NEW HAVEN. Conn.. Dec 10. Repre
sentative George L. Lllley, governor-elect
of Connecticut, has been subpoenaed to
answer the complaint that In tho recent
ante-election campaign he, himself, or
through a financial agent, violated the
corrupt practices law enacted four years
ag-j. The complai:.t alleges unlawful acta
of Mr. Lllley or his agent. -Colonel L.'M.
Mullen, in distributing money through
saloon keepers In Waterbury for the pur
pose of treating electora on election day
and also of placing certain sums with in
y iduals In social clubs for "treating"
purposes. The complaint further alleges
that the sworn statement of Mr. Lllley's
expenses do- not set forth these expendi
tures. Mr. Lllley's sworn statement showed that
Ve spent over $23,000 by financial agent to
fr elected governor. His democratic oppo
nent. Judge At Heaton Robertson, swore
to having spent $33,000 In hia campaign,
while the antl-Lllley republicans spent
f 15.(00.

lawyers In the state declined to serve,
and that finally the complainant, George
I Fo of this clty.who drafted the corrupt
practice act, secured counsel from New

torney represents Mr. Fox in the pro
ceedings, however, as Indicated by the
service papers.

BROKERS LOOK TO AFRICA
Presldeat Says Wall street Hopes
Every Lloa Will Do
Its Doty.
ATLANTA. Ga.. Dec. 10. In a Washing
ton special, printed this morning in the
Constitution, President Roosevelt Is quoted
as asserting that Wall street hates him.
"When I go to Africa," said the president
In talking to a party of Georgians who
called upon him yesterday, "Wall street
expects every lion to do his duty. Wall
street hates me with fervid sincerity, not
because of any general denunciation of
railroads and corporations, but because I
have done things."
The Dresldent la quoted as saying that
he does not plead for a centralised govern
ment, but for a recognition of the power
already vested In the national government,
adding: "If congress will give m. and
when I say me, I mean the president, the
national administration the power t se
cure a thorough supervision of the finan
cial affairs of railroads, to regulate the
Issuance of stock, to prevent stock water
ing and to Insure publicity of all their af
fairs, with due regard to legitimate trade
secrets. It would settle the whole corpora
tion question."
Urging the necessity of permitting rea
sonable combinations of capital, the presi
dent is quoted further as saying:
"If you should dam up the Mississippi
river you would cause a flood and accom
plish nothing thereby, but you can guide
and restrain this immense water force by
means of levees."
NO BEARS ON THE FUTURE
J. Plerpoat Mararaa "ays Bears la

CHICAGO, Dec 10. "Any man who 1a a
bear on the future of this country will go
broke." '
J. Plerpont Morgan In a circle of friends
and business associates at the Chicago
club yesterday pointed to thla sentiment
given to him years ago by his father, as
the basta of his business career.
The elder Morgan's advice waa. It Is said.
given when father and son were on their
way to America.
"He told me," Mr. Morgan Is quoted as
saying "to follow my own bent In business,
but whatever that business, to work hard.
One thing he said I shall always remember
not to discount the future of America. He
said: 'Remember my son, that any man
who la a bear on the future of thla coon try
will go broke. There may be times when
things are dark and cloudy In America.
In such times and at alt times remember
that the great growth of that vast country
will take care of all.' "

Jersey Maa Waats a Job.
George M. Deubel of JT0 8amm!t avenue.
Jersey City, N. J., has written to the secre
tary of state for a Job on a ranch in Ne
braska. The writer says he is a young man
now employed by a railroad company which
refuses to advance him, although admitting
he Is worth more money than he is getting.
He Informed the secretary of state that if
he made good on a ranch with a good em
ployer in the course of a year he would
be in a position to buy a part Interest.
Soaao Poor Laaere.
'The republican pvty has developed
some mighty poor losers since the last
election." remarked an officeholder, who
is giving up his Job without any kick.
"For about seven years John L, Pierce
has been the head of the Insurance depart
ment under State Auditors Weston and
Searle. His friends tried to get bis re
appointment under Auditor-elect Barton
and failed.
"I notice now that Pierce is advocating
taking tha insurance department from
under the control of the state auditor and
placing it in the hands of a board. Thla
of course, means putting It where Governor-elect
8hallenberger will have an oppor
tunity to appoint either Pierce or a demo
crat to be deputy.
"Whether the Insurance department
should be under the state auditor or under
a democratic governor, makes no differ
ence to me. but It looks like Mr. Pierce
would be willing to step down and out
without trylmr to keep any other republi
can from holding the office. If Mr. Barton
had 'appointed Pierce to the office I
wonder would there have been any recom
mendation from that source that the office
be segregated. "
Ilartla-ajB Has aa Axe.
The broadax Is raised and about Janu
ary 7 it will descend in an unexpected
quarter, ao the cards read. It will cleave
i uie Binciai neaa oi Major Devlsson, at
preaent adviser to the governor In af
! fairs military, loaned to the state by the
! general government.
It is reported on good authority that
Adjutant General-to-be Hartlgan will
have none of the major. In his office.
This. It Is said, is because the major has
not warmed up to the National guard
members sufficiently to make a hit with
them.
Of course if Mr. 8hallenberger. commander-in-chief
of the land forces of the
state. Issues an edict against the wishes
of the new adjutant general, that edict
will stand, but It is understood Mr. Hart
lgan will have a free hand la the mat
ter. That Major Davlsson has heard no
intimation of what la about to happen to
blm waa demonstrated yesterday when he
greeted Governor-elect Shallenberger. The
two shook hands.
"I trust our relation during tha next
two years," said the major, "will be as
pleasant as have my relations here during
the last two years."
Mr. Shallenberger hoped so.

