Place of Meeting, 1911 Fort Dodge.
After electing the above officers for the
ensuing year and selecting Fort Dodge as
the place of ; meeting for Mil, yesterday
afternoon the Iowa Independent Telephone
association completed the business of Its
annual convention. .....
No action was taken by the convention
In the matter of merging the independent
telephone companies of the state along the
line proposed by the Nebraska association.
The matter was generally discussed, but
the urgent need of such an Incorporation
was not deemed necessary at this time, al
though the merging of the different inde
pendent systems of the state may be ef
fected at a later date. The matter of tak
ing steps to Incorporate the several inde
pendent, companies was referred to the ex
ecutive committee, which will prepare the
necessary papers and report back at the
convention tiext year.
The Iowa independent telephone com
panies, It was stated, already have a close
organization and, although they are not In
corporated, the convention did not feel that
such a step was of such Immediate Import
ance In Iowa' as It apparently was In Ne
braska. .'
No Contest on Election.
The election ot officers was made on the
recommendation of a nominating commit
tee, of which F. J. Day, president of the
Council Bluffs Independent company, was
chairman. There was no contest and the
report of the committee was unanimously
adopted.
Ottumwa was In the field for the 1911
convention, but withdrew from the contest
when its representatives realized that oFrt
Dodge was favored by a majority of the
members. Ottumwa, however, will go after
the 1912 convention, and. In fact, was prac
tically assured that It will get the meeting
that year. Following the withdrawal of
Ottumwa the selection of Fort Dodffe as
the meeting place for next year was by
unanimous vote.
Resolutions were adopted thftnklng P. C.
Holdoegel of Rockwell City, the retiring
president, for his efficient administration
of the office; expressing appreciation for
the royal reception and entertainment ten
dered the delegates In this city, and thank
ing the manufacturers of telephone equip
ment -tot their Interest and financial sup
port A resolution was also adopted ap
proving the mutual Insurance plan pre
sented by J. B. Hoge of Cleveland, O.
Beyond the election of officers and se
lection of next year's meeting plabe, the
association transacted but little business
yesterday, as many of the delegates were
anxious to take the trains for their respec
tive homes. ' , '

Street Carnival
"to Be Revived
Business Ken Unanimous to Hare
September Festival Again
-in Fall.
The annual street fait and carnival, which
proved suchV a success In Council Bluffs for
several years, but was discontinued three
years ago, la to be revived. This was de
cided upon yesterday noon at the Crand
hotel, when several business men met at the
Invitation of Mayor Maloney to discuss the
proposition. The sentiment of the meet
ing was unanimous In having another street
fair and carnival Id September and no time
will be lost In getting preparations started.
The proceeds of the carnival. It was de
cided, will be usejyio defraying the ex
penses of the National Horticultural Fruit
exposition. If any balance remains It will
be used In Improving the roads leading Into
the city. v
Those who met. with Mayor Maloney and
discussed the proposition around the lunch
eon table were K. H. Doollttle,' chairman
of the executive committee of the Commer.
clal club; J. P. Hess, president of tho Na
tional Horticultural congress; Freeman L.
Rer-d, general superintendent of the Fruit
exposition, and II. A. Qulnn, Charles-Beno
and B. M. Sargent, directors b the old
Council Bluffs Street " Fair and .Carnival
company. '
"We will have a carnival again this fall,"
said Mayor Maioney after the ' lunohenn.
'All present at the meeting expressed
themselves as Jn favor of It and arrange
ments will be made for 11 this coming
week. Some 6f the carnival committee
were out of the city and could not at
tend the meeting, ut they have Vail ox-
pressed themselves as favoring the proposl
tton." .
"The officers of the National Horticul
tural oongresa will assist In the move-
ment," declared Mr. Hess. "We are going
to have the carnival and, of course, It will
be to our Interest to help all we can. If
we are to have a successful fruit show
again this "year we should be assured of
from $3,000 to. 16,000 to meet any deficit that
might arise. In former years the street
fair and carnival was a paying proposition
and unless something unforeseen should
happen would be again. The carnival has
always proved popular and I believe Vhe
people of Council Bluffs win welcome Ice
revival."
KETCHl'M WILL NOT LEAVE JOB
State Commissioner Has No Thought
of ReatB-nlngr.
'I. certainly have no intention of resign
ing, but after I reaoh home and look the
situation over I may decide to Issue a state
ment, although my first thought was to
Ignore It," said State Railroad Commis
sioner N. S. Ketchum yesterday when
asked what course he intended pursuing
relative to the demand of a - Des Moines
paper that he resign because of the com
mission's action in the case brought before
the Interstate Commerce commission by
the Corn, Belt Meat Producers' association.
Mr. Ketchum said he had not seen the
article. In question, but had read some
references to It in the Kansas City papers.
The aotlon of the board, .Mr. Ketchum
said, was a matter of record at all times
and there was no desire to -keep the mat
ter secret. In fact, he supposed the meat
producers' representative had a oopy of
the resolution referred to and which caused
the trouble.
Mr. Ketchum made this statement yester
day while In Council Bluffs for a few hours
between trains on his way home from San
Antonio, Tex., where he attended the con
vention of the National Association of State
Railway Commissioners. He said that' he
would be in Council Bluffs in about two
weeks and at that time would be glad to
confer with the business men of the city
on any matters that might properly come
before the commission,

