(Special Telegram.) School treasurers of Iowa probably have won their fight before the legislature to retain their otflcn, but wilt be required to pay Interest on sotiool money In their possession, Which It Is be lieved will result, finally In their giving up these petty offices. The house Had under consideration, n bill to' abolish thri school treasurers as useless officials, and have tho school necretarles draw warrants on the county treasury. It has been hard fought by the treasurers who have flooded tho legisla ture with petitions against It. The house adjourned without giving time for a, vote on the measure. Practi cally every member of the legislature has said that the treasurers should be legislated out of office, but they have much political Influence. The committee on "retrenchment and re form which Is engaged In probing Into ite means by which the farmers of the state have been stirred up to fight tax reform today decided upon summoning before it a number of persons who have ben known as corporation lobbyists, as they claim to have Information that they are back of the petltldhs. It has been found that the persons who have been at work securing the petitions were In the service of the railroads and other large Internals. A committee of the house today recom mended favorably a bill to hate two election boards at each election precinct In Idwa and have one board commence the count of votes at 1 o'clock election day and by alternating the two boar at thus have the count of the vote done soon after the, close of the polls. A house com mlttea 8.U. acted, favorably on the bill .to abolish contract labor and to appropriate money for equipping an Industrial plane at each state prison. Friction Develops Among Democrats in the Senate WASHINGTON, March 8.-The break In senate democratic ranks yesterday, with tho endorsement of Benator Clarki Instead of Senator Bacon for the position of president pro tempore, had Intensified the feeling that existed among the party factions when the caucus resumed Its session today. A candidate for secretary and 'one or two minor appointive selections, w.tre then still to be made. The special com mittee named to prepare assignment!! of democrats to places on the various com mittees had not yet completed Its work: but the democratic leaders were prepared to take up generally the work of re organisation. Senator Iioke Smith's threatened resig nation yesterday from the "stealing com mltteee," because of the defeat of his colleague, Senator Bacon, was still talked 'of In senate circles as Indicating a pos sible breach between some of the more active leaders In the democratlo ranks.

DOCTORS FAILED TO RELIEVE KIDNEY MEDICINE ACCOMPLISH ED REMARKABLE RESULTS About fifteen years ago I began ailing with backache and sick headache, also nervous trouble. For about nine years I received treatment from different doc tors but did not receive any relief or benefit from their medicine. About six years ago I began using Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root and took same until I was entirely cured of my ailments. I am now well and strong and have not had to takt any medicine for the past two years. I attribute the cure of my all ments to Dr. Kilmer's 8wamp-Root, and cannot praise the same enough. I would heartily commend any person suffering with backache, sick headache or any nervous trouble caused by kidney dls ease to at once begin taking Swamp- Root, as I am positive It will effect permanent cure.

These children, and there are many ot them am left hnma. less so for as educational facilities are concerned, after leaving the smut jchools, and It Is for those children that me iireieni uoaro or Kaucatlon is plan ning a high rchool which will fit them for an Industrial, mechanical or manual vocation. I am sure when the time comes, when the Board of Education will call on you In the very near future to contribute the necessary means for the purpose, you will as willingly and cheerfully respond for the need of those children as you have done for the children of this high school. We need an Industrial, technical, me chanical, manual, vocational, or call it what you many, high school in order to make our educational system In Omaha complete. We have this beautiful academic high school, we have a high school ot commerce, and to make our system serve the Interests of the entire community, we need an Industrial high school and with your help we shall have It toko, up tho Water board bill in ordar tq get It to the house more quickly. The Water board lobby has failed to explain how this action squares with Its In sinuations that the members of tho Water board of Omaha are the only honest,' upright, moral and decent men In th entire city. While the official organ of the money spending water board lobby hns repeat edly raved about a stock yards lobby down here opposing the bill, It has pro duced no evidence that this lobby has attempted to buy up any votes or has paid any clerk to hold back the bill. This organ has not called attention to the fact that reputable citizens of Flor. encc, Dundee and South Omaha, as well as many cltlxcna of Omaha, have been hero In opposition to the measure. Tho Water board lobby has Insisted to the democrats of the houso that a vote against the bill Is a vote against munici pal ownership, when as n. matter of fact the uestlon bf municipal ownership has nothing to do with the bill. It has been told democratic members of the house by representatives of the Water board that they must line up for the bill or take a belaboring from the Water board organ, Just how much effect these threates will have coming from a paper owned by a United States senator can not be foretold. Incidentally R. B. Howell, the most persistent lobbyist ever around the legis lature, was missing from the houso yes terday. It Is possible It is about pay day up In Omaha and ho Jiad gone up to draw his. It la also passing strange that the man who Introduced the bill In the sen ate previous to the opening of the session wan drawing some 300 n month from the Water board as an employe! that another noualua county senator who Is working for the bill haa a brother-in-law who has drawn down considerable money from the board, while over in the house prac tically the only sponsor for tne mil on the Douglas county delegation, aime had a fat Job at 6 a day with the Water board. All of which goes to show that money makes the mare go. Wilson Family Attends Theater WASHINGTON, Marches".

