At the beainnina; of tha aeaatnn of tha

agreed that two hours should be jlven tha
friends and foea of the btll and that the
Council Bluffs men should open tha argu

if the bill waa amended to prevent any
change In tha present method of tlng
railroads and other corporations, merely
permitting; tha cities to add to tha earpora

atlll stronger opposition from tha railroads,
but there la a chance, Mr. Kimball said,
that they might not be able to kill It.
"Such a compromise measure would gtva
ua soma relief," said Mr. Kimball, 'and
Would be better than nothing. Tha measure
We presented was a compromise, which of
itself did not give the relief tha cities are
entitled to. but if we get anything at all It

Testimony Given.
Shows Depreciation
Witaew Eiows what Conditio". Water
Pipes Gets Into at "Dead
Ends" of Service.
Proceedings to the waterworka condemna
tion ease yesterday were nut of an exciting
nature involving; a slight mixing of tha
direct and cross-examinations of the city's
witness aa Former Alderman J. Chris Jen
sen waa subjected to an hour's vigorous
questioning by the attorneye for the water
eempany after he had given bis evidence
showing the depreciation of the company's
buildings from tha standpoint of an expert
builder. He underwent the ordeal without
trouble and seemed to have a visible shads
tii a best at It all through.
Perhaps the strongest bit ef evldnnoa of
denreatatlon so far Introduced waa whan
the city produced a section of four-Inch
water main, which had been carefully cut
eut near a "dead end" where service would
not be Interrupted. The place was about
two feet long and its Interior could be
easily examined. Huge "tubercles." or
bllatere, filled with water- had raieed from
the surface of the Iran, reducing the ca
pacity ef the pipe nearly one-tnlrd. It was
sbowa that the eruptions did not in any
injure the Iron, and were so frail
that Way would give way before a sudden
rush of water, and this might ba eliminated
fcy tha "blow out." byt unless thua dia-
raroea wouia remain permanent obit ruc
tions to ths flow of the water.
Sfegtneer Burns was pia.ed on the stand
io continue nis depreciation teat'mony. At
f C slock, however. It waa necessary for
him to withdraw to make acme freau cutn
putatlone. During the day the daoraclaUon
aoeount Was increased to the extent of
nearly test. Tha end of tills caaa of
testimony was so nearly reattird t.iio. At
torn aim bail was last evemug enabled
t stats that tha total approximate depre
ciation would be HSijimu. reducing the div a

WASHINGTON, reh. il -Another blood-

hoiiee of repr eaentatt vea Thursday. It came
I during a somewhat heated debate nn a bill

The lie was paaaed. and aa the short and
ugly word rang out Delegate James Wlrher-
slmm of Alaska mails a rush for Repre
sentative FVank W. Mondell of Wyoming,
who was seated at a nearby desk.
The big Alaskan s riant arm shot out
twice In the direction of the gentleman from
Wyoming, but members who surrounded
ths disputants at the time say that both
blows fell short.
The house was in an uproar In an Instant.
Several members hurled themwlves on Mr.

EFFICIENCY Vs.
REDE RICK W. TAYLOR is a college-bred man
1"1 with a mind trained to take nothing for granted.
Circumstances compelled him to go to work in a
machine shop. He began to wonder why so many shovellers
produced such a small net result. He kept on wondering
until his modern "efficiency' ide"a displaced the "rule-of-thumb"
way and brought about a revolution in men. and
tools and working methods that will increase the industrial
output to a startling degree, while materially benefiting the
workers. Will Irwin, in his clear and readable manner, tells
how he did it.
The same awakened business man is appealed to in "Frogi'essive Arwntina," a
fully written and entertaining account of a new and increasing market, right at our
doors, for American necessities and American luxuries.

He sat down and Mr. Mondell arjsa
"My remark waa nut directed t.iaard
the gentleman from Alaska." Mr. Mondell
aid. "and It was not uttered in debate,
but to a gentleman who stood beside me.
t realize, however, that I should not have
used the word here, or anywhere, for that
matter, and I apoloeise to the house. "
During the applanne which followed Mr.
Minitcll a statement Mi. Tawney moved
tliat the house adjourn.
On a standing vote the motion apparently
waa carrii!. but the opponents of the
Alaska leaning bill demanded a roll call.
I mW tins call the motion to adjourn waa
li st and the leasing bill was then defeated,
15i to X.
The bill had been called up tinder a sus-
pension of the rulea and would have re
uulr'd a two-thirds vote for adoption
The bill provides for the leasing of coal
lands not to exceed i.9 acres on a royalty
basis of from S lo 10 cents a ton. The de
bate had been surcharged with acrimony.
