deny It," he said emphatically, "and the
silence of the gentleman from Minnesota
Js, a. withdrawal of the Imputation, and L
say it would be an outrage upon men
of that stamp and character If this House
should adopt tho amendment."
Williams of Mississippi, asserted the real
motive' behind the amendment was an
attack on" General Nelson A. Miles, In-spector-Seneral
of Massachusetts, "who
Is. extremely persona non grata. In high
circles of the Republican party." It was;
he ,sald. no new 'thing for the B.epub-
llcan party to slight the heroes of the
Nation and push Its favorites to the front.

country witnessed the manner In which
Rear-Admiral Schley was. treated and the
way In which General Miles was snubbed
in public, for what reason was not Known.
"But," ho said, amid laughter, "don't
ub him In his new state militia uni
form. Don't take that away from him
In "this time of his pride."
He said that. If economy was wanted,
the Democrats could say how to be eco
nomical. He then attacked the principle
of a large standing army or a. great
navy. Economy, he- said, should com
mence with the military, but. be added,
'dd not take It all but on General Miles
additional pay and his messachusetts
state uniform.
Hull said the amendment was "not of
fered with the Idea of affecting any par
ticular officer.
Grosvenor favored the amendment. He
sard he was opposed to the spectacular
deve'lopment of the state militia, believ
ing rather in company drills by officers
of the lower ranks. To maneuver 12,000
.or 14.000 men In sham battles, he as
serted, was tho grossest waste of public
money, utterly valueless to the soldiers
upon whom It was expended.
Thayer of Massachusetts said that Gov
ernor Douglas repeatedly had sought Gen
eral Miles for .the place before he would
accept. The people of Massachusetts
would -bcllgye the amendment to be a
thrust and an Insult to General Miles.
An amendmentby Robinson of Indiana
to strike from the House amendment the
words "above the grade of Major" was
lost by S2 to 92 and tho Hull amendment
was then adopted, 103 to 71. The bill was
laid aside after some further discussion.

dent said:
"Their severance from the academy,

IS AMERICAN ENTERPRISE.
China Warned Not to Cancel Hankow
Canton Railroad Franchise.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 11. The State De
partment has informed the Chinese Gov
ernment, through,- Minister Chentung
Liang Cheng, that it regards the Hankow-Canton
Railway as an American cor
poration, pure and simple, and as such
entitled to the protection of this Gov
ernment; also that It would notlook with
favor upon the proposed cancellation of
the railroad franchise by the Chlneso
Government.
Not long ago the American holders of
the securities of this corporation, which
Is operated under an American charter,
began negotiations looking to the trans
fer of their securities to foreigners. The
Chinese Government having granted the
franchise to an American corporation,
looked upon the proposed transfer of
stock as a breach of faith, warranting, a
cancellation of the franchlso to the com
pany. This led to a careful Inquiry by
the State Department into the facts, and
It was found the negotiations for the
transfer bad fallen through, and that all
of the stock was to remain" In American
hands, whereupon Secretary Hay, aa in
dicated, served notice upon the Chinese
Government that the department re
garded the railroad company as an Amer
ican corporation.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 11. Republican
members of the Houso committed on

earnings of the railroads shall be ap-1
plied, first, to defraying expenses of
the company: second, for ordinary and
necessary repairs; third, for extra
ordinary repairs, the cxpendltues for
this purpose to be approved by the

NEW YORK Jan. 1L (Special.) It
TEWkreported In banking circles today that
the UriloiTPacific directors, after declar
ing the regular semi-annual dividend, had
passed, resolution directing" the at-torneysfor-iha.
company to discontinue
their efforts to prevent' or delay the liqui
ds tiorf of the Northern: Securities assets
and tojnake no'appeal from the decision
of the United States Court rendered last
week. Mr. Miller, secretary to E. K.
Harriman, said, when asked'about the
report:
"1 do not wish to deny It. but I have
heard nothing of such action being taken
and know that no announcement to that
effect has been made."
The action of all the Harriman group
of stocks indicated that some special de
velopment had occurred. Northern Securi
ties advanced on heavy buying from
13 4 H to 13SH, the highest price on record,
and Union Pacific and Southern Pacific
were both conspicuously strong all day.
The Union Pacific directors met today,
about two weeks ahead of time, and de-
L dared the regular semi-annual dividend
of 2 per cent on the common stock, pay
able April 1. for which the books close on
February 22. There has been for some
time a difference of opinion as to what
action the directors would take at this
dividend meeting. E. Lamontagn has per
sistently asserted that the dividend rate
would not be changed until 1906, when the
right to exchange Union Pacific con
vertible bonds for the stock expired, but
another broker active in the stock pre
dicted continually that the dividend would
be 2! per cent, or at the rate of 3 percent
per annum.
Harriman and the Kuhn-Loeb brokers
today bought the stock steadily at ad
vancing prices and after the dividend was
announced the price reached the highest
point of the day.
CKAZY TO GET THEIR MONEY
Run on Bank on No Pretext Causes
Injury to Five Persons.
NEW YORK. Jan. 11. Three police
men and two Hebrew women were In
jured in at run on. the State Bank in
Broad street, in the heart of the busi
ness section of the East Side today.
It was accompanied by some sensa
tional Incidents. The five thousand per
sons crowded about the bank became
so insistent that they hroke down an
Iron railing around a light-well In
front of the building and it was only
by desperate clubbing on the part of
the pollco that the excited und unruly
mob was prevented from forcing many
of Its number Into the welL The po
licemen and women were hurt at thut
point. The emergency police detail
of the iJelaccv-street station was;
finally called out and policemen were
stationed at Intervals of five or six
feet for two blocks on each side of
tne bank.
The cause of the run was as extraor
dinary as the frenzied character of the
run Itself. Yesterday there was a rusdi
of depositors to get their money Into
the bank In time to begin to draw In
terest at once and the long line of
waiting depositors convinced the ex
citable Hebrews that something was
wrong with the Institution- Five hun
dred persons waited In front of the
building all last night and their num
ber quickly swelled to 5000 when the
bank opened today, though not all of
that number were depositors.
The bank, which has deposits of $10,
050,000 and a cash reserve of $4,000,000
and which. Cashier A. I. Voorhes
said, earned 244 per cent profits last
year, sent for money early today and
$250,0-0 was brought by the wagon. At
the sight of the money those waiting
became only moro Impatient to get at
It. The bank officials paid depositors
off as fast as the operation could be
conducted. In all. the bank paid out to
day $55,000, and received In deposits
540000.
Remarkable scenes attended the
