Corrections Chosen at
Final Session.
(Special to The Times-Dispatch).
Danville. Va., January 28.?The State
Conference on Charities and Correc?
tions closed its three days' sessions here
this evening after what is considered a
most beneficial and instructive con?
vention.
The flrst discourse of the night ses
! sion was one upon "Colored Waifs,"
I delivered by Thomas Walker, a negro
I of Gloucester, winch was followed by
1 an interesting, illustrated address on
! "The Delinquent on the Prison Farm,"
I by W. H Whitakrr, Superintendent
of Columbia District Farm. Kvery
phase of the work was shown through
I the stereopticon.
After a brief discussion on the sub?
jects and a gcnerul talk on the con?
ference the election of officers for the
coming year was gone into.
The Rev. W.A Cooper, of Lynchburg,
was elected president ; Miss Louise
F. Price, of Richmond, secretary and
,trea?uror: Dr. Douglas Freeman, retir?
ing president, was elected chairman
of the executive committee: among the

mond; A. Allen and Rev. A. B.Sharp,
of Henrlco. The post of secretary
I treasurer, hitherto seperate ofOces. was
was merged to-night
I The Rev. James Buchanan, of
Richmond, and Mrs. Buchanan, ad?
dressed the conference during the morp
mg session upon the topic of the scope
and necessity of charity organization
Mr. Buchanan dealt thoroughly ssith
the theme in an hour's speech, and
maintained that the State is in a large
measure responsible for the numbers
of people dependent upon society for
support. Miss May Sayre, of Lynch
burg, discussed at some length the
work of charity at large, particularly
commending the colored people for
their active co-operation.
During the afternoon. Dr. H. H.

and Dr. A. S Priddy. of the State |

BRYCE WARNS NATION
OF CERTAIN DANGERS
Initiative, Referendum and Re?
call Not Suited to This
Form of Government.
iSpecial to The Timee-Dispatchi
Charlottesville. Va.. January 28.?
Ambassador Bryce showod the danger
of the initiative, referendum and re
l call, especially under such a system of
government as ours, in his closing lec?
ture on the Barbour-Page foundation
! at the I'mversity of Virginia to-day. He
ajeo pointed out the fallacy of ussuming
that just because a man is a high
I minded, honorable citizen, that he is
j consequently fitted to go to Congress
'or the State Legislature.
As to the initiative, referendum and
'recall. Mr Bryce declared that the
judgment of the crowd, hastily reached
and irresponsibly passed. was far
; iess valuable, and far more dangerous
! to the safety and sanity of our institu?
tions and laws than the judgment of
carefully chosen representatives. lie
also spoke earnestly of the danger in
popular elections of having only a small
percentage of the electorate voting.
Another big point that the atnbas
sador emphasized in drawing certaiTi
conclusions for modern lawmakers and
voters from the successes and failures
of ancient Borne, was that the represen?
tatives sent to make laws for the people
in State and nation sfsnuld be chosen not
merely for uprightness of character,
i but also because of gifts that would

Bankers. Perhaps the greatest gift of'
the legislator, he said, was the posses?
sion of a constructive mind
Cabell Hall was crowded with stu
dents, professors and guesls of the
university when Mr. Bryoo walked upon
the stage He was preceded by Dean
lames Morris Page, who introduced
him last night and this aCernoon with
well chosen and appropriate words of
weJoeaM and appreciation. Then came

Washington. January 28?The light
over President Taft's appointments
was on in earnest in the Senate to-day.
and for six hours Republicans and
Democrats battled behind closed doors,
the former demanding action on the

Democratic Senators consistently re- !
fused to take up the nominations in
regular order and professed themselves
willing to take the blame for the delay
at action on the lex or more pending
appointments. Opening of the Re- j
publwan fight came after a caucus early
in the day at which it was determined
to for-e t he issue against the Democrats
and compel them cither to yi? id in their
opposition or to openly adopt methods
of delay and obstruction.

filibuster intimations were given to?

Conference Between Wilson and
Democratic Members of
State Legislature.
Trenton. N'. J.. January 2*?Presi?
dent-elect Wilson and Democratic mem?
bers of the N'ew Jersey Legislature had
a two hours conference this afternoon
behind closed doors on a program to
be followed at the present session With
respect to measures to which the Demo?
crats are pledged In the State |
form
Only four subjects were discussed,
and all of these were not Anally settled.
Another < onferenr e is to be held a week
from to-day. when attention will be
given to the matters not finally disposed
of to-day. and also to the other sub?
jects which were not taken up at all.
The conference discussed briefly
Governor Wilson s seven antttrust bills,
further consideration of whi> h was de?
ferred until the meeting next week.
It was decided that a constitutional
convention should t>e held, but the
has;<= ol representation was left to be
decided later. The matter is apt to be
fought out on the floor of the Senate
and House, where the Republicans
would have a voice in the matter.
Senator Davis, who had charge of the
corporation bills, had a long talk with
the Oovernor earlier in the day wttgj
regard to the question of having public
