KELLY AND HIS CAMPAIGN
Against Loud Have Been Taken Up for
Investigation by the Civil Service
Commissioners.

Washington, Nov. 25.-The United
States civil service commission has
started an investigation into the rela-
tiOns of ]. c. Kelly, president of the
National Association of Letter Carriers,
to the defeat for reelection to con-
gress of Hon. Eugene f. Loud, of Cali
fornia, chairman of the house commit
tee on poStotfice and post roads
The charge has been made that Loud
was defeated through the efforts of the
letter carriers, assisted by the rural
free delivery service employees, and
that the efforts of the carriers toward
the defeat of Loud We're made because
the California representative opposed
an increase in pay for the letter car
riers and the men sengaged in the
rural free delivery service.
The civil service commissioner has
asked the postoffice department to fur
niSh to the commission a copy of all
of the correspondence that passed be-
tween the department and Kelly in
relation to the campaign of Loud for
reelection to congress. Copies of this
correspondence have been sent to the
civil service commission.

NOT THE ONLY PEBBLES
Girls of a Nebraska Town Hit Very Hard
Combine of the Young
Men.

Wahoo, Neb., Nov. 25.-War is being
waged here between the young men
and the young women of the town.
The trouble was started month ago
when the young men formed club
and pledged themselves not to take
the young women to theater or to any
place where an admission was charged.
Admission free" was the motto of this
new society, and it met with huge
success for two weeks. During that
period the young men sat on one side
of the theater and the young women
on the other, frowning but defiant.
Then the young women formed so
ciety and adopted advertising as the
method by which the young men of
Wahoo should be vanquished. The
committee had 1000 neat little circu-
lars printed stating the conditions of
affairs in the place, and each girl
mailed three or four to her friends in
the neighboring towns. The Sunday
following there was an army of strange
faces in Wahoo. Many a Wahoo young
man felt sorry and wanted to declare
peace.

MERCHANTS TO.PUBLISH
A NEW RATING BOOK

The Rock Island Retail Merchants
association last evening decided to
award the contract for the printing
of $50 rating books to John f. Din
dinger, his bid being the lowest of
those offered. This is the second edi-
tion of the book. and there will be so
more printed than there were before.
About twenty of these will be used in
exchanging with other cities in the
state that have rating books, and the
others will all be taken by local mer-
chants. who are coming more and
more to realize the value of having an
accurate basis upon which to judge
the ability of their customers to meet
their obligations. The new book will
contain about forty more pages than
the old one. large number of addi-
tional ratings having been secured.
The hour of meeting was changed
by the association from o'clock to
1880 p. IN. in order to meet the con-
venience of members.

ORGAN SPLITS A CHURCH
Results in the Withdrawal of College
President from the Church Which
He Organized.

Lexington Ky, Nov. 25.-The with
drawal of Rev. James w. McGarvey,
president of the Bible college, of KEN
tucky university, from the Broadway
Christian church became final Sunday
when that church, by vote of 361 to
202, adopted the organ for use in wor-
ship. He opposed it on Scriptural
grounds. being noted throughout the
denomination for his utterances
against it.
For thirty years the church which he
organized, and of which he was first
pastor and always an elder, observed
his wish; but weeks ago those favor
ing instrumental music demanded
vote. President McGarvey immediate
ly demanded a letter transferring his
membership to another church where
there is no organ. conditional on the
vote. So McGarvey goes. and num-
Der of his friends will follow him.

ROCK ISLAND HAS REROUTED
KANSAS CITY-ST. LOUIS LINE

The Rock Island system has re-
routed its Kansas City-St. Louis line
between Windsor, Mo-, and Kansas
City. The new survey, which was yes
terday officially approved, leaves War
rensburg 13 miles to the north, cuts
off three big tunnels, including the
1,3OO-foot bore at Chapel Hill, one of
TOO feet at Devils HOgback and anO-
ther of 1000 feet at Blue cut, near In
dependence.
The new line takes in Chilhowee,
Holden, Strasburg, Pleasant Hill,
Lees Summit, Raytown, and, leaving
independence three miles to the
south, enters Kansas City on a line
which parallels the Atoms tracks
from the Big Blue river. The Kansas
City Suburban Belt railway tracks
will be used into Kansas City.
The survey has been completed and
within a week 1000 teams and many
men will be engaged in the construc-
ton of the grades which will give
Kansas City Il shorter line to st.
Louis.

