DBS MOINHS , Nov. 10 ( Special Tele
gram ) The Bt-vto executive council today
held a meeting for the discussion of the
icccnt revelations that states adjoining lown
have been systematically sending their pau
per Itmne indents into low.i and getting
them cired for nt the expense of this state
At the conclusion of the meeting Secretary
of State McParland stated that the councl
was s tUfled that fully 300 Insane people
were being supported In Iowa , who had been
xpnt into the state from llllno's. ' Nebraska
and Missouri. The plan Is to bend them Into
an Iowa county , from which they are sen ;
to the asylum as nonresident patients am
tiie state is compenc i to pay lor tneir sup
port , at the rate of $14 pftr month.
The council determined that hereafter the
state will charge rich county with the ex-
psnse of supporting all patients sent from
it to btatu Institutions , whether they be res
idents of the county or not. The county
officers , It Is charge J , have been In the habit
of allowing themselves to bo made parties
of the scheme to swindle the state , because
they nrp allowed fees for all pitlents they
take to the asylums. The now arrangement
will put an end to the practice.

DCS MOINHS. Nov. 19 ( Spec'al )
Shlri' ° ra of Iowa and planning to demand ot
the next legislature some Important legisla
tion on the railroad rate question. The
movement Ins originated with the jobbers
of the Inland Iowa towns , and Is spreading
to the 'manufacturers and all lines of bus
iness. ' . The shippers willJ mnnd the pissage
of n law tint will compel all roads In the
state to put In joint rates. > The Interstate
roads all grant such rates , but many of
the Iowa roads have stejdfastly refused to
do so , and the resjlt Is that Iowa jobbers
are kept out of a large part of their own
state , while houses In Chicago , I'corla and
St. Louis are able to do the business. ADen
Don Molnes jobber , for Instance , In making
a shipment to a point in southeast Iowa
finds that he must send It part of the dis
tance over the Hock Island and then turn
It over to the Iowa Central or some oilier
line. The Rock Island charges Its full local
rate to the junct on point , and the other
road makes a like charge over Its line. The
jobbers claim that they should bo given n
single through rate lower thin the sum of
the locals. The Interstate traffic Is
based on such through rajes , and Iowa deal
ers , have found It Impossible- compete
against the advantage which this arrange-
"
"ment gives to points outfclde the state. The
towns on the western border of the state ,
which do a largo volume of their business
west of the state's borders , have not suf
fered from this so seriously as have those
In the interior and on the eastern boundary.
It is expected a meeting of the shippers 01
the state will be held here some time before
the opening of the session to make arrange
ments for advocating such a iiioisure ns is
desired , and to raise funds to push It. A
lobby will be maintained at the capital till
the measure la acted on.
