GEN AFTER VALENTINE.
Used Allowance to Pay Two Clerks
and Senate Will Investigate

A bill was introduced by Senator AL
len this afternoon making an approprla-
ton of $3.50 salary due from the state
to Miss Grace F'oulks a clerk in the Of
fee of D. A. Valentine. clerk of the su-
preme court Mr. Allen asked that an
emergency be declared and that the bill
be placed on third reading. This caused
objections on the part of some Of the
senators and brought out Miss Foulks
side of the story.
she stated in letter to the senate
that she had been employed in D. A.
Valentines office since November, 1892,
at $50 per month and that she had been
compelled by Mr.. Valentine to give half
Of her salary each month to Miss Alta
Dennis, another clerk employed in the
office. She did this at first because she
understood that the employment Of the
other clerk was temporary, but it. has
continued up to the present time.
The bill was placed on q third read
ing and argument followed.
Senator Householder said that he
wanted to see the young lady get her
money and that he did not believe in an
officer OF the supreme court making
clerk on a small salary divide her hard
earned money with another clerk. IF he
needs extra help of this kind he could
pay it himself said the senator.
Senator Branine said that if the bill
was passed it would lead to other apprO
priations being asked and it would pro-
badly develop other cases even more
fragrant
The bill was lost by vote of IA to
IL
Senator Allen then introduced a reso-
luton stating that there seemed to be
some error in the clerkship in the clerk
of the supreme courts Office and asked
that a committee be appointed to in
vestigate.
The committee was appointed consist
ing Of Senators Allen, Householder and
Fulton.
Mr.. Valentine said today that he hod
employed an extra clerk beca use it was
necessary to handle the business of the
Office, and that as there was no more
money allowed to conduct the business
he simply divided the money between
Miss Foullxs and Miss Dennis He said
that he thought Miss Foulks understood
the matter and that he had explained it
to her when she first went to work in
the office.

there is absolutely no necessity for call

more add that they do not propose un-

1t is probable in the event of a con-
ference being held that the league will
consent to abolish the farming plan, as
the American league has done. and will
agree not to transfer players arbitrarily.
There Is no reason to believe that any
alteration of Consequence will be made

cities tenaciously cling, as 1t permits
them to retain an equality of playing
strength as compared with the large
