CHICAGO, ILL. SENATE PASSES ALDRICH BILL Measure Authorises Deposits of Custom Receipts in National Banks. PROVIDES , FOR MORE SMALLER BILLS . iatilmeai Requiring Banks to Pay Interest on Government Deposits 1 Is Defeated Conference Reports Adopted. WASHINGTON, Feb. 26. The senate to day passed the sundry civil appropriation bill carrying 114,0u0,00O. It also passed the Aldrich currency bill by a vote of 43 to 14. The currency bill authorises the is suance of 110 gold certificate to the end that the S10 greenbacks may be broken up Into H. $2, t& bills, for which there Is a great demand. It also authorises the deposit of customs receipts In national banks as Internal revenue receipts are now deposited. It raises from W.OOO.OOO to $9,000, 000 the amount of national bank circula tion that may be retired In any one' month. The Nelson amendment requiring national banks to pay Interest on government de posits was defeated by a vote of 43 to 17. Conference reports were adopted on the naval, army, fortification and the District of Columbia appropriation bill. The con ference report on the bill allowing the government the right of appeal In criminal oases was agreed to, as was also that on a bill opening for settlement 1,000,000 acres of the Kosebud Indian reservation In South Dakota. Cnrreaer Bill Called Is. Senator Aldrich called up bis. currency bill In the senate at 2 o'clock. Sir. Culberson presented a general objec tion to the system which resulted In the accumulation of such large amounts of government funds. "The root of the evil Is high taxes and extravagance," he said. The retirement rolls of the army and navy were, he declared, being "padded;" brig adier generals were found on the retired list thicker than the leaves of autumn, placed In that rank simply for the pur pose of Increasing their pay. The federal government was year by year reaching out Into the realm of the states and thus add 'lng expenditures, lie said that In the last four years the Increase In national ex penditures had amounted to U6,0U0,000. "Our revenues during that time have In creased 1111.000,000," interjected Mr. Al drich, who added: "Not a very bad busl nesa What remedy does the senator pro poser "Amon oUer things we can reduce the tariff,", answered Mr. Culberson. ' The bill was endorsed by Mr. Spooner, who ''opposed Mr. Nelson's proposition re quiring the banks to pay interest on gov ernment dt'povlts,' as the money deposited was still government money., "Whose money Is it when It is loaned out to stock gamblers who pay the banks In terest r- asked Mr. Nelson. ' This led Mr. Spooner Into a statement that there would always be more or less speculation In securities.' but this did not change his contention that the gSvernment money should not be loaned .eut when on deposit' with banks. Mr. Spooner also combatted the provision In the Nelson amendment which authorises the secretary of the treasury to receive other than government bonds as security for such deposits In national banks. Mr. Newlands drew from Mr. Aldrich the admission that there was a greater demand for subsidiary silver coins than was sup. plied. Mr. Newlands expressed the hope that the secretary of the treasury would coin $10,000,000 a year In silver coins In stead of $6,000,000. This would, he said, support the price of silver, which, he said, had risen from GO to 70 cents an ounce without any government assistance. He wished to see It at Us normal price of $1.2 an ounce. The cry In 1896 had been, he declared, that nothing was to be con sidered except the quality of our money. Now the cry was that the quality was ade quate, but that the quantity was Insuffi cient Mr. Newlands did not oppose the bill. Mr. Nelson's amendment requiring Inter est to be paid on deposits was defeated as was also an amendment by Mr. Stone that the Interest on deposits be 1H per cent. A roll call resulted In the passage of the bill, 43 to 11 Those opposing were Sena tors Bacon, Berry, Blackburn, Clay, Cul berson, . Dubois, Frailer, LaFollette, Mc Creary, McLauren, Mallory, Pettus, Stone and Newlanda, PROCEEDINGS OF THE HOt'SR De- Sesslon Occapled with General bate on Ship Subsidy BUI. WASHINGTON. Feb. 28.-General debate en the so-called ship subsidy bill con tinued throughout the day In the house. The rule limiting the general debate to Ave hours was by unanimous consent amended so that general aebate shall run through tomorrow with a night session from 8 to 11 o'clock, when the debate will terminate. Mr. Grosvenor of Ohio ' '.vss the principal champion of the bill. The conference report on the fortifica tions bill and the omnibus revenue cutter bill were adopted. The conference committee reports on ths army appropriation bill and the rivers and harbors bill were presented. Conferees were appointed In the postof floe appropriation bill after an Ineffectual effort had been made to recede and con cur in certain senate amendments relating to the pay of rural letter carriers and railway mall employes. Two veto messages of the house hills were received from the