OPEN HEARINGS BEGUN ON TOLLS QUESTION Debate Rcsumcd on Stlection of Regioral Reserve Cities. ‘Washington, April 9.—Open hear- ings on the administration’s bill to repeal the tolls exemption clause of the Panama canal act began today ‘before the senate committee on inter- oceanic canals, to continue fifteen days. Authors of nine pending sub- stitute bllls or resolutions, five re- publicans, three democrats and one progressive, had been asked to appear first to explain their proposals. Sug- gestions from committee members that former President Taft, Secretary Bryan and former Secretaries of State Knox and Olney be invited to testify, attracted attention, but it was con- sidered unlikely that any witnesses other than senators would be called until “after the representatives of commercial organizations which haveg asked for hearings have appeared. Telegrams have been despatched to such bodies in New Orleans, New York, Seattle, San Francisco, Port- land, Ore., and other cities asking them to fix dates upon which they would like to have their representa- tives heard. Debate Is Resumed. Debate over the selection of the twelve regional reserve cities for the new federal banking systm was re- sumed in the senate today. The dis- cussion followed the calling ap by Senator Hitchcock of his resolution providing that the organization -com- mittee of the federal reserve board submit all its data and the reasons upon which the fixing of reserve dis- tricts was based. The introduction yesterday of the resolution followed a hot debate, participated in mostly by southern senators, over the selections of Atlanta and Dallas as against New Orléans. Senator Ransdell of Louisi- ana is . authority for the’ statement that an attempt would be made to have the reserve board overrule the selections of the organization commit- tee. Hearings Are Concluded. The first of a series of hearings on the question of collective bargain- ing, mediation and conciliation in industrial disputes was concluded here today by the United States commis- sion on industrial relations. The last ‘witnesses were Samuel Gompers, pres- ident of the American Federation of Labor; J. 'A. Emery, counsel of the National ‘Association of Manufactur- ers; J. E. Williams, chairman of the grievance committee .n the suit, cloak and skirt industry of New York, and W. L. Mackenzie King, former min- ister of labor of Cdrnada. « Many' of those testifying before the commission _have, favored. the. solu- | tion | 6t" inauitrial ‘disputes by a fed- )%m\nmomxds fo Spike: Driven | SLive !

If you are one of these unfortunates, then these glasses may be rrining your eyes instead of helping tiim. Thousands who wear these “‘withdows’ may prove for them- selves that they can dispense with glasses if they will get the following prescription filled at once: Go to any active drug store and get a bottle of . Optona; fill a 2 ounce ‘bottle with warm water and drop in one Optona tablet. < With this harmless liquid so- lution "bathe the eves two to four times daily, and you are likely to be astonished at the results right from the start. Many who have been’told that they have astigmatism, eye- strain, cataract, sore eyelids, weak eyes, conjunctivitis and other eye dis- orders, report wonderful benefits from the use of this prescription. 'Get this ‘ prescription filled and use it; you may 80’ strengthen your :éyes that glasses Wwill not be necessary. Thousands who are blind, or mearly so, or who wear glasses would never have re- quired them if they had cared for their eves in time. 'Save your eyes before it is too late! Do not become , one of these victims of neglect. Eye- glasses are only llke crutches and every few years they must be changed to fit the ever-increasing weakened condition, so better see if you can,| like many others, get clear, healthy, strong magnetic eves . through the prescription here given, ——————————————————— AFTER SHAVING. ‘use BERZO.

Questions, directed to :witnesses by members of the commi~sion have in- dicated that such a board is being seriously considered. Hearings will be conducted in vari- ous Industrial centers throighout the country before the commission under- takes to reach a conclusion. Investigation Is Asked. Senator Tillman today had read in the senate copies of two more letters from southern coal operators support- ing his resolution for an investigation of alleged discriminations by the so~ called *“Coal Trust,” acting through the Southern Railway against South Atlantic ports. Jake Bewley of Bristol, Va., charged In his letter that'the “Coal tablished .kxl _Trust,” indirectly or possibly direct- 1y, outlines the policy of the South- ern Raillway in the matter of estab- lishing coal rates and in building coal docks at Charleston or other south- ern ports.” Frank C. Wright, a coal producer in southwestern Virginia, wrote that Senator Tillman’s resolution touched the real interest of the south and if the investigation was authorized it would ‘*uncover conditions in the southeast, under which the cost of fuel at tidewater is maintalned at a figure high enough to conflne the major portion of the supply to mines in Pennsylvania, Maryland and West Virginia to the/ exclusion to coal mined in the south.” Native Eggs, 27c doz.

J., April 9.—A case in the Hudson county circuit court was adjourned yesterday until Gen- eral Francisco Villa can be reached to give his deposition. The action is that of John O’Neill against the Central Leather company of Mexico and New York and the Pennsylvania Railroad company to recover the val- ue of a large shipment of hides from Mexico, which are alleged to have been taken from freight cars by Villa’'s men. Willilam D. Edwards, attorney for the railroad, said he would try to get the deposition of Villa when 2 ing is more peaceful, but the rebel chiet was iov busy now to give the case attention.

WELLESLEY RECEIVES GIFT OF $750,000 Rockefeller foqndation to Aid Co- {ege Which Suffered Loss by Fire. Boston, Mass,, - April 9.—Wellesley college has received a gift of $750,- 000 from the Rockefeller Foundation toward restoration of facilitles lost’| in the recent destruction of College hall by fire. This was announced by the board of trustees yesterday They also said that 'it has just ibeen decided to,raise a fund of $3,- 000,000 for new hufidings, equipmafit and; endowment, 'and this gift s /made with the understanding that the campaign shall be for this sum and shall begin at once The plan | of the trustees is to expend a mil- | llon and a quarter for new buildings and three-quarters of a million for endowment. Seven New Buildings. Seven new buildings of construction and equipment required to do the work done by the single great modern | will be | formerly | building burned. The re-building programme includes three dormitories to house 100 persons each, two science buila- ings for laboratories, museums, an administration bulla- ing containing offices and an assem- bly hall and a building for recita- tion rooms. The trustees explained that the raising of a million dollar endow- ment fund, which was well under way and almost half of it pledged before College hall had been burned, is not merged into the larger plan to raise $2,000,000- before the first of next January. Fifty per cent. of any pledge must be payable before January 1, 1916, and the before January 1, Bift. Bishop Is Pleased. Bishop Lawrence, president of the board of trustees, in announcing the gift yesterday, said: “S8o large a gift from such a source gives us great courage, for it is the highest indorsement of Wel- lesley’s worth and need. It expresses belief in the future of the college, and shows confidence in its adminis- | tration. The amount required to re- | place what was destroyed shows how far Wellesley, with her 1,600 | students, had outgrown her plant.” Native Eggs, 27c doz.
