ELKINS GIVES GOLD BRICK Amendment Regarding Coal Mines Will Xot Attain Purpose. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, May 24. Regardless of what Is ultimately done with the Elkins amend ment to the Hepburn railroad rate bill. Congress will be called upon in the near future to give further considera tion to the problem of railroad control and operation of coal mines, and within the next year or two further legis-. lation Is looked for. The Elkins amend ment adopted by the Senate provides that after May. 1908. "It shall be un lawful for any common carrier to transport from any state or territory to any other state or territory or to any foreign country any articles or commodity . manufactured, mined or produced by It under Its authority, or which It may own In whole or In part, or In which it may have any interest, direct or indirect, except such arti cles or commodities as may be neces sary or used in the conduct of its busi ness as a common carrier." This amendment is unsatisfactory to a great many Senators and Represen tatives, because it will not cure the evils ut which It is aimed and will ac complish results not desired. However, the amendment does not become opera tive for two years, and In the mean time opportunity wll be afforded for substituting more effective and more acceptable legislation that will tend, to a greater degree, to put an end to railroad control of the coal output of the country. It wis contended by several Senators that the question of railroad control of the coal output is as great a ques tion as the regulation of railroad freight rates, and yet the two are not directly connected, and should not be dealt with in a single bill. Though the Interstate commerce committee of the Senate devoted months to the regula tion of railroad rates, it did not spend a single minute studying the railroad control of the coal output of the United States. That subject was Ignored by the committee: It was not even brought forward by Chairman Elkins. When the rate bill was reported to the Senate by Mr. Tillman, the people of West Virginia set up a clamor agalnrt Senator Elkins because be had ignored the coal phase of the railroad question. West Virginia does not suf fer particularly from unjust rates, un less It be on coal, and all of Its troubles In thnt respect arise from the mact that the railroad own or control the prin cipal coal mines and absolutely control the coal market of the state. Mr. El kins, who comes up for re-election be fore the next West Virginia Legisla ture, was-quick to feel the pressure from Jiome; he squirmed under the critic-lent that was hurled at him bx Re publican as. well as Democratic news papers and politicians and to mollify the " dear people" he drew up and pre sented his coal amendment to the rate bill.. Then the clamor subsided, for Mr. Elkins promised that his amendment would be adopted- The promise was fulfilled, but the fact Is the West Vir ginia people bave been gold-bricked, for the Elkins amendment will not bring- the relief they expected: it leaves too many loopholes. But what Is equal ly bad, the amendment, unless altered, will do vast damage to the mining anJ lumbering interests of the West which have built hundreds of short roads in order to get their products to market. But In the meantime the West Virginia Legislature will meet; Mr. Elkins will "point with pride" to his amendment, which will not even be tested by that time, and it will be up to the Legisla ture to take or reject the crafty senior Senator. The Elkins amendment, as a matter of fact, was Inserted in the Hepburn bill simply to to save Elkins. Few Senators who voted for It have any con fidence In It; Mr. Elkins himself does not believe it will be effective, but then something else can be substituted be fore May, 1908, and that will probably be done. There Is nothing In the Elkins amend that will prohibit the officials of the Pennsylvania Railroad, for instance, or ganizing a separate company which shall own or control the coal fields of Pennsylvania. The two companies would thus be separate and distinct corporations, though comprising the same officers. If this reorganization should be brought about, the coal situ ation In Pennsylvania would be un changed In reality, for the officers ei the railroad would naturally make terms that would be satisfactory to (themselves) the officers of the coal company, and the old order of things would be resumed. The Pennsylvania Railroad could still show favoritism for the coal mines owned by the new cor poration, and the law woulonot be able to check It. The same would be true of West Virginia or any other state. GUNS VERSUS ARMOR. Expert Marksmen Wish Racking Ef fect Rather Than Penetration. PORTLAND. May 25. (To the Editor.) With reference to the recent communication In The Oregrcmian as to high explosive shells at eea as against armor, I have Just received a letter from an artillery officer fn the East who la an authority on the question Involved In the matter of runs and armor. He says: Both the engineer board and the ordnance board are now in favor of the 16-Inch sun. The whole argument has been reduced by our experiments at Sandy Hook with high ex plosive shells against armor, and by the naval battle between Rojestvensky and Togo in the Bea of Japan, to a question of racking rather than perforation. The racking effect in creases very rapidly with the increase of shell capacity. The ld-lnch shell holds 50 pounds more of explosive D' than the 14 Inch. Its racking effect would be enormously greater on water-line and turret armor." This, you will perceive, is a great depart ure. It carries us back to the days of the great Rodman, who ever wanted his pro jectile energy to consist of mass more than velocity. So, It le not penetration they are after, any more. It Is racking, and It Is to resist that racking that they are building larger ships. Important -matters now to know are: When the ship le built; where the work shall be done, and who gets the money for the Job, F. BURNED EXPLOSION. Workmen Were Krecting Wall to Stop Fire In Mine.

