Acfordini? -to common r port in Washington. Senator Bourne is cxperiencir;? considerable difficulty in gf-tting his Roosevelt press bureau under way. !t is rumored that he has been aided in this pro.iU by Henry B. Nerd hain, chief promoter of the people's lobby and y pIofc friend of the President. Mr. Xeeiiham was to have Urrn editor-in-chief and had general rharjye. But a report of Mr. Xeedham's activity reached the President and he is aaid to have expressed such surprise and disgust that -Mr. Needham has withdrawn, leav ing Mr. Bmirnf without an editor. Mr. Needham deems it more important to preserve friendly relations with the Presi dent than to Rain considerable glory In Mr. Bournes bureau. Mr. Bourne is therefore still looking for a guiding spirit to direct his latest en terprise. Several reputable newspaper men have refused the Job. though It car ries a salary of $50 per week.

OPTION BILL SPELLS RUIN Chicago Board of Trade lias Con ference With President. WASHINGTON. March 4 A con ference was held at' the White House tonight between President Roosevelt and a committee representing the Board of Trade, of Chicago, headed by Hiram N. Sager. president of that organization, when the visitors laid before the presi dent their views relating to anti-option U'KiRiation pending in Congress. Most of these hills are aimed at dealing In futures, and It is the contentions of the representation of the Board of Trade that the measures, if enacted into law. would jeopardise legitimate methods of trade In agricultural prod nets. While these bills affect both grain and cotton, the Chicago Board representatives are greatly Interested in the grain trade. Speaking of the measures which have been introduced in Congress, Mr. Sager said: "If these bills In their present form are passed, they . will close the large grain exchanges of the country and result in a confusion and ultimate Hss to grain interests. Including merchants, fanners and others.' The members of the committee de clined to say what took place at the con ference beyond the statement that the president would take the matter under consideration. 11EVBVKX RAPS FINANCIERS Condemns Aldrieh BUI as Medicine t.ivcu After Recovery. WASHINGTON. March 4. Currency legislation was the subject of considera tion in the Senate today. Hey burn op posed the Aldrich bill and declared It was useless and he Would not vote for it. Ueyburn laid great stress upon what he declared was the wrong principle of allowing security to be ucd as a basis for emergency circulation. He declared that only bonds that have the taxing power back of them should be used for that purpose. The passage of the bill now. he said, was like giving a man medi cine after he had recovered from an ill ness. He said the so-called panic was only a nightmare and. if linaneiers are ffien to understand that they cannot depend upon Government assistance in such cases they are more apt to conduct their affairs on a sound basis and thus prevent panics. He took the ground that the result of the bill might he to supplant the present currency with the emergency bills, as the bills, once In circulation, could not readily be called back. "let us say to those financial jugglers. said Heyburn. "you are not to have more currency when you have unlawfully used the money you have, nor an elastic cur rency that shall be in keeping with your conscience." He said he had never felt his breast swell with gratitude toward the financiers In Xew York, who had been given credit for saving the situation. Perkins spoke at length in support of ' the bill. Baitey stated that he would speak on t lie hill Monday and Depew will speak on Friday. AMreh announced that he hoped to have a vote on the measure next Wcd nsday. A canvass of the Senate made to ascertain the sentiment in regard to the hill indicates that there will be morn Democratic Senators for it than Repub lican Senators against it. Since the speech by Smith of Michigan in opposi tion to thv railroad bond feature it has been stated persistently that there is a Republican defeetton that endangers the passage of the bill.

BATTER DOWN ALL DOORS Capture of Stronghold of Oriental Gamesters Effected by Sensa tional Methods Xot One of Victims Escapes Arrest. In a raid made last night on S7 Second street 30 Chinamen were arrested and taken tc the police station, charged with gambling. The raid was made by De tectives Kay and Smith, assisted by Po liceman Keinlen. who formerly was ue toilrd on this work In Chinatown. Although it is understood that the sup pression of all forms of Chinese gam bling is in the hands of Detectives Price and Coleman, the raid made last night does not indicate that Kay and Keinlen are back again on the Chinatown beat. It was explained by the police officials that the reason that the raid had been made by these men was because they had information which would lead to a coup and they were instructed to make the raid. The capture of the 10 men was about as sensational a brush as the Chi nese and police have ever had. The room in which the men were arrested is on the top floor of No. S" Second street, but it has passageways leading to several of the adjoining houses, through the solid brick walls of which doorways have been cut. These entrances" are protected by doors six inches thick. In one passageway leading to this gambling-room the prog ress of the raiding officers was obstructed by no less than three of ' these thick doors, which were not more than two or three feet apart. These had to be battered down with sledge-hammers, i he detectives caught their men by approach ing this room from all three entrances and thus prevented escape. When the Chinese found they were caught and could not get out, they laughed and said that they would send for their attor ney. In a few moments this worthy ap-, peared as if by magic, or as if he had been waiting ajround the corner to . be notified. . The Chinese were found with all lie paraphernalia of the fantan game in their possession. They were not locked up at the police station, as the proprie tor of the place came at once and depos ited bail for all those arrested, for tne players as well as the paid employes who ran the game. The raid on No. 87 caused a sensation in the Chinese quarter. It has been com mon rumor for many months that tntan was played day and night in this house.

Ford and Kugene Schmtts. in which document he makes the statement for the first time that the first persons to try to induce him to accept immunity and give testi mony against the . others indicted were ex-Supervisors James L.

Valuable Pointers Regarding the Care of a Piano. Very few piano owners realize the necessity of havinja: their piano care fully timed, adjusted and inspected regularly. This is especially true with the high-grrade instruments, which are delicately adjusted. It is absolutely necessary to keep the pitch of the instrument true. A piano may sound in fairly good tune and still be a fourth to a half tone above or below the pitch or tension it is built to sustain. In such cases the piano can not produce the quality or amount of tone intended. Not only should it be properly tuned, but the action should also be carefully inspected and, if necessary, adjusted. There is also danger of the hammers and feit cushions becoming moth-ridden. Quite a number of instruments have been greatly damaged by this little insect. Rv bvina:.the piano carefully and regularly Inspected, this latter evil "can be overcome. A piano should be tuned, adjusted and inspected not less than twice a year, and then only by men who are known to be exports in their line.
