 COMER CLASH Senator's Advice Is Not
 Wanted. ATTACKS BILL IN SENATE 'gury Commissioner Must te
 Prohibitionist." Governor Deciined to Listen to Pike County senator and President
 of Raiiroad Conmission,
 Chss. Henderson.


 In connection with the fight which Senator Gamble made upon the Jury Commissioner bill on the floor of the Senate yesterday morning comes the rumor that his action on the floor of the Senate was brought about by the fact that the chief executive did not accord to Senator Gamble and Charles Henderson. president of the State Rail- road Commission. such treatment as the two thought proper on the occasion of @ formal visit to the gubernatorial off, flee.
 It is stated that Senator Gamble and Mir. Henderson called upon Governor Conner early yesterday morning to ad- wise with him relative to the appoint ment of jury commissioners in Pike county. If is said that Governor Conner stated flatly that he had no in- tention whatever of taking advice from those persons not in favor of consti- tutionaI prohibition. and further that he would appoint no one jury com missioner who was not prohibition ist
 Senator Gamble and Mir. Henderson felt aggrieved. so 1t Is said, over the treatment which had been accorded them by the Governor, and the attack on the bill on the floor of the Senate by Senator Gamble during the morning hours yesterday followed

MISS SEAL REPORT
GOVERNMENT ANXIOUS ABOUT sI"
 LENCE OF AGENT.
Man Stationd Tn PriboiOH Islands Falls to Send in Record of Seal
 Killing Expeditions fu AuEuaf.

Washington, Aug. 2s.-Oficials of the Department of Commerce and La bor feel considerable concern because of the non-receipt of the report of Agent W. I. Lembky. giving the num- her of seals taken on the Priboloff Is- lands by the North American Commer- cial Company which leases the sealing rights of the Government.
 The report should have been receiv- ed by August 10. but nothing has been heard from MT. Lembky. The fact that there Is known to be a number of Japanese expeditions Is the cause for the alarm existing. When Mir. Lembky went to the islands at the beginning of last season, he took with him two mountain howitzers and quantity of side arms. All of his men were thoroughly armed.
 Raids on the islands have been nu- merous in the past several years and the Japanese were particularly daring. it is said, just about the time these raids closed. The revenue cutter in that section was kept engaged in pa trolling and watching sealers who kept so close to the islands that, unless under known surveillance they did not hesitate to kill the herds in ruthless manner.
 If nothing is heard from Mir. Lemb- ky this week, 1t is likely that word will be dispatched to the revenue cut | ter to investigate The Government lessees are not allowed to exceed an annual Kill of 15.o0o seals. For the past two years the lessees have en- countered difficulty in obtaining the quota permitted by their contract and the scarcity appears to have embold' 1 ened the Japanese sealers.

 "on receipt of the above informa ton those contestants who desire 1t will be furnished with rules by which the committee on measurement of yield will be governed in determining the yield, and also blank form for its re- port.
 "1 would be pleased to be informed as to the results obtained by any one who has tested the method regardless of whether they are contestants for prizes or not. This information Is for the benefit of the general public.
 Yours truly,
 'W. H. Seymour. "P. S-Under the rules no corn can be harvested before October 1, nor within 180 days from time of planting.
