Ice In India.

DR., Wells, a London physician, in
1918, in his published essay ON dew.
was the first TO draw attention to the
curious artificial production OF Ice in
India. Shallow pits are dug, which
are partially filled with perfectly dry
straw, On the straw broad, fat pans
containing wafer are exposed TO the
clear sky. The water, being a power
full radiant, sends off its heat abun-
dainty into space.
The heat thus lost cannot be re-
placed from the earth, for this source
is excluded by the straw. Before sun
rise a cake OF Ice is formed in each
vessel. To produce this ice in guam
titles clear nights are advantageous.
and particularly those on which prac-
tGcally no dew falls. Should the straw
get wet it becomes more matted and
compact and consequently a better
conductor Of heat, for the vapor then
acts as a screen over the pans, checks
the cold and retards freezing.

INDIAN BILL
OCCUPIES TINE
Senators Spend Major Part
of Day in Arguing on Ap-
preparation for Red Men
DISCUSS MERIT SYSTEM
German Holds to Opinion
That Civil Service Should
Not Be Treated Piecemeal

WASHINGTON. March %. - The
Senate again spent the greater part OF
the day considering the Indian ap-
preparation bill. Three hours OF time
was given TO discussion OF claim OF
$4,000 for services rendered the
Choctaw Indians. II finally was elimi-
, mated from the Indian bill. The civil
service debate was renewed and there
was a discussion OF the policy TO De
pursued in securing employees for WorA
on the Panama Canal
The old controversy over ChoctaW
Indian leases was revived by motion
by Kesn TO amend the committee
amendment for the payment of $4,000
out Of the Choctaw funds TO J. H.
Sypher for services rendered the In
dians in connection with the leases.
Plstt supported the claim as valid, but
in reviewing its origin said that
$500, coo had been paid 10 lobbyists in
connection with this claim. Several
Senators spoke on the merits of Spyh-
er's claim, AL agreeing that his ser
vices 10 the Indians had been that Of
an attorney and entirely legal and
legitimate. On motion OF Patterson
the amount TO be paid TO Sypher was
reduced TO $4,000. and the amend
ment as thus modified, after three
hours OF debate, was defeated by a
vote OF % 10 25-
The provision exempting farmers at
Indian agencies from the requirement
50 fr-2 frr
was reverted TO and the general civil
service discussed. German reiterated
his opinion that the civil service regu-
latiOns should not be legislated upon
piecemeal and said that inasmuch as
the President has entire control Of the
matter il should be left TO him. He
quoted from the instructions OF the
President 10 the Isthmian Canal Com
mission as tending TO show that the
chief executive has receded from his
advanced position on the general ap-
plicatiOn OF the civil service principles.
No one had ever supposed originally.
he said, that the principle would be
applied 10 minor places as il had been.
HosF said the supplying Of en-
plOyes for canal work was different
thing from filling places in the eXecu-
tive departments and expressed the
opinion that places connected with
the canal should be filled on the rec
ommendauOn OF public men, regard
less OF politics. Otherwise the selec-
tiOns might be as unsatisfactory as are
those made under present systems in
vogue in filling Federal places in the
Southern States.
The amendment exempting Indian
agency farmers from the civil service
requirement was agreed 10, and, with
out concluding consideration Of the
bill. the Senate at 5:34 p m. went into
executive session and at 5:s6 p. m. ad-
jOUrned.

SCORES SAGE
OF PRINCETON
Secretary Shaw Reviews
Cleveland's Attitude as Re-
CARDS the Trust Problem
Special Dispatch to The Call.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., March 23.-Les-
ury, delivered an attack tonight upon
the policy of Grover Cleveland in rela
ton to the trusts while Cleveland was
President. The occasion was the ban
quet given by the Young Mems Repub
lican Club of this city in opening the
Rhode Island campaign in the interest
of President Roosevelt's candidacy for
the Republican nomination and also in
behalf of the candidacy of Senator Mel
son w. Aldrich for reelection. Secre-
tary Shaw said, in part:
Former President Cleveland does
not claim to have recommended any
antitrust legislation during either of
his administrations He does not
claim that any antitrust legislation
was passed during either of his ad
ministrations. He does not claim the
credit for any litigation ever instituted
to suppress any trust or combination
during either of his administrations.
He simply seeks TO explain why
nothing was done, and places the re-
sponsibility therefor upon the courts
and constitution and upon the fact that
the Northern Securities Company was
not organized during his administra-
tion.
Mr.. Cleveland was first inaugurated
President on March 4. 1885. Neither in
his inaugural address nor in any mes
sage does he mention the subject of
trusts until Immediately preceding the
election of 1885 In his last message
preceding that campaign he refers to
the existence Of combinations frequent
ly called trusts and closes with this
conclusion: The people can hardly
hope for any consideration in the op-
Grafton of these selfish schemes.
HE recommends no relief and sug-
gests no remedy. Nevertheless the Con-
gress to which this comprehensive
statement of fact was submitted and a
majority of the members of which be-
longed to his school of political thought
appointed a commission to investigate
the subject. The purpose of the COM
mission was TO convince the people that
their interests were not being neglect
ed-at least during the campaign, and
that if Mr.. Cleveland were reelected
some remedial legislation would fol-
low.
Mr.. Cleveland was not reelected,
however; but when Congress con-
vened, in paragraph of five lines he
refers to the subject of trusts, and
closes with this sad and terrifying an
nouncement: Corporations, which
should be carefully restrained creatures
of the law and servants Of the people.
are fast becoming the peoples mas
ters.' But he recommends no relief and
suggests no possible way of escape"

