It was adopted after extended debate.

But that is simply a negw- tivo statement of the real question. There should be such reasonable modification of the rules that a strong, tactful, and de- termined republican speaker, mindful of the rights of each member, and the necessary dispatch of business, backed by a progres- slve membership, could re-establish the pational house of representatives in its position of primacy In legislation as was intended by the makers of the constftution.

DES MOINES, Ia, March 5—(Special Telegram.)—Plans for enlarging the scope of the lowa Tax Revisionists' association and Increasing its membership were formu- lated at a meeting of the assoclation today. An active campalgn will be oarried on to strengthen the organisstion in order that all tax bills presented to the next session of the legislature may have the strongest backing possible. The assoclation will concentrate .its ef- forts at the next legislature on an at- tempt to secure the appointment of & com- misston with power to investigate the rey- enue situation and make recommenda- tions on needed reforms.

At the session of the Ralroad commis- slon to be held next week it is expected that Iowa will formally adopt the uniform demurrage rules which were formulated last fall at the national meeting in Wash- ington. Mr, Eaton, the Iowa member of the national organization, in fact had & great deal to do with the making of ‘these rules and they were arranged better to suit the western shippers than those in the east. It is stated that the rallroads in this section will not cppose the adop- tion of the rules. Favor Tax Revision. A meeting of the officers and executive committee of the Iowa Tax Revision asso- clation was held here this atternoon. The assoclation is planning for some reform in the laws that will relleve mortgages of taxation and put a stop to the constant tendency of the money to leave the state in order to avold nerous taxa- tion, They also desire some change in the law to curb the activities of the tax fer- rets. Bills of this nature were before the last legislat but nothing was done. For Purer Foodstutfs. H. R.

He proceeded, how- ever, to sum up onbe more the “Inferences" he wished the éommittee to draw from the doduments already In evidence and from the statements of witnesses yet to be heArd. Mr. Pinchot had been in the stand four days. The cross and re-direct examinations of the witness were brought to a close only after members of the committee had re- peatedly ' cautioned counsel on both sides agéinst dilatory methods. Attorney Vertrees made the polnt today in his cross-examination of Mr. Pinchot that possible misstatements made by Mr. Ballinger, upon the authority of others thaf™himself, constituted a “willful decep- tion of the president,” while admitted misstatements by Mr. Pinohot to the presi- dent were referred to only as “simple mis- takes. The ontire morning session was taken up with “inferencqs and conclusions” on the' dooumentary evidence already in the record. This plainly irritated the members of the commilttes, who declared they werd pe: telitly capable of forming thelr owncon- olustons. James R. Garfield, former secretary of the interior, took the stand after the noon recess, Subpoenas have been lssued at the re- quest of Mr. Ballinger's counsel for United Statés Attorney Elmer B. Todd and special Afent G. A. Parks, both of Seattle.

Parks will testity concerning Glavis' box in which twenty-four missing letters are sup- posed to have been found. Lawyer and Wi ss Clash Senator Nelson, recalling the dreary ses- sion of yesterday afternoon, suggested to counsel to avold golng over the same &round more than once. Mr. Pinchot has charged that Mr. Bal- linger appeared before a committee of congress In the Interest of fraudulant claimants. Mr. Vertrees sought to show that his appearance had to do only with the new coal land law, the necessity of a new law * ‘having been urged by President Roosevelt and Secretary Garfleld. Mr. Pinchot sald that In his testimony before the congressional committee Mr. Ballipger urged an ameéndment which would have let the Cunningham oclalms go to patent at §10 an acre, whereas all future olaimants would be assessed “not less than $10 an acre.” It waa shown, however, that the Cun- ningham claims were the only ones thht had gone to final entry it congress could legislate againit entries already mpde- in Zoodfaith, 'Mr. Pinchot sald that waes. a question for legal au- thority. The witness and -ocounsel soon began to clash again in the manner which delayed proceedings yesterday. Mr. Vertrees read to.the witness a part of a message by President, Roosevelt. - Mr,. Pinchot listened earnestly ;and then snapped. back: “Do you:read In that message any in- siuuation that Mr. Rooseveit favored the patentipg. of plaims not made in good faith?* Attorney Vertrees—I am insinuating noth- Ing, Mr. Roosevelt. Mr. Pinchot—That is not: my name, Mr. Vertrees—Waell, didn’t Mr. Rooseveit say, what I just read to you?” Mr. Pinchot—Otf course he did. Senator Nelson grew impatient and de- clared the meaning and intent of messages and everything else.could be determined by the committee, Mr, Pepper protested that Mr. Vertrees' cross-examination was made up almost wholly of argumentative ques- tions which ocalled for argumentative answers, *'Oh, o on, hed the chairman wearily, Mr. Vertrees defended his course by de- claring that as Mr. Pinchot's charges were all “Inferred, he was put to the necessity of trying to “follow in the pathway of his inferences.” Mr. Pinchot finally, by dint of much questioning, was brought to the admission trat Mr. Ballinger's statement to the pres- ident wis In effect that, “according to Schwartz's anewer, the record shows,” ete., and that it was not an original state- ment by the secretary.

Movement Agninst Ballinger. The witness protested against the form of the question, saying he had not made up his mind to attack Secretary Rallings he did decide to defend the policy of con- servation. Representative Graham protested that Mr. Vertrees was always “‘wrapping up in- ferences” In his question As to his charges against Mr. Ballinger, Mr. Pinchot sald he made up his mind to prefer them about ten days before he wrote to the president. The examination ended with the state- ment by Mn Pinchot that he was not aware of any ‘‘movement” having for its purpose the removal of Secretary Bal linger. Attorney Pepper conducted a brief re- direct examination of the witness. To make Mr. Pinchot's position entirely | clear, Mr. Pepper asked him it his infor- matiofi regarding Mr. Ballinger had all been gained from documents and statistics of other witnesses. “With one exception, that Is true." “What 1s the exception?" asked Senator Nelson. “I learned from Mr. Ballinger himself his attitude against the leasing of coal lands.” Attorney Pepper also got into trouble with the committee by going over ground already coversd and was asked to be as brief as posaible.

At an average speed of about fif- teen miles an hour, omitting stops, 1201 coupled Virginian gondola cars traveled 124.8 miles in nine hours and five minutes, and showed to the rallroad interests of the world new economic possibilities in a low grade coal road. The train was in charge of W. H. Wells, engineer; J. L. Rollins, fireman, and J. H. Balley, conductor, and had three brake- men.

The total weight of the mile-long train between engine and caboose, including cdal, was 9,120 tons.

The engine was of the Mallet com- of coal during the run. No coal was taken en route, although ¢ veral stops ~were made, causing a total delay of fifty-four minutes. The actual running time was elght hours and eleven minutes. The most marked feature of the engine, which is one of the largest types con- structed, is a leading two-whéeled truck and the absence of a trailing truck at the rear. The engine welghs on the drivers 801,000 pounds, and on the front truck 18,000 pounds; the tender, welghing when loaded 163,000 pounds, has a capacity of 9,600 g lons of water and fifteen tons of coal.
