Washington, March 26. The mem
bers of the committee on legislation
appointed at the Indianapolis mone
tary convention of lastsumcner called
on Speaker Reed today, and talked
with him concerning legislation for
currency and banking reform, ine
spokesmen of tho delegation were Geo
Foster Feabody, of New YorK; John
P. Irish, of San Francisco; and II. H
Manna, of Indianapolis.
They spoke of the desirability of the
passing- of a bill authorizing the presl
dent to appoint a commission "to inves
tigate the banking and currency syS'
tem of the country atid recommend
changes. If any bill embodying a sys
tem acceptable to the business inter
ests of the country could be passed
they would endorse such legislation
without creating any commission.
The ne-d of changes in the present
banking system which would insure a
mere plentiful and elastic supply of
circulation for the farming districts re
mote from the cities was the principal
point they urged in support of their
movement.
Heed told the committee the passage
of a tariff bill was the first and princi
pal work cut out for this session of
congress. (Jongress moved taster man
people in matters of legislation, he
said, and when public sentiment be
came crystallized in favor of any par
ticular form of financial legislation,
congress would be apt to respond with
little delay. If the people demanded
changes in the banking system and
brought pressure to bear on congress,
they would secure the changes.

ITS EFFECT FAR-BEACHING.
Trans-Mlssourl Decision a Vital Blow to
all Trusts."
New York, March, 26. The far-
reaching effect of the Unitad States
euDreme court's decision in the Trans
Missouri Freight .Association ja be
ginning to dawn upon persons in
terested in pools and combinations of
various sorts. The view grows general
that the supreme court has' struck a
vital blow at every form of trust and
combination under the terms of Sher
man anti -trust law, which is sustained
by the decision. -
They say the combination among
the anthracite coal producing and car
rying companies, sommonly called the
coal trust, is illegal. It is claimed that
freights on hard coal are the highest
on any commodity in the country.
This toll is fixed by the sombination.
Another big combine which it is
caime(j runs counter to this decision
of tbe supreme court is the pooling ar
rangements' between the . General
Electric and tbe Westingbouse com'
pun 163.
Frederick Whiteridge, counsel for
tbe reorganization committee of tbe
Reading railroad, said:
"If it is a penal offense, under the
Sherman anti-trust "law for railroads to
pool traffic, how about tbe labor organ
izations tbe Knights of Labor, tbe
American Railway Union, the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers, and
the firemen and other labor, organiza
tions?" If you have ever seen a child in the
agony of croup, you can appreciate the
gratitude of the mothers who know

Greenville, Miss., March 27. The
citizens of Greenville and surrounding
country abandoned their usual voca

Railroad Commissioner Evans., and
railroad officers. In response to a call
from the governor, special trains were
4n run over the Southern railway an
tne Yazoo & Mississippi vauey roau
carrying about 000 men. These forces
were divided into squads and put to
work under competent engineers. The
levees are intict all along the line i
this vicinity, but as the river is still
rising, the danger it great.

"The gauges along the river from
Memphis to Vicksburg give a flood
reading varying from 11-3 to 3 feet
above anv previously recorded read
ings. The feeliug everywhere is one
of uneasiness. All the state levee
boards are battling against the rising
floods regardless of cost. As yet no
widely spread damage has been re
ported, though several breaks in levees
above Greenville, on both banks, have
occurred. The levees are seriously
strained at all points."

