less about tho indexing and arrange

work necessary to be done in compiling

n statement made by Mr.. Gilbert Hol-

"The Rise and Progress Of the Stand

In order TO gather data from one OIL
cial report alonc-the Hepburn report
made in 1879 By a committee Of the
New York legislature - Mr.. Montague
was obliged to read over 5000 pages Of
closely printed questions and answers
which make up the eviSence taken by
this committee. In several instances
Mr.. Montague was obliged to index
hundreds Of pages Of report before
he could digest the evidence, counter
evidence and refutatlon scattered
throughout the examinations OF wit

the road and the suburban railway
track. He turned his horses up this
track and when about three hundred
feet on this side of the Pitcher curve
turned his horses directly across the
track. The tongue of the wagon struck

horses and wagon from goirgfarther.
Eastman then laid down on the front
of the wagon and went to sleep.
A car soon rounded the carve and
ran into the two horses, killing them
almost instantly. The car was derailed
but no one was seriously injured. The
wagon had been dumped from the
track and had not the tongue struck
the pole and stopped the horses the
wagon would have been directly on the

Eastman from being killed outright.
Word was brought to the city of the

their destination. No blame III attached

Snecial to Times Republican.
Davenport, Sept. 1.-The state con-
ference of the Iowa Daughters of the
American Revolution will be held IN
Davenport Tuesday and Wednesday,,
October and z. The details of the
conference have not yet ben fully ar
ranged, but Mrs. Marie Purdy Peck OIL
Davenport, state regent OF the iowa u.
A. r., is in receipts of letter from
Mrs Charles w. Fairbanks, president
general of the national organization
graciously accepting her invitation TO-
be present at the conference. Mrs.
Fairbanks is the wife of Senator Fair
banks of Indiana and has long
been prominent in national AFFAIRS
of the organization, now serv-
ing her second term as its chief Off
Ger. She Will be the guest of Mrs.
Peck during her stay in the city and
it is expected that she will address
the convention on Continental Hall"
in which the Daughters throughout
the country are so deeply interested.
The Iowa D. A. r is composed of
twenty five chapters, each of which
will be entitled to representation OF
the regent and one delegat at this
conference, and company OF from
forty to fifty representative women OF
the state are expected to assemble IN
Davenport on that occasion. No def
mite arrangements have yet been
completed as to the place of holding
the business meetings of the confer
ence, but the Outing club is being ser
iously considered as the place best
adapted for the sessions. An informal
reception for the honored guest is
among the probabilities and those in
charge hope that an opportunity can
be arranged whereby the citizens of
Davenport may have the pleasure Of
meeting Mrs. Fairbanks.
Mrs ]. p Dolliver, wife of Senator
Dolliver regent of the Fort Dodge
chapter is among the prominent state
women expected to take part in the

of Storm Lake. stated last evening that
ne did not know when the conference
OF the delegation would take place to

district No call has yet been issued
by any one for meeting, so far as he
was aware, and he had received no in

has given it out that he will not sit
any more in court. or 1t is SO reported,
and Judge Mcpherson will hold the
next term of court at Cedar Rapids.

his acceptance of the position by re-
fusing to be longer considered as can

congressman who will have a hand IN
the settlement OF the question are Alh-
