Washington, June 23.-That there is
provision of the agricultural appropri
alton bill as it came from the house
is the opinion of Senator Bailey as ex-
pressed in the senate today, when con-
sideration of Proctor's motion to send
the bill to conference was resumed.
He based his criticism on the clause
relating to the inspection of stock en-
tering the packing houses, saying that
it gives the police a supervision thar
the federal government cannot exer-
else. He suggested that the provision
should be made to read so as to make
it unlawful to transport from one state
to another any beef or beef products
that have not been inspected as pro-
vided for by the law. He argued that
the provision, as it stands, is not so
constitutional provision concerning in
terstate commerce.
Beveridge said that under the form
suggested by Bailey the inspection
would still have to be conducted at the
packing houses, and urged that the
change would not alter the case. The
interests of the cattle grower were pre-
sented by Warren. He contended that
the government should pay the cost
of inspection. Replying to numerous
Interruptions, Warren said it was ar
rant nonsense to say that future con-
crosses will not be wise enough to deal
with the increased expenses out Of in
pected the future members Of the sem
ate to be as wise as himself, and all
most as wise as the senator from In-
diana (Beveridge).

MINORITY is pIscoNcERTED.
Cochran Successfully Defends Pure
Food Bill Against Democratic At

Washington, June pa speech by
Bourke Cochran in the house yester-
day, defending the pure food bill
against the attacks Of democratic
/; champions of state rights has split wide
open the ranks of the minority AMI
makes it apparent that the measure
will be passed practically in the form
it came from the interstate and for
eign commerce committee.
Mr.. Cockran's remarks came out in
a heated colloquy with Representative
Sullivan of Massachusetts, who con-
tended that the states had ample power
to enforce pure food regulations and
that the supreme court had said IN
nulnberless cases that congress could
not deprive the states of their police
powers. He cited the pure food laws
of Massachusetts as evincing the de-
sire of legislatures TO take care of the
question along their own lines.
Mr.. Cochran called attention to the
case of Illinois, which, he said, had q
law relating to the inspection of
slaughter houses but which had delib-
erately permitted the circulation IN
other states of food products dangerous
to public health. He then asked: rs
there no law in the federal governmen,
to save the people of the other states
from their danger?
Il believe in the absolute autonomy,
of the state in dealing with everything
that concerns the people OF that state
exclusively. It's police power is unlinl-
ited its rights to regulate the move
Inents of every citizen inside it's bor-
ders cannot be questioned: but when
any action of that state. whether it be
permissive or directory empowers a
citizen Of it to affect the condition of
people in another state by circula ting
in the channels of commerce anything
dangerous to their health and to their
welfare, there is no excuse for the ex-
istence of federal government If it
does not prevent the precise condition.
1t must step in and say: All the pow
ers of the state you may use as you
please inside your own borders, bur
you must use them with due regard to
the rights of others when anything
sanctioned by your laws passes beyond
your borders and affects their daily
lives"

Strong Effort Made to Fasten the Guils
of Her Daughters Murder, June 8, on
Mrs. stenton, of New York-Dramat
ic Scenes at coroner's Inquiry.

/ New York. June 23.-Dramatic scenes
attended todays proceedings at the
coroner's inquiry into the death of
Mrs. Alice D. Kinan, who was beaten
| to death at the home of her mother on
the night of June 5. Mrs. Stenton, the
aged mother of the murdered woman,
was under examination by Coroner
Mcdonald when he suddenly asked
her:
is not this the hammer with which
you killed Alice? 2" at the same time
exhibiting the weapon.
How dare you suggest that 1 killed
my daughter?" cried the witness, her
eyes flashing and her body shaking
with anger. Il know nothing about the
hammer, and don't know how it came
to be hidden in my room. l never saw
it before
AT another point during the examin-
alton Mrs. 'Stenton started to leave the
room, but was persuaded to resume
her seat.
You've got to tell us all you know
about this case" she was told by AS
sistant District Attorney Cardoza.
Il don't know anything about it,"
retorted Mrs. Stenton
did you do it?" asked Cardoza,
shaking finger in her face.
NO" she shrieked. why don't you
kill me, instead of asking me all these
questions
These outbursts on the part of the
witness came at the end of two hours
of vigorous cross examination. She had
answered every question without hesi-
tation, but threw very little new light
upon the case.

Fake Contests.
Probably the county seat of Carroll
county never saw SO much turmoil and
strife or ever witnessed such a strenu-
Gus political campaign as that today.
The brazen manner in which Ben
Salinger attempted to deliver the con-
vention to Ed Hunter had aroused tha
voters of the county to high pitch Of
Indignation and the result was that
Cummins carried the county, having
122 of the 1877 delegates. At an early
hour the streets of Carroll began to fill
up with delegates and visitors from
the county and they came with the
determination to Illustrate the brazen
attempt to steal the convention. They
wore Cummins badges and shouted for
Cummins. Had not the trick of the
Salinger faction been known to every
one, the visitor to- the county seat
would have had difficulty to believe
that there was any contest.
Salinger and a few of the Perkins
flying squadron who had been brought
here for the purpose, had trumped up
faxed contests on paper without the
actual contesting delegations being
present. Admission was by ticket and
lolo 1,1l I1
MED tickets. About II o'clock the dell
egatiom from Union township went
down to the convention hall, and with
several delegates from other precincts
were refused admission. Previously
Salinger had sent up to the hall
number of tough looking citizens with
out tickets. 1t was the intention to use
them as guards. When the Union dele
CATION attempted to gain admission the
guards demanded their tickets and
were told they had none. They were
told they could nor enter. Then the
delegates went, back and, headed by
A. C. Steel and others, again demand

On seeing that the game which they
had fixed up to keep the crowd out of
the hall had failed Korte pulled the
following typewriter statement from
his pocket and proceeded to read it
to the conventions
II must decline to open the republic
