President Favors Letting

WILL RECOMMEND LEGISLATION
Mr Boosovelt Bocoivea a Dologa
tion of Island Business Mon -Early
Enactment to Provide for Per
manent Phuippino Government
It Is the opinion of several of iho lead
ing men in both Houses of Congress who
have been in consultation tilth the Pres
ident and the Secretary cf War during
the last week or two that the legisla
te programme for the earls part of the
session -Rill provide for the enactment of
the long desired laws for the permanent
government of the Philippine Islands
The President will recommend this in his
message It is probable that the Phil
ippines Committee will take up the sub
ject when the Senate is organized and
ready for business
The subject of our relations with Cuba
will alo be strongly urgfd upon Congress
by the President in his recommendation
for reciprocal trade relations in response
to the urgent demands of the Cuban peo
ple through their delegation who talked
with the President and the Secretary of
War yesterday Senator Piatt of Con
necticut the Chairman of the Cuban Com
nitlec has been in Washington for some
tme consulting with the President and
the Secretary of War and he will meet
the Cuban representatives tolay
To Let Ilcnvu the Ilnrrler
It Is understood that the Presidents
recommendation for legislation to let down
the tariff barriers and give Cuba a mar
ket for her products in this country will
be iiulte sweeping It Is not likely that
Congress will be so liberal As a matter
of fact those who will control Cuban leg
islation in Congress are not inclined to
urge the passage of any law until the
Cuban Government is established when a
reciproclt treat can be negotiated If
necessarj to give Cuba the desired
relief
President Roosevelt has it is said
decided not to incorporate In his message
the recommendations of the Cabinet of
ficers that usually form a part of the doc
ument but to hove them published as
aa appendix This will materially short
en the message proper and as it is no v
blocked out it will not mako mora than
twenty hcusnnd words
Ilcpilrcii If Trust nnil Culm
Reciprocity the trusts and Cuba are
the suljects that will command the larg
est share of the Presidents attention

STOCK YARDS LAW ILLEGAL
Court Dcclnre a Kitnsu
Statute I iicriinilItullonnl
The Supreme Court of the Unitil States
todaj handed don an opinion declaring
unconstitutional the law of Kansas fixing
a maximum charge on livestock bv stock
yard associitions in that State
The court was unanimous in the rever
sal ot tbe opinion to the contrary held by
the Lnited States Court for tho District
of Kins is but Justices Harlan Graj
Drown hiras and McKcnna concur in
this acton so far as tho merits of the
case art concerned on the ground that
the statute of Kansas is a violation of
the Fourteenth mendment to the Consti
tution of the United States because that
law applies only to the Kansas City Stock
lards Company and not to other com
panies or corporations engaged in like
business in tho State and thereby denies
to tho compiny the equ il protection of
the laws
Upon the question whether th statute
is unconstitutional because It would de
prive the comniny of Its property without
due proces of law the six Justices named
do not d em it necessarj to express an
oniniou
The Kansas Leg slature in ISO passed
an act fixing the ir iximum charge by live
stork associations for handling cattle
sheep and hog itose rates leing about
5Q per cent les than those then Hun gcI
The act provided such severe penalties
that the Kansas Cits Socic Yards Corn
pans the onlj compiny affected could
not it claimed refuso even for one day to
com pi so that tho constitutionality of
the law could bo tested
Two of the stockholders of the com
pany Cotting and Iligginson however
brought suits against the corporation anl
tho Attorney General of Kansas was made
a pirts to the suits These stockholders
sot up first that under the terms ot the
law it applied only to the Kansas City
Stock Yards Company th3t corporation be
ing the only one transact ng a business
sufficients large to be affected and there
fore it was clas3 legislation
Tho second ground was that by reduc
ing the receipts of tho company 50 pr
cent tho law practically confiscated the
propcrtj without due process of law

Cubans Ink TnrllT Itellef
Cuban business Interests of wide 3cope
were represented in the delegation which
called upon President Roosevelt jesterday
to endorse the petition for reduction of
certain points in tho tariff on articles of
Cuban production But unless the Incli
nation of an apparent majority of the Re
publican partj to avoid any alteration of
the existing schedule disappears there is
small likelihood that the economic and
industrial crisis said to exist in Cuba will
gain any relief in this direction
The petition was a consensus of opinion
of the Cuban business public of all politi
cal creeds and was forwarded to the Pres
ident by Ceajral Wood In It are con
tained five specific points where relief Is
Jestred The first Is that molasses and
sugar up ta No 1G of the Dutch standard
be admitted free of all duty Secondly
lc Is asked that a duty on Cuban tobacco
in wrappers of fl per pound and 20 cents
per pound In unstemmed Oilers be estab
lished in lieu ot tho existing schedule It
Is also asked that 1 50 per pound be the
duty on Cuban cigars and cigarettes
while a 40 per cent maximum ad valorem
duty Is requested for alcoholic spirits and
rum sweetmeats and preserves of Cuban
manufacture The fifth and last point is
merely consequential asking that no In
ternal revenue tax be Imposed which
would annul the above concessions
The delegation consisted of Francisco
Cemba President of the General Society
cf Merchants and Business Men of the
Island of Cuba and Miguel Mendoza Si