red tickets were put Into service. Beatrice
parties would visit DeWitt and Wllber, and
In the evening board the train so badly In
toxicated they were unable to tell their
destination. This would cause the conductor
no end of trouble. The little red ticket Is
sold to passengers with a view of doing
away with a good deal of this trouble
caused by the men who try to drink up
most of the liquor in DeWitt and Wllber.

HASTINGS. Neb.. Dec. 10. (Special Tele
gram.) The fourteenth annual convention
of the State Association of County Commis
sioners and Supervisors came to a close
here today by the re-election of officers
and the selection of Fremont as the place
for holding the next convention. Because
of the general satisfaction over their ad
ministration for the last year there was no
opposition to the re-election of President
Weldon of Wood River, Secretary Hill of
Hastings and Treasurer Tralnor of South
Omaha. North Platte had a liberal follow
ing In the quest for the next annual gath
ering, but Fremont was m favor with the
majority because it waa deemed unwise to
have two consecutive conventions In the

H. 8. Mahan of thla city, who just returned
from the vicinity of Redfern Table, some
fifteen miles south of this city, brings In
the report that a mountain Hon. or some
other large animal, la killing calves and
colts and Intimidating the people of that
locality. The animal made Its appearance
In the locality about a week ago, since
which time It has killed several head of
stock, and has been seen at a distance by
a number of people. However, no one has
been fortunate enough to get close enough
to it to be sure of what it la
A few weeks ago a similar animal was
killing stock for the farmers Just north of
Lexington, and was seen by a number of
people In that locality. Hunting parties
were organised, and with guns and dogs an
attempt was made on two or three different
occasions to run the animal down, but
without success. It Is thought that this Is
the same animal which Is now Intimidating
the people In the vicinity, .of Redfern Table,
and has moved its .jalj;, to this, locality,
which Is some twenty-fve miles north of
Lexington. .
There Is talk of the sports of this city
organising a party and going out to hunt
the animal down.

"I'll venture to say," declared George
A. Shlves, during a recent discussion
at the Business Men's Club in Cincin

got died of starvation.
That Is quite an idea. Many people
who are firm believers In the doctrine
that Cleanliness is next to Godliness,
live up to their belief from their feet
to their foreheads. They pay little or
no attention o the hair. Undoubtedly,
neglect of that Important duty la re

out women' hair. Dr. Nott, a Southern
scientist, bad hi own peculiar Ideas
about the care of the hair. To him the
matter of keeping the head clean la of
a great Importance as washing the face.
Many a head of hair 1 simply a reposi
tory for germ and dust. In giving Dr.
Notts Hair Tonic to the country, the
Heaslg-Ellls Drug Co., of Memphis, Tenn.,

designed to promote the growth and

of disease aad enable one to keep all tbs
hair that I left. The a of Dr. Nott'
Hair Tonic I of aa much Importance to
the health of hair as that of good soap

RUEF JURY OUT LONG TIME
Several Member Are Believed to Bo
Staadlas Oat for Aeqalttal
of Ex-Boa.
SAN FRANCISCO, tec. 10. Nineteen
hours had elapaed since the Jury in the
case of Abraham Ruef began its delibera
tions up to 11 o'clock today, when there
had been only the mldinght demand for
testimony and instructions to Indicate whst
is transpiring behind the closed and
guarded doors of the Jury room.
The length f time that the Jury ha re
quired for consideration ha rendered Ruef
and his attorney extremely hopeful of a
disagreement, and even the defendant at
times engaged in frank discussion of the
probable attitude of the Jurymen.
It has been surmised from the manner In
which several Inquiries of Jurymen were
last night propounded, that two or three
rf their number favor acquittal, but there
Is no other foundation for this belief, al
though it Is shared dike by friends of ths
prosecution and defense.