fense which rested at S o'clock Frldav aft.
crnoon. The defense was spurred to a last
desperate effort, when the state slaved Its
high card In presenting the testimony pf
jra Brundridge, who turned against" his
co-defendants when the charges against
him were dismissed.
Brundrldjre' told a bitter, tragic story of
sickening details surrounding the crime
Ills testimony completed the state's chain
aim me arguments Dy mi aerense fol
lowed. County Attorney Burke and J. J
Hess of Council Bluffs, who havs con
ducted the prosecution, will make their
arguments In the. morning. It is expected
the caso will go to the Jury by noon.
The Introduction of Brundrldge's testi
mony was a sudden move on the part of
the State and one for which the defense
had not prepared.
Brundrldge on the witness stand told of
his visit to the Marley home at the time
the shooting took place. He and Guy Mar-
ley naa nought two Jugs of whisky at
Dow City, going to Loaan. where thv
stayed all night oft December 1. They went
to tne Marley home In the morning of the
next day.
"Guy was kind o sore before we went in
tne nouse," said 'Brundrldge, telling his
startling tale.'I asked him to stop carry,
lng on and he said .-'Thore'll be a cleaning
up around here If I ain't let alone.'
"Then we went into the house, me fol
lowing Guy. I saw him with the srun in
his hand. Mrs. Marley was trying to get
him to stop smashing uD the furniture tnrl
dishes. I went on Into the bedroom.
"In a minute or two I heard a shot. I
laid down on the bed and went to sleep."
'Went to sleep!" exclaimed an attorney,
"Yes. I didn't see who was shot drwho
did the shooting." .
Monte Marley, the young son of the dead
oman, outwitted the attorneys for the
fense, -while on the stand yesterday after
noon. The little chap told a concise tale of
the part of the affair that came under his
observation.
"Mamma was always afraid of Guv. all
the time," he said, simply.
The boy's tone pictured the ablect terror
of the dead woman's life In their home with
tne drunken stepson. Monte told of a day
when Ouy Marley threatened his mother
with a knife, and of her flight to the home
of a neighbor.
"I ran out of the house when T kw (lnv
pick up the gun," he said. "I went Into
tne orcnard, and then I heard tho shot.
Mamma came running out
'I am ahot,' was aH she aald' -
The boy ran on ahead of his'-Minther no.
oordlng to his story, to the home of the'
Weatherly family to summon aid. .
The defense gave the bor a merriiMa
searching ordeal of questions, which failed
to snake mm from his simple statements.
Monte, how did you and your mother at

'Wa not your house located baok In ha

asked the attorney. '
"Yes," replied the lad.

