 The demonstration occurred at the end of his second explanation. During the
 succeeding debate, the leaders of the
 constitutional democrats and of the
 group of toll, got together and agreed
 on, the text of the following resolu-
 tion which was adopted almost unani-
 mously:
 'eFhe lower House of Parliament, finding that relief of the famine strick- en popula sion has been prevented in the past by the intervention by the Minis try on political grounds and will be so in future so long as the present irre- sponsibie ministry is in power, finds It necessary to organize assistance through public establishments and en- trusts the Agrarian Commission with the elaboration cf plan of relief un-
 der thorough parliamentary control ;" The Minister after the vote left the hall amid renewed cribs of Resign" Clear Out"
 MMuch indignation is expressedesfn parliamentary circles at the. publlca- ton of the report made to War Min
 ister Rudiger by General Rader, the former commandant of the Biaiystok
 garrison, reiterating the charges that the Jews were responsible for the mas
 sacres by throwing bombs and firing re- volvers at orthodox proccssions and attacking Government buildings after order had been restored. General Ra- der also charact si izes the conduct Of the troops as splendid and says the
 newspaper account of the excesses are deliberate lies.

FOUGHT MAD DOE.
Miss Zehden Has Thrilling Encounter
 With an AntusuI


 Paul Smiths. N. Y, June 25.-Miss Celia Zehden had an exciting battle with a maddened doe in the park of Thomas Blagden. near this place. yes- ierday By her heroism she saved Miss Lydia Davidson. daughter of George Law Davidson. of New York, from se- rfous injury.
 The girls were walking through the park to i'll some water bottles when the doe bounded out upon them. She made for Miss Davidson, attacking the young woman with her sharp hoofs.
 Miss Zehden rushed to her friends rescue, striking the doe on the head with the water bottle. It turned on her and Miss Davidson ran screaming from the park calling for help. The doe pushed Miss zehden back into tho underbrush, tearing her clothes to rih- boLs and almost felling her several times. Miss zehden rained many blows on its head with the water bottle. Al this 1uncture some men arrived and drove off the enraged animal.
 Miss Zehden tainted from the des- perate encounter and is prostrated. Her hands were badly torn and her body was covered with bruises. Miss Davidson is none the worse for the en- counter.

when we will come again, and isn't 1t too bad to have to go away without even seeing the presidentf"
 From what Congressman say the President is not overly pleased with the proposition to pay his travelling ex- penses when he takes a swing around the circle. There has been some talk that he would not accept the favor or the legislators, but it Is known that many of the leading Republicans have advised him that if It Is the sense of Congress that the President should be allowed the money he ought to have no hssitancy in accepting 1t.
 Tn political circles generally 1t IS thought that at the coming Democratic convection in Pennsylvania the Dem ocrats will endorse Lew Emory for Governor of the Keystone State. The Lincoln Republicans who have nomi- mated him helped the Democrats last year to elect MT. Berry State Treas urer, and 1t Is thought that turn about is fair play. Colorel Guffey. the ruling spirit at present of the Pennsylvania Democracy. It is understood, IS willing that a fusion ticket should be agreed uron. If the plan can he carried out the prevailing belief here Is that Sem ator Penrose and the old Quay ma chine will have a hard time to pull their ticket through.

MARKET FOR COTTON
SHARP BREAK AFTER STEADY EARLY
 SESSION.
Values Give Way Under Talk of Heavy Ju ' Notices and Declines of to Is Points are Shown at the
 Close

New York. June 2B-The cotton market broke sharply after 8 steady early session under talk of heavy July notices and closed at a net decline of b912 points. Sales es- timated at 300.000 bales. The opening was steady at unchanged prices to an advance of one point. more liberal response to the relatively firm Liverpool cables being pre- vented by reports of rain in Texas Sunday. But 1t appeared that these rains had been insufficient to materially relieve the drought and with Liverpool a good buyer the market worked up to a net advance of O 10 points At the advance offerings increased owing to the forecast calling for further showers in Texas and prices sagged back a few pointsbut showed little sign of weakness nn- til after a circular, issued by the leader of the May pool had been issued. statjCe that the pool intended to deliver about 4S.000 bales remaining. of the May cotten on JulY contracts.

SMITH TELLS
 OF THE WORK What Bureau of Cor porations IS Doing. MUCH MONEY WILL BE NEEDED Many Subjects Are to Be Taken
 Up This Year. Investigation of Steel Industry Com ducted at Little Expense to the
 Government as Figures Were
 Furnished by Company.
MUCH MONEY WILL BE NEEDED

