Congress has passed a law, which
tie President VIII doubtless sign, for

sional authority to contribute to any
political purpose, and forbidding all
other corporations to contribute in con-
n~ection with an election Of United

General Grosvenor of Ohio, who If

that he would vote for the bill SO as
to allow the people to see how great a
failure it would be.
And, indeed, if the provisions of the
bill are properly summarized in the
press dispatches, the demonstration
will be prompt enough. If the law IS
what 10 to be inferred from that sum

it might not be obeyed. 1t is not made
an o~ffense, as indeed it could not prop
erly be made, for an official of a cor

pocket. Neither is it made an offense
for the corporation to double his sal

his contributing half of it to a polit-

GLASS FATE
UNDECIDED
JURORS APPARENTLY DIVIDED
ABOUT EVENLY
TALEsMEN ARE LOCKED UP FOR
THE NIGHT
New Bond for Glass Is Arranged to
Be Ready In Event of Ultimate
Disagreement and Dis
charge

BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, July N.-At 1880
p. m. the Glass jury was still out. The
best information that can be obtained is
that four or five are holding out for
acquittal and seven or eight are insist
ing upon conviction.
The jury has notable neighbors on the
third floor of the Fairmont hotel. A
suite near the jury's seven rooms is oc-
cupied by Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Clark, Jr.,
Mrs. Clark's mother and two friends.
At o'clock the jury was taken to a
private dining room on the first floor for
dinner.
At 1880 Judge Lawlor came to the
court room and after stating that the
sheriff informed him that the jury was
still celebrating, instructed that the jur-
ors be locked up for the night.
The jury had been out thirty-one hours.
The longest time any jury has been kept
out by Judge Lawlor was in 1904, in the
famous Jacob Eppinger case, which es-
tablished a record of three days of de-
liberation, followed by disagreement
and a discharge
Attorneys Delmas and Coogan have ar
ranged for a new bond for Glass to be
ready on a moments notice in the event
of final disagreement and discharge.

BOARD OF TRADE WAR is
NEAR END OF CAMPAIGN
Public Grain Houses OF Chicago
Threaten to Go Out of Business
and Become Private
Elevators
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, July 27.-The civil war
which has rent the Chicago board of
trade and divided that organization into
bitter factions for nearly a quarter of a
century is said to have entered into its
final campaign.
Yesterday notice was received that
the supreme court of the state will
within a few days decide whether an
Injunction shall issue preventing the
public grain warehouses of Chicago
from going out of business pending the
opportunity of the court next October
to determine whether the railroads CEN
tering here have the legal right to
allow the public to be deprived of the
facility of public warehouses along
their lines which the public has en-
loved in some instances for more than a
half century.
The civil wn- of the board of trade is
commonly known as the elevator war
and now is in the hands of the supreme
court for the third, and presumably last
time.
1t arrived before that body upon it's
third visit through the medium of a
chancery case begun here by the people
of the state against the Illinois Central
railroad, the Central Elevator company
and others, asking the court to pre-
vent the defendants from disseminating
the business of warehouse men,
Issues Injunction
Judge Windes issued q temporary in
junction which Judge Honore dis
solved, presumably to permit the ques-
tions involved to get before the supreme
court without delay.
The latter body is now considering
whether it will temporarily restrain
the defendants until the court can de-
termine the legal issues involved.
No longer is there any doubt where
the great majority of the members of
tbe hoard of trade stand upon the ele-
vator question nor is there any half
heartedness in the determination to
compel the elevator men to obey the
law as the courts have interpreted it,,
which is to compel them to confine
themselves strictly to the business of
public warehouse men.
On their part the elevator men have
played their trump card by refusing on
July l to make application to the board
to have the elevators mare regular
and thus, for the second time In this
war is the grain business of this mar-
ket being conducted without regular
public elevators.
Supplementing the playing of this
somewhat desperate card the elevator
men have served notice that they viii
go out of the public warehouse busi-
ness and become private elevators,
thereby depriving this market tempor-
arily of the facilities for storing any or
the 100000, 900 or 260,000,000 bushels of
grain which is annually brought here

GREEK INDIANS WILL
BE MILLIONAIPES
ROYALTY FROM OIL WELLS FAST
MAKING TRIBE RICH
Each Redskin Receives an Amount
Annually Greater Than the Salary
of a United States Cabinet
Official

