Chairman Houston of the house census

house agreed to bothprovide for Initiative

COTTON BILL IX TUB SENATE
Committee Is Instructed to Report by
Nest Thursday.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. The house cot
ton tariff revision bill reached the senate
today and on motion of Democratic Leader
Martin was referred to the finance com
mittee by a vote of 38 to W, with Instruc
tions to report It back by August 10. The
arrival of the bill from the house, where it
was passed list night, precipitated a lively
debate. .
Chairman Penrose of the finance com
mittee announced the committee would
meet tomorrow. "We will not wait until
the 10th to report the cotton bill," he said,
"but will take It up and report It Immedl.
tely. We wilt bring it back tomorrow,
and If conditions seem right I shall ask
that an early day be fixed for vote by
the senate."
The farmers' free list bill was sent to
conference today by the senate after re
fusing to acoept the house amendment
placing lemons on the free list.' Senators
Penrose, Cullom, La Follette, Balloy and
Simmons were named conferees. They are
also on the wool bill conference, of which
the free list conference will be virtually
an extension. '
Despite differing opinions as to what
effect the senate's Instructions to the fi
nance committee to report the cotton tariff
revision bill will have upon tho early ad
journment of congress nearly all the sen
ators, and representatives as well, arc. anx
ious to get away, and it Is apparent that
It will be almost Impossible to hold a
quorum after the president vetoes the wool
tariff bill, as he is expected to do early
next week.
Bursting Water Main
Floods Chicago Hotel
Court House and Number of Adjoining
Skyicraperi Deluged Damage
Will Amount to Thousands.
CHICAGO, Aug. 4.-Uy the breaking of a
thirty-inch water main, the court house,
one of the principal hotels and adjoining
kyscrappers received a flooding today that
did thousands of dollars worth of damage
and attracted hundreds or ixrsons to the
scene. Randolph street, part of the so
called Rlalto here, suffered the worst from
the torrent. Most of the damage was done
to the costly rugs and other accessories of
a fashlonuble restaurant which occupies a
basement.
One of the picturesque sights resulting
from the flood was In a hotel, where many
employes, chiefly women, were kept busy
at property rescue work In water whtcii
rose above the shoe tops of the workers. It
so happened also that the person la com
mand of the force was the assistant chief
housekeeper, a woman.
The feminine brigade, apparently Indif
ferent alike to the flood and to the cheers
of the enthusiastic onlookers, kept out in
the tide until after an hour and a half a
gang of men arrived from the city pumping
station In a distant portion of the city.

WILEY ONLY TO IN MACHINE
Chemist is Stripped of His Power to
Order Prosecutions.
ORDER 110 MAY BECOME FAMOUS
Chemists Now Collect Samples and
Send Facts to Solicitor Mefsbe,
Who Makes Heeommenda
tlons to Secretary.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-George P. Mc
Cabe, solicitor of the Department of Agri
culture, testified today before the house
Investigating committee that It was on his
recommendation, and not Dr. Wiley's, that
all prosecutions for violations of the pure
food law were ordered or refused by the
eecretary of agriculture.
The extent to which Dr. Wiley, the gov
ernment s chief chemist, whom Attorney
General Wlckersham has recommended for
removal. Is overruled in the matter of
prosecutions, and tenure of the charges
which have been brought against htm by
the department '"personnel board" were
the basis for an Interesting session here
today, terminating with the cross-examination
of Mr. McCabe by Dr. Wiley's coun
sel, Henry E. Davis.
The food and drugs Inspection board, of
which Dr. Wiley, Dr. Dunlop and Mr. Mc
Cabe were the members and which
formerly determined what prosecutions
wero to be made, has virtually ceased to
exercise any control over these matters,
said Mr. McCabe. This was done by "gen
eral order 110," which promises to become
famous before the present Investigation of
the Agricultural department Is ended.
Wiley Without Authority.
"Has Dr. Wiley any authority whatever
now to recommend prosecution for viola
tions of the pure food law?" asked Mr.
Davis.
"The bureau of ohemlstry collects the
samples, makes the examinations and then
sends ths case to me," said Mr. McCabe.
"Isn't It a fact that tho whole matter Is
passed up to you and that you determine
whether there shall be any prosecutions?"
"I recommend to the secretary what shall
be done."
Chairman Moss asked Solicitor McCabe
whether there was in the Agricultural de
partment a "permanent abeyance register."
