port lu Housing Reform III II.
HOUSE OF COMMONS. I.ONLOX. Auk.
I (Special.) It la always pleasant to
be ahl to record tomtihlnii'i being done
on behalf of the working- man. Whin 1
first entered Parliament that wes one of
fh dealrea that wu mst vivid with
me. We are all working men la a way
that la to Bay. those of ua who deaerve
to live at all. But quite apart from that,
the man who la at the base of the nation,
the laboring- man. the broad-backed
Atlas who support It all. la often sorely
tried and worsted in this life.
One of the passages of Carlyle that
made the deepest Impression on me and
now wmi to redeem much of the later
-rsntanlserousness" and cross-grained re
action of the celebrated sage of Chelsea.
Is that where he says: "Two men I
honor, and no third. First, the tollworn
Craftaman that with earth-made Imple
ment laboriously conouera the Karth. and
makes her man's. Veneral to me la Vie
hard hand; crooked, coars: wherein not
withstanding; Ilea a cunning virtue: In
dofeaslbly royal, as of the Sceptre of this
Flanet. Venerable too la the rugged face,
all weather tanned, be-solled. with Its
rude Intelligence; for It Is the face of a
Alan living man-like. O. but the more
venerable for thy rudeness, and even be
cause we must pity as well as love thee!
Hardly-entreated Brother! For us was
thy back so bent, for us were thy
straight limbs and fingers so deformed
thou wert out Conscript, on whom the lot
fell, and fighting our battles wert thou
so marred."
All thta is true even of the peasant of
some of the country districts of blngland
who Is said to set through Ufa with
about Are hundred words in Ills vocabu
lary. Irish Wit Landed.
Certainly I do not want to say any
thing against the English peasant with
tils fine qualities of strength, honesty and
atubborn courage; but naturally my pre
dilections are In favor of the Irish peas
ant with his wit. gaiety and good-humor,
which are but the peaceful counterpart
of those qualities of intrepidity and fire
that he has displayed on so many well
fought fields.
But unfortunately the lot of the Irish
peasant Is a hard one; becoming less so.
I am glad to think, but never containing
much beyond a life of hard toll, light
ened only by his Inextinguishable humor.
I have recently received a letter from
a friend In Ireland, saying: "The labor
ers will soon have a few weeks' work,
but when that Is gone they will have to
fare the long winter with only very pre
carious employment- Their lot la a hard
one. In some of the cottages the rain
comes through the thatched roof and
these dwelling places are miserable and
Insanltar) "
Millions Put in Cottages.
The gratifying feature of the prom
ised legislation that will mark thla ses
. slon Is that the sum of $5.ooo.noo will
be devoted to the erection of model cot
tages in Ireland for the benefit of the
laborers. This Is supplemental to a sum
of over l:;.uto.o0 which had been ap
plied to that purpose, but had become
e nausieu.
A word should be said about the cot
tages themselves. They cost on an
average about So to 1900 each and.
as one might readily suppose, that al
lows no great margin for ornaments
of style. The rottages are designed
for convenience and comfort and they
contain everything, very neatly ar
rangid, luat a laboring man with a
family could require. In all, some 60.
00 have been built, but though that
figure Is not small, yet distributed
through the whole of Ireland It means
only a cottage dotted here and there,
adding "a new note to the landscape."
Surroundings Are Beautified.
But the advantage of these cottage
does not rest with the comfort of the
Immediate possessor, for the neatness
and good situation of the buildings
liave encouraged the cottagers to de
velop flower gardens and to beautlfy
their surroundings In a modest way.
This has set the example to others, and
the emulation so produced has caused
a pleasing competition In flower plots
to arise. This feature had been too
lacking previously In country district',
but now that a start haa been made no
doubt the artistic taste of the Irish
will produce results satisfactory even
to the visiting critic. Then again each
cottage forma a model to those whj
have not the advantage of one of these
buildings and so it becomes a legiti
mate object of ambition to possess on?.
Tuberculosis has of recent years proved
a great scourge of Ireland, and thesd
model laborers' cottagea must be wel
comed aa one of tire best Indirect means
of combating that Insidious disease.
The history of the afTair is briefly
thla. As far back as 1SSJ the move
ment was started by legislation, but
owing to a variety of causes slow pro
gress was at first made, so that up to
the year ls only 20.000 cottages ha-!
been bulrt. Then a bill was Introduced
to allot a sum of over l'o.ooo.ooo In
such a way that it. was partly a gift,
but partly also a loan at a low rate of
interest. There was also a provision
made so that by means of a sinking
fund the UeM would gradually become
absorbed.
lrir.li Crushed by Taxes.
This arrangement left a considerable
annuity to be provided by the local
authorities, and as the poor Irishman
at home Is as miu-h. If rot more,
crushed by the weight of local rates
as by Government taxes, many local
authorities found It difficult to rise
to the height of welcoming these la
borers' cottages with as much enthu
siasm aa had been expected. This was
particularly the case In l ister. ' where
the admixture of Scotch blood appears
to have made the people mure canny
than In the South.
On the other hand, even the money
rnt on the cottages Is not lost, for
it provides labor In the community,
and as the taxable value of the people
depends on that, the local Councils get
some of their own back again. But.
eulte apart from that, nearly $,ii),-'
9"0 accrued to Ireland as a bonus.
Mrre Money Offered.
That money having r.ow become ex
haaated. the work of building the pot
tages had come to a standstill. Tbta
waa a great pity, for In the last four
yeara more cottages hava been built
than In the previous 23. Under these
circumstances. Irish Secretary Augus
tine Blrrell. who has shown himself
the most sympathetic of all the Chief
Secretaries who have ruled In Ireland,
decided to offer another $5,000,000 on
the previous terms.
Blrrell, In announcing this derision,
made one of his characteristic speeches
In which there ' Is always a cutioua
blend of humor, common sense and
business-like acumen. He said he was
well acquainted with the Inferior ac
commodation of many sf the working
people of Ireland, but even In cases
where he could not enter a habitation
without stooping, he found a kindly
and courteous welcome from people
as well qualified to extend such a wel
come aa any people be had met in any
part of the world.
An amusing but Instructive Incident
occurred during the rebate. An Eng
lish member rose and announced that
he would oppose the bill when it was
presented, because he represented an
English constituency and he was desir
ous of having something similar done
for the English laborer, but he could
get no support. John Redmond, leader
of the Irish party, on the spur of the
moment, cried out: "We will help you."
Sir John Jardlne. for that was his
name, seemed a little surprised but
much pleased by this turn of events,
and sat down, declaring that his oppo
sition was at an end. This serves to
point a moral that Is becoming mora
and more true there should be no con
flict of interests between the English
and Irish democracies. Home rule
would not only be an act of Justice
to Ireland, but In the long run would
be a benefit to England, certainly to
the democracy of England.
CROPS GOODAS LAST YEAR

