Month and Travelling Pub
lie Does the Rest.

Chicago, Dec 16-The tipping system,
particularly as it applies to the Pullman
company. underwent a fleeing inquiry
before Interstate Commerce Commissioner
Lone today. This statement was made
by Richard Dean. general manager of the
Lane is irQuiring- The witness deniad
that the public tips the porter because he
is underpaid and observed:
The tipping custom is a result of the
selfishness of persons who desire better
service than their fellows and are willing
to pay for it,
Dean: What is the salary of a porter"
They are paid s25 month, answered
the witness.
Does the company furnish them their
meals?''
1.-THE company does not
81 think it takes that much to buy their
meals, them commented the lawyer.
General Manager Dean of the Pullman
company, testified that he preferred the
upper berth himself and declared that his
company considered them as good as the
lowers That the travelling public service
was generally the opposite, however, he
admitted.
Mr.. Deem said the experiment of reduc-
ing the price of uppers % per cent had
been tried some eyaTs ago between New
York and Boston, but had not proved sat-
isfactOry. y similar reduction on an ex-
cursion between Chicago and st. Paul had
not proved popular. as four lower to one
upper We're sold. A reduction of . per
cent. he said. would necesstate the sale
of 30 l-3 per cent more uppEs to main
tain the present revenue.
But we want a reduction of 30 per
cent" interpOsed Attorney Manahan. rep

Mr.. Dean said that the cars are fumi-
gated once week and in sections of the
country where the tuberculosis patients
are carried the cars are fumigated at the
end of every trip. He declared that out
of 100000 passengers carried on the new
steel cars last year there was but one
death from accident.
Mr.. Underwood told the court that it
costs the St. Paul road $4,000 TO build a
sleeper of which the road has 100, and
that their rates We're the same as those

DEPUTIES WANT TO KNOW.
Clerks Office Employees Puzzled Over
Marriage License Problem.

of late the deputies in the county
clerks office have been discussing ways
and means of preventing persons under
the age provided by the statutes from
swearing falsely when they apply for
licenses to marry. Five such cases have
occurred during the past year, the lat
est during the present week
When licenses are issued to persons
swearing falsely as 10 their age the dep
uty clerk issuing the license is usually
selected as a mark upon which the irate
parents heap their wrath, when, as a
matter of fact, the clerks believe they
have to perform their duty when they
administer the oath to the parties making
the application.
Recently, Judge Howell was called up
on to marry a couple where the bride
was under the required age. The license
was issued in regular form, after the
couple had taken the oath according TO
law. A short time later. however, the
parents of the girl called upon Judge
Howell to ask how he obtained the right
to marry the couple without their con-
sent. The whole matter was referred to
the clerks office from which the license
was issued. but as far as can be learned
nothing came of the matter

JUDGE GUNNELL
MAKES REPORT
Tells What the Juvenile Court
Has Done During the
Past Year.

Judge V. c. GunnelI of the juvenile
court has prepared his annual report
to be submitted to the Juvenile court
commission today The document is a
lengthy one, in which he points out
what has been accomplished during the
year.
The report says, in part:
I'm Weber county great number OF
boys have been brought before the judge
upon informal. oral complaints made and
these have been adjusted and settled
without any court record of the same be-
ing entered The more formal matters.
where written complaints were filed and
orders of court made, are as follows:
Between Nov. 49, 1907. and Nov. 30,
1908, complaints were filed against eight
cen boys and five girls; of these eight
boys were committed to the state indus
trial school; four were permitted to pay
fines for escape from further appear
ance in court. and upon doing so were
discharged; three of the girls married
and were permitted to go free; three
boys and one girl were discharged on
hearing of cases; one boy was ordered
to committing magistrate and the case
dismissed; one boy was committed to the
care of a farmer, and one girl commit
tea to the care of a lady relative resid-
Ing in Ogden until further ordered.
More than half of all juvenile delin-
quents come from condition of death
or divorce among parents. Only a few
boys or girls whose parents are living
ana maintaining nome together get
into the juvenile court.
In about one-haf of the cases of
delinquent children the parents are ma
tive of this state or practically raised
here and the children born here.
THE cases receiving attention of the
judge and probation officer, without writ
ten complaint, in Weber county during
the year are as follows: Violating city

city limits, S: using tobacco. Z: other
probation cases, 80; girls lectured and
corrected. 2
I'm many of these cases boys and par
ents were advised TO pay the damage
done through their mischief, which was
done, and the matters thus adjusted to
the satisfaction of all and to the i'm
pressive instruction of boy and parent.

Report of Chairman Hepburn's Steer
ing Committee Proposition
Definitely Defeated.

washington. Dec. 16.-Another step to-
ward amending the rules of the house was
taken tonight when the insurgents held a
mass meeting. The report of the commit
tee appointed at the insurgents meeting
last week was submitted. although the
committee had much difficulty in reaching
an agreement.
Colonel Hepburn of Iowa, chairman OF
the committee informed the gathering
that the committee had decided that some
changes in the method of selecting COM
mittees in the house was desirable. It had
been agreed, he said. that the rules should
be changed so that one day each week
would be set aside exclusively for the call
of the committees He explained that the
COMMITTEES wished this day TO be given as
exclusively to the call as the District of
Columbia day is now given to considera-
ton of bills concerning the district.
In regard to the change in the method
of choosing committees the report was a
compromise. the committee refusing TO
agree to the proposition that a steering

lect the committees

recommended the election of committee
of nine members of the house to choose
the committee. the committees themselves
To elect their own chairman.
This suggestion met with opposition and
led to a prolonged discussion
No action was taken on the recommen-
dations as il was believed more time
should be given TO considering the
changes
The meeting adjourned to meet in JAN
uary.
There were twenty-five members pres
ent the same number as at the former
meeting but the presence of several new
faces made the leaders claim that they
would have large enough following to
command attention About twenty-eight
members will be needed to combine with
the Democrats to change the rules. and
the insurgents" claim that the attend
ance at the two meetings shows that tAcy
will have at least thirty. Hayes of Cali
fornia was among those present.

CIemenceau's Reply.

Speaking for the princess. NJ. Clemen-
ceau characterized De Castellanes change
Of attitude on the money question as a
gallery play" induced by his tardy ap-
probation of the unprecedented character
of his demand for an allowance of s50.ee
a year and the severity with which the
public had condemned and ridiculed him.
Touching the counts statement that he
renowned this claim with pleasure, the
lawyer announced:
IF the count took such pleasure in re-
nouncing this demand, why did he ever
formulate it?'
NJ Clemenceau justified the interven-
ton of George Gould on the ground OF his
sisters interests and said he could not
understand why Mr.. Gould was the OBJ
ject of such violent attacks. He denounced
Castellan'es conduct during the period OF
his marriage. The count. he said should
have been irreproachable in order to avoid
the insinuation that ne had married Miss
Gould for her money. The lawyer then
reminded the court that the real battle
was between two men. Count De Castel-
lane and Prince Helie De Sagan, who
hated each other.
Mr. Clemenceau concluded that the
Princess De Sagan had not forfeited any
of the confidence reposed in her when
the court gave her the custody of her
three children. and he asked the court to
maintain his client in her rights
