You Can Speak to a Million
People Every Evening
At the first glance this statement appears so startling that one
might take it for a bit of exaggeration. But it is not; it is literally
true. Here is the proof: The Chicago Daily News sold during the
first eleven months of 1906 a daily average of 318,611 papers. Many
newspapers estimate that an average of five people read each copy of
a newspaper, but, to be conservative, let it be assumed that the number
of people who daily read these 318,611 papers averages three and
one-half. This would place the number of Daily "News readers at
1,115,139 manifestly a fair figure.

There aie about 500 branch offices of The Daily News in Chicago
and its surrounding suburbs for the convenience of "want" adver-
tisers. But Daily News "want ads" are also used regularly or tran-
siently by many people throughout the United States and in foreign
countries. Ordinarily "want ads" from distant cities will receive
good service if sent by mail, but for quick action in an emergency
they should be sent by telegraph or cable If you do not wish to use
your own name and address in your advertisement, you can have all
replies sent to a box number (which the paper will supply) in care of
The Daily News and, on your request, such replies will be forwarded
to you promptly by mail or express.
You will be surprised to learn how thoroughly these little ads
are read by the million daily readers of The Daily News. And they
don't cost much.
[TWENTY-THIRD YEAR]
THE CHICAGO DAILY NEWS
AND YEAR-BOOK
FOR
1907
COMPILED BY JAMES LANGLAND. M. A.
[Copyright, 1'JOG, by The Chicago Daily News Co.]
PREFACE.
Many things occurred in 1906 concerning which questions will
be frequently asked in the future. Among the events of world-wide
or national importance these may be mentioned: The failure of
the first national assembly in Russia, the Morocco conference at
Algeciras, the passage of a bill by the British house of commons
changing the school system of the country, the temporary downfall
of the Cuban republic, the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, the earth-
quakes and fires in San Francisco, Cal., and Valparaiso, Chile; the
passing of the railroad rate, meat inspection, pure food and other
notable laws by the American congress, the admission into the
union of Oklahoma and Indian Territory as one state, the legal
proceedings by the government against the beef, oil and other trusts,
and the election of a new congress. It would be easy to extend the
list, as a glance at the index to this volume will show, but nothing
more is needed to prove that the history of the year was of excep-
tional interest and that a book giving data relating to it should be
of value to those who do not have the time or facilities to search
through newspaper files, magazines and other periodicals for the
information they desire. While much space has necessarily been
devoted to historical matters the regular chronological, statistical,
political and other features of The Daily News Almanac and Year-
Book, whether relating to national, state or local affairs, have been
given careful attention. With the end in view of making the
facts and figures presented not only comprehensive but reliable and
up to date, they have as usual been obtained as far as possible from
official and original sources.

under the months are figures which refer to the corresponding figures at the head of the
columns of days below. F nr Example: To know on what day of the week July 4 was in the
year 18<J5, in the table of years look for 1895. and in a parallel line, under July, is figure 1. which
directs to column 1. in which it will be seen that July 4 falls on Thursday.
1752 same as 1772 from Jan. 1 to Sept. 2. From Sept. 14 to Dec. 31 same as 1780 (Sept. 3-13 were

ECLIPSES OF THE MOON JAN. 29 AND JULY 24-25, 1907.
See page 3 for list
The central standard time of the visible
phases of the eclipse of the moon Jan. 29
and all of the phases of the eclipse' of the
moon July 24-25, 1907, and a figure showing
the course of the moon through the earth's
shadow, are herewith given.
Eclipse of Jan. 29: Moon enters penumbra
at a at 4:4G a. m. ; moon enters umbra at b
of eclipses in 1907.
Eclipse of July 24-25: Moon enters penum-
bra at a at 7:59 p. m., July 24; moon enters
umbra at b at 9:04 p. m. ; middle of eclipse
(c) 10:22 p. m. ; moon leaves umbra at d at
11:41 p. m. ; moon leaves penumbra at e at
0:46 a. m. July 25.
This eclipse will be upon the northern
limb of the moon, as shown in the figure,
ZCLTPJE. OF
JULY 3V- -25
at 6:06 a. m. ; middle of eclipse (c), 7:38 a.
m. The remainder of this eclipse takes
place after the rising of the sun and the
setting of the moon and will therefore be
invisible. The size of the eclipse is 8.5
digits, the moon's apparent diameter being
taken as 12 digits.
the moon passing through the southern por-
tion of the earth's shadow, eclipsing 7.4 of
her 12 digits of apparent diameter. The
diminution of light while the moon is in the
penumbra or light shadow will be slight, the
real eclipse beginning as the moon enters
the dark shadow.
TRANSIT OF MERCURY.
A transit of the planet Mercury over the
sun's disk will occur Nov. 14. The sun will
rise with Mercury well advanced on the
Journey across his face. Look for a black
spot well to the north of the sun's center.
He will pass off at the eastern limb of the
sun at 8 a. m.
Caution Use smoked or colored glass in
observing; otherwise serious damage to the
eyes Is probable.

STATE NICKNAMES AND STATE FLOWERS.
MARS NEAREST TEE EARTH.
The planet Mars will attract the attention
of the world in 1907 because of the fact that
he will approach nearer to us than he has
been within the last' fifteen years or will be
again in the following fifteen years. The
reason for this will be understood by an in-
spection of the annexed figure. When the
points C (aphelion) in the earth's orbit and
A (perihelion) in Mars' orbit come in line
with the sun, then the earth and Mars will
be the nearest possible. A moderately close
approach to these conditions occurs every
fifteen years. In 1907, on July 12, these plan-
ets will occupy the positions in their re-
spective orbits E and F. On July 5 the
earth will be at C or farthest from the sun,
and on Sept. 26 Mars will be at A, or near-
est to the sun. It is apparent that there
must be a point between A and C where
these bodies are in line with the sun and
where they will be nearest, and as has been
said this occurs at E and F.

