REBUKE FOR DUE
Council Resents His Charges
of Corruption.
MUST PROVE OR RETRACT
Denver Speech Sprung on Hhn by
Alderman, and lie Confesses Cor
rection Motion Demanding
Retraction and 'Apology.
CHICAGO, Jan. JG. (Spccjai.)-In the
most dramatic meeting of the City Coun
cil that has been held in many years.
Mayor Dunne came into conflict with the
logiBlaivc body tonight in sucli a manner
tfiat. if the clash be carried to its linal
alternative, either the Mayor will 'be im
peached for impugning the integrity of
Aldermen or the majority of the City
Councill will bo shown tip as corruption
ists in their dealings with the traction
companies.
In a speech at Denver Friday night the
Mayor declared that the cause of mu
nicipal ownership is suffering in Chicago,
because there are malign influences at
work to thwart the carrying out of tho
wIM of the people. These Influences, ho
charged, were being brought to bear by
the traction companies on the City
Council. When the Aldermen read the
accounts of the Denver speech in the
local newspapers, they became aflame
with anger. The part of the speech to
which special exception was taken Is
this:
3rayor's Offensive Speech.
The companies which jmoeured the paesace
of the infamous Allen and Humphrey WMs
hi the State Legislature by wholesale bribery
and corruption are still exerting their malign
influences acalnst the carrying out of the
will of the people. By influences known only
to themselves they have succeeded in cetUnc
. almost two-thirtle of the City Council to
vte In contfTOitt and defiance of the public
demand. It Is to be wondered at that, -after
throe tremendous votes in the City of, Chi
cago, we tlnd these powerful and mallcn in
ffiencrt still exerting tbemselvoK In every pos
MWo way to prevent the realization of the
Iieepic's demands.
Called to Account.
Scarcely hud the Council got itself into
working order tonight than Alderman
Foreman, one of the leaders of the oppo
sition to the Mayor's policy, produced a
copy of a local paper and had it pre
sented to the Mayor.
"I hand you a copy of a paper contain
ing an account of a speech said to have
Iwoen made by you in Denver, Mr. Mayor,
and I should like to know if you are cor
rectly quoted In that speech?"
Plainly the Mayor was not prepared for
the incident. His face blanched and the
paper shook In his extended hands.
"I have read this account of my
speech," said the Mayor, recovering his
comiwsure. "and I wish to say that in
the main I have been correctly quoted."
"Are you prepared to stand by the
statements there made?" asked MrFore
man. "I have not boon misrepresented In the
public print and I have no retraction to
make."
"That's all I wish to know," cried Mr.
Foreman.
Demand for Protection.
Alderman Kennett. another anti-Dunne
loader on the floor, then offered a resolu
tion to the effect that until the Mayor
should retract the statements attributed
to him and apologize to th Council, he
be no longer allowed to preside over that
body. The resolution was referred to
the judiciary' committee by -a vote of 43
.to m.
lSxeiting times are looked for at future
meetings of the Council. As the situation
logically stands now, thci Mayor must
come -forward with proof of specific brib
ery and corruption or suffer the fate of
presiding officers who make such charges
unofficially.
Mayor Dunne, after the meeting, said:
"I said what I believed In my Denver
speeoh. It was written carefully and with
groat deliberation and thought. I will
stand by what I said."
EDUCATED AGAINST Gil AFT.
Steffens Says People Arc Learning
1 They Own Streets.
NEW YORK. Jan. IS. Lincoln Stcf
fons, author of "The Shame of Cities,"
addressed an "anti-graft" meeting un
der the Auspices of the Y. M. C. A.
yesterday. Mr Steffens told of fights
made in various American cities
against political corruption. Of Chicago
he said:
"Thoy have not got good government
in Chicago yet; not by a good deal; but
they have got democratic government
representative government at least.
Tltey have a real sense that streets be
long to the city and not to the rail
roads. They found, too, that tho
source of corruption was privilege, and
so thny determined to take away that
privilege. And that is the plan which
must be followed elsewhere."
