State Senator Saunders Tells What
They Will Accomplish.
SCOPE OF PRESENT ACTS WIDER
Moo si Bill Mill Be Itearalatory ITpoa
All Saloon Men Ifijanctloas
for lloases of III
Rrpste,
In speaking of the Moon hill, which
limits the number of saloons in cities and
towns to one for eac?i l.Ono Inhabitants,
State Senator S.iunlers. who addressed the
meeting of the Methodist Brotherhood at
the Broadwsy churjii last evening on "The
Work of the Ijist legislature," said:
"One feature of this bill which will make
It effective as a law enforcement meas
ure. Is that providing that any saloon
keeper who vlolatea the conditions of the
mulct law, who Is convicted of such vio
lation, who may be enjoined or who vio
lates an Injunction, shall not be granted
a permit for a period tf five years. This
will tend to make the saloon men walk
the chalk mark, and makes the measure, In
my Judgment, one of tha strongest for
law and obedience of all the laws passed
during the session.
"This legislature," said the speaker, "will
be memorable In Iowa history for the
amount of remedial legislation enacted by
It. In this class are the bills defining the
duties of county attorneys and requiring
sheriffs to ferret out crime, and providing
for the expenses of such work. Another
bill, only bare mention of which was mad
by the newspapers, however, will. In my
Judgment prove a most effective measure.
This Is the law that provides that houses
of 111 repute may be enjoined. Just as sa
loons are now enjoined, for failure to ob
serve the law. The law places within the
hands of persons aggrieved by the pres
ence of such places, a remedy which can
be easily and effectively applied."
Jl'DGE TO DECIDE MULCT CASKS
Aanoaineriarat Made Salaoa Salts
Will Be Terminated.
Judge Wheeler, of the district court, an
nounced yesterday that he would hand
down this morning his decisions In the
twenty-two saloon Injunction cases brought
by the Anti-Saloon league In the name
of Joseph Reader of Oakland as plaintiff,
which had been taken under advisement by
him. In practically all of these cases the
Injunctions are sought on alleged technical
violations of the mulct law.- In some cases,
It is alleged that the defendant saloon
keeper violated the law by failing to pay
the mulct tax promptly on the first day
of January. In other cases, It is . alleged,
the saloonman was in violation of the law
when he filed a renewal merely of his
bond, and not a new one at the beginning
of fhe year.
Judge Wheeler yesterday Issued an order
directing Sheriff McCaffery to bring Mar
lon Kcdgepcth from the Fort Madlsoa
penitentiary to the county Jail In this city,
to be detained subject to the further
order of the court. County Attorney Hess,
who a few days ago. stated he would put
Hedgepeth on trial again, stated yesterday
that alnce reading the decision of the
supreme court he could not say Just what
disposition would be made of the ease.
"I was firmly convinced of Hedgepeth'a
guilt," said Mr. Hees, "and am still of
the same opinion. The case Is now back
for re-trial. Just how we shall proceed,
I cannot "say, now."
The damage ault of A. M. Lundgard
against the Omaha ft Council Bluffs Street
Railway company went to the Jury about
i o'clock last evening. A verdict for the
plaintiff In the sum of $376 was returned
t 10 o'clock. Lundgard sued for $1,000
damages for being ejected with a dog
from a car -and for $26 damages for the
death of the dog, which was run over
and killed by a car coming In the opposite
direction. The court yesterday sustained
a motion of the dofenae to eliminate the
claim for the death of the canine.

Six transfers, aggregating

The question of stricter regulation of the
pool halls was discussed at the meeting
yesterday morning of the Ministerial as
sociation. It was the opinion of the min
isters present that these places should be
required to close at a reasonable hour at
night and on Sundays and that minors
should not be allowed to play In them,
but should be prohibited from entering
them.
Rev. Marcus P. McClure, pastor of the
First Presbyterian church and Harry Cur
tic, general secretary of the Toung Men's
Christian association were appointed a
committee to confer with the city solicitor,
city council and others with a view to
procure the passage of an early date of
an ordinance providing for the stricter
regulation of these places.
The passage of such an ordinance wu
aour riaina-s. no belching of undigested
food mixed with acid, no stomach gas or
heartburn, fullneaa or heavy feeling in
the stomach, Nausea, Debilitating Head
aches, Disziness or Intestinal griping.

IOWA CITT. ,1a., April l.-t8peclal.l-ln
an Interview here after his address of lsst
Saturday before the Southeastern Iowa
teachers. Prof. L. H. Bailey of Cornell uni
versity, stated that resulting from the work
of the Country Life commission, of which
he was a member, a great movement for
progress is soon to be started In behalf of
the rural life of this country. Prof. Bailey
declined to state Just what the nature of
the movement was to be. but said that It was
not contemplated to ask congress to assist
In It, but It will rather be carried on by
the voluntary efforts of Interested parties.
Prof. Bailey took a broad stand in his ad
dress, which was upon the subject of "The
Country Life of Tomorrow." Reform our
rural governments, give more money to our
schoo's, shorten the hours of labor on the
farm, and make farm life such that It
shall be sufficient in Itself and not compel
country people to "retire'" to town, were
some of the things which Prof. Bailey ad
vocates as most essential.

