WILLIAM g, BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. 0. ' Fbidat Mobkiko. Ja,n. 20. C0HORZ3S OH HIS BACK. The New Haven Register (Ind) ! has this to; Bay about President Roosevelt's plans for railroad legis lation and tarif revision' '. f ! "The situation which appears to i confront the President, if we can ! rely upon what the newspaper cor ' respondents tell us with regard to his determination to force the Con gress to act upon the tariff sched ules and the railroad rebate ques tion, is like that which confronted Mr. Cleveland When he was deter mined to secure the repeal of the 'purchasing clause of the Sherman silver act.; The leaders are opposed to Mr. KooBevelt now, as they were opposed to Mr. , Cleveland then. To use an expression of the latter, he has "Congress on his hack.' "We said when Mr. .Roosevelt de clared that he would not be a candi date for a second, term that the country might with confidence look to see him make his administration an illustrious one. Wo see in hi de termination toi revise the preposter ous tariff schedules, and to bring th a o-rnat railroad STStems to terms. iurcner reasons 10 repeat mat as sertion. - It is obvious that the lead' ers both In the! House and : in the Senate are not in favor of either en terprise. ! They fear to touch the tariff lest its whole house; of cards fails to the ground, bj forcing con sideration of -the - main: question, and they fear to touch the railroads lest the market take a slide. It is - with them a political question pure and simple, and not a moral one, involving the welfare of the country at large. Andj it is equally clear . that if they can have their way they will block his programme. Already it is said that a poll of the House is being taken, and the Idea of declar ing in a caucus: that the I judgment of the majority in that body is op posed to the proposed legislation.,; i If the ' Stab! has been reading straight, i President Roosevelt is really not insisting on but one thing, 1 and that is legislation pro hibiting rebates and which will em power - the. Inter-State Commerce Commission toj make freight ; rates in cases where contentions between consignees or localities, on the one side, and common carriers, on the other, are before the commission for reasonable adjustment. As to i the President's Insistence fer a revi sion of the tariff, it is our recolleo- ; tion that he has already stated that . while he is in earnest about it, he ' wDI defer" to the members of Con t gross, who are responsible to. their constituents, v Therefore, the Presi dent' is not so determined" about revising the tariff. 'The President. Is determined on an act of Congress prohibiting com mon carriers from allowing rebates on freight to favored or large con signees, and legislation empowering it f A.

As to rebates he has the railroads with him, and as , to his other railroad legislation he can de pend on enough Republicans to go with the Democrats to warrant him in taking an : aggressive and de termined position. However, sa to the tariff, the President Is shrewed enough to know! that his stand pat party is against him and hence he is not 'determined' but defers to their juugiusum . ib uv uut ica ou ivij much in that determined attitude of the President., . ... . i It is argued that ' the President's tremendous' plurality of 2,500,000 of the popular vote makes him inde pendent of Congress. The fact that he has declared that he will not be a candidate again makes Congress also independent of him. (The fact Is the Republican stand patters are acting with remarkable independ ' enoe towards the President's tariff views. Why, at a banquet on Tues - day, night by the National Board of Trade, which has been holding its thirtyfifth annual meeting in Wash A 3 TT 1 - I nL . n . win, om uncie tioe vannon, ppeafer of the House, made bold to speak his mind on tariff, railroad and labor legislation, and started off by praia? ing the late Senator Hanna as a business man and the father of the - ystana patj-rietfweu enough alone" policy of i the Bepublicas: party. Uncle Joe is not afraid to speak out, and he predicted that there would be no "extra : session of Congress to consider tariff revision. He said: , - "This Is the short session ot' Con gress: We are to agree on legislation that will devote $850,000,000 to the public service. Should the throttle bo slightly lifted, there might be , easily $100,000,000 more,, and even ' then there would' be many sections crying more, more.' There are certain things .that must; be prt- i vided. We must maintain the army and the navy that we have. The postoffioe appropriation has in creased since Mr. McKlnley'e first . InaugnratioQ from $80,000,000 to $180,000,000. ;;. And - After all the regular appropriations there may still be left $120000,000 1 for de ficiency, y, ; . : : -. "Other things are desirable, but they will have to wait; Bather than . Increase taxation1 I believe Is ex ; panding expenditures - a little less rapidly than for the past six years. "The concensus of opinion is that we had better wait for revenue leg- islatlon at least a year without un dertaking to revise the ; revenue laws. It is a difficult thing to frame a tariff bill, for It is a question of hearing each one of the Representa tives who vomer with the plan 'of what be thinks his constituents want, and, making It so that a ma s jority ot those inteiested , will, say . 'aye? ; I believe that ; we have jpt '. a good reveaut lawi both for reve nue and for customs. Ten years, ego a good law was framed and ; - the making of it halted business. As a result the Congress of the United States will wait a long while before it runs-the risk of doing the same thing. There is talk of . monopoly, but if so it will come under the laws of the land and we will march on. "I am neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet, but I believe that Congress will make wise appropria tions, and that- when it j adjourns March 4th it will be to give the peo- Ele of the country a rest until next December. - , 'There ia, talk of an interstate commerce law. ; It seems to be that thii is . brought about largely by competition between the great com mercial centres. There is already much -. legislation on the statute books- intended to remove any in equities that may exist, but in the next nve weeKs proper legiBiauon may:, be enacted: that will tend to remedv anv inequities that may ex ist between the producer, distribu ter and consumer. i i "Bv March 4th wise legislation will be enacted for rivers; and har bors so far as may be practicable to make it." v;: The delegates from every section of the Mississinni vallev loudly ap plauded this last declaration of the Speaker. " Uncle Joe has ., evidently counted noses in the House and Senate, and knows what ;; he - is ; talking' about. However, according to Uncle Joe's argument on tariff revision, the President is justified in beginning his tariff reform now, as after "each one of : the Bepresentatives comes with the plan of . what, his const! tuonts want," the hearing on the question wiU occupy the time till the next Presidential election !

