FROST FORMA . AMONG ENGLISH Respect, but No Enthusiasm, in Reception Given Him . in London. VOICES DESIRE FOR PEACE Anti-German Feeling Engendered by Clashes at Peace Conference ' Crops Out City Rejoices at His Departure;- ' LONDON, Nov. 13. Emperor William of Germany, the guest of King Edward, r made a Hpeech today at the Guildhall, where he was entertained by the CMty of London. He urged the strengthening of the Anglo-German relations and empha sized his unalterable' desire to foster the peace of the world. The day passed off without the expect ( ed Socialist demonstration, much less any disorder or rioting. The reception accorded Emperor William ; by the people of London has been respect ful, but, compared to that given some other royal visitors in recent years, it - was in no sense enthusiastic. The atmos- ' phere which prevailed during his appe;v-ani-e In public was tinged with decided coolness, and there is no doubt that the English officials are relieved that the passage of the German Emperor through the city was hot attended by any disa greeable Incidents. The anti-German feeling among a sec- '. tlnn of the English people, .which is at present particularly strong, derived fresh Impetus from the antagonism which cropped out between the two nations on various lines during the recent peace con ference at The Hague. Emperor William evidently intends that his visit' shall in spire better feeling, but the results are nut to be seen. ENTERTAINED BY LONDON CITY Kaiser" Says Germany and Britain Are Props o Peace. LONDON. Nov. 13. The Emperor and Empress of Germany were entertained at a luncheon in the Guild Hall by Lord Mayor Bell and the City Corporation. Eight hundred persons, including mem- bers ct the royal family, peers, com moners and naval and military officials, attended. Responding to an 'address of welcome, the Emperor said: ' "The main prop and ase for the peace of the world Is the maintenance of the relations between our two countries, and I will further strengthen them so far as lies In my power. If the German nation's wishes coincide with mine the future will show a bright prospect." Emperor William appeared In splendid spirits, but his face was pale and drawn. CONVINCED XASI IS GUILTY - Deputy Who Championed Grafting Minister Turns on Him. ROME, Nov. 13. The trial of Nunzlo Nasi, former Minister of Public Instruc tion, on charges of defrauding the state treasury, was continued yesterday. Dep uty Cappeli made a deposition before the court which is considered to be disastrous for the defense. Cappeli declared that at the beginning of the investigation he was convinced of the innocence of Nasi, but that .the avalanche of evidence had obliged him to change . his opinion. Among other things he said that the committee had been Informed by a doputy that the Ministry of Public Instruction under Nasi had become the headquarters of the Camorra and the Mafia. The: com mittee had examined certain forged re :elpts for subsidies intended for poor school teachers and had found that many of these were signed with fantastic names, such as "Donkey,"' ' "Liar," "Thief," etc., which showed the impu dence as well as the criminality of the forger. Several newspapers declare that Nasi has in reserve some sensational revela tions which he will make at the last mo ment ThiS consists in alleged proof that he gave the missing money to the late Premier Zanardelll to assist in the anti Austrian propaganda in the Italian prov inces still subject tOj Austria.

The Senate decided to continue the trial and also to hear the .testimony of the witnesses who have been called to estab lish the allegations that fraud was prac ticed in the distribution of subsidies by the minister of public instruction while it was under the direction of Nasi.

TRIAL LEADS TO SUICIDE Colleague of Banker Lewis Found Dead in His Home. ST. LOUIS, Nov. 13. N. Lee Travers, who for a time was intimately con nected with the real estate enterprises of E. G. Lewis. Mayor of University City, now on trial for using the mails to defraud, was found dead In the library- of his home at Klrkwood today. On the floor lay a glass and there was a strong odor of carbolic acid poison in the room. The Coroner's jury re? turned a verdict of death from carbolic ac'd poisoning:, but made no mention of suicidal Intent. Mr. Travers had been a suffererfrom extreme nervous ness. When the trial of Lewis -was resumed today, counsel for the defendant stated that Lewis' defense would be that the People's United States Bank, of which he was president at the time it was closed" by a Government fraud order, was absolutely solvent. The Government contends that It matters not whether any one was de fr.'iudod If It can be-'proven that Lewis originated a scheme, the purpose of which was to defraud, and that it Is wholly Immaterial wnether the bank was solvent If the conditions named in his, periodicals were not lived up to in all respects.