Washington. June 25.--An outline of the work of the bureau of corpora tions has been given the House appro- priations committee by Herbert Knox Smith. deputy commissioner. in urging that the unexpended balance of $Te.- 900 for the current year be made avail able for the work of next year.
 Possibly you may remembers he said. when I appeared before the com mittee last year. we had in mind in- vestfeation- of steel. completion of the beef investigation. investigation of oil, sugar and tobacco. The steel inves- tigation was quite inexpensive, be- cause we were furnished the work by the United States steel corporation and as yet we have had to expend almost nothing.
 "The sugar investigation we had to hold up and part of the tobacco in vestigation. because of the immunity decision, until 1t was determined just how we stood on that matter. Then, when the special development came out in regard to the discrimination m the Transportation of oil the attention of the entire bureau had to be given to that and we couid not really unaer take another Investigation at tnat time.
 .sThe past two years have been ab- normal because it is new bureau anu we have run up against these ieka 1 questions like the immunity quesuor and we feel now that those questions are settled and we can get the bureau organized SO that we can handle ths work and will need all the money estf. mated to carry on tho work started and held up."
 Could spcnd s2oo,ooo. Representative LAttauer--You think 1 that you can expend $200,o00? a l Mir. Smith--Yes. sir: If we carry oui the work we intend to do we shall The steel work Is a vast job and wher
 we get our men working, instead oi ] having the United States Steel Cor I poration furnish the figures. 1t is go I ing to be very expensive and similar I ly with the tobacco and sugar investi- l gations."
 Representative Brundidge-Did the United States steel Corporation do ths l work that your men should have done Is that corporation supplying you with | information upon which to make prop.
 CT investigation?
 1 Mir. Smith--Yes. sir: they furnished us with lot of statistics in regard tc l the cost of various kinds of produc- tion. Then we have the right to gr 1 to their books and check the figures 1 up. That has saved us great deal of work and we get it in much better shane"
 | Mir Littauer--They submit the fig ures for you to check up instead o
 your going to their books and taking
 them? Ass Mir. Smlth-Yes, sir. Then we will l take up the whole steel industry, no merely the steel corporation, and tha
 will take lot of money.

GRAIN MONOPOLY
LaFOLLETTE WANTS A GOVERN
 MENT INVESTIGATION.
Ns0u4d Extend Scope of the Inquiry Now Being Conducted by Com- naeree Commission under the
 TiElmam Resolution.

Washington. June 25-Mr LaFolIettc today called up his resolution extend sii,g the scope of the inquiry now be ing conducted by the Interstate Com Gillespie resolution, so as to have 1t include the transportation and storage of grains.
 Speaking in support of the resolu- tion he said the country had been agtounded at the revelations that had been made in the matter of the com bination between the coal producing industry and the railroads and he felt satisfied that the prosecution of the in- qurv would show as bad a condition in the grain business. He asserted that corruption had been uncovered at every place where inquiry had been. and as- serted that 'the whole system is perule- ated with fraud" In support of his contentious he said that testimony ta- ken by the Commission indicated q joint ownership between the railroads and the elevator companies to the de- triment of the farmers who are enti- tied to a free and open market. He tken gave the names of individuals and corporations which had secured such inside privileges as to give them mon- opolies along various Western railroad lines. the list given including the fol- lowing:
 The Chicago and Rock Island to Charles Counselman.
 The Chicago. Milwaukee and St Paul to the Armour Elevator Company, The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, to tho Richardson Company.
 The Union Pacific to the Peavv Ele- vator Company
 Chicago and Northwestern to the Bartlett and Frazier Elevator company
 Chicago, Burlington and Quincy to the Armour Elevator Company
 As going to conflrm his differences of a combination, Mir. LaFollette said that the head of the Armour Elevator Company is a large stockholder and a director of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul. He then read number of letters and quoted various statennents to show that the ranroad companies favor some elevators to which they are friendly and discriminate against oth CTS which are not so we'll regarded by them. with the result that the prica of wheat to the producers Is far below what 1t should he.
 He declared i1 conclusion that prac- tically all the grain shipped into Chi cego over any one line goes to one dealer and expressed the opinion that these wholesale dealers are closely allied among themselves, thus consti- tuting a virtual monopoly of the en- tire gran business or the country.
 Senator Nelson confirmed the state ments of Mir LaFolette. saying that he lad personal knowledge of many in stances oe ditcriminations by the rail- roads in favor of line elevators He had no doubt he said, that investIga- tion would show. the saine combtna ton between the railroad companies and the elevator companies that had been found 10 exist between the rail- road and the coal companies,
 The resolution was then adopte5 without division.

1t is old wool redressed by scientific
and clean methods. 1t is a component
Of most of the woolen garments of to-
day. The world does not grow enough
wool to enable us to have a constant
supply of new woolen garments except
with the aid of shoddy. 1t is shoddy
that has enabled the workingman to
buy new suit of clothes at the price
Of weeks wage. In the olden days
an old all woolen garment was so ex-
pcnsive that it had to last it's owner
many years unless he were a wealthy
man. 1t is better hygiene for a man
to buy two new shoddy suits a year
than to buy an all wool garment which
must last him two years. Most of the
clothes we wear, in fact, contain an
element of shoddy and, SO far from be-
ing the worse for it, are the BETTER

Tearing Cards.

To tear pack of cards in two is re-
garded by some as a marvellous feat of
strength, and yet the trick is possible
to any one with fairly strong fingers.
The secret of the trick lies in the fact
that the entire pack is not torn at once,
but in pretending to get a grip on the
pack the strong man so manipulates
the cards that they overlap. In this
way but single card is torn at a time,
and once the surface is torn the rest is
easy. To any one who can hold pack
Of cards firmly the trick is fairly easy,
and while in olden times single pack
of cards was considered to be the limit
Of strength many of our strong men
tear three and four packs at a time.
The cards are restored to their origi-
nal form before being given out for
examination, and SO the trick escapes
detection.
