J WAS lit NGTON LETTER, ' From oar Eegaltr Correspondent, Finally the Senate linn fin - ished with the rate bill. The Allison amendment, which may he Senator Allison's or may be some on dues, has been incorporated. The fate ful words, "initK judgement" have been Rtrii-ken out and t he I n t prst a te Com metre roili mission its left without spe'if ii ittst I'ut ions to do some thing it-will have to do any how, No. the bill has not pass ed. There Hie still some pee- cIhk to be made by 'gentleman who wnnt to get into the Con gresNioii.il Kecord. out the Senate is as. good as d o n e vvt'h the bill. Now comes the question ho.v f a r will the louse agree to the aaiendi il bill, and there is a prospfM ol a long and perhaps stor my conference oyer.the mens ure. No one yet knows wheth er it is constitutional or not ana the bill at the best will vest the rate making powi r in the courts rather than in the Interstate Commerce Com mission. This of course may not be a great loss. T h e courts presumably are as honest as the Interstate Com merce Commision, but the mere idea of n broad court review seems to be a useless sort, of government ''ircnmlo cation, vesting the rate ma king power with the courts where it had as well be put in the first place if the courts arp to have the ultimate set tling of it. Only the embers of the Rai ley.Tillmnn Chandler White House feud remains. Senator Bailey paid his say nnd the correppondent of the papers he pitched into sepmed to have no objection to being de nounced as "malicious nnd deliberate liars." So the na tive eruption in that direc tion is over. If it had been a northern Sn itor so dis-1 tar' inga Southern corres pondent, there might have bepn n peqnnl. hut. as the case stands, probably nothing more will ne neani ot ir. ... 1 1 j. One of thp loea' papers has come out this week with what is nllegfd to be an nnthori- tiye launching of the Cannon bnoiii for the Presidency. It claims that the PreMdrntirl bee has lit at 'nst and there is being prepared by s o in e nnnnmed representative n Bproch thnt will be ddivered in the .House soon, naming 'Uncle .!'! "s ,,1P r 9 a 1 thing in Presidential timber and putting the thmginsnch a shape that th old war horse of the Republicans can but say coyly '"Yea." This is n piece of gossip that is givrn for what it mny be worth. There is no authentic record of a man vet refusing the nomination for the Pres idency when it was definitely tendered him. Speaker Can non says be has enough tron bte running the House and is not particularly after t h e nomination. B it it is possi ble be might b induced to do violence to his feelings if he were violently approach ed. There is j'let one thing against the snjwahon, and ht i that it is a little ear- laiinehed. Presidencial candi latea are not usually named so far in advance of the con vention, and it is just possi ble if the Cannon boom is launched at this time that it may wither with some other booms already launched thnt will probably never get into l he convention hall. One of the most ia.portant conventions that has been held in Washington for a long time is nowinsession.lt is the joint meeting of the sso-iatioii of A in e r 1 c a n Ph rsieians and the. Nation al Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuber- I . 1a. .'It I II .4. cuiosiiv ip win ue n.'cuuen ed that, this Association was the outgrowth of the com mission appointed by t. h e Piesident to study the sub- lect. It has had the eftect of l)iinging some of the best minds in the medical profes sjon to f hestuay ofconsump tion and has resulted in the first organized fight that has ever lieen made against 1 ne Grenr White Plague. It was pointel out by one of the speakers this week tluit th? ravages of tuberculosis in j the Uwited States in a single year wipe out more people and caused a grw.iteramount of loss 'and nufnring, save perhaps the actual money loss. that theGalvewtoii flood the San Francisco earth qtiake and the Baltimore aud Chicago fires lomoined. Dr. Billings, in addressing the convention, said frankly that the nifdical profession had come to the conclusion thnt there was no specific drug for the cure of tuber culosis. The medical profes sion had been twenty five veuts 111 arriving at that con elusion, and the average layman was now 25 years be hind the medical profession and still cling to the idea that there was some specific against th diseas.. Dr. Bill ings said, and the convention agreed with him, that the only hope for the work lay in a broaib'nst campaign of education among the people. The masses must be shown the real facts, namely that tuberculosis was n e i t h e 1 hereditary nor contageous. though it was cominunicjble from a consumptive to a well person if the most panitary life was not led and the great est care taken against spread ing the media of contagion, namely thp sputum from the consumptive patient. If this were done, and the plague could be stamped out. Th' re was a world of inter esting material in the con ventiun "nd the work of edu cation ami eradication out lined were so sane and simple that it made one wish to help the causp along by show ing just how much and how- little there really, was to bt dreaded from the disease. It mav be paid however that the National Association for the Study nnd Prevention of Tuhcrclosls has a lot of sun pie ami interesting reading matter prepared on the hub- jert wh eh it is willing to dis tribute and any one who is inteiesfre in the ma'tcr can help themselves and help thu work bycouimunicating with 1 Ik Ano.'iatiojj.

One of the liveliest voyages that ever was made a ioss he Atlantic, was brought to a conclusion today when the British freighter Sr. Andrew a me into port with proba- dy the biggest menagerie hat has ever been alluai since the days ol Noah. She found a gale when she was in mid Atlantic, causing a tumult among the animals which are consigned to Bos tock's show at Coney Island In the blurknet-s of a Htr- my midnight several of t h e animals got free, and while some attacked each ether, others attacked their keep ers, with the result that ma ny of these now show severe acerations. An elephant at tacked by a puma, which had broken from its cage, curled its trunk around the savage animal, slammed it on deck and then trampled it until it. was dead. A R.is-ian wolf got free from its cage and dashed up the open hatchway, overturn ing I wo keepers who were try ing to descend. Thse picked themselves up and essayed pursuit, - Up anil down t h e decks raced fugative and pur stiei-H until finally the vvoll leaped oyer the side into the sea. Further aft, where the 45 bears of the consignment were quartered, came the noise of another row. One by eiia, for w 11 ifti no s p u c e could be found below, h a d been put there in its cnge. It had kuawetl ami fretted at its bars until the fastening gave way, and the first use the repulsive animal made of its freedom was to snap at the heels of a polar bear. The bear reached out its p a w ami with onestrok stripped nearly half Ihe hide from its adversary. While vigorously prodding a lion -that had seized i t s mate by the throat, a heavy roll of the ship seat one of the keepers' against an ad jomi'ig cage. A young lion which it contained made a yi cioiin tttroke with its paw, rubbed away the trousers of the keeper and badly lacera tetl the fl'Sti. About the Haino time an other keep T WiN thrown a- gain-t, another lioncage, and the beast reached out its paw, binned the k-?ep r by the shoulder and would have torn away the ll ?dh h id not. another keeper broke t h e clutch with an iron bar.
