DEFICIENCY HI 1,1, l THE HOI kfcl
Day Spent In IHscaaslnar Means of
Prevention- Overlaps.
WASHINGTON, Jan. l.-Reform In the
matter of making deficiency appropriations
agitated the house today and the entire
time of the five and a quarter hours' ses
sion was devoted to its discussion, with the
exception of a short speech for free hides
by Mr. Perkins of New Tork.
The urgent deficiency bill was cojuider4
under the general debate order and Mr.
Llttauer of New York, in charge of the bill,
set the pace by pointing out the failure of
the legislation of last year' to curb heads of
departments In their demands for deficiency
supplies. He explained the more stringent
measure recommended In the bill and said
that several requests for money had been
refused by the committee.
The one specific Illustration of .the need
for reform which was cited was tlie appro
priation of $2,as for a portrult of former
Attorney General Krtox which Attorney
General Moody had puld out of the con
tingent fund of the Department of Justice
and for which the bill makes provision.
I Under the new limitations this use of the
contingent rund will not be permitted. Gen

SAYS' GARFIELD PROMISED, EXEMPTION
Commissioner of Corporations Hears
"latene4a and Makes otea, bat.'
Declines to Be (looted
. i on Subject.
CHICAGO. Jan." 19 Attorneys for the
packers arraigned the government sharply
today for the policy they declared It had.
through Commissioned of Corporations Gar
field, pursued In' the' investigation of the
charges r made against the packers. Attorney-John
8. Miller of this city, who
rnade the ppehjfig statement for the pack
ers,' declared that Commissioner Garfield
had declared In nhe presence of witnesses
thst If-he was allowed to obtain evidence
from' jtie hooks, of the packers he would
consider the .erldencw so gained to be the
ssme as f u had been developed before him
In a, formal hearing. He declared that he
would prove thia by Commissioner Garfield
himself if the commissioner ould take
the stand.
Mr. Miller contended that under a proper
construction of the Isw there could be no
doubt that the 'packers were entitled to
Immunity because of their action In turn
ing over to the commissioner all the In
formation which he aought.
Commissioner Garfield would make no
comment -on the remarks of Attorney Mil
ler, declaring that ha might be a witness
In, the case later on, and that It would not
be proper for him to discuss the case before
he was called to the stand.
Miller Cnnaea a Sensation,
Attorney John S. MUler, speaking for the
packers, ' continued his preliminary state
ment in the l.'ntted States court this morn
ing. He caused something of a sensation at
tna commencement of his remark by stating
that , he would prove by the admission of
Corporation Commissioner Garfield while on
the stand, that the puckers in this case are
entitled to Immunity from prosecution. He
declared further ' that last March Com
missioner Garfield declared that he would
consider the seeking. of the facts by his
agents,, in the onions of the packers, as If
they had been developed before htm per
sonally and had been presented In hi. pres
ence at a formal hearing.
Commissioner Garfield, who waa in the
court room when the statements were mado
by the attorney began writing rapidly on
a pad Of paper, taking notes of the state
ments made by Mr. Miller.
Mr. Miller said, lit opening hi. speech:
A meeting wa. held at the Chicago club
In this city, on April 13, 19U6, bctwten
Commissioner Garflvld. L. C. Kra'r.hoff
and Samuel Roberts. The question arose
as to the relations to exist between Com
missioner Garfield and the packers, if the
investigation was to be In the proper line
Of prlvacv. Mr. Garfield said that the
question of what the government n
or wbs not entitlvl to. might come up
and that If it arose he would settle it.
He said that he. desired to conduct an
Investigation but without violating any
rights of privacy.' Mr. KrauthofI sug
gested that he might advise the pirkirs
who were nis clients to ram o iw
the commissioner to publicly iiiwsuaie
their private business, but he was dispored
to ask the packer not to contest the mat
ter. The question then arose as to the
method of getting the Information end
how the worK oi ine mrnu i uit u.m
mlssloner would be connidered. Commis
sioner Garftld replied that the lniorina
tion would be the same as if the dofen
dams had testified before him patern
ally. The attorney than ' contended that I'rder

Attornev Mlllnr. concluded his address at
noon , end. was'", foltbwed by Attorney
George W.' Brown, also for the packers.
Garaeld Declines to Talk.
At the boon recess of the court Commis
sioner Garfield ' was asked If he wi uld
make a statement concerning the temarks
of Attorney MUler and replied:
"I would rathltr not talk of the matter.
I am a witness in this case and do not
care to 'discuss' It 'before I am called. I
do not care to say whether I cart explain
this matter or not."
Attorney Brown, in opening, referred to
the magnitude of the business done by the
packer, and their right to have in Chi
cago, which he called the "atock center
of the world," a Tight to protection.
District Attorney Morrison offered an ob
jection to this. "It 'aeems to me," he said,
"that they are' going clear out of this
case."
vTou may. go on," said Judge Hum
phrey. ;
Mr. Brown then entered upon a descrip
tion of the business of the packers and
of the stock yards.' He went at great
length Into the details of the Investigation
conducted by Commissioner Garfield.
Attorney Brown continued his state
ment until the adjournment of court. He
followed much the same lines of argument
as wa. pur.ued by Attorney Miller, de
claring that the promises he declared were
made by Comm'MM'unr Garfield were In
themselves under the law a protection fftr
the Indictments. 1
At the conclusion of the day an adjourn
ment was taken until Monday morning
when the attorneys for the packers
continue their statements.

