How Senator William A. Clark. Of
Montana. came to be kept out OF his
magnificent new New York residence
by a Waterman and how he had to
leave without being able to show his
new home to a party OF friends. is a
story over which workmen about the
great palace have been chuckling. The
residence has cost 100000 already.
and before q Is finished may cost $S.-
oo0. 900 more.
Senator Clark seldom sees his new
palace though he 20. KS" all the bills.
The supervision OF the work is in the
hands of DR.. Culver. Senator Clark's
son-in-law. The last day Senator
Clark was IN the city before leaving
for Montana he invited two women
friends to 60 up and see his new house.
One of mis- friends had camera and
was anxious to take some interior
views of the palace
Senator Clark went up the steps and
was about To go in when he was
stopped by Waterman
Where you going?" demanded the
Waterman
I'm going to look over the house"
replied the senator quietly.
We'll. ! guess not" retorted the
Waterman. emphatically. And he
meant 1t. for despite all his efforts the
senator failed to identify himself and
was obliged TO retire.

Resolution For Investigation of Post
Office Frauds Gives Way to
Cuban Bill I'm Senate.

Washington, Dec. S.-When the res
oIution for the investigation of the
post office frauds came up, Mr.. Cor
man took the floor and strongly op-
posed the reference to committee Of
the resolution. He declared that the
majority should not shrink from an in
vestigation. He said there had been
positive assertions that men who had
unlawfully placed employees on the
rolls were to escape. Mr.. German said
fraud and corruption were admitted,
and communicated to the senate by the
president He said the country was
not satisfied with the investigation, nor
was the senate Those who had been
accused had said others higher up
were as guilty as they, while they
have been made scapegoats. "Let us
have all the facts" said Mr.. German,
''and see if the president will turn the
rascals out"
Mr.. Lodge, who made a motion to
refer the resolution, stated that what
Mr.. German said only further con-
vinced him that the resolution should
be referred. The investigation made
under order of the president, he be-
lieved, had brought out all the facts
There was a mass of evidence in the
department awaiting an order of the
senate for printing.
Mr.. Cullom cut short the discussion
on the resolution by insisting that the
Cuban bill had the right of way. The
resolution went over. and Mr.. Teller
began a speech in opposition to The
Cnban measure.
When the house convened Mr.. Over
street, chairman of the committee on
post offices and post roads, reported
the resolution authorizing the commit.
tee to request the postmaster-general
to furnish the committee with all pa
pers in connection with the recent in.
vestigatfon of the post Office depart
ment, and announced that the com
mittee was unanimous in recommend.

APPEARED And GAVE BOND.
Prominent Citizens Of Grand Rapids
Were Spared Humiliation.
Notified by Telephone That WAR
rants Were Out For Them and
To Appear and Give Bond.


Grand Rapids, Mich, Dec. s.-The
prominent citizens for whom war
rants were issued, Monday night on
charges in connection with the water
scandal, about which Liant K. SAILS
bury has made such startling confess
sions, were spared the humiliation of
formal arrest. Instead of placing the
warrants in the hands of officers to
serve, the officials telephoned the cor
respondents, from police headquarters
requesting them to appear. The eighth
warrant for Gerritt H. Albers, charg-
ing perjury at his trial on the charge
Of attempting to bribe Alderman Rem
Than, has been issued, and Albers
came into police headquarters and en-
tered his appearance, being permitted
to then go in search of bondsmen.
Judge Haggerty, who issued the war;
rants, announced that the Albe-s war;
rant was based on confession of Mr..
Uilke Devries, that he induced Albers
to make an offer of bribe to Alder
man Renihan as charged at the time
OF his trial by the prosecution. Albers
was acquitted at that time. Although
Judge Haggerty refused to discuss Dew
ries' confession any further, there are
reasons for believing that it reveals
much of the inside of the water deal
and will be corroborative of Salsbury's
confession.
Charles S. Burch, manager of the
Evening Press, waived examination in
ethe police court and was bound over to
the superior court for trial under ST.
900 bond. The charge against him is
conspiracy.

AN EVIL IN FOOD THE Law
SHOULD REACH.

In reference to the use Of alum bak~
ing powders Prof. Schweitzer, OF the
state University OF Missouri, says:
"The deleterious effects Of alum and
the soluble salts of alumina upon the
human system, even when used In
small quantities, are too well known
to need relating; their use in baking
powder is dangerous, and should be re"
stricted."
The effects of the continuous use OF
alum baking powders are thus summed
up in medical publication

Broken All Records.

The report of the director of the
Vicksburg section of the weather
bureau shows that November has
broken all records for drouth since
the establishment of the weather bu-
reau. The rainfall for the month
was only 2-10ths. The next lowest
November on record during the past
thirty-three years was in 1899, when
85-100ths was registered. The aver
age rainfall for November during
the past thirty-three years has been
4.26 inches. The maximum was
14-15 inches in 1880. The drouth
record was not confined to November
alone, but the record for the whole
fall was remarkable.
