Kindel Again on AVarpath.
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 22. Leslie
M. Shaw, Secretary of the Treasury,
and William J. Bryan secured the lion's
share of attention here today among a
long list of speakers at the three ses
iiirns of the Trans-Mississippi Commer
cial Congress. All spoke on subjects re
lating more or less directly to the in
creasing of the commercial buslness'of
the country
Mr. Bryan was appointed to bead a
committee of cx-pieslricnts of the Con
gress to escort Mr. Shaw to the plat
form and, when these two distinguished
public men led the way to the rostrum,
there was great applause. Mr. Shaw,
who spoke particularly for a wider for
eign market for American goods, made
this declaration:
If this country ever develops interna
tional merchants, it will accomplish It hy
irantlnjy them encouragement, not alone, hy
dredKhiK harbors and deepening channels,
hut hy Insuring them a merchant marine in
TVhfch to carry, under the most favorable
terms, the products of our farms, our mines,
our forcKts and our factories.
Mr. Shaw continued:
Secretary Root has Rone a step further
Irian I propose to ko In favor of a mer
chant marine. Ho commits himself to ttift
nnlp subsidy bill. I do not say that I sin
in favor of a ship subsidy, but I will say
that. I am In favor of anything that will
secure a merchant marine for tho United
States.
Bryan Moves for Arbitration.
Mr. Bryan, whose subject principally
cniuTrnpfi the commercial interests of
the Mississippi Valley region, was the
solo speaker nt the evening session.
The crowd lhat erected Mr. Bryan was
the largest of the Congress, numbering
bom persons. ia was introduced by David
It. Francis, president of the Congress,
and was given an unusual ovation. Mr.
Bryan said he felt very friendly toward
the Commercial Congress because it was
tho only body of which he was ever
president. He made a strong plea in the
opening of his speech to have the next
annual Congress held in his home town,
Lincoln. Neb.
Mr. Bryan presented the following reso
lution, which, he asked, should be con
sidered by the resolutions committee at
tomorrow's session:
Resolved. That this congress heartily in
dorses trie resolution unanimously adopted
by the Interparliamentary Vnlon at its Lon
don session last July 1n favor of the sub
mission of all international questions to
an Impartial court or commission for inves
tigation before any declaration of war or
commencement of hostilities. . . ...
He pleaded earnestly for tho adoption
of the resolution, hoping, he said, the
Congress would thus place itself on rec
ord as favoring peace.
Disagrees Willi Hoot and Sliaw.
Mr. Bryan congratulated the Commer
cial Congress on having as its guests two
members of the Presidents Cabinet
Messrs. Root and Shaw "the two fore
most members of tho President's official
family," he said.
Speaking of the South American trade
expansion possibilities as set forth by
Mr. Root, he said ho did not agree with
Mr. Root as to the methods suggested,
lie did not. lie said, believe in subsidies.
Mr. Bryan said he had heard Mr. Shaw
speak at the afternoon session also on
the question of trade expansion. He said
that Mr. Shaw had presented the situa
tion in a pleasing manner, but took oc
casion to assert that many questions
which are not logical must be presented
in a pleasing manner to cover up their
lack of logic.
Resolution Against Trusts.
Mr. Bryan then read a second resolu
tion affecting trusts, which also, he said,
he wished might be adopted by the Con
gress at its business session tomorrow.
This resolution, which Mr. Bryan said
covered In a general way his hopes re
garding trust legislation, follows:
Hesolved, That tills congress is unalter
ably opposed to private monopolies and, -be-llevlliK
them indefensible and intolerable,
favors the enforcement of existing laws and
tho enactment of such new laws as may
be necessary to protect industry from the
menaces of trusts'.
Mr. Bryan said he was glad that at
least all people finally had come to be
opposed to the giving and receiving of re
bates. jie spoke of t lie recent conviction
of the sugar trust for receiving rebates
and attacked the Standard "Oil Company,
which, ho declared, had built up much of
Its business by operating in rebates. But
legislation was needed, he said, not only
to prevent railroads front' granting re
bates, but other great concerns from wat
ering their stock.
