COMMISSION
TO
ACT ON CURRENCY
Only Point on Which House
and Senate Conferees
Agree.
BOTH BILLS ARE HOPELESS
Joint Commission Will Recommend
Measure Next Session Last Ob
stacle to Adjournment of Con
gress Saturday Removed.
WASHINGTON, May 20. The ap
pointment of a Currency Commission
to be composed of nine Senators and
nine members of the House, will be
provided for by a bill which Senator
Aldrlch will introduce in the Senate
tomorrow and. if this Is passed by
Congress, It will comprise all of the
financial legislation that will be en
acted at the present session.
This course was decided upon today
by the conferees on the Aldrlch-Vree-land
currency bill at a final conference,
which demonstrated beyond question
that there is no hope of getting an
agreement between the Senate and
House on an emergency measure.
- Will Adjourn Saturday:
Undoubtedly this decision means that
leaders in Congress are determined upon
a final adjournment of Congress next
Saturday. No question before Congress
at the present session has received such
earnest attention as that of passing a
bill which would provide against finan
cial crises of the character experienced
last Fall. The efforts to legislate, how
ever, were complicated from the start
with demands from individuals who de
sired to bring about a general revision
of the laws to regulate banking and
amend the whole currency system of the
Government. These demands were made
In both branches of Congress, and the
bills reported in each house in conse
quence were more or less compromise
measures.
Xo Chance of Compromise.
Conferees on the part of the Senate
and the House failed to get down to a
discussion of the details of the two bills
finally sent to the conference. The sen
timent was such that in either body there
appeared to be no chance of compromise
and It is said that, If Congress were to
stay In session a week longer, neither
could be induced to yield. In .view of
all these circumstances, the conferees
reached the opinion that "It would be
better to pass a bill providing for a com
mission on which there is no difference of
opinion. It is not expected that either
the Senate or the House will discharge
Its conferees and. If no report Is ready
from the commission at the next session
of Congress, an emergency measure may
then be agreed upon for immediate action.
SENATE PASSES OMNIBUS BIUj
Provides for $35,000,000 in Public
Buildings Many Increases.
WASHINGTON. May 20. The Senate
today passed the omnibus public build
ing bill. Inserting not only the numer
ous amendments Ktivoreated by the Sen
ate committee on public buildings and
grounds, but also a few proposed by
individual Senators. As passed the bill
carries a total of about J3o.000.000, of
which J6,000,000 is for building con
tracts. The larger appropriations for
new buildings added by the Senate In
cluded: Riverside, Cal., 125,000; Ever
ett and Walla Walla, Wash.. $140,000.
The limit of cost fixed for the sub
treasury building in San Francisco was
increased from $375,000 to $625,000.
The Senate amendment providing for a
new office building for the departments
of State and Justice to be used Jointly
was retained, the ultimate cost of
which is limited to $2,500,000, and it is
hinted that if this item is not retained
the bill may be allowed to fall. The
amendment appropriating $400,000 for
purchase of an embassy building in
Paris to be used as an office and resi
dence, also was accepted by the Senate.
Trademark. Treaty With Japan.
WASHINGTON. May 20. The Senate
committee on foreign relations today
voted to report favorably on two treaties
with Japan for protection of American
trademarks, patents and copyrights in
Manchuria and COrea, and Japanese
trademarks, patents and copyrights in
the United States.
No Agreement on Currency.
WASHINGTON. May 20. Conferees on
the Aldrich-Vreeland currency bill
held another meeting today and failed to
agree. It is now apparent that the whole
subject of financial legislation will go
over until the next session.
McGregor Named for Collector.
WASHINGTON, May 20. The Presi
dent today nominated 'William F. Mc
Gregor to be Collector of Customs for
the District of Oregon.
T PEACE
GOOW PROSPECT OF SETTLING
CLEVELAND STRIKE.
One Car Dynamited and Explosives
" Found Strewn on Streets Re
ward Offered by Johnson.
CLEVELAND, O., May 20. Barring a
possible 'squabble over the detailB of the
settlement, the indications at midnight
were that a peaceable end of the strike
of motormen and conductors against
the Municipal Street Railway Company
will come tomorrow. The conferees at
that hour still were in executive session,
but according to reports emanating from
the room the chances seemed to be that
an amicable agreement to arbitrate the
matters in dispute would be reached be
fore adjournment.
