HEAR OTHER SID Ell Senate Committee WantsjTime for Rate CAR MACK HITS AT ROOSEVELT impossible to Act at Thfs Session Without Jgnorlng Railroad Side of Case- Protest Against Government Ownership. lyASHhCGTjOX, -Ee.b. 21. When, the Senate tjujivencd . today, Carmack, a marabbr,"of the obrhmfttce on Interstate commerce, presenied a petition for rallroad'rate legislation. Carmack gave place 16 El kins, chairman of the com mittee, to make reply. Elkins said: v3"he- bill which passed, the House" reached the Senate about ten days ago. During that time tho Senate has had tflniost continuouK sessions, but only One friend of the railroads has been heard. The committed Mias "given" Iho -best attention possible, to the bill, but Ihere has been no time to consider the amendments, and several are believed to be Important. No -decision as" to .an effort to pass the bill this session, has been reached, but with the limited time at their disposal it would .seem that there Is-Vjory. little prospect of that re &ult before adjournment, wlth.only ten days of the session left, and with much other Important business to be per formed. It would hardly seem probable that the most' important economic ques tion of the day could be disposed of in ko short a time, and especially in view of the fact that only one side of the question has so far been presented to the committee." Carmack Waxes Sarcastic. Carmack, a member of the committee on Interstate commerce, excused him self from speaking: for the committee on the ground that such Joyous har mony exists there as to obliterate party lines. He said he could assure the Sen ate that all of the committee are actu ated by a keen desire to execute at the earliest possible moment the promises made by the President" of the United States and through tho medium of the Democratic platform, and to add that "it Is tho intention of the whole com mittee to be guided in this matter by 'the President. " "Indeed," ho added, "I may go further Rnd. say. knowing the chairman-of the committee will correct me if I am wrong, that I am authorized to inform the Senate that all the members recog nise in the President the foremost dis ciple and the ablest lieutenant of "Wil liam J. Bryan." The statement caused a general burst of laughter and the Incident closed. A number of Senators sought recog nition for the passage of bills, but Hale objected. He called attention to the lit tle time allowed for business before 2 o'clock, the hour when, under agree ment, the Swayne impeachment trial must be taken up. Proctor presented a partial confer ence report on the Army bill. He said that the Senate amendment to the pay of Army officers assigned to active duty is among those upon which no agreement had been reached. The par tial agreement was adopted and a further-conference ordered. - The military .academy appropriation bill was taken up and passed. The only alteration by the Senate was made at the instance of Piatt (Conn.), who moved an amendment placing on the retired list, as Brigadier-General, Jo seph R. Hawley. as nis term will ex pire on March 4 next. As passed, the bill carries $667.tflD. Bevoridge presented the credentials oC James A. Hemenway. as Senator to succeed Fairbanks, which were accept ed in spite of some technical objections 'from Bailey. Consideration of tho Indian appro priation bill was then begun. On a point of order by Lodge, the amendment 'prohibiting Army officers from being appointed Indian agents was stricken out. Wove to End Swayne Trial. At 2" o'clock the hearing in the Swayne impeachment trial was re sumed. Kale presented an order for a vote in the Swayne case at 4 P. M., Sat urday, and asked that It go over until tomorrow. Palmer replied that the. House mana gers would desire at least six hours for the presentation of the case for the prosecution. He said that each of the managers would desire to be heard. Mr. Higglnn then resumed his opening statement in Judge Swayne's Interest. Mr. Higgins concluded at 2:25 P. M. and Attorney "W. Blount, of Pensacola. was recalled as the first witness on behalf of the respondent. "When Mr. Blount concluded the trial was sus pended for tho day and the Senate be gan consideration of the bill for the government of the Isthmian Canal Zone. Teller and Bailey took exception to the provision authorizing the use of the rentals of the Panama Railroad in constructing the canal without first turning them into the Treasury- The bill was amended so as to meet the objection. Government Railroads Opposed. Bailey also objected to the acquisi tion of the Panama Railroad by the Government, but- said that, if the. Gov--crnment really wanted the road, it should be condemned outright. Teller 1ho expressed the opinion that the ownership of the Panama Railroad would be construed as a precedent for Government o'wnershlp,.fand said- that iho ownership by the Government of all of Iho railroads of the United States would present a condition ''frlglitful to contemplate." The bill was not completed, and it was arranged that the Senate would meet at 1 o'clock tomorrow and, after reading Washington's farewell address, consideration of the canal bill should be resumed. At 5:28 P. M. the Senate Vent into executive session and at "6:05 the doors were reopened and Fairbanks, for Plan (N. Y.), notified the Senate of the death of Representative Otis. A committee to attend the funeral was appointed. SENATE COMMITTEE DIVIDED Dolliver Wants Prompt Action, Oth ers Favor Long Investigation. ! WASHINGTON. Feb. 21. The Senato committee on Interstate commerce today reached no definite conclusion as to post ponement of railroad rate legislation ,at this session of Congress. The committee will go Tjn wjth hearings Thursday, when the resolution of Senator Kean providing for an investigation of the subject dur ing the recess will be considered. The committee considered for more than an hour the question of reporting to this seesion a bill for the regulation of rail road rates or a resolution asking that the committee be authorized to sit during the recess to perfect some measure that will meet the objections urged against the Esch-Townsend bill, which was passed by the House. The sentiments expressed by members of the committee were so varied ihat agreement ,was. impossible and amid. confusion the committee was tdjourned Chairman Elkins. with the announce ment that a meeting will be held on Thursday to hear Stuyvcsant nab, presi dent of the Illinois Central Railroad, and others who have been Invited .by the com- mlttee. The controversy over the programme to be adopted was precipitated when the committee was called to order. Senator Dolllvcr moved that the com mltteo take up the Ebch-Townsend bill and other measures before the commit tee and continue .meeting every day until some bill can bo reported to the present session of Congres?. 