Beauty of Holy Tabernacle B AKLAND, Dec, 15.—The corner- stone of the new Sacred Heart Church, at the corner of Fortieth and Grove streets, was laild this afternoon with fitting ceremony in the presence of several thousand peo- ple. Archbishop P. W. Riordan of San Francisco conducted the services and con- secrated the edifice to its sacred mission. There were many priests, both from Oak- land and San Francisco, in attendance, and all the local Catholic societies were present in full force. Prior to holding the cornerstone cere- monies all the participants assembled at St. Frances de Sales Church, where a short service was held. Here the organized bodies met in marching array and after the service lined up in processional forma- tion for the long tramp to Fortieth street. It was a big procession and a long road, the lively music contributed by the bo made marching easy, and distance was covered without tiring anybody. The consecration services were held on finished floor of the new building, > a temporary platform and altar d been erected. The services were held at the west end of the building. It was at the southeast corner that the stone was laid, and so great was the crowd on the floor that it seemed as if two distinct ceremonies were being held. Promptly at 3 o'clockK Archbishop Rior- dan, accompanied| by Fathers Praught, Heslin = Mulligan, made his way through the throng\to where the mass of hewn sandstone was swinging over its permanent resting place. Priests in Full Robes. The priests were clad in their full rcbes of office, and the white and gold of the vestments shone bright and clear against the dull background presented by the mass of humanity from which the priestly procession had emerged. Archbishop Riordan, with solemn cere- monial, blessed the stone. Father Mulli- gan acted master of ceremontes, Father Praught as deacon and Father Heslin sub-deacon. In a cavity the foundation was placed a copper box containing a programme of the exercises, the names of the socleties participating and the names of the offi- cers of the new church. Over this foundation the stone was then carefully lowered. Again the Archbishop spoke words of consecration and with a sprinkling of holy water closed the cere- mony. With the benediction the exer- cises were concluded. Meanwhile services were being conduct- e west end of the floor.

PLAN 70 REDULE THE WA THNES Ways and Means Com- mittee Informally Dis- cusses Matter. Dec. 15.—Chairman and Means Commit- vs that no definite plans have been made thus far for considering the ques- tion of further reducing the war taxes. At the same time there has been much informal discussion of the subject, much data has been gathered concerning the items which n be best reduced, and there scems to be a general purpose on the part of the members of the commit- tee to push the important question to the front soon after the holidays. In speaking of the matter to-day, Payne said: With a surpi no doubt the W frame a bill of about $100,000,000 I have vs and Means Committee will ucing the revenues, probably on the general lines of the last war tax reduc- tion bill. But there is no particular hurry in dealing with the subject, as there are several contingencles which may call for a large in- crease in Government expenditures, and it will be well to understand pretty weil what our expenditures are to be before finally determin- ing on a large reduction of the revenues, When we make the reduction we ought to make it as large as can be made with safety. In my judgment the committee will take the matter up soon after the holidays. Whether we will have hearings or not will depend upon the pleasure of the committee. In the absence of action by the committee, Payne will not discuss the prospects of re- duction on particular items. Already, how- ever, several interests have applied for hear- ings. These include the representatives of the tea interests, who desire to have the 10 cent tax imposed by the war revenue act taken off that product. No formal application has been made by the representatives of the beer and wine interests, but both are expected to make strong efforts for reductions in their respective taxes. Suggestions have also reached mem- bers of the committee that the war tax im- posed on banking capital be taken off. An- other proposition for the doing away of the withdrawal stamp taxes on imported merchan- dise, particularly on tobacco, as these with- drawal stamps are said to be very onerous to importers. The large tobacco interests have not yet made known what further reduction they would seek on tobacco, but the independ- ent producers of manufactured tobacco and snuff are understood to desire a reduction from the present rate of six cents per pound. Bills have been introduced proposing a reduction as low as two cents per pound. There is no sug- gestion thus far that further changes will ba made on sugars and clgarettes. OwIng to the large amount of surplus there is some senti- ment among the members in favor of wiping out the entire list of war revenue taxes at a Mm:lv E(;(l)(l:, thus leaving the revenues and customs law ‘upon the basis th to the Spanish war.