CARROLL IS ACTING SLOWLY
Governor of Iowa Holds Hundred
Bills Without Signing.
HEARING ASKED ON MOON BILL
Financial Representative 1 nder
rw Board of Kdneatlon l.arr
Moat All Iteslde at lira
Moines.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, la., April IX (Speclsl.)
Nearly 100 bills passed by the legislature
are yet unsigned by Governor Carroll not
that he is contemplating on whether or not
to sign them he Is meiciy going over the
laws carefully before affixing his slgna
ture.
As a matter of fact there have been but
three requests for hearings before him on
bills before he affixes his signature. These
are:
The Monn saloon limitation bill.
The railroad penalty for violation of com
mission orders.
Amendment to law on appeal In criminal
cases.
The liquor Interests are. of course, back
of the hearing on the first mentioned,
which provides that In wet counties .there
shall not be more than one saloon for each
1,000 Inhabitants. . William Blrdssll of Wi
terloo will speak on this proposition, but
much doubt Is expressed by those who
have watched the legislation as to any
possibility of the governor refusing to sign
the measure. The railroads are objecting
to the law Just passed, which fixes a pen
alty of $50 per day to them for disobeying
orders issued by the State Railroad com
missioners. The law was passed because
the commission pointed out how futile
were Its orders If they could not be en
forced by penalty.
The objection to the amendment to the
law of practice with reference to criminal
cases is made by lawyers from Fort Dodge.
This new law cut down the time within
which an appeal In a criminal case csn be
taken from one year to six months.
Financial Managers at Capital.
Quite contrary to the general Impression
that has gone out the three financial rep
resentatives under the new Board of Edu
cation will not live, one at each Institution,
but will all be required to live in Des
Moines and from their offices at the state
house all three will look after the financial
department of the three colleges. These
three men' are to be selected by the new
educational board of nine when it meets
for organization here April 30. Among
those who have been mentioned as appli
cants for the three positions are J. S.
McGavern of Missouri Valley, W. C. Mc
Chesney of Iowa City. W. J. Dixon of Sac
City, Oleo O. Roe of Des Moines, Alfred
Grundy of Cedar Falls and ex-Senator
Thomas Lambert of Sabula.
Curator High and Dry.
Prof. Schambaugh of the State uni
versity at Iowa City, has handed Governor
B. F. Carroll his resignation as curator
of the State Historical department. Mr.
Schambaugh was appointed to succeed the
late Charles Aldrich, shortly before the
convening of the legislature. He Immedi
ately commenced lobbying the legislature
for a bill that would give him a salary of
$3,000 per year and some high-priced as
sistants. This, the legislature refused to
pass and instead placed the supervision of
all the departments under State Librarian
Johnson Brlgham, providing for a histori
cal curator at $1,600 per yearr
It is understood that Mr. Harlan, who is
at present acting curator. Is an applicant
for he position of curator.
Improvements at Fair Groands.
It is expected that the State Fair asso
ciation will soon begin making improve
ments at the state fair grounds. Including
the construction of the new steel grand'
stand for which the legislature appro
prlated $100,000. It Is hoped to have this
grandstand completed for the state fair
this year. According to plans It will be
a big Improvement at' the race course, giv

Effect of Panic
on Earnings
of Railroads
Bureau of Railway Kewi Sayi Gross
Shrinkage of Business Exceeds
Three Hundred Millions.
CHICAGO, April U.-An advance abstrsct
of statistics of American railways for the
year ending June 30. 1908, as complied by
the Bureau of Railway News and Statis
tics, was made public here today by Slaw
son Thompson, manager of tha bureau. The
report says:
"Instead of a decrease of only $1M,464.41
In gross earnings as a result of the 'tem
porary financial depression' of 1907-08. as
set forth in the preliminary income report
of the Interstate Commerce Commission
for the year ending June 30, MPS, the panic
of 1907, resulted In a loss or over t330.000.000i.
This statement Is based on a table giving
the earnings for the twelve months ending
November 30, 19M, when the full effect of
the business became evident, with the pro
ceding twelve. This avoids the error of
Including the fattest months In railway
history in the same jear with the lean
months that followed K.
"In the same way the loss In net earn
ings is shown to have been $129,540,460 In
stead of $111,061,008, as given in the commis
sion statement.
"The two-cent passenger fare legisla
tion caused a loss of $26,000,000 in gross
earnings, although more passengers were
carried. This is accounted for by a re
duction in average receipts per passenger
mile on 84 per cent of the mileage from
2.014 cents In 1907 to 1.932 in 1908.
"The heavy loss In net earnings Is partly
accounted for by the expenditure of ap
proximately $32,000,000 necessitated by ar
bitrary Innovations In accounting methods
and requirements in regard to the hours
and conditions of labor of certain classes
of employes."
