IOWA PROBABLY. WILL STAY

Change la .Made.
IOWA CITY, la., Feb. L'S.-lSpecial.)-Praeldent
J. H. Trewtn of. tha Stat Board
of Education created excitement In the
ranks Of Iowa athletics today when he
mad th statement that if the University
of Iowa ever withdrew from the Missouri
Vatlay conference tha eltate Board of F.du
catlon would refuae any financial aid to the
department of athletics of the Institution.
This statement. If carried out, would
certainly put a quietus on any withdrawal
action on th part of local athletic au
thorities. If secret contemplation haS been
mad of withdrawal It Is thought that this
statement will keep the board from taking
any action.
Just why the president of the Iowa board
would say anything like that I being ques
tioned her, but th situation has become
nothing short of alarming now since he
itimi to think that there Is a chance ot
Iowa's leaving the central conference In
June.

BASE BALL BETTING SYNDICATE
Kentucky Organization Will Accept
Wagen of All Kindt.
LEAGUE OFFICIALS UP IN ASMS
New Scheme Attributed to Boksaak
ers whose Revenue Is t at Oft by
Aatl-ltare Track netting;
NKW YORK, Feb. 2. Circulars wer re
ceived here today fiom Kentucky ol a bet
ting syndicate which offers to accept bet
on the outcome of the approaching pennant
races In the National and American Base
Ball leagues and th American association,
and also on any club-agalnst-club series.
The clrrulnr caused some uneasiness among
base ball men here, who were quick to de
nounce the scheme, and It 1 understood
that Immediate steps will be taken by of
ficials of the leagues to check If possible
what they consider a menace to the na
tional game. Gambling has long been
tabooed in professional base ball and the
feeling seems general that If It Is brought
Into the game It will be to the detriment
of a sport that Is now clean and healthy.
Some persons attribute the new echem
to bookmakers whose revenue has been cut
off by the passage of anil-race track bet
ting laws. The syndicate announces In Its
circular that It Is willing to accept bets
of jr or over, which may be sent by ex
press, telegraph or telephone.
"Hook" as Planned.
According to the "book" It has planned, 8
to 6 is offered that New York will not finish
first In the National league race. That
the team will not finish second, 3 to 6 Is
offered and for third place 1 to 4 Is quoted.
In the American league Philadelphia Is
the favorite at t to i to win. 1 to t tot
second place and 1 to 6 for third.
In addition to bets on the pennant races
the offer Is made to lay odds on the stand
ing of the clubs In midseason. In fact,
every sort of Imaginable combination for
wagering Is offered base ball enthusiasts.
Years ago base ball came near breaking
up because of open gambling. Th layer
of odds followed the teams about th cir
cuit and openly made books In th spec
tators' stands. Flayers fell in with th
gamblers and games were thrown.
This brought the situation to a climax
and, seeing ruination of the gam faolng
them, the club owners acted hastily and
formulated stringent rules against betting
In their parks. They even went so far as
to refuse admittance to known gamblers.
Almost Immediately the situation returned
to normal and sine then base ball t)as
flourished and Is now known the world over
as one of the cleanest of the professional
sports.
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Feb. 27.-8everal hun
dreds of the circulars announcing that
"books" would be made on the results In
the National and American leagues and
the ' American association were received
here today, the packages being addressed
to sporting men, who will be asked to
distribute them.
Nono of the officials ot the local clubs
are In the city and It could not be au
thoritatively stated they would combat
a proposition to bet on base ball games.
Herrmann Mot Alarmed.
CJNC1NNATI, O.. Feb. JS.-August
Herrmann of the National Base Ball com
mission when apprised of th hotting
syndicate, organised to operate on tha
games of th National and American base
ball leagues in the, coming season, said:
"While It Is news to me, yet there is
no danger that they can ruin the national
game. While I do not car to divulge th
course the commission will take, you can
say positively that this syndicate will do
no business whatever. We can and will
stop It Immediately. -
"There Is no question but what betting
and gambling would ruin base ball. W
cannot and will not stand tor It. I be
lieve that after twenty-four hour have
elapsed you will hear very little more of
any betting syndicate."
It was learned tonight, through person
given as reference, that the syndicate is
located In Newport, Ky., and la beaded by
a Louisville, Ky., man well known on th
race tracks throughout th country.

