STUDENTS IN REVOLT.
Iowa University's Unpopular Teacher
Must Be Dismissed.

Iowa City. Sept. 2S-Dr. Lawrence w.
Littig may remain in the medical depart
ment of the state university as professor,
but if he does he will have no pupils to
lecture to. In fact, he has no more now
than he can count on the fingers of one
hand.
1t is an old fight between the medical
students and an unpopular teacher. 1t
began last spring when the junior stu
dents handed in a petition to the board Of
regents of the university asking for the
removal of DR.. Littig. This petition was
signed by twenty of the class, and pre-
duct against the doctor In this petition
the students set forth three instances Of
improper conduct:
1. A dog entered the lecture room and
caused great merlin emit Dr. Litttg quoted
the lines of the poet that the more he saw

dogs.
2. The parents of one Of the patients
under DR.. Littig's care in the hospital be-
came dissatisfied with the mode of treat
ment and removed their child to another
hospital
3. At one time in the clinic DR.. Littig
used improper words in speaking of a lady
patient.

The loan Woman Traveler.

The new woman doesn't propose to
miss the delights of travel simply for
lack of protector. She knows how to
take care of herself, and when she starts
off on a little journey nowadays it isn't
with the nervous dread that some
things going to happen before she
reaches her destinatfon-f ever she
does, but she proceeds at once to make
herself comfortable and to thoroughly
enjoy her little rub up against the out
side world.
But although she rests secure in a
delightful feeling of safety, it has never
occurred to the general woman that
making her to travel in safety Is a
business all in itself.
She may have heard, for example,
that the great New York Central Rail-
road is the only route in the United
States that is completely equipped with
the world-famOus lock and block syS-
tenn Of signals, but that doesn't mean
anything to her until you explain that
by this system every foot over which
she travels is carefully and unceasing
ly watched and signaled day and night.
that collision is practically impossible
because a train cannot enter a given
block or section until the train ahead has
passed out, and that even il there
should be another train following On
the same track the engineer knows all
about it through the electric telegraph.
which is part of the system, thus MAX
ing assurance douhly sure.
If the lone woman happens to be go
ing to New York City she need have no
dread of landing alone in the confusion
of big, strange place if she travels by
the New York Central. All she has to
do is to speak to one of the red-capped
attendants-free service-who will car
~ her bag, answer her questions and
show her to cab, car, or elevated train.
Another thing, she lands right in the
heart of the city within a step of doz-
en- or more of it's leading hotels-and
she should bear in mind that this is the
only railroad depot in all New York
City.
The New York Central might aptly

HEROES OF GUANTANAMO.
The Marines are Reviewed by Presi-
dent Mckinley.

Washington, Sept. 23.-The president
today reviewed from the pOrticO of the
White House a. detachment of about 200
members Of the marine corps which
served at Guantanamo during the war
The marines had just arrived and they
marched to the executive mansion,
headed by the Marine band.
The president stood with barred head,
as the brOnzed heroes marched past,
bowling his head, waving his hat and
clapping his hands in turn. He seemed
much affected by the appearance of the
men who had demeaned themselves so
nObly during their trying days at the
front, where they constituted the only
American force on Spanish soil. As
sistant Secretary Allen and the chiefs
of the various divisions of the navy de-
partment participated with the presi-
dent in the review, and among them
many remarks were heard compliment
tary to the military bearing of the ma
rines, despite the evident wear and tear
to which their clothing as well as them
selves had been subjected.

Illinois Attorney General Is At
ter Guilty Corporations.
10000 DeIinquents Are Found
in Chicago Alone.
EVADING NEWLAW
Corporations Fail to Furnish
Secretary of State
Replies to Questions Pertaining
to Business Methods.