LONDON, March 23. The Daily

wired to the ' Italian government to
send immediately a large land force,
which is imperatively necessary to
cope with the Crete n insurgents. Ad'
miral Canaviro, it is said, asserts that
conditions in the interior of the island
are so terrible as the result of famine
that even the lepers are leaving the
lazar house; the inhabitants are panic-
tricken, and the dead lie by the road
side unburied.
It is surprising what a "wee bit of a
thing" can accomplish. Sick bead

stomuch, dizziness, are quickly ban-
shed by DeWitt s Little Early Risers.

down trees or splitting them asunder
with terrific force. Several electric
towers were blown down, and quke a
number of houses in the residence por

ctses of narrow tasup s from death are
reported.
The new unoccupied residence of
Burt McDonald was blown down, strik

building. Two children who were in
th room playing narrowly escaped.
Tbe roofs of a number of residences
were torn off, and in addition to doing
much damage to tbe state university,
the wind blew' off the entire roof of
tbe adjoining dormitory. Great dam
age was done to the built ing, and the
property of tho "200 students therein,

. .Washington, March 27. The mem

pointed, by the-monetary conference at
IndianapolU some weeks ago had an
interview with Secretary Gage today
at the treasury department. Tbe com
mittee, which was headed by the chair

H. H. Hanna, of Indianapolis,
discussed with the secretary the ques

tlon of the probability of congress at
once authorizing the appointment of a
monetary commission on the revision
of our monetary system, as recom
mended by the Indianapolis confer
ence, and also by President McKinley
in his inaugural message.
. Mr. Gage expressed himself as fully
convinced of the necessity for such a
commission, and he thought that no
good could result from delaying its ap
pointment. Business throughout the
country was greatly depressed, and, in
his opinion, there should be no delay
in taking measures far tho general re
lief. There was, however, be said, iu
some quarters, 3erious doubt of the ex
pediency of allowing legislation of any
character whatever 'to interfere 'with
the consideration and prompt passage
of a tariff measure.
It is understood- that the bouse is
reudy atany time to carry out the
president's views as to a monetary
commission and a revision of our mon
etary system. In the senate, however,
it said there is likely to be opposition
to speedy action.

Collapse of the United Preys and Victory
For the Associated Press.
New York, March 29. The World
prints the following accounts of the
fall of the United Press:
The New York Herald, the Tribune,
the Times and the Evening Telegram
withdrew from the United Press yes
terday and signed 90-year contracts
for the news of tbe Associated Press.
An hour later the Philadelphia Record,
Ledger and Telegraph, also deserted
the United Press and joined tbe As
sociated Press. This means the ab
solute collapse of tbo United Press, its
disappearance, its annihilation.
The downfall of the ' United Press
marks the end of what was intended to
be "a great news trust," which was ex
pected by its projectors to control the
dissemination of news in the United
States and strangle such publications
as would not bow to lis will.
The triumph of the Associated Press,
is on the contrary, a victory for honest
co-operation in news gathering and
distributioa nnder a system which en
titles each member cf the association
to a free held aud no favors, and made
every newspaper morally responsible
for tbo accuracy of tbe news furnished.

ClvilU-d Methods of the Whltaa Object
to by Hlanket Indiana,
Capt. Constant Williams,- of the
Seventh infantry, forwarded i to the
headq uarters of the department of Col
ora.lo the particulars of the trouble with
the Moqui Indians. The Moqui Indians
re few in number, and dwell in the
mountains of Arizona, about one hun
dred and fifty miles from Fort Win
gate, the nearest military post. They
are a peaceful and industrious tribe,
but ignorant of all matters outside of
their own little villages. It is even said
they believe they are the only people
in the world with the exception of four
companies of United States cavalry
that appeared on the occasion of their
last outbreak. - Gov. Solomai obtained
some progressive ideas from a visit to
Washington with two other Moquia
about ten years ago. On his return be
described the immense numbers of peo
ple, the railroads and gigantic build
ings he had seen. The Indians, think
ing he was crazy, placed him ia con
Snement for some time. " Solomai" haa
sever abandoned his desire for reform,
and has quietly gathered about him
followers that comprise about one
third of the M oquis. Capt Williams,
to ascertain the cause of the disturb
ince, visited the villages, and fonnd
that it arose from a second attempt of
Solomai to adopt the customs of the
palefaces. A meeting of the two fac
tions was held in the 6quare of the vil
'.agc, and the chiefs of the contending
Factions stated their case. Gov. Solo-
nai said he wanted his children to go
whool and be brought tip as white
:hildren are; When he and the others
nod done this the hostiles had raised
objections, had seized some of their
cornfields, and threatened to seize
others. They had even gone so far as
to threaten to expel them from the
town. So Solomai had asked for the
:avalry to be sent. The hostiles num
bered about two-thirds of the tribe,
and they were led by one Lomahun-
gyoma. They were op posed to progress
of any kind, anu wanted to follow in
the steps of their forefathers.
After Solomai had finished his speech
their chief rose to reply. He subs tan
tially admitted the truth of Solomai 'a
statement, saying that he and his fol
lowers did not want to be civilized or
have their children go to school, or to
wear white men's clothing or to eat
white men's food. They had seized the
fields at Moencopce because they had
belonged to them in former years and
had been unlaw fully taken away. Ia
the spring he intended -to take away
more of the fields of the followers of
Solomai. He also added that the diffi
culty could be settled in no other way
than by the coming of United State
troops. Therefore, Capt. Williams said
that he had deemed it necessary to ask
for two troops of the United States cav
alry to be sent there. It is believed
that the trouble will be over in a few
days, but it will take some time for the
news to arrive, as the Indians are a
sonsiderable distance from any town.
Army officers say that they are the
most religious people in the world1
and honorable and upright in all their
dealings. They speak a language of