Incipient cases of attacks upon cars
were reported late in the night, the most
serious of which was the dynamiting of a
Loraine avenue car at West Sixty-fifth
street. The trucks were demolished and
30 passengers were panic-stricken. None,
however, were Injurd.
In other sections of the city a few
cars suffered from stone-throwers, but
altogether the night passed without a
recurrence of the extreme violence of the
day past.
. A patrolman found fully 100 big dyna
mite caps scattered along the cartracks
at Bridge avenue and West Forty-fifth
street, at 2 o'clock this morning. The
caps were placed so close together that
they would have completely wrecked the
first cars that struck them. Fifteen min
utes later he found a bottle of nitro
glycerin lying in the gutter at Bridge
avenue and West Forty-third street.
Mayor Johnson offered a reward today
for Information leading to the arrest and
conviction of rioters.
Cars were run today on practically a
full schedule.
THEY STILL FIGHT
Evidence That Paper Manu
, facturers Compete.
EAGER TO MAKE DEFENSE
New Witnesses Will Prevent Report
on Paper Trust This Session.
Jobber Says Mills Quote
Varying Prlecs.
WASHINGTON, May 20. The inves
tigation of the wood-pulp and print paper
industry was not. concluded today by the
special House committee, and the chances
for a report being made to Congress in
time for action at this session are not
as bright as they were a few days ago.
A number of paper manufacturers were
amined today, and the committee was
'ormed that several others are due from
he West tomorrow. The testimony today
embraced both the increase of the. cost
of the body that goes into the paper and
the increase In the rate of wages. Ar
guments against the removal of the tar
iff on wood-pulp and paper also were
made.
Middlemen Crowded Out.
William ' B. Littleton, of the Antietam
Paper Company, Hagerstown, Md., job
bers of news print paper, denied, that his
firm was selling agent of the International
Paper Company, as has been charged.
He said his company was not the selling
agent of any manufacturer. The lowest
price he ever bought paper at was $1.60
delivered in Hagerstpwn. This was some
time in the nineties.
The witness said that in September,
1907, he had been informed by the Inter
national Paper Company that., when Its
contracts with Jobbers expired, the com
pany was going to eliminate the jobbers
and sell Its product direct to news
papers. Mr. Littleton told of one instance
where he had been selling paper to a
publisher at $1.60 per hundred. When his
contract expired he quoted a price
slightly in excess of this amount, but
the Manufacturers' Paper Company made
a quotation at $1.57 and secured the con
tract. Finds Quotations Vary.
"So you are finding 4t difficult to main
tain that advance in price?" interposed
Chairman Mann.
1 Mr. Littleton said that since this ac
tion of the International Paper Company
he had been buying paper of jobbers and
also from mills. He read a number of
quotations that had been furnished him
for the purpose of supplying orders, these
quotations coming from mills and jobbers
AGAIN VENTS ANGER
Rayner Vainly Pleads Cause of
Colonel Stewart.
SENATE TURNS DEAF EAR
Maryland Senator Compares Roose
velt to Absolute King and Threat
ens to Arouse Public Opin
ion Against Him.
WASHINGTON, May 20. Senator Ray
ner again today ma-e an appeal to the
Senate for a votts on a resolution "au
thorizing and requesting" the President
to appoint a court of Inquiry to investi
gate charges against Colonel William F.
Stewart, Coast Artillery,- stationed at
Fort Grant, Arizona. Rayner declared
his belief that the committee on military
affairs' would not report his resolution
during the present session of Congress,
HE'S SORRY; OH YES, HE'S SORRY!
and asked that a modified resolution he
had prepared be acted upon by the Sen
ate, without the intervention of the com
mittee. Objection being made, further
consideration of the resolution was post
poned. Rayner said he called up his resolu
tion because he was satisfied there would
be no action this session by the commit
tee on military affairs. He referred sar
castically to the delay In sending the
papers in the case from the War Depart
ment to the Senate, and then reminded
the Senate that meanwhile Colonel. Stew
art was on the heights of Arizona, "at an
altitude as high as the President in a cli
mate as cold in Winter as it was hot in
Summer. His companions were festive
and convivial, consisting of a caretaker,
a teamster and several Government mules.