'Opponents of the bill remonstrated. Chairman Elkins declared that the number of protests that had been made against the bill parsed by the House and the number of demands for hearings made by the Interests affected by the proposed legislation made it Imperative that exhaustive hearings be held. Senator Cullom called attention to the President's message on rate legislation, and argued that it was due him that some action-be taken at the present session. Tn response to the demands .for Imme diate action on the House bill. Senator Kean said that yearly every lawyer that had examined it had poked his fingers through it, and declared many .of its provisions- unconstitutional, and that It does not reach the evils complained of by shippers, but that it did jeopardize tho securities of the railroads. "Why, the President himself rcallr.es that no action can be had at the present sossion," interrupted Chairman Elkins. "He does not indorse this bill now. and believes that a better measure can be drawn. He Js willing to take the responsi bility of a postponement, especially as he has ,becn assured that If no measure Is passed at this session the committee will meet early and press an investigation right through." Senator Kean prepared a resolution sev eral weeks ago, asking that the com mittee "be designated to sit through the Summer, but after consultation with members of tho committee It was decided to submit it to the committee Instead of offering it in the Senate. He had in tended to offer it today, but Senator Dol liver forestalled it with his motion. Tho resolution was not before the committee, but its provisions were known and the course suggested formed the basis of the argument. No vote of any kind was had during the meeting, and a division of the committee could not be made from the arguments. Senator Carmack favored the Dolllver motion, but said he would not vote for the Esch-Townsend bill in itp present form. Senator Foster and Senator McLaurin said they had not fully made up their minds in regard to the, bill -before them. It was the overwhelming sentiment that the bill could not be reported without ad ditional hearings, but It was not deter mined whether there should bo a limit of time placed on the investigation. Senator Dolllvcr announced that he would renew his motion when the com mittee meets again, and said further that if a resolution is adopted to sit after tho adjournment of Congress, he would move to amend to require an early report. GAVE WORD AND BROKE IT Russian Officers Were Pledged Not to Leave San Francisco. "WASHINGTON, Feb. 21. The Navy De partment today received a report from Admiral McCalla, commandant of the Mare Island Navy Yard, stating that tho three Russian officers of the J-na who left the uhlp at San Francleco and are now In St. Petersburg, gave him, individ ually and personally, their paroles not to go beyond the limits of San Francisco, except upon express permiwion from the President of the United States, or in ac cordance with any arrangements that might bo reached touching- their move ments between the governments of Rus sia and Japan. Admiral McCalla's report Is in response to a request from the Navy Department following. a suggestion reaching the State Department that the officers left under a misunderstanding of the conditions under which the Russian transport was allowed to be Interned and did not in tend to break their paroles. The three Russian officers" were granted a week's leave from their ship, which lies at Mare Island, to visit San Francisco, their applications being approved by the captain of the "Lena. The naval officers here feel that It Is only fair to this of ficer to say that he appears to be greatly distressed at their disappearance. He fur- j nlshed Admiral McCalla with such Infor mation as he has been able to secure touch ing the whereabouts of .the three officers. Therefore no orders have been sent to Admiral McCalla to suspend further pa roles in the case of the Lena's officers and crew, and he. will be allowed to ex ercise his discretion In dealing with the matter. No response has yet come from SL Petersburg to the reports that have been made by tho State Department concern ing the disappearance of the three Russian oftlcers. and it is presumed that the Rus sian Foreign Office is seeking Information by cable from the Russian Consul-General at San Francisco, and the captain of the Lena ibs the basis for its reply. STOESSEL ARRIVES IN CRIMEA Welcomed by Weeping Crowds, Ho Defends His Surrender. KAFFA, Crimea, Feb. 21. Lieutenant General Stoessel, the former command er at Port Arthur, arrived here today. General Stoessel was welcomed by a cheering crowd. At the dock-side, a deputation from the municipality pre sented him with the traditional bread and salt and an address of welcome. Stoessel, addressing the assemblage, said: "My officers and soldiers coining back to the fatherland bow to you." Many relatives of those who had de fended Port Arthur were present, and there were pathetic exhibitions of grief or Joy, according to the news re ceived. Stoessel personally condoled with, the widows and orphans, and many of them kisstd his hand. The General expressed indignation at the London newspaper reports re garding the number of the" available troops at Port Arthur at the time of the surrender of the fortress, and said the statements made wcro all untrue. The Russian fleet, ho added, was de-' stroyed beyond repair, there was no medicine In the fortress; it could not have been held more than a day longer and the surrender saved the women and children.

