(From a Staff Correspondent.)'
St. PAUL, Minn.. June 6. (Special Tele
gram.) An all-day excursion to Minne
haha Falls, Fort Snelilng snd Minneapolis
was a welcome break In the eighth bien
nial convention of the General Federation
of Women's Clubs and aside from the
political gossip abroad, clubs and club In
terests were left behind for the day.
An Invitation extended by some of the
Omaha women. In the name of the Social
Service club, has secured the promise of
a visit to Omsha next fall from both
Owen Lcvejoy and Mrs. Florence Kell of
the Consumers' league. There Is a strong
possibility, too, that Felix Adler of the
National Child .Labor committee will visit
Omaha during the wintef also.'
The fate of the Bulletin, published at
Boston by Mrs. May Alden Ward, second
vice' president of' the' General 'Federation,
and Miss Helen WlnSloW, as the official
organ of the board of directors of the Gen
eral Federation, is receiving a great deal
f attention and will be settled this week.
There Is strong opposition among pub
lishers of other club Journals against the
Oeneral Federation recognising any one
publication as 'its official' organ and they
are demanding that all club journals have
equal recognition. At present an advance
sheet of all communications 'from the
board of directors' used by the Bulletin Is
Issued to the daily press and such other
publications as have requested It.' This
plan is generally recognised as valuable
anil it Is being urged that this be con
tinued and that ho one magasihe be rec
ognised as the organ of the board.
Mrs. May, Alden Ward and Miss Louisa
B. Poppenhelm of the press committee are
favorable to continuing the Bulletin, but
Mrs. John D. Sherman, the third member
of the committee, Is strongly, opposed. Mrs.
Mary I. Wood of the bureau of informa
tion Is also publisher of a club journal,
and she. It Is said, Is strongly opposing
the continuation of the Bulletin. Consid
ering her position In the federation, her
Influence will carry considerable weight. .
New Tork has joined In the contest for
the presidency succeeding Mrs. Decker,
Mrs. Csrpenter, ex-state president, being
its candidate. That Massachusetts may
have no advantage, New York will en
deavor to have the next biennial held at
Atlantic City Instead of Boston, and then
all will have an equal claim.

HAMILTON FOR DEATH OF ' M'VITTIE
Finds Evidence that .Corporation
Boodle Flarnres In Loral Cnns
palgn, hot Larks Deflnlte
. Proof for Ckaraies,
The county grand Jury at Its final report
yesterday afternoon returned . an Indict
ment against H. B. Waldron, president of
the Citizens State ' bank of Waterloo,
charging him with felnnously altering a
warranty deed by. changing the name of
the grantee. . Several other Indictments
were returned, among them one age Inst
Clarence . Plllsbury, whose name. It Is
charged, was wrongfully Inserted In the
deed.
The grand Jury also made a report cov
ering conditions at the jail and rases In
vestigated where no Indictments were re
turned. . Briefly summarised, the report
makes these conclusions as to local condi
tions: Charges of Jury bribery were Investi
gated, but sufficient evidence to warrant
an Indictment was not. found. '
The law forbidding the corporations cin
tributlng money to enmpaign funds un
doubtedly has been violated, but direct
evidence could not be secured.
City officials have been unduly Influenced
by franchlsed corporations, but evidence
was Insufficient to locate the guilty par
ties. The election laws are violated In other
precincts than those In which Indlct nnnts
were returned, but evidence to Justify
other presentments than those made wss
not found. - Many 'violations are the roault
of Ignorance of - the jaw. on the part of
the boards.
The county Jail Is Overcrowded Snd
should be enlarged and sufficient supplies
for the needs of the prisoners ira not fur
nished by Sheriff McDonald. It Is recom
mended that the county purchase the sup
plies direct.
"Merchandise'' slot machines In which
chance -Is aw element are in use In the
city and a judicial decision as to whether
or not these are' gambling devices within
the meaning of the law Is asked for. There
la also a conflict between the city ordi
nances and the state law la regard to the
use of slot machines.
The Jury filed Into court room No. 1 at
1:16 to. make the final report to Judge
Sutton. After making the proper endorse
ments on the . documents the judge
thanked the Jury, for. Its services.
Easier to A cense Than Prove.
'I realise it is easier to make charges of
corruption than It is to find proof," said
Judge Button. "I am satisfied, the grand
Jury has industriously tried to do Its full
duty. Tou are discharged from further
service and are at liberty."
Besides the Indictments against Mr. Wal