STANDARD AND LOCAL MEAN TIME.
In 1883 the United States and Canada
agreed to adopt, chiefly for the convenience
of the railroads, a standard of time. For
this purpose the country was divided into
four sections or zones, each fifteen degrees
of longtitude in width, equivalent to one
hour. These sections were designated as
the eastern, central, mountain and Pacific.
The eastern is based on the 75th, the cen-
tral on the 90th, the mountain on the 105th
and the Pacific on the 120th meridian. All
places within seven and one-half degrees
of longitude on each side of these meridians
have the same standard time, but only
those on the meridians themselves have the
same standard and local mean or solar time.
The local mean time of other places varies
according to the distance east or west of
the meridians. East it is later, west earlier.
Chicago, for instance, is in west longtitude
87 degrees 38 minutes, or 2 degrees and 22
minutes east of the 90th meridian. Each
degree of latitude being equal to 4 minutes
of time, the city's local mean time is con-
sequently about 9 minutes earlier than
standard time. In other words, when it is
12 o'clock noon in Chicago by standard time
it is 11:51 a. m. by local mean or solar time.
The difference between the standard and
local time of the principal cities of the
United States is shown in the following
table:

DIFFERENCE IN TIME.
By noting the variation in time between
the cities representing the eastern, central,
mountain and Pacific divisions in the United
States and those in Alaska, Hawaii, Porto
Rico and the Philippines and in foreign
countries the variation in time between all
the other cities in the United States and the
iplaces named may be easily calculated.
The time in all cases except where other-
wise specified is local or actual time.
When It Is 12 o'clocfe noon on Monday,
eastern time, in New York, the correspond-
ing time in the cities named below is:

WEDDING ANNIVERSARIES.
WEATHER FORECASTS AND SIGNALS.
The weather bureau of the United States
department of agriculture publishes dally
more than 100,000 weather bulletins, not
counting the forecasts In the newspapers.
Most of these bulletins are In the form
of postal cards printed by postmasters
from telegraphic reports and sent by them
to outlying towns for display at suitable
points. There Is also an elaborate system of
redistribution by means of telephones and
railroads from established centers, so that
there are comparatively few accessible
places which do not now receive dally
weather forecasts within a very short time
after the observers have completed their
work. The old system of conveying informa-
tion about the weather by means of Hag
displays Is also in general use.

square in center.
Clear or Kain or snow. Local rain or Temperature. Cold wave,
fair weather. snow.
When No. 4 is placed above No. 1, 2 or 3 it Indicates warmer; when below, colder;
when not displayed, the temperature is expected to remain about stationary. During the late
spring and early fall the cold-wave flag is also used to Indicate anticipated frosts.
EXPLANATION OF STORM-WARNING FLAGS.
Northwest winds. Southwest winds. Northeast winds. Southeast winds. "Hurricane 1 ' signal.
A red flag with a black center indicates that a storm of marked violence is expected. The
pennants displayed with the flags indicate the direction of the wind: Red, easterly (from
northeast to south); white, westerly (from southwest to north). The pennant above the flag
indicates that the wind is expected to blow from the northerly quadrants; below, from south-
erly quadrants.
By night a red light indicates easterly winds and a white light above a red light westerly
winds.
Two red flags, with black centers, displayed one above the other, indicate the expected
approach of tropical hurricanes, and also ot those extremely severe antl dangerous storms
which occasionally move across the lakes and northern Atlantic coast. Hurricane warnings
are not displayed at night.
THERMOMETERS COMPARED.
There are three kinds of thermometers,
with varying scales, in general use through-
out the world the Fahrenheit, Reaumur and
centigrade. The freezing and boiling points
on their scales compare as follows:
Therm/iinetcr Freezingpt. ]t<iilinti-r>t
Fahrenheit 32 degrees 212 degrees
Reaumur zero 80 degrees
Centigrade zero 100 degrees
The degrees on one scale are reduced to
their equivalents on another by these formu-
las:
Fahrenheit to Reaumur Subtract 32, mul-
tiply by four-ninths. .
Fahrenheit to Centigrade Subtract 32,
multiply by five-ninths.
Reaumur to Fahrenheit Multiply by nine-
fourths, add 32.
Reaumur to Centigrade Multiply by five-
fourths.
Centigrade to Fahrenheit Multiply by
nine-fifths, add 32.
Centigrade to Reaumur Multiply by four-
fifths.

New Year's, etc., are such by general cus-
tom and observance and not because of
congressional legislation. Congress has
passed no laws establishing holidays for the
whole country. It has made Labor day a
holiday in the District of Columbia, but
the law is of no effect elsewhere.

justice in the proceedings of the examining
boards. The secretary to the commission is
appointed by the president.
General Rules The fundamental rules
governing appointments to government posi-
tions are tound in the civil-service act it-
self. Based upon these are many other reg-
ulations formulated by the commission and
promulgated by the president from time to
time as new contingencies arise. The pres-
ent rules were approved March 20, 1903, and
went into effect April 15, 1903. In a gen-
eral way they require that there must be

litical fund or is subject to dismissal for
refusing to so contribute; that no person in

political action of any person. Applicants

count of his religion or politics. The classi-
fied civil service shall include all officers

ample, they are usually held at Cairo, Chi-
cago and Peoria. The dates are announced

test the relative capacity and fitness to
discharge the duties to be performed. It is

couple were driving back from the church to
the palace, a bomb concealed in a bouquet

In five states in 1892 the electoral vote was divided: California gave 8 electoral votes for
Cleveland and 1 for Harrison and Ohio gave 1 for Cleveland and22-for Harrison: in Michigan,
by act of the legislature, each congressional district voted separately for an elector: in Oregon
1 of the 4 candidates for electors on the people's party ticket was also on the democratic ticket;
in North Dakota 1 of the 2 people's party electors cast his vote for Cleveland, this causing the
electoral vote of the state to be equally divided among Cleveland. Harrison and Weaver.
In 1896 California gave 8 electoral votes to McKinley and 1 to Bryan; Kentucky gave 12 to
McKinley and 1 to Bryan. In Maryland in 1904 seven of the presidential electors chosen were
democrats and one republican.

