HOW YOUNG PlERSoN WAS
KILLED is NOT DOUBTFUL

Mount Vernon, Ohio. Dec 1.-The
Knox county grand jury reported to-
day that they had failed to return any
indictments against any members of
the Delta KAPPA Epilson fraternity, or
any member of Kenyon college, in
connection with the death of Stewart
Pierson. who met a tragic death at
Gambler, while being initiated into
the college society. The jurors were
of the opinion that Pierson was either
tied upon the track or in such posi-
tion that he could not extricate him
self, but the guilty party or parties
could not be determined.

Washington, Dec. Nothing is
known c. the white house on the eve
of the opening of congress- which
would point to a compromise of the
fight over rate legislation. From the
indications now manifest the fight will
be to a finish.
There will be two reports from the
senate committee. The one recon-
mended by the president will be sup
ported by Senators Cullom, Dolliver,
Clapp, Newlands, Tillman and Car
mack.
The other report will recommend
a similar bill, except that it will pro-
vide for Senator Foraker's remedy for
rate evils-namely, review by the fed
eral circuit courts. II will be sup
ported by Senators Elkins, Aldrich,
Foraker, Kean, Foster and possibly
Millard.
There is one point on which the ad-
ministration and the railways are dia-
metrically opposed TO one another,
and on which there seems to be no
possibility for agreement. This is the
proposal to give a commission power
to deal with the rate.
This point is held by President
Roosevelt to be the crux of the whole
situation. Everything else is second
AIRY and comparatively unimportant.
The railway interests also agree
that all the other matters are second
airy, and are willing to cOncede them.
Hence the deadlock.
Can the president force the United
States senate?
No. Answering the question in the
light of past experience, it must be
confessed that in all probability he
cannot. Considering the fact that the
members of the senate who are op-
posing the administration are the
senate leaders; considering the fact
that the railway interests are repre-
sented in the senate 10y Nelson w.
AldriCh, leader OF the senate ring,
and by those members who make up
what is known as the steering com
mittee'; and considering the weight
of senatorial iEertia and the tricks
and turns by which legislation may
be defeated, il is hard to believe thar
they will not be able to maintain their
record of having their sweet will
and the public be ID.

PoWERLESs
TO OPEN COMMUNICATION,

St Petersburg, Dec. 1.-The crisis
continues. The telegraph tie-up
throughout Russia is practically com
plete and the government does not
know what is happening in the in
terror of the empire. Emissaries of
the strikers have been sent to Fin
land to induce their companions to
Join the strike. This would cut on
the cable communication, which re-
mains open to the press and govern
ment, although the central office here
IS nominally closed. AS much as the
government would like to resist, it is
powerless.

CLASSED AS A COW !!

Just now our legal department is
wrestling with an unusual question. 1t
in this. When is a cow not a cow -

New Willard last night TO a Times re-
porter. Mr.. Fleming is prominent law
yer who Is on his way to New York
"A few days ago." said he. IAN in
spectOr reported to Elmer y. Powell.
assessor and collector OF water rates.
that a water patron in the eastern part
of the town was paying for water for
only one COW, when he really owned
two The owner was sent for, and when
Mr.. Powell asked him about the cows
he denied that ne owned two. and in
sisted that he had but one.
Mr.. Powell then sent for the inspec-
tor and directed him TO again visit the
premises of the man whom he had
charged with using water for two cows
and see IL he had made a mistake. The
inspector again reported that the man
had two co-s.
"Once mere the owner was sent for
and questioned and he again denied
the inspectors report.
Il will take the inspectors report >
said Mr.. Powell. and you will have to
pay for water for two cows
" oh. i see said the man. your in
spector has counted my yearling as a
cow
This was a stumper fer Powell. He
had not thought OF such a thing, so he
sent the question to the degal depart
ment to pass upon. and when / left St
Louis "A few DAYS ago the counsel for
the city government had not decided
the question, and the man had paid for
water for only one COW.
Webster defines COW as. the matured
female of bovine animals And there
you are l think the owner of the cow
and yearling has Powell on the hip"
