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.
Miller of Bremer In the house today intro
duced a resolution calling on the Iowa
delegation In congress to move for Im
mediate revision of the tariff so that there
might be no schedules thst would afford
a shelter to monopoly. The resolution went
over until tomorrow under the rules. Mr.
Miller Is chairman of the democratic state
central committee.
Van Houten of Taylor today Introduced
a resolu' on calculated to hasten the day
of adjournment. It provides that when a
bill Is called up- on the calendar unless
the member is there to taae care of the
bill It roust be stricken from the calendar.
Doll Day In Senate.
The senate had a routine day today. 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.
Giving the county suDerlntendnnt the rlirhf
to file informations on violations of the
compulsory school attendance law.
Appropriating M.ftw for the State His
torical society at Iowa City.
amending tne nsn and game laws.

(Requiring railroad companies to build
fences.
Regulating and licensing dance halls,
skating rinks, bill boards, etc.
The bill to give certain cities of the state
the right to adopt the Galveston or com
mission plan of city government waa
passed Anally by the senate and now goes
to the governor.
The senate Indefinitely postponed a house
bill which required that in case of the
circulation of a petition of consent for
saloons notice of this fact must be served
on the people by. publication.
Agrreed on Primary.
The conference committee on the primary
bill agreed upon a report today and It will
be passed upon by both houses In a few
days. The final report makes several
changes 4n the last amendments to the bill,
and especially does It exempt any city that

Railroad.
Pay
LONDON, March 27. The House of Com

the contract with the Canadian Pacific

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.

No Crave Trouble Is
Expected.
LONDON. March 27. Two failures were
announced on the Stock exchange today,
but neither of them was of any Importance
from the market point of view. The tone
In all departments was decidedly cheerful.
Americans fully responded to yesterday's
sharp advance In New York and therefore
the settlement Is being faced with com
parative cheerfulness in the belief that the
corner has been turned and that although
small failures may be expected no serious
trouble need be anticipated. The action of
Secretary of the Treasury Cortelyou In re
lieving the money market at New York
by depositing in the banks there customs
receipts to the extent of 816,000.000 has
proved of International value. Business Is
still restricted, as attention Is mostly taken
up with the conclusion of the settlement.
Americans opened a good deal above parity
and advanced from the start. There was a
slight reaction at the start, but it waa only
fractional. Consols were firm at 86, with
an Improving tendency.