Springfield, Ill, Sept. 2S.-Attorney
General Akin is preparing to swamp the
courts of Illinois with proceedings
against violators of the antitrust law.
over 20, 900 corporations have, by their
neglect to comply with one Of the pro-
visions of this law, been placed in a
position where they have become sub
jects for legal attack and the attorney
general is about to move on them.
Failure to make affidavit that they
are not interested in trusts or other IL
legal combinations is the particular
charge against the multitude of corpor-
ations. According to the terms of the
statute this failure puts the charters Of
the offending corporations in jeopardy
and also subjects them to a penalty OF
$50 for each day of delay in making the
required affidaVits.
The statute under which the attor-
ney general is to proceed is an amend
ment to the general antitrust law and
was passed in 1898. It provides that the
secretary of state shall require an af-
hdavit from each corporation in the
state which shall state in effect, that
the corporation is not concerned in any
combination or trust such as are pro-
hibited by the antitrust statute.
Requests for these affidaYits are to be
sent out about the first Of each Septem-
Der and the failure of any company to
answer is to be reported to the attor-
ney general. He may either proceed to
pany's charter Cancelled, as he may Sc
lect.
A large number of suits to be filed
indicates the general disregard in which
the law has been held. Since the pas
sage Of the measure no attempt has
been made to enforce its provisions and
the companies that have filed afhdavits
have done so voluntarily on receipt of
the formal notice from the secretary of
states Office. These include only
small proportion of the Incorporated
companies of Illinois. About 200 COM
panies made the necessary affidavits,
but declined to pay the filing fee of 81,
and these are to be proceeded against
with those that made no report.
Secretary of State Rose has filed the
list of delinquent corporations with the
attorney general and that officer is clas-
styling them into counties. The Cook
county list is almost complete and it
includes between 1000 and 10, 900 names.
The first suits to be filed will probably
be commenced in that county by the
attorney general. He will probably
send the other lists to the various
states attorneys of the state with in
structions for them to proceed in his

SCHOOL ENDED SUDDENLY.
Teacher and His Alleged Second Wife
Arrested on a Serious Charge

Tuscola, Ill, Sept. 23.-John P. Knight
has been teacher in the village schools
in this vicinity for three years. His
wife has also been teaching near here,
and both moved in good circles, enjoy
ing much popularity. A considerable
sensation was created today by the ar
rival here of a well dressed wo-
man from Charleston, Ill, who claimed
to be the only legal wife of Knight, fur
Their alleging that he had a family Of
four children.
After viewing the situation here, she
had warrants issued for Knight and his
alleged second wife, and the service of
these suddenly terminated the exercises
in the respective schools in which the
man and woman were engaged, to the
surprise of pupils and the prostration of
the two teachers, who were placed I'M
der bonds of $500, which they had failed
to provide this afternoon.
The woman claiming to be wife No
says she has been living at Charleston
for two years, being visited perhaps
once a month by Knight, who explained
that his business kept him travelling the
rest of the time. All the parties form
erly lived at Tiffin, Ohio, and it is said
alleged wife No. 2, who was Miss Ber-
tina NJ. Leitner, was a former friend of
the woman who came from Charleston
and livened matters up here today.

ITMAY a MURDER.
Missouri Coroner's Investigation VIII
Probably Be Reviewed.

st. Louis, Sept. 23.-A murder mystery
that may be more deep than that Of
Bridgeport or Dover is vexing the citi-
zens of Herculaneum, Mo. The body
of a man, fashionably dressed, was ta-
ken from the Mississippi river last Fri
day. 1t was supposed to be the body
of a, man drowned and the cOroner's ju-
ry returned a verdict of death from
drowning and then the body was bur
led by the county. Events since the
burial go to show the man was muir
dered. He was about % years old, Of
medium build, and was dressed in dark
pants and coat, silk vest and his linen
and undertaking were of the finest.
while several articles of jeWelry were
found in his pockets.
Investigation proves that there was a
hole in the back of his head, as from a
bullet, and aside from this the skull
was crushed. When the body was I'M
dressed in the search for Identification
marks it was found that blood had
soaked into the clothing and there was
also blood in the lungs. Blood was
still flowing from the wound in the head
that it had not been in the water long.
The coroner explained that he did not
think that an investigation was neces-
Sary, but now admits that there were
many suspicious circumstances that
point to murder. The jurors simply
glanced at the body.
In all prada ability it will be disinterred
and an effort made at it's Identification.
The place where the body was found IS
All marks had been removed so far as
known, and all but the blank leaves had
been torn from a small memorandum
book found in the pocket.
