JUDGE MODIFIES ORDER
All Pupils Who Have Vaccination Certifi
cates Mat Ee-enter Sohool.
REHEARING OF )nc CASE GRANTED
Advornlti of Homeopathic Method
Given Intll End of School
Year to Present
Rrldrner,
Federation of labor 'Meeting.
Tha program for the State Federation
of Labor convention has not been made
public, but Is expected to be some time
this week.. The locaT committee from the
Trades' and Labor assembly Is making
active preparations for -the entertain-,
ment of the visiting delegates,- who are
expected t-j number ; several hundred,, and
it Is understood that a. banquet will be
on feature of the hospitality extended
the . visitors. ..'.-.
President A. L. Urlck of the State Fed
eration of Labor has appointed the fol
lowing, as the committee on credentials
for th convention: G. F. Tucker of Clin
ton. J.- W. Taylor of Council Bluffs, and
Qua F. Mil In of Des Moines.
Tho sessions, according to present ur
ransements wlll'oe held In Labor temple.
on South. Main street unless tho hull j determined.
Should "prove Inadequate, when another
meeting place will be secured.
As had been anticipated, Judge Green
yesterday Issued an order modifying his
decree in the vaccination case, and pupils
who have been vaccinated by the Internal
or homeopathic method will be pet milted
tu return to school today until the close
of the fchool year.
Judgti Green spent Sunday In Council
Bluffs and handed down his decision In
the hearing held before him at Logan
Saturday In the afternoon, so that It
could be made public In time to allow the
pupils who, on account of Internal vac
cination have been kept out of school, to
return to their studies this morning Tho
order, however. Will In the court records
boar date as of today.
Judge Green's order of modification of
the former decree Is as follows:
An application has been filed on the part
of the plaintiff for a modillcatlon of the
uecreo herein und an Inunpendcnt action
hus also been commenced by K. Canning,
on behalf of himself .and numerous otneis,
to set asl-'e the decree and reopen the cas
for trial upon a matter not before heard
by the court. Pending the deposition of
the petition lat referred to, the petitioners
ask an order suspending the action of the
uecree. Both of these matters have been
presented to the cuuit, and now come on
lor deter initiation.
The application of the plaintiff represents
In substance that the epidemic of smallpox
in Council Bluffs, if any there was, nan
ceased to exist; that owing to the uncer
tainty as to whether parties who were not
representee on the former hearing of this
case were precluded by thj decree, and
the fact that these parties have com
menced proceedings to have the decree set
aside: about 9mi children are out of school,
nnd the work of the schools thereby, both
lis to those children out and those attend
ing. Is greatly hampered nnd injured.
The petitioners In the other case allege
that they were not lepresented and had
no opportunity to be represented on the
trial of this ciise; that they desire to pre
sent to the court new matter which was
; not before the court, and upon which no
nearing was lino; ana mat tney nave been
deprived of their rights without having
their day In court.
The situation with reference to the
schools seems to be much as claimed by
the School board, but this would not en
title the plaintiff to a modification unless
the other parties have some rights which
the court ought to respect.
With reference to tne claims of the peti
tioner who are asking a rehearing, It
may be said thn'. this action In its incep
tion was one on the part of the school
board to enjoin tho enforcement of the
regulations of the Board of Health. I'pon
a demurrer to the petition being sustained
the plaintiff dismissed its petition. This
would have left nothing to be tried, but
for the fact that the defendant had in
the meantime died a cross petition asking
for a mandatory Injunction to compel the
enforcement of the said regulations. Upon
the claim of defendant's attorneys that
an emergency existed, no objection being
made thereto by plaintiff, the caus went
to trial upon Its merits, although ordi
narily It would not have been euoject to
vail until the November term. Uf this
situation It appears that the petitioners
had neither knowledge nor notice.
. While, ns a general rule, a decree against
a body which represents the- public gen
erally is binding upon the Individuals so
represented, courts of equity are loath to
cut off the rights of any individual with
out giving him an opportunity to be heard.
The reason of this rule Is that each citizen
Is presumed to have notice of the suit that
resulted In the decree, nnd miR'ht. If he
desired a hearing, to intervene thelrln and
ask It. Yet, wnere It satisfactorily up
pears, as here, that no such opportunity
existed, the court may. In Its discretion,
allow the parties so deprived of a hearing
to move to reopen the case. Whether this

