Movement to Aid Five
Mm Tnnt.
The question of" the proper manner of
dividing up prlxe moneys I being de
bated In bowling circles over the west.
One of the most popular of the pres
nt systems Ik the plan of giving about
two-thirds fur teamwork and the other
third for Individual.
In formrr times more money was pjt
up for team events than for the Individual
bowlers, but the Influence of the crack
men lias brought It around In the other
direction.
Although the officials of the Mid-West
tournament did what the members had ex
I pressed aa their desires and everyone In
the tournarnrnt was entirely satisfied with
the results, it Is evident that a large
share of the money went to a few cracks.
The amount put up for five-men teams and
for doubles was II. TW and $7SG for Indi
vidual bowlers Hut out of the team prize
list comes i0 which went to two-men
teams. lavln only $!C6 for five-men
teams. Thtia two crack men on a doubles
team often took good money.
In Chlcugo a strong movement la being
made for more money to the teams and
Jens to the Individuals and rumora all
over the middle west ry that after this
the system of about one-fourth Instead of
one-third will prevail in tournaments.

James A. Patten
Again Indicted for
Corner in Cotton
Tentative Plea of Not Guilty Entered
Eight Counts Instead of Five
Contained.
NEW YORK. Tec. .-Jamee A. ration
of Chicago, Eugene Kcalea of Texas, Wil
liam P. Brown of New Orleans and others
were Indicted again today by a federal
grand Jury, charged with conspiring to
monopolize Interstate commerce In availa
ble cotton during the last four months of
the crop year ending September 10, 1910.
The Indictment was returned on August 4,
but did not go Into effect until today.
The accused, with their counsel, appeared
before Judge Hough In the criminal branch
of the United States district court and en
tered tentative pleas of not guilty. They
have until December 13 to demur, and
arguments will be heard on the third
Monday In January. The original Indict
ment was found last May, but the de
fendants objected, on the ground that the
special grand jury which returned It had
been Improperly drawn, and the govern
ment, fearing the courts might find the
plea In abatement well taken, decided to
resubmit the evidence to another grand
Jury, which handed down tha Indictment
today. It contains eight counts Instead of
five and lessens the number of defendants
by two, omitting Sydney J. Harman and
Charles J. Kittle, yet naming besides Pat
ten, Scales and Brown, Frank B. Hayne
and Colonel Robert M. Thompson, all of
whom were originally Indicted.

INCOME TAX WILL BE RATIFIED
Senator Brown Says States Against
Amendment Will Reconsider.
EIGHT STATES ALREADY IN LINE
Nebraska Senator Calls at the Whlta
Hons and Dlaensaea Nnaaher at
Appointments will Presi
dent Taft.
WASHINGTON. Dee. . That four out of
tha five states whose legislatures have
pronounced agalnat the Income tax amend
ment to the constitution as provided by
the Payne-Aldrlch tariff law, will recon
sider their decision an. align themselves
with the states supporting the provision, is
the opinion of Its author. Senator Norrts
Brown, of Nebraska.
Mr. Brown is very confident also that
the amendment will be ratified by the leg
islatures of more than the requisite three
fourths of the states during the present
winter. Already eight states Alabama,
South Carlolna, Illinois. Maryland, Ken
tucky, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Georgia
have passed ratification resolutions.
New Tork. Rhode Island, Massachusetts,
Virginia and Louisiana have refused to
endorse the proposed amendment, but Mr.
Brown declares there Is strong reason to
believe the legislatures-elect of those states
with probably one exception will reconsider
and ratify.
The week after election Senator Brown
WTote to all governors, urging their co
operation In the campaign for the amend
ment and enclosing a copy of the ratifica
tion resolution. He has had rsplles from a
very large majority of them, who favor the
amendment, and will in their messages
recommend the ratification. Among oth
ers. Is a strong letter from Ooveror-elect
Foss of Massachusetts. By only one gov
ernor has an adverse position been taken
and be represents a state which voted ad
versely last winter.
Brown at White House.
Senator Brown, who arrived Sunday,
taking rooms at the Arlington for the ses
sion, was an early caller at the White
House yesterday, discussing with the
president a number of appointments. In
cluding that of a placa on the supreme
bench.
Senator Crawford, In view of the fact
that this was "congressional" day at the
White House, took occasion to present the
name of Judge John F. Carland of the
federal district court of South Dakota for
a place on the circuit bench.
It will be Interesting news to a lot of
people in Nebraska to know that the post
masters' association of that state purposes
sending several of Its officers to Wash
ington to present the claims of a number
of candidates for their own succession.
Just how far the postmasters' association
will get Is problematical; in fact, it is ex
tremely doubtful if Postmaster General
Hitchcock will sanction any such proceed
ing, and before these self-constituted "de
fenders of the cause'1 come on to the
capital It might be well for them to find
out If their presence will be acceptable to
those who run tha Postofflca department
in this city.
Nebraska Affairs.
Senators Burkett and Brown today rec
ommended the appointment 'of Frank A.
Peucha for, postmaster at Howell. They
will probably Join in the recommendation
of a number of other persons to fill post-
office appointments In a day or two, there
being a number of vacancies now existing
and due early in January, South Omaha
being one of the most Important.
The supreme court today denied the peti
tlon for mandamus in the case of ex-parte
the Cudahy Packing company, which was
recently presented to the court by R. W.
Breckenrldge of Omaha, counsel for pell
tloner. 1
Victor Rosewater of The Bee, who at
tended the opening of congress today, left
for Baltimore this afternooi. He will to
to New York tomorrow, returning to Wash

