HOUSE PASSES BILL.
White Slave Measure Goes Through
BY Viva Voce Vote.

Washington, Jan. 12.-By via voce
vote, the house today passed the Ben
nett-Sabbath white slave bill
The house refused to concur in the
senate amendments to the Pinchot-
Ballinger resolution and decided to
ask for conference.
The speaker named the following
conferees: Representatives DaIzen of
Pennsylvania, Smith of Iowa and Fitz-
gerald of New York.
The senate joint resolution is a
compromise measure, the basis of
which was the Jones' Humphrey reso-
luton. A portion of the resolution
reported from the house committee on
rules was incorporated in the measure
and this included all of that part
which provided for the compulsory at
tendance of witnesses and the punish
ment of those who refused to obey the
orders of the investigation committee.
1t provides for the election of the
house members by the house itself in
accordance wit hthe wish of that body
expressed by close vote. The send
ing of the resolution to conference is
mere formality and indicates that
the contest over the form of the reso-
luton is near at hand

EXPECTS FIVE YEARS.
But Cohen, Who Eloped With Miss De
Janon, Says He Doesn't Care.

Chicago, Jan. 12.-'I suppose they
will give me about five years for this, -
said Frederick Cohen, the waiter, to-
day to Miss Roberta De Janon, the
heriess whom he is accused of abduct-
ing. But I don't care. 1 have made
you happy for a short time, any way,
and that is enough for me-
Cohen and Miss De Janon met at the
Harrison street police station for the
first time since their arrest. They had
a nice little talk together, to use the
girls expression.
Cohen pinched her cheek and told her
he had read in the papers that she
thought more of her dog than she did
of him. She denied strongly
you know / DON'T" said she.
"A2l right, then,'' said Cohen.
The plans for taking the couple back
to Philadelphia were changed twice
during the day. First it was decided
they should go today, then the de-
tectives said it would be tomorrow
Then the final announcement was made
that the party would leave for the east
this afternoon.
The delay was caused, it was said, by
the necessity of having to redeem some
jewelry pawned by Miss De Janon The
Philadelphia detectives found it all
sooner than they thought they would.

TALKS ABOUT DRESS.
Chicago University Professor Lectures
Before Women's Club.

Chicago, Jan 12-One lone man stood
before 200 women and lectured on "Wo-
mems Dress" When he had concluded
he was besieged with questions and had
Prof. William I. Thomas of the Univer-
sfty of Chicago and his, audience was
composed of the members of the Uni
versity Guild, an exclusive Evanston
organization, of which Mrs. James A.
Patten is president, who gathered in
the assembly hall of the Orrington
Lunt library.
do you think it a just accusation to
say that women dress only to please
men?" was one of the first questions
put by a member of Prof. Thomas
audience.
No" was the reply II regard it as
sort of feminine competitive game. 1t
is the natural desire to excel in a thing
in which they are vastly interested,
which causes a great deal of the ex-
travagance.'
Really, don't you think that women
spend a great deal more on clothes than
they would otherwise, merely to please
their husbands?" asked another.
mo, I think very little dressing is
done for the sake of husbands; it is
chiefly for other women was the dis
couraging reply.
Why is it that while women's dress
has certainly grown no less attractive
within the last two centuries, the dress
ug1y?'
without moments hesitation the
reply came:
1T is simply that in a life where
activity counts the most utility in dress
and little else is taken into conSidera-
ton. One advantage which mems
clothes have over that of women is
that they last longer and do not cost as
much"
Among the statements made by Prof
l.
begun was the following:
.As wealth became a more and more
potent factor in social life, man began
to use his wife as a lay figure upon
which he could hang signs of his pros
perity Women of the upper classes
were not expected to do any sort. OF
work, and the route was a comfortable
one to travel. That state. of affairs is
now becoming untrue. Women are
awakening and taking part in the So

TO KEEP ON TRYING.
Continued Effort to Catch Men Higher
Up in Sugar Frauds.

New York. Jan. 12.-With the
swearing in today of a new federal
grand jury came the prospect of fur
ther DEVELOPMENTS, possibly of a sensa-
tional nature. in connection with the
sugar underweighing frauds. Posi-
bility of happenings of significance in
fact that the annual meeting of the
stockholders of the American Sugar
Refining company was held today. At
this meeting a vote will be taken on
the proposition to increase the direc-
tors from nine to eleven.
One director has already resigned
and another has declined reelection.
1t is expected that the new body of
federal investigators will endeavor to
place responsibility for the admitted
frauds upon shoulders other than
those of the humble checkers now in
the Blackwclls Island penitentiary.

