NO OUTRAGE WILL BE COMMITTED.
Eight Grade Examinations Will Not Be
Held Here.

Colonel Roardman of The prosser E,'-
lctin is all worked up over a little item
published in the Republic stating hat
eighth grade eXamiua ton, would be nelG
in North Yakima for the entire county
He comments upon the rumor Is lol-
lows:
The eighth grade examinations will
be held in Yakima county on January
10, says the Republic. The state board
of education has been making inquiry
to ascertain whether the examination Of
all the applicants of the county cannot
he held in this city. The county super
intendcnt is now gathering data from
the teachers to ascertain haw many APP
plcants there will probably be aud viii
make report to the state board. The
object of holding the examination here
is for the purpose OF eliminating the
possibility of pupils being favored with
help.
1t is probable that should the cxami
nation be held at this place there would
be but few applicants outside the city
take advantage of it. The trip here
would cost more than the parents of the
children would feel like paying and then
it would take up to much of their time
to make the journey. In some instances
as high as three days would be required
for the pupils to make the journey to
this place and return TO their homes.
| 1t is hardly likely that the scheme will
be approved by the patrons of the
schools outside of this place.
The only thing to be gained, it is
claimed by those who oppose it, is to
throw around the applicants Il greater
amount of fairness; that is. the appli-
cants would be under the same instruc-
tor during the examination and no help
could be obtained.
Colonel Boardman denounces this as
an outrage, but he need not have wor-
| ried so much over it; it was all mis-
take, for Superintendent Dickey informs
the Herald that it never was his inten-
who wish to take tncm These examina-
tons held here-tnat he never thought
of such thing. These examinations
will be held on Thursday and Friday of
this week, but they will be conducted
in the districts in which there are pupils
who wish to takethem. These examina-
tions are not for promotion; they are
merely held TO determine the proficiency
of those pupils who have completed Ger
tain branches of the school course. and
will embrace those studies only. Sup
erintendent Dickey states that about
$50 pupils will be examined, and that
those passing will not be required to be
| examined in those branches again. They
will be given credit according to their
standings, and these credits will count
when they are examined for promotion.

The explosion came when the sweet
heart opened the package and found
therein a pair of long black stockings.
She blushed. Then she opened the

GERMAN PRISONER MAINTAINS
ATTITUDE OF PERFECT RIG
ITY-FASTS LONG TIME.
Guards Have to Dress and Undress
Motionless Man-His Case Proves
Puzzle.

LONDON, Oct. 3.-The German
butler VINO is awaiting trial at Car
marthen for attempted murder re-
mains a puzzle to the prison officials
and doctors.
He is still as motionless as statue,
and apparently as helpless. He main
tains an attitude Of perfect rigidity,
and has to be dressed and undressed
by the warders, propped up against
wall.
The task is not an easy one, for
each limb has to be placed separately
in the position necessary for it's cloth
ing or unclothing, and it is as easy
to manipulate as if it were part of a
confirmed cataleptic. :. .. =.
AS one Of the war ems who shares
the pleasures of making his toilet said
yesterday: cit would not be nalf SO
bad if we could wind him up
Thinks Prisoner Is Feignins.
The general impression among the
unscientific part of the prison staff is
that Phroso gave crude performance
compared with their prisoners, and
that large fortune awaits him on the
stage when the law has finished with
him.
The prison doctors are unable to
make up their minds whether he is
really the victim of some strange dis
ease, or only clever malingerer.
Various tests have been applied,
but he has withstood them all sue
cessfully. Heavy weights have been
dropped suddenly on the floor of his
cell. but he has taken no notice Of
them. Warders have crept silently
to the eel door at all hours of the
night, hoping to surprise MIN in
moment of relaxation, but have failed
to do so.
Becomes Ravenous at Times.
A curious thing is that he will fast
for long periods, and then a sudden
desire for food seizes him, and he
devours ravenously the provisions
which have accumulated in his cell.
These lapses into humanity invar-
iably occur wnen the man thinks that
10 T.; obcorx,od and immediately after
his meal he lapses into his statue
like condition.
The difficulties which beset the dl-
agnosis of the case are increased by
the fact that very little is known OF
his antecedents or of his family rec
ord.

mic DOW IN STATE DEPARTMENT
OVER RECENT MYSTERIOUS
DISCLOSURES.
President Has Directed That Great
Care be Taken in Handling
Official Messages.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. S.-There
is a big row in the state department
over the way secret information has
become public property recently. Inc
kew to all important messages to and
from foreign powers is believed to be
in the possession of at least one for
eign government.
This situation has led the presl-
y1ent to direct that greater care De
taken in enciphering and decipherlng
,,,essaoes so as to place the RESPONSE
bility upon as few persons as posi-
BILE.
Embarrassing to President.
# has been embarrassing to the
president to find that Instructions
which he sends to the state depart
ment for transmission to representa-
tiyes of the United States abroad have
become public before they have reached
their destination. Sometimes the IN
structions were confidential, and were
to be observed only in certain contin-
gencies. Their publication forced the
hand of the administration before it
was ready to play the game.
There has been an embarrassment
also through the publication of lnfor-
nation which has been obtained con-
fidentially for the use of the presl-
dent in determining the policy the
United States should follow in ques-
tions that nave developed.
Powers Watch the Press.
II is no secret that representatives
of the powers in Washington watch
the daily press with keenest attention
frequently finding it possible to ad-
wise nome governments of what the
United States will do before the Amer
lean ambassador presents mis- commu-
nication. Forewarned is always fore
armed and the foreign government
thus enjoys an advantage which Is
not possessed by the authorities here
1t is expected the president will
endeavor to induce congress to autho-
rize the organization of a cipher bu-
reau. Such bureaus exist in the for
eign offices of all foreign powers.