Some of 'the subjects upon which ad
dresses and discussions were made at
the morning and afternoon sessions
were river and levee betterment, lower
freight rates, especially in tho West;
tho necessity of a National Department
of Mines and Mining, tho. needs of tho
livestock interests of the Southwest,
the necessity of increased facilities at
the Pacific Coast shipyards, irrigation,
public drainage as it relates to the re
clamation service and our waning for
est resources.
John W. Nohie of St. Louis, ex-Secretary
of the Interior, spoke in support
of a resolution, which hud been intro
duced by Richard C. Kerens of that
City, in favor of an inter-continental
.railway to bring about closer trade re
lations between North and South Amer
ica. A resolution favoring the con
struction of such a road hud been in
troduced. Kindel Wants Clements' Sealp.
George J. Kindel of Denver enlivened
tlte morning session by again attack
ing E. H. Harriman, and introducing a
resolution, which was referred, calling
for the resignation from membership
on the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion of Judson C. Clements. Other
speakers were V. C. Alderson. president
of the Colorado School of Mines: Ike
T. Pryor. president of the Southwest
'attleraisers Association; K. II. Newell,
Edward Mead and W. II. llerron, gov
ernmental department experts, ami Rep
resentatives John N. Stevens of Texas,
Kdgar C. Ellis of Missouri and Isham
Randolph, consulting engineer of the
Chicago drainage canal.
Mr. Stevens of Texas discussed the sub
ject of "Irrigation." giving statistics to
show how Irrigation had developed the
arid lands of Texas and the West.
Ship Subsidy Indorsed.
At a session of the resolutions commit
tee today a proposition to indorso Mr.
-Root's suggestion for a ship subsidy, par
ticularly for mall . steamers to South
America, was adopted. There is a strong
sentiment In the Congress favoring Mr.
Root's suggestion.
John Barrett, United States Minister
to Columbia and a delegate from Oregon,
submitted a resolution asking Congress
to make liberal appropriations for
the improvement of the Columbia river.
At tho - opening of - tho Congress this
morning Arthur F. Francls.'the secretary,
read a paper by George W. Dickie, who
was unable to be present, on "Naval Con
struction on tho Pacific Coast."-
Paul Thieman. editorial writer of the
Denver Post, made a rather sensational
speech on "Excessive Political Imagina
tion." Mr. Thieman told of the vast un
cultivated areas in Colorado, and asked
why so many American farmers were
going to Canada while such vast areas
In California remained uncultivated. He
attributed it to excessive dwelling on
Colorado's political troubles and advocat
ed a survey of the State's water resources
as of more benefit than all the politics.
Stirred Up by Kindel..
Alderson spoke in favor of a National
Department of Mines and Minjng. '
Mr. Kindel, who on Tuesday replied In a
heated manner to Mr. Harriman's state
ments to the Congress regarding railroad
matters, again took occasion to deny the
truth of Mr. Harriman's claim that all
freight rates go down rather than up,
and to criticize, caustically his statement
that the Government should give ' the
railroads more power.
Then Mr. Kindel created a' stir by intro
ducing a resolution that because of cer
tain rulings, which Kindel .declared to be
discriminative, "the Hon. Judson C. Cle.
ments, of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, be requested to resign from the
Commission on account of incompetency.
i
My t
t 9 k' i i
f I'Vllpr Tardo, linlster of Peru,
J Speaker at the Trans-Missis- t
nippl Congress.
and in the event of his refusal, that the
President of the United States order an
investigation, and on satisfactory proof
of charges he demand his resignation."
The resolution was referred to commit
tee without debate. -Mr. Klndel's resolu
tion further reads:
"Resolved, That tho Interstate Com
meite Commission be requested to grant
a 'hearing in cases 722 and 723, which
prayer has already been made In writing
30 days ago, but so far denied to the com
plainant." Another resolution Introduced by Mr.
Kindel and referred, says:
. VResolved, By this Trans-Mississippi
Congress, that our Interstate Commerce
Commission adopt as soon as possible
one universal classification of freight for
all interstate railroads, and further, to
make it unlawful to charge a higher rate
per ton per mile for the longer than for
the shorter haul on all intermediate
points, which, however, should not pre
clude the higher charge for the longer
haul than the shorter in the aggregate."