XEW YORK. Aug. I. B. F. Yoakum,
president of the St. Louis San Fran
Cisco Railway Company, gave It as his
belief tonight on his return from a
short Western trip. that the crop
yields this year will be about thoae of
last year, despite damage in some
quarters.
"Anxiety over crop reports from the
southwestern States has greatly sub
sided, he said, "on account of good
rains- This year's Kansas wheat crop
Is estimated at S7.000.000 against 87.

Army Celled on for Peace.
Signor Canalejas openly tells his
frlenas he will persist In his policy
because he has the King's confidence,
and the support of . all Liberals and
Republicans. The leaders and members
of both these parties are equally de
termined to support the government
in asserting the supremacy of the civil

ROME. Aug. 1. One hour after pre
senting the note of Premier Canalejas
to the Vatican, officially announcing
that Marquis de Ojeda had been "called
to Madrid for a communication with
the government." the Spanish Ambas
sador to the Vatican left Rome. This
was early this morning. As yet, no
retaliatory measures have been taken
by the church and Monslgnor Vtco still
remains In Madrid as papal nuncio.
The statement Issued by Premier
Canalejas yesterday bearing on the
controversy between the church and
the state has been carefully perused
by the Vatican officials. They assert
that that part of the statement in
which It is declared that the Holy See
Intended to concede to the Spanish
government less than what was agreed
to In ISO 4. Is without foundation in
tact.
It Is Canalejas. they declare, who
now wants greater concessions than
those of 1D04 on the plea that they
were granted to the then Premier
Maura and that Canalejas "believed
.them to be at that time insufficient.

Just returned from a trip through Spain

dustrial conditions in Spain:
"They are Improving, but the wider
the split between the government and
the Vatican becomes the more rapidly
they will improve. New methods both
of business and agriculture have been
Introduced, particularly in Southern
Spain, and the country would forge
ahead It it could shake off the clerical
influence. But ths government has a
tidy little fight on its hands in Its

Durham, a discharged member of the
Fire Department, nred a bullet Into his
brain which ended a manhunt begun at 1
o'clock this morning, when he mortally

bleeding form In the plaza, although a
search was immediately instituted.

