From Washington. Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette.] Washington, March 27. In a signed editorial in the American Federationist, Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, sets forth clearly the view which his organization takes of the arrest of the officials of the Western Federation of Miners for the assassination of exGovernor Steunenberg, of Idaho. In describing the arrest of these men, he says the governor of Colorado had, withconsented to men taken to ing out forcibly hearing, Idaho, these arrested be- by the Idaho authorities in the dead of night, put on a "special train," carried from their home State to a foreign State and there lodged in prison without the opportunity of communicating with each * other, their families, or counsel. The charge against the imprisoned men is a very grave one, but there are due forms of law by which the guilt or innocence of men charged with crime is estalished ; as well is there provided the lawful process by which such men may be extradited and taken to the State whose laws have been violated. The whole procedure is repugnant to the Anglo-Saxon conception of human justice." The Comptroller of the Currency has received a telegram from the assistant cashier of the First National Bank at West Texas, that it has closed its doors. National Bank Examiner Logan has been appointed receiver. The resources and liabilities of the bank at the date of its last report of condition, January 29, 1906, were $157,506,54 each. President Roosevelt this afternoon sent a message to Congress on the subject of preservation of Niagara Falls. He recommends that Congress enact into law the suggestions of the American members of the International Waterways Commission for the preservation of Niagara Falls, without waiting for the negotiating of a treaty. The prospects of ship subsidy legislation at thissession of Congress are gradually growing more remote. Speaker Cannon has given no encouragement to the New England members who sent a delegation to urge him to give consideration to the measure which has passed the Senate and which has been pigeonholed with the House committee on merchant marine and fisheries, of which Gen. Grosvenor, of Ohio, is chairman. The feeling in the committee is by no unit. On the contrary, it is 80 that are closely means a divided, those who claim op- a posed to ship subsidy legislation victory on the ground of an alleged tie in the committee. They say that the vote stands nine to nine, and that because of this fact it will be impossible to carry a motion to report the bill to the House. The races at Benning were again well attended today, the weather being an improvement on that of yesterday. In yesterday's races the Virginia horses did well.