The general elections in England begin on January 17 and
continue until February I. The dispatches each day will report
the progress of the polling, but in addition to the cable news there
will appear in this paper a special series of articles, direct from
England, by FREDERIC J. HASKIN. y
It is needless to remind the reader of the importance of
this campaign. Whether the Liberals or the Conservatives win,
the British Constitution will be changed. If the Liberals are
victorious, it means that the Lloyd-George budget will stand, and
that the House of Lords will either be abolished or so reformed
as to make it entirely ineffective in legislation. If the Conserv
atives win, it means that the House of Lords will be given the
power to veto financial legislation in Parliament, a power not
exercised since the day of Cromwell and Charles I. Further
more, a Liberal victory will mean the adherence of the British
nation to a program of social reform which includes the prin
ciple of the single-tax and other features which are termed
"socialistic" in America. A Conservative victory, on tne other
hand, will mean an abandonment of the Free Trade policy, to

These articles will describe the methods of campaigning i i
In JLnfland as contrasted with those in the United States.
They will explain exactly what the budget is. and why it has.
stirred up such a great commotion. They will inolude amus
ing features of the campaign, such as the heckling of speak
ers, the warfare waged by the militant suffragettes, the
campaigning by noble ladies and backwoods barons who

SENATORS TOLD TO GET BCSY
Practical Ultimatum Sent to Upper
House by President.
PLEDGES MUSI BE REDEEMED
Carter, Penrose' and Crane Are Sim.
in our d to the White House and
Asked Abont Postal Sav
ings Bill.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22. President Taft
read In the papers Friday that the senate
was marking time while the nouse Is strug
gling with the various appropriation bills.
So he sent-for Senators Penrose of Penn
sylvania, Crane of Massachusetts and Car
ter of Montana and asked why it would
not be a good thing for the senate to "get
busy" on some of the measures hs, has
recommended. Bene tor Aldrlch, being ab
sent from the city, was not included In ths
summons. " '
The president broached ths subject of
the postal savings bank bill. All three of
the senators thus summoned to the Whits
House this afternoon are members of the
committee on postof flees and postroads,
Mr. Penrose is ohatrman. Senator Carter
Is sponsor for the messure. Put some sen
ators, It was suggested in reply to the
president, are not warm advocates of postal
banks. In fact. It Was paid that such
slates as Massachusetts and Pennsylvania
great strongholds of savings Institutions
are' not at all In favor of the scheme.
But, the president argued, the republican
platform called tor postal savings banks,
and surely the senators were going to re
deem ths party pledges.
House Is All Rlaht.
But what about the house? This wa
propounded as a poser. ,
President Taft la said o have assured
the senators that they heed not worry
about the house. It Is said that there Is
every reason to believe that the house Is
oouilng around all right; that its members
are com lng" to the president for the very
good reason that they have no other place
to go. ' .
'It la a cas of water running down
hill," sold one of the president's callers
today. "Hi does not have to go to the
regulars or the insurgents, either. They
have gut to come to hlra. Avery man on
Capitol hill Is looking for another term
and he's got to have something to go before
the people on. Congrms has got to do
something and all the republicans, regard
less of the fight against Cannon or the
rules committee, are going to vote for Mr.
Tad's measures."
So Jt happened when Messrs. Penrose,
Crsne and Carter left ths White House,
the latter acting as spokesman for the
trio, declared;
' "The postal savings bank proposition will
become a law a this session."
The postal bonks, however, will npt be
the first of the Taft measures considered.
The president ranks his recommendations
for changes in the Interstate commerce
taw as of first Importance and he so
Indicated his position to the senators this
afternoon.
' The president told his callers also that
he regarded at least one of the conserva
tion bills he has recommended to congress
as of prims importance. This Is the bill
to validate ths wlthdrswsl of lands oon
tatnlng water power sites, coal and phos
phates. Tne laws as to the disposition of
these lands can be worked out and
threshed over st ths convenience of con
gress. The Important thing, the president be
llevea, la to validate the withdrawals
which are msde under the former admin
istration and under the ten months of ths
present administration under the shadowy
power ot he secretary of the Interior.
. The president wants this newer to be
made unquestionable. The valuabls Alaska
eoai lands are Included In tbe withdrawals
which Mr. Taft .Is anxious to have vali
dated. Senators Penrose, Carter and Crane took
of an electorate.
rw, F lYA-
back this word to the capltol late Joday
and passed It along the line. President
Taft believes that the senate should go
ahead with these three measures at onoe,
and then, he says, the house can get them
In some sort of shape, can havs ths bene
fit of the senate discussion and oan put
ths measures through In short time onoe
the supply bills are disposed of.
The president is confident that Senator
Aldrlch will do all he can to further the
passage ot the. postal savings bank bill.
This bill, It Is argued, will give the leader
ot the senate an opportunity to show to ths
people of the country that they are to get
their share of the benefits of forthcoming
flnanolal legislation.
Mr. Aldrlch Is anxious to secure the sup
port of the country for the new currency
laws and the new central bank of issue, or
whatever form the legislation may take,
and the president believes the best way to
secure this support is to provide for the
postal banks. Ths president believes, first
of all, that the postal banks will not Inter
fere to any appreciable extent with the
savings banks which pay from I to 1 per
cent as against the i per cent Interest pro
posed to be paid by , government deposi
tories. - HS believes the government banks
will bring out many millions of dollars
now resting In stockings and sewed up In
mattresses by timid and thrifty people.
He thinks aUo it will prevent the great
outflow of cash to European banks each
year.
Arcusnent to Banks.
The argument to ths banks and financiers
Is that the deposits In the government banks
will permit the government to take up ths
$730,000,000 of 2 per cent government bonds
that have been Issued and which are a
drug on the market.
Many of the national banks were com
pelled to take thess bonds because they
feared their bank note circulation would bs
seriously limited otherwise. Tbe banks are
said to have lost manr millions of dollars
through the depreciation of these bonds
and it is generally reported they stand to
lose a great deal more when the Panama
canal bonds are Issued in the near future.
Throughout the remainder of the present
congress it Is agreed the caucus rule Is to
prevail In the house of representatives.
This state of affairs is credited to ths ef
forts of the president. The power of
Speaker Cannon and the rules committee
has been so far Impaired that the caucus
ha coins as the best and fairest means of
providing for legislation, Before each
caucus Is held the purpose of the gathering"!
Is to be announced and no other subject
is to be considered. Regulars and Insur
gents alike are to be Invited to suoh cau
cuses and In this way the administration
believes It is assured of the support of all
republicans. . '