He said It had been found necessary
In most cases to extend the fight to
state capitals, for the real center of
crookedness was there.
"Tom Johnson." he said, "does not
think he will live long- enough to ac
complish the reforms he has planned,
but he has already done something
more important he has educated the
people of Cleveland in good citizen
ship." Mr. Steffens said he regarded II. II.
Rogers as vicjim of our existing
system of political corruption, as clear
ly a victim as some ward heeler. Of
Goorge E. Cole, a. Chicago reformer, he
said:
"Like Mayor Pagan, of Jorsey City.
Mr. Cole Is pious. You might not sus
pout it, for he swears a great deal, but
he is religious. Once he said: 'The
great thing to do is to keep on fight
ing: I never stop until I know I am
licked.'
"'And what then? he was asked
"'Well, whon I know I am licked,'
ho said, 'then I pray.' "
Senator La Follette, of Wisconsin,
will address a similar meeting- at an
early date.
Warner Declares Candidacy a Fake.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 15. Senator

ously himself, nor did he believe any
one else did.
DEMOCRATIC RATE BILL
Allows Commission to Fix-Rate Giv
ing Road Fair Profit.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 15. The Demo
cratic members of the House committee
on interstate -and foreign commerce have
prepared a railroad rate bill which will
be introduced tomorrow. The bill is a
comprehensive measure, dealing with all
of the questions Involved In the subject.
lts"csso'ntlal-differencc from what Is un
derstood to be the majority measure, the
bill of. Hepburn of Iowa, is that Instead of
authorizing the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to fix a "maximum rate." In ac
cordance with the specific recommenda
tion of President Roosevelt, the rate to
be fixed shall be a reasonable one. It
forbids the commission increasing any
rate which has been fixed and published
as such by any railroad.
It authorizes the rate fixed by the com
mission to be reviewed by the courts only
when it Is shown that such rate does not
enable the carrier to realize a fair profit
on the capital actually invested in the
road, or where the commission has ex
ceeded its power in fixing the rate, making
it confiscatory. The rate, when 'fixed by
the commission. Is to become operative
within 30 days, and Is not to bo set aside
except by order of the court of final re
sort. The bill makes no changes cither in sal
ary or in the number of the commission
as now constituted.
Railroads Get Even With Texas.
CHICAGO, Jan. 15. A dispa'tch to the
Record-Herald from Dallas, Tex., says:
John G. Hunter, secretary of the Dallas
Commercial Club, announced yesterday
that the proposed visit of Texas commer
cial clubs to Northern and Eastern cities
had been -abandoned because of the high
rates demanded by Has tern railroads to
carry the party, and he declared the rail
ways had adopted this means as a club
against advocates of railway rate legisla
tion. He asserted the roads did not wish
to have the Texas men visit Washington
at this time, as was proposed, because
many of them were pronounced advocates
of rate legislation.

SETTLE CRITCIIFIELD CLAIM
Venezuela Expected to Adjust Anicr
cnit Asphalt Concession.
NEW YORK. Jan. IS. The latest Infor
mation from Caracas regarding the
Critchtield claim against Venezuela,
which dispatches from Washington shv
will be pressed by the State Department,
is that it will be satisfactorily adjusted
between the government of Venezuela and
the United States, and the Venezuelan
Company which now operates the Critch-field-
ooneesslon, says the Tribune. The
claim grows out of tho shutting down by
the government of the asphalt property
"El Inelarte." The claim is for $1,509,009.
The terms of the Critchfield concession
Included a clause that the asphalt from
El Inelarte was to lx. free from Much a
tax as was imposed by President Castro.
The property was shut down about tho
time that the blgh federal court can
celled the concession of the New York &
Bermudez Company at Guanoco. The
government contended that aside from the
payment of taxes the Critchfield conces
sion was never approved by the Congress
according to the laws of Venezuela.
The trouble, however. Is said to have
been settled by Ambrose Howard Carner.

GiE OF SQUEEZE
Southern Pacific Road Blocks
Freight at Panama.
