went on strike on Monday because of a
notice which required them to carefully
arrange all their work at night before
leaving. The girls claimed that they
would be compelled hereafter to pay for
the oil used on machines, also for the
breaking of any part of the machine, and
that the new instructions only meant a
reduction in their wages, which they

johnny Graham Had a Big wad of Money
for the Right Man.
CHICAGO, Feb 19-The trial of the Cronin
jury bribers was continued yesterday before
Judge Waterman. After a witness had tes-
titled to being offered money to get on the
jury and acquit the prisoners or hang
the jury, Joseph Konen, one of the inform
ers, was put on the stand. He testified that
Bailiff Hanks had asked him it he wouldn't
like to go on the Cronin jury for the $500 in
fees and 81 900 more if he should find for ac-
quittal. Konen thought he would and was
accordingly summoned. He had told his
wife that il any one gave her $1,000 she
should take it,. Hanks had proposed that.
The Man Who Dealt With Graham.
Ex-Bailiff A. L. Hanks, the next witness
told in detail of his different meetings with
Graham. Graham showed the witness a big
bundle of money, and said he wanted a man
an the Cronin jury for the defense. He
wanted him to "stick right there, acquit
them, or give them year, but disagree
ment would do as a last resort" Graham
gave Hanks list of names but as Hanks
was not sent out to summon jurors he gave
the list to Bailiff Solomon. Subsequently
Graham told the witness not to use this list
and gave him new one to give to Solomon.
johnny Had n Little List.
The last list was introduced in evidence.
All but the last of the feven names are sup
posed to be I'm Graham's handwriting, the
last being in that of Hanks, at the dictation
of Graham. Graham told the witness that
money would be forthcoming as soon as one
or two ON the list had been summoned. "The
fellows over at the Csera house block" said
Graham, "were a little short of money just
now from paying attorneys fees, but the
money would be all right"
The popularity Of this evidence, which is
probably the strongest the state has, is that

Iowa's Governor Sends tn the Senate His
Biennial Message.
DIES MONIES, Ia. Feb. l4--Governor Lar
rabee created smail-sized sensation yester-
day. He had his biennial message read in
the senate and a copy fiei in the house. The
consequence is that Everybody is warm un-
der the collar. 1t has never been the custom
to send in governors message until the leg
islature is organized. Governor Larrabee's
action is considered tantamount to declara-
ton ON his part that the legislature is ready
for business.
Views on the hallway Question.
The governor devotes great deal of space
to the railway question and declares that the
act of the last legislature regulating the
roads had been proved WISE The railways
he says, having failed to defeat the law in
the courts, raised the tariff, whereupon the
commissioners proceeded to fix state tariffs;
then the roads attempted to enjoin the COM
missioners in the federal courts, but were de-
feated there, and, he says, their reports show
that their earnings are abundant under the
new law. He proposes some amendments,
mostly in the direction of more power to the
comm .ssioners; one for the prohibition of
passes, and another for the decrecco in the
number of Sunday trains.
As to Prohibition.
On the prohibition q(>stion the governor
is as radical He says he law is a success,
and urges no compromise with the saloon; he
approves the pharmacy law, but thinks it
should be amended SO as to make 1t easier on
druggists. He declares against trusts, and
in favor of ballot reform in the direction of
woman suffrage at municipal elections, and
also the adoption Of the Australian system.
