Congress-.


An extended speech on the pending
Philippine tariff bill was delivered in the
Senate Friday by Mr.. Morgan of Ala
bama, who devoted particular attention
to an amendment he offered to the bill the
previous week. He maintained that the
enactment of the bill as it stands now
would not be a constitutional remedy for
the situation the measure is designed to
relieve, but said with the adoption OF his
amendment the bill would stand the clos
est scrutiny of the courts. The Alabama
Senator did not discuss the political
phases of the Philippine question. devot-
ing his entire speech to a consideration
Of the legal and constitutional questions
raised by the presentation of the tariff
measure. An hour and half was de-
voted to consideration of n bill to in
crease the salaries of judges of United
States courts, but no action was taken.
The House prepared to defend itself
AGAINST what it considers the thrca tened
invasion Of the Senate of its prerogative
in the matter of revenue legislation by
directing the ways and means committee
TO investigate the subject and report to
tho House its conclusions. The action
was the outgrowth Of the agitation in the
Senate of the claim that reciprocity
treaties affecting the customs revenues
can be negotiated without the concur
renee Of the House.

The House on Saturday, after the
transaction of some minor business,
which included the passage of the Sen
ate bill to prohibit the sale of firearms
opium and Intoxicating liquors in the New
Hebrides. devoted the day to eulogles on
the life and public services of the late
Representative Brosius of pennsylvania.
Debate commenced Monday upon the
bill reported by the majority of the com
mittee on agriculture to impose tax Oh
10 cents a pound upon olcomargarlhc'
colored in imitation of butter. ana proYld-
ing other regulations. The opposition to
the bill is based broadly upon the grounds
that it is intended to injure Legitimate
industry, and prohibits manufacturers
from presenting goods to the trade IN the
form which is demanded by the consum-
ers Another spirited debate, with the
Philippine tariff bill as the text, was pre-
cipitated in the Senate as the result OF
some statements made by Mr.. CarmacE
Dem., TENN in the course of an extend
cd speech on the general Philippine ques-
ton. At the conclusion Of his address
Mr.. Beveridge QndD challenged some Of
his statements The debate which en-
sued was very lively for a few minutes,
taking on political phase which proved
particularly interesting to the auditors,

The official appointment of Miss An
ma Healion as reporter for Judge G. w.
Burnham, will be made Jan. l, effective
from that date. Miss Healion has been
acting as substitute reporter during the
October term of court, and has proved
so competent that Judge Burnham Is

tie woman, extremely popular socially,
and her many Marshalltown friends
will be happy to know that her APP
pointment is Forthcoming. For several
years she has been in the employ Of
Britain & Co, and when the illness of
Miss Agnes McKinnon, of Cedar Rap
ids, became so serious that it was sur
missed she would not be able to continue
her work for Judge Burnham, Miss
Healion asked the privilege of attempt
ing the duties. She went to work with
a will, took evidence for practice during
the September term, and was substitute
ed this term. Her work has been high
" satisfactory in every particular, both
to the court and the attorneys. and
many compliments have resulted from
the manner in which she has looked
after the hard and painstaking work.

again be able to resume the work, and
Miss Healion will succeed her perma-
peptiy

Makepeace Case Again Con-
tinued Because Jury Can
Not Agree
STOOD EIGHT FOR CONVICTION
Case Hurried Thru and Session of Court
Held Tuesday Night, When Evidence
Was Concluded-Much Interest Man
tested by the Bar in the Trial-The
Defense's Claim.