LEAGUED AGAINST PROFANITY
Young Women Organize to Discourage
Young Men from Using "Cuss Words"
Nebraska Idea

Sioux City, Ia, Nov. 25.-An anti
profanity league has been formed at
the little town of Bertha, Neb., which
is quite unique as an organization.
The constitution provides that the
membership shall be limited to young
women and that the chief object of
the league shall be to stop the swear
ing habit among young men. The
members of the order are to discourage
attentions from any young man who
INDUCES in swearing.
Twenty-six young women have
signed the membership roll thus far.
One enthusiastic member proposed
that the members be prohibited from
speaking to young men who swear,
but this radical idea was not adopted.
The first president of the Anti-Profan-
ity League is Miss Florence Kessler,
daughter of the proprietor of n depart
ment store st Bertha. The secretary

EXPERIENCE IN THE PHILIPPINES
Gen. Sanger Says the Post Exchange Exer-
cised n wholesome Influence.

Gen. Sanger Says the Post Exchange Exer-
cised a Wholesome Influence.
With reference to the reports from
the Philippines statement has been
made public at the war department
Opitomizing the annual report of Brig
adler General Sanger, inspector gen.
eral of the division of the Philippines.
After narrating the evil effects upon
the human system of the native liquors
the statement continues: TO remedy
these conditions the post exchange, at
which light beer was sold. was eXer-
cising a wholesome influence, and Gen
eral Sanger believes that the exchange
should be again made n possibility by
removing all restrictions on the sale of
beer and light wines.
ITO the fear so often expressed by
the opponents of the canteen system
that the sale of beer would initiate. or
induce, habits of intemperance. Gen
eral Sanger showed from a careful
census of the 342 companies of troops
in the Philippine islands that in sixty
companies every enlisted man used
vinous, malt. or spirituous liquors at
date of enlistment; in $50 companies
between 80 and 100 per cent, in 5S
companies between so and 90 per cent.
in 20 companies between 30 and so per
cent, in 20 companies between GO and
20 per cent.
unfortunately quite a number of
men habitually drink to excess. and
as this number will probably increase
if the men are obliged. as now, to re-
sort TO native liquors in order TO satis-
fy what to many of them is a perfect
ly natural craving, the result will be
most deplorable. General Sanger con-
cludes with the remark that 1t is
hardly probable. in view of this in
formation, that congress will continue
the prohibition against the canteen.
when it is evident that the sale of
beer would be a precaution agsiinst
the pernicious habits above stated and
their fatal and disastrous results"

Soldiers, widows commi. Perjury.

Omaha, Nov. 2J.--It is expected that
hundreds of soldiers widows will be
indicted for perjury the coming week
in connection with the wholesale steal
ing of government lands by cattle
men. The cattle barons want the land
and they induce the widows of Union
soldiers to take up homesteads and
sell their claims to the cattle raisers.
1t sounded all right. but when it is
taken into consideration that in order
to make a filing on public lands it be-
comes necessary to make oath that
such lands are for the exclusive use of
the applicant. it then became neces-
sary for the applicant to commit per-
jury to make the filing.

POLICE HAD LOST THEIR GRIP
They Soon Recovered 1t When Palma
Walked Up the Mayor.

Greenwood had asked for protection
from the civil governor, but the au-
thorities were unable to protect pub
lie vehicles. y mob of strikers drove
the men on tie Western railroad from
the trains during the morning. The
mayor of Havana and the secretary Of
government, Dieg TamayO, had during
the past week openly sympathiZed with
the strikers. and had given orders to
the police not to use force in diSpers-
ing the crowds, and under these condi-
tions the police We're unable to cope
with the strikers.
The situation was approaching a
critical point at noon, serious disor-
ders having taken place in front of the
palace itself, in which police officer
named Maso and Il number of police
men and strikers received injuries,
when President Palma sent word to
the mayor that unless the city au-
thoritieS could preserve order and pro-
tect the railroad company the state
would intervene. The mayor then took
drastic measures, and issued an edict
prohibiting crowds from gathering in
the streets, and authorizing the chief
of police to Kill, if such action should
be necessary, to preserve order.
Frequent clashes between the strik-
ers and the police occurred in all parts
of the city. The police were obliged
to charge a mob of rioters at the
slaughter house. and several among
the Iatetr were injured. The vigorous
attitude of the police now made itself
felt and traffic on the car lines was
resumed and continued with only oc-
casionaT interruptions. Most of the in
juries sustained by the strikers were
caused by the pOlicemen's clubs.
The Central Veterans Union, head
ed by General Gomez. held a meeting
and sent word TO the labor unions that
If the disorders continued the veterans
would offer their services to President

or meat was on sale yesterday. and
