BOARD TO CONTROL SCHOOLS
Conning Leptlatnre Likely to Do a Little
Merging Along Official Linei
PROPOSITION WAS UP LAST ( SESSION
Present System of Separate Board for
Each Institution Held to Be
Cumbersome, Uxpemalre
nnd Inefficient.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Nov. 21. (Special.) Plans
are already being laid to secure the passage
by the coming general assembly of Iowa of
a bill to create a . board of managers or
regents for the three state educational
Institutions of the state to take the place
of three cumbersome boards which now
control them separately. A bill was In
troduced in the last legislature looking to
placing the State university, the State col
lege and the State normal school all under
one management. It Was reported on fa
vorably toy the judiciary committee, then
amended and sent back agnln and as it
.came late in the session that committee
contented' Itaetf wtth commending the pur
Pe of ?thL ro'eaaure .and . recommending
that a similar bill be Introduced early In
the next legislature that Its merits might
be fully considered by the body. The au
thor of the bill, M. L. Temple, has been
re-elected to the house and he will head the
ways, and means committee of the house,
while the chairman of the Judiciary com
mittee, who reported it favorably at the
last session, O. W. Clarke, will be speaker
of the next house. ' It Is therefore certain
that the bill will receive- good treatment.
Jt la learned that some of. the most influen
tial' of the members of the present boards
managing these institutions are now fa
voratle to the one board idea and that
many of the members of the faculties of the
Institutions favor the change. The State
Board of Control has some supervision over
the finances of the three state educational
Institutions, but nothing of the general
management, and the Board of Control is
anxious to be relieved of any connection
whatever with the educational institutions.
The governor and state superintendent
would be ex-offlclo members of the Board
of Regents for some purposes, but the
board will consist of three or five mem
bers who will be paid a salary and will
havo full control of the three great Insti
tutions. Directory Census Again.
The new city directory of Des Moines,
issued tody, makes the usual showing of
wonderful growth and prosperity for the
city. It shows an Increase in the number
of persons listed of S4 per cent and the
directory estimate of present population Is
6,000, or an Increase of nearly 6,000 in one
year.
November SO has been set as the date for
the preliminary trial of the cruiser Des
Moines over the Cape Ann course.
Will Go to Urake Funeral. .
Governor Cummins and a party, of state
officials have arranged for a special train
over the Rock Island to go to Centerville
on Monday to attend the funeral of ex
Oovernor Drake, which will be held in the
afternoon. It is probable that the faoulty
and friends of Drake university will also
go In a special train to attend the funeral.
It was learned today that the reputed will
of Oovernor Drake made several years ago
is not his last will, but that his last, will
was drawn by himself, alone and unaided,
and that no person is familiar with its con
tents. It is therefore a matter of mere
conjecture what his gifts are to the uni
versity. Call for Bank Statement.

Cotton Goods Very Freely Owing;
to Outlook for Higher Prices
on Many Lines.
Activity characterised the trade last
week on all seasonable s:ooris The coltl
weajher was undoubtedly responsible for
the change and both retailers and Jobbers
report business heavier than at any time
within the last six weeks or more. Stocks
In the country went to pieces at a rapid
rate, which brought In a flood of fllllng
In orders to local wholesalers. There la nr
doubt now In the minds of merchants but
what they will do a better business this
winter even than they did a year ago.
Farmers, and. in fact, all cIrssas nf nen-
ple, are not cramped for ready money
and for that reason It Is argued that they
win ouy more ireciy man ever oerore.
Many lines that a few years ago were con
sidered luxuries are now thought to be
necessities.
Pr ent Indications are that the holiday
trade will be a record breaker. It is a
little early yet to tell what the final out
come will be, but dealers In those lines
predict an exceptional demand.
Advance orders for surina continue to
arrive In large numbers and In fact Job
bers say they are running considerably
ahead of Inst year. The healthv condition
of the markets and the favorable outlook
tor a continued heavy consuming demand
helps traveling men to land the orders
early In the season.
I here have been about the usual numle
of market changes during the week under
review. None of them, however, has been
of a very startling nature, and the general
situation is verv mucn the same as It
was a week ago.
Cnbnn Bill Weakens Bugar.
Wholesale grocers renort the market on
granulated sugar a trlOe easier than It
was a week ago. The balance of the line,
however. Is unchanged. The general im
pression seems to be that this decline may
have been brought about by th Cuban
bill now before congress. Indications are,
however that a reaction will occur In the
near future.
