of his employer, H. II. Holmes, that
he has already murdered ten women, is
the belief of the police, formed after
yesterdays developments.
The latest link in the chain of
evidence that is piling up is a state,
ment from Mrs. Anna Hendrickson that
she believes she was married to Hook
a year ago.
Mrs. H endrickson told the police yes
ferday that a man answering Hook s
description married her in Hammond

found. HThe man who married me un
der the name Of Hendrickson used tc
wear just such a shoe,' said Mrs. Hen

PRESENT DEPUTY
TO Be PROMOTED
P. M. KERsT TO SUCCEED PUBLIC
EXAMINER JOHNSON.
Appointment Announced, but Will Not
Be Made Until Time Is Ripe for
Change in the Department-Frank N.
Stacy of. Minneapolis Will Be First
Deputy When Change Is Made.

Peter M. Kerst Of st. Paul will sue
seed S. T. Johnson as public examiner
and superintendent of banks.
Frank N. Stacy of Minneapolis will
be deputy public examiner, the posi-
ton second to the head Of the depart
ment.
These appointments were announced
by Governor johnson today as de.
cided on.' They are not made yet, and
Of administration. The announceme nt
is made to end the suspense. Public
Examiner johnson will serve until the
particular work he has been engaged
on-the inquiry into the state audi
tors office-has been finished.
The new appointment will make nc
change in the policy of the office. Mr.
Kerst is now deputy public examiner
under Mr.. johnson, and has worked in
close accord with him during the past
three years. Much of the actual work
on the books Of the state auditor was
done by him.
The future public examiner Is dem
ocrat, and was appointed to a place
in the department four years ago by
f. M. Pope, at the special request OF
Governor Lind. He had experience az
bank official, and on account Of hi
efficiency in that work was retained
during the Van SAINT and johnson ad
ministrations. His appointment is I'm
derstood to be very satisfactory to thu
state bankers. It is also pleasing tt
the, friends Of the retiring public ex
aminer.
Frank N. Stacy, named for deputy
public examiner, Is well-known Min
neapolitan. He is now holding the pc
sition of private secretary to Congress
man Lind. He has been twice demo
cratic candidate for city controller

KNOCKS NUMEROUS
FOR HEPBURN BILL
Criticism May Delay Committee
Report President Said to
Oppose Measure.
BY w. w. Jermane.

Washington, Jan. 23.-The Hepburn
railroad rate bill is just now target
for criticism and if the criticism
should continue to develop it will be
difficult to get the bill out of COM
mittee with a favorable report, to say
nothing of its securing final passage
thru either house. This criticism is by
representatives Of shipping interests,
who are here i'll large numbers, as well
as by representatives of railroads.
Complaints from St. Paul.
W., H. Patton of St. Paul, represent
ing practically all the commercial
bodies of. that city, finds fault with the
bill. He is strongly in favor of legis-
lation increasing the powers Of the in
terstate commerce commission, but
harm than good. He thinks provision
empowering the courts to pass upon the
reasonableness Of the commission s
orders, is fatal to the bill, as reasonable
ness is a question Of fact, and if the
court may pass upon it, why have the
commission do 500 This provision, he
thinks, will mean delay. He also finds
fault with the provision for suspending
the commission IS orders. H..
The giving of bond is also regarded
as bad feature of the bill, as it would
feited, to discover to whom the money
| collected under it should be paid.
Mr.. Patton objects also to the provi'
sion abolishing the present interstate
commerce commission. All pending
cases, he says, would have to be heard
| anew, which would result in vexatious
delay. Mr.. Patton thinks the bill a
mere scheme to defeat the will of the
people and prevent legislation. ~
Presidents Approval Doubtful.
1t is whispered today that the Hep
burn bill does not meet with the presi
dent 8 approval, but at present T an
unable to confirm this. The president
has very decided views on this question
and assures his callers that he will Sc
cure relief for the public at the earliest
possible moment.
Whether the Hepburn bill wa.
changed after the president looked il
over, or whether the president approved
it, not clearly understanding it's provi
sions, is not yet discoverable. One
thing IS clear, however, if the Hep
burn bill in it's present form is not al
administration measure, such bill will
soon be introduced. Meanwhile, criti
cism of the Hepburn bill is active, an(
several days may elapse before the stu
alton can be cleared up.

