Mi CB NIL WILL BL IPENED BY JMUARY, 1115 Committee Well Pleased With Inspection of Work in Zone. Report Soon IT RAIPH BMXTX. CHARLESTON. 8. C., Dec. 30.—The committee on interstate and foreign com merce, headed by Chairman W. C. Adamson, of Georgia, landed at Charles ton Friday' night, when the steamship Cristobal touched at this port en route from Panama to New York. Judge Adamson. Congressman Hardwick and their immediate relatives left Charleston for their respective homes and will report In Washington in time for the reassem bling of congress next Wednesday. Sev eral of the party remained aboard th< ship and will go with it to New York, and thence to Washington. Among them were Congressman Samuel J. Tribble, Mrs. Tribble and Miss Tribble. The committee left New York on De cember 10. and reached Colon, Panama, on the morning of the 18th. One week was spent on the isthmus. Inspecting the canal, works, examining witnesses and sightseeing. Col. Georgt W. Goethals, chairman and chief en gineer of the canal commission, was at the Hotel Tivoli, in the American city of Ancon, on the Pacific side of the isthmus. Returning, the Cristobal sailed from Colon last Sunday at noon. The voyag< in both directions was pleasant and there was comparatively little Blcknesf among the 48 people who composed th> party. Fifteen of them were Georgians as follows: GEORGIANS ON BOARD. Judge Adamson, Reese Adamson, Con gressman Hardwick. Mrs. Hardwick, Mis Mary Hardwick, Congressman Tribble Mrs. Tribble, Miss Ruth Tribble Uma Tribble, Willis J. Davis, of Newnan cleric to the committee; Robert Speer of Macon, official stenographer; Judg Price Gilbert, of Columbus; John Cor rigan, Jr., of Atlanta; Ralph Smith an< Mrs. Smith, of Atlanta. Others In th< party were Congressman Stevens am wife, of Minnesota; Congressman Ste phene and wife of Texas; Congressman Driscoll and wife, of New York;! Con gressman Covington and wife, of Mary land: Congressman Doremus, wife an< son, of Michigan; Congressman Hamil ton and wife, of Michigan; Congressman McLaughlin, of Michigan: Congressma’ Knowland and wife, of California; Con gressman Borland and wife, of Missouri Congressman Gould and wife, of Maine Congressman Hamlin and wife, of Mis sourl; Congressman Martin and wife, o Colorado; Congressman Esch and daugh ter, of Wisconsin; Congressman Sims am wife, of Tennessee; Congressman Raine? and wife, of Illinois; Congressman Sab bath, of Illinois; Congressman Bqwinan of Pennsylvania; Congressman Millei of Minnesota. Several clerks and secre taries accompanied the party. COMMITTEE PLEASED. Chairman Adamson, the members o the committee and the other congress men in the party were gratified at th progress and character of the work be Ing done on the canal. They have bee. convinced not only that the nuuntnot. engineering feat will be a success, bu they are likewise assured that the cans will be ready for operation and opei to the commerce of the world by Jan uary 1. 1915. The committee's trip to the canal wa> well timed, both as to convenience am practicability. At no earlier date wouL It have been worth while to hold th> hearings at the seat of the canal opera tions and at no later date would it have been practicable to Inspect the big work Judge Adamson and other members o the committee as well as tHpse who fa miliarized themselves with the details o the work and the problems involved li the operation of the canal are satisfies as to these points. Judge Adamson, who is the only mem ber of the present committee, who servec on it when the canal project was inti mated by congress, feels a deep interest in the great work, more especially be cause he haa consistently advocated the construction of an interoceanic canal ever since he entered congress. Indeed, be was the patron of canal bills long before the Panama foute was formally and finally adopted. • In his capacity as dean of the commerce committee and its chairman, he has watched the work on the canal with close attention, and has ever been familiar with its progress. WILL PLAN LEGISLATION. The committee's trip to the canal has justified the wisdom of the chairman’s counsel for deliberation in the prepara tion of legislation for the regulation of the canal zone and the operation of the canal itself. To have acted earlier would have been a mistake. This is the consen sus of opinion among the congressmen, yet the committee is now in position to legislate in time a plenty and with due Intelligence upon these important sub jects. TIED DOWN 20 Years’ Slavery—How She Got Freedom A dyspepsia veteran who writes from one of England's charming rural homes to tell how she won victory in her 20 years' fight, naturally exults in her tri umph over the tea and coffee habit: "I feel it a duty to tell you,” she says, "how much good Postum has done me. I am grateful, but also desire to let others who may be suffering as I did. know of the delightful method by which I was relieved. "I had suffered for 20 years from dys pepsia, and the giddiness that usually accompanies that painful ailment, and which frequently prostrated me. I never drank much coffee, and cocoa and even milk did not agree with my impaired digestion, so I used tea. exclusively, till about a year ago,- when I found in a package of Grape-Nuts the little book, •The Road to Weliville.’ "After a careful reading of the booklet I was curious to try Postum and sent for a package. I enjoyed it from the first, and at once gave up tea in its favor. “I began to feel better very soon. My giddiness left me after the first few days’ use of Postum, and my stomach became stronger so rapidly that it was not long till I was able (as I still am) to take milk and many other articles of food of which I was formerly compelled to deny myself. I have proved the truth of your statement that Postum *makes good, red blood r "I have become very enthusiastic over the merits of my new table beverage, and during the past few months, have conducted a Postum propaganda among my neighbors which has brought benefit to many, and I shall continue to tell tny friends of the 'better way' in which I rejoice.” Name given by Postum Co- Battle Creek, Mich.

