A cablegram received at the State
Department from Caracas states that
the American and Venezuelan Claims
Commission has delivered an award
of $57 900 in the Rudolf claim. The
department's advices indicate that
nearly all of the international claims
commissions have wound up their
work at Caracas, the American Com
mission having only two cases to con-
slider. Advices from The Hague indi-
cate that the decision of the tribunal
will not be long withheld, for nearly
all the powers party to the proceed
ings there already have submitted
their arguments through counsel and
their cases are almost ready for con-
! sideration.

judicial proceeding. to be determined
by the laws and the constitution of the

FOOTBALL PLAYERS RUSH.
Dashed Into a Crowd and injured ssv-
eraI Spectators.

A sensational accident in the Iowa
Grinnell football game at Grinnell
last month resulted in severe injuries
to four spectators. one man suffering
broken leg. Jones of Iowa, one OF the
heavy players of the team, in an end
run, in which he was going at full
speed, ran too close to the lines OF
spectators, and, lodging one OF the
Grinnell men, plunged head-foremost
into the crowd.
Jones dove into the spectators like
a battering-ram, head down, while e
dozen men fell under the impact. and
others, carried of their feet, swayed
and fell back on the struggling men
Panic followed. and several more peo-
pie were injured in trying to break
through the ranks behind them and
get away. When the panic subsided
and the injured people were assisted to
their feet Jones was found at the bot
tom of the mass, unconscious and seri-
ously hurt. 1t was some time before he
could be revived. One of tho specta-
tors had his leg broken and several
others had sprains and fractures.

Humane Society Agent Tuft has
made a charge that the method of kill
ing cattle used by Wolf Heller. butch
er at the packing houses in Denver, is
cruel. Heller kills cattle for the use
of members of the Jewish faith. Tuft
swore out warrant in the County
Court for the arrest of Heller on the
charge of cruelty to animals. In dis
cussing the arrest Rabbi Friedman of
Temple Emanuel said that the charges
were absurd. He went on to add: 1T
may be that the butchers are doing all
that he says, but if they are doing 1t
it is in direct violation of the. Jewish
law. But | don't believe any cruelty
has been practiced. Under this law.
no manned. wounded or lacerated ami
mai is fit for food. If animals are in
jured they are unclean to an orthodox
Jew Animals are supposed to be killed
instantly without even. the slightest
suffering, and if even one organ is in
jured in the killing they are unfit for
food / hardly think any Jew would
object to having such a thing investi-
gated to the bottom