t the morning service that a meeting of
the congregatl6n would be held Monday
evening. May 8, at which tlmo he would
formally tender his resignation. Although

of the congregation. Mr. Barnes declined
to make any statement until the meeting
of the congregation, but lie Intimated that
owing to his health, which had not been
of the best for some time, he contemplated
retiring from the ministry temporarily. He

l regard as immaterial and my conclusion
is that these petitioners should be granted
an opportunity to be heard upon reasonable
terms as to a speedy hearing, not later
than In the month of June next, and that
until such hearing the provisions of the
decree as to the method of vaccination
should be suspended. Appropriate orders
will be entered In conformity with this
opinion, as of date May 1, 19u6.
President Hess of the Board of Educa
tion, when he learned of the modification
of the former order yesterday afternoon,
was not altogether satisfied with It. He
stated that he had hoped that Judge Green
would have permitted the return to school

Failure Places Certain Part of Path
finder Scheme In Uncertainty.
CHEYENNE, Wyo.. April 30.-(Speclal.)
Word comes front Guernsey that an
attempt to locate bottom on the Pathfinder
dam near that city has resulted in failure.
After going down ninety feet In a second
attempt the diamond drill crew sent out
by the government found nothing but
sand, but It Is the belief of parties who
are in touch with the reclamation service
and who know something of the partic
ulars regarding the Pathfinder project i . .i.
bottom will be located eventually in ur
above the narrows.
Failure to locate bedrock at a reason
able depth has placed this particular part
of the scheme In a state of uncertainty
for the time being. The final outcome
will, however, doubtless be Hid same.
The Alcova and Whalen i'.....is will be
rushed to completion as fast us possible.
The Guernsey dam U so much larger.
however, that more time will be required
In perfecting plans for Its construction.

Movement for i.-.. Acquiring the
Iteanlar Inspection of Private
Hanks by tbe Auditor
of State.
(From a Stan o. tespondent.)
DES MOINES. April ah.-(Speclal.)-The
publication of the story In Everybody's
magazine on the Beef trust In which thu
bank failures In Iowa are touched upon
and the responsibility for the failures laid
at the door nf the Beef trust has been the
subject of wide discussion for the past sev
eral days at the state house. While the
statements are grossly exaggerated the fact
Is recognised by many of the state officials
that there have been altogether too many
bank failures ond the situation Is one that
demands remedy. While the Beef trust
probably had no more to do with the bank
failures than tne ten commandments, yet
there should be legislation to prevent the
occurrence of so many failures In the fu
ture. At past sessions of the legislature
tho matter of requiring all banks In the
state to Incorporate and be subject to regu
lar Inspection by the auditor of state has
been suggested and bills presented, but they
have never been pressed and sooner or
later the matter has been dropped.
The State ' Bankers' association Is ac
cused of getting cold feet, and not urging
the enactment of the law with as much
fervor as it might. It Is claimed by state
officials that If the State Bankers' asso
ciation would make a determined effort
tho bill would bo passed. The bankers'
association Is controlled by the Incorpor
ated bank. There are about 670 state and
savings banks and 300 national banks. There
are about 560 private banks. A movement
is on foot now with the bankers' associa
tion to draft a bill and present the mat
ter to the state convention here In June
and, it Is claimed, that the movement now
is backed with greater determination than
formerly.
In the past twenty-eight months there
have been failures of about forty private
banks and seven state and three national
banks in the state have failed during the
same length of time. While there are a
little over half as many private banks as
there are state and national banks, there
wen four times as many failures. It Is
claimed at the same time that the Incor
porated banks were due to defalcations and
other legalities, while the private banks
were due largely to Indiscreet Investments,
which would have been prevented had the
state auditor been inspecting the banks
regularly. It is claimed that with state
supervision of the banks nearly all but
the failures from thefts and dishonesty
could be eliminated and much of the latter
prevented. '
State Work Flourishing
During the past two weeks the State
Board of Cntro1 M been on lts annual
tour of inspection of all the state Institu
tions: On their return the members re
ported that the population of . the Insti
tutions a a whole Is larger than ever be
fore. At Clarinda arid Mount Pleasant the
Institutions are- running ovef The clar
lnda hew cottage was to fcave been com
pleted by next fall, but the collapse of the
roof will delay that considerably and no
relief can be had there for, some time. The
Fort Madison penitentiary Is also full and
work on the new buildings there haa
started. The library and hospital are near
ly. completed, and will be occupledisn about
six weeks. At all the state Institutions
the farm work is progressing nicely and
the members of the board expressed con
fidence in the coming crops. The old power
house at Fort Madison Is being turned Into
a kitchen and storeroom. .
Relics for Historical Bnlldlnff.
Through Kinsman post the historical
building ha received a number of guns
from the war department In Washington.
There are two gatllng guns with car
riages and two Hotchklss guns and one
slx-pounder, besides shells and other relics.
From the adjutant general' office In the
state house the historical building has lately
secured a sword that Is supposed to
have once been the property of Lafayette.
Another is known to have been pwned by
General Kinsman.
InvestlBnte Beef Trust.
Tho federal grand Jury will meet In this
city May 9 and at that time It is declared
will take up the Investigation of the Beef
trust. It la known that District Attorney
Miles has been carrying on an Investiga
tion, and the fact that none of the Iowa
witnesses have been called to Chicago Is
taken as evidence that the investigations
are to be made In the states where thu
law is violated.
Ottomwa Wants Meeting.
Ottumwa is preparing to make an effort
to secure the 19Ci convention of the State
Federation of Labor. The annual conven
tion will be held in Council Bluffs May 9,
and the Ottumwa laboring men are solicit
ing the business men there for support to
secure thu next convention. Oskaloosa on
the other hand wants the next biennial
convention of the Iowa Federation of Wom
en's Clubs. A committee will be sent to
Waterloo May 10 to present the matter.
Woodmen Meet Here.
The state camp of the Modern Woodmen
will be held In thiu city beginning Tues
day. The candidacy ut C. 11. McNider of
Mason City has been launched for head
banker of the nntlonal organization, and
there Is likely to be some lively' fighting
over the position. Mr. McNider will be
indorsed at the Iowa convention. For the
state offices there are a number of candi
dates out. It l.i understood that Senator
Saunders will retire from the bonrd 0 di
rectors It Is expected that Head Counsul
Talbot will be Dresint.
Hyatt lu the llnee.
Captain N. P. Hyatt of company G of the
Fifty-sixth tegl.nept cf Webster City has
at last decided to lie a candid Ue for major,
to succeed Major Hlle, whose term expires
this year. The names of a number of
others have been susgested for the position.

