The Day InCoagrxsa

(Monday, March 29, 1S09.) Senate. Senator Hale, chairman of the repub lican caucus. Introduced a resolution today to confine the business of the extra session to the consideration of the tariff bill and the bill providing- for the thirteenth census, but he afterward amended It so as to permit the introduction of Mils and the transaction of executive business. Contrary to expectation the resolution aroused a spirited discussion, but the debate dealt with other subjects than the limitation of business. Apparently there was no objection to such a limitation, but the measure went over until Thursday. Senator Klkins of West Virginia took occasion to criticise the distribution of the republican membership of the finance committee, declaring that while New England had three members on the committee the south has been entirely denl edrepresentation. His tone was very similar to that of Senator Scott, his colleague, who also criticised the distribution in the republican senatorial caucus last Monday. At 2:05 p. m. the senate adjourned until Thursday. Ileum. The tariff question was again discussed in the house today in a ten-and-half-hour session. Not one of the many speakers favored the Payne bill in Its entirety, while the democrats found much in it to criticise and condemn. The maximum and minimum features of the proposed measure were especially obnoxious to them, while republicans urged higher duties on lumber, iron, pottery and zinc, ore, as well as a duty on coal. Mr. Moon (Tenn.) scathingly denounced those of his dem ocratic colleagues who accepted the caucus resolution, disciplining the twenty-three democrats who supported the Fitzgerald amendment to the rules. Those who spoke on the tariff were Messrs. James of Kentucky, Cushman of Washington, Kenney of Ohio, Gillette of Massachusetts, Scott of Kan sas, Peters of Massachusetts, Deikema of Michigan and Hull of Tennessee. IN POLITICS Representative Fred Lundin, of the Seventh district of Illinois, started his career as a newsboy in Chicago. Ormsby McHarg, who is to be as sistant secretary of commerce and la bor, is a young North Dakota lawyer, who has been active in republican polltics for several years. Oscar Eawler, of Los Angeles, at present United States district attorney for the southern district of California, has been appointed assistant attorney general for the department of Interior. Judge William Hayward, who was tendered the position of first assistant postmaster general, has declined that office and will remain secretary of the republican national committee. According to political gossip in Chicago. Lloyd Bowers, general counsel for the Chicago & Northwestern railroad, Is to be appointed to the first vacancy on the supreme court bench of the United States by President Taft. Franklin MacVe.agh, President Taffs secretary of the treasury, has always been a blmetallist and in 189t was nominated by the democratic caucus In the Illinois legislature for United States senator. 25 Cent Dinner BEST OF THEM ALL Hours: 11:30 to 2:00 Short orders and Chop Suey all day long and evening.

URGES THE

SUPPORT 0 Father Jansen of the GaryCatholic Church Tells Parishioners to Subscribe for Local Journals, Instead of Those of Chicago. SEVE RELYllPBR AIDS YELLOW lira Says the Kind of News Matter Dished Up in Some of the Metropolitan Papers Is Bound To Be Harmful to the Younger Class of Readers. Father Jansen of the Catholic Church of Gary is one of the strongest supporters of the Gary newspapers in the city. In a recent sermon on the subject of "The Press," Father Jansen advised all of his parishoners to subscribe for the home papers and to stop taking the papers which come from Chicago. The reasons advanced were many and varied and were appreciated by the people who heard them. The argument which appealed mostly to his herers was the fact that the people of Gary were interested primarily in the news of Gary, and that news of direct interest to the people of Chicago would not be read In Gary. As far as the world news was concerned Father Jansen said that it was better that the scandals and various forms of crime exploited in Chicago papers be not read, especially by the younger people of the city. He said that the brief form in which events of this character are summarized in the local papers was sufficient for the people of Gary. Upholds Local Papers. Yellow journalism, as practiced by some of the papers in Chicago was severely upbraided by Father Jansen, who devoted considerable time in showing how this class of literature was a source of injury to the readers. "Papers of this character," said Father Jansen, "are not so injurious to older neoDle. but when the older people red them they are bound to fall Into the hands of their children. They are influenced by these stories to a certain extent, and the influence is very bad. The local papers are clean and I would advise the people of Gary to red them." PETER STIRLING LOCKS S WITH I. K. B. Redoubtable East Chicago Deputy Street Commissioner Wins. (Special to The Times.) East Chicago, Ind., March 30. The city of East Chicago yesterday locked horns with the Indiana Harbor Belt line, and East Chicago came off with flying colors by virtue of the excel lent fighting qualities of her redoubta ble representative, the Hon. Peter Stir ling, who holds down the job of deputy street commissioner, with ease and dig nity. It all happened about a few cars of crushed stone shipped from Chicago by Dolese & Shepard for use upon Chicago avenue, which is under going repairs. Commissioner Stirling and a gang of huskies descended upon the first car, armed with the necessary paraphernalia for unloading. The freieht agent at Calumet, where the car was standing, noticing the prepa rations that were being made, rushed busily out and demurred. "There Is $17.20 freight owing on that car," he said. "That's what there is all right,' replied Mr. Stirling, with exasperating composure. "We'll have to collect before you un load," replied the freight agent. "That's all right, my boy," said Stirling. "You can get it at the city hall if you care to make the trip. Go on men." The result was that the agent got mad and threatened to arrest the entire outfit. "Who'll you get to arrest us?" demanded Mr. Stirling. "The police." Ilaokn on the PoliceIt was then that Commissioner Stirling took the young man in hand and showed him the error of his way. "Don't you know," said he, sadly but kindly, "that you'd have a h of a time getting the police to arrest this bunch?" The agent then suggested that if the city officials refused to do their duty, he would call the railroad detectives. This made Mr. Stirling mad. "Go as far as yon like," he replied, "and I'll show you a trick worth two of that. Under those circumstance it would become fny solemn duty to call the police myself, and in that case you would see how nobly the police force of East Chicago would answer the call of duty." The unloading of the car then proceeded without further interruption.
