Two luea war savers ly ANAMOSA A REFORMATIO Home Pastes the Stna'e Indeterminate Sentence law with Tew Amendments, FORT MADISON MZN MAKE A STRONG FIGHT Conference Committees of the Two Hoaaea Agree on the Primary Kill and Final Action tm Ex peeled In n Few Days. fFrom a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, March 27'-rSpeclal.) The house todny passed the senate Indetermi nate sentence and reformatory bill with some amendments uhlch were a victory for the people at Amtmosa. There was but one vote against the bill and that was by Reltt of Iee county In which la located the penitentiary at Fort Madison. Besides pro viding for an Indeterminate sentence the bill provides that the penitentiary at Ana mosn shall be a reformatory for all crimi nals from the ages of 16 to 30, and provides for a board of parole and takes from the legislature the power of pardoning life criminals for first degree murder. AS the bill came before the house It pro vided for certain exceptions, providing that persons guilty of certain crimes, among them breaking and entering In ' the night, should all go to the penitentiary at Fort Madison. On the motion of Taul of Ana mosa this was amended so ns to give the court discretion In the matter. Another provision of the bill was that only If the penitentiary at Fort Madison became overcrowded could the board of control transfer the better criminals to Ana mow. The claim was made that the peni tentiary at Fort Madison would hold 200 or 300 more than half of the criminals of the state and that with that provision in the bill the board of control could never, prac tically, transfer the better ciimlnnls to Anamosa, so the overcrowded provision was cut out. It Is believed the amendments will be concurred In by the senate. The bill Is the work of Senator Saunders of Council Bluffs and Representative i Holmes of Kossuth county. The bill was Introduced in both houses and passed the senate first, the house today passing the senate bill. The house this afternoon passed the bill providing for reconslgnment of freight without extra charge, the warehouse re ceipt bill and the bill for licensing optom etry. Miller of Bremer for Revision.

The first matter which caused attention was an effort to pass a bill which gives the Sta.te Board of Medical examiners authority to revoke a doctor's certificate on almost any kind of complaint. Attention was called to the fsct that the bill In its present form might cause a great deal of in justice and it was laid over tor two days. The senate refused to recoil from the governor a bill by Frudden relating to Insurance taxes. The house had passed it and then asked for its recall, but the senate refused. Bills passed by the senate: Permitting cities to appropriate for the Iowa League of Municipalities.

REFORMS FOR R0UMANIA Klnsj Meets Demands of Insurgents with Promise of letter Land Laws. BUCHAREST. March X. Measures pro posed by the government to meet the de mands of the revolted peasantry snd end the civil war which Is devastating Molda via and Wallachla were announced In to day's Issue of the Olllclnl Gazette In the shape of a proclamation Issued In the name of King Charles. The royal proclamation appeals f r the patriotic co-operation of the people to secure the re-oBtabllshment of tranquillity and anm uiu es that the sov ereign has agreed to the Immediate sup pression of some of the heavy taxes, while hereafter the farm lands will be cultivated by the state or leased direct to the peas ants. None of the larger syndicates hith erto engaged In farming vast tracts of land will be allowed to hold more than 8,000 acres. The document also gives notice of the In troduction of laws to ameliorate the condi tion of the peasantry facilitating the rais ing of money to pay rents, reforming the taxation of small holdings and revising the terms of the agricultural agreements which at present practically enslave the peasan try. Disorder to lie Snppresaed. "These reforms," the proclamation cor eludes, "being the desire cf the sovereign and the government, all P.omanlans are urged to give all possible assistance to the government which, while scrupulously! ap plying the luws and avoiding the injustice, will at the same time, vigorously suppress all disorders and severely punish all who seek to profit by robbery." The minster of the Interior announced to day that the condition In Moldavia had im proved, but there Is not much evidence In support of the stntement In the reports of disorders coming in from numerous points. From the districts of Vlashlca, Dtttnliovltz, Tecucl, Buzen, DolJ, Olt and Teleorman come the now familiar stories of incen diarism, pillage and excesses of all kinds. The censorship la strict, so details of the occurrences are lacking. The workmen In the petroleum districts are also In a state of excitement, but the authorities believe that the measures takn will prevent any disorder among them. Troops have been concentrated here to pro tect the cnpltol and reinforcements are being distributed in the disturbed sections of the country as speedily as possible. The new cabinet ministers propose to make a tour of the country and personally superintend measures taken to end the ag itation. Fighting nt Other Plaers. Forty peasants were killed March 25 in a hard fight with troops In the Mozazl dis trict. The Insurgents In that section cut to pieces and burned some of their victims. A stubborn encounter occurred yesterday at a point on the Gulrgevo road, about sixty miles from Bucharest, where 4,000 In surgents met a strong detachment of troops. The troops attacked with cavalry as well as Infantry, but the military com mander ultimately was obliged to use artil lery before he was able to force the peas ants to retreat. The Chamber of Deputies today unani mously passed bills providing for the aboli tion of several tastes and adopted other measures helpful td the rural population of Rournanla. The premier, M. Sturdza, announced that according to the latest reports the agrarian disorders were subsiding. Cruelty of Peasants. LONDON, March 27. A special dispatch from Sofia, Bulgaria, says that according to some of the Roumnnla refugees who have arrived on the Bulgarian side of the Danuoe the Insurgents have been guilty of the same ruthless cruelties which usually mark the feuds In the Balkans. Many of the landlord class have been burned to death after their bodies and limbs had been enrolled In the thick twists of bay and straw. The children, the refugees report, have been hacked to death by the revolted peasantry. MAIL CONTRACT RATIFIED Honse of Commons Agrees to Large Sum to Canadian Railroad. Pay LONDON, March 27. The House of Com mons by a large majority today ratified the contract with the Canadian Pacific company for' the conveyance of mails be tween Liverpool and Hong Kong. Harold Cox, liberal, and other members severely criticised the contract as a great waste of public money, each voyage covering 817,306. They declared that the result of the contract would be simply to provide the American rivals of British merchants with easier access to. the far eastern mar kets. It was also suggested In the course of the debate that there were some under lying strategical reasons Justifying the payment of a heavy subsidy to the Cana dian Pacific. ' Mr. Runciman, parliamentary secretary of the treasury, and Premier Campbell Bannerman, while admitting that It was not profitable, defended the contract as being a temporary arrangement pending the discussion of the matter by the colonial conference, after which a new contract would be made.