turned: tery ticket to C. A.- .Baker, a member of

'. Bonort In Fall.
The report pt the grand Jury in full is
as follows:
grand' Jury, respectfully report that we
nave ended our deliberations.
we have carefully Investigated the mat
ters referred to In your instructions as
well as all othar alleged violations of the
criminal law which have oeme before us,
and we have In each case where the evi
dence has appeared to us suftlciaat made
proper presentment without fear or favor.
htererring to tne charge pertaining to jury
bribery and other corrupt meana used to
influence Jurors In their verdicts, we ob
tained all the evidence at our command,
and also requested the. Douglas County
Bar association to assist us in procuring
evidence, but the testimony presented to us
was not sumcient to justify a presentment.
we went carefully into tne matter of
corporations contributing to the campaign
expenses of polltcal parties and a large
number of witnesses were examined, and
while we were convinced from the evi
dence obtained that the law has undoubt
edly been violated In this respect, we re
gret . exceedingly to report that we were
unable to procure sumcient direct evidence
to make a case.
We were also convinced from the evidence
obtained that some of the city officials
have been unduly Influenced by the fran
chlsed corporations, but this evidence was
also Insufficient to locate the guilty parties.
we investigated tie charges -or Illegal
voting In the late city election and In addi
tion to the Indictments presented wa found
that the law pertaining to the use of voting
machines was undoubtedly violated In other
voting places than the Secrtpd and Third
precincts of the Third ward, yet the evi
dence was not sufticient to Justify other
fresentments. We think some of tne vio
utions were through the. ignorance of the
law.
We therefore reanmmend'that In the fu
ture elections the f prorr' authorities be
more explicit In explaining to the Judge
Slid clerks of election the law governing
the use of the vqilng- machrne.
We visited the county Jail and made
Investigation in accordance with your in
structions snd w beg to report that we
found It very much overcrowded. This
Jail Is entirely too small' for the needs
of Douglas county. As soon as practicable,
steps should be taken toward building a
new Jail, or at W-aat enlarging the ol'l
one. We also discovered during our In
vestigation, that the present Jail is not In
the best of condition. The plumbing is
very old and worn out, and a large part
of It etiouM be replared by new plumbing.
A hot water plant Is also bsdly needel.
A new steel key box should be supplied.
The Inside of the jail should be thor
oughly renovated and painted. We will
say, however, that the county commis
sioners Informed the grand jury that
these matters will be attended to without
delayl . . i ., i
Our ' Investigation further brought to
light that there la some misunderstanding
existing bet mien the county commission
ers snd the sheriff in the matter of feed
ing the prisoners and the purchasing of
supplies. rThe county commissioners re
cently passed a resolution allowing ' tho
sheriff 66 cents a day for feeding each
rrisoner, and the sheriff was advised that
his 16 cents rer prisoner Is to Include
the purchasing of all supplies needed,
suuh as bedding, clothing, disinfectants,
soap, etc., etc. These supplies sre not
used In sufficient quantities for the needs
of the jail. The sheriff claimed that the
10 Uy trial of
P0STUM
ta plr of coffee means
. big things to anyone.
. .:. , Therc'f a ReiMq, .
66 cents allowed Is not enough to feed thi
prisoners and purchase the supplies re
quired. We therefore recommend that the jail
rules be made plain where there is any
misunderstanding as to their meaning
It Is the belief of the grand jury that
better results will he obtained by -arating
the Items of supplies from tht
feeding of the prisoners and allow ua. h
separately.
We therefore recommend that the
sheriff be paid whatever may be right for
feeding the prisoners and that the neces
sary supplies be purchased and paid for
at their actual coat.
In connection with the gaming, we were
requested to investigate the slot nischlne
In general use in Omaha. We found th.it
under the authority of the Board of Flri
and Police, these machines have been
removed from saloons, but under an x
lsting ordinance passed by the city coun
cil a year or more ago, they are per
mitted to operate aa merchandise ma
chines, although the element of chance
still remains In their operation. It would
appear from this that the city ord i'-
and the state law on gaming and gambling
devices are in conflict. It is meretore
recommended by this body that the county
attorney be Instructed to take such action
as will determine by Judicial decision
whether a slot machine that does not
pay merchandise equivalent In value to
evsry piece of money thst la place J within
It Is a "merchnnse machine or a gam
bling device. The Insidious effects of these
machines cannot be doubted. They offer
easy and frequent opportunities to the
young for establishing a dangernu habit.

TANKTON. 8. D June 5. (Special.)
Monday morning a keen boundary dispute
between some church trustees on the one
side and a citizen and his wife on the
other resulted In the bloodiest fight Tank
ton has seen in many a long day. Acting
en the Instruction of the congregation of
the German Lutheran church the trustees,
Peter List and Michael Sonnenberg, com
menced to tear down a fence erected sev
enteen years ago by Herman Bergman.
This action at once brought on hosltiUtles
in which Mrs. Bergman went tor the' In
vaders with a club. 'Sonnenberg 'had a
saw. Which he was 'ualng on ' the fence.
This made a good weapon and Mrs. Berg
man was cut over, the head and arms In
a way to apatter blood In all directions.
Her husband came home In the thick of
the battle and before It was over the state's
attorney was In the mlxup. Intense bad
feeling has resulted and the end Is not
yet. In the meantime four bandaged citi
zens are nursing their wounda and at the
aame time are keeping their eyes on the
fence.