Mr. McCabe said he did not know,
Mr. McCabe testified that since July 1,
1910, he had passed on ail recommendations
of Dr. Wiley and the bureau of chemistry
for prosecutions of violators of tho pure
food law. In the last year, said Mr. Mo
Cabe. he had recommended further pro
ceedings In 3.150 cases passed on by the
bureau of chemistry, while in (61 cases
where Dr. Wiley's bureau wanted further
nrtlon he recommended that the cases be
not pushed because of lack of evidence or
other reasons.

SIMON SAILSJOR KINGSTON
Deposed President of Haiti Follows
Predecessor Into Exile.
GRAVE FEARS OF A CONFLICT
Followers of Flrmla and I,eeone Are
ta the Capital aad Bloodshed In
Strife Over the Preeldeney
Is rrobahle.
PORT AU PRINCE. Aug. 4.-Generel
Simon sailed last night for Kingston.
Jamaica, the refugees of Haiti's fallen
heroes as the warship 17 Decembre which
took Its name from the day that he was
unanimously elected president of the Black
republic, boomed a doleful farewell. He
followed In the wake of Nord Alexis, whom
he overthrew In the last month of 1! ano
ho leaves the capital In the possession of
General Clncmnatus Leconte, whom he had
driven to exllo with his deposed chief and
General Antcnor Flrmin. a rival for the
presidency who he placated by sending him
as minister to Cuba.
So the wheel has gone round. Nord Alexia
ruled for six years. On December S, IMS.
Simon then In the height of his popularity
led an overwhelming revolutionary army
Into Port Au Prince and was everywhere
proclaimed as a savour of the country from
tyranny.
He appeared to have the country united
behind htm. Nord Alexis, who had found
safety on the French cruiser Deugay
Trouln, later boarded the German steamer
Carnla and proceeded to Kingston, where,
embittered against his countrymen, he died
in the spring of 1910. To the last he re
fused to admit that he could understand
the hostility of the people.
"They always cheered me when I ap
peared In the streets." he was wont to
say mournfully, "and I have always
labored for their good."
(Ireat Fear of Conflict.
With Simon disposed of, attention has
been turned to his successor and there is
minh uneasiness regarding the future.
General Leconte and General Firmln, both
are avowed candidates for ttie presidency.
They head rival revolutionary armies.
Neither leader has arrived at the capital,
but the followers are In possession of the
city and the feeling between the two par
ties Is far from friendly
The danger now Is that neither general
will be disposed to retire In favor of the
other, or that the battle must be literally
fought out.
The dlplomatlo corps Is doing everything
to avoid a conflict. Today they held a
conference to decide on a committee of
public safety satisfactory to all, to whom
the security of the capital may be en
trusted. The first committee chosen was
made up eaually of Lecontists. Firminlsts
and neutrals, twenty-one In all. This was
not satisfactory to the Firminlsts, and a
new committee. In which they had the
largest representation, was formed. Some
of the members refused to serve, and a
third attempt to conciliate all parties was
necessary. Just now the followers of
Flrmin are in the majority, but General
Leconte with a large army is approaching.
Simon Given Parting; Salnte.
Early last evening Simon, aocompanled
by his daughter, Clementine, who has re
mained at his side since he left the palace,
and a handful of followers, with their bag
gage, were transferred from the American
schooner Bradford C. French to the Dutch
steamer Prlnx Nederlanden, and an hour
later the vessel sailed for Kingston. As
the vessel passed out of the harbor and
Simon had what may prove his last view
of the capital, the three ships gave him a
parting salute.
The night passed with comparative calm.
Occasionally the report of a rifle was
heard, but the lawless ones were held
pretty well In check.
The German marines who were landed
from the cruiser Bremen remain on shore
and the German minister has made It
known that he will hold as any armed
men in the city as the situation requires.
It Is unlikely that an attempt to consti
tute a provisional government will be made
until Leconte and Flrmin arrive.
HARRINGTON AFTER BARMAN
(Continued from First Page.)
to every one of the candidates, I have not
even promised them my vote In the prim
ary, and my only desire is to prevent the
nomination of any railroad candidate. For
If there Is any office In the state where the
candidate should be above suspicion It Is
in the matter of a railway commissioner.
