MAYOR AMES is INDICTED
Grand Jury Makes Serious Charge
Against Chief Executive of
Minneapolis.

MINNEAPOLIS, July 9.-The grand jury
has returned indictments charging A. A.
Ames. mayor of the city; Fred w. Ames,
superintendent Of police. and Joseph (Reddy)
Cohen with accepting bribes.
The charges are based on the alleged
collection of tribute from abandoned women,
in which II is charged that Cohen acted
for the mayor and chief.
When Mayor Ames was arraigned in
court this afternoon on two indictments,
each charging that he received SIS for
protection on certain dates named from
the keeper OF a house of ill-repute, his
attorney denounced the charge as "Infa-
nous and trivial" and demanded imme-
date trial. He urged this further on the
ground that it was for the public in
terest that the charge against the
chief executive oficer of the city should be
settled at once. Judge Harrison said that
the court was no respecter OF persons and
that the case must take its turn with the
others. He set the case for trial July a.
and added the bail at $1,000, which was
promptly furnished.
Neither Chief Ames nor Cohen was ar
Taigned. The latter has not been found and
is said to be out Of the city.

LIEUTENANT HICKMAN NEXT
Must stand Court Martial Trial for
Alleged Cruelty TO Tayabas
Natives.

MANILA July 9.-General Chaffee has
ordered Lieutenant Edward A. Hickman Of
the First cavalry to Manila for trial by
court-martial on the charge Of alleged
cruelty TO natives Of Tayabas province.
The charges arise from the Gardener In
quiry. II is claimed that Hickman ducked
two natives In stream in order to obtain
information. He is further charged with
having ducked a third natl who died
from maltreatment. The m nfficials
say that proof OF the latter IN is
doubtful. ~,
The court presided over by Gener. ",
liam H. Bisbee, which is trying CAP II
James A. Ryan Of the Fifteenth cavah.
on the charge OF unnecessary severity to
natives, will try Lieutenant Hickman.
The defense in the Ryan court-martial
closed today. The arguments will be
heard Saturday. The defense offered much
testimony and many documents to show
that a state of insurrection existed at
Jiminez, Mindanao, and that Captain Ryan
was justified in using force to obtain in
formation, protect his command and pur-
sue the enemy.
It was shown that the two natives who
were treated" communicated with the
enemy, giving information regarding the
Americans supplies.
Second Lieutenant Charles Burnett of
the Fifteenth cavalry and Surgeon Major
Peter r. Egan testified that they took the
same treatment as administered to the
natives and that they did not suffer there
from.

BEATRICE CALLS FOR HELP
Disastrous Fire Raging and Flood
Renders WaterwOrks PrRc-
tlcally Useless.

BEATRICE, Neb., July 1o.-Cspecial Tel
egram)-The most disastrous fire in the
history OF Beatrice broke out here this
morning shortly after o'clock. The FIRE
started in the Green block and is sup
posed to be Of incendiary origin.
Owing to the fact that the water supply
here was shut of last evening the fremen
were perfectly helpless and unable to cope
with the flames. The FIRE spread rapidly
to the large department store of the Klein
Mercantile company. The city is at the
absolute mercy of the flames on account of
no fire protection.
The FIRE is still raging and there is no
telling what the result will be, although 1t
is hoped the fire can be confined to these
two buildings. The mayor has telegraphed
to Lincoln and Nebraska City for fre-fght-
ing apparatus, as there is no telling where
the confagration will end.

PRICE STILL REMAINS HIGH
Little Change I'm Corn and the Ex.
pected Does Not Happen on
Board of Trade.

CHICAGO, July 9.-Developments in the
corn deal today were the failure of at least
two expectations. One was that the bot
tom would drop out Of the market because
OF the reported settlements with outstand-
ing shorts, which would mean the abandon
ment OF the deal by the bull traders, and
the other that the screws would be given
a turn by the Harris Gates people and the
price forced still higher. Neither hap
pened and the price moved quietly along
within a range OF 2 cents, fuctuating be-
tween So and Ss cents. and closing at the
lowest point OF the day. cent lower than
Tuesday.
Not over 100 bushels Of the cornered
grain was traded in during the session.
The big ones, and these may be covered
in a general way under the title OF the
elevator interests" are still out. There
are apparently only two places where they
can cover. One seemingly is in the corn
pit on change and the other the private
one Of Harris, Gates & Co. The size OF
the transactions show that they have not
bought openly, while member Of the Har-
ris-Gates Arm insists that he knows moth
ing OF any private settlement.

CATHOLICS IN SESSION
Fourth Annual Association of Col
IeEes opens Conference
in Chicago.