SPARK OF LIFE IN ONLY ONE Explosion in Alabama Slays 116 Men and So Disfigures Them That It Destroys Color Line Forty Five Bodies Recovered. BIRMINGHAM. Ala., Feb. 21. Forty flve blackened human bodies had been recovered from the Virginia mine at a late hour tonight, and laid out for iden tification. It is now stated positively that 116 men were In the mine at the timo or the explosion, and not the slightest hope is held out that one of -them will live to tell of the disaster. BIRMINGHAM. Ala.. Feb. 21. The scene at the Virginia mine this after noon, where a terrific afterdamp explo sion yesterday afternoon imprisoned 316 men 700 feet below the surface, was the most gruesome and harrowing that GRAND DUKE NICHOLAS, WHO MAY SUPERSEDE GEN ERAL KUROPATKIN IN THE EAST i I I I I H III II I - ., ... 1T 1 TTT ' - . JflMMKV KrJA' Grand Duke Nicholas Nikol&Icvitcb, who, it is rumored, will take supreme com mand in Manchuria, is reputed to be a treat cavalry leader. Hla father.

Itumora were current last September, aoon afier the battle of Hao-Tany. that Nicholas would be sent to the front to take command, but no action was taken by the Csar. has ever been witnessed in this section of Alabama. Of the miners who entered tha mines yesterday afternoon, so far only 50 bodies have been recovered. The recovery already of so many dead bodies precludes the idea that any liv ing men remain among the unfortu nates still In tho mine. f The corpses are frightfully mangled and disfigured and identification is al most impossible. Many of them arc so badly bruised, twisted and discolored that negroes cannot be told from white men. One hundred families and 300 children are left destitute and without means of support by the calamity, and they are of the best class of mining fami lies in Alabama. As the bodies of the victims, which in many cases have been gathered to gether a piece at a time, are brought to the surface, they are. placed in rows on a rough platform, and tonight ambu lances began' the removal of those so far recovered to Bessemer. The excavation of the debris has been hampered. The foul gases which had collected in tile stope made nec essary the use of safety lamps and It was found that less than a score of safety lamps were available in the dis trict. Union miners went to the scene from practically all the mining camps within a radius of 25 miles to aid in the work of rescue. Out of the 50 bodies recovered up to this time, ono was found about 4 o'clock which was barely alive. The body was carefully taken from the mine and heroic methods resorted to to bring the man to consciousness. He is still alive, but scaqt hope Is held out for his recovery. President Flynn, of the. Alabama Mineworkers, said to the Associated Press tonight: "I shall bev surprised if a single per son escapes alive from that mine. Ven tilation Is very difficult and. if tho men were not killed by the explosion, they certainly have been suffocated bj the gases. Tho bodies so far reported were In the main stope, and it will le sev eral days before we - can get' to the rooms which branch off from the main stope." One of the most gruesome sights wit nessed today was a man's head carried out of the mine in a dinner bucket. It was found in this position, and the flesh was Almost entirely burned away from the skull. After nightfall -the entrance to the mine was converted Into a veritable chamber, of ' horrors, the awfulness of which was intensified by tho flickering lamps as the feeble rays fell upon the mangled and bleeding fragments of hu man ilesh strewn about the entrance. Many men who had been assisting In the work of rescue were forced to give up the task, and numerous persons have fainted upon seeing the ghastly array of bodies. Mine Boss Reed Is confident that more than 100 of the men In tbe mine were white. He knows the rooms hi which each man was working, and this informa tion In miy cases Is the only means of identification, so horribly are the bodies disfigured. vSenson Fraud Case eld Over."