president, one of them disapproving of the Kiowa town site bill and the other a bill for the relief of a civilian who served In the civil war. General debate on the ship subsidy bill was had today In the house. Representative Grosvenor of Ohio opening the discussion with a brief statement as to ths merits of the house substitute for the senate bill. In answer to a charge made yesterday by Mr. Hlnshaw of Nebraska that there had npt been a single vessel added to our merchant marine since the passage of the mall sub vention act of 1891 and that the vessels get ting a bonus from this country themselves carry merchandise to no greater extent, Mr. Qrosvenor Insisted that Mr. Hlnshaw was wholly misinformed. He declared that since the passage of the mall subvention act the International Mercantile company had built ten vessels, many of them with a speed of twenty knota Mr. Llttauer of vNew Tork argued in favor of the bill bearing his name. He J. J. Hill had not a ship that would come In under the bill, as this bill provides for slxteen-knot ships and the HU1 ships have a rpeed capacity of fourteen knots. If the Pacific Mall (Harrlman's lines) should accept the subsidy, Mr. Littauer said, it would mean the tulldlng of at least one and probably two slxteen-knot ships, together with regular communication be tween San Francisco and the Philippines. Mr. Goulden of New York In opposition to the bill said that labor was against the bill, as was the National Grange. He ssjd that back in the Forty-fourth congress there had been charges made of the use of a large amount of money for lobbying purposes. ' "Oh, that's a last year's bird's nest," in terrupted Mr. Kahn of California, Mr. Goulden, however, declared that during the years he had been in congress he has rec ognised the presence of a powerful lobby for ship subsidy.

Lett Handed Batter and Weak Aaralast Sonthpaws. Manager Connie Mack of the Philadelphia Athletics, who is credited by Phlladelphlans with possessing more real base ball acumen than any manager In the business, has Just . made the announcement that h In tends to win the American league pennant next season by the ability of bis team to hit lefthand pitching. Mack gave this as his reason, last week, ror releasing Out fielder Armbruster. according to the Cin cinnati Commercial-Tribune. He said: "Armbruster Is a good ball player. In time he may become great, but right now he Is good enough for any club in the American league. My reason for letting him go was founded on the fact that he Is a left-handed batsman and Is weak against the left-handed pitchers that abound In the Amerlciui league. A couple of left handed batters are all right, but threeof them are dangerous, and, more than that, places a terrific handicap on a club. To win a pennant a club must not be at the mercy of a southpaw, for there are too many of them In the ranks of the other clubs." Topsy, Hartsel is the only left-hander among the regular players of the Athletic s staff. It Is now said that Mack let out Danny Hoffman In llu6 for the same reason because be hits from the port side of the rubber. Mark's statement has started another discussion among the fans on the "south paw peril." A glance over the records of the batters of the past and present day shows that many left-hand batsmen were. It anything, more effective against the southpaw twtrlers than against the right handers. There are shining examples of this In the batting records for luuti of the American league. Of the batsmen who finished In the .800 ciaas stone or at. Louts, the leader: Con. gallon, Flick and Hossman of Cleveland: Cobb of Detroit and Keeler of- New Tork, are left-hand batters. Sam Crawford of Detroit Is close up with .296 per cent. Of tnese stone and Keeler will do as exampl of effectiveness against their southpaw enemies on the firlns line. Stone finished the season with an average of .968 per cent, tied with Nig Clarke of Cleveland, a right-hand hitter. Against Plank and Waddell of the Athletics, White and Alt rock of the White Sox, TannehlU of Boston, Hess of Cleveland, Newton and Hahn of New York, and Kllllan of Detroit, left-hand pitchers, his batting average for m eaon was .su per cent. Keeler finished the season with '.104 pee cent. Against the same pitchers his work tor me season snows .320 per cent. Ned Han Ion. who has kept close tab on Willis Keller's work since ISAM, claims the Highlander has always been better against left-hand than right-band pitchers. While Connie Mack holds to this theory, many other managers who have landed pennants seek the left-handed swatter Instead of set ting mm aanrt. Attention has been called to the fact that the world's champion White Sox have no lass than six left-handed batsmen In thslr lineup, including Jones, Donahue, IsbelL Dougherty, Hahn and George Da via To be exact, the number should be tlvs and a half, because Davis bats equally well from either side of the Dlata fitllL thare la the fact that the While Box did not win the pennant by batting, but by fielding, pitch, lug base running and handwork.