NATIONAL PLATFORMS OF 1904.
Following are summaries of the principal
features of the national party platforms
adopted in 1904. The full texts will be
found in The Daily News Almanac and
Year-Book for 1905, beginning on page 126.
REPUBLICAN. The platform advocates the
principle of protection and reciprocity, the
maintenance of the gold standard, the en-
couragement of the merchant marine, the
upbuilding of the navy, the exclusion of
Chinese labor, honest enforcement of the
civil-service law, liberal administration of
the pension laws, arbitration, the protection
of American citizens abroad, the reduction
of representation in congress and the elect-
oral college of states in which the elective
franchise is unconstitutionally limited, and
the control of combinations of capital and
labor. The declaration in regard to pro-
tection Is: "We insist upon the mainte-
nance of the principles of protection and
therefore rates of duty should be readjusted
only when conditions have so changed that
the public interest demands their altera-
tion. But this work cannot be safely com-
mitted to any other hands than those of
the republican party."
DEMOCRATIC. The enactment of laws giv-
ing labor and capital impartially their just
rights, trial by jury for indirect contempt,
liberal appropriations for the improvement
of waterways, reductions in the expendi-
tures of the government, honesty in the
public service and the preservation of the
"open door" for commerce in the orient are
favored. The platform declares against im-
perialism and the retention of the Philip-
pines, denounces protection as a robbery of
the many for the enrichment of the few,
and favors the revision and general reduc-
tion of the tariff by the friends of the
masses and for the common weal and not
by the friends of its abuses. Trusts and
combinations are denounced as a menace to
beneficial competition and rebates and dis-
criminations by transportation companies
are declared to be the most potent agency
in promoting and strengthening unlawful
conspiracies against trade. Demands of
the platform include: Election of United
States senators by a direct vote of the peo-
ple; the admission to statehood of Okla-
homa. Indian Territory, Arizona and New
Mexico; the extermination of polygamy; the
defeat of the ship-subsidy bill; the main-
tenance of the Monroe doctrine; the reduc-
tion of the army and army expenditures;
the enforcement of the civil-service laws,
and the defeat of the attempt to revive
race prejudices.
SOCIALIST. The platform pledges the par-
ty to work and vote for shortened days of
labor and increased wages; for the insur-
ance of workers against sickness, accident
and lack of employment; for pensions for
aged and exhausted workers; for public
ownership of the means of transportation,
communication and exchange; for the grad-
uated taxation of incomes, inheritances and
of franchise and land values; for equal suf-
frage of men and women; for the preven-
tion of the use of military against labor
In the settlement of strikes; for the free
administration of justice; for the initiative,
refeiendum and proportional representation,
and for the recall of officers by their con-
stituents. These things, it is declared, are
but a preparation of the workers to seize
the whole powers of government in order
that they may thereby lay hold of the whole
system of industry and thus coine into their
rightful inheritance.
PROHIBITIONIST. The platform pledges
the party, whenever given the power by the
suffrage of the people, to the enactment
and enforcement of laws prohibiting and
abolishing the manufacture, importation,
transportation and sale of alcoholic bever-
ages and favors a rigid application of the
principles of justice to all combinations of
capital and labor. International arbitration,
reform of divorce laws, the final extirpa-
tion of polygamy and the overthrow of
the system of illegal sanction of the social
evil.
POPULIST. It Is demanded that all money
shall be issued by the government in such
quantities as shall maintain a stability in
prices, every dollar to be a full legal ten-
der; that postal banks be established; that
the right of labor to organize shall not be
Interfered with; that laws be passed to
abolish child labor and suppress convict
labor and sweatshops, and that the govern-
ment shall own the railroads and telegraph
and telephone systems. The eight-hour day
is favored and legal provision under which
the people may exercise the Initiative, ref-
erendum and proportional representation
and direct vote for all public officers with
right to recall are urged.
SOCIALIST-LABOR. The platform urges
that a summary end be put to the existing
class conflict by placing the land and all
the means of production, transportation and
distribution into the bands of the people
as a collective body and substituting the co-
operative commonwealth for the present
planless production, industrial war and so-
cial disorder.
BATTLE WITH MOROS NEAR JOLO P. I.
More than 800 hostile Moros were killed
in a battle with United States troops March
6, 7 and 8, 1906. on Mount Dajo, an extinct
volcano, four miles south of Jolo. P. I.
The American losses were eighteen men
killed and fifty-sMx wounded. The attack-
ing troops were commanded by Col. Joseph
W. Duncan of the 6th infantry and the bat-
tle was witnessed by Maj.-Gen. Leonard
Wood and Brig.-Gen. Tasker H. Bliss. The
fighting took place on a steep lava cone
2.100 feet high, which had been strongly
fortified by bands of unfriendly Moros who
had been giving the military authorities
much trouble. The natives fought with fa-
natical bravery and exposed themselves to
certain death in preference to being taken
alive. They used rifles, spears, barongs and
knives and hurled rocks and limbs of trees
upon the soldiers who had to climb up the
last few hundred feet by taking hold of
vines and projections of rocks. The Amer-
ican troops, which included a naval detach-
ment, were credited with great gallantry
and with many individual feats of daring.

Exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii.
Area of Porto Rico is approximately 3,600 and of the Philippine islands 114,000 square miles
(land and water. 832,968).
NOTE The areas as given above were computed under the direction of Henry Gannett,
geographer of the United States geological survey, for the census office. In some cases the
figures vary from those given by the general land office, but they are believed to be as nearly
correct as possible. In the case of states bordering on the great lakes the water surface of
the latter has been included in the computation of areas by the land office and excluded by
Mr. Gannett. This will account in large measure for the apparent discrepancies.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
The famous "Monroe doctrine" was enun-
ciated by President Monroe in his message
to congress Dec. 2, 1823. Referring to steps
taken to arrange the respective rights of
Russia, Great Britain and- the United
States on the northwest coast of this conti-
nent, the president went on to say:
"In the discussions to which this Interest
has given rise, and In the arrangements by
which they may terminate, the occasion has
been deemed 'proper for asserting, as a
principle in which the rights and Interests
of the United States are Involved, that the
American continents, by the free and in-
dependent condition which they have as-
sumed and maintain, are henceforth not to
be considered as subjects for future colo-
nization by any European power. * * *
We owe it, therefore, to candor and to the
amicable relations existing between the
United States and those powers to declare
that we should consider any attempt on
their part to extend their system to any
portion of this hemisphere as dangerous to
our peace and safety. With the existing
colonies or dependencies of any European
power we have not interfered and shall not
interfere. But with the governments who
have declared their independence and main-
tain it, and whose independence we have,
on great consideration and on just princi-
ples, acknowledged, we could not view any
interposition for the purpose of oppressing
them or controlling in any other manner
their destiny by any European power in any
other light than as the manifestation of ah
unfriendly disposition toward the United
States."
THE DRAGO DOCTRINE.
When in the winter of 1902-03 Germany.
Britain and Italy blockaded the ports of
Venezuela in attempt to make the latter
country settle up its debts. Dr. L. F. Drngo.
a noted jurist of Argentina, maintained that
force cannot be used by one power to col-
lect money owing to its citizens by another.
power. Prominence was given to the con-
tention by the fact tha-t it was officially up-
held by Argentina and favored by other
Smith American republics. The principle
embodied has become generally known as the
"Drago doctrine."