Ths disturbance In Wan street Is appar

best tests, continues In a healthy and active
condition.
. A further perceptible broadening of ds-t'
mand for pig Iron Is noted at many leading .i
centers and In the matter of prloes, also,
the situation generally is more satisfactory
to producing Interests. In some districts
new business Is still light, but on ths whols
thers Is marked Improvement, with basic
and bessemer grsdes attraotlng much at
trition. Irregularity la still apparent In .
finished lines and there is evidence that
the railroads ars holding back considerable
new business, although car orders at the
west are quite liberal and several large
contracts are pending. Recent sales of rails
aggregated 40,000 tons, while about It, tut)
tons of structural material were booked
this week.
In the primary goods market, house sales '
are In progress, and rhs break in cotton...

are reported to be well cleaned up. Export

demand from the far east. Hosiery and
underwear are In better demand and new
fall lines in cotton dress fabrics are being
bought freely. Trsde In prints Is light. In
ginghams somswhat bettar and bleached
goods steady.
In the woolen goods division a sharp re
duction was made on heavy serge, whlla
the demand for fancy overcoatings Is satis

worsted drass goods were opened at mod
erate advances. Cotton yarns are dull,
worsted yarns steady ana woolen yarns
steady but quiet.

says:
Trads reports are or the usual mid

Inclement weather and also considerable
unsetileinent due to commodity price

Traveling men are now numerous on

Reports as to collections are Irregular,
It Is noted that a good deal of mousy U ,
tied up at present In grain, which has
been in transit for some tims, owing to
traffic interruptions due ;o storms and
the northwestern switchmen's strike.
Flnishsd steel Is less active, demands
from railroads being apparently held

wide revolt against high food prices is to'
be noted and anti-high price agitation
