Damaging Evidence - Testimony
Creates Sensation.

Washington, June IA sensation

has been regarded as the principal wit
ness in the trial of Edwin S. Holmes,
Jr., on the charge of defrauding the
government in connection with the
leakage of cotton crop reports in the
agricultural department, was called to
the stand.
Van Ripper said he had first met
Holmes the 9TH of August, 1904, at a
hotel in this city, whittier he came to
meet him on representations made by
Frederick A. Peckham, of New York,
who had assured him Of Holmes abil-
ity to supply advance information con-
cerning crop reports. Holmes, ac-
cording to witness, then proceeded to
exhibit copies of the crop bulletins and
to tell him he had practically made up
the reports and that Statistician Hyde
had accepted his estimate.
Holmes told him he had been supply
ing information concerning the report
to other persons in New York, as the
result Of which he had accumulated
$55, 900.

SHOULD TEST LAW
Judge Mcpherson Thinks Two-cent
Rate Should be Put In Force Until
Actual Experience Shows Whether
It is Remunerative-Hand Down
Opinion i'm Missouri Case.

Kansas City. June 17.-Federai Judge
Smith Mcpherson this afternoon
handed down an opinion growing out
of the conflict between the circuit
courts at Kansas City and St Louis,
and the federal court here, over the
enforcement of the Missouri maximum
freight and two-cent passenger laws.
Mcpherson retains that he maintains
jurisdiction to adjudicate the validity
of the laws of Missouri, including the
amendatory freight law Of 1901.
Whether the temporary injunction
asked for by the Missouri railroads to
restrain the state officials from en-
forcing these statutes, shall be issued,
the court says will be considered a
week or so hence. Mcpherson said
that his present view is that the two
cent law should be put in force until
it can be ascertained by actual exper-
ience whether two cents will be re-
munerative.

rolled at the school about Jan. l. and

the trial of Emma Kaufman, charged
with causing the death of Agnes Pol
reis, was resumed today, Joseph Kirby,
Sioux Falls attorney who assisted the
state at the preliminary hearing last

state, that shortly before the prelimin-
ary examination, Kirby told Erickson
to omit from his statement certain
facts concerning the relations between
the dead girl and Mrs. Kaufman.

son to tell all the facts Joseph
Schwartz, a Sioux Falls architect, pre-
sented the plans of the Kaufman home
and its interior arrangements. Judge

ing made that he would be arrested as

TOO YOUNG TO TEACH.
New Law Bars Out Several Webster
City Youno Ladies.

Webster City, June 17.-Several
young ladies who built up expectations
of becoming school mistresses this year
met with disappointment for the reason
that they cannot secure under the new
law a certificate permitting them to
teach. The law states that those of be-
low eighteen years shall not be allowed
to take the examinations for the pur-
pose of securing certificate. They
can attend institute, by paying the
required fee, but they will not be al
lowed to enter the field as an in
structor until they have attained their
majority Heretofore there has been
no stipulation barring the girl of six
teen and seventeen to take up the
work, hence many of the rural schools
over the country have been taught by
young ladies, who, altho they may be
capable, will not be recognized as an
instructor this year.