DEMOCRATS TO FORCE
AN INVESTIGAT ALTON

WASHINGTON, March 23.-Aggres-
sive tactics have been decided upon by
Democratic members of the Senate to
air their demands for an investigation
by Congress of the Postoffice Depart
ment. Notice to that effect was served
upon the Senate Committee on Post
offices and Post Roads to-day by the
Democratic members when the commit
tee again put off the requests of SEN
ators German and Clay that one of the
resolutions now pending in committee
looking to Congressional investigation
be reported TO the Senate. The Demo-
cratic Senators have persistently urged
that any one of the resolutions be re-
ported, but the demands have been
combated by the Republicans on the
ground that there is no necessity for
an investigation that has not been
made or that cannot be made by the
Postoffice Department.
The plan of the Democratic Senators
is now to offer new resolution calling
attention to former resolutions and to
the fact that they have been permitted
10 sleep in committee. This would
bring the entire matter before the SEN
ate.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The
House Judiciary Committee to-day con-
tinued the hearing on the anti-injunc-
ton bill Senator Matson Of Indiana
spoke in opposition to it and said the
labor unions policy was to intimidate
and coerce. He characterized Jonn
Mitchell asSthe most conservative labor
leader in this country, but said no man
ever uttered a greater untruth than
Mitchell when he declared "Once a

10 the committee the beneficial effects
Of the injunction in labor troubles in

The afternoon session of the hearing
was devoted to arguments in favor Of
the bill. H R. Fuller. representing the
Railway Trainmen's organization; An
drew Furuseth, representing the Amer
ican Seamen's Union. and President
GOmpers of the American Federation of
Labor were heard. The hearing ended
with Gompers' testimony.
Fuller declared the opponents of the
practically in favor of government by
injunction, which would abolish trial
by jury and all the rights that labor
holds sacred. If the bill was uncon-
stitutional, as its opponents have
claimed, then an amendment should be
made 10 the constitution. He criticized
Representative Hogg of Colorado for
coming before the committee and re-
citing the reign of crime in his State.
saying Mr.. Hogg should have been con-
tent to oppose the bill on the floor, and
that murder and crime were questions
entirely outside Of its scope, as the bill
legaIized neither
Furuseth reviewed the religious and
social development OF the world from
the Roman empire to the present time,
held that the product of labor was a
property right. This right had been
admitted in every injunction that had
been issued against labor, but it was
al entirely erroneous assumption.
Gompers challenged many of the
statements OF the opponents of the
measure He declared that the use of
the injunction against labor was of
comparatively recent origin and en-
tirely unjustified, and in speaking Of
the extent 10 which labor is organized
he said:
L agree that we do not represent q
majority OF the workingmen of the
country, but l venture to say that We
represent the most intelligent, the mos:
skillful and the most manly of the
workingmen Of the country, and this
too. without any reflection upon the

CHINA'S MOVE
VOIDS TREATY
Agreement Concerning Ex-
clusiOn Is Nullified by
DenunciatiOn in Peking
EXPIRES IN DECEMBER
Action of Oriental Govern
ment Exposes 1t to En-
forcement of Geary Law

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The State
Department has received formal notice
from the Chinese Government denounc-
ing the Chinese exclusion treaty. so the
present convention will expire Decem-
Der p next unless it is replaced by an
other treaty by that date Under its
terms six months before the expiration
of period of ten years from December
u, 1894, if either power be dissatisfied
with the treaty it is required to de-
nounce it, and this is the action which
China has taken in spite of the strong
est efforts to the contrary on the part
of the State Department. Had the no.
tice not been served the treaty would
have continued in force for another ten
years from December 81, 1904.
The department pointed out to the
Peking authorities through Minister
Conger that it was probable that so far
from bettering conditions relating to
the admission of Chinese into the
United States any new treaty would
fail of approval by the Senate. The
Chinese would thus be exposed in the
absence of a sheltering treaty to the
full rigor of the Geary and Heinz law,
and exclusion would be much more
complete than at present.

CODY MAKES
CRAVE CHARGE
Buffalo Bill" Says Woman
He Is Suing for Divorce
Attempted to Poison Him
TURKEY MAKES HIM ILL
Scout Says That in Lieu OF
Medicine His Wife Admin
istered a Deadly Drug

DENVER, March 23.-Colonel Will
liam F. Cody C'Bufalo Bill') made a
deposition before a notary in this city
to-day in the action for divorce which
he has brought in Big Horn County.
Wyo. Colonel Cody will sail for Eu-
rope shortly and will be absent from
the country when his suit is tried. In
the proceedings to-day Colonel Cody
was interrogated by his own attorney
and was subjected TO cross-examina-
ton by counsel for Mrs. Cody.
Mrs. Cody tried to poison me three
years ago." the colonel testified. She
had frequently threatened TO do it.
We were visiting in Rochester, n. T.,
during the holidays of 1900, and the
day after Christmas 1 was i'll. 1 sup
posed the turkey and plum pudding
did not agree with me. She said she
would fix me up and pretended to give
me medicine. 1t was poison. 1t al
most finished me, for / was uncon-
scious for some time. 1 think ii must
have been an overdose, for it made
me vomit, and I suppose this is what
saved my life
In his testimony to-day Colonel Cody
related many instances of his wife
having Inundated him at his former
home" in North Platte by her conduct
toward his guests. She drove my
friends away" ne said. When they
were no longer welcome in the hand
some residence 1 built and elaborately
furnished it was no longer my home.
The witness then went into deta. Is
and recited many specific instances OF
his wife's discourtesy to his guests.
Mrs. Codys counsel inquired into
the character of the guests to whom
she objected and into their conduct
while at her home. The purpose OF
the inquiry was to show that the men
whom he brought to the house be-
longed to a fast and riOtous set and be-
haved in such a manner that she had
a right to object to them.
