RAILROAD RATES
1 Mi ISSUE
Only Question President Will
Submit to Extra Session
of Congress.
CANNON IS URGING DELAY
Speaker 'Anxious to .Win Fall Elec
tIbns"Flrsti Artion- on Tariff Is
Held Off to Avoid JugRlery
' by Railroad Forces.
WASHI.VGTOX. May 22. Prei-Ident
BooeeveJt today reiterated his Inten
tion to call Congress In extra, session
October 16 next to consider railroad
rate regulation legislation.
WASHINGTON. May 2 (Special.)
Congress, when called in special session
this Fall, -will be asked to deal with the
railroad rate question and not -svith the
tariff. While the President realizes thor
oughly the importance of both topics, he
sees in the rate question the paramount
issue, and for fear of jugglery will give
to Congress only one question at a time
to deal with. When In the far West, he
lound the whole Mississippi Valley up In
arms on the rate question. He has, there
fore, for the time being, dismissed the
tAriff question from his mind as part of
the business -of the special session.
There Is a prospect of delay in the time
for calling the special session. The date
was originally set by the President as
October 1G. but Speaker Cannon and oth
ers are urging a postponement until after
the November elections. In order that the
Republicans may put in their best licks
In Ohio, Massachusetts, Virginia and New
York -City. The President has not yet
changed his mind on the date, but will
consider the question carefully. Mr.
Cartoon has suggested November 13 as a
gf oddate for the special session, but this
would postpone, the session nearly a
month and would leave only three weeks
before the beginning of the regular ses
sion. In that time not much progress
could be made on. the railroad-rate ques
tion. The opponents ot rate legislation are
eager for delay and It is not "improbable
that further pressure may be brought to
bear on the President.
Another question which may come up
at the special session Is the relations of
the United States and Venezuela. The
Administration has shown an inclination
to punish Venezuela for breaking a con
tract, but .the decision of the Court of
Cassation practically conl1song the
property of the New York & Bermudez
Asphalt Company will hardly be made a
casus; belli unless Congress so decides.
President Castro will be given every op
portunity to decide upon arbitration, as
the best solution of the trouble. If he
persists In ignoring It, Congress will be
informed of the situation and given the
Initiative.
HOPES TO REDUCE DEFICIT
Shaw Says Revenue Will Increase
Xcxt Month.
ST. LOUIS. May 22.-Secrctary of the
Treasury Shaw arrived today on his way
to Oklahoma City, where he is to address
the Y. M. C A. tomorrow. Asked about
the ?33,CX,O0O deficit in the United States
Treasury, Secretary Shaw said:
"We are not worried about that deficit.
Just as has always been the case, the
deficit will be reduced in June, when busi
ness picks up. It Is hard to determine
Just what causes are responsible for thol
deficiency. Our imports of dutiable goods
have been less and on non-dutiable goods
have been greater; that we know."
ESCAPES BEING LEFT FA COLD
Secretary or Canal Commission Ap
pointed Consul to Bordeaux.
WASHINGTON. Mav 22. Dominie T
Murphy, of the District of Columbia, has
been appointed Consul to Bordeaux,
France to succeed A. W. Tourgee, de
ceased. Mr. Murphy, who "has held the secretary
ship of the Isthmiap Canal Commission,
was about to sail for Panama tomorrow.
Secretary Taft stated that the vacancy
in the latter position will not be filled,
the reorganization of the commisslbn and
its executive forces having made the office
unnecessary.
NOT YET TIME FOR PEACE
Japanese Statesmen Expect No Inter
vention, and Discuss Terms.
TOKIO, Thursday, April 27. Count Oku
ma, former Premier and Minister of For
eign Affairs, in an interview on the ques
tion of intervention,- eaid that a reat
change in the lines of diplomacy of differ
ent powers being the natural outcome of
the present war, it was difficult to make
a prophecy. Increasing closer relations
between England and France was, already
one of the very significant phenomena re
sulting from the war. The Count declared
that Germany could have no other feeling
than one ot satisfaction at finding her
northern rival becoming gradually weak
ened by the war, and would recognize
the foollshncsw ot antagonizing Japan if
Germany would maintain and develop her
Interests In the Far East.
ORuma saw no occasion for intervention
unless a European conference could be
formed, and he could not understand who
"would take the initiative, so long as Ger
many did not suffer by the war. Ger
many, he asserted, was reaping benefit
of various klaete. and would follow the
policy of "set the best and as much as
possible."
Count Kato, former Minister of Foreign
Affairs and former Minister to Great
Britain, discussing- the eame question,
said:
"I do sot think there will arise any occa
sion for Intervention. I doubt if Rurala
has a fixed purpose and aim either to fight
sr to conclude peace. It seems to me that
the ultimate result Is. left to whatever the
future may bring to Russia. There seems
to be no prearranged plan. Should Rus
sia be determine to hold Vladlvestok. it
would be to her advantage to conclude
peace, asd. her policy Ss evoId of any
itmute plan, so there caa ee so occasion
for a .third .power toatteaitr'iaterrihUoa
In the near future.
"Even the loss of Vladivostok might
not prompt Russia to seek peace. -She
could go on retreating Indefinitely,
hoping - to exhaust us thereby. We
might take Harbin and go further
rjorth, but Russia could continue her
policy .of retreat, thereby giving 'BO-.oc-casion
for a. third party to intervene.
Should Russia ask., tor peace we shall
insist on an unconditional armistice,
and wheu the negotiations arc opened
we shall requiro Russia to return Man
,cnuria to China, recognize our sover
eignity over Corea, cede Sakhalin to
us, remove permanently the fortifica
tions of Vladivostok ana pay an In
demnity ot at least two bjllion yen
(one billion dollars).
"Such "liberal terms will afford no oc
casion for intervention-w The scene of
hostilities In Manchuria being without
any special Interest to the powers, none
of them would be prompted to take-action
to stop the war. On the contrary,
the war is affording a lucrative trade to
some of them in supplying materials
for war. Looked at from a diplomatic
standpoint. Germany, seeing her East
ern danger lessened by the war and
Russia gradually weakened, will enter
tain hope of further reduction in toe
strength of her formidable neighbor.
England will feel satisfaction over the
blows dealt by her ally to her traditional
foe.
, The United States, mtfen as she
sympathizes with us. will not welcome
an excessive development of Japan's
power, le?t it should cause future
trouble, and would not view with dis
favor the gradual weakening of both
combatants. France alone must be
sincerely desirous ot seeing the war
terminate, but single-handed she can
do nothing' to cause any change. Both
the present and the future to my mind
and view afford -no sign of the possi
bility of intervention, and I am pre
pared to say that the time has not yet
come to talk of peace. In -fact, there
never will be an occasion for Interven
tion and the war will last long."

