WASHINGTON. March 27. Tillman and
McCmbcr divided tlie time of the Senate

imz Mmsrif to the railroad rato question
od?lvcly tid th South Carolina Sena
imr di5ct5tns: various questions. Tillman

Malum f his resolution relative to the use
f NmUotmI hank funds in politic., and
tow-Momalty spoke of District Attorney
Jural' recent utterances and of Judo
JlMnmlirft.v'j; decision In the beef trust
cw, declaring In the latter matter that
tfce 4cs!on against the Attorney-General
imtd moroJy reaped what he had sown in
lib caso of ex-Secretary Paul Morton.
Krakor defended Judge Humphrey and
TUtmna declared that he had not meant
tm attack tli Judpe. but the law. Mc
Cmbcr picked innumerable flaws in the
ra MM. predicting that, if enacted into
law. it would fail entirely to meet the
famadF of the public. He said, however,
kc- wotd vote for the bill if properly
aracadod.

The MM amending the law fixing fees

Sutao Courts In the Western States was
inured.
Punish Men, Not Corporations.
TMrum spoke af Judge Humphrey's re
crtK ecisH In the beef packers case,
awl declared that the tendency was to
jNHi5fc a mas of straw, the corporations,
wWihoMt paying attention to the indl-
vMvals. He declare that we were "too
twTonmliy anxious" about this artificial ;
man; ke wanted the beneficiary looked
after. No doubt, he said, the law was
t-wrectly Interpreted, but that was the
vrenbie he wanted the law reformed.'
"Now. there's Mr. Jerome." he said.
"Ho. too. has fallen from grace and Is out
acainst reform. So here we go. The
doar people are told that we arc doing
mr host for them, but that the dear old
Constitution stands in the way."
He declared that the Attorney-General
was 4ke direct progenitor of the doctrine
that the corporations could be punished,
bnt nK thoir oflicers and stockholders.
He had laid down the principle in tho
ease of Mr. Morton, and the President had
accepted the doctrine, both exclaiming,
Hoa clean and honorable, and .should be
fcamunrt; go after the dirty railroad."
The decision in the packers' case was
a natural consequence the Attorney-General
had been "hoist by his own petard."
Moroevcr. he was afraid that we were
trying te find some way of how not to do
it in the matter of the railroads.
-If the Senator would set rid of
mo of his jaundice," remarked
ipoenor. "and tut aside some of his
jaaaplctons of his fellow-Sonators, lie
wntrld get on better."
Porakcr Taunts Tillman.
TMlinan declared that ha could not
aceopl legal refinements in the place
af cemmnn sense.
Ferakcr made an inquiry as to what
l4MU(m wag before the Senate.
"I am before the Senate." responded
the South Carolinan.
-Nothing unusual in that; tho Sen
ator Is always before the Senate," re
torted Forakor.
TtUman said if the Ohio Senator de
Mred te take him off the floor he could
! se. lut he would give him warning
tnwt he would make his speech on
sMe other bill.
Hank's Campaign Donations.
Trkoc referred to Tillman's resolution
concerning National banks, saying that
the subcommittee having the measure In
charge had not been able to proceed be
cmise of the necessary absence of Bailey.
He said he had only yesterday explained
the situation to Tillman, and therefore
oK surprised at today's criticisms. The
testimony had shown that contributions
had boon made by the banks in the cam
paign of iSS3. and he wanted it understood
that he believed such a course should be
prohibited. He said, however, that there
was no information as to whether the
contributions of 1896 had been made with
the Intention to defraud, and without such
shewing there could be no prosecution.
Tillman said that the situation in the
"Walsh bank In Chicago, and also the sit
uation in connection with the County
Trcasnrer of Hamilton County. Ohio,
wore sure Indications of the need of legis
fation. Forakcr Champions Humphrey.
RrorrSng to the South Carolina Sen
ators criticisms of Judge Humphrey, For
akcr eulogized that official as "an honor
able, upright, able and capable jurist in
whom the people may well have confi
dence. He had no doubt that he had
decided the packers' case on its merits,
and. he expressed the opinion that "It
docs not come with good grace in the
Senate to crtlclse those engaged 1n the
service of the public in another branch
of the Government."
Tillman declared that he had not in
tended to cmlclie Judge Humphrey. He
also avowed his faith In the Supreme
Court, faying that he did not believe
that it would refuse to relieve the dis
tress of the people.
After further debate. Tillman again sug
gested the desirability of securing an
agreement upon a day for a vote on the
rate bill and read an outline of his plan
for voting.
Aldrich objected, to enacting a time
for & vote at this time. He said he had
no desire to cause a delay, but that there
were still so many speeches to be made
that it was evident that the Senate was
notfcyet prepared to set a voting date.
McCumbcr Finds Flaws In Bills.
McCutnber was then recognized and ad
dressed the Senate on the rate bill. He
raund to be read a resolution, offered
several weeks ago. setting for a number
of subjects that should be provided for by
amendments to the bill. These included
terminal charges of all kinds, private ear
line charges and many other subjects not
covered by the bill.
He referred to the popular demand for
the -passage ef the pending bill and cen
leateA that, when It becomes a law, the
yopla -will no-t find In It all they expect
to ftnd. He pointed out defects In the
Mil, sarin? that an effort to fix rates
would not result entirely to the disad
vantage of the corporations or to tho
advantage of tho public, since the lack of
opposition on the part of the trusts. He
traced the popular dissatisfaction to n
world-wide restlessness and not to the
narrow field of the fixing of railroad rates..
It Is a contest between the Individual and
tho corporation, lie said.
Trusla Must He Smashed.
"The trusts fix everything for us far
in advance: each of them has a definite
mortgage on the future of all of us.
The Individual sees his opportunity cut off
in all directions and there can be no
wonder that he Is restless under tho
circumstances." he remarked. "The gen.
eral animosity is directed at the railroads
most especially, because they are mor
In evidence than other corporations. He
did not believe that relief would be se
cured until a way was found of controlling
the corporations that eontrol the rail
roads. 9
"Of what avail Is it?" he asked, "to
reduce rates on beef 5 per cent if the
beef trust gets the benefit of the reduc
tion? What we want Is a law that will
break each of the trusts In a thousand
pieces and thon another that will prevent
the pieces from getting together again."
He said. In reply to a question from
T?evcridge, that he exacted to vote for
tho pending bill, but expressed the opin
ion that It nhould be amended. He said
that the rigid enforcement of the -existing
law would have presented the de
velopment of the West.
Bill Will Stop Competition.
H gave it as his opinion that the pas.
sage of the proposed law wauld abso
lutely prevent competition between rival
lines, because in effect It amounted to
pooling. It would practically have the
effect of having competing roads under
ono management. McCumber declared his
determination to vote his own sentiments
regardless of tho clamor of tho press.
Tillman offered a resolution calling upon
tho Interstate Commerce Commission for
information concerning" railroad passes
and other forms of free tickets. Under
objection, the resolution went over until
tomorrow.

