ance of the temporary receivership would best conserve the interests of all concerned.
 Judge Stearns stated that it seemed to the court that conditions warranted a continuance of MT. Goodwin as tem- porary received for the best interests of all concerned. He therefore con- tinued the matter to the first day of the April session of the superior court for Washington county.
 Judoe Edward M. Bufke held regu-
 lar session of the probate court, Tues day afternoon, and much of the time was occupied with the estate of John Lynch in which some of the heirs ob- jected to the charges of the adminis- trator Michael Hanafy, in which the sum of $75 was charged for Services and also charge of $35 of a%eal es- tate agent for sale of the real estate. The opposing heirs were represented by Attorney HinclIley of Stonington. The court allowed the administrator the sum of sS5 and from that amount the real estate agents fee should be paid Mir. Hanafy claimed that the real estate sale was charge against the estate and that he had been al- lowed fee of S75 as administrator of an estate of equal value. The fee allowed is for the personal estate and additional fees will be allowed the administrator for services in connec- tion with the real estate
 The court ordered that the sum of $75 be, expended for a headstone. to be erected by the administrator with in four months. The report of the ad- ministrator was continued to the third Tuesday in March

SENIOR PAUL SAYS EX-PREst

Ella AT HIS PERIL.
UNITED STATES TO BE FACTOR
IN PRESERVING PEACE
AND TRANQUILITY.

The Hague, March 31.-SenOr Paul.
Venezuelan envoy, gave out an inter
view here yesterday in which he ex-
planned that Venezuela had not with
drawn her objection to Castro land
ing in the republic, but had merely
notified the French steamship com
pany that the government would not
make any difficulties if the company
desired to carry Castro to a Vene-
zuelan port. IF the former presi-
dent continues his voyage 10 Vene-
zueIa," Paul said, che will do so az
his own peril"
Washington, March 31-The Unit
ed States government is watching
very closely every move Of former
President Castro of Venezuela. That
the United States can make Itself
a factor in preserving the peace of
Venezuela is generally believed here.
England, Germany and France are
naturally looked upon as likely to be
in sympathy with any proper action
the United States may take to pre-
vent a movement in the interests OF
Castro Every effort will be made to
prevent any expedition from the
United States to furnish Castro's fol-
lowers with arms and ammunition.

UNCONSTITUTIONAL
SAYS GILBERT
100000 BY CERTIFICATES
OF INDEBTEDNESS
DECLARES PROVISIONS OF FOR
EsTRY COMMITTEE BILL
CANNOT STAND.
Madison, March 81.

Attorney General Gilbert yesterday
rendered an opinion in response to a
request made by the committee on
forestry that the proposal contained
in senate bill 500, to issue certificates
of Indebtedness in the sum Of $1,000
600, is in cOntrayentiOn of the consti-
tutional provision which limits the
amount of Indebtedness which may be
incurred by the state 10 the sum of
100000.
The section Of the committee bill
which povides for the issuance of the
certificates reads as follows:
The state board of forestry is au-
thorized, for the purpose OF securing
money to purchase state forest re
serve lands, to negotiate or contract
for loans not to exceed in the aggre-
gate the sum Of one million dollars.
The state board of forestry shall pre-
pare and issue therefor certificates OF
Indebtedness in denominations OF one
hundred dollars, five hundred dollars,
and one thousand dollars, bearing in
terest at the rate of four per Centum
per annum. such interest payable an
nuaIly at the office Of the state treas
Wer. Such certificates of Indebtedness
shall be payable at the office of the
state treasurer and shall be redeem
able as follows: two hundred thOus-
and dollars in the year 1915 and two
hundred thousand dollars in each
succeeding year thereafter until the
whole amount shall be redeemed"
Attorney General Gilbert holds that
the proposal clearly results in the
creation of a debt against the state
and that therefore the enactment
would be unconstitutional.

HUNGARIAN MINERS
ORDERED to LEAVE

Terre Haute, Ind, March 31.-The
Hungarian miners employed at the
Boyle coIliery at JasonvilIe, who en-
gagged Monday night in a battle with
American miners, in which II per-
sons were wounded, yesterday accept
ed the inevitable and have scattered
to different parts Of the country.
Harry st. John, an American, was
most seriously wounded. He was
shot in the stomach and may die
There was more or less shooting all
night and yesterday armed Americans
ordered the Hungarians to leave at
once. Knowing the odds were all
against them, they piled their goods
on wagons and drove away in all di-
rections. An American flag was fly
ing over the mining camps school
house last night.

Greek negro, said TO have been quite
harmless. Barnett was an innocent
bystander" of the uprising. Despite
reports of clashes in which Crazy
Snakes followers were laid low, Bar
nett's body is the only one which has
been found, and it is the belief of In
dian Agents Baker and Farrer, and
of militia officers that his is the only
death loss suffered by the Indians
thus far. His Violent demise, how
ever, is the only basis discoverable
for reports sent out that Is or 20
Creeks were killed by the Infatuated
deputies. Members of the posse
speak vaguely of the effect of their
shots. 1t is probably true that some
Creeks were wounded, but they were
able to escape.

