Ins to the semi-annual-statement of the

by January 1. During this period of time
. warrants have been registered to the
amount of 1748,031.
, . The total Of warranta on all funds out
standing December 1, 19, was $2,466.188.M.
The balance, outstanding -June 1, 1904, was
S2,4Z7.1Sl4s, a reduction of only $27,596.
. The small reduction In the total , of all
warranta outstanding la explained by tho
fact that warrants were 'issued last month
to the number of 1404.431 on the temporary
school fund, . but none of these had yet
been, preaented to the treasurer for pay
ment on June 1, the date of the state

Hoase Subcommittee Working- Away
a Inspection Bill an Espeets te
Have It Ready ta Report
la a Few Days.
(From a Staff Correspondent)
WASHINGTON, June 4 (Special Tele
gram.) Congressman Kenrtedy todsy
made an uphill flght to defeat the( bill
creating a new collection district at Port
Arthur, Tex., and making Sabine pass,
which Is now the present port of entry,
a sub-port.' For yeara there haa been
rivalry between Sabine pass and Port
Arthur. The Kountze Bros, of Omaha
and New York became Interested in mak
ing Sabine pass a great port of shipment
of grain and - other t-ommodltlea of the
northwest destined for European ports.
Port Arthur received vast encouragement
from Pittsburg capitalists, Millionaire
John W. Gates also uniting with the
Pittsburg interests to make Port Arthur
the great Texaa port of entry. These in
terests have been clashing for yeara; one
day Sabine pass would receive encour
agement from the government and, fig
uratively speaking, next day Port Arthur
would come on the crest of the wave. Both
towna have been growing enormously, but
lately Port Arthur has been distancing
Its rival, with the result that demands
were made to have Port Arthur made
the chief port of entry for that section
of the Texaa coast. ' Hearings were had
on the subject and finally John W. Gates
threw Into the breech thousands of dollars
worth of ship canal, giving the govern
ment absolute soverlgnty not only over
the canal but over the land adjacent
thereto, and thia decided the matter in
favor of Port Arthur.
Today this bill came up under suspen
sion of the rules and it waa stubbornly
fought by Mr. Payne of New York, floor
leader of the majority, and Mr. Kennedy
of Nebraska. But flght as hard aa they
would, when the vote waa taken It was
overwhelmingly in favor of the bill aa
reported from the ways and means com
mittee, making Port Arthur the chief port
of entry In the Sabine district.
Bill te Drain Indian Lands.
The house committee on Indian affairs
today reported favorably the Burkett bill,
which ha-i been In charge of Mr. Pollard
In the house, enabling an Indian alloted
lands In severalty within the boundaries
of drainage district No. L in Richardson
county Nebraska, to protect their land
from overflow and for tho segregation of
said Indiana from their tribal relations,
as may be expedient. The bill, which haa
the endorsement of the secretary of the
Interior, haa primarily for Ita object the
participation of certain members of the
Sac and Fox and Omaha Indiana In the
plan for straightening the Nemaaa river
in southeastern Nebraska.' The members
of the Nebraska delegation Interested hope
to secure the passage of the bill tomorrow
under suspension qf the rules, the house
having adjourned at 2:S0 today out of trib
ute to the memory of the late Senator
Gorman.
Worklaar on Inspeetlon Bill.
A subcommittee of the house committee
on agriculture was In session all morning
considering the terms of the so-called Bev
erldge amendment, which provides for
compulsory Inspection of every carcass of
meat Intended to be used In Interstate or
foj-elgn commerce. No member of the com
mittee opposes Inspection of all food, prod
ucts, but inasmuch as the Inspection is in
the Interest of the public health there la
a generaf feeling among the members that
the. cost should be paid by the govern
ment. This Is apparently the only re
maining point at Issue. It provides that
the government shall pay the cost of in
spection so long as available funds hold
out, but If the appropriations should at
any time become Insufficient the secretary
of agriculture may have the power to levy
fees upon the packers to cover the cost
of Inspection.
The full committee will take up the sub
ject on Wednesday, and It la expected
that on that day or the following a report
will be submitted to the house which will
form the basis of the position which the
house conferees will assume when the bill
goes to conference. That will probably be
upon the return of Senator Proctor, chair
man of the senate committee, about Fri
day, i