He continued:
Sarcasm Poured Forth.
"If the President is satisfied, every
body ought to be satisfied. Why not?
What right has anybody to be dissatis
fied with anything that satisfies the
President? Who would be guilty of such
a treasonable act? The King cannot com
mit a wrong, and therefore the President
cannot commit a wrong. Congress may
make the gravest mistakes. Courts may
err. Human judgment at the zenith of
its strength may arrive at faulty and
erroneous conclusions, but the executive
never can blunder. Infallibility is one of
his attributes. When he has finished with
the prosecution and there has been no
testimony allowed to be produced on the
other side, he is so well fortified and in
trenched that you cannot assail him."
He asserted Colonel Stewards right to a
hearing, to be confronted with the hos
tile witnesses and to have counsel. . He
appealed to the Senate to vote on his
resolution, saying that, if it refused, the
only relief would be for Colonel Stewart
to die in captivity. Then the country
might come to the same conclusion as
England came to in the case of one of
her bravest Admirals. He predicted that,
if the Senate did not act, public opinion
would, and continued :
"It will take the unfortunate officer and
transfer him from the custody of the
President into the presence of the people,
and, trampling with an iron, heel upon
the desperate experiment of authority
that the President had used, it will give
to his victim, humbte, unimportant and
unpretentious as he may be, the right to
be heard in self-defense, a right not only
accorded him by the laws of his land,
but a natural right that God has given,
which it should not lie within the power
of any potentate in the universe to de
prive him of if there Is any conscience
or humanity in the heart of man or any
justice left upon this earth."
While Mr. Rayner was speaking, he was
inuterrupted by Warren, chairman of the
committee on military affairs, but de
clined to yield, and In retaliation Warren
objected to the further consideration of
the resolution. A parliamentary question
having been raised as to the right of the
Senator from Maryland to proceed, the
Vice-President declared that the motion
to consider the resolution would have to
lie over until tomorrow, except by unani
mous consent.
Warren finally withdrew his objection
on being assured that he could ask such
questions as he desired. 'He .then de
clared that, as chairman of the commit
tee on military affairs, . he had done
everything possible to secure information
concerning the inquiry into the case of
Colonel Stewart. He said he did not ob
ject to the sarcastic remarks from the
Senator from Maryland.
Rayner continued, saying he was satis
fled there would be no report on his res
olution by the combine before adjourn
ment. He finally offered a modified reso
lution, authorizing and requesting the
President to proceed with the inquiry, to
which Lodge objected, and It went over
until tomorrow. He also moved to dis
charge the committe from further consid
eration of the original resolution, but the
motion was not acted upon.

SUEO TRUSTS AS SECURITY
MEMBER OF FAILED BROKER
AGE FIRM INDICTED.
Taken From Sanatorium to Court
Against Advice of Physicians.
More Than 100 Complaints.
NEW YORK, May 20. Upon the find
ing today of an indictment against him
by the Grand Jury, Thomas A. Mclntyre
of the failed brokerage firm of T. A Mc
lntyre & Co., was arrested on a warrant
charging grand larceny in the first de
gree. He gave $25,000 bail and was re
leased. Mclntyre' s arrest was made In the face
of vigorous protests by his physicians at
the sanitarium, where he has been a pa
tient since shortly after the failure of
the firm. After his arraignment before
Judge Rosalsky in the General Sessions
Court and the furnishing of his bond
by a surety company, he was taken back
to the sanitarium.
Mclntyre's indictment was the out
growth of an investigation into the af
fairs of the Mclntyre firm in the United
States District Court. The specific charge
against him is based on the claim of
Ellen Sedgwick of Hartford, Conn., that
a certificate for B0 shares of United States
Steel stock, which she had placed with
the Mclntyre firm as trustee, for the
purpose of having a portion of the stock
transferred to her nephew, was put up
as collateral by the firm for a loan which
it had negotiated on its account with the
Metropolitan Trust Company. Assistant
District Attorney Train said tonight that
there were more than 100 complaints
against the Mclntyre firm in his office,
Involving between (300,000 and $400,000
worth of securities turned over to the
firm by investors. These securities can
not now be found.
