CITY FIGHTS
CHICAGO AND ITS STREET CAR
COMPANY IN ACTIVE
WARFARE

Chicago, jan IT, DR.. Maurice F.
Doty, traction expert for the city of
Chicago, today peremptorily stopped
traffic on the two cable lines running
on Wabash avenue and State street.
owned by the Chicago City Railway
Co.
Lives of Patrons In Danger.
The reason given by Doty for the
stoppage is that the lives of passen-
gers are imperilled by the fact that
the gates on the left side cars are
left open while they traverse two
squares on Wabash avenue between
Randolph and Madison streets. This
action of the city is generally thought
to be the first of the active measures
to be taken against the street car
company A few days ago the compa-
ny declared to the city that it would
not accept the franchise extension or.
dinance now pending before the city
council.
President Mitten, Of the railroad
company, held a conference with the
mayor over the matter and it was
agreed to take it up later for settle
ment and the mayor issued an order
which allowed the cars to resume run
ming. The tis UP lasted more than
two hours.

LoH MONUMENT ARGUMENTS
BY IoWANs

Washington, D. G., Jan. 17.-(spe-
ciaD Senators Allison and Dolliver,
Secretary Shaw and Congressman
Smith presented the Shiloh monument
case to Secretary Taft for two hours
this forenoon The Iowans all talked
and Mr.. Shaw made a particularly
Impressive argument. Secretary Taft
said he saw no reason why the inscrip.
tions in the form acceptable to the
veterans should not be placed on the
monument in memory Of the Fifteenth
and Sixteenth regiments at Shiloh. He
did not give any formal decision, but
from the remarks at the conference it
is thought that no further action will
be necessary. Taft reserved the issue
of the final order for few days. If
denied the matter goes to congress.
The situation is satisfactory to the
delegation from Iowa.

PANIC AT
CAPITOL
SUPPOSED INSANE MAN THREAT.
EMS TO DYNAMITE lowA's
STATE HOUSE

Des Moines, Jan. II. - David s..
Clayman Of Fontanelle created a SEN
sation at the capitol late yesterday
afternoon by threatening to blow up
the state house with dynamite unless
given job as doorkeepe Z the SEN
ate.
for recognition that the poFto were
called and he was lodged irs jail.
Starts Sensational Reports.
/ The Incident gave rise to many SEN
sational stories, among them one that
Clayman had made desperate at
tempt to kill Governor Cummins, and
that he had drawn q revolver on sSey-
eral of the state house attaches. These
stories were much exaggerated, how
ever. He declared he was going to kill
the governor, Senator Dowell and Rep
resentative Teachout. He did not see
the governor and when searched no
weapon of any kind was found upon
him. and he had only a few clippings
from newspapers. He displayed no
revolver or other weapon at the capi-
tol.
Clayman has been about the state
house for several days. He has in
sisted that he was entitled to pub
lie place, having served the state for
twelve years. He referred to the fact
that he spent twelve years in prison.
He attempted to see the governor yes
terday. but was induced to leave the
Office. He told some of the office at
taches that he understood that an ef-
fort would be made to keep him from
seeing the executive and that such a
situation should not be. He meant to
threaten, undoubtedly. but displayed
no inclination to force his way at the
time.

Des Moines, Jan. IL.
The absorbing topic of conversation
among the members of the legislature
today is the republican caucus to be
held tonight.
candidates for state printer and bind
Ier. The republican caucus committee
Is controlled by the English -Chassell
combination. It called an early eau
Gus to get the question out of the
way Of the legislature as it was plain
that until the printer and binder fight
was settled the term extension bust
ness could not be attended to.
The Murphy-Te combination,
which is interested in securing sew
enth year for the incumbent printer
apd binder propose that the caucus
tonight vote to postpone the selection
Of printer and binder until the legis-
lature shall have voted on the PROPOSE
tion to extend the terms of Murphy
iand Tedford one year.
a Complicated Affair.
NJ j. M. Anderson of Indianola, who is
IA candidate for printer and w. F. Par
rott who will be candidate for binder
in 1907 II the selection slated for to-
night can be postponed and the terms
of the incumbents extended are work
ing with the Murphy Tedford combin-
alton.
This leads the English -Chassell com.
bination to the belief that the whole
fight hinges on what is done tonight.
If the republican caucus selects Eng
lish and Chassell as the candidates
the joint convention of the houses will
elect, but the friends of Murphy and
Tedford hope to be able to prevent the
convention being called OF this,
English and Chassell have little fear.
Senate Against Joint Session.
1t Is practically admitted that if the
resolution to call the joint convention
to elect printer and binder is beat
en- it will be by the senate and that
the house will pass it by large MS
jority. This would mean that the bill
to extend the terms Of the printer and
!, hinder would be defeated in the house
s&hat the Murphy-T edford- Anderson
Py rbtt combination would accomplish
nothing after all
But If the caucus tonight selects
English and Chassell as the candidates
of the party for the two appointive Of
fees in the state, then the question
will be settled, it is believed and there
will be no further fighting despite the
hope Of preventing the election.