TliK MOKM OKEGOMAN, THURSDAY, XOVE3IBER 14, 1907. GETS MEN MIXED Woman Confuses Hearst With His Arch-Enemy. JOKE AT LIBEL HEARING Hitchcock's Cook "Involves Yellow Editor With Actor's Misdeeds, While Another Says Chanler Was Man' With Hitchcock. NEW YORK. Nov. 13. (Special.) Esther Polin, who was cook at the home of Raymond Hitchcock, the actor, at Great Neck, L. I., In. the Summer of 1906, picked out today in the court of special sessions William R. Hearst as the man whom she had seen at the house of her employer the afternoon that two little girls came there with Hitchcock in his automobile. The patent mistake made everybody roar, Mr. Hearst leading the laughter. Libel Suit Must Go On. When the hearing in the case against William R. Hearst for criminal libel upon the complaint of William Astor Chanler was continued before Justice Wyatt to day, the Justice announced that he denied both motions of counsel for the defense to dismiss the charges. Minnie Eurnl said she worked for the Hitehcocks at the time Esther was cook. When asked to point out Mr. Chanler, after looking at nearly everybody present, she finally halted in front of Mr. Chanler and said she thought he looked like the man who lived one door from Mr. Hitch cock. Spots Hearst as Man. Esther Polin. the cook, testified in English. She was told to look for Mr. Chanler. She walked up and down the aisle and several times passed where Mr. Chanler was seated. Then she wheeled around and caught sight of Mr. Hearst. "That's the man," she Bai.i, pointing to Mr. Hearst. The witness said she had opened the door for Mr. Chanler that afternoon, but that he had gone away again when told that Mr. Hitchcock was not at home.' Mr. Chanler did not return until the actor ind the little girls had their dinner, which was after 6:30 P.' M. MUST HE REVEAL DEALS (Continued From First Papr.) Is not a judicial body, nor Is it a com mission to reform the universe." Walter D. Hines appeared for Otto Kuhn. of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., who had held 105,000 shares of Union Pacific stock for the directors. He said Kuhn, Loeb & Co. acted as the fiscal agents of the Union Pacific. It was simply a practice, he said, for the Union Pacific to arrange with Kuhn, Loeb & Co. on a basis mu tually 'satisfactory to act as such agents. State and Federal Power. Mr. Spooner, In opening his argument, pointed out mat no question of the con stitutionality of the interstate commerce act was involved. He said: If such a question had arisen I would not be here, Inasmuch as I had a part in the framing of the act. It Is a question of the construction that, we contend for. a construction of It which will eliminate all doubt in respect to the power of the commission in a case like this in question. Mr. Spooner pointed out that the state may regulate its own corporations, while the power of Congress over interstate commerce is supreme and conclusive. The state fixes the amount of capital stock of a corporation; Congress can not. The state may repeal a corpora tion's charter; Congress cannot. The state may require that no officer or director shall, openly or secretly, have any business dealings with the cor poration with which he Is connected; the Federal Government has no such power. Can it be assumed that Con gress has inquisitorial powers to regu late the dividends of state railroad cor porations? Defends Rights of Directors. The interstate commerce act, he said, authorizes the Commission .to elicit such information as would aid in discharging its duties in the enforcement of the act. Taking up one of the questions put to Mr. Harrlman as to whether he was di rectly or indirectly interested in any stocks that were bought between July 19 and August 17, 1906. and that appreciated, Mr. Spooner said: ' Let it be assumed that Mr. Harrlman had answered that question and had stated that he owned stock that was sold to the company; is that Interstate commerce? Is the question that an agent or director has violated his duty as a director in any sense . interstate commerce? -Is it not a matter solely between ' the corporation, the stock holders and himself? . . Would Congress pass a law prohib iting a director of a company from dealing In stocks? It Is Inconceivable that a matter of trusteeship between a private corporation and one of Its body can be made the subject Qf inquisition by an administrative body o"r Congress. In the event of loss, could Congress have made restitution? Is it not a state matter. The state could punish, while Congress and the - commission could not. Mr. Spooner closed by saying that "to pillory a man at the bar of public opin ion in order to attract the attention elf Congress to the supposed need of legisla tion ie out of the domain of the Interstate Commerce Commission." No Limit to Inquiry. The final argument for the Government was made by Mr. Kellogg. He had not proceeded far when interrupted by Judge Hough, Who asked: "Isn't It true, Mr. Kellogg, that while the Commission is not required to limit the scope of Its Inquiry, did it not. as a matter of fact, limit its Inquiry in this case by a special order?" "As to that, your honor," replied the attorney, "the authorities have held that a Congressional commission need not limit itself to the subject matter of a res olution of Inquiry, but may go as far as it pleases, so long as it keeps within the power Of Congress to investigate." Mr. Kellogg said that for 15 years the Interstate Commerce- Commission had been Investigating matters which were not clearly delegated to It by Congress. These investigations and resultant recommenda tions had borne fruit in the dissolution of one vast illegal railroad merger, in the enactment of the safety appliance law, the employers' liability act and lastly the abolition of rebates. He continued: Were Stock. Sales Fraudulent? Another reason for this inquiry Is to ascertain whether this stock was sold to the Union Pacific in a bona fide way, what it was actually worth, or whether it was sold for speculation by a pool or fraudulently. The gentlemen on the other side are fond of saying these stocks were sold at their market value. This means their value as quoted in Wail Etreet. Who makes that value? The very circle of men who pooled their money and bought the stock. Matters such as these become' a proper subject- of inquiry In consider ing the question of rates, which the Interstate Commerce Commission cer tainly has the right to regulate. In like manner we have a right to inquire if the 10 per cent dividend suddenly declared by the Union Pacific Com pany was' justified from the earnings or whether It was purely a speculative dividend to enable certain persons to manipulate stock and reap enormous profits. What Is the Difference? - One of the questions Mr. Harrlman declined to answer was as to whether or not a block of $30,000,000 of stock in the Santa Fe Railroad was held by H. H. Rogers and H. C. Frick, two Union Pacific directors. Here Is a vital issue. Mr. Harrlman admits that the Union Pacific has not the riyht to control the Santa Fe, because it is a competing sys tem, but what Is the difference between the company itself owning the stock and two directors owning it and using it to suppress. competition. As a matter of fact, there Is now no competition be tween the Santa Fe and the Union Pa cific, and all roads or extensions re cently constructed stand jointly in the name of the Santa Fe and the Union Pacific. Are we to leave the great Western territory of the United States depend ent upon one man? Is there to he no , competition between the Missouri River 1 and the South Pacific Coast? Is Con ) gress impotent to- nrevent a arroiin of men irum controlling ail tne railroads of the United States through the medium of stock ownership by direct ors? Is the Interstate Commerce Com mission to be prevented from inquiring into such vital matters as these be cause Mr. Harrlman wills It so? Interest of the People. Mr. Kellogg declared that the people of the United States are vitally inter ested in the solvency of the great rail roads. The commission should not be hampered, he declared,, by the narrow rules of common law In carrying out its Investigation. .; He said It was purely within the province of the commission to know how a common carrier was loaded down with Issues of more than $180,000,000 in stock and -bonds, upon which it must earn revenues, and with which the directors might carry on stock deals in other companies. Union Pacific Prosecuted. CHAPPELLE, Neb., Nov. 13. Attorney General Thompson today started suit against the Union Pacific Railroad, alleg ing discrimination against B. W. Jacobs, who was disciplined by the railroad for driving his cattle into Nebraska to take advantage of reduced rates. - Jacobs ordered cars at Big Springs, and after he reached that place with his cat tle was compelled to pasture them about in the hills for. 25 days before he could secure cars. In the meantime shippers on the other side of Big -Springs secured cars. The penalty for violation of the dis crimination clause of the Interstate Com