dinner of the Gridiron club.
SOUTH DAKOTA SCHOOLS
MAKE CALLS FOR CASH
Educational Institutions Ask for In
creased Appropriations for
Salaries and Bnlldinars.
PIERRE. 8. D., Dec. . (Special.) If the
recommendatlono of the State Board of
Regents of Education in regard to the
needs of the various educational Instltu
tlons of the state are carried out by the
coming legislative session, the approprfa'
tlons will be materially heavier than for
the session of two years ago. While the
Btate university was granted (160,000 for
salaries and maintenance two years ago,
this year the board recommends $220,000 for
those Itema. '
The Btate School of Agriculture was
granted 1112,000 for the biennial period two
years ago and tha recommendations are for
$308,000 for the biennial period for this
session. This Increase Is caused to a cer
tain extent by recommendations of appro
priations of $20,000 each year for farmers'
institute work, and by the appropriation
for the new experiment stations which
were provided for by the last legislative
session, and which are now where they
will have to be cared for. The board also
recommends $206,000 for new buildings at
that school. The salary and maintenance
fund of the School of Mines Is recom
mended for an Increase from $06,000 to $70,
000 for the two years. The recommenda
tion for the Madison Normal Is an increase
of $7,000 for each of the yrara, a total of
$78,000. flpearflsh Normal recommendations
Increase from $so,OU to $!0O.Oiti with a
recommendation for $35,000 for buildings.
The Sprlngftela Normal recommendation is
for an Increase from $17,000 annually to
$23,000 annually, with a recommendation for
a building to cost $35,000 The Northern
Normal at Aberdeen should In the estima
tion of the board be Increased from $iu0,0o0
annually to .Vj,00 annually, with $11,000 fur
buildings and betterments.
These recommendations If carried out
will mean a heavy Increase in the appro
priations for the educational Institutions.
The board also will recommend that the
normal schools of the state be limited In
their bcope to purely the functions pre
scribed by statute and cut out the prepar
atory departments cf tnese schools which
should be filled by hth schools work in
stead of in state schools.

ready have been filed with the Interstate
Commerce commission under the decision
of the commission and tho L'nlted States

A typical cflse os that of the William
Warner k company of Floux City, la , against

pany, filed with the commlirrton tixlay.
Repnxatlon Is demanded on all shipments
of class freight from those territories! to

mission's original order.
The reduction sustained by the supreme
court, amounted to 9 cents a hundred

on all classes being from a AO-cent to a 60
cent scale.

ing in Chicago on December 21.

Drexel Resigns from
Aero Club of America
Johnstone'i World! Altitude Record
May Stand Under Rules Data
Given to Committee.
NEW YORK. lHc. The resignation of
J. Armstrong Drexel from the Aero Club of
America was a -cepteil tonight by the board
of governors with hi apologies for the open
criticism he made of the club's msjnago
ment of the International meet at Belmont
Park and Its treatment of the foreign avia
tors entered.
The club has not yet acted on tha report
received today from George S. Bliss of tha
l'nlted States weather bureau that tha
barograph Drexel took tip with him on his
Point ltreere fltrht Is a reltuble Instrument
and shows an altitude of 9.W feet a new
world'a record, but It Is probable that tha
record will be allowed.
All the data will be submitted to the con
test committee, whloh will refer Ita report
to the Intel national Aeronautical confer
ence. The rules governing trial for a world's
altitude flight provide that to win a world's
record the new figures must be at least
300 feet better than the old.
Thla Is to allow for the Inaccuracies of
barographs. Therefore, It I possible that
Johnstone's mark may still remain tha
record, although Drexel flew the higher.
At least DrxeJ will hold the American rec
ord If the lateit figures are accepted.
The resignation of John O. McCoy as vice
president of the club was laid on tha table.
Various committee were appointed of which
the most important, the executive com
mittee as follows: Alan A. Kyan. I. C. Mt
Coy, Charles Jerome Edwards, William H,
Miller, Major Snmuel Rober. Colonel Ja
rome S. Joyce and James A. Blair, Jr.