LIKELY TO BREAK OFFICIAL PRECEDENT
gontbern - Delegates Xot I'nlted on
Person They Will Pash Forward
for Preferment and Promo
tion Two Years Hence.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
ST. PAUL, Minn., June 1 (Special Tele
gram.) A decidedly complicated political
situation has arisen at the eighth biennial
of the Oeneral Federation of Women's
Clubs, of which next Thursdav'a election
Is to be but a temporary adju.i.-nent. The
real end la two years hence and centers
In the success of Mrs. Sarah Piatt Decker
as president, who Is too strong and popu
lar a woman to be defeated while she la
eligible to re-election. While there Is no
question but that Mrs. Decker will be
re-elected next Thursday, notwithstanding
the strong undercurrent of opposition
among some of the, big. Influential clubs
of the east that would be ominous to a
less popular candidate. It Is equally cer
tain that there will be changes among the
other officers who are eligible to serve
another term. The opposition of some of
the eastern and routhern delegations to
a western wom-.n In the high offices has
been too evident and the women of the
middle west will assert themselves by mak
ing some changes In the executive that
will place some of their representatives
where, they may demonstrate their ability.
The southern women are divided in their
choice between Mies Poppenhetm and Mrs.
Phillip N. Moore as successor to Mrs.
Decker, while Massachusetts Is equally de
termined that Mrs. May Alden Ward shall
have the first office. The chancea of Boa
ton to get the next biennial strengthens
Mrs. Ward's chances, owing to the prece
dent that gives one of the offices to the
hostess city, but the first office has never
been awarded In thia way and the fact
that It haa been declined by hostess cities
In the past makes the southern women
more determined.
Krbraskana Break Precedent.
The Nebraska delegation held a meeting
before breakfast Monday morning and en
doraed the re-election of Mra. Decker as
president. Mrs. Phillip N. Moore, first vice
president, and Mis. John D. Sherman, re
cording secretary. Nebraska will not en
dorse Mrs. May Alden Ward of Massa
chusetts for re-election aa second vice
president. Miss Louisa B. Poppenheim of
South Carolina, retiring corresponding sec
retary, fur another position on the board.
or Mrs. Percy Pennypacker of Texas, re
tiring treasurer, for auditor. This dlsre
gard of precedent Is unusual, but the Ne
braaka women feel that other things than
sentiment should deten.ilne the offices.
Minnesota cannot unite on the choice of
a representative to accept, any one of the
open offices that will be tendered In com
pliment to the hosteaa state, so Mrs. Lydla
Williams of Minneapolis will probably he
returned to the board of directors. Mrs.
Joslah Cowlea of Los Angeles la the choice
of the' western women for corresponding
secretary, treasurer or second vice presl
dent, preferably the first.
At a meeting of several of Ue southern
delegations Monday Mlaa Louisa B. Poppeo
helm waa endorsed to succeed ,Mra C. A.
Perkins of Tennessee on tha board aa
representing the south. This will retain
Miss Poppenheim In a position where her
chances for the presidency next, time will
be good and the southern women will do
all possible to seo- ber election. Mrs

Perkins of Tennessee Is one of the most
valued members of the present board and
the southern women will try to elect her
corresponding secretary.
Poshing Mrs. Bnsbnell.
There will be no attempt to return Mrs.
Belle M. Stoutenborough, formerly of Ne
braska, to the board and Nebraska wilt
oppose her re-election, asking for a repre
sentative In Mrs. H. M. Bushnell of Lin
coln. Mrs. Mary I. Wood, having charge of
the bureau of Information, will not be a
candidate for re-election to the board, and
this will help Nebraska's chance.
Opposition that haa arisen to the propo
sition of the committee from the council of
presidents, that 2,000 be paid out of the
General Federation treasury to the treaaury
of the California federation to be used
for the clubs that Buffered from the earth
quake, has caused a reconsideration of the
whole proposition and the proposed plan
will probably be withdrawn.
Interest of the women In the Industrial
and child labor and forestry work was
manifested by an unusually large attend
ance at those sessions Mondsy morning,
the delegations keeping their seats until 1:30.
Mrs. Rheta Childe Dorr, chairman of the
industrial committee, presented a strong
program. Mrs. Dorr Is a daughter of Dr.
and Mrs. Edward Chllcje of Omaha, and
formerly resided here.
