Charleston, Jan. 27.-A bill has

so-called nurses In the state posing

MUST NOT TAKE
DRINK ON A TRAIN
ACCORDING TO BILL WHICH
PASSED HOUSE

Charleston, Jan. 2S.-The house OF
delegates, Friday. devoted its time
to the consideration OF a bill making
Il a criminal offense to take drink
OF any Intoxicating liquor on train.
The bill was the subject OF lively
comment 10y members. 1t was sug-
gested that Il was rather embarrass.

fresh himself with n sip from his
flask. An amendment was offered
requiring the railroad companies TO

member, who insisted that the short

The bill Is not far from being I'm re
straint of trade, and It is hoped IN
some quarters. at least, that It will
be found unconstitutional. The
house OF delegates passed the bill
Seriously the measure IS designed
20 protect the patrons OF the rail
roads from the annoyance OF seeing
follow passengers drink whiskey, and
to guard decent people, including the
crews OF trains, against the riotous
conduct OF travellers who seize the
opportunity to become intoxicated
In these particulars, the bill Is an ex-
cellent one and will meet with the
approval OF the people Of the state.
An important bill passed by the
house was that one making It a
criminal ofense for telegraph opera

is designed to avoid n part OF the

TREASURY DOES
NOT NEED MONEY
AND DEPOSITORS WILL BE AL
LOWED TO RETAIN SUM
OF $40, ,OOO,O

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 27.-Sec-
retary Shaw was asked to day as to
whether there would be any further
extension OF time for the return OF
public moneys now temporarily on
deposit in national banks. On Sep
tember 81, last, the secretary dis
tributed $29.OOO,O0O among the ma
tional banks throughout the coun-
try, with the notice that II would
probably be recalled about Fehru-
airy /, 1907. Some time later S12,-
100000 was similarity deposited, on
condition that II be returned between
January 90 and February 1, but
subsequently the time was extended
20 February /, and February 18th.
The secretary stated that there
would be no further extension as 20
the last deposit OF S12. 1000, and
the banks holding the same would
deposit would be returned on Feb
ruary /, and the remainder not later
than February Is. Regarding the
$4,000. 900, the secretary said there
had been no definite time fixed for
its return to the treasury. So far
there had been no requests from any
of the depositaries for additional
time, but in view OF the fact that Tor
every month OF the present fiscal
year, except July. there has been a
large excess OF government receipts
over expenditures. now aggregating
about s3O.OOO.OOO. he does not feel
like pressing for the return to the
treasury of money that is not need
ed. and therefore 1t is not unlikely
that such depositaries as desire to do
so, will be permitted TO retain their
present allotments for some months
or until changed conditions make It
necessary to require their return.

THAW INTERCEPTED
NOTE FROM WHITE
AFTER OBTAINING PLEDGE
FROM MURDERED MAN
WOULD NOT WRITE
TO EVERLYN

New Yory, Jan. 27.-One OF the
most important facts in the defense
of Harry X. Thaw became known
for the first time to-day, when a
suite OF rooms was leased in a big
uptown hotel for eight witnesses
coming from Pittsburg The posi-
tive statment is made that Thaw cal
led on Stanford Wh1e the night
before he killed him and exacted
from him a pledge that he would
never again try to communicate with
Everlyn Nesbit Thaw.
That Thaw had met white and OBJ
tanned from him this pledge less than
twenty-four hours before the tragedy
has been carefully guarded secret of
the defense. At dinner time, four
hours before White was killed, Thaw
intercepted a note from White ask
ing young Mrs. Thaw to meet him.
The defense is: From that mo
ment Thaw read that note and real
lied that White had broken his
pledge and was still pursuing his
young wife, his mind was blank.
He has no recollection OF what in
tervened from then up until the fol-
lowing day, of the dinner at Mar
tins or OF the shooting"

Recent happenings at Charleston
indicate that Huntington is not the
only town in danger of having the

ernor. On Thursday a bill was pre-
sented creating a governing board for
the town OF Williamson. This bill
contains essentially the same points

department, police department and

liar measure was offered a few days
ago for the town Of Logan. No
doubt these measures owe their
birth to the Huntington bill and are
intended to strengthen the position
OF the local machine In striving for
a governing board TO manage the af-
fairs Of Huntington. At the same
time they constitute part Of the gene

SANDERS STANDS PAT
NEGRO SERGEANT REFUSES TO
DENY KONwLEDGE OF THE
BROWNSVILLE AFFAIR

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 25.-
Mingo Sanders, the old First Ser
geant OF one OF the companies OF the
Twenty-fifth Infantry, dismissed with
ont honor, was at the War Depart
ment yesterday and resisted the ef-
fort OF Judge Advocate General Da-
Wis to have his AFFIDAVIT that the
was not concerned in the shooting
up OF Brownsville and knows moth
ing about IL either Of his own know
ledge or from heresay. Had he made
that afidavit. he would have been
enlisted and all the rights and hon
ors of which he was deprived would
have been restored.
Acting under orders issued yester-
day to recruit the depleted compan-
les OF the Twenty-ffth. the officers
apparently have begun n campaign to
get the dismissed men to make af-
fidavits and thus be restored to the
army.
Senator Foraker came to the con
clusion that the army officers were
endeavoring 20 make the Foraker in
vestigation farce by getting as many
men back as possible before II is be
gun. To head off such a move the
Military Affairs Committee will is.
