01 ON EACH SI
Two Southern Senators Speak
on Rate Bill.
M'LAURIN WOULD GO FAR
"Would Remove Duty on Kails and
Iron to Make Construction Cheap.
Morgan Says Bill Is Vio
lation of State Illghts.
WASHINGTON. April 0. McLaurln
and Morgan addressed the Senate to
day on the railroad-rate question, the
former advocating the legislation and
the latter opposing:. The Mississippi
Senator announced his intention to
support an amendment providing: for
e court review of the decisions of the
Interstate Commerce Commission and
also stated his adherence to the Bailey
amendment, prohibiting: the temporary
suspension of the Commission's orders
by the inferior courts. Ho criticised
what he characterized as an effort to
inject politics Into the consideration
of the bill. Morgan took the position
that the proposed legislation was an
interference -with the rights of the
states to control the corporations cre
ated by themselves, and said that the
best way to check exorbitant railroad
rates was to keep the waterways In
such condition as to Insure competi
tion. McLaurln for Hate BUI.
McLaurln, who opened the debate on
the rate bill, announced himself in full
sympathy with both the leading- prop
ositions of the Bailey amendment, that
for a court reiew and for a prohibi
tion of temporary Injunctions. The
latter part of the speech was devoted
to a discussion of the political aspects
of the question. McLaurln also touched
upon the tariff, saying-:
"Let us remove by this bill one of the
curses of a prohibitive tariff." He ad
vocated the removal of the duty on
steel rails in order to reduce the cost
of railroad construction, also the re
moval of the duty on iron.
Violates State Rights.
Morgan said that he was opposed to
the bill under consideration, known as
the Hepburn-Dolllver bill, because it
created a National Commission that
would ultimately be under the control
of the railroads. He said that the bill
repealed a law that was sacred to the
English-speaking- people, the, right of
Jury trial, and vested in a Commission
the right to determine tho reasonable
ness of a rate.
"In the end." he said, "the United
States will own all the railroads," a
condition which he did not like to con
template. He spoke of the dangers of
the management of tho railroad sys
tems of the United States by BO mag
nates and predicted "a cyclone of So
cialism" with a consequent wreckage
of values as the result of their un
bridled control of this great power. He
believed the states could control the
roads single handed. 6ut, If aid from
the National Government was neces
sary, it could be granted by a few
slmplo enactments without entering
upon an effort to regulato rates.
Morgan declared that the proposed
.enactment was intended to secure con
trol of tho railroads by a. process of
constriction and ho declared that. In
asmuch as the railroads were private
property, this was a violation of the
Constitution the taking of property
without due process of law.
Thinks States Can Control.
"The people of the states that have
built the roads refuse to submit them
to the control of Congress," he said.
"The United States cannot control the
roads because it has no proprietor
ship in them. The states can control
them, because they have proprietorship
in them through their charters."
Outlining the Congressional legisla
tion ho would support, he said he would
deny to any railroad, the majority of
whose stock was controlled by another
company or held in another state than
that in which the road was owned, the
privilege of doing an Interstate busi
ness. He also said that he would not
favor a policy that would prevent a
judicial review of the findings of the
Interstate Commission.
Show Sympathy for Berry.
A bill granting to the University of
Utah a small tract of land not needed
by the Fort Douglas military reserva
tion was passed.
Berry (Ark.) appeared In the Senate
after a three months' campaign. He
-was given a warm reception by his
colleagues, who expressed their regret
over his defeat.
Hale. Allison and Teller were Tip
Tointcd conferees on the urgent defi
ciency bill.
The bill was passed creating the
Mesa Verde National Park.,
HOME RULE FOR WASHINGTON
Southerners Revive Issue Bill- Is
. Passed Against Child Labor.
WASHINGTON. April 3. Notwithstand
ing that this was District day In the
House and that body resolved itself Into
a common council for the purpose of
making laws for the District of Colum
bia, general Interest was shown in the
bills requiring nonresident pupils to pay
tuition and regulating tho employment of
child labor. Hepburn of Iowa, replying
to a long speech of Sims of Tennessee. In
which ho contended for self-government
for tho people of the District of Colum
bia, made a defense of the form of gov
ernment, but criticised its administration.
He did not think two newspaper men
and one Army officer, who constitute the
Board of Commissioners, the proper per
sonnel for such a government. While
he admired the oratorical powers of news
paper men on the board, he thought it
would be better for them to improve the
city streets than make speeches.
Incident to the discussion of a bill af
fecting the interests of insane persons
at St. Elizabeth's Asylum, in this city,
which was considered in committee of
tho whole, Stephens of Texas took oc
casion to severely criticise the present
Secretary of the Interior, the asylum be
ing under tho control of the Interior De
partment. Stephens said ho thought in
sane persons should be under the. control
of tho courts and not under control of
any executive officer.
"I think it very unwise to let the Secre
tary of the Interior have control of an
ins&no person. A person found Insane
by the court and ordered by the court
to be placed in an asj'Him, can by the
Secretary be released under this bill, and
in this way he could set aside the orders
of tho court."
The House passed the Senate hill im
posing & charge for tuition on nonresident
pupils In the public schools of the Dis
trict of Columbia: also a bill regulating
the employment of child labor In the Dis
trict. The latter bill makes It unlawful to
employ any child under 14 years of age
at any time, and no child under 16 be

