Careful estimate of tha number of automo
biles owned by farmers In the entire United
SUtes Is 78.000.
Nowadays there Is no more cry about lack
of op-portunlty on tha farm. Sixteen auto
mobile maker are advertising autos to the
farmer In tha 450 farm papers of tha coun
try, and moat or them are arguing that the
automobile will keep tha boy on the farm,
and make life more livable for the wife,
whoee dreary round of labor ha been the
pity of tha country.
Now tha farmer with an auto can take his
family for an evening oaJl, or lecture, with
out using Ms horses. H can go to church
on Hunday mora regularly; ha can visit dis
tant relatives and friends more frequently;
ne can go to town ortener and mora
quickly. One Dakota farmer who Is ex
tremely fond of hunting, but lives forty
miles from tha game district, takea his aon
with him on Saturday during the seaaon
and comes back Sunday night with a deer
or two slung across tha radiator, and bub
bling over with tales of his trip.
There are 48,000,000 people living on farms
and In towns of lexs than 4,000 In this coun
try. Thds means (hat over half of our pop
ulation 4s practically In the country. About
ti.OOO.OOO of shee are young people, and they
are just as keen for vleaaura aa young peo
ple anywhere else. That Is on big reason
for the automobile on the farm. Ten or
fifteen years ago farmers bought organs
for their daughters and buggies for their
sons. A great many of them are today buy
ing autoa for tha whole family. Aa entirely
new m waning has been given to tha village

rK8 MOIXE8, Is, April 1 (Special
Telegram. --Incldental to the meeting
in hl sclty of the convention of Iowa
miners the Trades and I.ahnr assembly
Is conducting a series of meetings for
revival of Interest In union labor. To
night an address was given by H. J.
Pkeenflngtonn, representing the i shoe
workers, and this will be followed by
meetings addressed by organizers for
the clgarmakers, the freight handlers.
arment workers, barbers, the tuberculo
sis movement and farmers' co-operatives.
President White of the miners started
the week with an urgent address urging
the workers In - all lines to join the
unions. In speaking .of the general la
bor situation, Mr. White declared that
unionism Is assailed on all sldea by men
of cunning and great wealth and political
Influence, who are constantly battling
to wipe out the movement, and unless
the unions strengthen themselves they
win fall before the greed of great
wealth.
Poison la Candy.
After partaking freely of candy de
livered by an unknown messenger boy,
Mrs. Oeorge Stewart was taken vio
lently til and came near dying, while
her sister. Miss Mattle V. Newton, who
ate sparingly of the sweet, was slightly
111, but able to care for her sister. De
tectives have been wholly unable to
gain a clue to the mystery of the poi
soning. No More Mia for Quarter.
The Des Moines Street Car company
sprung a surprise on the public today
by withdrawing the sale of car tickets
at six for a' quarter and resumed the
straight 6-cent rate. This followed the
election when the candidates supported
by the company were defeated and the
plans which hod been laid for securing
a franchise fellxthrough. It Is the com
mon belief that tho company will un
dertake to make conditions so dlsagree
able that the people will demand of the
council a franchise on tha terms wanted.
NELSON AND BRANDE1SCLASD
(Continued from First Page.)
Agent H. T. Joones, for the "prosecution"
were false. -
The direct examinations occupied but a
few mlnuUs, the cross-examination by
Mr. Brandeis taking up the remainder of
the session.
Mr. Todd and Mr. Love were prepared
for the onslaught of the Glavls attorney
and their answers were sometimes as sharp
as the thrusts of the lawyer. There has
been testimony before the committee from
time to time indicating that Mr. Love as
special agent was "warped" In his Judg
ment" by the fact that he was a candidate
for the marshalship in tha third .division
of Alaska. He was asked today what In
fluence he actually was depending upon to
get the place. '
"Well," he began, "I happened to be a
trooper in Colonel Roosevelt's regiment"
"You need go no, further," interrupted
Senator Flint, amid laughter.
Committee Divides on Purty Lines.
As tha hearmg progresses inc.ca.ions mul
tiply that tha congressional committee Is
so seriously split along party lines that a
unanimous report Is beyond the bounds of
possibility. The democratic members have
gone so far as to notify their republican
colleagues that tha democrats will partici
pate In the executive sessions of the com
mittee, butonly on tha understanding that
tha democrats shall be free to announoe
In publlo meetings the votes and the con
tentions that take place during the private
sittings. ,;
The executive sessions have not been har
monious, especially the one of Saturday last
when the question of compelling Secretary
Balllnger to testify as the first witness for
the "defense" was under consideration.