Since the advent nf cold weather twain
have firmed up considerably and prices
are 6$rl0o per bushel higher than they
were a week ago. Cheese also shows a
slight advance owing to a brisk demand.
i tie corree marnet has been rather Ir
regular, but prices range atwiut 15 points
higher than a week ago, with all Indica
tions favorable for still higher prices In
the near future.
Prices have not shown much rhinni on
canned goods, but tomatoes continue easy.
There Is very little corn obtainable, how
ever, at any price, though here and there
a lime is onerea at prices that would
have seemed prohibitive thirty davs mq.
Canners have opened the market on fu
ture corn with prices ranging 12fl5c
higher than the opening prices last sea
son. While there seems to be an agree
ment among canners as to prices, they
look entirely too high to the majoritr of
buyers. At the same time- very heavy
contracts are reported on that basis.
Dried rrults are without material change.
The demand, though. Is exceedingly good
and covers the entire line.
The rice market Is still In a very strong
position and prices sre Sic above the low
point. Mnny well posted buyers are of the
opinion that these low prices will not last
long and that the trade will take bold
very freely on the present basis.
A very heavy demand for flsn ts looked
for during the latter part of December and
January, owing to the fact that the Ianten
season opens very early next year. The
market shows- mcuh strength-and that Is
particularly true of cod and mackerel and
higher prices are generally anticipated.
Holland herring has stiffened considerably
and prices are W4c per keg higher than
those ruling a short time ago. The market
on Imported sardines Is nearly bare of fine
goods. Almost anything In the way of
French fish finds ready sale st prices Sl.M
to ID per case higher than those paid four
months ago. Jobbers say there Is abso
lutely no remedy until the new catch ar
rives on the market next year. Even then
the price will depend upon, the amount of
fish taken.
Local wholesalers report the demand for
all staple and seasonable lines nf groceries
ss being very heavy and beUer than a year
ago.
Better Demand for Dry Goods.
Local iobry.rs report the demand for dry
goods as heing better last week than for
some time past. The cold weather. It
seems, helped the trade on falLspeclalties
with retailers and Jobbers both, u'tie move
ment or blankets, flannels, aomets, noiery
and underwear and all that class of goods
ts very brink. Retailers' stocks are now
going to pieces at a rapid rate and jobbers
look for a good sorting up business from
this time on.
Advance business Is also In very satisfac
tory condition, with local houses ss travel
ing men are meeting with better success In
landing svrlng orders than they did a year
ago, which Is the same as saying that they
are breaking all previous records.
The market ts In the same healthy condi
tion It has been for some time past. Manu
facturers are asaing nignrr prices lor low
B-rarie bleach roods and browns of all
weights. There has been no change, though.
In prints or seasonable fabrics of any de
scription, although new prices of prints
have opened with shorter discounts. The
general Impression Is that as the season ad
vances higher r rices will rule on cotton
goods of most descriptions.
Collections are reported as being consid
erably better than they were a short time
ago, owing, no doubt, to the Improved de
mand In the country.
Carriage Bolts Still Going; Down.
The only change In hardware of any Im
portance during the week under review la a
decline in ine price or carnage nous
amounting to about 10 per cent. All kinds
of bolts. In fact, are a little lower than
they have been, but a break In prices has
been expected for some time, owing to the
fact that they were forced up higher than
innpral conditions would warrant. Other
staple lines of hardware are selling In Just
about tne same noicnrs mey were a weea
ago, and no very material changes are
looked for In the near future.
The demand for all cold weather goods
has ereatlv Improved during the last week
or ten days. Stoves in particular have heen
moving out very freely, wnicn, of course,
means that all such lines as stovepipe.
stove boards, elbows and coal scuttles have
also been In good demand. There has also
been a big rail for skates and a snowstorm
would bring in a nooo or oroers ror sieigns.
Wholesalers, ss well as retailers, seem
well nleased with the trade they are hav
ing, and, in fact, no complaints of any kind
are heard.
Footwear Selllngr Freely.
Boot and shoe men report a very good
trade and leather goods. That, however,
has been the cause nil the fall, as both
retailers and wholesalers have been very
aareeablv surorlsed at the demand they
have been experiencing. The cold weather
has stimulated the demand attll more and
sizlng-up orders with Jobbers are mere nu
merous man ever.
ilvan orders for spring are also com
ing In lively, as the good trade retailers
have been having apparently makes them
willing to anticipate their orders mors than
usual.
There has also been a big Improvement
in the demand for rubber goods, such as
arctics. 1Mb lacK or cold weather up to
the last week or ten days has made trade
en that class of goods very light, but It
looks now as ttiough the demand would
be heavy enough to make up for lost time.