Demands of Livestock Men.-
Mr. Pryor said the manufacturers of
the country were organized and were thus
able to force through Congress any pro
tection measures they desired. The live
stock men had no protection and there
fore a decline in value of livestock had
accompanied the great Improvement in
breeding. He then said:
"The livestock owners of this country,
through their organization, will demand
of the next Congress the passage of such
measures and treaties as will enable them
to place their product in every European
market, not only on the hoof, but for their
manufactured product as well they eee'i
an outlet for both.
"With this accomplished, tho packers
will be compelled to pay for such stock
suitable for export just what the owner
would realize in the foreign markets,
freight, shrinkage and reasonable profit
considered."
A resolution introduced by John G.
Brady, ex-Governor of Alaska, and
which was referred, urged the National
Congress to pass laws that will prepare
Alaska for the homesteader, by the imme
diate survey of the valleys of the Copper,
Tan ana and Kusquogium Rivers, and ask
ing that proper aid and encouragement bo
extended to railroad construction from the
Southern ports of the Coast across tho
country to the Yukon River.
M ill Indorse Ship Subsidy.
. The committee on resolutions at a meet
ing tonight further considered the ship
subsidy resolution. The committee de
cided to recommend a resolution prac
tically supporting Mr. Root's ship sub
sidy suggestions, that the United States
may have an adequate merchant marine.
The resolution will suggest that the Gov
ernment subsidize' three mail steamship
lines between the United States and
Sotith America.
A resolution submitted by President
Francis declaring that the Congress is
unalterably opposed to the acquisition
of any more territory in the Western
Hemisphere by any European nation and
upholding the Monro Doctrine will bo
favorably reported.
Among other resolutions which the
committee will recommend are the fol
lowing: To build a deep waterway from the'
lakes to the Gulf.
To give statehood to New Mexico.
To increase the facilities for getting
American cattle to foreign markets.
For Government to establish a depart
ment of mines and mining.
The committee will finish its considera
tion of resolutions tomorrow morning,
after which it will report to the conven
tion. Predicts More Shipbuilding.
NEW YORK. Nov. 22. A great Im
provement in shipbuilding in the United
States for the coming year was predicted
by Rear Admiral Francis Bowles, presi
dent of the Society of Naval Architects
& Murine Engineers in an address at the
opening session of the society's annual
meeting here today.
Admiral Bowles expressed gratification
in quoting the remarks of Secretary Root
in his speech before the Trans-Mississippi
Commercial Congress in. Kansas City in
favor of the measure advocated by the
Merchant Marino Commission for de
velopment of foreign commerce under the
nag.

By Ambassadors of Great
Britain and Germany
at Banquet.
GERMANS SEEK COMMERCE
Von Sternberg Welcomes Tariff
Commission and Durand Voices
Good Will Elklns Extols "
Integrity of Senate.
NEW YORK, Nov. 22. The Ambassa
dors of two world powers to the United
States spoke at the annual banquet of
the New York Chamber of Commerce at
the Waldorf-Astoria tonight. They
were Baron Speck von Sternberg, of
Germany, and Sir Henry Mortimer Du
rand, representing- the British govern
ment. Senator Stephen B. Klkins, of
West Virginia, also spoke.
Sir Henry Durand expressed his re
gret at retiring from his post as Am
bassador and concluded:
"No Englishman ever came to this
country or left it with heartier good
will toward America than I."
When president Morris K. Jessup, of
the Chamber, proposed the health of
Presidont Roosevelt, he read a letter
from the Executive, expressing regret
that he could not be present. A mes
sage of regret from Commander Peary
was also read. Toasts to the health of
King Edward of England, Emperor
William of Germany and President Fal
lieres of France were drunk. The first
toast of the evening was responded to
by Baron von Sternberg, who said in
part:
German Hand of Friendship.
We are inviting you to closer commercial
relations. I rrfer to thp hand stretched over
to us the other day, which we so gladly ac
cepted. We are now stretching a friendly
hand across the North Atlantic which you
may grasp if you will. You have just sent
a commission of experts to Germany to
make a thorough study of the tariff situa
tion in Germany and to thoroughly acquaint
the Germans with the American situation.
