Yean Men Accused of Cruelty.
HUMBOLDT. Neb., Jan. 12. Special.) A
story comes from Nemaha county to the
effect that two young men, one from Hum
boldt and one from Auburn, are being
sought for by the humane element of Ju
lian, a small town In that county, with a
vlev to punishing them for leaving a driv
ing horse out In the storm which prevailed
the fi'st of last week while they sought
shelter from the elements. It' Is claimed
the young men were driving from Nebraska
City to Auburn when the storm became so
fierce that they were compelled to atop at
Julian, and their horse was so fatigued
from the hard drive that it became ex
hausted v.-hen nearlng the village and was
abandoned to Its fate. . The next morning
residents of that neighborhood found the
animal hitched to the rig sheltered by a
hedge. The harness was loosened, but the
animal staggered and fell Into a ditch near
at hand and died there. One of the young
men appeared later and claimed the rig
and the harness, which was in the hands of
a harness dealer to whom it had been sold
by someone who removed It from the horse
the second night. The identity of the party
from this city is unknown, and it is thought
the people of Julian may be mistaken aa to
the home of the parties involved In the oc

FEABODY BEGINS CONTEST
awMSBBaaana
Charges that Adams' Plurality for Got-
ernsr is the Besult of fraud.
TWO DEMOCRATIC SENATORS UNSEATED
Men Seated by Democratic Majority
Two Yeara Ago Daring a Sena
torial Contest Removed
. from Ofllce.
DBWEK, Jan. 12. Notice of former
Governor James H. Peabody s contest
against Governor Alva Adams tor the
office of governor, was filed witn tne
leglslsture today. The complaint sets forth
the allegation that the majority of 9,771
for Adams on the face of the return as
finally canvassed was obtained by. means
of a conspiracy in Denver and several
other counties. The legislature Is petitioned
to open the ballot boxes from a number
of precincts in Denver, Adams, Las
Animas, Boulder and Conejos counties. It
Is alleged the frauds In these precincts
were so extensive and varied that it would
be possible to segregate the true from
the falsa ballots and the legislature Is
asked to discard these precincts altogether.
It Is charged that a padded list of 10,000
names was listed in Denver on election
day and that the registration books con
tained at least 15,000 false, fraudulent and
mythical names. It Is further set forth
that 10,000 votes were cast by repeaters
In this city.
Charges of ballot box stuffing, substitu
tion o prepared ballots for those cast by
ths voters and miscounting by election
judges are also included In the specifica
tions of fraud. Another charge ia that In
odrer to defeat Governor Peabody ballots
already marked with a cross for Adams
were handed by the election officers to
voters who were known to be republicans.
Peabody asks to have ninety-five Denver
precincts tnrown out aim tidimi iui mo
vote of this county snouia enow o.wai piu-
rality for h.m instead of 4.m for Adams. ,
as canvassed.
The accusation Is made that In, Pueblo
1,200 aliens were voted for Adams In nine
precincts and that 300 republican voters
were prevented from casting their votes
through the acU of watchers appointed by
the district judges.
Democratic Senators Unseated.
The senate today by a party vote seated
James B. Dick In place of Senator Robert
M. Born. Dick waa unseated by the dem
ocratic majority during the contest over
election of United Stales senator two year
ago.
Senator Bom refused to give up his seat
and was forcibly ejected by the sergeant-
at-arms
Senator Daniel Hcaly, who was seated
two years ago in place of Jesse F. Mc
Donald, now leutenant governor, was also
expelled by a vote of 18 to 15, the same
aa the Born case. Senator Horace T. De
long, republl ;an, protested against the ac
tion as unconstitutional. The democrats
allege that a two-thirds vote Is necessary
to expel members and may apply to the
supreme court for redress.
In a statement on the floor of the senate
Mr. Healy declared that an attempt had
been made to bribe him. He said that on
Saturday during the joint session, he was
called Into a private room and was told
that If he would vote for the confirmation
of Judge Goddard he need have no fear
of being unseated.
The senate membership is now twenty
republicans and thirteen democrats, with
wo acancles.
More Informations Piled.
Fifteen informations charging crimes
under the election laws have been filed by
District Attorney Btldger.
Mr. Stidger announced today that many
more Informations wsuld be filed as rapidly