TO PRISON FOR STEALING WATCH
Boys Convicted of Larceny in District
Court Today.

Three criminal cases have been dis
posed of from todays docket in the
district court. Two took a jury trial
and were convicted and another plead
ed guilty.
Robert Lee Webb. who lives about
two miles west of North Topeka,
charged with striking groceryman
Orville c. Betz over the head with a
club when he came to collect a bill
was found guilty. Sentence has not
been pronounced.
Wilbur McLain, charged with steal
ing a shotgun from a dwelling house
and for whom Judge Dana appointed
Joseph Reed attorney, was allowed to
plead guilty to petit larceny by fixing
the price of the shotgun below $50.
The larceny from a dwelling phase of
the charge was not prosecuted. His
sentence was deferred.
Floyd Wilhoyt, charged with steal
ing a watch at the Rock Island depot,
was found guilty by jury verdict of
grand larceny. In his case the judge
appointed John Newell TO defend.
There was not the slightest escape
but in the value of the watch, which
jewe1rymen testified was worth from
s22 to $2S. The jury found that Will
hoyt took the watch and that it was
worth $25, making the, crime grand
larceny. Wilhoyt is one of the scourge
of tramps drifting into tho city from
the east, expecting to find buffaloes to
ride upon the streets. and Indians to
hunt in the neighboring pastures.

THEY ARE HARD TO HOLD.
French Aviators at Los Angeles Are
Anxious to Fly.

Aviation Field. Los Angeles. Cal,
Jan. 12-Sunrise disclosed a cloudless
sky with a light breeze from the east
promising ideal conditions for the days
events. The aviators were on the
grounds with the sun and Paulhan. who
had announced last evening that he
would surely try for the altitude rec
ord today if weather conditions were
favorable could hardly be restrained
from going into the air. His Farman
biplane was all tuned up and Edmund
Cleary. who manages the syndicate of
French flyers during the brief periods
when its members are manageable. had
a hard task keeping him down to
earth
Perhaps it was because Mime. Paul
han was not present that Paulhan
wanted to get into action at once. Yes
terday when he was all ready to make
his first try for a worlds record in
America, it was Nine. Paulhan who
wept and gesticulated and entreated,
pointing to the west whence a semi
gale was blowing and at last clinging
to her husband until she had his prom
ise not to go 5000 feet high in his aero
plane that day.
Glenn H. Curtiss at work also in the
tent city, where the airships were,
smiled when he saw that Paulhan was
so eager to break a record.
There is plenty of time for record
breaking with aeroplanes.' he said
1.-The sport is new yet and those who
are indulging in it now are only feel
ing their way along. I'll get up five or
six thousand feet after a while, but
first we want to be sure of our en-
gines.''
Charles K. Hamilton, the Connecticut
aviator, VINO has been doing some SEN
sational flights recently, was another
man who was hard to hold down to-
day. When he reached the aviation
field and found that his mechanicians
had tuned up his Curtiss biplane he
wanted to make trial fight but finally
was dissuaded by his manager.

RAINS in KANSAS
Whole State Swept by Warm
Winter Storm.
Begins During Night and Con-
tinues into Day.
MAY CAUSE FLOODS.
Frozen Ground Causes Water to
Run Off Surface.
Extends to Extreme Limit Of
the State.

Today is making a strong effort to
break the. January rain record for
Kansas. At o'clock this morning the
rain which started last night and is
still coming had netted an inch and
2S hundredths. The record rain
for January is 1.S4 inches. Accord
ing to the local weather observers, the
rain is general throughout the state
and was caused by a "low pressure
area" over southern Utah. This rain
fall will undoubtedly raise the Kaw
river to semi-flood stage, as it carries
the snow with it.
The temperature has not been be-
low the freezing point, 80 degrees,
since Monday morning. The ther-
mometer registered 40 at o'clock
this morning, and had dropped back
TO 80 at O'Clock this morning. A
continuation of this weather for
traces of snow, but take away the
coating of hard packed ice beneath
and add between two and three inches