The scarcity of turkevs nnd consequent

PRESENT HEARING MAY LAST A MONTH
Three Witnesses Were Examined
Yesterday nnd Cnse Has Only
Reached First Specification of
Charges Against OfBcer.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 21 When the sen
ate military affairs committee resumed to
day Its Investigation. of charges against the
confirmation of General Leonard Wood to
be major general, Herbert J. Browne, a
newspaper man, who was In Cuba during
the American occupation, was called as a
witness. Mr. Browne told the committee
that he had obtained the affidavits made by
shareholders of the Jal Alal company,
which had ben filed by Major Rathbone.
In the affidavits the shareholders declared
their stock hod been assessed for the pur
pose of paying the cost of presents which
were given by the gambling establishment
to General and Mrs. Wood.
Members of the commlteo took gseat in
terest In these charges and questioned the
witness concerning the affidavits. Mr.
Browne was questioned also in regard to
the charge that General Wood knew the
character of the Jal Alal when he argued in
favor of granting it a concession to oper
ate. When reference to this charge was made
by Mr. Browne he was asked by Senator
Cockrell to substantiate his assertions. He
did so by directing attention to official pub
lications In Havana newspapers showing
the nature of the Jnl Alal establishment.
These statements Included a copy of the
company's bylaws and it was declared that
these had been suppressed by General
Wood In his statement to the War de
partment concerning the establishment.
The ground gone over by Mr. Browne Is
covered in the general statement of charges
filed with the committee by Major Rath
bone. It was expected Browne will again
be called before the Investigation is con
cluded. Rathbone Again on Stand. -
After Mr. Browne left the committee
room Major Rathbone resumed bis state
ment where he left off yesterday. He was
examined closely in regard to his charges
that General Wood used coercion and undue
Influence wtth the courts in getting Instruc
tions which were unfavorable to Major
Rathbone on his trial in connection with
the postal fraud cases. .
One member of the committee stated 1o
day that he believed nearly a month will
be consumed In the Inquiry Into the charges
filed againtt General Wood. ,
In the three hearings given Major Rath
bone the committee has reached only the
first specification of his charges.
Ernest Lee Conant a New York attor
ney, who went to Cuba as an attache of the
evacuation committee, was '.called by the
commission this afternoon and told of his
connection with General Wood in ths capa
city of a legal adviser.
Secretary Root, in response to a 'request
from the military committee, has sent a re
port on the military career of General
Wood. It Is a strong commendation of that
officer. The secretary points out that he
was first an officer and then became a sur
geon. When a surgeon he asked and ga ned
command of troops in the Geronlmo cam
paign and in this connection he appends
letters of commendation by General Miles
and the late General Lawton. Ha also
points out General Wood's services during;
the Spanish war and calls attention -to the
fact that he has been Ave times named as a
general officer, twice as a- brigadier general
of volunteers, once as a major general of
volunteers, once as a brigadier general In
the regular army and again as major gen
eral In the regular army. Secretary Root
In his letter does not make any reference
or reply to the charges that have b;en
made sgalnst Oeneral Wood as military
governor of Cuba.
Testimony of Conant.
Mr. Conant told of a telegram which "was
sent from Havana to New York while the
granting of a concession to the establish
ment was pending. The story of the tele
gram was told to Mr. Conant by G. Lawton
Chllds, a shareholder In the Jal Alal. He
said that Pedro Galbls, secretary of the
establishment, went to New York to pur
chase a silver dinner set for General Wood
and while there was ordered not to make
the Investment until notice of the granting
of the concession was printed in ths Gatstte
at Havana. The concession was granted, a
telegram sent and according to Mr. Conant
the purchase made at a cost of (5,100. After
considerable discussion the committee ruled
this testimony out of order. Galbls Is dead,
but It is said the telegram can be pro
duced and offered to the senate. The re
quest has been made that the committee
subpoena a number of army officers who
served In Cuba with General Wood, but
thus far no action has been taken by the
committee in this direction. The methods
of"procedure are those of a court of Justice,
with the members of the committee serving
as court snd Jury.
"If General Leonard Wood were on trial
for his life he would not receive instruc
tions from the court more favorable than
the rulings which have been made by the
senate military committee In the conduct
of the present investigation," said a mem
ber of the committee tonight when asked
concerning the methods used in dealing
with the various witnesses examined. The
fight will be transferred to the floor of the
senate, notice of this having been given to
a member of the committee by ene of the
senators who Joined in the protest against
General Wood's confirmation to be a briga
dier general.
