FUEL AGAIN GOES BEFORE MAIL B. P. Loos of Dea Moines Becomes Candidate for President af 'Aatt Trnat Leagae More of Rat Muddle. (From a Staff Correspondent)' : PES MOIKES, Jan. 14. (Special Tele gramsAll northern Iowa la again almost snowbound and the railroads are anxious over the coal situation. They had not yet succeeded ' In getting ooat to all ' places where It is needed and the laat snowstorm has compelled the abandonment of some trains. The Milwaukee notified the nail rosd commission today of the abandonment of some .of the local passenger trains 'in order that the ooal trains may run. The Minneapolis A Bt. Louis road notified the governor that It was now delivering coal at small towns. In some of these places the stores were closed and business almost given up. At the atate institutions in northern Iowa, according to the Board of Control, there Is a shortage of coal. , Loos After Of fir. E. F. Loos of Des Moines has started' a campaign to become president of the Na tional AntJ-Trirst league, to be organised In Washington ,on March t Mr. Loos has written President Taft, asking his assist ance. He has rcoelved assuranos of assist ance from Senator Dolllver and other mem bers of the national board. The plan of the National Anti-Trust league, for. which a prelmlnary organisation has been per fected at Washington, la to perfect a na tional boycott on - such - combinations as Increase- the cost of living. Held to Medical Contract. The Jones County Medical society is held by the supreme court to- Its contract with the county to csre for the pauper 111 for a lump sum. One Jones, a stranger, fell from a circus train at Oltn and Dr. Brock gave him .medical attention. Jones county re fused to pay the doctor and set up that It had a contract with the Jones County Medical soolety for all the doctoring of the poor people and that the doctor was a member of 'the society. - The county had in fact contracted with the society to do all the doctoring for 11.525 a year.. Dr. Brock wanted extra pay for doctoring Jones and the lower court gave it to him. .He set up that the contract with the medical society was not good anyway.. The supreme court holds the county and the doctor to the contract . and says that after getting his share of the pay whioh came to the society the doctor was in no position to ask special compensation tor something done under the contract. : Sapresne Coort Decisions. W. B. Brock against Jones county, ap pellant. Jones county, reversed. Lowden-Savings bank, appellant, against A. Nailing, Cedar oounty, affirmed. Adam JSckert against Century Fire In surance company, appellant, Pottawat tamie county, affirmed. James N. Greenlee against CI. W. Early, appellant, Benton county, affirmed. John D. White agalnet Chicago & North western railway, appellant, Jones county, reversed. Mors on the Roto Maddle. Harry Wallace, secretary of the Corn Belt Meat Producers' association, returned today from Washington, where he assisted In presenting to the Interstate Commerce commission the Iowa shippers request for lower rates on hogs and cattle. He adds to the 'history of the case this much, that, as a matter of fact the first he knew of the pasfcage by the Iowa commission of a resolution stating it had investigated the bog rates and had found them all right, was on December 28, only nine days before the hearing was to be had in Washington, and this information came to him in a brief filed' by the railroad attorneys. It was then that he insisted on the Iowa commission taking it back, which it did. The whole matter has now come to the point where It is believed certain It will largely affect the political situation In Iowa this year. Already there are several candidates for positions on the Iowa com mission and others will be brought out, ' Collection of Taxes. The state treasurer reports that during the last year his office collected of collateral inheritance taxes in Iowa tbe um of $242,876.18. This is the largest amodnl ever collected In any one year under the law providing for a collateral inheritance tax on all estates in Iowa not passing to direct heirs. The Insurance and corporation fees were also larger this year than ever before. ' .Carroll on Divorce Laws. Governor Carroll goes to Washington next week to appear at a national con vention of the governors and he has been asked by Governor Fort of New Jersey, who haa charge of the program, to speak on dlvoroe laws. Inasmuch as the Iowa governor is not a lawyer his viewpoint will have to be that of the plain citlsen. but he Is preparing to present some, vigorous Ideas as to the necessity of better laws regulating divorce. Student Disappears Suddenly.

Howard Easton, a prominent Ida' county farmer, some months ago purchased a thoroughbred Sootch .oollle, and thla fine animal has now presented him with three little puppies, that are worth almost their weight in gold, they being pure white with sable ea.ro. A altle .thoroughbred oollle pup of this sort is very rare and very val uable, and for three to come in one litter Is almost unheard of, and there is no ques tion but what they are worth 1309 each now, and will be worth several times that when they reach maturity. as ton say the only white oollle he sver saw before belonged to a man by the name of Loucks from Indiana, who bought tt in Scotland foi 1500 and exhibited it at the Iowa state fair.