MOROCCO CONFEREE
By an agreement reached Sept. 28, 1905,
France and Germany arranged to submit to
an international conference the matters in
dispute between them with relation to Mo-
rocco. France, in 1904, "signed a treaty with
Great Britain by the terms of which the
former was given a free hand in Morocco in
return for concessions to the British in
Egypt. Germany objected on the ground
that her commercial interests were threat-
ened and demanded certain reforms in the
finances and policing of Morocco. France re-
sented the interference and for a time war
seemed imminent.
Under the presidency of the duke of Almo-
dovar the conference began its sessions at
Algeciras, Spain, Jan. 16, 1906. All the
great powers, including the United States,
were represented, the American delegates
being Henry White, ambassador to Italy,
and S. R. Gummere, minister to Morocco.
The other leading delegates were: France,
M. Paul Revoll; Germany, Herr von Rado-
witz; Great Britain, Sir Arthur Nicolson;
Italy, Marquis Viscontt Venosta; Morocco,
Mohammed el Torres; Austria, Herr Kaze-
brodski. The subjects laid before them were
these: The organization and control of the
Moroccan police, the exclusion of contraband
arms, the creation of a state bank to facili-
tate financial reforms, the best means of
collecting revenues, the creation of new
FCE AT ALGECIRAS.
sources of income and the safeguarding of
the economic liberty of the country.
From the start the delegates found the
work of reconciling the conflicting views of
France and Germany difficult and slow. On
several occasions it appeared as though the
conference would be fruitless, especially be-
cause of the divergent views on the question
of policing the ports of Morocco, but an
agreement was finally reached and a con-
vention signed April 7, on which date the
meeting ended. The final article regarding
the distribution of police at the ports was
adopted from the Russian draft, though the
Austrian and American delegates had con-
siderable to do with making it acceptable.
By it France was given the policing of
the ports of Mogador. Safn, Mazagan and
Rabat; Spain was asked to police Tetuan
and Larache, and France and Spain were as-
signed the task of jointly policing Tangier
and Casablanca. The police -force was to
consist of 2,500 natives with Caldsas as com-
manders, French and Spanish as instructors
and a Swiss as inspector-general. The dura-
tion of the police agreement was fixed at
three years. In the settlement of the bank
question France was given three shares and
other nations one each. It was arranged
that four bank supervisors were to be ap-
pointed by the Bank of England, the Bank
of France, the Imperial Bank of Germany
and the Bank of Spain.

THE HOMESTEAD LAW.
Any person who Is the hea4 of a family, or
who is 21 years old and is a citizen of the
United States or has tiled his declaration of
intention to become such, and who is not
the proprietor of more than 160 acres of land
in any state or territory, is entitled to en-
ter one-quarter section (160 acres) or less
quantity of unappropriated public land un-
der the homestead laws. The applicant must
make affidavit that he Is entitled to the
privileges of the homestead act and that
the entry is made for his exclusive use and
for actual settlement and cultivation, and
must pay the legal fee and that part of the
commissions required, as follows: Fee for
160 acres. $10; commission. $4 to $12. Fee for
eighty acres, $5; commission, $2 to $6.
Within six months from the date of en-
try the settler must take up his residence
upon the land and cultivate the same for
five years continuously. At the expiration
of this period, or within two years there-
after, proof of residence and cultivation
must be established by four witnesses. The
proof of settlement, with the certincate of
the register of the land office, is forwarded
to the general land office at Washington,
from which a patent is issued. Final proof
cannot be made until the expiration of five
years from date of entry, and must be made
within seven years. The government recog-
nizes no sale of a homestead claim. After
the expiration of fourteen months from date
of entry the law allows the homesteader to
secure title to the tract, if so desired, by
paying for it in cash and making proof of
settlement, residence and cultivation for
that period.
The law allows only one homestead privi-
lege to any one person.

CARNEGIE INSTITUTION OF WASHINGTON.
SCHOOL SAVINGS-BANK STATISTICS.
Cp to Jan. 1, 1906, the school savings
bank system was in operation in 1,023
schools of 122 cities of twenty-five states of
America. The total deposits in these banks
since they were started amounted to $4,-
864,575.98. of which $3,641.015.66 had been
withdrawn, leaving a balance of $1,223,-
560.32 due the little depositors.
The school savings-bank system was in-
troduced by J. H. Thiry in the schools of
Long Island City (now part of New York),
N. Y., March 16, 1885, and it is largely
through his efforts that it has been adopted
in so many places in the United States and
Cauad*. The purpose of the system is, of
course, to encourage thrift, prudence and
business methods among children at an age
when their life habits are in process of
formation. It has been found to produce
excellent results in this direction and in
many instances parents have profited by
the example yet by their children. The
following figures are taken from a table of
statistics furnished by Mr. Thiry. They
include only places in which the number o'f
depositors is 1,000 or more:

co-operation of institutions now or here-
after established, there or elsewhere, shall
in the broadest and most liberal manner
encourage investigation, research and dis-
covery show the application of knowledge
to the improvement or mankind, provide
such buildings, laboratories, books and ap-
paratus as may be needed, and afford in-
struction of an advanced character to stu-
dents properly qualified to profit thereby."

WRECK OF THE STEAMSHIP VALENCIA.
The steamship Valencia of the Pacific.
Coast Steamship company's line ran ashore
on the west coast of Vancouver island early
on the morning of Tuesday, Jan. 23, 1906,
and was pounded to pieces on the Point
Klanaway rocks. Of the 154 passengers
aboard only thirty-five succeeded in making
their escape. Attempts at rescue were made,
but stormy weather and heavy seas prevent-
ed approach to the wreck and all who re-
mained on the steamer died from exposure
or were drowned by being swept overboard
by the waves. The Valencia was bound
from San Francisco for Puget sound points.
Heavy fogs prevailed and the ship was
steered by dead reckoning. She was far out
of her course when she ran on the rocks.