Clinton St., ' .'f|l NEW ORLEANS CLEARINGS REACH $1,011,000,000 NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 30.—Bank clearings for this city for the year coming to a close will total more than $1,011,000,000. This is the second time within the history of this city that its clearings have passed the billion dol lar mark during 1906 the total bank exchange having been recorded as sl,- 8J8.052.305. This is regarded as surprising in view of the prevailing low cotton prices.

James is from Washington, D. C-, and was headed for Tampa, Fla., giv ing exhibitions at various places en , route. He was to have gone from here to Dublin. WOULD RETIRE TO GIVE FRIEND HIS POSITION NEW YORK, Dec. 30.—Anxious to re ward a fellow fireman who rescued him at a fire ten years ago. Louis T. Hauck, battalion chief of the Brooklyn fire de partment, has presented to his superiors a request for immediate retirement on half pay. His friend and rescuer. George J.

COMMITTED SUICIDE TO PREVENT HIS ARREST COLUMBUS, Ohio, Dee. 30.—With po lice officers surrounding his house and two officers hammering at the doors, George D. Moore, a boilermaker, aged 50 years, evaded arrest late yesterday by blowing off the top of his head with a shotgun. Moore, who was the father of six children, recently served a work house sentence of six months on a charge of non-support. His wife yesterday filed complaint against him, alleging that he had driven members of his family from the house at the point of a gun. MEDIATION TO SOLVE C. & 0. LABOR TROUBLES RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 30.—Failure to reach an agreement in the matter of the 15 per cent increase demanded by the telegraphers of the Chesapeake and Ohio railway today caused both sides to con cur in a proposition to submit the whole question to Martin A. Knapp, of the commerce court, and Charles P. Neill. United States labor commissioner, for mediation. A strike vote submitted to the Chesapeake and Ohio branch. Order of Railway Tedegraphers, on December 14, showed that the 800 members were unanimous in demanding an increase. A number of conferences have been held and while the company offered an in crease of 5 per cent it was rejected by the men. In an effort to adjust the matter the telegraphers scaled their demands from 15 to 12 1-2 per cent, which the com pany in turn rejected. OLD SOLDIER BEATEN TO DEATH IN HOME ANDERSON, S. C., Dec. 30.—“A dead j man is in this house’’ were the words written on a small piece of paper tacked on the door of the little store room of D. Sutto, located just across the city limits, that attracted attention and caus ed the sheriff to be notified this morn ing. On investigation the dead body of Sutto was found an a small cot in the rear of the room, his head smashed to a pulp. The indications are that he was hit over the head several times with a blunt instrument. His brains were scat tered all over the floor. He is survived by his wife and chil dren, all of whom lived in another part of the city. His body was carried to the morgue, where the coroner will hold an inquest. VOTERS WANT TRIALS INSTEAD OF FINES BRISTOL, Tenn., Nov. 30.—Voters in Lee county, Va., who have been indicted on the charge of selling their votes In the recent election, have decided to stand trial rather than take advantage of Judge Skeen's offer of a minimum fine in ex change for a confession. Many of the indicted men have been advised by counsel that the state will be unable to convict them, having only the evidence of the confessed brive-giver in each case on which to proceed.
