Mr.. Coles Report.

Topeka, Dec. 23.-In his biennial re-
port, made public, State Auditor George
E. Cole makes many important recon-
mendations, which, if followed, he
says, will improve the public service
immensely and save the state thousands
of dollars. The report advocates the
wholesale consolidation of state boards,
but it strikes a popular chord with
GOvernor-elect Bailey, and from an in
ide source it is said he will incorporate
most of Coles recommendations in his
message to the legislature.
The auditor recommends that the
board of charities be reduced from five
to three members, and that the mem
bers be compelled to pay their own ex-
penses while out on trips instead of
eating and sleeping at the different in
situations. 1.-The members are paid
1000 a year each for salary and ex-
penses," said he, land there is no rea-
son why they should be fed and roomed
at public expense"

TO ENFORCE SHERMAN LAW
House Votes Appropriation Of Half
a Million.
DRAWN BY HEPBURN, OF IOWA

Washington, Dec. 22.-Mr. Bartlett,
Georgia Democrat, during considera-
ton of the legislative appropriation bill
in the house unexpectedly and without
warning sprang an amendment to APP
propriate $3.50. 900 to enforce the Sher-
man antitrust law, and to direct the
encouragement to proceed to the pro-
secution of all violators of the law. AL
though such provision was plainly
amenable to a point of order, not
a member on either side of the house
raised an objection. Both sides wheeled
into line, and all agreed that some
such action was advisable. Some of
the Republicans, however, raised objec-
ton to the looseness of the language of
the amendment and Mr.. Hepburn. of
Iowa, offered substitute which was
adopted. 1t is as follows:
'.That for the enforcement of the
provisions of the act of July 3, 1890, the
sum of $5OO,OOO is hereby appropriated
out of any money in the treasury not
heretofore appropriated to be expended

general in the employment of special

that no person shall be prosecuted or

matter or thing concerning which he
may testify or produce evidence, docu-

secution or punishment for perjury
