Report of Mr. Foa.
In introducing John A- Fox of Arkansas,
the special director of the congress. Presi
dent Dansdell said that Mr. Fox had spent
the last year In traveling over the country
and in doing splendid work for the congress.
In the course of his report Mr. Vox said
that during the last year he. had visited
twenty-six states and ninety-nine cities; had
given out forty-four publlo Interviews, writ
ten five magaalne articles and had delivered
16t addresses, none of which had been be
fore national organisations. He was satis
fied that If the United States eongTess were
In possession of the information which he
had presented the work of the congress
praptlcally would have been accomplished.
He urged the appropriation by the associa
tion of (40,000 for the continuance of its
work during the naxt year.
3. F. Ellison, secretary of the congress,
whom President Ransdell characterised as
"one of the finest workers and organisers
In the oountry," presented hl annual re
port. In which he gave the expenditures on
behalf of the work of congress during ths
last year. The balance on hand, he said
. was U.I7J.

J. Hampton Moore of Philadelphia, chair

Iness offered them and much loss results
from the congested condition of trafltc;
that according to high railroad authority
the business of the country has Increased
over 100 per cent within ten years, whlls
the facilities for handling it by rail have
been increased only about 20 per cent, and
aa the railroads cannot be expected In the
near future to increase their facilities suf
ficiently to relieve the situation such other
means of transportation should be pro
vided at once.
Third That transportation of hosvy com
modities by water on all rivers snd Inland
waterways Is much cheaper and usually
quicker than by rail;, that no country In
the world has been so blessed by nsture
with water courses as out own and that
If properly Improved and connected by
canals, , they would furnish convonlent
means of shipping enormous volumes of
freight, thereby relieving the congestion
on the railroads and furnishing cheap and
safe transportation for the benefit of the
producer and consumer.
Fourth-That the time has come when
the policy of the federal government to
ward waterways over which It rightfully
has supreme control should be more 11b
eial, persistent and oonst lentous than here
tofore; that as a reeult of Intermittent ac
tion meritorious works of Importance be
gun many years ago are still far from
complutlon; that appropriations for rivers,
wsterways and harbors havs been made at
Intervals of three years Instead of an
nually; that for the last ten years they
have averaged only about $3,000,000 a year,
cr leas than 1 per cent of the average an
nual expenditures of the gvernme,nt and
that enough money should be appropriated
each year for at least the next ten years,
properly to Improve the various rivers,
waterways and harbors on plans which
have been and shall be surveyed and st
SA' the government engineers and
Slates onress of the United
Pelley Not a Project.
Therefore, Be It resolved by the Na
tional Rivers and Harbors congress, at the
present session containing delegates of
IIVZ if 'da P'n'"n nd representing
every business Interest in the land, UuU-
fo.r "v101'" not 'or- project:
h1"!1"', , "-"eaetly urge the adop
l "..,,iy.Uia fd,rl overnmet!t of a wide.
1J . ffa comprehensive waterway policy
that will provide for the proper Improve
ment within the next ten years, of the
... .V naroor of our coun
try, the Improvement of which Is Justi
fied by present and prospective benefits to
commerce.
f00"! That without presuming to pre
scribe the engineering of the financial de
tails of this great undertaking, this con
gress a.t-ongly urges upon the congress
of Uie Unit States the Importance of
live immediate Adoption of a comprehensive
P in of waterway Improvement, of the car
rying on of tr.e work by an adequate
number of engtmers and of suoh liberal ap
propriations annually as will Insure the
early completion of such projects as may
b' undertaken.
Third That we cordially endorse the ac
tion cf Present Roosevelt in appointing a
special .r.utni waterways commission, be
ing confident that its report will prove a
source of accurate and valuable Informa
tion to ths American people. We further
recommend that congress enact such laws
ss will make the Inland waterways com
mission permanent and will provide It
with necessary authority for Its investiga
tions and recommendations
Fourth That this congress cordially
thanks President Roosevelt for the support
he has given to Its purposes by his speeches
and by his treatment of the subject In bis
recent message to congress.
Fifth That we ask congress To view the
river waterway and harbor appropriations
not as the appropriation of money for the
current expenses of government, but as
an Investment in permanent Improvements
bound to pay Increasing dividends from
year to- year. . .

