Mr. Bailey so Declares Roosevelt's
Anti-Trust Agitation*
Austin, Tex., April S.—United States
Senator Joe W. Bailey today delivered
an addreaa to the legislature, in which
he highly commended the antl-tru&l
policy of President Roosevelt. Ho de-
clared that this policy was a plank la
the Democratic platform which the
Republicans bad adopted after the cam-
paign. He said the Democrats would
undoubtedly win four years hence, as
when the people want good and yure
principled government they must tiud
It in the Democratic party. Senator
Bailey commended the Texas legisla-
ture on some of the laws it had pass-
ed and said many of them are being
adopted in other and older states.

Governor Myron T. Herrlck of Ohio
Is expected here tomorrow. A resolu-
tion was adopted inviting him to ad-
dress the house.

A resolution was presented in the
house today providing for appointment
of three members of the house md
two of the senate to make a special

A bill was passed Anally in the house
defining the method of computing the
annual franchise tax of domestic <uid
pass his oil bill. There has been some
disposition upon the part of house
members to Ignore this particular line
of legislation, but Senator Decker Is of
the opinion that action will be secured
this week and that once the bill is
taken up that It will be passed. It Is
noteworthy that some of the gentlemen
who were anxious to have legislation
upon this subject at the opening of the
session are not such strong advocates
of the proposition now but they will be
given an opportunity to say why If
Senator Decker and others can manage
to get the ball in motion over in the
house this week.

The silence of the anti-beef trust
committee is merely the lull before the
storm, in the opinion of a great many,
and it is believed by many as outlined
in yesterday's Times Herald, that the
committee Is merely waiting for the
appropriation of $15,000 to set the at-
torney general to work upon matters
that they have In their possession, and
it Is Just possible that incidental to
the passage of the bill making this ap-
propriation that they will settle do.vn
to work once more In order to secure
some additional data that they almost
have their hands on now.

United States Senator J. W. Br.iley
arrived in Austin yesterday morning
from his home at Gainesville. Senator
Bniley has been in Texas since congress
adjourned and will remain for some
time. He is a guest at the DriskiU hotel.
When it became known that he wa s
here, many of his friends called during
the day to shake hands and greet hint.
When seen yesterday afternoon at hla
apartments at the Driskill, he said ne
was here to spend a few days socially
with friends. "I am here to spend a
few day? shaking hands with my
friends in the legislature," suld Sena-
tor Bailey, "and there is no political
significance to my coming to Austin at

of congress Just ended. He will likely
remain in Austin until after President
Roosevelt's visit here. He will likely
be prevailed upon to deliver a short
address to the legislature during his
visit in Austin. He did not care to
discuss politics.

Washington, April S.—(Bulletlnu.)—
The personnel of the new Isthmian ca-
nal commission is as follows: Theo.
P. Shonts, chairman; Charles E. Ma-
Goon, governor of the canal sone; John
P. Wallace, chief engineer; Rear Ad-
miral M. L. Endlcott, U. S. N.; Brig.
Gen, Caines. U. S. A, retired; Col.
Oswald M. Ernst, corps engineer, U. S.
A; BenJ. M. Harrold.
These names were announced at the
war department to-day, and ln connec-
tion with the announcement Secretary
Taft gave out for publication a state-
ment showing the allotments of sala-
ries to the new commissioners and his
own letter to the president and orve
from the latter explaining the plan of
re-organization of the commission, the
reasons therefor and the particular du-
ties to be assigned to each commis-
sioner.
The first reads as follows: The
president has made an order allowing
a salary of $7500 with traveling ex-
penses to each member of the commis-
sion and to the chairman of the com-
mission an additional compensation of
$22,500; to the chief engineer an addi-
tional compensation of $17,500. and to
the governor of the sone an additional
compensation of $10,000. The head of
each department is allowed the use
and furnished a horse upon the Isth-
mus and his traveling expenses when
traveling on business of the commis-
sion. A total of $102,000 salaries and
allowances under the former commis-
sion amounted to $120,000. The total
compensation of the governor of the
sone and chief engineer in effect is un-
changed.
Prof. William H. Burr and Mr. Wil-
liam Barclay Parsons, civil engineers,
will be appointed as members of the
consulting board of engineers.
Secretary Taft's letter to the pres-
ident follows:
War Department Washington, D. C.,
March 10.—Mr. President: In the
matter or reorganization machine by
which the Panama canal Is to be
built I beg first to call your attention
to the extreme Importance of fixing a
definite plan with respect to which you
may feel a reasonable certainty, first,
that It can be practically executed and
the result a navigable canal and sec-
ond, that the navigable canal will be
one best adapted to the demands which
may be made upon it by the commerce
of the world.
The act of congress evidently con-
templates a canal with locks, the cost
of which will be In the neighborhood
of $200,000,000, Including the nioiwy al-
ready expended. It is quite within the
bounds of possibility that the best
form of canal will be a sea level canal
with a tidal lock only at one end and
the cost of It may exceed the $200.-
000,000 tn the mind of congress by at
least $100,000,000 or more.
The work of the engineering depart-
ment of the present commission has
been largely devoted to the obtaining
of data upon which the plan for the
canal must be determined. This data
Includes topographical measurements,
borings, character of soil, flow of wa-
ter In' the rivers, all stnted with suffi-
cient exactness to secure the closest
calculations by experienced engineers
though not on the ground.
It is probable within the next few
months, that data will have been
so fully ascertained by the chief engi-
neer, Mr. Wallace, and assistants, that
they may be submitted to a board of
engineers of high standing for recom-
mends tlon as to the best plan upon
which to proceed with the work.
It Is also been made apparent by the
reports of Mr. Wallace aiul commission
whatever plans are likely to be adopt-
ed the work of excavation and con-
struction which would have to be done
under any plan may proceed without
waste of energy for a period quite long
enough to enable you to decide which
Is the best plan.
I suggest, therefore, the first work
to be done Is the appointment of an
advisory board of engineers, say seven
or nine In number to be selected from
engineers having especially knowledge
of hydraulic engineering and canal
construction, to whom will be submit-
ted nil possible information with re-
spect to the projected Panama canal
both that obtained by the French en-
gineers before our purchase and the
plans and data obtained by the chief
engineer of the commission together
with nil projects suggested for the so-
lution of the problem.