hus been In full swing lor the last few
Uajs, and today the Rosebud, whk'h was a
barren prairie a year ago, .is literally alive
with humanity and Is dotted from one end
to tho other of the tract allotted by ths
government with new homes, the dwellings
cf m-tlleis from all over the country.
By virtue of tho extension which wis

Donestee! business Interests have been
thriving as a result and the man who, fore
seeing the pasplng of the Rosebud bill,
came Into' this county two years ago,
.picked 'up a lot pnd fettled down In a little
store, has reaped a fortune for hi reward.
Lruig loads pf white lumber may be seen
leaving the yards here at ull hours of the
day or night and tralnl':ad after trninload
of '.nateriai has bei-r. shipped In. One lum
ber company -sold $27,000 worth cf board,
this week and others have prospered pro
portionately. And there Is not an end to
li yet. As one old frontiersman from the
southern part of tho county, who hud been
farming on a small scale for several years,
put It, when he returned home from llono-
steel, "That town Is all right, but they dr
be awful behind with their haulln'."
Contrasts Well with Nebraska.
The contrast between the rtorebud, a vir
gin prairie six months since, and the lu g
settled Nebraska territory a few mile to
the south, Is a marked cne now. On the
reservation not a quarter section of land
can be found which is not lived on, with a
house there, while In Nebraska, where one
ranchman often owns many hundreds of
acres of land, there are stretches for miles
at a time where ro building can be seen.

Earnest A. Jackeon, son of tho former
Iowa governor and son-in-law of Federal
Judge Munger, has been appointed federal
land commissioner at Dallas by Jjdge Car-
land of Sioux Falls.
The recent federal decision regarding tha
sale of Intoxicants to the Indians has been
received here with . Intense Interest, as a
large number of cases against Rosebud sa-'
loonkeepers were pendinr. The lightening
of the saloon man's burden has brought hl.n
relief, ,and the relief Is almost universal
as there Is acurcely a .ealoon on the whole
reservation and there. are a lot of them
that has not sold llrjuor to the red men.
"They ull sell It io the Indians, cf course,"
said one nonesteel salcHirt man today.
"And why shouldn't they? The Int'lan Is