WEIGHING OF MAIL STARTS
All Mull Passing- Tbrneah Omaha to
Be Welahert for Hundred and
Five Days.
Th quadrennial weighing of the United
Ptates mall In the third contract district
began In Omaha at 12.01 a. m. Tuesday at
th Burlington and Union stations. All
mall passing through Omaha, except that
w-hlch originates here for western points,
will he weighed. This Is because Omaha
Is on the boundary of the third and fourth
mall districts and the. weighing this year
is for mall In th third district, the terri
tory eajtt of Omaha.
The system of weighing consists simply
of placing a truckload ot mail on the scales
and taking the figures, both the railroad
weighers and the government mall cJerks
keeping a record. The price the govern
ment shall pay to have Its mall hauled the
next four years Is determined by the
amount of mall carried In the weighing
period, from Tuesday morning for the
next lOfi days.
The weighing is a costly operation for
both the government and the railroads, as
extra men have to be placed on duty fur
the 10f days. In Omaha about fifteen extra
men are used.

resolution, and Mr. Frasier for it. For
Mr. Aldrlch no announcement was made.
Later Mr. Crawford appeared on the floor
and explained that he had overslept. His
vote, he said, would have been "aye."
Senator Borah, who has led the advo

pointed In the result, was not discouraged.
On the contrary, he felt the vote plainly
Indicated the growing popularity of the

FILIBUSTER LASTS ALL NIGHT
Senate Take Recess from Right to
F.leTen O'clock.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3 -All night long
the senate struggled with th Ixirimer
case, th friends uf the Junior Illinois sena
tor seeking to break down the determina
unless Important concessions were made to
them In relation to Important measures of
pending legislation. At 8:09 o'clock this
morning a recess was taken until 11
Hon of his opponents hot to permit a vote
O'clock, nnd it was announced that there
was a chance for an agreement.
The basis of the proponed agreement is
understood that a vote will be taken on
the Lorlmer case at a fixed hour Thurs
day", and that at a later hour the same
day a vote will be had on the- permanent
tariff board bill; that the amendment to
th postofflce appropriation bill proposing
an Increase of the postal rates on the ad
vertising sections of magazines will be
eliminated, and that still other concession
will be mad.
At one time It was suggested that an
agreement might be reached by a division
which would par mil a vote on Canadian
reciprocity agreement, with a pledge in ad
vance that enough members pledged to
Vote for the commercial pact would absent
themselves and encompass Its defeat.
. The purpose of this suggestion was to
avoid an extraordinary session If possible.
It Is not believed, however, that there will
be any trade by which the Canadian
reciprocity agreement will be sacrificed, al
though H Is not likely that a vote can be
had in the senate on this measure.
Vice President Sherman gazed wearily
over the senate and toyed Idly with his
favorite Ivory gavel as the electric light
were turned out over the opaqua and em
blematic stained glass celling of the cham
ber today and th daylight was allowed to
stream in.
Pressed In evening clothes, which he
wore at midnight when h cam In from his
annual recaption to official Washington,
Mr. Sherman looked strangely out of place.
H had no us for the gavel, Th senate
had been In session all night and Individ
ually and collectively the members were
too tired to create any disorder.
Mr. Sherman left the chair at 7:15 to be
succeeded by .Senator Brandege of Con
necticut. Another filibuster was In progress. An
other name had been added to the list ot
long distance talkers. The lungs of Senator
Crawford et South Dakota were the mod
lum through which a vote on the Lorlmer
case had been prevented during the night
in the face of determination on the part
of Senator Lorlmer s supporters to put the
endurance ot his opponents to a test,
ttuoruns Maintained All Night.
Mor members were kept In the senate
chamber throughout th night than on any
occasion within the recollection of the most
experienced legislator present. Again and
ataln there were roll calls to develop
whether there was a quorum and not once
did tl. attendance fall below sixty-six,
which I twenty more than a majority of
th aenate membership. Among those who
were there during the greater part of the
time wer Senators Isaac Stephenson cf
Wisconsin, the eldest of all; Oalllnger,
Perkins, Bulkeley and other of th vet
erans.
Whenever the bells were sounded, for a
roll call scenes were depleted not unlike
those in city parks at dawn following long,
sultry summer nights. Th bell in -.he
senate chamber was like the rap of a
policeman's baton signalling th sleeper
that It was time to turn out.
Every one ot tb leather settee waa oc
cupied by a sleeper. This condition not
only existed In th cloak rooms and In th
marble room, but around th walls of th
chamber. As th senators names were
called they would pile off th Improvised
beds and take their places until their
names wer reached. Then there would be
scrambles for places, for there were not
ccuches enough for all.
Leaders Hold Conferences.
There wer In th chamber men who
sought no rest. They were the men who
were seeking some outlet from the tang!d
situation, som agreement by which a
vote could be taken on th Lorlmer case,
and other measures, such as th perma

