faka horaa race In thla city laat October.
Tha dlatrk t grand Jury which adjourned

aaveral others on a charge of conaplranr
In connection with the alleged buncoing of

It la understood that Poatofflce Inspector

against tha gang of alleged bunco rrien for
seversl months. While It haa not yet been
disclosed here what charge the federal au
thorltlea have agalnat Maybray and hla al
leged associates, It Is presumed that the
prisoners are accused of using the malls
for Improper purpoaea In furthering their
schemes to defraud Banker Bellew and
other wealthy auckera out of their money
It waa atated by a government, official
yeaterday that a few months ago Swensen
had about completed arrangementa to have
Maybray arrested, but that Maybray waa

In leaving town before the federal offlcera
could get hold of him. It la aald that May

ell Bluffa alnce the day ha learned tha gov
ernment officials were on hla track.
Maybray waa credited here with being the
leader of the gang of bunco artists who are
aald to have made Council Bluffa their
headquarters for several months of last
year. He la aald to be the man who rented
an office In the Mcrrlam block and waa
credited with being the owner of the big
red automobile which la alleged to have

ations. "Jim" Maybray, aa he waa known
to a number of local sports, la aald here to
have claimed South Omaha aa hla real

TIME FOE . VISITING COMMITTEES
Senate Reconaldera . Vote on Normal
Bill and Ameada Measure to f
Make Title State Teach-
era College.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE3 MOINES, Feb. !5.(Speclal.)-Th.
legislature agreed this morning . to the
March 1 recess, which is to commence upon
adjournment tomorrow and last until the
next Wednesday, Thia recess will be for
the purpose of permitting members to go
home and attend to the usual work which
Is done the first of March. It will also en
able the visiting committee to finish the
visiting of Institutions. The visiting com
mittee asked for aa extension of time and
it was granted-, ' .'
The house spent most of the forenoon to
day In considering the bill to make a new
definition of a legal fence. It requlree a
fence to be of woven wire. The bill, after
much discussion, was amended ao that the
only place where such a fence could be re
quired Is on the division line between farms.
and in this form It was passed.
Change Nasi of School.
The senate reconsidered ita action of de
feat for the bill to change the name of the
State Normal achool. The bill waa defeated
when it waa proposed to give the institution
the name of "State Teachers' college." To
day, after reconsidering the vote, the bill
waa amended and then passed to give the
institution the nama of "Iowa State Normal
college."
The senate, debated at length a bill to
recognised and license the practice of op
tometry, snd by decisive vote refused to
send the bill to the health committer, which
la dominated by the doctors, afty which It
waa made a special order for the following
day.
Car Problem Salved.
'The aenate passed unanimously the Allen
bill In regard to furnishing cars. The
present Iowa law requlree rallroada to fur
nlsh cara when they are needed by ship
pers when within their power to do so
and upon reasonable time. The Allen bill
strikes out all these previsions and leaves
it so that the duty of furnishing cars is
well def-ned. In a sense, tlie bill is a sub
stitute for all demurrage bills.
The senate also received a report from
the railroads committee, favorable to the
bill to forbid "promiscuous drinking on
trains and to give conductors authority to
forbid persons from going on trains whlls
they are Intoxicated.

HUMBOLDT, Ia., Feb. 2t. (Special.)
Every retail druggist in Humboldt county
who haa aold Intoxicating liquors, waa to
day enjoined from doing so any longer by
an Injunction issued by Judge A. D. Ballle,
of the district court. Three of the druggists,
knowing that the Injunction woupld prob
ably be Issued, surrendered their permits
before the official edict waa given out.
The Injunction is Issued on the broad
claim that every drug store cwner in the
county had been selling liquor Illegally.
Recently all of the "bootleggers" were
driven out of business In the county, and
the Intention to make the county abso
lutely "dry" prompted the action against
the drug men.

length in support of their contention that

Balkan Crisis
Is Regarded as
Acute in Russia
Diplomats in Czar's Service Believe
War Between Austria and
Servia Sore to Come.
ST. PETERSBURG. Feb. 25. The pessim
ism with regard to the Balkan crisis Is
steadily deepening In diplomatic circles,
where It ia believed that Austrian action
against Servia may be expected within a
fortnight unless a solution of the present
grave problem is soon arranged. Foreign
office officials atate that Ruasla Is not dis
posed to consider an Invasion of Servia
alone aa a caaua belli, but there la fear
that the government's hand may be forced
under auch circumstances by popular feel
ing. The beginning of hostilities would
throw thouaanda of Russian volunteers Into
the Servian ranks.
The Duma leadera. who visited the For
eign office today, expressed themselves as
convinced that war la inevitable. Informa
tion received from Kiev today Indicates
that no military measures have yet been
undertaken on the southwestern frontier,
but all applications of officers for leave ol
abaence have been refused and the Kiev
department Is ready for Inatant mobiliza
tion. Brrlla Discredits Alarmist Views.
BERLIN. Feb. 26.-There Is no leason to
believe that an outbreak of war between
Auatria and Servia Is imminent, according
to the view held In most authoritative semi
official circles. The alarmist reports are
regarded aa being much exaggerated. It Is
admitted, however, that the situation Is
not clear and will remain cloudy until
those powers which, like France, are striv
ing to maintain peace, make their voices
heard at St. Petersburg and Induce Russia
to notify Belgrade that In the event of
war Servia cannot rely unnn either STflTcV
or Indirect Russian aupport.