STOCKS MOVE 'DOWNWARD Continued Liquidation Causes Slump in Pnoes in Wall Street. STEEL LEADS THE DECLINE Dae ta rear of Effect of Decision la Tobacco and Oil Cases Ifarrl snans and Hills Also Affected. NEW YORK, Jan. 14. The downward movement In the stock market, which had Its Inception last week and has proceeded with more or less regularity since that time, assumed larger proportions today, when on heavy liquidations prices crumbled throughout the list. There was demoral isation in the rinal hour and 'the closing left a majority of the active Issues at the lowest level seen In many weeks. So many conflicting conditions enter into the market situation at this time that it would seem Idle to attribute the steady attrition of prices to any specific reason. In some quarters the situation is likened to thst in the fall of 1907, but the sound position of the banks, the increasing ease of money, the continuance of prosperous business in almost all commercial business and commercial lines Is in themselves nough to offset such fears. The recent Rock Island episode undoubt edly gave rise to misgiving and the pres ent status of the American Tobacco and the Standard Oil company in Washington are not reassuring to the conservative ele ments, whose operations in the securities market are always to be reckoned with. Trading today reached the large total of 1,258,000 shares. Of this amount over 23 per cent was contributed by United States Steel, which touched the lowest level 84 attained since last October. Other stocks that helped swell the day's business were Reading, In which over 200, 000 shares changed hands, and Union and Southern Pacific. The largest net loss was in Consolidated Gas, which declined almost six points, while other declines ranging from two to three points were general. The bond market was affected to an un usual degree, all the better known Issues showing severe declines. LETTERS POM BDREETT (Continued from Page One.) DEATH RECORD. II.' J. Sheppard. ST.

W1IEDON KEEPS IP FIGHT Says Nebraska Senator Was Not 1 Hlarnt on Tariff. (From a Btaff Correspondent.) LINCOLN. Jan. 14. (Hpeclal Telepram.) C. O. Whedou, who returned today from a trip to the southm-est, In an Interview en dorsed the meeting of self-styled Insurgents which was held In his interest, and de nounced the members of congress who voted for the tariff bill. The party In con gress had not kept Its pledges, he said, and the congressmen and senstors who voted for the bill were to blame for the dissatis faction In the ranks of the party. He also made public tluouKh Frank Har rison his letter in reply to the letter he received from Hany F outer of Omaha, which was referred to by Henator Burkett this morning. After saying In the letter that the tariff was a repudiation of the party pledges, he said he did not see how any Nebrasksn could vote for the bill, snd that he had tried to draw Equator Burkett out on the matter, but had not bean successful. Sena tor Burkett, hs said, should be dofeated for re-election unless hs can Justify his course, which, he said, he had not done up to this time. Congrmmsn Norrls also wrote a letter to Frank Harrison in which hs criticised HARD TIME TO GET SPEAKERS Convention to Endorse Candidate Hnntlna- for Men. (From a 8taff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. 14.-(Speclal.) Senator La Follette has wired the self-styled Lincoln progressive insurgents that he cannot at tend their meeting called for next Thurs day, . and as Oiford Plnchot had already wired his inability to be here, and so had William Allen White and Attorney General Byers of Iowa, the meeting will be ad dressed by local talent only. That none of the outsiders would come has been a severe blow to the hopes of the warriors, for the weight of the entire gov ernment is getting heavy on their shoulders and they hoped to divide responsibility with some of the national Insurgents. That Senator La Follette and Mr. Plnchot and the other dignitaries invited did not con sider the coming meeting of more impor tance than any other business now before the public was also a surprise to the leaders of the movement and has dampened some of the enthusiasm. However, the meeting will not lack for speakers, for the woods are full of talk ers. Prof. O. E. Howard, who is one of the' heads of the movement, may be drafted to speak, and If he delivers the same speech hs made to the students of the university in behalf of Mr. Bryan during the last campaign the wildest In surgent could not fall to be pleased. In that speech Prof. Howard praised the democratic presidential candidate as the one man possessed Of the great ability to successfully manage the affairs of the government. The Insurgents are also anxious to get a speaker out of Omaha, and It is possible that Attorney Irwin of thst city may be invited. While there is interest and anxiety among the progressives over the speak ers' list there is more Interest on the outslrt regarding the invitation list. Bo far the names of thoss who are to re ceive bids to the affair have been kept secret, the mere announcement Deins made that only known Insurgents wouia be Invited. Bo until the meeting is really held and the names st those ettendlng published the public will not know wn the real genuine Insurgents sre. The Weather FOR NEBRASKA Fair, rising tmepra ture.