merce Commission law is no le&s than $100 nor more than $5000. HIG MEN SNOW HEAT PROPOSED TEMPLE AT DENVER RAISES STORM. National Congress Delegates Insin uate. That Colorado Has Been Remiss In the Matter. JOPLIN, Mo., Nov. IS. At the session of the American Mining Congress today. Secretary Callbrailh, in an impromptu address, as substitute for Ex-Governor C. S. Thomas, of Denver, emphasized the Importance of the building of a great mining temple at Denver. This address opened the way for other mem bers to ask of Colorado and Denver an account of their stewardship in the mat ter of , the proposed temple. ' It is sug gested that the American Mining Con gress had heard before of the contem plated temple. Throughout the day and night there was in evidence a disposition among the mining men to be Just a little bit on the aggressive. Late tonight a rumor was placed in circulation calculated to injure the chances of Columbus, O., regarded as a leading candidate for the honor af en tertaining the next annual congress. This rumor was to the effect that Ohio should name the official to be in charge of the proposed Bureau of Mines. Some delegates resent what they term a dis position to .inject politics into the ses sions of the congress, and, regardless of the merits of the controversy, the rumor will doubtless exercise an influence In the final decision. Members of the board of directors were elected tonight "as follows: Dr. E. R. Buckley, Rolla, . Mo., three years; Colonel George W. B. Dorsey, Fremont, Neb., three years; John Dern, Salt Lake .City, three years; A. L. White, Colum bus. O., one year. The congress devoted a short morning session today to technical papers Ed ward Parker, of Washington. D. C. dis cussed the subject of "How Long Our Coal Supply Will Meet the Increased Demands of Our Commerce." Dr. Waldemar Llndge, also of Wash ington City, read a paper entitled, "How Long Will Our Gold Supply Last?" ASK $50,000,000 A YEAR Ransdeil Urges Harmony on River and Harbor Work. LAKE PROVIDENCE, La., Nov. 13. An address urging harmony of all sec tions of the United States to the end of securing $50,000,000 annually from Congress for river and harbor Improve ments, was Issued by Congressman J. E. Ransdeil, president of the National Rivers and Harbors Congress. Mr. Ransdeil said: All projects In the Union now under con templation and which have been approved by the engineer' department lnvolv. a cost of less than S500.000.000. At the rate of $50,000,000 a year all of mem could be pro vided for In 10 years. It Is unquestionable whether more than $50000,000 a year can be expended wisely and that should be di vided among a number of projects. , I understand that a feeVng of discord has been . generated among waterway people. We who have good projects can eafely .rely upon their merits if a broad, liberal water way policy Is adopted. HIGHWAYMEN RUN DOWN Two Captured Red-Handed by San Francisco Police. SAN FRANCISCO.

BELL LAUNCHES HIS KITE MAY SOLVE PROBLEM OF AER. IAIi NAVIGATION. Machine Built of Winged Cells Is Now Complete and Will Soon Be Given a Test Flight. BADDECK, Nova Scotia, Nov. IS. After many years' of experimental work the machine with which Alexander Graham Bell hopes to solve the problem of aerial navigation was successfully launched today In the presence of a large number of close friends of the Inventor. The launching took place at Professor Bell's workshop. Mrs. Bell, In breaking a bottle of champagne over the bow of the ship, declared its name to be the "Signet." - The kite was conveyed to a float, on which It was lowered to the waters of Bras d'Or lake, but owing to adverse sea a flight was not attempted. The ship, or kite, is a tetrahedron, 13 metres long on top, 10 metres along the bottom by three feet In the deep. It is composed of 3393 units or small tetrahedrons, two facets of which are covered with silk, this forming a. two winged cell. A hole has been cut through the center of the contrivance to furnish accommodation for the mo tor and navigator. The ship is also provided with a bow for flying pur poses. A motor with four cylinders of 20 horsepower will drive two solid screw propellers on the same shaft, but In opposite directions. With the motor the airship weighs 220 pounds. Professor Bell says he does not as sert that the "Signet" has solved the problem for which It was constructed. He says the threshold has been reached in the development of the machine, and th'e tests will furnish data for future experiments. Builds Airship IJke Butterfly. PARIS. Nov. 13. M.