CONNECT ON SNAKE
St. Paul Extension Will Use
Oregon Short Line.
ALL LINES ARE FRIENDLY
Xew Road Will Open Xew Territory
Without-Jnvadins That of Either
Hill ot" JIarriman Termi
nus at Bcllingham.
NEW YORK,. May 22'. (Special.)
The Wall Street Journal tomorrow will
say:
The plan of the St. Paul management
to reach the Pacific Ocean is fairly
definite. The plan contemplates an ex
tension of the main line of the St, Paul
across Wyoming- to a connection In the
Snake River Valley with the main line
under control of the Oregon Short
Line. The objective point i.s Belling
ham Ray. Wash.
The plan uoes not appear to contem
plate nny great amount of new build
ing. The St. Paul will probably push
Us own lines west from Chamberlain
via the Black Hills to a connection with
the Oregon line In the -southeastern
corner of Idaho. It is understood that
right of -way will be granted on re
quest, either by the Union Pacific lines
or by the Great Northern and North
ern Pacific lines in Washington.
The pran carries no threat to either
toe Union Pacific or the Hill systems.
The new line of the St. Paul will open
entirely new territory and will not be
an invasion of either Hill or Harrlman
country- Undoubtedly the building of
the Great Northern was the cause of the
great boom in the Northwest, which
has created the new Northern Pacific
If the St. Paul opens new territory In
the West. It will undoubtedly have a
similar effect. As the Northwest grows,
so will not only the newline but also
the Great Northern and "the Northern
Pacific proper.
The SL Paul wants to carry a share
of the fish and fruit, eggs and poultry
and vegetables of the Columbia and
Puget Sound country to Chicago; it
wants a share of the immense shingle
and lumber business: It wants a share
of the Pacific trade, and therefore It Is
going to Puget Sound. But there is
room enough for the SL Paul and for
any other railroad seeking to share in
the good fortune of the wonderful
State yf Washington.
IS ROJESTVENSKY DEAD?
(Continued From Page 1.)
the merest conjecture, and If the experts
are right, and they all seem to agree on
the subject, the first definite news that
can be expected will come in the shape of
an official dispatch from Tokio telling ot
a battle, or from SL Petersburg tolling,
of the safe arrival of the Russian fleet at
its Pacific base.
QUESTION AS TO CONTRABAND
Russia Holds Lumber Conditionally,
Cotton Absolutely So. '
ST. PETERSBURG. May 22. Probably a
fortnight will elapse before the written
argument on which the Superior Ad
miralty Court based Its conclusions on the
application of the captured British steam
er Calchas, overruling Admiral Jessen's
protest against the decision of the Vladi
vostok court, ordering her release, will be
available, and In order to avoid a misun
derstanding the purport of the decision
should be stated. It Is plain that the pro
curator's speech that the Government con
ceded that timber Is on the list of condi
tional contraband, arguing in this particu
lar case that the length of the beams
showed they were intended for railroad
bridge construction. 'To "this extent,
therefore, the list of conditional contra
band articles has been broadened.
Just the' contrary is the case in the mat
ter of cotton, the procurator insisting
against the contention of the authorities
at Berlin and of Mr. Shcftel. acting as
counsel for the Americanand British own
ers of the steamer's cargo, that cotton
belonged to the list of absolute contra
band, as it is usable in making guncotton.
The impression In diplomatic circles is
that. If the court's written decision bears
out the -arguments of the procurator, the
United States and Great Britain will re
new their representation on the subject of
cotton.
The contraband question has again be
come important in view of the appear
ance of Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet In
the Far Eastern seas.