TRUST COMP ANIES
VERSUS THE BANKS
CONTEST WAGED BEFORE LEGis-
LATWE COMMITTEE ON BANKS
AND INSURANCE.
Madison, March 81

NldUlSOL, MAI Sl O1'
The committees on banks and IN
suraIce Of the two houses Of the leg
islature had a hearing Tuesday even
ing on the bills affecting banks and
trust companies. Most Of the discus
sion was confined to the Owen blil
No. 114s, which prohibits trust com
panies from receiving deposits evi-
denced by certificate, pass book
noe, receipt or other writing" The
trust companies strongly opposed this
bill on the ground that it would, if
passed, put them out of business. The
representatives Of the banks contend,
ed that trust companies should be
subjec. to the same tax burdens regu-
latiOns and restrictions as banks if
they were to be allowed to continue
doing business as at present The
contest between the banks and trust
companies arose largely because the
latter paid higher interess on deposits
than the former did. 1t developed
at the hearing that the banks Of Wis
consin are making from II to IS per
cent. dividends on their capital
stock. The representatives of the
TRUST companies admitted that their
dividends amounted to slightly less
than per cent. The committees did
not take any action on the bills
Those who spoke for the trust com
panies were Former Senator A. L.
Kreutzer of Wausau and former Lieu
tenant Governor Emil Baensch of
MIani.owoc The principal speakers
for the banks were E. r. Bowler of
Sheboygan, A. P. Kenney of Wau-
nakee, A. J. Moehlenpah of Clinton,
&C. R. Thompson Of Richland Center.
Andrew Jensen of Edgerton George
F. Morrill, of Ashland and S. NJ.
Smith of GAINESVILLE. Among the fifty
or more bankers and trust company
representatives outside of Madison
we're: William B'geIow. vice presi-
dent of the First National bank of

patch from the scene Of the indian
uprising in Oklahoma reports tina
Crazy Snake, leader Of the band OF
outlaws, has been captured after be
ing badly wounded, and that he has
been taken to the federal jail al
MuskOgee.
A Second Sitting Bull.
Hickory Stamping Ground, by com-
Ter to Henryetta, Okla, March 81
Crazy Snake, leader of the uprising OF
his clan Of negroes, half breeds and
Indians of the Greek nation, is report
ed still at large, though it is believed
that his capture cannot be delayed
much longer.
He is likened by those who know
him to Sitting Bull in point of intel
ligence and determination, and upon
his death or apprehension the outcome
OF the present disturbance rests.
One hundred militiamen and posses
of deputy sheriffs are securing the
hills and river bottoms for scores of
miles in every direction.
Colonel Hoffman, commanding the
troops here, set out in heavy marching
order at daybreak. During the day
five prisoners were brought back to
the base here, but none seemed of
importance. Up to date and includ-
ing the II captured Monday night,
over 40 captives have been taken and
MI in, Jo;I Of n M
from a distance to attend the pow
pow called by Crazy Snake to hear
his report of his mission to Washing
ton during the winter, did not know
there had been an uprising, and were
surprised when the news was given
them. They were placed under re
straint however, for fear they might
be just as willing to fight as to listen
to the harangue they had come to
hear.
There seems to be no reason to be-
Iieye there viii be a general encoun-
ter with the fugitives.
The moral effect Of the militia uni
forms and the CLINT Of their bayOnets
has been great. Upon their arrival at
Henryetta Sunday, the flight in small
detachments began. Crazy Snake is
thought to have few followers in his
immediate party. These, however
are understood from reports Of the
scouts, to be well mounted and wei
armed members of mis- light guard,
who are sworn to follow every com
mand Of their leader. They are sup
posed to be about twenty miles from
here in the vicinity of the North Can
adam river.
An early report that fifteen wagon
loads of Indians had been seen east of
here proved unfounded.
A signal corps of 20 men arrived
last night and today will attempt to
run telephone line seven miles be-
tween here and Henryetta. At pres
ent communication is very slow over
the rocky, mountainous road.
The list of fatalities since the
trouble began, reduced 10 the basis of
confirmed facts, is not large, consist
ing of Deputies Odom and Baum. who
were killed in the performance Of
their duties. and Dick" Barnett, a

Dawson Discovers JOKER
What is designated as a joker"
that cost me consumers Of tobacco in
this country nearly 100000 was
found yesterday in the existing reve-
nue. laws Of the United States, by
| Representative Dawson Of Iowa, who
at once introduced a bill to correct
the error.
Under the Dingley tariff law two
ounce packages Of tobacco sell to the
consumer at five cents each and four
ounce packages at 10 cents. In 1898
the war revenue tax of six cents per
pound additional was levied on tobac-
co. At the same time, in order to
serve the convenience Of the trade,
authorization was given for a reduc-
ton of the sizes Of packages from 2,
3 and 4 ounces to 1 %, 215 and 80
ounces, thus enabling the smoker to
procure a five cent and a 10 cent
package Of tobacco at the store"
In due time the war revenue tax
was repealed. Somebody forgot, Mr.
Dawson believes, to restore the pack
ages Of tobacco to the original sizes,
and hence ever since 1902, the con,
sumner of tobacco has been paying the
equivalent Of the war revenue tax to
manufacturers of tobacco.
According to the figures obtained
from the commissioner of internal
revenue, over 80 billion. of l %
ounce packages have been sold dur
ing the past six years. and over 12,-
OOO,O00,000 packages Of the , 1-3 ounce
size. Mr. Dawson figures out that
the purchaser of each small package
has been mulc1ed out of one cent and
the purchaser of the larger of two
cents, and hence the joker has cost
the consumer almost $4,000 600.
Mr.. DaWsOE's bill proposes to re-
store the packages to the original
sizes.
