was an able, conscientious man.
II am delighted to hear you say
that,' said the president. 'sBut I
want to say that if it were not for the
interests Of stockmen and the DANGER
that those interests might be detri-
mentally affected by action I might
take, would take drastic measures i'm
mediately and compel the packers to
make the necessary sanitary changes
in their ablishments. Conditions are
bad, worse than I had thought. They
have not made any effort to ameliorate
conditions. I know this agitation is
hurting the export business, but I do
not want to do anything hastily that
will injure the innocent. This is the
only reason why I hesitate to give the
matter the widest publicity -
The president urged that if the pack
ers were sincere they would join forces

passage of the Beverage bill providing
for the federal regulation Of the meat

Representative Mann took Messrs.
Skinner and Carlisle to the bureau of

ditions of the packing houses to meet

NO VOTE ON sMOOT YET
When It Comes, Next Week, It Will B,
.. .. Close.

Washington, May 25.-No vote was
had today in the senate committee on
privileges and elections on the right of
Senator Reed Smoot of Utah to retain
his seat in the senate, Chiefly because it
developed that in the numerous changes
Of dates for the meeting Senators Hop
kins and Dolliver failed to receive their
notice that action was to be taken to-
day. Both Of these sectors, as well as
Senators Depew, Bailey and Frazier
were absent. The three last named,
however, had left proxies. The COM
mittee adjourned until Friday next.
Opposition to voting at the present
session was voiced by three or four SEN
ators, who said that the railroad rate
bill had taken so much Of their time
that they had not had an opportunity
to read the authorities quoted by the
attorneys on both sides Of the case in
making their final arguments. .
It is known that Senator Depew can
not be present, and if all of the others
are in attendance the vote may result
in a tie. Senator Depew has sent his
proxy to the chairman, but the com
mittee has not consented to accept it,
If it is voted the decision will be
against Smoot. If it is excluded the
result depends upon Senator Dolliver
| who has not made his position known.

SENT TO MADHOUSE
THO He WAS SANE I ;.
Ryan of Mansion, Wis, Rail
roaded to an Asylum, Is Or
dered Released.
Srecial to The Journal.

Special to The Journal. &"
Madison, Wis, May ga case in
which a sane man was committed to a
Wisconsin insane asylum was heard in
the Dane county court today. The prin-
cipal was E. II. Ryan, aged 40 years,
a widely known real estate dealer of
Mansion, who was ordered discharged
from the asylum Immediately at the
close of the hearing.
On returning home from a business
trip several weeks ago Ryan's Swear
old daughter complained to him that a
a neighbours young boy. had thrown
sand into her hair. This aroused the
ire of Ryan and he caught the young
ster and administered sound spanking.
Shortly afterward the grandfather of
the boy complained to the authorities
that Ryan was dangerous man to be
allowed at large and asked that he be
sent to an insane asylum. Ryan thought
that the charge was simply one of as
sault. Even when a physician had a
short chat with him, no suspicion OF
the real proceedings dawned on him.
The fact that his wife was i'll in bed
and his attorney temporarily absent
from the city increased his predicament.
Only one doctor, instead of two, as re-
quired by law, saw or examined him be-
tween the time of his arrest and his
commitment, and he was not taken be-
fore the judge who ordered his commit
ment.
Ryan was in the asylum nineteen
days before his wife became well
enough to ask for his release.

It is the opinion of many intelligent
men in Washington that this piece Of
legislation is among the most import
ant acts Of congress during the past
generation. It will not only break up
in M oil I for light, fuel ana power, and cor.
respondingly reduce the price for the
article used for these purposes, but it
will furnish in this denatured alcohol
an article that is comparatively void
of danger and wholly lacking in the
offensive odors Of gasolene and kero-
sene and. in addition to all these things,
the legislation will stimulate the agri-
cultural sections of the country in a
most wonderful way by adding mate

Yerkes to have his regulations in pos
session of the public in ample time for
capital to busy itself and arrange to
have distilleries erected at favorable
points in time to use the next year g
crop of potatoes, corn, beets, etc. This
will mean that the farmers Of Mime

ern states, in common with those Of
other sections of the country, will, in
many cases, be figuring next year on
crops somewhat different in character
from those generally grown.
Nothing definite can be stated at
this time regarding the investment of
capital in the northwest, but in a gen
era1 way I am permitted to say that
as much New England capital as will
be necessary for that purpose has
already been pledged for investment in
distilleries in the potato and beet and

northwest states. Much Of the capital
is to be brought to Minnesota and the