HIGHWAYMAN HOBS SAX00K Unmasked, He Enters and Compels Three Men to Deliver Their Money. Unmasked, but armed with an auto matic revolver, a highwayman last night at 10 o'clock entered Albert Hooft's saloon. 763 Hood street, robbvI three men of a total of $52.50, warned them to be careful how they acted after his departure, and escaped. With in a short time Captain of Police Moore was "notified, and Detective Hartman and Acting Detective Vaughn took charge of the case. From the cash register and the pock ets of Proprietor Hocf t, the darinjr rob ber secured $35: from Percy F.'True $7.53 and from E. J. Finley $7. By a most fortunate circumstance. True paid out $900 in coin to a creditor during the afternoon, thereby saving that amount. The three" men wcro chatting in the saloon when the front door swung open, and the lone highwayman en tered. He was at first regarded as a thirsty Individual In quest of a drink. He -soon dispelled that Illusion, when he whipped out a revolver and announced his mission. "I hato'to do this, boys, but I've got to have money. Shell but, every one of you, and hurry.' I don't want to spend much time here. I'm not wantln to hurt any one, so don't get funny." The speech of the desperate man, with his weapon held on a level with the heads of the trio, brought a reaJy response. Each man handed out his rash, and when Hoeft gave the Tobber the contents of his trousers pockets, he was orJered to secure what money was in the cash register. When the robber had secured all the money In the house, he backed out. At the door he paused and warned his victims to wait a few minutes, until he had time to escape. The officers detailed to the case went at once to the saloon, where the three victims of the lone robber gave a com-J plete description of tho hold-up man. Owing to the fact that he wore no mabk. It is believed he will be cap tured, and If he Is. he can readily be identified. His crime is among the boldest of the year in Portland SCARED BY W0MAITS SCEEAM Highwaymen Hold Up Brooklyn Street-Car and Are Kicked Off. t NEW YORK, Feb. 21.

Democrats Attempt to Secure Prohi bition of Opium Traffic and Free Admission of Cotton. , WASHINGTON. Feb. 21. Tho House to day passed the Philippines tariff bill, practically as it came from committee and with but little dlscusrion. There was no special opposition to it; although amendments coming from the Democratic side, designed to put certain products on the free list, met with defeat. An effort to prohibit the importation of opium into the islands, except for medicinal purposes, also failed. The House tlien took up the river and harbor appropriation bill, but It was soon laid aside, and several meas ures were passed, the most Important of which was the authorization given the Secretary of War to return to the several states the Union and Confederate battle nags. The House began consideration of the bill to Tcvise the tariff laws of the Phil ippine Islands in committee of the whole. Payne (Rep. N. T.), chairman of the committee on ways and means, explained that the bill did not affect the question of goods Imported Into tbe United States from the Philippines, but that it did af fect goods exported from this country to those Istandn. The hill, he said, was for revenue purpose and originated with the Philippine Commission. 8everal Southern members directed in quiries to Payne regarding the reason for the reduction of the duty on manufac tured tobacco, which elicited the reply that it was thought that product would yield a little revenue and at the same time not Interfere with the Industry In tho Islands. The tobacco business in the Philippines, he explained, was not in so bad a way as .the sugar business. Responding to a question by Robinson (Rep. Ind.). Payrersald that the bill did not contemplate nor had any suggestion been made concerning any proposition looking to the admission of Chinese labor Into tho Islands. Concerning tho cotton schedule, Payne, answering a question by Bartlctt (Denu Ga.), furnished tho Information that the language of the former measure had been changed in such a manner as to give the United States mills a better chanco In the market tlian foreign mills through the classification of the goods. The traffic in opium in the Philippines formed the subject of discussion through an amendment by Hitchcock (Neb.) to prohibit the importation 'of the product excopt for medicinal purposes. The amendment was defeated. An amendment was agreed to providing, under the authority granted the Philip pines Commission to enact legislation re garding opium, that it shall not estab lish a license systom with a view to deriv ing revenue from the traffic. An unsuccessful attempt was mide by Cooper (Tex.) and Webb (N. C.) to place dn the free list raw cot(on and cotton waste Imported into the Philippines from the United States and Spain, the latter country being Included & as not to violate the torms of the treaty of Paris regarding discrimination. ThV amend ment was defeated. 95 to $0. Unavailing efforts subsequently were made to place agricultural products, loco motive?, etc.. on the free list and a simi lar fate was accorded a proposition by Cooper (Tex.) to tax diamonds In the rough. Cooper (Tex."k mox-cd to recommit the bill with instructions to place cotton and cotton manufactures, iron, leather, etc, on the free llsL Tho motion was lost. The bill was passed without division and practically as It came' from the com mittee. Following the presentation of the con ference report on the Army appropriation bill, tho House went into committeo of the wholo on the river and harbor bill. An agreement was reached to limit gen eral debate to two hours. Tho bill was laid aside and some minor bills were passed. Including one providing for the establishment of the Billings land district In Yellowstone and Carbon Coun ties, Montana. General applause followed the adoption of a Joint resolution authorizing tho re turn by the Secretary of War of Union and Confederate battlefiags. to the respec tive states In which the regiments which bore them were organized.
