President Stevens Announces

Seven Hour Schedule.

Senator Carleton Says People, Not Attorneys, Must Run State.'

Evansville, Ind., May 26. At a meeting of th Eransrllle Accountants' and Credit Men's association, held here. State Senator William B. Carleton made an address on "Some Impressions or the Indiana Legislature." He crltlclted the number of lawyers in the legislature and said In part: "In the last session of the state senate were twenty-seven lawyers. Twenty-six senators' constitute a majority or enough to pass any bill. I have nothing In particular against lawyers, but I believe we send too many of them' to our lawmaking bodies. These lawyers are always looking for a precedent. If a good bill Is Introduced In the legislature these lawyers will look back for .two or three

hundred years for a precedent and if they fall to mind a precedent you can depend on them being,. against the

measure.

"I believe every lawyer member of

the state senate last winter had from

one to a dozen bills, practically all o

which were for the benefit of their

class, such as the creation of new

courts and the raising of salaries for

prosecuting attorneys and other court officials. I contend that twenty-seven

lawyers have no more business In the

state senate than twenty-seven manu

facturers, twenty-seven labor leaders

or twenty-seven from any other trade of profession. I hope In the future to see both of the leading political parties nominate fewer lawyers for the legis

lative positions.

"I was impressed with what William

Jennings Dryan recently said in a lecture in this city. He said that back of

every large Illegal corporation or trust

In this country you would always find

the brains of some lawyer. . He argued

that the man who held the horse for

the highwayman while he looted an ex

press car, to enable the robber to get

away, is just as guilty In the eyes of the law as the thief himself. I believe Mr. Bryan Is right, and the lawyer who sells his talents and gives advice to

tome unlawful trust Is as morally gull ty as the trust itself."

Senator Carleton said at the present rate owing to the efforts of the lawyers in the legislature there would soon be a court at every crossroads,

giving fat Jobs to lawyers. "This must stop," said the senator,

"The people, and . not . the lawyers.

must and will run this state and na

tion." 1

Cincinnati, Ohio, May 26. Presi

dent George W. Stevens, of the Chesapeake and .Ohio, with headquarters

Richmond, Va., arrived in the city

and left yesterday for an Inspection trip over the Chesapeake and Ohio of Indiana, between this city and Chica

go. Mr. Stevens will look over the

double track worke being done between Peru. Ind., and Chicago, which

will cost the road more than $1,000.-

000. The work of double tracking the

Indiana subsidary between this city

nd Peru is about completed. This

work was started last summer and has

cost In the neighborhood of $1,000,000.

It Is expected the work of double

tracking on the road will be completed by next fall.

On his way to Cincinnati from Rich

mond. Mr. Stevens inspected the dou

ble tracking, 97 miles in all, that Is

being done on the Cincinnati division of the main line of the C. & O. This

work, the money for which was recent

ly authorized in the sum of $2,000,000

will also be finished by next fall. This will give the C. & O. a double track line between Chicago and Newport News. Virginia.

While here President Stevens will

also look after a new entrance for the

Indiana line into the city, a problem

hat has the officials and engineers of

the road stumped Too much time Is

lost getting In and out of the city, 30 minutes being consumed In getting to

he first station out of Cincinnati, a

distance of sixteen miles. How to get

trains in and out without this waste

of time has been bothering the road

every since the Indiana line was added

to the C. & O. Engineers have declar

ed that either one of two plans is feas

ible to tunnel under Price Hill, or to

secure the right of way across country to the Mlllcreek valley and then into

the city. It is estimated that either plan will cost at least $5,000,000.

The completion of the double-track

ing of the C. & O. of Indiana next fall, will put the officals of the road face

to face with another problem. They

will have a seven hour road between Cincinnati and Chicago, compared with eight hour roads of competing lines.

Will these competitors stand by and

allow the Indiana line to maintain a

seven hour schedule when they can

not make it in lees than eight? It Is expected that the ultimate result will

be an agreement not to run trains over the C. and O. of Indiana faster than

eight hours between Cincinnati . and Chicago, or to allow the shore line a differential.

Mr. Stevens announced that his vis

it to Cincinnati had no significance, as he was merely inspecting -the road and

its Hoosler subsidary.

RIGHT OF APPEAL THE JOBBERS ASK Wholesale Grocers Draft Resolution on the Detention of Imports.

Indianapolis, May 26. The National Wholesale Grocers association, at the close of Its convention Thursday, adopted resolutions recommending that its executive committee cause a bill to be introduced In congress providing for an appeal to federal courts

in case Imports are detained at ports of entry by the federal authorities as

being in violation of the national pure food and drug act. The wholesale

erocers contend that they have no

recourse whenever goods are detained. The National CJvic Federation was

commended for its work in establish

lng in each state committees on uniform laws, the efforts of which have been directed toward obtaining from the various legislatures uniform laws

relating to bills of lading, negotiable

instruments, warehouse receipts, pure

foods and drugs and other legislation

of common commercial necessity.

"The past five years," said the resolu

tions, "have brought about a revolu

tion in the manufacture, packing and

branding of food products." The resolutions pledged the mem

bers of the association to obedience to the pure food law and to assist in

nunishine those who violated it. The

policy of uniformity among the states

In pure food legislation was reaffirm

ed and uniform weignts ana measures

legislation In the states was urged, not

to be consummated, nowever, until after a federal law has been passed.

A federal standards commission was

urged.

The association declared In favor

of one-cent postage and for the Stev

ens bill In congress amending the pure

food law to provide heavy penalties for misrepresentatlng welghtB ajid meas

ures in handling packages.

The resolutions approved the efforts

of the uniform trades commission to obtain new weight or tare allowances on all products now sold gross for net, and requested that coontlnued efforts

be made to secure this result on all domestic and Imported nuts, seeds, beans

and similar products.

Several hundred delegates and their

wives attended a theater party last

night in their honor.