GREAT MINE DISASTER IN FRANCE.
At 7 o'clock on the morning of Saturday,
March 10, 1906, an explosion of gas occurred
in a coal mine at Courriere, near Calais.
France, just after 1,800 men had descended
the shaft to go to work. Many of them
were instantly killed and others die;i from
wounds or were suffocated. Heroic efforts
at rescue were made and a number of men
lost their lives while attempting to brine;
the few survivors to the surface. The total
number of victims, according to the best in-
formation obtainable, was 1.060. Hundreds
of families were made destitute and there
was great suffering, though the government
voted $100,000 for relief and as much more
was raised by popular subscription.

THE GAYNOR-GREENE CASE.
John F. Gaynor and Benjamin D. Greene,
contractors, were indicted Dec. 28, 1899, for
conspiracy to defraud the United States out
of $575,749 in connection with harbor work
at Savannah, Ga. When indicted they were
in New York and fought extradition to Geor-
gia, bv-t in 1901 they were compelled to re-
turn there. They were placed under bonds
of $40,000, which they forfeited. Taking
refuge in Canada, they resisted extradition
by all legal means possible and it was not
until the latter part of 1905 that they were
brought back to Savannah. The trial began
in January, 1906, acd resulted April 12 in a
verdict of guilty. They were sentenced to
pay a fine of $575,749 and to four years' im-
prisonment.