CANAL BILL UP TODAY Senate Will Consider Railroad Rates, Appointments and at Least Two Large Appropriation Bills During the Week. WASHINGTON, May 27. The Senate is counting on a busy week and the prospect Is favorable to long work days and few interruptions. After Monday there will be at least two appropriation bills ready for consideration, and the sea-level canal bill, having been made the unfinished bus iness, will be pressed as steadily as cir cumstances will permit. In addition, con ferees will be appointed on the railroad rate bill; the nomination of Mr. Barnes to be Postmaster of the City of Washing ton will receive attention, and the bill declaring a policy in the matter of the purchase of Panama Canal supplies will be considered. The Senate manifests a disposition to devote serious consideration to the canal type bill. When it is taken up. Senator Kittredge will present in a speech of con siderable length the reasons which com pelled the majority of the committee on interoceanic canals to report in favor of the sea-level plan. It Is now expected that he will speak Monday, and It is un derstood that his address will be the first of a series on the subject. On Tuesday Senator Millard, chairman of the canal committee, will present a report giving the views of the minority members In favor of a lock canal. The general plan is to press the consid eration of the appropriation bills as speed ily as possible. The postoffice and naval bills will be ready for consideration early In the week, but it Is not yet decided which will be given preference. Both will present features that will arouse de bate, and it is a foregone conclusion that especial attention will be given to .the provision In the naval bill for a new mon ster warship. ' Conference reports on the agricultural and legislative appropriation bills will probably be made before the close of the week, and it is expected that the" report of the conferees on the Indian bill, which already has been presented, will be taken up early Monday. Two matters have . been watting some what on the return of Senator Tillman from South Carolina. . These are the ap pointment of conferees on the rate bill and the further consideration of the Barnes nomination. Mr. Tillman is ex pected to be in his seat today. The rate bill conferees, of whom the South Caro lina Senator will be one, will be named then, and it is expected that the confer ence will begin as soon as Mr. Tillman can conclude his work In connection with the Barnes case. The canal supply bill will be debated at some length, and Senator Rayner will be among those to be heard on that meas ure. Work on the sundry civil appropriation bill will begin In the House this week. This bill is larger and carries mdre money than any preceding sundry civil act. The aggregate will be In the neighborhood of $90,000,000. There will be a great demand on the part of members to make speeches relating to items affecting their particu lar home districts, and Chairman Tawney estimates that it will require fully a week to consider and pass the bill. Legislation for the District of Columbia has the right of way Monday. It is tk! plan to finish the diplomatic and consular bill Tuesday, and If time remains, to con tinue the consideration of the naturaliza tion bill. This measure, it is believed, can be passed with one full day of considera tion. The controversy between the pure food and immigration bills will follow the dis position of the naturalization bill.

Bishop Brindle, who officiated at the reception of Princess Ena into the Ro man Catholic church, had a most dis tinguished career as an army chaplain in Egypt and the Soudan. No chap lain was ever more popular in the army with officers and men of all de nominations. At Tel-el-Kebir, Instead of remaining with the ambulances, he was with the Royal Irish Regiment in its charge over the intrenehments. He said he wanted to be "with his boys" where they might need him. In the Khartoum campaign, though he had a right to a horse, he would never ride, but tramped with his men. After his appointment to the see of Nottingham he was present at a reception at Car dinal Vaughan's house at Westminster. The room was crowded with officers who had served In Egypt and had come to do honor to their old comrade. The bishop wore on his. purple soutane a long, row of orders and medals, the crescent of a Turkish order hanging close to his episcopal cross of gold. Dr. Brindle laughed heartily when one of his old friends of the Soudan whis pered to him: "You did not wear such a fin kit, my lord, when I had my last chat with you. You wore khaki then."

The story of a dog's affection for its little mistress from whom it would not be separated even by death, was brought by the steamer Columbia, which arrived at New York from Glasgow. The Colum bia had a hard experience with the win try gales which swept the Atlantic dur ing her entire voyage and the tossing and pitching to which the steamer was subjected contributed largely to the pa thetic tragedy. ' Among the passengers on the steamer was Andrew MacDonald, who was bring ing his 4-year-old daughter, Mary, to America for the benefit the sea voyage might be to her health. The little girl's two collie dogs, Daisy and Bon, accompanied thn. and "until she was taken ill Mary spent all her waking hours with her pets. When the storm became more severe the child became violently seasick 'and one night she died. The dogs missed their little mistress and whined con stantly until they were taken to the cabin, where preparations were being made to bury the child's body at sea. When the body was taken on deck the dogs were permitted to follow, and dur ing the reading of the funeral service the collies tugged at the leashes which held them.