THAW'S ORDEAL 6Mi Wife of Defendant Given Opportunity to Clear Up Some Odes and Ends. NEARLY FIVE DAYS ON WITNESS STAND Aha Rsmsael Is Not Allowed te Identify Cony of Affidavit Insanity Experts Come Today. NEW TORK. Feb. . Mrs. Evelyn Nes- hlt Thaw's long ordeal on the witness stand at the trial of her husband for the killing of Stanford White, ended today. Mr. Jerome finished bis cross examination which has lasted through nearly five court days, at the morning session. The re-direct and re-cross examinations this afternoon were brief. The district attorney will tomorrow morn ing begin his cross examination of Dr. Brltton D. Evans, one of the defense's alienists.. Drs. Wagner, Deemar and Blng aman will be called In rapid order. The trial at last seems to be entering on Its flnal stages. The completion of Mrs. Thaw's examina tion followed the unsuccessful efforts of the prosecution to draw from Abraham Hum mel certain facts relating to the affidavit which Mrs. Thaw Is said to have made in Hummel's law office. In this affidavit It Is declared there was an allegation that Thaw had beaten the girl while abroad In 1908, when she told him there was no truth In the story about her relations with Stan ford White. Ilammel Testimony Blocked. Mr. Delmas, for the defense, blocked practically every question put to' Hummel, The witness got no further than to say he knew Mrs. Thaw, that she came to his office October "27, 1908, and that he dictated to a stenographer while she was there. Justice Fltxger&ld held that under the rules of evidence covering Mrs. Thaw's testimony the Introduction of ' collateral facts were not permissible. The district attorney Is not allowed to controvert her testimony In any way, but may test her credibility. Mr. Jerome said In open court that he realized that even If he could show Stanford White was In Europe the night Mrs. Thaw declares she was assaulted by him he wogld not be allowed to introduce such evidence. Mr. Jerome has much tes timony to offer in rebuttal, but as It Is nearly all of a collateral nature he will not be allowed to place it before the jury. Odds and Ends Cleared l'p. Mrs. Thaw today was given the oppor tunity to clear up the odds and ends of her story. Mr. Jerome lntioduced In evi dence her schoolgirl diary and read certain extracts from It- They caused many miles In the court room, reflecting as they did the young woman's views of life dur ing that period. Mrs. Thaw denied again that she had ever used a penny of the letter of credit Stanford White gave to her under seal before she went to Europe with Thaw and her mother; She denied that she had ever been mentioned In any way In connection with the James A. Oar land divorce case. She said Stanford White paid all her brother's school expenses and Identified receipts , and checks signed by her mother showing that the latter drew more than $3,000 from Stanford White's funds during the year from May, 1902,. to May, 1903. Evelyn was at school during most of this time. Just before Harry Thaw was taken out of the court room he handed the report ers the following note: Mrs. Thaw and Mady Ashburton, for merly Frances Belmont, were not friends. They were simply acquaintances when both were playing at the same theater." Holman Makes Statement. PITTSBURG, ' Feb. 26.-Charles .J.. Hol man Issued a statement today In behalf of his wife, mother of Mrs. Evelyn Nesblt Thaw, concerning young Mrs. Thaw's early training. Holman denies that his wife gave District Attorney ' Jerome a statement or that Mr. Jerome used a statement from Mrs. Holman with which to embarrass young Mrs. Thaw on the statement. The statement says: Evelvn wss alwavs sent to Sundas school as long as her mother had control of her. Her mother never left her daush ter In care of any man at any time.