Following this session the democrats an
nounced that with the exception of Senator
Purcell they had voted !n favor of com
pelling the secretary of the Interior to ap
pear at once. Representative Madison of
Kansas, insurgent, voted with the demo
crats. Whether Mr. Madison will vote with the
df nr-ociat members when ths verdict comes
to be taken Is a question. His course dur
ing the examination of witnesses has given
but slight Intimation of his position. Sen
ator Purcell voted with the republicans
last Saturday 'simply because, as a lawyer,
ha declared the "defense" should have the
right to call its witnesses at Its pleasure,
the same privilege having been granted
the "prosecution."
Todd Contradicts Jones.
Elmer E. Todd. United States district at
torney at Seattle, Wash., was the first
witness called. Mr. Todd contradicted cer
tain statements made by Special Agent II.
Id. Jones when he was teatlfylng for Louis
R. Glavls. He said Jones' statement that
he had advised against criminal action In
the Alaska cases "because Judge Sanford
was constitutionally opposed to land fraud
trials generally," was absolutely false.
Mr. Vertrees asked Mr. Todd If he fiad
been consulted some time ago regarding a
possible prosecution against Glavls for let
ters missing from his office when he
turned It over to his successor, Chrlsten
sen. It Is claimed the letters afterward
were f-jund In a box belonging to Glavls.
Mr. Todd said Chrlstensen complained to
him In December that the letters were
missing. About this time copies of these
missing letters began to appear Iri a weekly
paper with the announcement that more
were to follow.
During Ills cross-examination of the wit
ness. Attorney Brandeis showed him some
of the Jones' daily reports, one of which
said he had conferred with Todd in re
gard to the criminal prosecution In the
Christopher group.
"Didn't Mr. Jones confer with you at that
time?" asked the attorney.
"No, sir; ha may- have dropped Into the
office to leave a letter. I said I had to
look over the . papers before giving sn
opinion."
"Can't you conceive a conference without
giving an opinion?"
"I can conceive a good deal of Mr. Jones'
testimony."
"What object would he have In making
these reports If he did not have the con
ference ?"
"To show thst he was working when he
was not," retorted the witness.
"Weil, what was he doing?"
"He was 'running around here and there
roaklvg dally reports."
"He presented this matter to you. didn't
her-
"Tes. but not fully; not so fully as he
ought to have dora."
Qaarrer In raaimltlea.
The cross-examination as to a letter
Olavla had written to the department at
Washington urging criminal prosecution In
certain cases soon led the committee Into a
quarral which lasted nearly an hour and
brought out anew the strength of the
partisan feeling which has grown up.
Attorney Brandeis resd s copy of the
Clevis letter which he ssld had come from
the files of the forestry services
"But that letter wss never sent," com
mented Mr. Todd.
'How do you know thst?" demanded Mr.
Brandeis.
"Olavla o testified before this commit
tee." Chslrmsn Nelson ssked Mr. Brsndels If
there wss anything to show thst the letter
hsd been sent.
"There Is no direct evidence," replied the
attorney.
"But It Is the letter Glavls testified he
never sent," persisted the chairman.
"It Is the letter thl wltnfs says Mr.
Olavls' t'stirlrd he did not send." re
torted Mr. Brandeis.
Attorney Vertrees read the Glavls testi
mony In which Glavls said he did not
sirtt the letter, because be heard Com
missioner I'ennett of the land office was
coming to Seattle and he could talk It
over with him. As Mr. Vertrees con
cluded, Chairman Nelson turned to Mr.
Brandeis and said:
"You know that; why did you conceal
that fart? Why didn't you tell the com
mittee?" Brandeis Resents Charge.
"Mr. Chairman," shouted the attorney, in
a voice wmcn couru oe nearn rar aown
the corridors, "I object strenuously to the
statement that I have attempted to con
ceal anything. My course has been such
before this committee that such a state
ment la absolutely Improper and ought to
be withdrawn."
Representative Graham, (democrat): ."I
move that the chairman be directed to
withdraw that remark."
Representative James: "I necon the mo
tion."
Chairman Nelson: "I won't withdraw It."
Representative Graham: "I Insist that my
motion be put."
Representative McCall said that p did
not think It was necessary, as he did not
think Mr. Brandeis had attempted to con
ceal anything oro deceive the committee.
Representative James said It was recog
nized that an .attorney should have the
widest latitude. In cross-examination and
that Mr. Brandeis "ought not to be
Jerked up.
Representative Graham: "This Is not the
first time the chairman has by. Inference
reflected upon Mr. Brandeis. I Insist that
my mothlon be put."
Madison as Peacemaker.
