ter the report Of the industrial commits

The judiciary committees Of both
houses nave before them general bills
proposing constitutional amendments to
give congress power over corporations.
The best lawyers seem to be of the Opin-
ion that nothing can be done without a
constitutional amendment and 1T is prob
b that some for of amendment with
be recommended.
Chairman Ray, of the house judiciary
committee. said he thought hts commit
tee would report some Measure after the
committee h studied the testimony
taken by the industrial commission.
Chairman HOar, of the Senate judi
ciary committee. declined to anticipate
the probable action of this committee on
this subject and said no definite conclu-
sion a been reached.
Senator Aldrich, chairman of the COM
mittee on finance, says that of the trusts
are destructive and d~emoralizing to
public interest The republican party is as
ready n anxious and equally as well
qualified as the democrats to correct such
abuses as may exist. Senator Cullom,
chairman of the committee on interstate
and foreign m agrees with Mr..
Ald1dch and SO do Messrs. Dodge, SpoOner
and Elkins. three of the leading political

A Detective Has a Fight
With Train Robbers.
ONE OF THEM WOUNDED
But the Rest Of the Gang Got Away

Track of the Men Who Escaped
Many Crimes Confessed.

Holden, Mo-, Jan. 29.-John Jackson,c q
detective for the Missouri. Kansas & Tex
as railway, from Sedalia, vas stet
through the head by an unknown nah
here early this morning. Yesterday Sur
p~erntendent Hardy of the Missouri Pa
cific railway learned that an attempt
would be made to rob the express car on
the eastbound Missouri Pacific train No.

secret service officer Of the Missouri Pa
cifc railway, and left here on a special
train for Warrensburg, where the sheriff
and special officers were taken aboard.
When the train reached Holden the off,
GERS were informed that the suspected
men were at a resort, and it was decided
to arrest them then, as it was believed
enough evidence had been secured to
bring about their conviction. The n1nr-
shall of the town, another officer and
Jackson started to make the arrest, say
inc they did not need assistance. Jack
son entered the house. One Of the men
fired n a ball passed through Jackson's
head, just over the right eye. The Of
ficer returned the bandits shot, but ne
and his companions, of whom there were
six, escaped. Later one Of them, badly
wounded, was captured.
Jackson, who was taken to the hospital
at Sedalia, cannot recover. The arrest
ed robber said that his name was Shores
and confessed numerous robberies. He
admitted having held up the Missouri Pa

Says He Was DOped When
He Fought J%effrieS.
CLAIM THAT HE MAKES
He Had No Recollection of ANYTHING
After Taking a Drink of Mineral
Water Between the Second and
Third Rounds.

New York. Jan. 3O.-Robert Fitzsim-
non now proclaims that he was drug
Eed when he was whipped by James JEFF
fries for h championship of the world
at Coney Island last June.
In an interview last night Fitzsimmons
said: ut is impossible for me to point
TO the man who was responsible for my
condition on the night of June 9, when I
fought Jeffries. but this I do know, and 1
say 1t with emphasis and with full
knowledge Of the consequences, I was
drugged by some n and it Is only nat
ural to suppose that there was a con-
spiracy arranged to accomplish my de-
feat. went into the ring in good condi-
ton. I was fit to fight and did fight
to my entire satisfaction for two rounds
In the second, it will be remembered,
! was knocked down. That blow did not
hurt me and, in fact. would not have
even staggered me had it not caught me
just at a moment when I was resting far
back on my heels. I came up not the
least dazed and was feeling as good as
new when I went to my corner.
During the rest of the second and the
third rounds / took a drink of mineral
water and. following that. Il had only a
hazy recollection of one or two incidents
of the fight.
Just how l got through the third round
/ cannot tell, but when I went to my
corner it struck me as a very good joke
that l was there. fighting before a great
crowd with a man I did not know. I
asked Julian what it was all about and
Who I was fighting with. They tell me
Lat when he said 'Jeffrles' l expressed
my surprise and said that 1 had no rea-
son for fighting him. But OF all that
! remember nothing.
Then, again, in the tenth round, in a
hay way, remember Julian saying
Stand up Fitz.' I stood up, wondering
what 1t was all about and what particu-
lar reason Julian had for wanting me to
stand up at that time. The next day I
was physically as we'll as I was before
I went into the fight. My upper lip was
a trihe puffed but aside from tina / was
unhurt. But my mind was almost a
months. This condition gradually wore
away n little by little I regained my
former strength of mind.
Finally, when the affirs of the night
began to become tangible l made an in
curry and ! believe I discovered just how
the drug was administered. I provided
for my use during the fight a lot of min
eral water in bottles. AS the gas was
likely to distress me, I told Julian to
uncork the bottles and let them stand
for some time SO that the gas might es-
cape. He told me that he had done this,
that he had given the water to Clark
Ball. who took them in the box office.
We're backing Jeffries entered the room.
One of them engaged Ball in conversa-
ton. I am convinced that the drug was
given to me in that water"