GREAT Ml IAS CAVED IN

DUCED TO RULNS.
Senator Clark Loses One of Main
Sources of His Vast Wealth,
and Jerome Is Doomed.
PRESCOTT, Ariz., May 22. Millions of
tons of rockjind earth caved In at noon
today in Senator Clark United Verde
copper mine, at Jerome, Ariz., the ground
dropping from the surface to the 700-foot
level. Cracking timbers gave the alarm,
and SCO miners fled for their lives ar.d
escaped uninjured.
For several days the ground has been
settling and timbers creaking. Today with
a mighty crash the earth caved, carrying
with it the new shaft, levels, drifts and
slopes. From fissures on the surface come
clouds of sulphur smoke from that part
of the mine which has been on fire for
several years.
The extent of the damage cannot as yet
be ascertained, but If it is as bad as
feared the great property will be closed
am the existence of Jerome will be
doomed. The hoisting works, which are
over the mine, have settled, and the ma
chinery cannot be worked. The smelting
plant has also been shut and all activity
ceased.
The officials of the company take an
optimistic view of the situation, and say
the cjamage is not Irreparable, and the
smelter will be working again within a
month.

LILIES OF HEALTH 1ND BEAUTY.
In a recent interview with Mrs. Lily
Lansrtry, she very wisely said :
"The fact that I beKeve in the superior
force of mind over matter does not blind
ne to the truth that the foundation of every
succesafal life is good health; that the key
stone to physical beauty is perfect physical
healthy
"A sick woman cannot be a beautiful
woman, nor can she be anything bat what
we English call a poor-spirited woman.
"To a great extent a woman's beauty is
measured by her vitality by her health.
nWork, Sunshine, Exercise, Water and
Soap. Plain, Nourishing- Food, Lots of
Fresh Air, and a Happy, Contented Spirit
there, as you say, honest and true.' is
my working rule for youth, youthful spirits
and youthful looks."
One great secret of youth and beauty for
the younj woman or the mother is the
proper understanding of her womanly sys
tem and well-bcinj. Every woman, young
or old, should know kerstlfzni. her phvs
icsl make-up. A good way to arrive at this
knowledge is to get a good doctor book,
such for instance as "The People's Common
Sense Medical Adviser," by R. V. Pierce,
-. p., which can readily be procured by
sending twenty -one cents in one -cent
stamps for paper-bound volume, or thirty
one cents for cloth-bound copy, and ad
dressing Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
"Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription caa always

ftils," writes Mrs. Dr. Niches, of 43" Langley
Ares-e, Chicago, His. "It is a cerUin cure for
female trembles, diseases in their worst forms.

Dr. Pierce offers $ 500 reward for any case
of Leacorrhea, Female Weakness, Prolap
sus, or Falling of Womb which he cannot
care. All he asks is a fair and reasonable
trial of his means of cure. No substitute
for "Favorite Prescription" offers so much.

I
OWBNSBORO, Ky... May 22. Bob
Shaw, a negro, supposedly insane, has
killed one man and wounded seven In
the past 24 hours, near Waitman. The
body of the dead man lies in front of
Shaw's house, and the negro continues
to .defy the officers who are seeking to
arrest him. The dead:
WILLIAM C. BROWX. a Deputy Sheriff.
The wounded: Deputy Marshal John
J. Jackson. Dr. C. H. PHtt, Town Mar
shal Watson. James Ford, John Robin
son. Frank Howard, Walton Polly.
Yesterday afternoon Shaw was ter
rorizing the community -around Wait
man and a petition was sent here for
help. A posse was immcdately formed,
but as soon as It approached the mad
man's house ho opened fire. Marshal
Watson was shot in the face and Depu
ty Marshal Jackson In the back- Others
wounded were Dr. G. II. PHtt, on the
hand; a boy named Howard and a boy
named Pelly. in the legs.
This morning- a posse, headed by
Sheriff Kelly, went from Lewlston to
Waitman and found Shaw sitting on
his front porch. Shaw quickly barri
caded himself in his house. The posse
tried to storm the house, but the negro
opened fire, wounding- James Ford and
John Robinson. He apparently only
shot small shot, which saved the lives
of those he aimed at Shaw was shot
at twice. He had two revolvers, but
announced that he would save them
for work at close range.
A great crowd gathered around the
house, keeping a safe distance away.
This afternoon Will Brown, a Deputy
Sheriff of Hancock County, volunteered
to go to the house and take Shaw.
When he was within 13 feet of Shaw
the crazy man fired, blowing Brown's
head completely off.
At 6 o'clock tonight a mob of men and
boys surrounded Shaw's house and set it
on fire. Shaw remained in the burning
house as long as he could stand the heat,
and finally leaped out and tried to escape.
Nearly ICO shots were fired, and Shaw's
body was riddled with bullets.