Representative Madison acted as peace
maker with tome , success. He said he
thought the chairman's remark was made
hastily and h,e did not sympathise with
It. At i the same time, he "continued. It
must be understood that the chairman
spoke as an Individual and did not
represent the 'opinion of the committee.
"We are standing before the country In
this Inquiry," continued Mr. Madison, "and
If anybody is biased or Impartial it is be
ing written by the newspaper men.
Every member of the committee must
stand upon his own record. - What the
chairman says Is his personal view, ex
cept when, he makes an announcement as
the result of a1. vote.-
Mr. Brandeis said, that in .view of Mr.
Madison's statement he was willing to
allow the record to stand. (
Senator Fletcher of Florida, moved that
Mr. Graham's motion be amended to read
that the chairman's remark did not re
flect the view of tha committee.
Representative Olmstead moved that the
whole mafter be Ikld on the -table.
A roll call was demanded on this motion
and the mptlon was adopted by a vote of
six to three.
The ayes were: Senators" Sutherland and
Purcell (democrats, and Representatives
McCall, Olmstead, Denby and. Madison.
The nays wera Senator Fletcher . gnd
Representatives James and Graham.
Todd Contradicts ' WIchersham.
Mr; Brandeis here read to the witness a
paragraph from Attorney General Wicker
sham's statement to the president on the
Glavls charges, In which he declared, al
though Glavls was Informed that criminal
proceedings must be begun before the May
grand Jury In 1908, he took no steps what
ever to bring these prosecutions. The at
torney demanded tq.know If that was true.
; "The May date Is a mistake. I Informed
Glavls and Jones that the matter must be
taken up before the July grand Jury. The
statement otherwise is true, except that
Jones came to me with some scattering
affidavits." j
The attorney and tha witness got Into a
heated argument as to what constituted a
"step" In criminal prosecution. Mr.. Todd
said a step'was a movement forward.
. "But .it might . be a backward move
ment?" suggested Mr. Brandeis.
"It might be." .
Mr. Todd insisted he never had a con
ference with either Glavls or Jones.
"Don't you know Glavls had been ordered
by the land office to let go of the Alaska
matters on May 2, 1908, and to devote him
self to the Oregon land cases."
"I have heard so."
Mr. Brandeis attacked the witness from
time to tlma with characteristic severity,
but Mr Todd .answered bluntly and In a
manner which seemed to irritate the at
torney. ,
Na Eteroff Contract.
Mr. Todd testified as to the Wilson cosl
land cases In which he appeared as
prosecutor, that there never was an escrow
agreement drawn up In this case so rar as
the record showed.
Glavis had testified that he had been
told that Mr. Balllnger had drawn up such
an agreement ana mat rraua ui a iru
nature was Involved In the transaction.
Mr. Todd said ths escrgw agreement in
the Wilson case was a verbal .one. Mr.
Balllnger did draw up deeds for two of
the claimants. So far as he knew, that
was his only connection with the esse.
Mr. Brandeis put the two rlee; in evidence.
They bore the date of August. 1902.
Mr. Brsndels said he would undertake
to show to the committee thst Attorney
General Wickersham had few. If any, facts
befor him upon which to base his crit
icisms of Glavls for procrastination and
alleged failure to bring criminal prosecu
tion.
Mr. Todd safd he knew of no agreement
from which Mr. Balllnger's name was to
bo left .out of the Wilson coal company
cases. As a miner of fact. Mr. Balllnger's
name did appear Several times In the
record.
Witness Favorable to Balllngrer.
Mr. Todd admitted he had taken an Inter
est in the proceedings before the commit
tee and his Interest was favorable to Mr,
ttalllnger. He said his Interest had been
aroused by the statement In a paper that
certain rK:ords In his office had been
rhansed. He examined the records anil
found the charge was false.
As to the letters alleged to have been
concealed by Glavis. Mr. Todd said ha did
not consider the evidence against Glavls
sufficient, to warrant a prosecution and so
wrote to the attorney general.
Mr. Vertrees resd from a ststement by
Commissioner Dennett a telegram, bearing
a date In April, and saying criminal pro
secutions must be In hand the following
month. He read thla In Justification of
Attorney General Wlckersham'S statement
as to the presentation of testimony In May
190a, snd to contradict Mr. Brandeis. Ths
latter, however, ssld he had mentioned this
fact.
j "I failed to catch that part of your state-
ment," ssld Mr. Vertrees amid laughter.
Mr. Todd ass excused, ss the cohimlttee
took the luncheon recess.

DOES FOURTEEN MEN'S WORK
Arlhar F. Griffith and Some of
nemarkable Stunts la
Mathematics.