Chief of Police AJmgren, at ah early

OREGON AND WASHINGTON SEE
MUCH WORK IN YEAR.
Interstate Commerce Commission's
Report Shows 1,500,000 Em
ployed on Railroads.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 1. Washington.
Idaho. Oregon and Montana are among
the 11 states of the Cnlon where railroad
building was most active during the fiscal
year ending June 30. 1909, according to
the preliminary abstract of the annual
statistical report of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, soon to be Issued In
full.
This report shows that on June SO. 1909.
there was a total single-track railway
mileage In the United States of 236.8SS
miles, an Increase of 3215 miles over the
previous year. Complete returns were
made to the Commission on 235,402 miles
of line operated, the aggregate mileage
of all kinds covered by operating returns
being S24.361. This consisted of 235.408
miles of single track. 20.94 miles of sec
ond track. . 2160 miles of third track, 1435
miles of fourth track, and S27 miles of

HIS WIPE BOTH SERIOUSLY ILL
yard tracks and sidings. The total mile
age operated exceeded that of the pre
vious year by 8705 miles. In all 2196 roads
are covered by the Commission's report.
The statistical report will show that
there were 57,212 locomotives in service on
June 30, 1909. an increase of 479 over the
same date in the preceding year. Of the
total number, 13,317 were passenger en
gines, 33.935 freight engines. 8S07 switching
engines, and 1123 unclassified.
The total number of cars In use on that
date was 2.21S.2S0. or 12.901 less than on
June 30, 1908. This decline may in part
explain the car shortage .that was felt in
the West, for the great bulk of the cars
reported. 2,073,606, to be exact, were freight
cars. 45.584 were passenger cars, and 99,090
were cars in the company's service. The
figures given do not include so-called pri
vate cars of commercial firms or corpora
tions. The total number of persons reported
as employed on the payrolls of the
steam roads of the United States, June
30. 1909. was 1,502,823, an average of 638
per 100 miles of line. This Is an increase
of 66,548 for the year. Wages and salaries
reported as paid these employes during
the fiscal year amounted to S9S8.323.694.
On June 30. 1909, the par value of the
amount of railroad capital outstanding,
according to the returns of the com
panies, was 117.487,868.935. Of this amount.
113.711. 867,733 was outstanding In the hands
of the public, representing a capitalization
of 159,529 per mile of road. Of the total
capital outstanding, there existed aa stock

L
Champagne Cooler Is Behind
Tragedy of Army Life.
AMES CASE BADLY TANGLED
Suicide of One Offlcr and Host of
Courts-Martial Incidents in Scan'
dal Chaplain Who Criti
cises Is Tried, Too.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 1. Three or
four courts-martial, with the story of
a champagne cooler behind them all
may be brought to a close this week,
when the , verdicts are recorded with
the War Department. Grouped, they
form a tragic account of. Army life in
the Philippines.
The trouble started with the suicide
of Lieutenant Clarence M. Janney, in
the Philippines. Lieutenant-Colonel
Robert F. Ames, of the 12th Infantry,
was court-martialed after an investi
cation of the death of Janney.
Janney shot himself after a quarrel
with his wife during a dinner wnere
the two were guests of Ames. The
quarrel was said to have started over
the discovery by Janney that his wife
had given Ames a champagne cooler
that belonged to Janney. Newspaper
reports are that Ames has been re
leased from arrest and has resumed
his command, but that a rumor is cur
rent In Manila that he was reduced 12
numbers.
Chanlaln John E. Dallam, of the
12th Infantry, has been court-mar
tlaled twice as an Indirect result of the
quarrel at Ames' quarters. He was
first brought before a court for criti
cising Captain F. B. Wickham for what
the Chaplain regarded as a failure to
intervene In the disturbance at Ames
house. The Chaplain was reprimanded
"I shall do my professional duty un
deterred by any authority under the
sun and entirely regardless or ranit
and without respect of persons," the
Chaplain is reported to have said fol
lowing his court-martiaL He was or
dered before another court-cartial.
For indorsing in the newspapers the
cause of Chaplain Dallam, Colonel w
H. C. Bowen, also of the 12th Infantry,
was ordered before a court-martial.
The findings of these courts will
probably be received in Washington
this week.

MINERS' STRIKE IS 0,!i
NEGOTIATIONS OF WAGE SCALE
IN SOUTHWEST AT END.
30,000 Men Have Not Worked Since
April and Cessation of Conference
Makes Walkout Formal.
' KANSAS CITY, Aug. 1. Negotiations
between miners and coal operators of
the Southwestern territory, which have
dragged along over a period of exactly
four months, were brought to an end
today. A geweral strike order will be
issued immediately, according to
George Manuel, secretary of the Mis
souri district. 30,000 or more min
ers, who have not worked since the
expiration of the old contract, April 1,
will be formally on stride..
The conclusion of negotiations came
after the miners had been in session
the greater part of the day and bad
waited for the operators to agree to
their proposition to hold a joint ses
sion on a wage scale. But the opera
tors held that neither the operators
nor the miners could demand a Joint
meeting and would make no conces
sions. Of the number of miners affected
by the strike order, about 9500 are in
Kansas, about 8500 in Missouri, 9000
in Oklahoma and about 6000 in Ar
kansas. Some 5000 miners In Texas,
though in another district, will be in
directly affected by the strike order,
and this, too, will have an Indirect
bearing upon the miners in Colorado
and other Western States.