Plttsbarg Natleaal Bank
Closes.
KANSAS CITT, Deo. 1 There were no
evidences ef a run on any of the local
banks in the early hours today. Officially
banks generally gave it as their opinion
that the crisis resulting from the failure
yesterday of the National Bank of Com
mere was ever and that normal conditions
would exist again. They Insisted that
there was no need for alarm and that the
closing of the National Bank of Commerce
really cleared the atmosphere and marked
the first real step toward a restoration of
confidence.
Many depositors cf the National Bank of
Commerce Ware reassured by the declara
tions of officials of that Institution that It
would not only pay depositors In full, but
that stockholders also would lose nothing.
James T. Bradley, appointed receiver yes
terday by the comptroller of currency, had
no statement to make this morning. Mr,
Brsaley was receiver and wound up the
affairs of ths First National bank of To
peka, Kan., which failed aa a result ot the
collapse of the enterprises of the late C
J. Devlin In 1M6. His success In managing
the affairs of that bank baa Inspired many
of the larger depositors of ths National
Bank of Commerce with the hope that he
will be able to realise the claims of the
bank's officials and pay out In full.
The failure of the National Bank of
Commerce had no apparent effect upon the
Commerce Trust company, whose president,
Dr. W. S. Woods, was also president of the
bank. Many depositors of the National
tank of Commerce have opened accounts
In the trust company, as well aa with other
local banks. W. F. Kemper, vice president
of the Commerce Trust company, said that
they had already -received close to 1300,000
ef new deposits from that source.
) Allied Bank Reesaas,
One of the three small banks In the
suburbs of Kansas City, affiliated with the
National Bank of Commerce that closed
late yesterday," the First Btate bank of
Argentine, Kan., reopened for business this
morning. The 1ank has deposits of
Quartet ef 'a' 'million dollars and W. Mtd-
dlekauff, Its cashier, says It Is' In a per
fee fly sound oohdltion. "We closed the
doors ' yesterday temporarily only so we
might post our books," said he. "We did
not have time to do this yesterday during
banking hours with our .limited force, and
this was the only reason for our closing.
Ws are receiving deposits and doing busi
ness aa Usual this morning."
J. Q. Royce, state bank examiner of
Kansas, who came' to Kansas City list
night, said: '
'The First. Bank of Argentine Is one of
the strongest In the state. There was no
necessity for the bank closing Its doors."
The First bank ef Argentine should not
be confused with the Argentine State bank.
The Argentine State bank did not close Its
doors and was conducting its business thin
morning In the usual manner, with no In
dications of the run. '
John Swanger, secretary of state of Mis
souri, nrt Siste Bank Uxamlner Cook ar
rived here today and took charge of the
Stock Tards Bank of Commerce and the
Union Avenue Bank of Commerce, the tw4
other small concerns that closed yester
day. An effort will be made td reopen
these banks at cnoe.

tnnnoe) on Bleak North Da
kota Plains.
A romanoe which started en the bleak
pralrloa of North Dakota culminated Thurs
day evening In Omaha when Miss Ella M.
Lowe was married to John F. Warner at
the home of and by Rev. Cbarlea W. Sav-
Idge.
The bride Is the daughter of N. H. Love
Of Stella, Neb. She spent her childhood In
Omaha where her parents were members
Of the People's church. They moved away
when ahe was a girl ef 10 years. Two or
three years ago the young woman went to
North Dakota and took up a claim near
Velva. .
Mr. Warner occupied an adjoining claim.
He had cows. Miss Lows had not yet ac
quired a cow. Bo he supplied her with
what milk she needed In her household.
Every day be brought her not violets like
the fellow in the song, but Just milk, plain,
fresh, rich, good milk, which, to tell the
plain truth, was doubtless more aooeptable
than violets would have been.
Both of the young people were away
from home and lonely. From A carrier of
milk the young man swiftly changed Into
k suitor for the hand of Miss Lowe. He
was self-reliant. Independent, Industrious,
Just the kind .of young man Miss Lowe
admired. . And so the path of love ran
smoothly. .. .
When It came to gatting married Miss
Losye remembered th pastor of her child
hood, and they decided to have Rev.
Charles W. Savldge tie the knot.
Mr. and Mrs. Warner will return to North
Dakota where they are going to grow up
with the country.

FUNSTON ORDERS MEN 10 CO
Eight Companies and Machine' Gam
Sent to Goldfleld.
SCENES OF ANARCHY FEARED
In Response t Appeal ot Governor
Sparks President Hoeevelt
Orders that Prompt Re
lief On Given.
WASHINGTON, Deo. ft. In compliance
with President Koossvelt's order. Brigadier
Oeneral Funston, commanding- the Depart
ment of California, has made preparations
to have troops started for the Qoldfleld,
Nov., mining district, where trouble Is
threatened because of the differences be
tween the miner and mine owners. Oen
eral Funston advises the War 'depart ment
that he has ordered four companies from
Port McDowell and four companies with
a machine gun platoon without animals
from Monterey, all of the Twenty-second
infantry, In command of Colonel Reynolds,
to gt to the disturbed district, and that
they will start today. The total strengh
of troops probably will not exceed 2M men
and General Funston says that In view ef
the Urge amount of property liable to, de
struction and the scattered condition ot the
same, he thinks It Is better to send the
troops enumerated Instead of a small de
tachment He says that If conditions are
such as to make It advisable he will go to
Qoldfleld himself. By rapid transit th
scene of the trouble can be reached In
about eighteen hours.
Situation Alarming;.
A situation of the utmost and Immediate
danger at Goldfleld, Nev., Is revealed In the
official correspondence between Governor
Sparks of. that stats, and ths presideDt,
Just made public. The governor's appeal
for troops Is construed by the authorities
here to Indicate the imminence of great
peril and If actual vloleno is to occur at
all. It is expected before the arrival of the
troops from California In Goldfleld.
In response to Governor Spark's appeal
President Roosevelt issued the following
order:
To Acting Secretary of War: Referring
to the accompanying formal request of
Governor Sparks of Nevada for federal
troops to restore order at Ouldfteld, iileaaa
dliet t General Fuuatoa to send a aufflulent
number of troops to be wholly adequate to
meet any emergency. It is far better to
avoid conflict by sending too many troops
than by sending too few to run the risk of
U.vltlng bloodshed.