Hla
LlfflnViing calculators have perodlcally
appeared during the past two or three
centuries. Some have developed their
powers precociously and. as "Infant prodl
gies, nave astounded all who cama In con
tact with them. But usually this prema
tura development. Involving such an un
naturally great strain on the young mind,
resulted either in an ultimate dimming of
the Intellect to a state about equal to tha
normal mental capacity, or aggravated.
brought on an early dotage..
others or these mathematical wisards,
Dorn. with' an Inherent attraction for fig
ures, have progreased by comparatively
rapid, although not precipitate, - stages
un4g with a more naturally developed
system they are able at twenty, at thirty
and at forty years to outstrip easily all
competitors In the race with figures.
To this latter class, it now appears, be
longs Arthur F. Qrlffith, (known on the
vaudeville stage as- "Marvelous Griffith.")
This youns man he has vet n attain hi
thirtieth year Is possessed of extraordi
nary powers or mental calculation, has a
remarkable memory for figures, and Is
able to carry oh several mathematical
operations in his mind at the same time.
The truly wonderful part of his story lies
In the fact that he Is a product of the
farm.
Without pen, pencil, or paper; without
slate, blackboard, or chalk, this wizard
of figures can raise a figure to the sixth
power in about eleven seconds; can multi
ply threa figures by three figures in five
seconds, can multiply nine figures by nlno
figures in eight seconds. Griffith deals In
millions and quadrillions rather than In the
ordinary digits. But this figure faculty
of his has grown so wondrously that its
great development has rendered difficult
tha proper cultivation of other mental fac
ulties. Thus Griffith's aptitude Is for fig
ures entirely, rather than for a conversa
tion on any general curent theme. In. fact,
he lives in flgues. Walking, he simul
taneously calculates distance, time, and
energy. His distance he reduces to Inches,
time to seconds, and In computing his ex
penditure of energy the problom winds Its
solution in his conception of the size of his
next meat. Again, his narrowness of com
prehension In general matters Is illustrated,
for Griffith's meals all are built around
ham and eggs, mainly eggs. ''
For years he has been the bewilderment
of mathematical and psychological profes
sors In America's foremost seats of learn
ing. Members of these departments of
Harvard and Vale universities have quizsed
him on his capacities for mental calcula
tion. Chicago and Indiana universities.
Armour Institute, and Northwestern uni
versity, too, have experienced his mar
velous work.
Within a few days he convinced many
skeptics among the mathematical and
psychological professors at Harvard that
he Is possessed of the powers which he
claims. As a result of this exhibition, In
which twoscore of professors were aligned
against him and shot at him friendly
broadsides of queries and. problems Involv
ing every phase of mathematical calcula
tion except the "fourth dimension," he re
ceived from Prof. Hugo Munsterberg, pro
fessor In psychology, a testimonial of his
feat. '
Griffith is always ready with demonstra
tions of his marvelous power. Ha rattles
forth a succession of words and figures
mainly figures forming his query, and be
fore one can follow him has it answered.
The following Include a few suggestions
which he makes for an examination in
mathematics. Ha claims to have ths an
swer to each at his tongue's end:
What is the compound interest on 1
cent at ( per cent from the birth of Christ
to the present date, and how far would
that many sliver dollars reach In the air If
placed flat and against each other on every
square foot of a clear and level tile floor.
23.000 miles In circumference?
"Which numbers with six figures to each,
raised to the sixteenth pdwer, make 219,681
the last six figures, and what Is the six
teenth powers of each of those numbers?
'What Is the sum of twenty-five numbers
with twenty-five digits each that always
will divide two with ths exponent twenty-
five out evenly with only two of the. digits
In each number?
'What two sums of all numbers from 1
upward added makes a sum of all numbers
from 1 upwsrd; substracted leave a sum of
all numbers from 1 upward, and multiplied
make a sum of all numbers from 1 upward
added?
'How many standplpea 24.000 miles In
circumference (the distance around the
earth) and vMOO.OOO miles deep (the dis
tance between the earth and sun) would be
required to hold ons vlrglntllllon drops of
water If It required 61,440 drops of water to
make ona gallon."
"Light mental exercises," Mrk Griffith
characterises these.
In connection with his wonderful memory
It Is Interesting, perhaps, to note that
Griffith claims to be able readily to recall
numbrs by reason of a sort of mental
biographic operstlnn. He says that ths
mention of a number Is followed by Its ap
pearance before his mind's eye, literally,
and that then there Is communicated to
him tha ona system of the 1.500 which he
has evolved to aid him properly In an ex
peditiously correct solution. New Tork