'Mr. Harman then asked me whether I
Intended to give out a statement against
him, and I told him I did. He then said:
'If you do. I will tell what I know about
the "other fellow." He did not In this con
nection name the 'other fellow.' However,
his threat of exposing some 'other fellow'
had no terrors for me. If there Is any
'other fellow' assuming leadership in the
party who has been sucking eggs and
hiding the shells, then let him be exposed
as well as Mr. Harman. But, personally,
I shall Indulge In no criticism of any man
unless I have the facts tq justify It.
"In the campaign of 1908, It la qulto ap
parent to those who have given It Investi
gation that the railroads wanted to de
feat Williams and desired to replace him
with a democrat who would be friendly to
tho railroads. The political head of the
Union Pacific In Nebraska then was and
now Is Mr. Edson Rich of Omaha, who Is
the general attorney. His consln Is Mr. C.
E. Harman at Holdrege. These relations
In this way made It easy for these gentle
men to confer. What conferences may
have taken place I know not, but Mr. Har
man's bosom friend, Cowglll, who lived In
Holdrege, where Harman lives, was put
in tho democratic primaries and nominated
and elected, as I shall hereafter point out.
by tho assistance of the railroads and Mr.
Harman. All through the campaign Har
man was the tree and Cowglll the shadow.
Permit me to preface the statement of
facts to follow here by saying that I have
not tho least possible personal hostility
toward either Mr. Rich or Mr. Harman.
I have never had the least difference with
either of them In my life. Mr. Harman, In
reality. Is a stranger to me except as I
know him politically, and my opposition Is
not merely to these men as men, but to
their political activities within the party.
"Mr. Harman In an Interview he has
given out, asks that I make a siieclflc
statement and hore goes. I chargo that for
many years Mr. Herman received favors
from tho Union Pacific in the shape of
railway paxses, and that he got the-e favors
not only for himself but for others, snd
that these favors coupled with his kinship
to the political head of the I'nion Pacific,
made It quite natural that he should be
scleced as the man to aid the railroads In
selecting a railway commissioner suitable
to them.
"I charge that In the campaign to elect
Cowglll. money was contributed by the rail
roads and particularly by the Union Pa
cific, and that this money was passed over
to C. E. Harmun and by his used to aid
In the election of Cowglll. That he made
these contributions In his own name so as
to conceal the source whence they came
and the corrupt purpose for which they
ere given.
"I charge that the railroads of the state
In perfect harmony with the management of
CowglU's campaign by Harman, tried to
force aU their employes, regardless of their
polltlcs, to elect Cowgll commissioner, ai'd
that thla combination waa successful is
shown by the vote which elected Cowglll
while others went to defeat.
"I ran not cover the entire state In a
statement such as this, but a selection of
a few localities which are typical of Uie
rrFt. tells what the situation Is.
The town of Alliance Is the big voting
center In Box Butte countv. Alliance Is a
Burlington town. It waa on of the places
where the railroads. Mr. Harman and Mr.
Cowglll could naturally accomplish some
thing. Mr. Bryan carried Alliance by sixty
two. Mr. Bryan has many friends and
admirers and enthusiastic supporters In
Alliance. But how about Mr. Cowglll? It
Is doubtful If he has a friend In the town
or perhaps even an acquaintance. But Mr.
Cowglll carried this railroad center of
Alliance by 171. Why was Mr. Herman's
shadow, Mr. Cowglll, more than 100
stronger than Bryan In Alliance, a town
of loss than 5,000 people? Why did this
democratic stranger run so far ahead of
the presidential candidate? Simply because
of the Instructions of the railroad to vote
for Harmon's shadow and defeat Williams.
"Another peculiar thing about the Alli
ance vote Is this: The principal part of
the railway vote In that town Is cast In
the First ward. That ward was carried
by Taft by ten votes. But Mr. Cowglll
carried that railroad ward by seventy
seven votes. So that In this one wani
Cowglll was eighty-seven stronger than
Bryan. Whether the Burlington gave its
Instructions In writing, as Mr. Harman
admits the Union Pactflo did. or whether
the Information was carried by trusty lieu
tenants I am not advised. But the returns
show that the business was properly at
tended to by someone versed in coercion
in politics.
"North Platte Is a Union Paclfio town.
Mr. Bryan was unusually strong there In
1906. for the reason that the labor unions
gave him much better support than ever
before. Owing to this unusual support he
carried North Platte by eight. But how
about the candidate backed by Mr. Har
man? The record shows that he carried
North Platte by 133. North Platte Is a
republican city. How did Mr. Cowglll
happen to carry It by 133? Whv was he 125
stronger than Mr. Bryan? Mr. Harman
and his cousin. Mr. Edson Rich, the politi
cal manager for the Union Pacific, can
easily answer that question.