BURNS HAD DECLINED AID"
Swift Denies He Was Asked for Aid,
and Describes Method of Escape.
Marshal Offered Aid, but It
Was Not Wanted.
BOSTON. Mass.. March 27. (Special.)
No trace has been found by the police of
Stephen A J D.Puter. who held up Secret
Service Agent Burns last night and
escaped. A general alarm has been sent
out to all surrounding towns, and close
watch placed upon all lines of travel out
of the clty. Mr. Burns was at the Fed
eral building today consulting Marshal
Darling -and United States District Attor
ney Garland. He -also communicated with
Chief Wllkie of the Secret Service, and
Is awaiting Instructions before making his
next move to locate Puter.
Swift Disclaims Responsibility.
Superintendent Swift or the Fenway
postal station refuses to assume any re
sponsibility for Puter's escape. He wrote
to Acting Postmaster McMillan objecting
to being a scapegoat for Puter's escape.
He says:
I wan not nskd to set anr pollcmn for
Fecm Service A Kent Burn. Had h ex
prpswd any desire to have any aid, I would
hare been glad to alct him. "When b ap
peared at the office the other dar looking
for Puter. Mr. Burn Rfked how far
away we were from the Pol!e Station. I
told htm and Mid that he could get a police
man over In two or three minutes. That
was all that was said.
How Puter Got Away.
"Tho next thing I knew was when Mr.
Burns collared his man and took him
into my private office. I have felt all
along that, as Puter had the reputation
of being a desperate character, Mr. Burns
was undertaking a! big Job. When Mr.
Burns and his man walked out on the
sidewalk. I still felt that there would be
trouble and I watched them.
"They headed for station 12, and when
they got to the corner of St. Cecil nnd
Boston streets, there was a struggle and
tho prettiest bit of gunplay I have ever
seen. Mr. Burns tripped, and when he
got his feet. Puter had him covered with
his revolver. All the time the latter was
backing awas from Mr. Burns. When
Puter had got away far enough to make
a successful dash, he skldooed and It was
1. 2, 3 with Burns.
"Of course 1 am sorry for Mr. Bums,
"but really I don't see why I should be
blamed. Had Mr. Burns asked for assist
ance he could have had a dozen police
men. If necessary,"
Burns Declined Marshal's Aid.
Acting Postmaster McMillan, who hails
from Utah, lias had a lot of experience
with Western desperadoes.
"I knew that Mr. Burns was offered as
sistance by United Suites Marshal Darl
ing, but declined it." said a Federal of
ficer. "Colonel Darling had heard that
Puter was a bad man and felt that It
waa better to be on tho safe side and
tendered Mr. Burns the assistance of two
of his men, but Mr. Burns declined It.
saying that he guessed be would be able
to handle him."

