ces road attractions. Instead of be-

Governor Vetoes Bills.

Governor Burke has vetoed the oil in
spection bill, which abolished the gray
ity test for oils and was designed
to admit Kansas oils to the state.
Tests of these oils made by state
chemists proved them to contain great
er Illuminating power than Eastern
oils, but the feature of the bill object.
ed to by the governor was that pro-
viding for Eastern gasoline to be
colored red, while Western gasolines
were not required to be colored. Und-
er this provision of the bill the gov
ernor holds there is great dangers of
accidents from misunderstanding of
provisions of the bill. The bill pro-
vfding for the purchase of road ma
chinery by townships also was vetoed.
The bill to take unorganized territory
in u~norganiZed counties was also We.
toed, and also the bills providing for
changes in the naming of deputies and
bailiffs of courts and providing for su,
preme court practice on demurrers.

In providing 2-cent fares and the pub.
lie agitation against them the rail.
roads of the West have served notice
on the Interstate commerce commits.
sion of an increase of freight rates on
grain, coal and iron.
This will result in a test Of the con-
stirutionality of the rate regulation

mission is obliged to keep the rates as
low as possible and the roads will en-
deayor to show that they are now un.
able TO carry the commodities named
at a profit under the rate which has
been in effect for the past two years
and that an increase is necessary.
Formal notice was served on the
commission by all the trunk lines out

creased after April l from 17h cents

GET BEYOND CONTROL
GOVERNMENT FORCES UNABLE
TO SUPPRESS DISORDERS.
IN ROUMANIA.

Bucharest, March 25.-That the re-
voting peasants of Roumania are at
least temporarily beyond the control
Of the government forces in the field
is amply evidenced Ey the stories of
pillaging and incendiarism coming in
from all parts of Moldavia and Wal.
lachia.
There have been several serious
conflicts between peasants and troops,
notably at Bacess, in the district of
Vaslui. where 1000 peasants armed
with rifles and revolvers attacked a
company of soldiers. The troops fired
several volleys, killing forty peasants
and w%ounding large numbers, but the
soldiers were so greatly outnumbered
that they finally were obliged to re.
treat.
At the village of Teleorman, in the
Alexandria district of Wallachia, peas
ants sacked the synagogue and burned
forty houses. The rioters also demol-
ished and completely pillaged Zim-
nicea, another village in the AleXan-
drja district.

The state public library commission
created by the last legislature has per-
fected its organization by the election
of F. ]. Thompson as president and
Mrs. Minnie g. Budlong as secretary.
It is proposed by the commission to

mission will also take charge of the
educational reference library and the
system of travelling libraries, which
has been established for some time.
1t also will organize a legislative
reference bureau for the assistance of
future legislative sessions. To this
end all reports issued by the various
states upon economic and like sub
jects will be %catalogued and classified
so as to be easy of access to the legis-
lators. w. l.. Stockwell of the board
has been authorized to visit the lib
rary commissions of Wisconsin and

ton relative to commission work as is
possible.

STOCK PRICES SLUMP
VIOLENT BREAK IN PRICES is
ACCOMPANIED BY VERY Elk
CITED TRADING.

New York, March 26.-There was a
violent slump in prices on the Stock
Exchange again Monday. accompanied
by excited trading, but without news
to account for it other than a decline
in metal prices in London and higher
rates on call money. The monetary.
situation did not seem to attract mucl
attention, however, and according to
brokers and members of banking firms
there "a nothing to explain the rapid
melting away of prices except that
holders of stocks wanted to sell them
and apparently without regard to the
price they got for their shares. Amer
can Smelling was n of the weakest
features. falling an extreme 1874
points. but the United States Steel
corporation shares and the railroads
also made wide declines.
The selling seemed to be ur-
gent and there were wide drops be
tween sales. The volume of the sell
ing orders was so great that it would
have been impossible to check the de-
cline even if there had been attempts
to check prices. American Smelling,
Amalgamated Copper, United States
went down without restraint, carrying
with them the general list without
execution.

NORTH DAKOTA NEWS
ITEMS OF A WEEK FROM VARi.
GUS PARTS OF THE STATE.
Report of Northwestern North Dakot.
Federation Shows Report:
t%alities From Cold Were
Grossly Exaggerated.

According to the report Of the
Northwestern North Dakota fedora
ton, just issued, during the past Win
ter there We're only eight deaths in
North Dakota which could yer indi-
rectly be traced to the cold weather.
The federation has made an eXhaus-
tive Investigation of conditions in
every County Of the state, and finds
that there have been deaths attributed
to cold only in the following counties:
Williams county, two deaths; Ward
county, three deaths: Wells county.
three deaths.
In Williams county a printer started
from Crosby to walk to his claim, was
caught in a blizzard and persisted.
The other instance in Williams coun-
ty was a Crosby school teacher, the
particulars of whose death have not
been received by the federation.
The three deaths in Ward county
occurred at White Earth. Kenmare
and Blaisdell. Full particulars con
corning the death at White Earth have
not been received. At Blaisdell a wo-
man was found under the bed with
her body frozen and there is doubt
whether cold was the primary cause
OF her death.
The three deaths in Wells county
are reported to have been due to cold.
but with alcoholism as a contributing
agency.
1T is almost generally reported that
there has been little real suffering
from the cold, and what suffering
there was might have been prevented
with ordinary precautions. In many
counties there was not a single death
during the entire winter from any
cause.

3UCH is THE OPINION OF SEVEN
EXPERTS AS SUBMITTED TO
COURT BY JEROME.

New York. March 22.-District AT.
sorney jerome presented to Justice
Fitzgerald eight afIidavits in support
of the suggestion he made Wednes
day in the case of Harry X. Thaw that
the defendant is now in such a state
OF lunacy OF insanity as to be incapa-
able of understanding the proceedings
against him or making his defense.
The court was in session for less than
en hour, Dolphin Nj. Delmas for the
defense stating hat their answer to
the district attorneys proposition was
no ready. Justice Fitzgerald allowed
both sides until Saturday afternoon at
: O'Clock 10 file such affidavits as they
desire with the clerk Of the court.
Mr.. Jerome's afidavits submitted
embraced The opinion Of his seven ex-
Derts who have heretofore testified
and a statement by Irwin S. Cobb, a
newspaper reporter, who gave the text
of the statement which Thaw issued
At the conclusion OF Mr.. Jercme's
long II severe cross-examination of
his wife
Six of the aiienists in their afidavits
declared that Thaw was suffering from
? form of paranoia; that he should
no be discharged from custody; that
III he should be discharged he would
be dangerous to public peace and
safety and that 1t is reasonably Ger
cain that he will not recover. The
seventh ~alienist, Dr.. Hirsch, agrees
with his colleagues except that he de-
Tclafed that Tilaw cannot possibly re-
cover.