WANTS ALL THE BUSINESS
Stevens Accuses Railroad of Neglect
ing Traffic by Pacific Mail and
Rouse Seeks Method of
Retaliation.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 15. Charges by
Secretary Taft and Chief Engineer
Stevens of the Isthmian Canal Com
mission that the Southern Pacific Rail
way Is responsible for the freight con
gestion on the Isthmus of Panama
formed the most interesting- develop
ment of a four hours' hearing- today
on canal affairs before the deficiency
sub-committee of the- House commit
tee on appropriations.
The Southern Pacific Railway Com
pany controls the Pacific Mall Steam
ship Company, according- to the state
ments of the Secretary of War and Mr.
Stevens, who -says that since the ab
rogation of the freight agreement be
tween the Panama railroad and the
steamship, company the latter has been
dilatory in calling for San Francisco
freight on the west side' of the Isth
mus. It Is charged that steamers fre
quently refuse to stop to take on
freight and even leave port with only
a partial cargo, while great quantities
of freight lie on the wharves.
Forces Freight Its Way.
It was alleged that the apparent mo
tive for this course on the part of the
steamship company was to hinder ma
terials Intended for the canal from be
ing delivered at Colon by the steam
ships operated by the Government
from New York, so that shipments
would be necessary over the lines of
the Pacific Mall from San Francisco:
that the blockade had had this effect
was asserted by Mr. Stevens, who said
that several cargoes had been shipped
via San Francisco and over the Pacific
Mall line for this very reason. Other
shipments will go this way. unless an
end can be made to the blockade.
As there are no wharves on the west
side of the Isthmus, it is impossible
for the railroad company to store the
congested freight on that side of the
isthmus until It can be shipped to San
Francisco. Consequently the storage
and docking- facilities on the east side
of the isthmus arc said to be con
stantly overtaxed and the canal work
seriously hindered.
Methods of Retaliation.
It was suggested by several mem
bers of the appropriations committee
that the Pacific Mall Steamship Com
pany might be induced to act more
promptly If the United States were to
threaten to cut off mall contracts with
the company, and other members urged
that the coastwise laws are inade
quate to punish any act on the part of
the company.
Secretary Taft waasummoncd before
the subcommittee to make explana
tions concerning- estimates for canal
expenses included in the additional ap
propriations of $5,503,000 sought in
Order to continue the canal until the
en'd of the proscnt fiscal year on
June SO.
Canal Organization Good.
Representative Tawney of the appro
priations committee, and other mem
bers of the deficiency sub-committee,
said after the hearing that they were
convinced the estimates of the Secre
tary of War and his assistants have
been made with great care. Mr. Taw
ney also said that the review of the
canal "organization shows that It Is
much more perfect than many other
branches of the government and l
more economically administered.
There is little disposition among the
members of the subcommittee to shave
the estimates, which the committee
regarded as very moderate.
The canal appropriation Is to be car
ried in the urgent deficiency bill, now
in preparation by the committee, and
will .doubtless be reported to the House
the latter part of the week.
WILL RECOMMEND LOCK CANAL
President Prepares Mcsagc Based
on Engineer's Report.
WASH INGTON, Jan. 15. President
Roosevelt is preparing to send to Con
gress a message which will favor a lock
canal. He held conferences today with

redgc, Knox. Drydon, Hopkins and An
keny. The committee has In its possession an
advance copy of the report furnished by
the President for use in examining Chief
.Engineer Stevens when he appears before
the committee tomorrow at tho opening
of the investigation made by the Senate.
This report contains the views of the
Consulting Board as expressed before the
foreign members left this country, to
gether with the amendments that havo
been made since, to which General Davis
Is now getting their Indorsements.
The message of the President will fa
vor the construction of a lock canal on
the ground that It is in the Interest of
the present generation and not for pos
terity and that It can be built at loss
cost of time and money. It Is said that
tho President Incidentally asked tho Re
publican members of the committee to
support the nomination of Joseph B.
Bishop to bo a member of the Canal
Commission and to use every effort to
prevent indiscriminate reductions in the
salaries of canal officials, which, he fears,
may be the result of the investigation.