The act was occasioned by continued ill health and depression incident thereto, to gether with a hopeless affair of the heart. Mr. Eddins was about 33 years old. For several days he had given evidence of a more intense de pression, and had stated to some of his friends that life had become a burden to him and.he would be bet ter off out of the world. He also made mention of , his hopeless love ior a woman to whom he had be come, devoted and held reverentially. ; Statesville Landmark: "I've been np against a. good many skin games in my time," said Capt W.

"Well, that is an easy question,' known to all venders of the article. : V "It chanced that In 1854 the journey from New Orleans to New York was a considerable trip. A certain " lady Mrs. Albert Cashlngor bad a sick baby, and on account of that condensed milk was discovered. . r I "Mrs. Cashlngor's baby was so 111 that she realized that it would be necessary- to make a trip to New York to receive expert medical attention if she hoped to save the child's life. : But to travel that long distance the child had to have milk. A Milk wouldn't keep fresh more than a few hours. So there she was, kept back from making the trip merely because she could not sup ply the child with fresh milk. ';: - "In her despair she began to experi ment to see if she could not preserve milk the same as she did jelly or any thing else.. She tried several different methods and finally hit upon a plan which seemed to give satisfaction. ' So she preserved several big Jars of the stuff, put it upon a sailing vessel and made the trip, j The child fed upon the milk and was nourished. ! : - . fin. New York several men learned of her discovery; ' They tried to make some of the condensed milk In the man ner that she had told them, but failed. They followed her to New Orleans, and there she unwittingly - unfolded her valuable secret j On the island of Gal veston these men started a small fac tory, and there the first salable con densed, milk was made.

The cotton market developed no new feature and ruled generally quiet with quotations wiih a range of seven points. The opening wis steady; unchanged to two points lower or about in line with the Liverpool cables, which reported a de cline of five points on futures at the hour of the local opening. But spot cotton then was In good demand at the decline of six points. ; there was no hint of ; farther financial trouble In tbe banking situation south, and there appeared to be no re newal of the pressure which caused the late break here yesterday. Con sequently offerings were small? and following the call moderate covering1 that May have-Influenced to some ex tent by the report of important buying in the New Orleans market near the close yesterday, rallied prices to a net gain of about -four to five points. Following this the market worked off under private reports of weaker South ern spot markets, and in. the early afternoon was about 1 points net lower. Toward the close early sellers covered, rallying the market to the best point of the session, prices being finally steady net 3 to 6 points higher. The movement continued very -small With the Into sight figures for the week thought likely to fall around; 180,000 bales; agalns) 255,000 bales last year. Official reports from Southern, spot markets did sot In tbe least confirm the reports received from i private sottrcei of increased Offerings," tbe market being - quiet and unehanred.