"I have now Indlcaed what took place
in the towns where the Union Pacific and
the Burlington controlled the vote. Tho
same condition prevailed, wherever tho
Chicago & Northwestern had votes sub
ject to Its control. Chadron Is a Northwest
ern town and casts a total of about 700
votes. It Is doubtful if there Is a man,
woman or child in Chadron who knew Mr.
Cowglll. Mr. Bryan had many acquaint
ances and personal friends there. But Mr.
Taft carried Chadron by 104. Mr. Cowglll
was defeated in Chadron by only thtrteonf
votes. Cowglll, the dummy, was ninety-one
votese stronger than Bryan, the stateman,
in a total vote of 700. How did this happen?
Solely because the Northwestern wonting
In harmony with the other railroads, urged
Its employes to vote for Cowglll.
"There Is just one way that the involute
truth In this matter can bj ascertained
and that is for Mr. Harman to sue me for
libel if these statements are not true. There
Is no possible way that I can orlng Mm
into court to prove these charges, but he
can sue me for libel and It can do de
termined, and to the end that the truth
may be known before the primaries, I
make this proposition to Mr. Harmon. Let
him sue me at Fremont where I made the
statement, and I will file an answer Imme
diately and agree with him to take depo
sitions at once and submit the case either
to a Jury there, or to either one of the
democratic Judges of that district without
a jury, and let the decision be made before
the primary.
"I do not care to give out In a newspaper
statement the names of all the persons
who may have knowledge of the corrupt
arrangement between Harman, Cowglll and
the railroads, but If Mr. Harman will Insti
tute a suit I am ready to subpoena the
witnesses by whom I can prove all that
I have said against Mr. Harman and his
connectelon with the railroads here and
more too. Under these conditions there
are just two things that Mr. Harman can
do decently: One Is to sue me and prove
that I have maligned him; the other is to
withdraw from the democratic and peo
ple's Independent tickets.
"M. F. HARRINGTON.

CARMEN REAIW TO STRIKE
Final Preparations Made in Des
Moines to Stop Work.
MANAGER REFUSES MEDIATION
Harr!a-an Will Stand Firm In Deter,
mlaatloa to Man Cars with Pro
feealonat Strikebreaker
Motormaa Ordlaaaee.
DES MOINES, la.. Aug. 4.-(Ppeclal Tele
gram.) Final preparations have all been
made for the strike of street ear em
ployes shortly after midnight tonight The
men f.re to run their cars Into the hnma
and finish the day's work as usual. They
plan to avoid all confusion and to luva
the compsny to wrestle with the prob
lem of running the cars.
This evening the executive committee of
thd street car men considered for some
tine the advisability of nontnoninir th.
date for the beginning of the strike, but
'decided not to make a chanse. A committee
of business men had asked that iim h
given for further negotiations with Man
ager Harrlgan.
The city police department will not take
steps toward protecting the property of the
company, but will preserve order and keep
off the streets all undesirable characters.
Federal officials will do all tney can to
aid the company and have assurance of
the sending of federal troops here If there
if interference with the cars which carry
mall boxes.
All possible Influence was brought to
bear upon Manager Harrlgan today to have
him recede, but he remained determined to
man the cars with professional strike
breakers. He Issued an Invitation to all
present employes to break from the union
and continue at work. None of them will
do so.
Company Has No Franchise
The plan of having a mass meeting to
night waa called off and the publlo will
take no htnd. It is possible that the city
government may come Into the game later,
because the company has no franchise
at all.
Today a committee of ministers addresned
Harrlgan, appealing to him to stop the
strike. The only support given Harridan
was from the secretary of the greater Des
Moines committee, who wired him en
couragement. It has been arranged that
there will be no strike on the Fort Dodge
interurban line, which Is In the hands of
a receiver, but If the power Is shut off the
company will bring its cars Into the city
with steam engines.
The city council started an ordinance to
day to require that only experienced motor
men be permitted to run cars in Des
Moines and this may be rushed through as
a measure of safety to the public. There
Is perfect order and no trouble is antic
ipated unless it is precipitated after the
strikebreakers start the cars In the early
morning.

which was so pronounced that it seemed
that the end was near.
The relapse followed a chill and left the