The Baseball Situation.

New York, Jan. 3O.-The Times says:
The club owners of the National League
and American Association of baseball
clubs are much interested in the meeting
of the prospective new American assoc
citation, which is scheduled to be held In
Philadelphia today. If the association
is successfully launched and McGraw
and Robinson assume the management
of the rival clubs in Baltimore it will
aid the National league in reducing the
circuit to eight clubs.
AS the affairs Of the National league
now stand, the Baltimore club is the only
obstacle to prevent the adoption of an
eight club circuit. The circuit commit
tee of the major league considers the
determination of nearly all the players of
the Baltimore club to desert the Ma
tional league for the new association a
point in it's favor.
1t practically leaves the Baltimore club
without a team. and as the new combine
in Baltimore has secured the ball
grounds, the Baltimore club is without
assets n has practically nothing to Of
fer for the money consideration asked
some time 6 to drop out of the league.
The league was ready to pay a reason
players and franchise, despite the de-
malls Of several club owners that such
a plan had been arranged.
The management Of the New Yorks
claim that the chances for a circuit of
eight clubs this season are very favor-
able. The club shows that the circuit at
present has already been reduced to nine
clubs, Cleveland and Louisville having
been disposed of n Baltimore being
without a team or grounds.
The Baltimore Brooklyn combine is not
at all worried over the situation appar-
emily. 1t is probably awaiting the result
Of today's meeting and believes, as many
other club owners do, that the new as
ISOLATION is a myth, as up to the pres
ent time there has not been enough
pledged to organize a single club and it
requires a vast amount of capital ia or
ganize a rival league and secure the ma
tional leagues players by offering better
salaries.

Washington. Jan. 30.-The Hawaiian
bill has been practically completed by the
house committee on territories and
Chairman Knox with a subcommittee is
preparing a draft of the revised bill with

changes have been made in the measure.
The chief OF these is the striking out

eliminates the supervision given to the

omission of the property qualifications

2 Torture an Old Man.

Dayton. Ohio. Jan. 3O.-Masked robbers
entered the home of Cassius Barry, a re-
cldse hear Farmersville, IL miles south OF
Dayton, at an early hour this morning.
They demanded his money, and upon his
refusal resorted to various means of tor
ture. burning the old mans hands with
hot irons. AS soon as Barry refused to
divulge the hiding place of his fortune,
which he is supposed to possess, n of
the robbers, who removed his disguise,
Started a fire and heated the irons. The
vetim was obdurate and fatty refused to
tee where his money was secreted.
Barry cried aloud in his agony, and at
tempts were made to stifle his cries.
Failing in this, the robbers fled, after
making a thorough search of the house
and securing 50 in change. The men
secured the neighborhood and stole two
rigs" One Of these was recovered near
the north gate of the Soldiers Home. in
this city, by the police, while the other
was located at Liberty, where it had been
abandoned. A search for the robbers was
made in Dayton, but no arrest followed.
1t is believed they have gone to Rich
mond, Ind.
The men were middle-aged and heavy
set, but the victim cannot give accurate
descriptions. Barry is IS years of age
and has lived as a hermit for several
years. He has received a liberal pension
from the government, and it is the gen.
eral belief in Farmersville and the sur
rounding country that he has bidder
away a large sum of money. The robbers
went about their work coolly, mi the
fact that they removed their masks at in
tervals showed their boldness and tendds
to dispel the belief that they were local
men. At first the robbers were desperate
and threatened Barry's life. Doubtless
but for his incessant moaning the intru-
ders would have completed a successful
task, but they became fearful that his
cries would attract assistance.