P- THE VANISHING MOOSE.
Sapartnr of New York's Uai
Unknown.
a for Part
A deer, when started by a hunter or
driven by hounds, usually returns in a
few days to the same hill or mountain
side where he was first found; but a
moose, says Madison Grant ' in tho
Century, when once thoroughly
alarmed, will start on a long, swinging1
walk, and, taking with him his entires
family, leave for good. It is one of tho
greatest difficulties and there era
many in still-hunting this animal. L
avoid getting him under way, for then
the hunter may as well break camp
and try other fields, since not a moosa
will be found within miles. Ther
scent a moccasin track or the smoke of
a fire at an incredible distance. A
fresh trail may be found one day and
arrangements made to follow itat dnv-
break on the morrow. During the
night the moose, returning to his old
haunts, detects the danger-signs, and
all the hunters find in the morning is a
trail six or eight hours old leading for
parts unknown in an almost perfectly,
straight line. The moose is at that
moment, perhaps, twenty miles off an& '
still going.
Aitnougu moose cannot be driven to
water by hounds like a deer, but will"
turn savagely to bay, still they wilf
not remain in a locality where doers are "
running; so that when the white hunt
ers became numerous in the Norths
woods, and especially when thev intro
duced hounding; the moose simply left
the country and passed either cast
ward to Maine or northward to
Canada.
It is a well-authenticated but little-
known fact that they practically left
in one season. They were numerous
in the Adirondacks, especially in -Brown's
tract a large district In what
is now the southwestern part of tho
wilderness until the period between
1850 and 1855 (probably near the latter
year), when they suddenly disap
peared. Before this several had been
killed yearly. Scattered . ones were -shot
latert but 1855 marked their exit '
from the annals of New York game. !
Years later, four or five were brought
back to Saranac, but would not stay.
Ths Uovss Consul.
The most honorable .office in the Co- '
man republic was that of consul.
There were always two elected every
year, one each from the patricians and.
plebeians. The consul must be at
least forty-three years old and must
have held the office of quaestor, aedllo
praetor. The consuls were the heads .
of the republic, discharging all public
functions, such as receiving ambassa
dors or assembling the senate. Their
insignia were those of a king except a
crown. They were always attended. '
each by twelve lictors or servants,,
bearing the boxes or bundles of
rods with an ax in the center. The lie-
tors, however, proceeded only one at a
time, the lictors of the other following
him. The year was named after them.
and any laws passed at their recom
mendation also went by their names.
They commanded the armies of the re- .
public, ond when both were with the '
same army they commanded on alter-'
nate days. Under the emperors the of-
jQce became an empty honor, though
surrounded with much greater state.