May this step hring great advantages to the
commercial and industrial life in both our
countries. Germany has expressed her hearty
gratitude over this step, in which she no
tices the sincere efforts of the Washington
Administration to bring about an improve
ment of our commercial relations. Not only
shall we endeavor to give freely of the In
formation they seek, but we shall try to
understand from them more clearly the
point of view of the people whose Interests
they represent, thus arriving, I hope, at -a,
mutually satisfactory agreement.
. Elklns Defends the Senate.
The toast by Mr. Elkins followed. He
said:
In some quarters, among those not well
Informed, it seems fashionable to talk about
the decadence of the Senate. The decadence
of the Senate can only follow the decadence
of the people and would mark a backward
movement In the social condition, morals.
Intelligence and Integrity of the people. So
long as the people grow In virtue and in
Intelligence, live in an advancing civilization
and under a free government there can be
no decadence In high places, but instead,
an ever-increasing virtue and a loftier sense
of duty in our public servants.
In times of excitement and aroused pas
sions. In peace and in war, next to the
Supreme Court, the Senate is the sure refuge
and the safe reliance of the people in pre
serving their liberties and in all crises prov
ing the greatest guardian of the fortunes
of the Republic.
Senator C. M. Depew. who for months
had not attended any public gatherings,
was present.

ROOSEVELT STARTS HOME
Rides Across Porto Rico and Begins
Voyage Northward. .
SAN JUAN. Porto Rico, Nov. 22. Presi
dent Roosevelt and his party left San Juan
this morning by special train" for Arecibo,
40 miles west of this city, where they will
enter automobiles, drive to Ponce and
embark for home on board the Louisiana,
Governor and Mrs. 'Winthrop accompanied
the President to Arecibo and will bid him
farewell at Ponce. The car in which the
presidential party traveled was construct
ed of native wood especially for tho
Infanta E.ulalie when she visited Porto
Rico in 1S03.
Governor and Mrs. "Winthrop's recep
tion last night in honor of President and
Mrs. Roosevelt was the greatest social
function in the history of Porto Rico.
The executive mansion was not large
enough to accommodate tho guests, who
included a large number of members of
the Spanish colony.
President Roosevelt, during the even
ing, was happily' surprised at meeting B.
G. Horton, a former sergeant of the
Rough Riders, who, with his brother,
fought by the side of Colonel Roosevelt
at the battle of San Juan Hill.
The President's return home by way of
Ponce was necessary, because it was im
possible for him to board the Louisiana
outside San Juan harbor.

LAW UNTO THEMSELVES
Continued from First Page.)
ment. The recent shake-up and substitu
tion as manager of Agent Roberts, of the
O. R. & N.. for Captain Bailey, of the
Puget Sound Tugboat Company, has been
productive of good results. The storm of
adverse criticism has also awakened the
pilots to the necessity of doing their best,
and for the past month I can find but
little legitimate cause for complaint, but
it is expecting too much to look for a
continuation of this spasmodic improve
ment under the present system.
The bar service, both tug and pilotage.
Is. through necessity, being operated on a
different system from that which prevails
in other .ports. The changing conditions
have forced the O. R. & N. Co. to operate
the tug service, not for the purpose of
paying dividends as a tug business, but to
protect their rail interests and to hold
the shipping at Portland.
In a degree the pilots have the same
interest, but they have made no change
in their system for nearly a quarter of a
century. They take ordera from no one,
and if it Is not agreeable to them to take
a ship out when the tug Is ready to go,
the ship remains at anchor and there is
no court of appeal or higher authority.
Thie power Is not abused by some of the
pilots by othera it is, and the careless,
indolent pilot, when his "turn' in or out
comes, .has just as much to say about the
movement of shipping as t,he best man
in the business. If a tugboat man looked
too long on the wine or piled up ships in
clear rweather, he would lose his position
because there is some one in authority
over him. Perhaps an extension of this
authority might be beneficial to the pilot
service. .. ."
