HEPBURN EFFIGIES STIR EN-.
Iowa Incident Is Laid at Door Of the
Chicago Tribune.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 9.-The
hanging of Representative Pete" Hep
burn in effigy in Iowa and Maryland
has caused a good deal of talk in tn.
capital city. 1t is not known what
provoked the Maryland people, but it
is asserted that the Iowa folks were in
cited by the Chicago Tribune, which
has been making a bitter fight on Hep
burn for some weeks. 1t is stated that
J. w. Blythe has nothing whatever
to do with the drafting of the Hepburn
railway rate bill and that Blythe could
not draw a bill of this kind if he were
to try.
Hepburn worked on the details Of
his bill in Washington for a number Of
weeks before introducing it and wrote
and rewrote it at least a dozen times
before it went to congress. He has
given the question of railroad regula-
ton careful study and nobody here
believes that he was influenced by any
improper motives in anything which
he did in mis- preparation of his bill.

Jefferson Davis elected an attack from
General J. A. Chalaron, keeper of the
confederate records and of the confed-

general with perversion of facts.
General Chalaron produced a pho
tograph of President Davis, taken just
before his incarceration, showing him
emaciated and almost tottering with
illness He produced a written state
ment from Davis, wherein he declared
that to place him in shackles had been
useless and a deliberate affront and in
suit. Mr.. Davis quoted Secretary
Dana as saying he never could have
escaped even without shackles.
General Chalaron said the evidence
in his possession entirely disaproved
the truth of General Miles explana-
ton. 1t is probable the confederate as
sociations will take the matter up.

Much has been written about Geo
Smith, "Pittsburg Phil who died
Wednesday morning at Asheville, n.
c.. Few men have had so interesting
a career as he. and everywhere he
was known as a man of great nerve.
One incident in his life will serve to
show Smiths remarkable nerve.
March II. 1897, he occupied a ring seat
at the tt-F'itzsimmons fight in
Carson City. 1t was at the end of the
fifth round; the Cornishman was then
bleeding from the incessant jabbing
handed out by Corbett. To the I'M
biased critic it looked as though Fitz
could scarcely last more than two or
three additional rounds. Men were go
ing around with punches of money Of
fering $1,000 to $500 on Corbett. With
everything apparently against him, ex-
cepting his own judgment and conf
dence in the lanky Cornishman, Smith
jumped to his feet and yelled: 4 take

SOUTH DIVORCE REFORM LAWS.
Texas and Missouri Legislatures Have
Bills On Subject.

AUSTIN. Texas, Feb. 9.-The sem
ate of the Texas legislature has
passed an anti divorce bill which. if it
becomes a law. will do much toward
ending the divorce scandal in this
state. The measure prohibits a mar
riage within three years on the part
of the person complained of in the pro-
ceedings. and the plaintiff must not
marry within year from the date Of
the divorce. 1t is provided that if
the defendant is not present in person
he or she may have a new trial within
a year after the decree is granted. 1t
also is required that statement OF
facts and conclusion of law be filed in
each case For disobedience of any OF
these provisions penalty of from two
to five years in the penitentiary is pro-
vided.
Although the house has killed
several anti-divorce bills during the
last week it is believed the bill which
has been approved by the senate will
pass the house,

T|LLY DOnS 1 STRIPED SUIT
OEFAULTiNG TREASURER OF no.
GUAM BROUGHT TO STATE
PRISON YESTERDAY.
Many Friends Brought to Financial
Ruin in an Effort to Save
Maynard Man.

Fred G. Tilly, the embezzling treas
urer of Hoquaim, sentenced to two
years in the state prison, was re-
ceived at the penitentiary yesterday
afternoon. lilly was brought over in
company with D. H. Stevens, sentenced
to two years for adultery and Ed s.
Eisenburg, sentenced to two years for
forgery. The trio were in charge Of
Sheriff Graham and: one guard.
. The arrival of young Tilly at the
prison marks the last scene in a
dramatic episode in which friends
and relatives brought themselves to
financial ruin in an effort to save the
young man from a felon's cell. Tilly
was one of the bright young men Of
Hoquiam, two years ago. He was
honored and respected to such an ex-
tent that when he sought the Office of
city treasurer he was elected by a
handsome majority. Things went
swimmingly for a time until rumors of
late suppers, women and a tendency
to lead a fast life began to be circu-
lated about the young treasurer.
1t was not long until lilly was set
ting the pace that demanded more
than his monthly salary to keep up and
then he began borrowing from the
citys money. On investigation of his
affairs was begun and lilly took re-
fuge in flight. He was caught in CAL
ifornia after two weeks chase and
returned to Hoquiam. Then it was
that friends and relatives came to his
rescue and spent money like water
in an effort to save him. His pecula-
lions had been too great, however, and
they were forced to witness his con-
viction and subsequent sentencing to
the state penitentiary.

SUE MENNONITES FOR MILLIONS.
Iowa City Judge Orders An Action
Against Society In Texas.

IOWA CITY. Iowa. Feb. "a sem
satfonal. suit has been sprung against
the Amana Mennonite society. Judge
S. H. Fairall of Iowa City, in behalf
of taxpayers, alleges that the Organi-
zation is one of the greatest commu-
nistic bodies in the United States not
paving taxes AS result of this
complaint Judge Byington of Iowa
City has ordered County Attorney
Wallace to bring an action involving
from two mill on to four million dol
lars.
The complaint alleges that the socie-
ty is organized for social and frater-
nal purposes and is now violating the
code of Iowa in reference to the
wrongful exercise of corporate powers,
following manufacturing and agricul-
tural pursuits for mercenary gains.
The suit resembles the famous Nor
mon church and Pullman Car company
cases and will cost the Menonnonltes
a small fortune if they lose it.

best friends, says the Spokane Chroni-
Gle. He is fast-lightning fast-anj
the way he works when he dons the
gloves is sure indication that
Jerry Mccarthy will run up against
the hardest proposition he has had in
this city.
Reilly has always been known to
carry a good punch, but his speed is
the element that attracts attention in
his training. He puts on the gloves
with all Corners. works fast and hard,
but never appears to tire. Reilly put
up great fight against Burrows, but
h was not then in condition. He is in
fine shape now and looks better than
he has at any time he has been in this
city
Jerry Mccarthy is also working
hard He puts on the gloves with two
or three men every day. besides fight
ing the sandbag and doing a great deal
of road work Mccarthy is preparing
for this battle with all possible care
and there is no reason why the two
men should not put up a great fight.

Crush at BROOKLYN Bridoe,

Women tainted and a score of men
were knocked down last night in the
worst crush seen at the Brooklyn
bridge in long time, says the New
York Herald. Twenty police reserv-
es, besides the regular force, helpless
to control the crowd by ordinary
means, used their clubs freely until
the thousands packed into the Man
haitian terminal and outside in Park
row were on the verge of a panic.
Breaking of draw bar on one of
the local bridge trains was the cause
of the block, which lasted from $50
o'clock until almost $50, and it was
o'clock before anything like normal
traffic was restored.
With nothing to interfere with the
free passage of trains and cars across
the bridge at this hour it is hard to
handle the crowds who use the bridge
When all train traffic was stopped and
| the trolley car lines became democrat
,zed through the crushing of thousands
| on to surface tracks the crowd be
came so dense that a hurry call was
sent for police aid.
Even with nearly 80 policemen using
| their utmost endeayors it was with
great difficulty that panic was avert
| ed. After the break had been repair
ed it required nearly an hour to cleal
| away the crowd that packed the ter
minal.
