NEW LIVESTOCK MEASURE.
Senate Extends Time of Keeping AMI.
mails in Cars.

WASHINGTON, June by a vote
of 54 to the Senate today decided to
consider the bill extending from TWEEN
ty-eight to thirty-six hours the time
that livestock may be kept in cars
without unloading. The passage of the
bill was advocated by Senator Warren.
who said that under its terms the time
can only be extended on the written
application of the owners of the stock
in transit and that often unloading Is
more harmful to stock than to extend
for few hours the time of their con-
finement,
The bill was opposed by Senators
Lodge, Scott and Spooner. who con-
tended that an extension of time would
work cruelty. Scott expressed the opin-
ion that in view of the present agi-
tation of the fresh meat question 1t
is not wise to give further occasion for
criticism
Senator Bailey advocated the passage
of the bill. saying that 1t is impossi-
BILE to enforce the existing law and that
the President had directed that the law
be suspended during the present Con
gress.
According to the view of Senator
Carter, self-interest would impel ship
pers to protect their stock, and he de-
clared they would take proper care OF
them in the absence of any law on the
subject.
Senator Patterson declared it the
height OF absurdity as well as of cru
city to unload stock within a few hours
of their destination. He said that wild
cattle could not be driven out of or
into cars without great inhumanity.
Speaking from practical experience
Senator Ankeney expressed the opinion
that the bill would result beneficially
In his remarks Senator Lodge ex-
pressed the opinion that the House
fwould have done well to legislate on
the alleged packing house abuses with
out discussion as the Senate had done
Senator Warren protested against
the connection of the cattle raisers
with the packers, saying the former
have far more to- complain of as against
the packers than have the public al
large.
Lodge said that the Chicago packers
were standing in their own light ir
trying to prevent legislation
'If they had not been absolutely stu
pehed by greed he said. they would
have welcomed inspection that would
assist them in reaching the markets OF
the world
Senator Hopkins declared that the
Chicago packers we're not obstructins
| legislation: that they will welcome
any inspection or anything that will
stop the hysteria that is sweeping ovel
the world"
The bill was then passed without di.

Student and Sailor Meet Death
by Wreck Of the
Corinthian.
Seven Of the Crew Are Saved
After Long Hours
Of Toll.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

EUREKA. June 12.-The gasoline
scbooner Corinthian, which was struck
by the sea and driven on the beach last
night will be a total wreck. Two men
were killed and two of the rescued
have broken legs. Those of the crew
WIN were saved have a very unpleas-
ant memory of their experiences. WORD
of the wreck reached Eureka at
o'clock last night and the life savers
went out. All night the rescuers
worked, but it was four this morning
before Captain Atwater was taken
ashore. He was the last man on board
to leave. He chung to the rigging all
night with the seas breaking over him
constantly.
The first man TO lose his life by the
wreck was Andrew McCarey, a stu
dent of Berkeley, who had shipped az
cooks helper. He was in the galley
when q wave struck the vessel and it is
believed he was carried overheard at
that time At any rate he has not been
seen since. The other man who lost
his life was Ole Carlson, a sailor who
was drowned in the breakers. When
the vessel struck the beach her deck
load of lumber went into the sea and
two men working in the surf endeav-
oring to save the men on the Corinth-
ian sustained broken legs by being
struck by the lumber as 1t was tossed
about the vessel.
When the tide receded today the Co.
was almost entirely out of wa
ter. She cannot be saved, but her ma
probably will be taken out She
lies on the peninsula shore about mile
above Humboldt Bay entrance and six
miles from Eureka.
The wreck was caused by the fact
that the bar was rough and the vessel
was not sufficiently powerful to make
headway and escape the rollers. Size
was bound for San Francisco.
McCarey, one of the men who IS: his
life. was only in Eureka short time.
He claimed to have been shanghaied at
San Francisco and brought here as
sailor on the steamship North Fork.

Paid to Wear Diamonds.
n the Chlcago Tribune.

From the Chicago Tribune
There are many men in Chicago who
are paid to wear diamonds. The men
that are paid to wear diamonds are paid
in the hope their example will be followed
by others and that in the spread of the
diamond carrying habit the original payer
will get his return.
The business of selling diamonds out
side of stores is large one, and one Of
the means that the sellers use to attract
the buyers is the display of diamonds
upon the hands of their agents. They
equip with a diamond ring Il man whom
they know has large circle of friends
and acquaintance. Sometimes they
make him a present of the ring More
often-for it is not their policy to give
much away-they sell the wearer the
ring at greatly reduced price. He in
return is expected to interest his friends
in the stone.
Often the agent is given stone to
wear and he is instructed to tell his
friends that the diamond belongs to him.
but that he is willing to sell it. The UNI
suspectng acquaintance, thinking that
he will get better bargain than he could
secure at shop, buys the diamond The
agent usually has to, get his commission
out of the sale price. One man of whom
several of the local diamond brokers have
knowledge has sold diamonds to twenty
seven of his friends
Many men who do not give all their
time to the diamond business deal in dia-
monds as a side line. There are few
real estate offices in Chicago in which
diamonds are sold and many travelling
men carry one or more diamonds as a
sort of speculative side line.

THIRTY FEET TALL.
Horses Roamed In Wyoming In OIden
Days Now FossiIized.

From the Cheyenne News
Out in Wyoming lot of scientific
Srubbers have unearthed the fossil re-
mains of horse thirty feet long and
more than thirty feet high. The grub
bers seem to have pieced the horse to-
gether without any comment and they
don't offer word of information con-
corning either his genealogy or his
track record.
A horse thirty feet long would APP
pear to be a lot of horse. If he be-
longed to the cave man the latter GER
tainly had his hands full. A horse so
tall that a thirty-foot ladder became
necessary when his bride was to be
put on might well be called the pride
of the stable-although no ordinary
stable would begin to accommodate
him.
If the cave man hadn't any ladder
and couldn't borrow one, the next best
thing was to climb tree. Then Try
to imagine him shining up tall
palm with the heavy bride on his
back, only to find that when he at
tanned the right altitude the horse
had moved beyond reach and was
peacefully browsing on the tall grass
Oh the jungle!
or course, 30-foot horse could be
expected to cover much more ground
than an ordinary animal Of the same
breed-even at walk. And If he took
into his head to work his way across
lots there would appear to be nothing
to impede him. Fences would go down
before him like stubble and merely
playful cavort would carry him over
raging torrents.
When 30-foot horse SHE'D at a bit
of white paper in the roadway the
chances are that he jumped clear over
into the next county.
AS war horse the 90-footer must
have been a startler. When he let out
a neigh the enemy fled in blind and
unreasoning terror. When he champed
his bit and paved the ground the very
hills shuddered When he switched his
tail the hireling foe fell about him like
ripened grain.
And then think of the nightmare
that could be expected to follow the
first sight of the prodigious equine.
He cerainly was wonder 1t is a great
pity we know so little about him.