Special to The Herald.
KANSAS CITY, July, 7.-The tremen-
dous production of oil in the Glenn pool is
making the Creek Indians as rich as the
Osages. A citizenship in the Usage nation
is now worth about $25, 1000, but the Creeks
are coming fast.
The average daily production in the
Glenn pool is 900 barrels. OF this the
Indian owners of the land get 1880 bar
rels, one-tenth The oil is worth about Al
cents a barrel, giving the Indian lessons
of the 105O0 acres comprising the pool
s5125 day. This amounts to A,S72,625 a
year. The royalty is paid as long as the
oil is in the ground. Then there is the
money for the lease and the bonus which
frequently runs So and $40 and sometimes
500 an acre. This is all profit for the
Indians.
The Indian never gets the worst or II
in the oil game because the government
looks after him and sees that the bonuses
and the royalties are paid when due
Further than this the government sees
that the Indian gets the full benefit OF tnf
market price. It's the white man VINO II
putting up his money to develop the coun
try and make the Indian rich who mas tC
stand all the chances of failure.
There are 100 Indian owners of th'
leases In the Glenn pool getting the $1,S72
625 a year. This makes an average o
s15, $50 each on royalties alone That Il
| more money than a cabinet ofhcer OF TN
United States or a justice of the suprem
court receives as salary. The beauty of
all is the Indian does not have to worl
to get the money. The Indian agen
comes around and hands 1t to him
| Just for speculation statistician wa
figuring the life of the Glenn pool VIII
the life of other pools and he came to th'
total of $35, 100000 which will be paid ou
to the Creeks in royalties before the poo
passes the stage of marketable produc
ton. That will make every Indian rich
And the beauty of 1t is that the royalty
is in the shape of an annuity on monthly
payment plan.
The Indian cannot anticipate his royal
ties. He cannot sell them or make a
contract to sell them. The government
looks after that. All the Indian can do rs
to spend the money after he gets 1t every
month. And he can do that as well as
anybody who ever lived.

RAILROADS AGREE TO
OBSERVE RATE LAW
STATE OF CAROLINA WINS ITS
HARD FIGHT
Constitutlonalty of the Act Is to Be
Tested In Courts, Going to Su-
preme Court II Found
Necessary
BY Associated Press.

BY As5ociated Press.
RALEIGI. n. c., July 27.-The state Of
North Carolina has won in it's fight to
have it's passenger rate law of two cents
and a quarter observed by all the rail-
roads pending an appeal to the courts by
the roads of the state, which propose to
fight the law.
The promise of obedience to the law
by the Southern Railway and the Allan
tic Coast Line railway, which since July,
which was the date set for the rate law
to go into effect, have been violating the
law, was given this afternoon at a con-
ference which the railroads sought
with Governor Glenn, who had stated
that as precedent to any agreement he
might make the two and one-quarter
cent rate must first be put into effect
The conference was private one.
After it ended Governor Glenn stated
that at the beginning of the conference
the railroad reports stated that they were
ready to agree to the two and one-quar-
ter cent rate, 1t later to be tested in the
original Injunction case before Judge
Pritchard an appeal if necessary to be
taken by the state to the supreme court
of the United States, while the railroads
would appeal the case to the North Caro-
lima supreme court and if necessary take
| the case on writ Of error to the supreme
court of the United States.
| The Sth of August was agreed upon as
the time for putting into effect the two
and one-quarter cent rate.
Messrs. Tomb and Humphrey, as coun-
sci for the Southern Railway company,
state that the Southern Railway will not
inaugurate contempt proceedings because
of anything heretofore done by any of
the state officers in connection with the
rate litigation.

NICARAGUA AND SALVADOR
AGAIN ON VERGE OF WAR
BY Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, July N-From the
officers and passengers of the steamer
City of Panama, which arrived from An
con yesterday, comes the information
when the steamer left Acajutla, three
weeks ago, the republics of Nicaragua
and Salvador were on the brink of war.
President zelaya of Nicaragua had just
given orders for two gunboats to proceed
from Corinte to Acajutla in Salvador and
after bombardment of that point to land
marines to join his army in an attack
upon San Salvador city.
President Zelaya refused to restore the
Salvador commentaries boat which had
been seized and it Is still being kept at
Corinta.
The refusal to return this boat to Sal
vador is one of the causes of the renewal
of hostilities.
The United States armored cruiser Mil
waukee and the gunboat Yorktown were
both in the harbor at Acajutla, looking
after American interests.