RAILROAD-RATE LAW.
The "railroad-rate law" amends the inter-
state-commerce law of 1887 and enlarges
the powers of the interstate-commerce com-
mission. The act is made to apply to any
corporation, person or persons engaged in
the transportation of oil or other commod-
ity, except water and gas, by pipe lines,
railroads or ships, who shall be considered
to be common carriers, and to any common
carrier or carriers engaged in interstate
commerce, whether transporting passengers
or freight. The term "common carrier," as
used in the act, includes express companies
and sleeping-car companies. It is the duty
of every carrier subject to the provisions
of the act to furnish transportation upon
reasonable request therefor, and to estab-
lish through routes and just and reasonable
rates applicable thereto.
All charges made for any service rendered
or to be rendered in the transportation of
passengers or property, or in- connection
therewith, shall be just and reasonable;
and every unjust and unreasonable charge
for any such service or any part thereof is
prohibited and declared to be unlawful.
RESTRICTION AS TO PASSES.
No common carrier subject to the pro-
visious of this act shall, after Jan. 1, 1907,
directly or indirectly, issue or give any
interstate free ticket, free pass, or free
transportation for passengers, except to its
employes and their families, its officers,
agents, surgeons, physicians and attorneys;
to ministers of religion, traveling secreta-
ries of Young Men's Christian associations,
and persons engaged exclusively in charita-
ble and eleemosynary work; to indigent,
destitute and homeless persons; to inmates
of soldiers' and sailors' homes; to necessary
caretakers of live stock, poultry and fruit;
to employes on sleeping cars and express
cars, and to linemen of telegraph and tele-
phone companies; to newsboys on trains,
baggage agents, railway mail service em-
ployes, postoffice, customs and immigration
inspectors; to witnesses in which the com-
mon carrier Is interested, persons injured- in
wrecks and physicians and nurses attending
such persons. Passengers may be carried
free with the object of providing relief In
cases of general epidemic or other calami-
tous visitation. Any common carrier who
violates this provision, or any person ac-
cepting a free pass, unless in the excepted
classes, is liable to a fine of not less than
$100 or more than $2,000.
OTHER BUSINESS PROHIBITED.
From and after May 1, 1908, it shall be
unlawful for any railroad company to trans-
port from one state to another any article
or commodity, other than timber and the
manufactured products thereof, manufac-
tured, mined or produced by it. or under
its authority, or which it may own in whole
or In part, or in which it may have any
interest, direct or indirect, except such ar-
ticles or commodities as may be necessary
and intended for its use in the conduct of
Its business as a common carrier.
Any common carrier upon the application
of any lateral, branch line of railroad, or
of any shipper tendering interstate traf-
fic for transportation, shall construct and
operate upon reasonable terms a switch
connection with such lateral, branch line
of railroad, where such connection is rea-
sonably practicable and can be put in with
safety and will furnish sufficient business
to justify it: and shall furnish cars for the
movement of such traffic to the best of its
ability without discrimination in favor of
or against such shipper.
MT'ST FIST RATE SCHEDULES.
Every common carrier shall file with the
commission and print and keep open to pub-
168 CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOB 1907.
lie Inspection schedules showing all the
rates, fares and charges for transportation
between points on its own route and points
on the route of any other railroad when
through and joint rates have been estab-
lished. If no joint rates have been estab-
lished the several carriers in such through
route shall furuish schedules of the sep-
arately established rates. The schedules
shall plainly state the places between
which passengers and property will be car-
ried, and shall contain the classification of
freight in force, and shall also state sep-
arately all terminal, storage and icing
charges and all other charges which the
commission may require. No changes in
the published rates shall be made except
after thirty days' notice to the commission.
Every common carrier shall also file with
the commission copies of all contracts,
agreements or arrangements with other
<-ommon carriers in relation to any traffic
affeeted by the provisions of this act to
which it may be a party.
No common carrier shall charge or collect
a greater or less or different compensation
than that specified in the tariff filed; nor
shall any carrier refund or remit in any
manner or by any device any portion of the
rates, fares and charges so specified, nor
extend to any shipper or person any privi-
leges or facilities except such as are speci-
fied in such tariffs
The willful failure upon the part of any
carrier to file and publish the tariffs or to
strictly observe such tariffs until changed
according to law shall be a misdemeanor
punishable by a fine of not less than $1,000
or more than $20.000; and it shall be unlaw-
ful for any person, persons or corporation
to offer, grant or give, or to solicit, accept
or receive any rebate, concession or dis-
crimination in respect to the transportation
of any property in interstate or foreign
commerce by any common carrier whereby
such property shall by any device whatever
be transported at a less rate than that
named in the tariffs published and filed by
such carrier. Every carrier or shipper vio-
lating this provision is liable to a fine of
from $1.000 to $20,000. Any officer or
agent of any corporation who shall be con-
victed of violating this provision of the law
is liable to imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary for a term not exceeding two years,
or both such fine and imprisonment, in the
discretion of the court.
Any person, corporation or company who
ehall knowingly by any means or device
whatsoever receive from a common carrier
any sum of moqey or any other valuable
consideration as a rebate or offset against
the regular charge for transportation of
property as fixed by the schedule of rates,
shall in addition to any penalty provided
by the act forfeit to the United States a
sum of money three times the value of the
money or other consideration so received;
and the attorney-general of the United
States is authorized to institute a civil ac-
tion to collect the sums so forfeited, and in
the trial of such action all such rebates or
other consideration so forfeited for a period
of six years prior to the commencement of
the action may be included therein.
COMMISSION MAT FIX HATES.
Section 15 of the act of 1887 is amended so
as to read:
"That the commission is authorized and em-
powered, and it shall be its duty, whenever,
after full heaving upon a complaint made
as provided in section 13 of this act, or
upon complaint of any common carrier, it
shall be of the opinion that any of the rates
or charges whatsoever, demanded, charged
or collected by any common carrier or car-
riers, subject to the provisions of this act,
for the transportation of persons or prop-
erty as defined in the first section of- this
act, or that any regulations or practices
whatsoever of such carrier or carriers af-
fecting such rates, are unjust and unreason-
able, or unjustly discriminatory, or unduly
preferential or prejudicial, or otherwise in
violation of any of the provisions of this act,
to determine and prescribe what will be the
just and reasonable rate or rates, charge or
charges, to be thertafter observed in such
case as the maximum to be charged; and
what regulation or practice in respect to
such transportation is just, fair and rea-
sonable to De thereafter followed; and to
make an order that the carrier shall cease
and desist from, such violation, to the extent
to which the commission finds the same to
exist, and shall cot thereafter publish, de-
mand or collect any rate or charge for such
transportation in excess of the maximum
rate or charge so prescribed, and shall con-
form to the regulation or practice so pre-
scribed. All orders of the commission ex-
cept orders for the payment of money shall
take effect \yithin such reasonable time, not
less than thirty days, and shall continue in
force for such period of time, not exceeding
two years, as shall be prescribed in the or-
der of the oonr-nission, unless the same
shall be suspended or modified or set aside
by a court of competent jurisdiction. When-
ever the carriar cr carriers, in obedience to
such order of the commission or otherwise,
in respect to joint rates, fares or charges,
shall fail to a^ree among themselves upon
the apportionment or division thereof, the
commission may, after hearing, make a sup-
plemental order prescribing the just and
reasonable proportion of such joint rate to
be received oy rach carrier party thereto,
which order shall take effect as a part of
the original order.
"The commission may also, after hear-
ing on a complaint, establish through routes
and joint rates as the maximum to be
charged and prescribe the divisions of such
rates as hereinbefore provided, and the
terms and conditions under which such
through routes shall be operated, when that
may be necessary to give effect to any pro-
vision of this act, and the carriers com-
plained of have refused or neglected to
voluntarily establish such through routes
and joint rates, provided no reasonable or
satisfactory through route exists, and this
provision shall apply when one of the con-
necting carriers is a water line.
"If the owner of property transported un-
der this act directly or indirectly renders
any service connected, with such transporta-
tion, or furnishes any instrumentality used
therein, the charge and allowance made
therefor shall be no more than is just and
reasonable, and the commission may. after
hearing on a complaint, determine what is
a reasonable charge as the maximum to be
paid by the carrier or carriers for the serv-
ice so rendered or for the use of the in-
strumentality to furnished, and fix the same,
by appropriate c.ider. which order shall have
the same force &nd effect and be enforced in
like manner ns ;he orders above provided
for in this section.
"The foregoing enumeration of powers
WOKK OF THE 59TH CONGRESS.
169
shall not exclude any power which the com-
mission would otherwise have in the making
of an order under the provisions of this
act."
PROCEEDINGS IN COUHT.
If the commission shall determine that
any party complainant is entitled to an
award of damages for any violation of tho
provisions of the act the commission shall
make an order directing the carrier to pay
the complainant the sum to which he is en-
titled on or before a day named. If a car-
rier does not comply with such an order
the complainant may file in the Circuit
court of the United States for the district
in which he resides or in which is located
the principal operating office of the carrier,
or through which the road of the carrier
runs, a petition setting forth briefly the
causes for which he claims damages and
the order of the commission in the premises.
Such suit shall proceed in all respects like
other civil suits for damages, except that
the findings and order of the commission
shall be prima facie evidence of the facts
stated therein and that the petitioner shall
not be liable for costs. If the petitioner
shall finally prevail he shall be allowed a
reasonable attorney's fee.
Any carrier or representative of a carrier
who knowingly neglects to obey any order
under section 15 of the act shall forfeit to
the United States the sum of $5,000 for each
offense and it shall be the duty of the vari-
ous district attorneys to prosecute for the
recovery of forfeitures. If any carrier fails
or neglects to obey any order of the com-
mission, other than for the payment of mon-
ey, while the same is in effect, any party
injured thereby, or the commission In its
own name, may apply to the Circuit court
for an enforcement of such order. Such
application shall be by petition. If upon
such hearing as the court may deem neces-
sary it appears that the order was regularly
made and duly served the court shall en-
force obedience by writ of injunction or
other proper process. From any action upon
such petition an appeal shall lie by either
party to the Supreme court of the United
States, and in such court the case shall
have priority of hearing and determination
over all other causes except criminal causes,
but the appeal shall not vacate the order
appealed from.
The provisions of the act to expedite the
hearing and determination of suits in equi-
ty, approved Feb. 11, 1903, are made ap-
plicable to suits brought against the com-
mission to enjoin, suspend or set aside any
of its orders or requirements. No injunction,
interlocutory order or decree suspending or
restraining the enforcement of an order of
the commission shall be granted except on
hearing after not less than five days' notice
to the commission. An appeal may be taken
from any interlocutory decree or order
granting or continuing injunction in any
suit, but shall lie only to the Supreme
court of the United States. The appeal
must be taken within thirty days from the
entry of such order or decree and it shall
take precedence in the appellate court over
all other causes, except causes of like char-
acter and criminal causes.
After a decision, order or requirement has
been made by the commission in any pro-
ceeding any party thereto may at any time
make application for a rehearing of tho
same and it shall be lawful for the commis-
sion to grant such a rehearing if sufficient
reason therefor shall be made to appear.
UNIFORM ACCOUNTS REQUIRED.
For the purpose of enabling it the better
to carry out the provisions of the law the
commission may prescribe a period of time
within which all common carriers shall
have, as near as may be, a uniform system
of accounts and the manner in which such
accounts shall be kept. The commission
shall at all times have access to the ac-
counts. If carriers refuse to keep such ac-
counts or to submit them to inspection they
shall forfeit to the United States the sum
of $500 for each offense. Falsification of
accounts or the keeping of accounts not
authorized by the commission is subject to
a fine of not less than $1,000 or more than
$5.000, or to imprisonment of from one to
three years, or to both fine and imprison-
ment.
COMMISSION IS ENLARGED.
The Interstate-commerce commission Is en-
larged so as to consist of seven members
with terms of seven years and each is to
receive $10,000 compensation annually.

