made him Indifferent to the law.

HER TEETH THE ONLY cLEw.
Ten Thonsand Dentists VIII Receive
Diagram of the Mouth of MUIR
dered Girl.

Colorado Springs, COL, Dec. 23.-The
police department will have printed
10000 copies of the diagram Of the
dental work in the mouth Of the young
woman found murdered on Cutler
mountain last Saturday afternoon.
These diagrams will be mailed to TO-
600 dentists with request that they
be exhibited to all the professional
acquaintance Of the recipients and 1t
Is believed that in this way the de-
scription of the dental work will be
brought before the attention Of all the
dentists in the United States. This
is regarded as the strongest clew to
the identity of the girl and 1t is be-
lieved that when her identity is estab-
lished the discovery Of the murderer
will speedily follow.

Jews PRACTICE P0LYGAMY.
In Russia They Claim to BE Follow
ing the Teachings Of David
and Solomon.

Odessa, Dec. 23.-'The question
whether Jews are prohibited by their
religion from contracting plural mar
riages has been raised in the case OF
one Cronstein, convicted Of polygamy,
owing to his taking advantage Of the
Russian law which recognizes the le-
gality of plural marriages where the
religion OF the contracting parties au-
thorizes 1t. Cronstein appealed, claim
ing, although the practice was dis
continued in western countries, the
Jews were following the teaching Of
Gershon as authorized by the talmud
and the patriarchs. David, Solomon.
etc., and that the practice was now
followed by the Israelites in the noun
tains Of the Caucasus. The court al
lowed the appeal and summoned q
rabbi to give expert testimony.

NO HOPE FOR REFORMS.
The Car Tells Zemstvos That Their
Agitation for q Constitution 10
"Presumptuous and Tactless."

st. Petersburg. Dec. 23.-Emperor
Nicholas has formally notified the
country that agitation for a constitu-
ton and the convocation Of national
assembly is useless. Such is the con-
struction placed upon the Endorsement
written in his own hand on the resolu-
lions telegraphed by the Chernigov
zemstvo December 20, begging him In
the most loyal manner to convocate
legally elected members Of the zem-
stvos to present programme Of re-
forms for his consideration. The en-
peror wrote on the dispatch: Il con-
slider the action Of the president to be
presumptious and tactless. Questions
of state administration are Of no con-
Germ to the zemstyoes whose functions
and rights are clearly defined by law"

.B0atswain of the Trawler Fleet
Says Foreign Torpedo Boats Were
on Doggcr Bank.

London, Dec. 23.-The publication in
st. Petersburg Of the statement that
Hull fishermen have deposed that for
eign torpedo boats were among the
trawlers Off Dogger bank when the lat
ter were fired upon by ships of the
Russian Baltic squadron is probably
nothing more than repetition Of SIM
liar statements emanating from Hull.
Those are circumstantial and 1t would
certainly appear to be true that some
men Of the game cock feet have made
statements before the Russian consul.
The name Of only one of these has
been revealed. He is the boatswain
of the trawler Ava, and he said that
he was induced to make the statement
while he was intoxicated. He admits
he received a certain amount Of
money, but now says the statement
he made Is untrue.

WHY IOWA BANKS FAIL.
senator Lewis Declares Ment Trust
Has Ruined Credits and Forced
Men to Commit Suicide.

Des Moines. Ia, Dec. 24.-Forty
banks have failed and one-fourth as
many officials have committed suicide
in Iowa during the past two years. In
connection with these tragedies the
charge has been made that they are
due to the meat trust Much Of the
money Of western banks is loaned up
on cattle and food which is to be used
in preparing them for market. Many
Of the bankers have been large stock
raisers themselves. Senator Lewis, Of
Page county, member Of the bank
ing committee In the last legislature.
shares this view. It is held by him that
meat values were forced down by the
alleged trust, regardless Of the scarcity
and the great demand. Many farmers
were ruined during the past two years
as well as large stockmen.

Rates." and his speech Is regarded az
his entry into the senatorial contest
as a candidate for the seat in the
United States senate now occupied by
Senator Clapp, Of st. Paul. The gov

everything which enters into the life

sonable rates are charged and dis
ordinations are common. These evils

NIT that We are helpless is to declare
that constitutional government is q

any man or any body OF men to carry