nent tariff board bill, which entered Into
the confusion and was partly responsible
for the refusal ot a ot on the question
of the Junior Illinois senator's Hunt to re
tain his seat.
In this group were Senators Burrows.
Crane. Smoot and Carter, republicans, and
Bailey. I'aynter and a few other demo
crats from smong those who favor the
exoneration of Mr. Lorlmer. in addition
there were a number of Insurgent repub
licans and democrats who ar opposed to
Mr. Lorlmer and would not consent to a
vote unless concessions were made by,
which votes on a number of other matters
could be assured. The latter group In
cluded Senators La Folette. Cummins,
Borah and Clapp. republicans, and Sen
ators Owen and Stone, democrats.
All night long these negotiations were
pending. Several times there were move
ments on the floor which led to reports
that a settlement was near, but always
something Interfered.
Hale Ntarta Trouble.
The filibuster actually began wnen Sena
tor Hale failed at 5:.'X) yesterday afternoon
to get an agreement to take a rwess until
8 o'clock for the purpose of transacting
regular business. Mr. Bailey sought an
agreement then for a vote on the Lorlmer
rase. Mr. Cuinmlns wanted coupled with
the motion an agreement to vote on the
tariff boaid bill.
The two senators proved unyielding
Even If they had dime together there wa
no assurance that some other senator
would not have objected. Mr. Bailey an
nounced then that there was no recourse
except to enter upon an endurance test.
Speeches were made by a number of
senators on the subjects of reciprocity and
popular election of senators. Senator
Bourne of Oregon bitterly assailed Presi
dent Taft because of alleged use of federal
patronage to coerce members of congress
and finally Senator Crawford at 10.1ft p. rn..
took the floor to speak In opposition to
Senator Lorlmer.
He held the floor until 6 IS this morning,
exactly eight hours. He appeared good for
another eight hours, but to conserve his
strength for another attack. If necessary,
he surrendered the floor to Senator Brls
tow, who demonstrated during the tariff
fight that he was capable of speaking at
length.
Bailey Scorn Point.
One advantage was gained In the early
night by the Lorlmer forces. Insurgent
republicans had left the chamber for a
conference and only the democratic op
ponents of Senator Lorlmer were on guard.
In a moment after a lull, Mr. Bailey, with
out ostentation, addressed the chair and
moved that when a vote was taken it be
by yeas and noes.
Senator Brandegee was In the chair and
ho lost no time in submitting the motion
and It was adopted before there was a
chanc to protest. Senators Stone and Owen
Immediately appealed without avail. The
Bailey motion had been adopted and the
effect was to remove the last vestige of
red ,tape In the parliamentary procedure
that would stand in the way of a vote
If the opponents of Lorlmer can at any
time be caught napping.
This advance was accomplished in the
senate by friends of Senator Lorlmer Just
before Mr. Crawford took the floor.
The maneuver of Senator Bailey may
prove an Important factor In th case If no
agreement Is reached to vote on the case
prior to the expiration of the congress at
noon Saturday. The proceeding . was the
invention, of Senator Aldricb. He used.lt
first when Senator La Folle'tte and Stone
were filibustering against a , vote on the
emergency currency law.
The sharp parliamentary practice ot last
night waa not strange to Senator Stone,
therefore, which fact did not tend to smooth
over his opposition to a voto on the Lorl
mer case. He appeared chagrined and
angry at having been caught twice on the
same game.
At 6 o'clock this morning there were ex
cellent prospects of an agreement to vote
not only on the Lorlmer case, but the tariff
board bill. All the opposing forces ap
peared to be ready to coma to an agree
ment. Senator Crawford still held the fort
and he was told that relict was In sight.
Senator Stone Balks.
All the senators had become greatly
fatigued by the lc-ng session and there were
signs of happiness at the chanc of getting
together. The plan was to vote on Thurs
day on the Lorlmer case and tha tariff
board bill, the vote on the first named sub
ject to be taken at 3 p. m., and on the lat
ter subject at 5 p. in.
Every senator agreed to the u,. mention
except Senator Stone and no one could
move him. Still smarting because of hav
ing been outwitted earlier In the night,' he
would not be conciliated. One after an
other, Senators Owen, Carter, Smith of
Michigan, Jeff Davis, Smith of Maryland,
Crane, Penrose and Culberson pleaded with
him, but without avail.
After Mr. Crawford had continued for
some time', Mr. Bailey at 6:66 a. m. sug
gested an adjournment. He referred to the
fact that there was a special order which
th senate had agreed to vote upon follow
ing th reading of the Journal of today's
session. That order was the resolution
respecting popular election of senators.
Mr. Bailey pointed out unless the senate
adjourned the session must continue as '-he
legislative day of yesterday and it would
not b possible to consider the special
order under the unanimous consent agree
ment. He said nothing about any arrange
ment fur votes on any of the pending ques
tions. iinestlon by Crawford.
"When am I to hav opportunity to con
tluds my remarks?" asked Mr. Crawford.
Th question angered Mr. Bailey.
Something waa whispered to Mr. Craw
ford about negotiations looking to a settle
ment of the contest. Mr. Crawford replied
rather testily that he had had no part In
the negotiations as h had been confined to
the floor and knew nothing of what waa
transpiring.
That ended for a long peiiud any atteii.pt
to reach a compromise. Mr. Brlstow
talked on, making little effort to interest
his audience. In fact he spent so much
time reading from the congressional record
that Senator Chamberlain suggested that
th Kansas senator could Improve his time
by reading the bible.
Finally at 7.30 o'clock Mr. Chamberlain
protested against the procedure. There
wer several calls for a quorum and each
time a majority of the senate assembled,
although the attendance was not so large
as It had been throughout. the night.
At 7:40 o'clock Mr. Bailey triad to hav

