NO MORE PASSES A.[Editors Must Buy Railroad Titkets Like Other Folks TilE RULING OF THE COMMISSION Chairman of Inter-State Commerce Comxiiission Writes, in Reply to Protest From Massachusetts Press Association, That it Seems Plain to the Commission That the New Law Permits Payment for Services of Inter-State Carriers Only in Money. Washinon, specia.-Under a ru ing of the inter-State commerce com mission, transportation over railroad lines no longer may be given to news paper publisners of editors in ex change for a-ivertising space in thei newspapen5. A protest against this ruling has been received by the commission from the Massachusetts Press Association. The association unanimously voted t* "enter i*s protest against the report ed ruling in holding that the payment for railroid transportation at full rates in advertising shall be treated on any oticr basis than that of trans portation paid for in Cash." In a letter to Secretary Hefferman. in response to the protest, Chairman Knapp, K the commission, says in part, after quoting the section of the I law which prohibits the issuance o. free tra:sportation paid for in any other v:av than In eash: "Yon :re, of course. aware that all tariffs flmed in compliance with the regulating statute name rates in dol lars and cnts and do net in any case providoe tha transportation can be paid fo~r with property. It seems plain to the commission that the jaw above qtted. coupled with the fact stated, permits payment for services of intCr-Sta.te carriers only in moinev. "This ruling of the comsion in no wrv iterfercs with or abridges the rights of private contracts. News papers and their advertising space may be freely exchanged for any species of property upon such terms as may be acceptable to the partic to the transactio:n, but the facilities I of the publie carrier are not private property, nor are- they the subject of bargain and sale like merchan dise. The right to travel or have property carried by rail, like the right to the common highway. is not a con tract right but a plitical right, the very essence of which is equality. "Conceding that the advertising arrangemnents in question are ordi narily made and carried out in good' faith, it seems plain to mec that these arrangements must as a practical matter involve some measure of- dis erimination, anld it is not easy for me to see how an honest newspaper can seriously object to a ruling of the conmssion which appears to be in obvious accord with . the provisions and the purposes of the regulating statute." President Takes A Hand. Washington, Special. - President Roosevelt has derected Victor Hi. Metcalf, Secretary of the Department of Commerce and Labor, to proceed to San Franciseo and make a thro ough and' complete inquiry into the situatiom~ atiecting thle exclusion of Japanese children from the school&, provided for white children and the determination to place Japanese pu pus in separate schools.

DEATH IN BIG lIRE Many People Cremated When Tenement House Burned PROPERTY LOSS ALSO HEAVY Four Story Building of Brick and Stone' in Kansas City, Kan., Con taining 200 or 300 Men, Women and Children, is Destroyed at Early Morning Hour, Estimates of the Dead Varying Widely. Kansas City, Mo.. Special.-In the ruins of the chamber of commerce building in Kansas City, Kan., de stroyed by fire early Thursday, there are anywhere from half a dozen to 30 bodies, according to estimates given cut by firemen. The actual loss, or, life will not be known until a thor ough search of the ruins can be made. probably not then, as some of the firemen assert that a number oi bodies must have been burned to ashes. The building. used as a tenement house and containing 100 rooms, held, as near as can be learned, between 200 and 300 persons at the time the fire broke out at 12:30 o'clock. Most of these composed families, many others were transients, whose names are un known. Of the injured, scattered among half a dozen hospitals and at private hormes. 25 were more or less seriously hurt. Two or three of these at least, will die. The total financial damage is esti mated at $100.000. Of this amount, $60.000 was on the building, which was owened by IV. A. Bunkec. The building was insured for $40,000. Of Brick and Stone Alone. The ehamber of commerce build ing was situated at Park and Central streets, in the River View District of Kansas City, Kan. The structure was four stories in height, with a deep basement and faced the two streets. It was built of brick and stone alone. It contained one hundred rooms, almost. all of which were, as far as can be learned, occupied by families or individual laboring men or railway employes at the time the fire started. The ground floor was occupied by W. A. Lovelane's barber shop, Ed ward T. Summers' drug store. Central Avenue Gas Fixture Company, Mrs. Belle Wagner's restaurant, the Smith Overall Laundry, and The Labor Record. The fire broke out on the ground floor from some unknown cause. When the firemen arrived the entire building was in flames. So quickly did the filames spread that a few min ntes after the fire was discovered all means of escape by the stairways, for the scores of occupants, was cut offt On two sides of the building the ele vated railway tracks hemmed it in and made still harder work of the firemen.

Meyer. Ambassador to Russia, Will Be Postmaster Gcneral and Oscar S. Straus, Fermer Minister to Turkey. Will Succeed Metcalf.

George B. Cortelyou. "Postmaster General-lon. George Von L. Meyer. "Attorney General-SHon. Charles J. Bonaparte. "Secretary of the Navy-Hon. Vic tor H. Metcalf. "Secretary of Commerce and Labor -Hon. Oscar S. Straus." The general understanding for some time has been that Anorney General oodv will retire on the 1st of the !umincg January and that Secretary Shaw will follow him on the 4th of March. On the first of the year, therefore, Mr. Bontparte. who is now Secretary of the Navy, will succeed Mr. Moody as Attorney General and. he will in turn be succeeded by Mr. Metcalf, the Secretary of Commerce and Labor, the latter's place being filled by Mr. Straus.

The appointment of Mr. Straus caused considerable surprise as it will be the first ease where a citizen of the Hebrew faith has been made a member of the President's vabinet. He was born December 3rd, 1850. and is well known as a merchant, diplo mat and author. He represented the United States as minister to Turkey on two different occasions, and was appointed by President Roosevelt to ll the vacancy c:.used by the death of ex-President Harrison as a mem er of the permanent Court of Arbi tration at The Hague. National Bank Circulation. Washington, Special.-Aeting Sec retary Keep of the Treasury Depart ment announced, that the applications for inecase in the national bank cir ulation under Secretary Shaw's offer wvill be favorably acted upon in the order in which they arc received at the Treasury. If, however, the nat ional bank should apply for an in rese of two or three millions or even less, it probably would be neces sary, in the interest of, the smaller banks, to grafmt the application as to only a part of the sum asked for. and so extend the provileges confer red by the Secretary's oider to as large number of banks as possible.