CHICAGO. April 9.-SpcdD-By the
action of Western railroads, taken today.
the cheapest homeseekers excursions
ever In effect have been assured to the
Southwest, the West and the Northwest
during the entire Summer and. FalL
In'a general mass meeting of all West
ern lines It was decided to Inaugurate
weekly excursions for one fare plus St
for the round trip every Tuesday until
November 31. An effort to prev6nt such
action was ineffectual. After considerable
discussion the Northwestern lines gave
notice that. In connection with the Bu
Paul and Minneapolis roads, they would
run the excursions into tho Northwest
territory at the rate named.
This led to a notice given by John Se
bastian, of the Rock Island. 'Frisco and
.Eastern Illinois lines, to the' effect that
his roads would also run weekly home-
scckers' excursions Into all the Southwest
territory at a round-trip rate of one faro
plus 3C but with a maximum of $5 from
Chicago, and of 30 from St. Louis. El
Paso was excepted with a view to pro
tecting California traffic, and the rate
there was made $3130. To the far dis
tant points in Texas and some of the
other territory the maximum rat brings
It down to less than 75 per cent of the
one-way rate, but Mr. Sebastian stated
that he purposed earning on a vigorous
colonizing campaign for tho Southwest.
The announcement Is to the effect that
similar excursions with the same rates
and same maximums will be run Into all
the territory cast of Colorado common
points, principally Into Kansas, Nebraska
and Colorado.

All was quiet in the town Just before

they were safe from the stream of lava.
but after midnight fierce rumblings wen
heard, followed by violent earthquake
shocks, which shattered the windows and
cracked the walls.
The lava then began flowing from
Mount Ciramella. near where a fresh
fissure opened a few days ago. A wild
panic ensued, the people rushing about
In the streets, shrieking with terror. The
Ciramella crater was by that time hurl
ing forth masses of incandescent rock and
current of fire which swept down the
mountain with terrific speed, flowing In
two streams. One of them. 3CO rards
broad, was moving toward the center of
the town. The population fled In terror
to Torre Annunzlata. while the soldiers
visited the houses to see that all the in
habitants escaped. In doing so they res
cued several bedridden old people, who
had been left behind by their terrified
relatives.
"Indescribable scenes of nanic were
witnessed. The peopla seemed to havr.
lost control of themselves. The town
was hardly evacuated when a river of

Boseotrecaz seemed to be envelotwvi in
