AURORA, HI. Nov, St The blood
beaked part of an undergarment, which,
with a school book and a revolver, both
spattered with blood, was found here yes
terday In a car of lumber consigned from
South Bend, Wuh., was not a girl's
clothing1, but belonged to a -woman, Cap
tain of Police Wire said today. In the
school book, a German grammar, the
name of Elsie Halba Day of Bprlngfteld,
Ore., Teas written.
The first theory of the police was that
the child owner of the book might )iave
been lured or dragged into the car and
attacked and slain. Closer examination of
the garment convinced . the authorities
that It was a part of a- woman's drees,
rather than that of a girl, and the be-
, Met was further confirmed today by
word from Dcs Moines, la., that Miss
Day was visiting- there and was allvo and
.well.
Miss Day is 17 years old, according to
word the twllce received today, while
the garment wjilch they have found
was evidently worn by a woman eonsld-
'erably above the avarasa"ln height and

are closed and he can simply drift until
Monday morning, when Industrial activ

"I found the city of Omaha spending
thousands of dollars for the entertain
ment and amusement of visitors to the
annual convention of a great fraternal
organization. While Its stores and
blocks and public buildings had been
piacea on areas paraae wnn gauay aec-
oratlons, and while the glad hand of
hospitality was stretched out to these
guests from thousands of Its citizens.
there was no welcome for the honest
laborer who might happen to be home
less and penniless within Its gates, and
no provision for him but the filthy floor
of the huge steel cages beneath the
crumbling plastered walls of the city
jail.
Finds Conditions Bad.
"I walked down the darker streets In
the lower part of the city where the
out-of-work are forced to gather. In
Boston I thought I had never seen such
a gathering of human misery as I found
on Boston common, but nowhere have
I found that condition so evident In a
smaller way than In Omaha.
"Approaching a policeman, 1 asked for
the publlo baths, it was rny first test
to find out what our western cities were
doing to provide that great sanitary
necessity. I was told there was 'noth
ing doing,' and the pollcernon glanced
significantly at the 'Big Muddy.' I do
not know of a single public bath west
of Chicago except in Denver,

time the Young Men's Christian asso

sisting those needing help, and which is

tributors and Its Income enhanced In

DUS MOINES, Nov, 23. Every saloon

Within an hour after the supreme

o'clock practically every one of the nine
ty-odd saloons In town had closed Its

In some of the principal bars, proprie

In others "final drinks" were permitted
before tho "lid" went on. In many In

Earlier In the day formal demand' for

, Trim Salvation Arniy.
"I then sought the Salvation Army, My
answer. there was to the effect that If
they gave fellows like me free beds they
would be overrun every night,
"Next I went to the Union Gospel mis
slon on Douglas street. The door to the
lodging house upstairs was locked. Down-
stairs a gospel meeting was being, held.
I waited until the meeting was concluded.
The dormitory was not open, there wero
bright lights there and people were going
to their beds. 1 approached the at
tendant, who was closing the door, and
asked him If he would give me a bed.
He kept right on closing the door In ray
face, meanwhile saying that he wished
that he had a free bed himself; that he
slept In the street when he hadn't 'the
price.'
Then the Volunteers.
"I then applied to the members of the
Volunteers of America. They could do
nothing for me, as they had no lodging
house, but thought 1 might find shelter
at the City mission. I went there and
found the placed locked and dark. It
was a reception about as cordial as that
which I received once at Genoa, where
I went to visit the birthplace of Co
lumbus. After standing on tiptoe reach
ing up and ringing the bell of that curi
ous house for about five minutes a bar
ber stepped out of the house next door
und said In a mixture of Italian and
broken English; 'Eh, Mlestro Colombo,
eh not-a-to-home. No ring-a-de bell so
daran-a loud. Mlestro Colombo, eh dead,

"Later, with two or throe other 'down-and-outs,'
I lay down on the grass in
Jefferson park. Very soon a policeman
came along and drove us out 'Ho many
limes nave 1 got 10 ten you fellows to
get out of here? Now, get out of here!'
"A short time afterward I met another
policeman and asked him where I could
get a free bed. telling him I was broke.
He looked at me 'rather savagely and
said: 'Vou can't get nothing like that In
this town-' Then he added: "You might
go to the city jail, but It Is chock full