Need of Steam Pilot-Boat.
'Another' imperative need of the service
Is a steam pilot-boat, the presence of
which would enable the pilots to cover a
much wider range and alsff overhaul sail
ing vessels which could not work in cloae.
The pilots state that they are unable to
maintain a steam pilot-boat, although
they consider it a necessity.
It may be possible'to secure it and oper
ate it in connection with a tug service to
the advantage of both, in which case there
would, of course, be an amalgamation of
tug interests and pilot interests under one
head and one management, thus admit
ting the fixing of responsibility, which,
under the present separate systems, Is
difficult and usually impossible.

FEDERATIOXISTS GIVE MISS
WILSON' DIAMOND WATCH.
Because She Put l-'ather in Congress.
Tariff Debate Choked Off.
Sliilings' Open Shop.
MINNEAPOLIS, " -Nov. 22. Because
she went on the stump in behalf of her
trade unionist father, who was elected
to Congress from a Pennsylvania dis
trict. Miss Agnes Wilson was called be
fore the convention of the American
Federation of uabor this morning and
presented with a solid gold diamond
studded watch and a hugre bouquet of
chrysanthemums. Miss "Wilson is the
daughter of Congressman-elect W. B.
Wilson. . Frank K. Foster of Boston
made the presentation.
A resolution offered by the structural
iron workers asking the Federation to
frame a bill providing for a revision
of the tariff schedules on steel and
iron products started a discussion
which for a time threatened to drag
the Federation into politics. It was
contended that the selling of steel
products In foreign countries cheaper
than here is "detrimental to not only
the workingman but the country at
large." The resolution was voted
down.
The old time fight between the brew
ery workers, engineers, firemen and
teamsters was started again and was
still a bone of contention when the
convention adjourned.
A resolution was introduced un
der special order in behalf of the Interna
tional Typographical Union, the Interna
tional Printing Pressmen's Union, the As
sistants' Union and the International
Brotherhood of Bookbinders. The resolu
tion calls on the Federation to. .investigate
the general policy of Public Printer Stlll
ings toward the employes of the office,
and gives reasons for such request. It is
probable that the "open-shop" policy an
nounced by President Roosevelt in the
Miller case will come in for its share of
comment when this resolution is taken up.
A resolution was adopted calling upon
the various affiliated unions of the Fed
eration to support the trades-union papers
of the country by aiding them to extend
their circulation and by patronizing their
job offices when such shops are opened by
the papers.
STRIKE IN COTTON MILLS.
Operatives Reject Compromise and
Want Ten Per Cent Advance.
FALL RIVER. Mass., Nov. 22. Tho
five unions of cotton mill operatives
at several meetings today voted by
large majorities to reject an offer of
a five per cent advance in wages, and
to go out on strike next Monday morn
ing unless the demand for a ten per
cent increase is granted before that
time.
The operatives ask that wages be
restored to the schedule paid previous
to the reductions which were begun in
1903 and which amounted to 22 1-2
per cent. Last Spring a partial restora
tion was made, bringing the price of
weaving standard 28-inch, 64 by 64
print cloth to 19.80 cents per cut. The
price paid In 1903 was 21.78, the
amount now asked.

Harmless Pointed Toes
ONE OF THE REASONS
Ml
The Common Pointed Toe
j!
One of the many mistaken ideas concerning shoe comfort is that a
pointed-toed shoe mast be uncomfortable and harmful, and that a square
toed shoe is necessarily easy and healthful.
This is entirelv false, as a shoe with a oointed toe, if correctly made.
is both harmless and comfortable and fits the foot even better than
will one with a square toe.
Fig. A illustrates the common pointed toe, which cramps the toes out
of shape and thus destroys the beauty and usefulness of the foot.
Fig. B illustrates a Gotzian Toe and shows at a glance that the
foot is neither cramped nor crowded in the least. The sole is straight on
the inside of the foot, allowing the great toe its full freedom, and all he
pointing is accomplished from the outer side.
Thus the most fashionable toe may be worn without injury to the foot
Most first-class dealers handle Gotzian Shoes, and will gladly
prove this argument by fitting you with a pair.