tee of the Mutual Life Company of New
York, tonight said nothing had been de
cided yet regarding the company's busi
ness In London, but he was starting for
New York tomorrow and would submit a
statement to president Peabody and
Joseph H. Choate. Nothing, he said, would
bo done contrary to Mr. Choate's advice.
Mr. Jullterd said he had no Interest In tho
matter except tho protection of policy
holders and they would save their money
by sticking. to their policies.
Stick to Their Policies.
The money Is there," he said. "British
accountants have examined the affairs of
the company and found Its assets abso
lutely correct, with a large surplus. I am
sure the company will welcome a further
examination by any actuary the British
policy-holders care to appoint."
Robert Law? on. the accountant, a lead
ing member of the policy-holders' com
mittee, said:
"What we want Is to obtain a transfer
of assets of the company in England,
sufficient to protect the Interests of the
policyholders. If the head office declines
to accede or refuses to cut away Its
British business and transfer a portion
of Its assets. It will have to conduct Its
business In Great Britain at a serious
loss, as public confidence is not likely to
be restored under the present trustees."
BRITONS WANT MORE SECURITY
Insurance Revelations Alarm Parlia
ment and Prompt Action.
LONDON, ilarch 27. The Earl' of Gra
nard. In behalf of the Board of Trade,
replying In the House of Lords today to
the Earl of Onslow, who on March 9 gave
notico of his Intention to ask tho gov
ernment whether. In view of the disclos
ures made regarding certain American
insurance companies. It Intended to com
pel foreign companies doing business In
Great Britain to keep In this country a
sufficient proportion of their securities
to cover the claims of British pollcy
boldors, sa'd the government would ap
point a select committee to consider the
Question.
In Introducing tho subject, the Earl of
Onslow reviewed tho evidence of the
Armstrong committee, from which he con
cluded that there was no guarantee that
policy-holders might not awake some
morning to find that the assets had disap
peared. In England. Lord Onslow added,
a quarter of a million people wore Inter
ested In the affairs or the American In
surance companies and tho country could
not allow that the slightest risk of loss
should exist for those who had invested
their small Fa vines In Insurance. Ho
hoped the government would Introduce
legislation such as bad been adopted else
where compelling the comnanlos to de
posit available assets to meet their lia
bilities. During the course of his reply, the Karl
of Granard said that the suggestion of
a guarantee to policy-holders on the part
of the foreign Insurance companies was
not unreasonable. The government had
carefully considered the matter and had
concluded that the best way to meet the
request was by tho appointment of a se
lect committee, which he hoped he would
be able to move very shortly.

What Is tbe Cash Value of Your
Insurance Policy Today?
Do you realize thai the cash value as contained in your policy
is your money, put aside and held in reserve by the company
after paying your share of nil death losses and your proportion
of a liberal amount for conducting the business? Mind you, this
reserve is an accumulation in excess of the current cost of your
insurance; for this reason the company will return a portion of
same if you surrender your policy. But what becomes of this
reserve if you die? We issue ono form of policy guaranteeing
absolute protection for life at a very low cost, allowing you to
Iceep the reserve in your pocket. On our limited payment and
endowment policies, in event of death, wo return the reserve in
addition to the insurance. Let our agents show you.