CHICAGO, Nov. at One prosperous
independent' telephone company was rep
resented . today by, a witnesa for the
government in the' hearing' here , In tlia
government s ant! trust suit against tne
American Telephone and Telegraph com
pany. Edwin D. Sohade, , general . man
ager of the Johnstown, Pa., telephone
company and a vice president of the
Independent Telephone association tes
tified .that h)s company, had forced the
Bell sytem to the wall in his territory.
Mr. rBohade said that he had urged, a
few: persons, Including one pf his own
directors to subsoribe for - Bell service.
In order not to have the "trust" busi
ness reduced so far that It would be
driven out of the western 'Pennsylvania
field altogether.
Unfair Competition Alleged.
"Tho telephone rate between Johnstown
and. Pittsburgh Is 40 cents for three
minutes," said Mr. Schade. Between Mo
Connollsburgh and Pittsburgh, ' over
which the Bell lines have no competition,
the rate, he sold. Is $1.45 for three, min
utes. The distance he said was about
seventy-flva miles In each case. Mr.
Schade complained' of "destructive com
petition" by the Boll system, charging
thai the "trust" offered free rervice on
some local lines and had reduced toll
service to ''almost nothing." He was
cross examined by E. 8. Plllsbury of
Ban Francisco representing the Bell sys
tem. "Your company . geta about a year
more from each subscriber than the Bell
does. Your rates ore higher than Bell
rates. You hajve 7,778 subscribers where
the Bell has only 1,100 in your territory.
You pay a 13 per cent dividend . and
have a large sinking fund and first
class equipment. In other words you
are In a highly prosperous condition,"
said Mr. Plllsbury.
"We are." replied Mr. Schade.
"Then what do you complain ofj"
Independent 3Vot on Market.
"We object to unfair competition,"
said Mr. Schade. He said that his com
pany was operated more profitably I
than the American Telegraph and Tele

business which made its operating ex

German Budget
Nearly Billion
BERLIN, Nov. a The Increasing Im
portance of Germany's relations with
Latin America la indicated by a provision
In the imperial budget of 1914, raising to
the rank of full legations the minister
residencies now' created to Guatemala,
Venezuela and Peru.
A German consulate Is established at
Panama, and the consulate at Montreal
Is raised to a consulate general.
Borne other, striking points In the pre
liminary summary accompanying the
budget bill are: Tho increase In the an
nual subsidy for German schools abroad
from 1100,080 to $375,000; an appropriation
for the Olymplq games to be held In
Berlin in 191; ah appropriation for the
German exhibit at the Baltio exposition
in Walmoe, Sweden, in 1914 which Is con
sidered more worthy of support than the
Panama-Pacific exposition at San Fran
cisco in 1815.
No mention la made In the estimates
of an appropriation for a German em
bassy building at Washington.
Germany, apparently. Is about to
abandon Its subsidy to the North German
Lloyd steamship Hnes, running to the
Orient and Australasia, as the estimates
of 1761,000 covers only the six months Un
til the expiration of the present contract
The estimated 'revenue and expenditure
for Wli balance at 131S.2CO.000, which com
pares with 1963,500.000 In 1918.
To the army and navy are assigned
$304,ISO000 and 118,000,000 respectively,
making together almost half the year's
total expenditure, Only two new capital
ships for the navy are provided.

vjaeu eanxing committee, submitting a
report from the administration deaie
crats Chairman Owen gave notice he
would open debate Monday. Their bllt
follows closely tho line ef tho heusta
measure and contains only such amend
ments as President Wilson waa wtlUac
to accept.
Senator Hltohcook, democrat, and the
five republicans submitted a draft ma
terially changing the bill and proposing
four reserve banks owned by the pufeMe
and controlled by the government
Both sections of the committee agreed
on concentration of reserves, their vol
ume and mobilisation, the volume of the
capital of the proposed banks, promotion
of an open discount market, provision
for-elastic currency, the Isauance of fed.
eral reserve notes, that the federal notes
should be obligations of the United States,
that the system should be a regional
federal reserve bank system, instead of
a central bank and on th control of the
system Itself by the government.
The report of the administration demo
crats reviewing the difference In tlve com
mittee concluded:
"These differences arise In the main bs
cause of two schools of thought on part
of the committee believing in a central
bank administered by a central board
and the other part of the committee pro
posing to establish a number of com
paratively Independent district banks ad
ministered by boards of directors chosen
from the several districts.
Report by nttcbeooV,
The report submitted by Senator Hitch
cock declared many amendments it re
commended had been endorsed in the en
tire committee before the administration
and antl-admlnlstratlon forces separated
and added that Its signers were gener
ally In favor of a government owned
central bank.
"Waiving a strong preference which
prevailed In committee in favor of a
single government bank with branches,"
said the report, "we accepted the re
gional bank plan as the only hopeful
outlook for action by this congress, but
retained the amendment substituting four
Vegtonal banks for twelve. While the
single government bank plan would pro
duce the only perfect mobilization of re
serves, as has been demonstrated by the
experience of other countries, the adop
tion of four regional banks under a single
control will, it Is thought approximate
this result, and in a country so large as
purs with so many banks, probably prove
efficient."
Senator Hitchcock will speak following
Senator Owen. 1
The presentation of the divided report
today placed before the senata without
amendment the bill as It passed . the
house. The amendments recommended
by the two wings of the committee will
be taken up tn the debate.
The bill was made the unfinished busi
ness of the senate on motion of Chair
man Owen, who announced he would
make no effort to begin its detailed con
sideration or to secure a vote on any
amendments before the end of the spe
cial session.
