ANTl-PAss BILL KILLED.
Famous Measure Goes Down to Defeat
After Flard Fight.

Famous Measure Go6s DOWN 20 Uefedt
After Fiard Fight.
Des Moines, AIril l.-State officers,
members OF the general assembly OF
Iowa, supreme and district court
judges. as well as county. city and
town officials, and delegates to politi'
cal conventions may still ride on free
transportation where such transporta.
ton is,obtainable. This Is the verdict
OF the Iowa senate which yesterday
emasculated the Hughes anti-pass bill
by the adoption of several amend.
ments and then killed 1t by vote OF
"a to II. The original vote on the
measure was % to 16, lacking one OF
being constitutional majority, and
Senator Hughes changed his vote to
nay with the hope Of securing enough
votes to pass the bill on rsconsidera.
ton.
The discussion on the measure at
tine hands OF the senators yesterday
morning developed the first real lively
interest in that body. Senator Jami.
son OF Clarke county. one of the priIl'
cipal counties in the Burlington reser'
walton, came out in the firm stand
against the bill as an evil which
should not be incorporated in the
statutes of Iowa. He declared that he
had never ridden on more than three
hundred miles of free transportation
in his life and could therefore not be
accused Of any Interior motive in op'
posing the bill. y.........
He took the ground that, if adopted
the anti.pass law would result in
separating the corporations and the
common people and create breach
which would result in more evil than
the issuance of free transportation by
the roads does now. He said the &C
ceptance of pass by member OF the
legislature or any other officer cam
paigning was no worse than the &C
ceptance of the hospitality OF the
home of the farmep when the cam
paigner is trying to ingratiate himself
in the hearts OF the voters.
Senator Hughes pleaded in vain that
the PASS evil Is one of the greatest
abroad the land. although he spoke
to the question directly several times.
Various senators aired their views as
different amendments were offered and
either adopted or voted down. The
amendments which destroyed the en-.
tire force of the bill were those in.
corporated in the first two sections OF
the measure. They were similar. One
Of these provided that the pass should
not be issued where there was evi
dence to show that 1t was given to
corrupt the officials receiving it, and
the other prohibited its being accepted
when there was evidence of the same
character. These amendments were
adopted by close vote.
The vote was as follows:
Yeas-Brooks, Crossley, Dowell,
Durham. Eckles, Elerick. Ericsson
Gilliland, Harper. Hartshorn. Hogue.
Hughes, Jones. Kimmel Kline, Lewis
Maytag, Newberry Smith of Mitchell,
Stirton, Turner. Warren, Wilson OF

Cedar Rapids, March 3l.-The Hon.
Thomas Berkebille, one of the best
known attorneys in this city, has filed
papers with the county clerk bring
ing action against the Cedar Rapids
Gazette in behalf of his client, Fred Il.
CASTOR of Des Moines. The Gazette
is charged with having made malic.
ious and wholly unwarranted attack
upon Mr.. Gaston's character as a
newspaper correspondent, based upon
private telegram addressed to one
Of its reporters, which was wholly
misleading on account Of necessary
brevity 1t appears that the animus
of the attack grew OUT OF the lacs
that the Republican "scooped" the
Gazette, on the stories to which re-
ference was. made in the telegram and
that the Gazette vented sits spleen by
indirectly denouncing the stories as
false under the guise Of an assault
upon Mr.. CASTOR.

senate Appropriations Comnittee
Makes Final Report.
Des Moiles, March 23.-The senate
appropriations committee yesterday
completed It's final recommendations
to the legislature The action Of the
committee on the State university
was kept for the last thing, action
being taken in the afternoon.
So much pressure had been brought
on the legislature by the friends OF
the university, that it was thought the
committee would yield and increase
the allowance for the Iowa city insti
tuition.
The first allowance had been $780,
900. The committee did raise this sum
somewhat and allowed the university
$4,000 additional, or total of $149,-

mended approximate almost $4,000
900. At its disposal. the state has
81 100000. Added to this is contin-
gent fee revenue of about 100000,
making total Of about $1,7O0,00O.
The ways and means committee in
the face of these approprlaCons Is
face to face with the possible neces-
sity of increasing the levy, although
some means Of avoiding this may be
discovered. H. 80
Among the items of appropriations
are the following: State educational
institutions, s5Os.0o0: board of control
institutions, $S99,999; National guard,
$75.30O: state historical building,