CHICAGO, Jan. U.-Judge Bethea In the
I'nlted States district court today appointed
the Chlcsgo Title and Trust company as
receiver for the firm of George S. McRey
nolds ft Co. and fixed the bond of the com
pany at $.,. The appointment of the re
ceiver followed two applications for the ac
tion by the court. The first petition wss
presented In behalf of three creditors whose
claims aggregated something over $1.6on.
Before the court had taken action on this
application a second was presented by at
torneys who represented over a .core of
creditors. Attorney N. B. Judah, who ap
peared when the second spplicatlon was
made to the court, declared that he repre
sented the Illinois Trust and Savings bank,
Corn Exchange bank. Northern Trust com
pany bank. Bank of Montreal, all of this
city, and the Park National bank of New
York. To these Institutions, declared Mr.
Judah, McReynolds & Co. owned I4OO.0CO In
the aggregate. He made the statement In
open court that for the amount of these
Toans the hanks held warehouse receipts
that were worthless. After hearing the
statements of other attorneys the court
granted the petition for a receiver. In ajt
attempt to prove the allegations made by
Mr. Judah in relation to the value of the
receipts given by Mclteynolds & Co. as se
curity for the loans, Mr. McReynolds will
be examined tomorrow before a referee In

WILSON IMPROVES SERVICE
Some Snaaeatlona of Keep Commis
sion Have Already Reen
Pat In Fore.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-Secretary Wil
son tof the Department of Agriculture as
not 'disposed to make any statement le
gardlng the report of the Keep commis
sion when asked for his opinion of It
today. In reply to questions, .loaever,
the secretary suid that the fullest op
portunity had been given the commission
to investigate the methods of the crop
estimating board in preparing their esti
mates. As to the recommendations of the com
mission looking to an Improvement In the
work of statistical bureaus. Secretary
Wilson decided that many of the ch.tiig?s
suggested actually had been made in the
department and were now and had bten
for a long time In force. He declared that
the Increased sphere of usefulness ot the
state agents was no new idea as it hud
originated In his department, and he heeded
only the necessary additional appropriation
to put It Into effect. The proposition, how
ever, to do sway with the 85,000 agents a: id
correspondents, he said, was radical-and
one which needed careful consideration.
GANS KNOCKS OUT SULLIVAN
Colored Pnvlllst Puts lp Clever Fight
and Finishes Ilia Man lu
Fifteenth Round.
SAN FRANCISCO. Jim. 19. -Joe Gans, re
juvenated, put up the fight of his life 3nd
knocked out Mike "Twin" Sullivan in the
fifteenth round tonight. The Issue of the
fight was hardly In doubt from the first
lound. From start to finish Gans was th3
aggressor and kept right on top of his man.
Sullivan made several brave rallies, but he
could not hurt the colored man, and ftnal'.y
In the fifteenth round a series of lightning
right hand blows to the Jaw ended Bullt
vsn's aspirations and put Gans once more

of Infalr Practices.
INDIANAI'OMS. Jan. 19.-The conven
tion of the Unlied Mine Workers of Amer
ica today continued consideration of reso
lutions. One of the most Important sub
jects taken up was a resolution favoring
the acceptance of transfer cards from the
Western Federation of Miners In lieu of an
Initial fee. It waa claimed on behalf of 'he
resolution that the refusal of the I'nlted
Mine Workers of America to accept 'ie
cards of the Western Federation worked
great hurdshtp to western miners on ac
count of the frequency with which they
changed camps. One of those to support
the resolution wss Delegate Germer of
Iowa.
The propostion to accept the cards of tlie
Western Federation of Miners waa lost by
a decisive vote.

AWFUL PSORIASIS
35JP ;
Terrible Scaly Humor in Patches
All Over the Body Skin Cracked
and Bleeding Itching Unbear
ableCured by Cuticura In Thirty
Days at Cost of $4.75.
ANOTHER WONDERFUL
CURE BY CUTICURA
"I waa afflicted with peoriais (or
thirty-five years. It was in patches all
over my body.
1 uea vnrco cases
of Soap, six boxes
Cuticura Oint
ment, snd two
bottles of Cuti
cura Resolvent. I
bathed with the
Soap, applied the
' 'Vr 7V Ointment once a
yWx:Zi day, and took the
r UZ3iS Resolvent as di-
vv ' rected. In thirty
days I waa completely cured, and I
think permanently, as it was about five
years ago.
" The psoriasis first made it appear
ance in red spots, generally forming a
circle, leaving in the center aspot about
the size of a silver dollar of sound flesh.
In a short time the affected circle
would form a heavy dry scale of a whit
silvery appearance and would gradually
drop off. To remove the entire scales
by bathing or UFing oil to soften them
the flesh would be perfectly raw, and a
light discharge of bloody substance
would ooze out. That scaly crust would
form again in twenty-four hours. It
was worse on my arms and limbs, al
though it was in spots all over my
body, also on my scalp. If I let the
scales remain too long wit hout remov
ing by bath or otherwise, the sVin
would crack and bleed. I suffered
intense itching, worse at nights after
getting warm in bed, or blood warm
by exercise, when it would be almost
Unbearable.
"To sum it all up, I would not go
through such another ordeal of affliction
tor thirty-five years for the Bute of
Kansas, (signed) W. M. Chidcster,
Hutchinson, Kan., April 20, 1905."