Special Dispatch to The Call. CINCINNATI, O, Dec. 15.—Much in- terest is taken in the expected trip of George B. Cox and other Republican leaders to Washington this week. Owing to the contest between the friends of Senator Foraker and Senator Hanna over the organization of the Legislature there is an unusual agitation all over the State. The long distance telephone has been in use daily between Washington and Ohio cities, and especially with cer- tain Republicans at Columbus and Cin- cinnati, and now it is reported that there may be another attempt at compromise by a conference in Washington betore the Republican caucuses are held at Colum- bus two weeks from next Saturday. If no compromise be effected, it is sald, both Senators Foraker and Hanna may come to Columbus after Congress adjourns for the holidays, to marshal their respective forces for the caucus contest. During the campaign of the past sum- mer the Ohio Senators co-operated in the interests of the Republican candidates for the Legislature, as Senator Foraker's successor 1s to be elected now (January 14) and Senator Hanna's successor two years hence. The junior Ohio Senator was interested as well as the genior Ohio Senator, because it so happened tnat about 8 per cent of the members- elect are on their first terms d are expected to be serving their second terms when the election of Senator Hanna's successor takes place in the next Legis- lature. The Hanna men assert that the Foraker men proceeded after the election to form slates for the organization of both branches of the Legislature with ulterior views, notably that of the retirement of Hanna two years hence. The contest about two weeks ago broke out into open conflict and now there are opposing tick- ets, composed of Foraker and Hanna men, respectively, for the caucuses of both the Republican State Senators and the Republican Representatives. The op- posing candidates are not limifed to the presiding officers, but the factional lines are carried on down the list to clerks, sergeants-at-arms and everything. Many leading Republicans from Ohio have visited Washington the past week and none of them reports any prospect of peace or compromise, so the indica- tions are that the contest will continue for almost three weeks longer.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.—The commit- tee of seventeen Senators and members of the House appointed by the fu.. Congress- ional representation from the western arid land States to draft a bill providing for national aid for irrigation has com- pleted the bill, but it will not be intro- duced in either house of Congress until after the holidays. The bill embodies some of the provisions of both the Sha- roth and the Hansbrough-Newlands bills. Its central idea, is the devotion of the pro- ceeds of the sale of the public lands to the reclamation of those lands. It also in- creases the price of the public lands to be benefited by the proposed irrigation en- terprises so as to make settlers pay part of the cost of construction. The bill provides that moneys received from the sale and disposal of public lands in the arid land States shall be set aside as a reclamation fund; that examin- ation and surveys of reservoir sites, tun- nel sites for diversion of water and irri- gation canals to be connected therewith shall be made; that the Secretary of the Interior may withdraw from public entry the lands required for irrigation works and the public lands proposed to be irtigat- ed by them, and that upon the determina- tion being reached that any irrigation project is practicable a contract shall be made for its construction if the estimate of the engineer shows that the cost will not exceed $10 per acre on the land to be reclaimed. After construction the lands to be irri- gated are to be subject to homestead en- try in areas not exceeding eighty acres upon the entryman’s payving $ per acre to the reclamation fund. This fund is to be used for the construction and main- tenance of reservoirs and irrigation works until payments for the land settled upon are made, when all the irrigation works except the reservoirs shall be turned over to the settlers who are required as a body corporate to operate and maintain them. It also provides that in the event that there is sufficlent water for public and pri- vate lands, water rights may be sold for the irrigation of private lands at a price of not less than $5 per acre. Full power is given to condemn lands needed for reservoirs and ditch purposes. It is provided that State laws shall gov- ern in the matters of the appropriation and distribution of water. Power to make general rules and regulations is vested in the Secretary of the Interior. L e e e e e el eral ,others are supposed to have been killed, but their names have not been learned. Two elderly women were hurt in- ternally, and neither is expected to sur- vive, Fourteen persons were more or less seriously hurt. Among the Injured was Advance Agent Sycle of the McPhee Company. The train was going at the rate of twenty-five miles an hour, when it broke in two. The air brakes were set imme- diately, preventing a more serious acci- dent. The larger number of injured wera in the day coach. All were asleep at the time of the accident. The day coach caught fire, but the flames were extin- guished by the passengers. ANACONDA, Mont., Dec. 15.—A special to the Standard from Kalispell says that Otto Erickson_was the only man killed in the Great Northern wreck near Es- sex. He was probably smothered death. Among the injured are: Joseph Kipp of Blackfoot, badly bruised about head and body: John Miller of Blackfoot, bruised, not severely; Yale Gleason, San Francisco traveling man, bruised, not se- riously; Mr. Tycle, address unknown, bad- ly cut and bruised.