NEW TORK, Feb. 28. Thomas Noonan, a factory watchman, was arrested today charged with shooting to death Philip Mo- Nally, night engineer In the factory where Noon was employed. Noonan admits the killing, but declares that hs acted In self defense. The trouble which led to the tragedy arose some time ago, when Noonan lost his position as watchman because of intemperance.- He had held McNally to ac count for the loss of his position, declaring be was discharged upon Information given' ths factory superintendent by the engineer. This wss denied by the superintendent. however, who told him that not only did McNally not report him, but that it was through the Intercession of thfl engineer that the watchman was later re-employed. The superintendent also said that part of the time when hs was Idle Noonan was sheltered In the home which McNally main tained for his three motherless children. Last night, according to the story given the police, Noonan had been drinking and went to the engineer and resumed the quarrel. Suddenly two shots were heard and McNally staggered out of the engine room and fell Into the arms of one of the factory employes. "Tom, the watchman hot me," he said. "Goodbye! For God's cutltles which he had appreciated In value and he could arrange for funds somewhere , else or dispose of some of It. Subsequently to that he sgsln. In January, 1904, de posited with the Commonwealth Trust company, the successor of the Trust Com pany of the Republic additional money to pad the statements of that trust company and continued to do various things of which I think I have said enough. They are matters of record, and can be taken up. "The trouble with Mr. Fish," said Mr. Harrlman, "was that he looked upon the Illinois Central as his personal property." He then told how Mr. Fish contracted for the construction of the Indianapolis At St. Louis railroad and committed the com pany without the consent or action of the board when the board had . previously ex pressed Its disapproval. Deal with Rockefeller. Kellogg traced the purchase of Southern pacific stock by the Union Paclflo and Ore gon Short . Line, carrying It down to the famous sale of SOO.000 shares to William Q. Rockefeller. Mr. Kellogg produced the Rockefeller letter already In evidence, "The sale was made on a reciprocal agreement with Mr. Rockefeller," said the witness, "by which Mr. Rockefeller could ell us the stock back on May 1, 1904, If he desired, at the same price, with Interest and a commission of of 1 per cent, and we could take It back. Mr. Rockefeller paid 16,000,000 In cash and we gave good collaterals. It was a conditional sale. - "The sales of Mr. Rockefeller," said the witness, "was a protective measure pure and simple. There had been formed a pool to speculate In Southern Paclflo stock. The pool had acquired 300,000 shares of stock, had appealed to the shareholders and courts and tried to get enough proxies to prevent us from contributing In the man agement of the property. The pool plan ned to sell Its own stock to advantage. We feared that they would get a temporary Injunction to prevent us from voting the stock. In order to prevent this we took this method to enable us, with other prox ies that we might obtain to secure votes enough to protect against this speculative interest. It was a purely protective measure." The witness then explained that entry of the accounts and records on the books of the Union Pacific. Mr. Harrlman frankly admitted that the transfer of the stock was to place It In the hands of some one who would act against this speculative pool. Pursuing this line, Mr. Kellogg endeav ored to have the witness admit that the Rockefeller transfer was merely an evasion, but Mr. Harrlman would not do so. The transaction was to protect the property, he Insisted, against a speculative raid that threatened the control. He admitted that Mr. Rockefeller was paid H per cent commission, or $187,500, on return of the stock. Rates on talon Paclflc. Attorney Kellogg devoted much time dur ing the day to an effort to establish the propositions that rates on the Union and the Southern Paclflo had remained fixed, if they had not Increased over a period of several years, during which time rates gen erally In the country had been reduced; that competition had been destroyed In the territory covered by the Union Pacific system; that the purchase of stock In the Santa Fe was a move toward the neatra.ll satlon of competition by that line, and that the vast sums devoted to betterments and dividends by the Union Paclflo had been taken from unfair rates. The witness was not willing to make any concessions or any material admissions to those contentions and most of the testi mony was discussion or argument between lawyer and witness as to the facts and conditions involved. Mr. Harrlman declared Union Paclflo rates had been reduced 17 per cent since he became president and In defens of his gneral policy he fll back on th assertion that the expenditures for improvement had developed the country and placed the sys tem In condition to handle the great traffic that has come in later year and that he and his stockholders were entitled to the benefits their enterprise had won. Mr. Harrlman then made a plea for some form of legislation which would permit railways to arrange for traffic handyng under supervision of some federal body as the Interstate Commerce commission . with proper regulation and limitations which would enable them to handle their business lawfully and Intelligently. He thought such a law permitting a combination of roads would possibly result la lower rates. HYMENEAL Cross-Mohr. Carl E.
