NO BLAME FIXED
Reno Killing Remains a Mystery to
the Law

The coroner's jury practically ex-
onerated Stewart Carter yesterday
from any connection with the killing
of Bob Marris, better known as Tom
Hampton, who was shot last Friday
afternoon in the U and l saloon.
The verdict brought in last night
after the voluminous testimony o1
Saturday, was reread to the witnesses
and subscribed to by them was:
Eve the jury find that Bob Morris
came to his death from receiving qua
snot wounds, one of which caused his
death, fired by some person or perso IS
unknown to this jury.
And it looks at present as though
this will complete the effeort to I'M
ravel the mystery of the killing e
Tom Hampton:
It is certain that 41-calibre pistol
was the weapon that was used by the
man who shot Hampton; it is cec-
tain from the testimony adduced 4

CAN'T AGREE on MEAT BILL.
Senate Conferees Insist on Making the
Packers Pay for Inspection.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-All the points Of
controversy between the Senate and the
House on the Agricult ural Appropriation
bill, excepting those volved in the meat
inspection amendment, were adjusted to-
day at meetings Of the joint conference
committee.
The meat inspection amendment was
considered and will be taken up again at a
meeting Of the conferees tomorrow morn
ing, at which, according to an understand
ing when the conference committee adj
joErned, it will be decided to report back
to the Senate and the House the meat in
spection amendment with a request for
/ Instructions as to the degree of concessions
which each set of conferees may make
upon this important subject.
In the discussion Of the meat inspection
provision to-day it was made apparent
that the Senate representatives would not
agree to the Hous amendment providing
that the Government should pay the cost
of inspection and that the date OF canning
should not be placed upon the labels affixed
to each can Of prepared meat. While there
is a general understanding that the inspec-
ton amendment will be enacted into law
In some shape or other the situation sur

STANDARD PENSIONED A RIVAL.
Paid Dealer AT, 900 q Year for Not Doing
business in Washington.

WASHINGTON, June 28.-Lawrence Nicolai,
formerly proprietor Of the National Oil
Company in this city, testified to-day before
the referee in bankruptcy that the Standard
Oil Company paid him an annual pension
Of $4,000 from 1895 to January of 1905 for
refraining from selling oil and gasolene
in the District OF Columbia.
Nicolai says he vent into bankruptcy be-
cause when the Standard company ceased
paying him the $1,000 a year it had gained
such a strong hold and had so lowered the
price OF oil in Washington, making the diff
ference up in Baltimore, that when he re-
sumed business he failed completely.
1t is said by Nicolai that the Home and
Columbia Oil companies in this city, which
are advertised as independents not In the
rust are controlled by the Standard.
Nicolai AYERS that there are a number
of small dealers in Washington who have
recently gone out of business but are
receiving a pension from the Standard.
Nicolai has been summoned as a witness to
testify before the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, now at New Orleans, on June %.

and Francis NJ. Cockrell OF Missouri.
This would make a commission composed
of four Republicans and three Democrats.
The Re republicans ire Mess n. Knapp, Prouty,
Harla n and Clark.
II has become known here that the Presl-
dent, or those acting for him, made inquiries
TO learn whether the nominations Of Messrs.
Harlan, Clark and Lane would be satisfac-
tory to the Senate. Mr.. Lanes nomination
was held up primarily for the reason that
his appointment as a Democrat would give
that party dominance in the commission
With the commission made up as above
opposition to the nomination OF Mr.. Lane,
according to the responses made to the in
ouiries, will be withdrawn. AS far as can
be learned no objection has been offered
either to the nomination of Mr.. Clark or
Mr.. Harlan.
If the commission Is composed as above
indicated, and the understanding here
is that it will be, every section Of the country
except the extreme Southwest will be rep
resented.
Mr.. Harlan is we'll known. He has been
prominent in the politics OF Chicago for
for Mayor on the Republican ticket. Mr..
Lane is a lawyer and an expert on the sub:
iect Of TRANSPORTATION. Mr.. Clark Is one Of
the best known labor leaders in the country
and was a member Of the anthracite coal
commission
Judge S. X. Cowan of Texas has been
prominently mentioned in connection with
an Interstate Commerce commissionership'
In the event that the Senate refused to con
firm Mr.. Lane the President, it is said, would
probably name Judge Cowan.
Under the new rate law each Interstate
Commerce COMMISSIONS will get $4,000

House to-day and passed undo a rule which
irreverent members, not having the fear OF

lied as "a bird" whatever that may mean,
The rule was reported by Mr. Dalzell,
and provided for the disposition Of the bill
under the rules governing a motion to sus-
pend the rules and pass the bill, with the
exception that a decisive vote should be a
majority only, instead of two-thirds.
Upon a demand for the previous question
on the adoption Of the rule on principle

but was able to rally only a faithful score
in opposition. 1t was ordered, 1893 to 81,

was agreed to.

CITY BANK TO GET IT'S RENT.
House Votes 100000 for Old Custom
House Despite Suffers Protest.

hAo"'o
WASHINGTON, June 28.-There was a re-
newal in the Hous Of Representatives
to-day OF the agitation over the National
City Bank-Custom House contract. The
General Deficiency bill carries an item
of $3.50, 600 to pay the bank the rental for the
Custom House property for the year 1905,
which Congress last year refused to appro-
pirate. Mr.. Sulzer made a point of order
against the item, which was ~overruled. He
then moved to strike the item from the
bin, and said:
The whole matter Is a swindle and a dis
grace, first. upon the taxpayers OF the United
States and, secondly. upon the taxpayers OF
the city of New York. The Government ia
cheated out Of the property and the National
City Bank. a Standard OIL bank, gets this
valuable piece OF property in Wall street in
the city Of New York for practically nothing.
and the fact Is that property Is worth to-day
over $4,000. 900.
At the same time the bank defrauds the tax
payers of the city OF New York out OF the taxes
nd has been defrauding them out Of the Ia xes
ever since 1900.
last year the Republicans were q little
more virtuous than they are this year and
they could not stand for this swindle. This
year, however. in view OF the approaching
congressional campaign. they are willing to
subnit to the fraud and vote a way the peoples
money.
Mr.. Fitzgerald-The House struck this
particular item from the appropriation
Bill last year, and l hope 1t will not fail to do
so this year.
Mr.. Littauer-The House last year was
not the same House that it is now.
Mr.. Fitzgerald-Oh, yes lit was the same
House, the same Republican House.
Mr.. Sutherland it will not be the same
House next year, if you keep, on voting the
peoples money to the Standard Oil trust.
IA,rlo,oa and auphtar
Mr.. Fitzgerald said there was some change
in the units, but it was the same House,
and the House on full consideration did
refuse to vote the rent for this year:
But they voted, SO to e5. as they did two
weeks ago, and refused to strike the item
out Of the bill.