abandon Call, tho saving himself.
Mr.. Call, the only one alive on the
scene, backed to rock and used the

The Indians kept their distance until
his ammunition was exhausted, when they
closed in and shot him six times. His

RUSSIAN CRISIS
AFFECTS STOCKS
Thousands Of Shares Unloaded at

New York, Jan. 23.--The New York
stock market was considerably affected
today by the news Of the outbreak yes
terday in st. Petersburg. First prices
OF the leading speculative issues were
lower than Saturdays close to the ex-
tent OF point or more and the gen.
eral tone of the market was weak.
There did not seem to be any organized
support to prices. Sentiment was I'M
doubtedly very much unsettled by the
Russian developments. London, where
late prices for Americans showed very
material declines, was heavy seller
here. ... e-
1t is estimated that 10000 shares of
stocks, principally Union Pacific, South
ern Pacific, Fries, Rock Island and the
Steel issues were unloadsd in this mar
tically no foreign buying to offset this.
Presumably the large part of today's
sales was for account of financial and
banking interests in Paris, Berlin,
Frankfort as well as London.

Recoveries were reported on the Lon
don and continental markets before the
opening here and London professed re-
assurance at the calm attitude of the
Paris market and the absence of pres

this did not ward off the shock to the

violence. First recoveries were beat.

DRAWBACK GOES
ON MIXED WHEAT
Attorney Generals Ruling Elk
pected to Be Favorable
It's Due This Week.
BY w. w. Jermane.

Washington, Jan. 23.-Attorney Gen
eral Moody at the cabinet meeting last
Friday submitted the memorandum of
his opinion regarding the mixing of
domestic with Canadian wheat under
the drawback section Of the Dingley
by the president and his advisers, and
Mr.. Moody will this week draft a for
NAL letter to Secretary Shaw for his
guidance in dealing with the Mime
apolis millers.
While no official statement has been
made as to what the attorney general
will hold, it is assumed that he. will
hold that the mixing proposition is all
right.
Criticism Answered.
No stock is taken here in the charges
Of the Northwestern Miller against Sec
rotary Shaw of delay in issuing these
regulations. In the first place, this de-
Law is primarily due to the president s
desire personally to have the question
fully inquired into because it touches the
general tariff question very closely. At
his request, Secretary Shay, who was
lations could be issued without viola
ton of law, called on the attorney gen.
eral for advice. The attorney general
has been so busy with supreme court
cases that he has not been able to study
the mixing question, except at Odd mo
ments. There has been no delay, or dis
position to delay. in giving the opinion
at the earliest possible moment.
/ am advised on high authority that
| political considerations have not had
anything to do with Secretary Shaw Is
attitude, and from my own knowledge
of the case, I feel sure this statement
is true. The regulations already issued
for the grinding of imported wheat
are freely workable, notwithstanding
the Northwestern Miller's claims about
red tape, etc.
Rules Can Be Changed.
These regulations were submitted by
wire to the leading Minneapolis mill
ers before their final approval and re
ceived their Endorsement. They call fol
very little in the way of records that
are not already kept in every large
mill; but if they should finally prove
to be unavoidable, it will be very easy
to secure their modification, as the gov
eminent does not desire to place any
obstacles in the way Of the millers
Secretary Shaw withheld his signature
from these first regulations until h
could get word from the Minneapoli
millers that they were satisfied. It will
be SO easy to secure modification o.
them for proper cause that 1 am sur
prised that any attack has been mad
on this feature Of the case.

GOTHAM SCHOOL FADS
AS DRAG ON PROGRESS
New York Sun Special Service.

New York, Jan. 23.-James Clancy,
lawyer and school inspector, declares the
cause for the conditions which recently
led City Superintendent Maxwell to say
classes in school and forced others on
part time, is not that a large part Of the
children are unable to speak English,
but to the crowding to the wall Of essen
tials to make room for the multiplicity
of fads originally introduced as expert
ments into the school system, by the
present school administration.
Business men and the employers Of all
branches of labor are crying out against
the crudeness Of the material the public
schools have beer I'd ming out. Sewing
by boys is one Of the fads condemned.
