OREGON MAN PROTESTS Calls on Chairman of Interstate C'ommcr-e Committee to X'rge Re port Threatens to Carry the Fight to the Senate Floor. ORKCiONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, April 1'S. Senator Fulton, accom panied by Senators Piles and Flint, called on Chairman Elkins, of the Interstate Commerce Committee today, to urge Im mediate action on the Fulton bill, which prohibits any Increase In interstate freight rates, where protest Is made, until the Interstate Commerce Commission, after a hearine. shall hold such increase to be reasonable. Mr. Fulton, two months ago. agreed to accept an amendment suggested by the Interstate Commerce Commission, giving the committee discretionary power to say what increases should go Into effect with out hearing, and what should Jw held up pending investigation. Elkins, knowing this fact, stated that, if Fulton would redraft his bill, making it conform to the nminlssion s recommendations, his com niittee would report it at the next meet ing, held Friday. Mr. Fulton will carry out this su-g.-stlon. but says that unless. Blkins acta squarely and reports the resolution as promised, he will move to dlscharte the committee from further consideration of the hill, and make a tight on -the floor of the Senate. Mr. Elkins is probably play ing for delay, for it is entirely within the province of his committee to make the change in the bill which he suggests shall be made by Mr. Fulton, and it is more than likely that a fight will be precipitated before adjournment. , as contemplated in the original act. The amount of land to be so conveyed shall not exceed 10 acres." Thinks Dog Better Emblem.. WASHINGTON, April 28. Repre sentative Leake, of New Jersey, in- l speech in the House today criticised President Roosevelt as desiring; to perpetuate himself in office by pro curing the election of a proxy.

PARTNERS AT A PREMIUM AVlien Supply of Girls Gives Out, the Jackies Dance With Each Other Ships Get Lost in Fog in Harbor. SANTA BARBARA, Cal., April 28. There were no fixed features on Santa Barbara's entertainment programme in honor of the Atlantic battleship fleet today, the officers and men being large ly allowed to pursue their own ways. Many of the latter went to Los Angeles to spend, the day, and will over-stay their leaves, which expire at 1 A. M. The amusements offered the bluejack ets in Santa Barbara are naturally rather meager, owing to the size of the city, and consist largely of flying horses, shooting galleries and a large variety of catch-penny affairs, brought here for the occasion. Dancing1 on the canvas-covered am pliation, the ocean boulevard, each evening, is the only picturesque fea ture of the bluejackets' entertainment. They seem to enjoy it hugely, however, and when the available supply of eligi ble girls gives out they dance with each other. It is no easy task to provide partners for 1000 or more dancing sail ors. For the officers today, there was a garden party and in the evening a dance. A number of luncheons and tea parties on the battleships were given to the junior officers. At intervals today, the fleet was en tirely lost to view in fog banks, 'which blow In from the southward. All morn ing long, the fog bells on the 16 ships were kept going at a lively rate. Dur ing the afternoon the sun shone for several hours through the mist, but toward evening- the heavy banks low ered over the ships again. The officers of the fleet nave many men overstaying their liberty, due to the large number that nave gone to Los Angeles; Instead f remaining In Santa Barbara. The sailors had a rare good time in Los Angelee. and count the three anda half hours journey from here to that city as nothing when in search of amusement ashore. Lieutenant-Commander W. Carev Cole, navigating officer of the United states bteamship Kansas, left tonle-ht for Sari Francisco, wihlther he has been ordered to take command of the Naval patrols to be established in that city during the stay of the Atlantic and Pa cific fleets. This duty is one of . treme Importance, and Commander Cnl was selected far the position by per sonal direction of Admiral Thomas. He Is an officer of ability and excellont judgment. The system of landing armed rjatrol from each of the ships of the Atlantic fleet at every port visited has proved a most successful means of handling any delinquents among the men. Their respect for the authority of their own officers and ehipmates is supreme. Com mander Cole is sent in advance of the fleet's arrival in San Francisco to map out districts and plan the extensive work of the patrols there. The fleet will leave here Thursday morning. A dance of the flowers, in honor of the officers, is the feature of tomorrow's programme. CHINESE WILIj ENTERTAIN Preparations Being Made to Receive Visit of American Fleet. PEKIN. April 28.
