Washington, january liza prompt
sequel has come to Saturdays pro
cocdings in the House Of Representa-.
tives, when that body went on record
in rebuling President Roosevelt. Large
ly as a result OF disclosures then made
by Congressman Smith of Iowa oil
padded payrolls and various irregul'
arities connected with the secret SER
vice. Congressman Tawney introduced
resolution which calls for sweep
ing Investigation, not only Of the OPP
erations of the secret service, but also
OF the forces employed in the various
departments TO detect lawbreakers. Mr.
Tawney's resolution was unanimously
adopted without debate.
The main purpose OF the investiga-
ton is 10 demonstrate that the secret
service has been illegally used and con-
ct the last session Congress made more
liberal appropriations than ever before
for the maintenance of inspection and
detective forces. The investiga ting
committee, which is 10 be appointed BY
the speaker, will undoubtedly call on
Chief Wilkie of the secret service TO
explain his payrolls and other expen-
ditures and TO submit for examination
all secret papers Of his Office. The de-
tail of secret service men to guard the
president himself is among the techni-
cally illegal acts which, il is claimed,
caused Mr.. Wilkie 30 last year declare
that he was forced TO commit perjury
in swearing 10 his monthly accounts.

During the brief time that the House
was in session Saturday Congressman
Gardner OF Massachusetts, asked for
and obtained unanimous consent that
his vote, which BY manifest mistake he
gave Saturday for the resolution re-.
buking the president, be recorded
against the resolution.
Aside from general satisfaction over
the manner in which the House did its
work, chief interest centers for the
time in President Rooseyelt's attack on
Senator IIllman. Senator Iillman is
not to he prejndged. Yet it Is proper

opinion that Tillman is thoroughly

FEWER IDLE CARS NOW.
Reports on File in Rutland Railroad Car
Accountants Office.

Rutland, ain. 1.-THE latest report of
the American Railway associations com.
mittee on car efficiency, just received by
w. p Luttrell, car accountant OF the
Rutland railroad, gives some interesting
figures regarding the number OF idle
freight ears in the country The total
number of revenue freight cars in the
United States on December 20 last was
2Os4 1877. OF this number 222,0T7 were
not in use. The figures for the New
England group of railroads were 6,940
In October, 1907, just prior TO the big
panic, there was a shortage OF $4,000
cars in the United States. On December
"a the effect Of the panic had begun to
be felt and 200, 600 cars were idled. The
surplus continued to increase until on
April 20, zoos. there were over 100000
cars standing on the sidings. That was
the high water mark, and the surplus
decreased all through the summer. until
in October the number OF idle cars was
only 10000. The recent increase TO
222,0T7 was probably due to the holiday
shutdowns in the manufacturing plants,
rather than TO any new slump in busi-
ness.
The Rutland railroad IS az present
fully able to meet all demands for freight
equipment

HEIREss SUED FOR $4,000.
Doctor Charges She Failed to Keep an
Agreement to We'd.

Chicago, Jan, liza breach OF promise
suit In which Dr.. Kirke Stanley OF New
York seeks to recover $4,000 from Mrs
Jeanette Deere Chapman, one Of the
heirs to the milions OF the late John
Deere Of Moline, Ill.,, came to light yes
terday in the Office of the clerk OF the
superior court.
The bill was filed last October, but
carefully suppressed until service could
be had on Mrs Chapman. Not until last
Monday were the process servers able
to locate the defendant. Even then the
story was kept from the public until yes.
terday, whom Attorney Henry Roth, act.
ing for Dr. Stanley, admitted the exist
ence OF the suit.
Mrs Chapman who, the plaintiff al
legas, is 81 years OF age, has long been
social leader both in the United States
and in Paris, where she spends consider
able time.
DR.. Stanley's bill set forth that Mrs
Chapman promised to marry him some
years ago, the date being set for Feb
10, 1905. This promise was not kept,
although plaintiff declares that he was
at that time and is still ready to carry
out his part of the agreement.
According to Attorney Roth, MIRA.
Chapman and Dr. Stanley had planned a
trip around the world following their
wedding, and the doctor had abandoned
a highly lucrative practice to prepare
for the wedding. Objections raised by
Mrs. Chapmans children resulted in the
breaking Of the troth.

Dyspepsia Causes Consumption.


The post norton statistics Of the big
New York hospitals show that some
cases OF consumption are due to4un'

brain, the weakened, irritable stomach is
unable 90 digest food, the body does
not receive the required nourishment,
constipation ensues and the victim be-
comes thin, weak, and haggard. AS n
result the body becomes fertile field
for the germs OF disease to lodge and
flourish
Therefore, the person who permits dys-
pepsia 10 progress unhindered is guilty
Of contributing toward the development