The only decoration on the presi dential box was a shield bearing thn president's Inslgna, There was further evidence of lack of pomp. Only one secret man kept guard over the person of the president and the police guard was not Increased. The negro footmen. In the White House livery, with red, whlto and blue cockades, were tho only other attendants. in the city schools. Preliminary Contest In Ilnrtlngrton. HARTINGTON, Neb., March 8.-(Spe-clal.)

BALTIMORE, March 8.-The explosion of dynamite In 'Baltimore harbor yester day, which caused the death of forty or fifty men and tho Injury of ns many others, seriously crippled the coast dc- fenres of tho harbor, It was learned today. n many Instances tho concrete founda tions of the heavy guns In Forts Howard, Armlstead and Carroll were cracked, whllo several of the guns themselves were dumaged by falling pieces of steel from the wrecked stenmer. At Fort Armlstead tho damage' will reach several thousand dollars and at Fort Carroll $2,800- Various Investigation of the explosion will be under way today. The coroner's1 Jury of Arundel county will Impanel a Jury to begin the consideration of the cose at once. Tho Navy department at Washington, apprised of the serious dam. age to the collier Jason, about to be accepted by the department, will Inquire Into the disaster and at the same time It 8 probable an Investigation will be under taken by the Interstate Commerce com mission, which has Jurisdiction over the shipment of explosives In American waters. Because most of the crew of the destroyed steamer. Alum Chine, were sub jects of Great Britain, British consul at. Baltimore, Gilbert Frazer, also will in vestigate the explosion. Ilenl Cnuse May Never lie Known. Authorities, however, say the real cause of the disaster will never be de finitely learned, because those who could have given first hand Information are dead. The general theory Is that the coal In the vessel's bunkers was set afire by spontaneous combustion and the flames were communicated to the dynamite. Early reports of the extent of the loss of life aboard the destroyed steamer and the other vessels lying In Its Immediate vl clnlty materially differed. It Is accepted. however, that the list will total between forty and fifty dead and almost as mahy more were either dangerously or seriously Injured. It Is regarded as almost certain that al the bodies have not yet been re covered from the waters of the harbor, while others may never be recovered The financial loss was about 1250,000. In all the Catholic, churches tomorrow prayers will be offered for the repose of the souls nf those killed In the disaster and for tho recovery of the Injured. Forty-Three Injured. Up to noon today there had been no additional deaths among the Injured, but a number were reported to be In a pre carious condition. Tho hospital records show that forty-three Injured victims were taken to those Institutions. One died last night, fifteen were discharged and twenty-seven remain for treatment. The hospitals and the morgue were be sieged as on yesterday by weeping women seeking their loved ones. The 'death list hovers around fifty. Search is being made in the bay for bodies. Charles B. 'Munroe and Clarence Hall, government Inspectors, from Alio bureau of mines at Washington, arrlyed here to day. It Is understood they will begin the federal investigations. It was learned tOdy that ' twenty-five tons of dynamite remain unexplqded In one of the, cars aboard the lighter along side the Alum Chine when It exploded. The harbor authorities have placed a buoy over' the spot to warn' passing vessels of the danger lying beneath the surface of the water. 50o Package of Remarkable- Flesh Builder, Proton o, Sent free to Prove What It Will Do.
