ing hats and roaring cheer.
Throughout the demonstration the
blind senator stood amid the noise
and confusion almost without show of
emotion, the very center. part of the
time, of the greatest noise and most
exciting scenes. But Of the scene it.

eyes could tell him nothing.
When the final hush had been put

RECEIVERS NAMED FOR
CHICAGO GREAT WESTERN

St.Raul, Jan. 11.-Judge Walter j.
Sanbofn of the United States circuit
court has appointed A. B. Stickney
and Charles H. F. Smith, both resi-
dents of st. Paul, receivers for the
Chicago Great Western railroad.
The appointment of receivers fol-
lowed the inability of the company to
meet obligations falling due in 1908
and failure to secure an extension of
the obligations. Loss as result OF
the boilermakers' strike Of last fall is
given as partial cause of the finan-
cial straits of the road. It was pointed
out also in the proceedings that dur
ing the last ten years the road has
spent $19,OO0,OOO in reconstruction.
Mr.. Stickney has been president OF
the road since it's building and was
Endorsed for the receivership by the
stockholders.

Mckenzie Clelland's efforts to redeem
the fallen, through his parole system,
came to an end when the last session
of the Maxwell branch of the court.
prior to his transfer to the civil
branch of the tribunal, was held.
Many who never before entered q
police court were present. Also there
were wives whose homes, they said,
had been redeemed from the curse Of
drunken husbands and fathers through
Judge Clelland's plan Of reformation.
Some were present who said their own
reformation was due to the system in
augurated by Judge Clelland. OF the
defendants last paroled only two were
present as delinquents.
Judge Clelland inaugurated his prof.
ect December 81, 1906, when the first
prisoner was paroled. Since then 1921

After wandering about for some time
he strolled down to the river-bank.
Near the Union Station, on the west
bank Of the river, he saw pile Of logs
touching the bank. He scrambled over
these to the outer edge and sat down
on two small logs. Before he noticed
1t they were floating, and he could not
reach those still firmly attached to the
shore.
The boy realized that he was being
swept along by strong current, but
did not realize his full peril. He sat
straddIing the logs, and padded with
his hands and feet against the current.
but to no advantage. The logs were
swept into the center Of the stream
and over the falls.
When Anthony saw that he was go

Colorado Judges Decision 10 jus,
Dawning on Administration.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE admins.
[tration's plan of campaign against land
frauds has been SO completely upset
by recent court decisions that It has
been decided to suspend for an In.
definite time the further investigation
|of frauds and the initiation Of new
cases in the courts. The small army
LOT special agents of the department OF
Justice and the interior department
will be disbanded at once and there
will be cessation of activity all along
the line, until certain questions of law
are passed upon by the highest judi
cial authority.
The disarrangement Of the govern
ment plans was caused by the recent
decision Of Federal Judge Lewis of
Colorado, followed as it was by the
judgment of the United States SUI
preme court in the Williamson case.
The significance Of the Lewis decision
was not grasped all at once by the adj
ministration.
Further Action Useless.
Attorney General Bonaparte admit
ted that it was futile to proceed any
further in the investigation of land
frauds and the institution Of new pros
ecutions until the points raised by
Judge Lewis can be passed upon by
the higher courts.
This means that matters will remain
practically at a standstill for many
months. Judge Lewis decision was
adverse of the legal grounds taken by
the government heretofore in three
important particulars, the Colorado
Judge holding in effect: First, that
the final entry of land is not necessar-
lily accompanied by oath to answer the
requirements of the law; second, that
a so-called conspiracy is not conspir-
|acy within the meaning of the law un-
less it can be shown that the persons
conspired prior to the entry; and,
third, that determining the applica-
ton Of the statute of limitations, the
time is to be reckoned from the first
overt act Of the lawbreaker.