the senate recess until 11:10 o'clock. He
said that In that time he thought It would
be possible to reach some agreement for
voto to determine If some arrangement
could nut be made so that an extraordinary
session would not be necessary
senators tccnac-d of hlrl.lnu.
Theie folowed a great desl of discussion,
during which Mr. Chamberlsin expressed
the opinion that the night's filibuster had
been "child's play." and that the senators
were shirking their duty as JudKes of the
riualiflcatlons of a member under charges
nnd as a member of the highest delibera
tive body In respect to legislation
Responding, S!r Tatl.y nald tl.at after
he thought It would be a long time before
he engaged In another filibuster. He as
serted that he never would obstruct legisla
tion again unless he felt that the Interests
of his constltutents were vitally at stake.
At this point Senator Stone stated that
he would f?rVt object to a recess as pro
posed, but that he felt assured the sena
tors would come back at the appointed
hour to find that no progress had been
made.
Senator Chamberlain renewed his appeal
for an Immediate vote on the Lorlmer reso
lution, that to be folowed by a vote on the
tariff board bill. The country, he said,
demunded that the senate go about Hh
Important business.
Borah Maya I'labt Is tlr.
Senator Borah, who hns been In charge of
the resolution for the election of senators
by direct vote, was gratified over the re
sult, notwithstanding he lacked four votes
of getting the requisite two-thirds.
"When It Is demonstrated." lm suld, "Ihut
the senate stands within four of two
thirds. It is certain the real fluht Is over.
"The resolution will be again introduced
at the first session of congress, regular or
extraordinary, and urged unremittingly.
The next congress, In my judgment, will
pass favorably on th resolution."
With this vol out of the way the senate
proceeded with the usual morning business.
That the feeling among tha senators w
not the best, however, was shown when
Senator Burkett of Nebraska objected to
the consideration of two house bills called
up by Senator Clarke of Arkansas. Mr.
Clarke clearly was angered by this action,
having stated that the bills could be dis
posed of !n two ihlnutes. Mr. Hurkett In.
sisted on his objection.
"The senator from Nebraska always ob
jects when we have a chance to proceed."
remarked Mr. Clarke, "nnd 1 mav add that
he is rapidly wiping out what l.ttle rtlssatis
faction there was in his state as to what
happened last fall.'1 ...
Lorlmer Heads Telegrams.
Senator Lorlmer now arose unexpectedly
and the entire senate was at attention,
while those in the galleries craned their
necks. He presented telegrams In substan
tiation of his assertion that Governor
Deneen had undertaken to organize the Illi
nois legislature In 1901).
Mr. Burkett here snld, that ho had nothing
personal In, view when he objected to the
consideration of the hills called up by the
senator from Arkansas and was sorry he
had taken it In that spirit. He said ho
objected for the purpose, If possib'e, of get
tine an hour for the consideration of hills
called for. He withdrew his objection.
"In that event," said Mr. Clarke, "I am
sorry for what I said."
The morning business disposed of, Sena,
tor Stone, took the -floor to speak on the
Lorlmer case. He registered a strong pro
test against the action of Senator Bran
degee in the chair last night In putting
to a vote the motion of Senator Banev, that
when a vote was reached on the Lorlmer
resolution, it should be taken by the ayes
and nays.
This motion was carried and has the ef
fect of cutting off a further source of de
bate when the time for taking a vote ar
rives, if It ever does arrive, before the ex
piration of the present congress.
Mr. Stone declared that he and several
other senators were on their feet clamor
ing for recognition, in spite of this, the
chair put the motion, and later when a