MEAT-INSPECTION LAW.
Following is the text of the meat-inspec-
tion law which was passed as an amend-
ment to the agricultural appropriation bill,
unnecessary verbiage and repetitions being
eliminated:
That for the purpose of preventing the use
in interstate _>r foreign commerce of meat
and meat food products which are unsound,
unhealthful, unwholesome or otherwise unfit
for human food, the secretary of agriculture,
at his discretion, may cause to be made by
inspectors appointed for that purpos an ex-
amination and inspection of all cattle,
sheep, swine and goats before they shall be
allowed to enter into any slaughtering, pack-
ing, meat-canning,, rendering or similar es-
tablishment, in which they are to be
slaughtered; and all cattle, swine, sheep
and goats found on such inspection to show
symptoms of disease shall be set apart and
slaughtered separately, and when so
slaughtered the carcasses shall be subject to
a careful inspection, all as provided by the
rules and regulations to be prescribed by the
secretary of agriculture.
That for the purposes hereinbefore set
forth the secretary of agriculture shall
cause to be made a post-mortem examina-
tion and Inspection of the carcasses and
parts thereof of all cattle, sheep, swine
and goats to be prepared for human con-
sumption at any slaughtering, meat-can-
ning, salting, packing, rendering or similar
establishment in any state, territory or the
District of Columbia for transportation or
sale as articles of interstate or foreign com-
merce; and the carcasses and parts thereof
of all such animals found to be sound, health-
ful, wholesome and fit for human food shall
be marked, stamped, tagged or labeled as
"Inspected and passed"; and said inspect-
ors shall label, mark, stamp or tag as "In-
spected and condemned" all carcasses and
parts thereof of animals found to be nn-
sound, unhealthful, unwholesome or other-
wise unfit for human food; and all carcasses
and parts thereof thus inspected and con-
demned shall be destroyed for food purposes
by the said establishment in the presence
of an inspector and the secretary of agri-
culture may lemove inspectors from any
such establishment which fails to so destroy
any such condemned carcass or part there-
of, and said ':ispectors, after said first in-
spection, shall, when they deem It neces-
sary, reinspect said carcasses or parts
thereof to determine whether since the first
inspection the same have become unsound,
unhealthful. umybolesome or in any way un-
fit for human lood.
The foregoing provisions shall apply to
all carcasses or parts of carcasses of cattle,
slicep, swine and prats, or the meat or
meat products thereof which may be
brought into any slaughtering, meat-can-
ninp, salting, packing, rendering or similar
establishment, and such examination and
inspection shall be l.ar! before the said car-
casses or parts thereof shall be allowed to
enter into any department wherein the
same are to he treated and prepared for
meat food products; and the foregoing pro-
visions shall also apply to all such products

WEIGHTS OF DIAMONDS AND FINENESS OF GOLD.
The weight of diamonds and other precious
stones is expressed in carats, grains and
quarter-grains. The grains are pearl grains,
one of which is equal to four-fifths of a troy
grain. Four quarter-grains make one grain
and four grains make one carat. A carat is
therefore equal to four-fifths of four troy
grains, or 3.2.
The- fineness of gold is also expressed in
carats. Pure gold is said to be twenty-four
carats fine. If it contains eight parts of a
baser metal or alloy it is only sixteen carats
fir.e. The carats therefore indicate the pro-
portion of pure gold to alloy. Most of the
gold used by Jewelers is about fourteen car-
ats fine, having ten parts of alloy.

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS.
By order of the president three executive
departments were created headed by Theo-
dore P. Shonts, Charles E. Magoon and John
F. Wallace. The head of the first depart-
ment is chairman of the commission and has
direct and immediate charge of:
1. The fiscal affairs of the commission.
2. The purchase and delivery of all ma-
terial and supplies.
3. The accounts, bookkeeping and audits.
4. The commercial operations in the Unit-
ed States of the Panama railroad and
steamship lines.
5. He has charge of the general concerns
of the commission subject to the supervision
and direction of the secretary of war and
performs such other duties as are placed
upon him from time to time by the secre-
tary of war.
The head of the second department Is the
governor of the zone, with the duties and
powers indicated in the executive order of
May 9, 1904, which includes in general:
1. The administration and enforcement of
law in the zone.
2. All matters of sanitation within the
canal zone, and also in the cities of Pan-
ama and Colon and the harbors, etc., so far
as authorized by the treaty, the executive
orders and decrees of Dec. 3. 1904, between
the United States and the republic of Pan-
ama relating thereto.
3. The custody of all supplies needed for
sanitary purposes and such construction nec-
essary for sanitary purposes as may be as-
signed to this department by the commission.
4. Such other duties ns he may be charged
with from time to time by the secretary of