Judge Burnham called in the jury in
Makepeace, an attorney of this city, at
o'clock this afternoon. The jury in
formed the court that it could not agree,
and his honor dismissed the members
from further service in the case. The
jury stood eight for conviction and four
for acquittal, and as there were positive
men on both sides it would have been
impossible to secure a verdict.
Makepeace is charged with receiving
stolen property. The alleged crime was
committed on Feb. 10, 1892, when Mrs.
Georgia Mason. a client of Makepeace,
was arrested for larceny of wearing ap-
parel from the store of Bannatyne &
Lay. Mrs. Mason was convicted of pet
it larceny, served a Jail sentence and
was later sentenced by Judge Durham
to term in the penitentiary for adul-
terry, Mrs. Mason Is now serving her
sentence, and was brought to the city
from Anamosa on an order from the
court to act as a witness for the state.
The case was begun Tuesday after
noon shortly a1Ier D u CiOCh, tiitl d uuSc
Burnham announced that he wanted it
hurried thru in order that the jury
could be excused in time to reach their
homes for Thanksgiving. Accordingly
a night session was held, lasting until
9 o'clock, when all of the evidence was
concluded. The arguments began a
half hour earlier this morning, at $3.50,
and the jury retired an hour later.
Mr. Makepeace's defense was that he
did not know the goods Mrs. Mason had
him remove from her apartments on
North First street were stolen. Mrs.
Mason testified that she told him they
were stolen, and wanted them secreted
In order that the officers, whom she felt
sure would search her rooms, would
not find them. Tie goods We're taken
from the First street apartments and
removed to Makepeace's home, where
they We're recovered Feb. 81. Make
peace was later arrested for concealing
stolen property, bound over to the
grand jury an dindlcted. His first trial
was at the April term, when the jury
also disagreed.
The Makepeace jury wal composed
of Joe Brande. w. j. Hockridge, Will
liam Lackey, Eli Lane. o. Cunningham,
w. C. Merryman, Mark Bovee, Frank
A. Beckwith. II. c. Holsclaw, A. d.

into the business of the concern is

valuable at this time.

as possible. 1t is a mammoth business,
however, and it isn't everybody who is

will come out WELL

Marshalltown One of the First
Cities in State in Amount
of Produce Handled
$4,000 POUNDS EACH WEEK
This Made Possible by System Employ
ed by Branch Houses of Big Packing
Concerns That Gather to This City
Almost All of the Poultry and Pro-
duce Available.

There are probably but few residents
of Marshalltown who realize the extent
to which this city has risen as a pro-
duce center in the past few years.
There are, also but few, who have any
idea of the endless flocks of fowls
Of all kinds, colors and sizes that are
every week being brought to this city.
Each bird is in the course Of few
days after it arrival plucked, killed
and wrapped each in it's paper Jacket
boxed, slowed in refrigerator cars and
shipped to the eastern markets, where
they are consigned to all parts Of the
country. Many do not even stop there,
but are transported to England and
Europe. Many is the Marshall county
fowl, which has grown up on a farm
near this city, and in a few short weeks
has graced the board Of some fashion
able Londoner or resident of the Euro
pean continent.
1t is estimated by men who are in
position to know that there is received
the poultry season, in the neighborhood
of $4,000 pounds of poultry that are
later killed, dressed and shipped to
eastern markets. This amount in
pounds represents several thousand
birds, and would make a large flock
were they all turned loose at one time
Marshalltown has become of no mean
consequence as produce center, and by
far the larger portion of the poultry,
butter and eggs produced within ra-
dius of fifty miles of this city in every
direction is gathered here. The poul-
try season is at it's height now, and
lasts until February, when the butter
and egg season begins which continues
from February to August. This ire
mendous and constant influx, and out
going of poultry and produce, has been
made possible by the far reaching pow
er of the two branch houses of Armour
& Co. and Swift & Co. that have, with
in the last few years, been located In
this city. Both of these houses pay
the highest market prices for produce
and thru their system of branch houses,
called feeders" and buyers who tour
the country in wagons purchasing
fowls, an almost endless flock is con-
tinually headed in the direction of this
city. The method of these houses is
peculiar, in that 1T is far reaching,
and is figuratively speaking, composed
of many fingered arms that sweep the
county and wiring the necks of every
available fowl that can be purchased
for the prevailing market price. While
the receipts this year, in pounds, do not
x.,it cf haEy acffI
enormous, and go to prove that Mar
shalltown is one of the leading pro
duce centers of the state.