CHANGE OF FRONT.
They Support Rate Lesislation-Ex'
acting As to the Kind.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-As the
time draws nearer for the assembling
of congress, the line of attack of rail-
road interests on the presidents policy
of rate-regulation assumes some deh-
niteness. 1t looks as if the railroad
interests would begin by claiming that
they are not averse to legislation; In
fact, that they think legislation is
highly necessary. but that such legis-
lation is highly necessary, but that
such legislation should be of char
acter that they can consistently sup
port. If they can make the public
believe that this attitude is sincere,
their fight will be almost half won.
This attitude, however, does not tally
with that which was assumed by them
and their friends in the senate COM
mittee hearing last spring. The bulk
of the testimony then taken, was that
there was already sufficient law, and
ests was that congress should let we'll
enough alone. Scores of heavy ship
pers from all parts of the country were
brought to Washington to echo this
cry, and it is quite clear that at that
time it was the purpose of the railway
interests to fight legislation Of any
kind
been a change of front, due in all
probability to the discussion of the
interest which the public has taken in
the subject. Senator Elkins, inter-
viewed several times in New York
says that legislation is greatly needed,
and that congress will certainly pass a
bill next winter. He then tells the
people what kind of a bill he thinks
should be passed, and, as in this mat
ter he is the mouthpiece of the railway
interests, his words are of a good deal
of interest. He would pass the entire
question of rates up to the federal
courts. He plays upon the confidence
which the country has in these courts,
and takes no note of the exhaustive
opinion of the attorney general that
rate-making is a legislative and not a
judicial function Tho oo,,r+e 49,.
fore, would decline to exercise the
rate-making power, even if command
ed to do so by congress.

Jack Jeffries May Fight Al Kaufman
SAN FRANCISCO, Monday, Oct. q
Billy Delaney had a little heart-to

ball magnate Saturday, VINO is inter-

it was thought that Delaney looks

President Samuel Spenser of the

President Samuel SpenSer OF the
Southern railway system, who headed
the railroad lobby in Washington DUR
ing the senate committee hearings, is
also quoted as being in favor Of leg
islation. He so testified before the
senate committee, and his testimony
is now reproduced by James H. Maddy
of New York, at the read of the rail-
way publicity bureau. who says 1t
should be taken as the attitude OF
the railways in the present agitation"
Mr.. Spenser would have an interstate
commerce court created to have
Jurisdiction over all cases arising
under the interstate commerce act,
this court to pass upon all rates ad-
Judged by the commission on COM
plant and hearing to be unreasonable,
before the rate shall take effect, there
being no appeal to the supreme court,
save on questions of law, and no stay
during appeal"
iiiiinnnnn ffiE cmfwy cmfWy mpD
The one thing which makes it I'M
possible for this situation of appar-
ent harmony to result in one long,
loud acclaim of jay is the demand OF
the railways that this legislation must
be of the kind that they map out.
They will not accept the presidents
kind, and they are eternally opposed
to allowing any rate fixed by the
interstate commission to become eff
fective in advance Of its being tried
out by the courts. This is the crux
of the entire controversy and it rem
,iers the seeming consent Of the rail-
ways for legislation of no conse-
uuence to all who believe that the
position of the president is the right
position.
There now comes along another
scheme for legislation, bearing also
the earmarks of the railroad pool.
Under this scheme the interstate COM
merce commission is to have, in add1-
ton to it's present authority, the right
to impose fines in the event any rail-
way company refuses to accept its
findings. The promulgator Of this
scheme says that it is great stuff,
and predicts that it will be the basis
of a compromise between the pres1-
dent and his railroad opposers. The
objection to such a program is OBJ
vious. Under it's operation the rail-
ways could escape the fines by making
even a very slight change in rates,
and then matters would remain just
as they were before.
While all this discussion is going on
friends of the presidents plan should
keep botn eyes on those railroad in
terests which are trying with might
and main to bring the tariff into the
foreground and make it an issue, TAX
ing advantage of the federal deficit
for that purpose. Should they succeed
in this, railroad rate legislation is
doomed, for the public, as has been
proved many times, not in this coun-
try only, but elsewhere, cannot, or will
not, follow more than one great ques-
ton at one and the same time. The
cleverness of this tariff ruse is
found in the fact that the great mid
die west is strongly for revision, and
is at the same time the hotbed of
agitation for reilroad legislation.