5. He shall reside on the isthmus and de-
vote his entire time to the service, except

retary of war.
' The head of the third department is the
chief engineer. He has full charge on the
isthmus:
1. Of all the actual work of construction
carried on by the commission on the isth-
mus.
2. The custody of all the supplies and plant
of the commission upon the isthmus.
3. The practical operation of the railroad
178 CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1907.
on the isthmus, with the special view to
its utilization in canal construction work.
4. He shall reside on the isthmus and de-
vote his entire time to the service except
when granted leave of absence by the sec-
retary of war.
While Stevens was appointed chief engi-
neer, he was not made a member of the
commission, and the responsibility which
had been divided between Wallace and
Shouts was all placed upon the latter. The
engineering work is under the immediate
supervision of Mr. Stevens, but under the
general direction of Chairman Shonts.
In September, 1905, a number of eminent
engineers of America and Europe met in
Washington, D. C., to make investigations
and recommendations as to the type of ca-
nal to be built, as it had not been decided
whether it should be a sea-level or a lock
canal. They visited the isthmus and on re-
turning to Washington formulated majority
and minority reports, the foreign engineers
favoring a sea-level and -a majority of the
American engineers a lock canal.
In a message to congress Feb. 19, 1906,
President Roosevelt transmitted the reports
of the board of consulting engineers and the
isthmian canal commission and announced
that unless otherwise directed by congress
he would order the canal commission to
proceed with the construction of the lock
type of canal. The majority of the board of
consulting engineers, eight in number, in-
cluding the five foreign engineers, favored a
sea-level canal, and one member of the canal
commission, Rear-Admiral Endicott, took
the same view. Five of the eight American
members of the board of consulting engi-
neers and five members of the isthmian ca-
nal commission favored the lock canal and
so did Chief Engineer Stevens and the sec-
retary of war. The president concurred in
the recommendation of the minority of the
consulting engineers and of the majority of
the canal commission that the lock plan be
adopted. This was also the view taken by
the members of the 59th congress, which at
its first session passed a bill directing that
a lock canal should be constructed. It was
also determined that all the materials used
in building the canal should be purchased in
the United States.
PLAN OF THE CANAL.
The canal begins in the bay of Limon, a
mile northwest of the city of Colon on the
Atlantic side, with a channel 500 feet in
width and 41 feet in depth at mean tide,
running due south to the shore line of Limon
bay, at the mouth of the Mindi river. This
distance is 4% miles. Then the canal passes
through low and swampy ground in a south-
erly direction 3 miles to the town of Gatun,
the width for this stretch being 500 feet and
the depth 45 feet. At Gatun there is a space
between the hills of over 7.000 feet, through
which the waters of the Chagres river and
its tributaries flow to the sea. This space
is buttressed on either side with rocks and
hills, and about midway in this space there
is a mountain of rock and earth, in which
it is proposed to excavate a diversion chan-
nel through which the Chagres river will
flow during the construction of the earth
dam. The plan is to construct this dam
across the entire space at a height of 135
feet above sea level and create a lake. Ves-
sels are to be raised to the level of the lake,
to be known as Lake Gatun. by three
duplicate locks ranging in a flight of steps.
each lock being 900 feet interior length. 95
feet wide, 40 feet deep over the miter sills,
with a lift in each lock of 28 2-3 feet. These
six locks, constructed of a mass of masonry
and concrete, will be buried in Gatun hill
and founded on rock throughout. Lake
Gatun, when created by the construction of
this dam, will be about 110 square miles in
area and will form the summit level of the
canal, which will be 85 feet above sea level.
The total length of the lake will be 30 miles,
of which 23 miles will be navigated by
ships crossing the isthmus. Its depth will
be about 75 feet in the immediate vicinity
of the dam. this being maintained with lit-
tle reduction to Bohio (a distance of about
10 miles), and thence reducing gradually
toward Obispo. where the depth of 45 feet
will be obtained with but little excavation.
the bed of the river being about 45 feet be-
low the surface of the future lake.
For 15.69 miles above the Gatun locks the
deep portion of the lake will have generally
a width exceeding half a mile, and only a
small amount of excavation will be required
to provide a navigable channel nowhere less
than 1.000 feet wide at the bottom and 45
feet deep. Farther up the lake, as the
amount of excavation required to obtain a
depth of 45 feet Increases, the minimum
width of the channel will be decreased, first
to 800 feet for a distance of 3.86 miles from
San Pablo to Juan Grande, then to 500 feet
for 3.73 miles to Obispo, and to 300 feet for
1.55 miles from Obispo to Las Cascades,
where the channel will be further narrowed
to 200 feet through the heaviest portion of
the great central mass known as -Culebra.
For a distance of 4.7 miles through the
deep portion of the Culebra cut the channel
is to have a bottom width of 200 feet and to
have nearly vertical sides below the water
line, and then will become 300 feet wide
for 1.88 miles to the Pedro Miguel locks,
where the summit level will end. The du-
plicate locks at Pedro Miguel will have one
lift of 31 feet. Passing the locks the chan-
nel will be 500 feet wide for 1.64 miles, then
increasing to 1.000 feet or more for the fur-
ther distance of 3.38 miles to the Sosa locks
on the shore of Panama bay. This broad
navigation will be in an artificial lake cre-
ated by three dams, to be subsequently de-
scribed. There are to. be duplicate flights
of locks on the west side of Sosn hill near
La Boca with two lifts of about 31 feet
each from ordinary low tide to the level of
Lake Sosa. From the Sosa lock to the 7-
fathom curve in Panama bay, a distance of
4 miles, the channel is to be 300 feet wide
at the bottom and 45 feet deep below mean
tide.
The waterway may be summarized with
reference to channel widths as follows:

Total 49.72 100.0
The estimated cost of the canal is $139,-
705.200 and the time for its completion eight
and a half years. It is expected that it
will be open for navigation in 1914 or 1915.

Commanderies have been established In
twenty-two states and territories. Total
membership about 1,700.
The order is a military organization with
patriotic objects, having for its scope the
period of American history since national
independence. It stands for the needed and
honorable principle of national defense
against foreign aggression. The principal
feature of the order is the perpetuating of
the names, as well as the services, of com-
missioned officers who served in either the
war of the revolution, the war with Tripoli,
the war of 1812, the Mexican war or the war
with Spain and all future campaigns, rec-
ognized by the United States government
as war with foreign powers. Veteran com-
panionship is conferred upon such officers
and hereditary companionship upon their di-
rect lineal descendants in the male line.

The Order of the Cincinnati was organized
by American and French officers who served
in the war of the revolution, for the purpose
of perpetuating the remembrance of that
event and keeping up the friendships then
formed. Membership goes to the eldest male
descendant, if worthy; in case there is no
direct male descendants, then to male de-
scendants through inter
