Secretary Shaw Furnishes Mill

Matter

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 12.-Sec-
retary Shaw today issued regulation
allowing a drawback on flour and the
by products resulting from the grind
ing of wholly imported wheat. The
duty on imported wheat is 25 cents a
bushel. There is pending before the
department the question of drawback
on -four produced from mixed imported
and domestic wheat. The regulation
provides

Kept, showing the quality of wheat inn
ported, the date of manufacture and the
amount of wheat used in the manufacture

waste, the value of the wheat so used
and the value at the mill of each grade

stated A sworn abstract from the records
at the mill shall be filed with the coll

Other provisions are to protect the
government against imposition and TO

Discover Glaring Errors Seals of

TrifIed With but the Ballots Show
O'Brien 56 Votes Behind Return
Made by Election Judges HaIIam
Makes Clear Gain of So in This
Precinct--- Judges Are Unable to
Offer Explanation

Another startling discovery was
made in the recount of the Seventh
ward yesterday in the Hallam- -O'Brien
contest for district Judge
In the Fourth precinct of this ward
Hallarn made a clear gain of sixty nine
votes, O'Brien losing fifty six votes, as
compared with the official returns, and
Hallam gaining thirteen.
The outcome was made to look most
peculiar by the fact that Hallam gain
ed thirteen, Markham twelve and Bum
thirty, this making almost the exact
total lost by O'Brien.
Overshadowing by far the discovery
of Wednesday in the Second precinct
of the Seventh ward, where twenty
seven ballots were found marked for
three candidates for judge. and thereby
apparently invalidated, Yesterdays
revelation came as distinct shock In
the other Contests it was considered
useless to recount the Seventh ward,
and yet more radical changes have oc-
Cured there than in any other section
OF the city.

According to the certificate attached

Butler and Stephen Devery were the
clerks who tailed the county votes
They cannot offer an explanation of the
great discrepancy. A careful inspec-
ton Of the ballots and tally sheets also
fails to furnish an explanation The
fact remains that fifty-six votes that
were apparently cast for the three
other candidates for district judge were
returned for O'Brien.
After the remarkable showing made
in the Second precinct it was not ex-
pected that there would be further rev.

President of Live Stock Men
Shouts .Liar!''

DENVER, Col. Jan. 12.-The man
who has imputed motives of dishonor
to your president is liar, an absolute
and unqualified liar, and the chair is
able to substantiate it, physically or
otherwise.
This was the declaration of President
Frank ]. Hagenbarth, of the National
Live Stock association, in speech this
afternoon. His words alluded to al
legged statements that he had been
soverzealous in his efforts to obtain for
the railroads. representation in the
governing body of the live stock asso-
citation. At the morning session sharp
criticisms of the president were made
paying too much attention to the COM
mittee meeting in which the plan of
reorganization was being considered
and too little to the meetings of the
the president appeared in person to re-
ply to his critics. He declared that he
had been insulted by delegates who had
impugned his motives. He denied that
he had been actuated by any idea but
the good of the association; that he
had no personal interest in the admis-
sion of any group of men into the
membership of the live stock associa-
ton, and then made the foregoing dec
laratien.
The association tonight Is deep in
parliamentary mire and there is no
telling In just what direction it will
emerge. The friends of the reorganiza-
stion plan after a hard fight We're sue

ing the reorganization committee to re-
port at once. 1t is barely possible that
the friends OF the measure may vote it
through, but it's passage, from all ap-
pearances. will result in the disruption
of the organization. as great numbers
of the Western men have declared that
they will withdraw if the railroads are
admitted to membership.
Committees of cattiemen and sheep
growers were appointed to consider the
plan of reorganization and report to
their respective bodies concerning de-
sirable action on the report of the gem
eral committee, which is to report to-
morrow.

RAILROADS FEEL NO
HOSTILITY TO LAW
But No More Legislation Is
Needed. Declares
Spencer

WASHINGTON. d. c., Jan. 12.--
Samuel Spencer, president of the
Southern railroad and authorized to
voice the sentiment of the New York
Central, Erie, Milwaukee, Northern
Pacific, Illinois Central, Delaware,
Lackawanna & Western and other rail-
way companies, spoke vigorously today
before the house committee on inter
state and foreign commerce against the
Cooper Quarles bill or any proposition;
to authorize the interstate commerce
commission to fix railway rates. Mr.
Spencer is the first direct and official
representative of the railways to be
heard by the committee and his testi-
mony is regarded as the keynote of the
opposition to rate fixing by the govern
ment.
Mr.. Spencer stated at the outset that
II was not his purpose to discuss the
subject in its entirety. There were,
however, important points which he
wished to emphasize. Before the op-
Grafton of the interstate commerce law
the rebate, secret contract and discrirn-
inatory devices of various kinds were
the rule. Now the reverse is the case.
Rates are substantially maintained.
All Agree as to Rebates
There is no difference of opinion, y
continued Mr.. Spencer, between the
railroads of the country, congress AMI
the president on the subject that re-
bates are wrong. We agree with the
language of the president, that the
highways of transportation must be
kept open to all upon equal terms On
that basis the railway companies are
anxious 10 aid and operate. But I
do not think any additional legislation
is necessary in order to proceed against
that particular class of abuses. If such
legislation does appear to congress to
be necessary, the railways of the coun-
try will certainly stand in co-operation
and aid to that end. That particular
phase of regulation has already been
pronounced by the commission as fully
covered by existing statutes. 1t sim
ply becomes question of enforcement
of the law
But the question before you is not
of that character. 1t is that of the
power TO name a rate upon the part of
the commission after complaint and
