A COTTON
WAREHOUSE
llerson County Farmers Have
Formed Stock Company and
Will Build Warehouse.

Arrangements have been about per-
fected for the building OF a cotton
warehouse in this city, by stock
company composed of Anderson
county farmers. Through Mr.. Trice,
general manager of the l. 4 G.. n
railroad, the Herald learns, they have
secured on lease the plot of ground
on which is located the fire house, aud
will build iu ample time to take care Of
the next cotton crop. The move is a
good one, and the Herald believes will
prove a very profitable one to the
farmers, as we'll as to the city.
With the facilities afforded by such a
warehouse the farmer can bring his
cotton to town, store it, and draw
what money he needs, selling his cot
ton when the price suits him.

MAYOR RESPONSIBLE
FOR Big EXPENSE
Special Election Caused by
Jones' Failure to Resign an
Expensive Proposition

There will be a special election for alder
man In the Fifth ward of Minneapolis to-
day, and by order of David P. Jones, the
former alderman and the present mayor,
all saloons will be closed while the cleo
tors are selecting his successor.

business some years ago; "a graduate of
the university law school and has the in
dorsement of the Voters league, which
seeks to select the candidates for alder
man.
Christopher Percell is the candidate of
the Democrats. He does not have the In
dorsement of the Voters league nor does
he desire it.
There is another candidate in the field
of whom the Voters league says nothing
He is Harry C. Mckee, who was the pub

for. city treasurer at the last election It
is said he has been induced to enter the
contest with the expectation that he will
divide the vote. of the Democrats and
make the election of the Republican cam
didate an easy matter.
Mayor Jones refused to resign after he
had been nominated for mayor on the Re-
publican ticket so his successor as alder
man could have been chosen at the gen
eral election in November. He held to his
office until Dec. 80, and as a result the

.LOF TUS FAILS TO
FOLLOW CHARGES
Declares That Further Action
by Him IS Unnecessary at
Present

The charges made by George s. Lotus
relative to the alleged granting of rebates
by st. Paul railroads and other matters
based on diseriminative tariffs were the
main topics OF discussion among railroad
men yesterday.
The course official action would take
was the most general of the phases of
the case to be considered by the railroad
men, and they seemed to be about equally
divided between the opinions that the
matter would be dropped and that it
would not.
Mr. LOTUS himself declared that he had
nothing further to say until the charges
of Relating We're definitely denied by the
railroads involved.
Waiting Action
'.I cannot see why should do anything
further said he, "at least until posi-
tive denial has been entered by the roads.
s. c. Stickney is quoted as saying that
my charge concerning the switching dis
crimination of his road was inaccurate. /.
however, will say that as far as the gen.
eral character of my charges was con-
cerned that they were substantially cor
rect. There may have been some slight
unimportant inaccuracy, but in the main
they were correct.
w w. Broughton, general freight agent
of the Great Northern, merely reiterated
the charges. This view of the case was
also taken by several of the other gem
eral officers Of roads connected by Mr..
LOTUS with the charges.
No action has been officially brought
to the notice OF the state railroad and
warehouse commission, and as commis
ton the other members did not call a spe-
cial meeting to look into the matter In
view of his absence also the hearing of
the switching dispute against the Great
Western has been postponed until a week
from today It is expected by that time
Mr.. Staples will have returned and a fun
commission will hear the evidence
Commission May Act
Ira B. Mills, who was the only member
of the commission about the capitol yes
terday, said that the body probably had
the right to institute proceedings looking
to the investigation of the charges by its
own motion, but that as a criminal ele-
ment existed in the charges as well as
civil complaint. such action might be
questioned.
At any rate he said mo real action
will be taken until the full board has had
an opportunity to consider the allegations
of Mr. Lotus.

C0RkS GAMBLING Up
jerome Closes Every House in
New York City for Keeps

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.-FolIowing the
surrender to District Attorney Jerome
today of the gambling outfit belonging
to Frank Farrell, Dave Johnson and
Frank McDougall, it was declared by
counsel for the gamblers that Jerome
had closed every gambling house in
New York City and that they would
remain closed: The instrument which
made such effectual action possible was
declared by. Lawyer Daniel OReilly.
representing the gamblers, to be. the.
Bowling law, enacted at the request of
Jerome when he was trying to induce
Jesse Lewisohn to testify against Rich
ard Garfield. That law automatically
releases from punishment any gambler
who gives evidence against himself to
the district attorney, but compels him
to give such evidence. Lawyer O'Reil-
Iy said:
There will be no gambling houses
in this city. That they will not reopen
is shown by the surrender of all
gambling. aphernalia. They cannot
afford to buy more every time the dis
trict attorney takes notion to make
a raid. Another important act which
would indicate that there will be no
more gambling is that if the men who
have surrendered their gambling ap-.
paratus should begin gambling again.
the district attorney could bring
charges not only against them, but
against their employer and their
patrons. He says he will do this
Though Frank Farrell did not per-
sonally respond today to subpoena
issued for him, it was stated that he
had promised to return to New York
and give evidence against himself.