MADISON', Wis., Jan. li.-The main fea
ture of Governor La Folletto's message,
which he read personally to the legislature
today, was a demand for an appointive
freight rata commission, the last of the
big reforms asked by the governor. The
message occupied three hours in reading,
nearly half being devoted to the railroads.
The governor also urged repeal of the
mortgage taxation law, the enactment of
an Income tax tind better protection against
railroad accidents. Relative to railways he
said:
Independently of the question of excessive
freight charges, the state should no longer
allow a railway corporation to control
without supervision, absolutely and ar
bitrarily, the commerce of Wisconsin, and
through control of that commerce deter
mine what villages shall become cities,
what cities become great markets and dic
tate aa to business supremacy in every In
dustry. Whatever temporary reductions
may have been made for businesa reasons.
a muuy oi railway tariffs ia force In Wla

First Wisconsin rates are still higher
than the rates charged under substantially
similar conditions on state traffic in the
usuranng states or Illinois and Iowa,

ocuuiiu-interstate rates in Wisconsin are
generally higher than rates in Illinois and
Iowa.
Third Rates charged on traffic In Wis
consin on tho whole yield a gross income
io ins rauroaus considerably above tne
amounts requirea lor all operating ex
penses, ror maintenance of property and
for a fair interest oi profit on the cost of
the roads.
Fourth The railway companies are guilty
of gross discriminations in favor of cer
tain slilppera and their discriminations as
between favored shippers are likewise
rankly unjust, resulting in the upbuilding
of monopoly, controlling production and
lunineis ttllKe.
The fact that the railroads have such
complete control over the thick imu

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12. Postmaster
General Wynne has issued an order trans
ferring the eutlre corps of postofflce in
spectors from the Jurisdiction of the fourth
assistant postmaster general and placing
them Immediately under the postmaster
general. The action Is taken on the ground
of subserving the best Interests bf the gov
ernment and also Is bused on the fact that
the Inspectors of the other executive de
partments of the government are directly
under the head of the department.
The order is effective next Monday. It
affects over 2O01 men scattered throughout
the country who ever since the creation of
the office of fourth assistant postmaster
general have been under the complete direc
tion and controj of that office.
The order Is one of the most important
Issued by the Postcfftce department for a
long period and may create significant de
velopments. Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General Bristow, who is strenuously op
posed to the transfer, has given definite ex
pression of his opposition and made efforts
to avert the transfer.
Fourth Avsistant Postmaster General
Bristow today discussed tho matter with
the president. At the conclusion of his In
terview he would say nothing a to the
order as regarding the course he would
pursue.

spectors formerly were directly under the
postmaster general, but when Estes G.
Rathbone was promoted from chief postof
flce inspector to fourth assistant postmaster
general some years ago, the Inspectors were
placed under that office. It is understood
to be the postmaster general's idea, that as
tho inspectors have to deal with the offices
of all four of the assistant postmasters gen
eral, their services can be most effective
when they are under the direct control ol
tho postmaster general alone.
Congressmen on TarMT Revision,
The republican members of the Massa
chusetts delegation in the house met today
and adopted resolutions favoring tariff re
vision. The following statement In opposition t
tariff revision is being signed by members
of tho house from the Rocky mountain
and Pacitlc coast states:
The Rocky mountain and Pacific coast
states are overwhelmingly opposed to the
agitation for tariff revision, and we, the
undersigned members ot the house of rep
resentatives, representing the states set
opposite our respective names, are not In
favor of calling an extra session of the
fifty-ninth congress for the purpose of
revising tho tariff, and we believe that the
agitation of this question at this time is
neither necessary nor desirable.