CHICAGO, July 9.--The fourth annual
conference Of the Association Of Catholic
Colleges opened here today, Representa-
tives Of colleges and parochial schools in
all parts of the country are in attendance.
Rev. John w. Poland of st. Xavier S
college. Cincinnati, in a paper on the sub
ject OF Principles Of Pedagogy in Colleg-
late Work" criticised various educational
methods. He said: "Kindergartenism is
beginning to infect the teachings Of col
leges and universities. 1t has a tendency
to lower the mental and moral powers
of children and unfit them for the future
and the reason for this is not merely be :
cause the kindergarten is a day nursery
under another name, but because children
are trained to have their own way in
everything and to have all things made
easy for them"
Dr. Poland also denounced what he
termed "the craze for athletics" and de-
plored the conditions that could give rise
to hazing in the higher educational insti-
tutions. 80
After the conclusion OF the paper a gen.
eral discussion was called for by Bishop
Conaty, who presided, but the priests pres
ent were slow to respond. Some of them
said they agreed with the speakers opin-
ion, but a number said that they did not
care to discuss the reflections on athletics.
Bishop Conaty delivered an address,
telling OF the progress made during the
last year in the United States by the as

SERIOUS FLOODS IN IOWA
Practically All Streams in Central and
Western Part Out Of Banks.
DAMAGE TO PROPERTY HARD TO ESTIMATE
People in LowIyinG Sections of Des
Moines, Fort Dodge and Many
other Places Compelled
to Move.

The heavy rains Of Tuesday and Tuesday
night falling upon ground already thor
oughly soaked, caused the rivers and creeks
of Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas to overflow,
doing immense damage to property.
In Iowa the worst OF the floods are in
the central northern and northwestern
portions, extending south as far as the
line Of the Rock Island railroad. In Des
Moines, Fort Dodge, Marshalltown and nu-
merous other towns people have been COM
PEELED to abandon homes in the lowlands.
Railroads have suffered to the extent OF
several hundred thousands Of dollars and
traffic In the section mentioned is either
abandoned or badly delayed.
In Nebraska the most serious damage, so
far as cities are concerned, was at Lin
coin, where Salt creek overfowed its banks
and flooded the railroad yards and the Sec
tion In which most of the Wholesale and
manufacturing Industries are located Many
of the poorer people of the city also lived
In this section and they we're driven from
their homes abandoning everything in
their houses. In the southeastern part Of
the state practically all the streams are
out of their banks, the Blue and Nemaha
doing the most damage. Beatrice, Au-
burn. Tecumseh and other towns along
these streams are sufferers. Railroad
tracks have been washed out and trains in
many instances abandoned.
The amount Of damage done to crops In
the flooded lands along the streams will
depend largely upon how soon the waters
subside. II they remain under water long
the loss will be total, but IL no more rain
comes a large portion, particularly corn,
will be saved.

BRISK DEMAND FOR MONEY
Movement Begins Earlier Than Usual
and Interest Rates Advance
in Chicago.

CHICAGO, July 9.-Widespread interest is
beginning to attach to the unusual demand
for money in the central west and west.
Within a fortnight interest rates have ad-
vanced 1 per cent.
Chicago began shipping money to the
northwest and west about July 1, at the
rate OF $500, 900 daily. 1t is estimated that
about $4,000 900 in currency has been sent
out OF Chicago to St. Paul, Minneapolis
and st. Louis.
These shipments have started a demand
by Chicago banks on New York. The move
ment from that direction has continued as
1t was begun.
The demand from the west was fully two
months ahead Of the season when, ordi-
narily, crop moving requirements occasion
money shipments. No special explanation
has been offered. Northwestern and west
ern institutions merely report that the
small banks throughout the country are
asking for funds and have to be accommo-
dated.

MITCHELL STILL CONFIDENT
Believes that Miners Are Sure 20 win
Their Demands In Present
Strike.


wILKESBARRE, Pa, July e.-In an ad-
dress today before the 400 delegates of
district No. 1, in convention at Nanticoke
President Mitchell Of the Mine Workers
union said he had never participated in a
strike in which he was so confident OF sue
cess. This statement by the miners chief
was greeted with great applause. The ma
tional president severely criticised the citi-
liens alliance organizations which have
been formed in Scranton and wilkesbarre
for the purpose Of prosecuting persons who
boycott or otherwise intimidate men still
working in the mines or their relatives.
In the course OF his speech Mr.. Mitchell
said:
The coal operators have organized a
press bureau and are constantly sending
,,in,,t out through II what purport to be inter
views with and statements from them,
while as matter of fact there Is not n
president in the entire region who will
stand responsible for any of the statements.
The operators have also orRanized an
other adjunct, under the name of the
Citizen's alliance. l am sure l do not know
now many citizens are members of this
mysterious organization, as so far only
one has had the manhood or the effronterv
TO acknowledge his membership. |. of
course, hesitate to criticise men for doing
anything they have a legal right to do. but
when an organization of the citizens of any
community is formed, the alleged purpose
order, and when Il develops that the entire
energies of the organization are being d.
rected against the coal strikers, it arouses 5
suspicion-to say the least-in my mind,
that the name of the association is a mis-
nomer and the alleged purpose cloak
under which so-called citizens have Joined
forces with coal operators In a damnable
attempt to crush the miners union.
In all my experience in the labor move
In which l felt so confident of success If
our membership will stand, as I know they
will. we shall, in the not far distant fu-
ture, achieve victory and settle for all
time the right of the coal miners to receive
for honest labor and unremitting toll at
least a sufficient wage to enable them %
live, maintain and educate their families
and enjoy a few of the pleasures OF our