TELEPHONE COMPANY
SUED FOR BIG DAMAGES
Asked to Pay $4,000 for Burns Receiv-
ed by Small Boy

Suits aggregating $4,000 have been
filed in the district court against the
Northwestern Telephone Exchange
company for injuries sustained by John

number of fingers and that he was
otherwise injured.
For the boy damages in the sum of
$4,000 is demanded, while the mother
asks for $4,000 for the loss of her sons

DECIDES ON BILL
immigration Society's Measure
Will Soon Be Ready


The legislative committee of the
State immigration society met last
night at the Commercial club and de-
cided on the form the bill to be pre-
sented to the legislature in the interest
of attracting settlers to the state should
take.
Judge J. w. Willis presided and
many of the suggestions presented by
him were adopted in the instructions as
to framing the bill.
1t was decided that it should contain
a provision that the state immigration
bureau should consist of the governor,
state auditor and secretary of state.
These three should name two citizens
with them and the five should compose
the board, which shall act without COM
pensation.
Under the terms of the bill the COM
mission or bureau is authorized and
: directed to take such measures as are
adequate to advertise the state and at
tract immigration. The bureau is also
authorized to select such agents as are
necessary to carry on the work.
The bill when presented will be the
one object of care to the officers and
members of the State immigration So
ciety. The bin provides for moderate
expenditures.

NEWS OF THE CITY
WERE OLD FRIENDS
Smelling Deserters Said to
Have Previous Record


Friendship dating back several years
induced the desertion of Private Ro-
meo Costello with John O'Neill, the
prisoner he was guarding at Fort Shell
ing,. Sunday morning
officers at Fort Smelling claim to
have discovered that Costello and
ONeill were friends and that the es-
cape was deliberately planned. It is
said that the men had formerly been
comrades in the Twenty first infantry,
and that Costello had been dishonor-
ably discharged from that organization
at Fort Smelling
Costello. it is asserted, had saved
5000, which he had in his possession at
the time he disappeared with O'Neill.
1t is supposed that the deserters had
arrangements made and that they
changed their clothing somewhere in
Minneapolis.
Descriptions of the two men have
been given to the police officers of the
Twin Cities, but they have not found
the deserters. It is thought that they
have taken a train for Chicago or some
other city.

HEARST TALKS COAL
Tells of Cost of Carrying An
thracitc to New York

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 1s.-Gov-
ernment rate-making for the railroads
was further considered today by the
house committee on interstate and for
eign commerce. Representative Hearst, of
New York, was heard.
Asked what was the value of coal in
the mines, the cost of mining and the
Transportation, Mr.. Hearst said the opera
tors claimed they made profit of only
cents a ton. However, the actual cost
of transporting coal from the anthracite
fields to New York was not greater than
80 cents a ton while the rate was 81 .55 a
ton. The deduction was that the inde-
pendent operator was placed at de-
cided disadvantage as he had to pay all
of his profits to the railroads which, Mr..
Hearst said, were owned by the coal COM
-bine.
A lengthy discussion ensued as to the
constitutional authority of congress to
commerce commission to fix rates.
Representative Adamsorl, of Georgia.
interjected that to his mind these were all
minor questions as compared to the prop
osition that congress should take charge
of other peoples money and property and
run the same. He had no idea that any
bill on the subject now before congress
would become a law

pronounced hostility to the report on
the part of several of the senators.
Senator H. A. Morgan is one of the
senators credited with disposition to
oppose the reference of the report to
the senate judiciary committee, on the
ground that the commission has ex-
ceeded it's authority and has legislated
instead of conining its work to a re-
vision of the statutes.
Tear Report to Pieces
In the house it is said that the COM
mittee on military affairs will ask that
the military code contained in the
revision commissions report be re-
ferred to that committee. Serious OBJ
jections have been filed by the Ma
tional Guard association to the adop-
ton by the legislature Of the military
code proposed by the revision commits
sion, and it is "a part of the campaign
of the guardsmen to refer the part of
the report in which they are interested
to the committee on military affairs.
Objections on the part of members
of the state game and fish commission
to the code of game laws proposed by
the commission may also result in a
reference of the game code to the COM
mittee on game laws. Other interests
affected are expected to ask for special
reference of different parts of the code
to legislative committees supposed to.

Der. ITO enact the entire report into

are thought to be undesirable, is my
proposal said Mr.. Wallace, 'sand I

the commissions report"
Durant Expresses Regret
Senator E. w. Durant, of saltwater,
said yesterday that he had been incor-
rectly quoted in connection with the
revision commissions report Re
GENTLY he said, Il expressed my re-
harshly criticised the revision COM
mission. AS a member of that COM
mission, the late Hiram f. Stevens
had been very diligent member of the
commission. He was member of the
commission UP to the beginning of his
illness for some years before his death.
His physical condition debarred him
from legal work and thought, and /
believe that the delay in the commits
sion's report was doubtless due in
measure to Mr.. Stevens illness and
subsequent death. 1t is true that I am
in favor of having the senate's journal
expunged of the criticisms of the stat
ute revision commission
Senator H. H. Horton, who is COM
monty considered the author of the re-
port criticising the commission, said
last night that he had nothing to apolo-
gize for in the report.
: The commission has brought in its
report three days ahead of time,n he
said, but it is practically valueless
