CONSIDERS WOMAN'S PILLOW
is HER SAFE DEPOSIT VAULT

NEW YORK, Feb. T.-Custom has
decided that d woman's pillow is her
safe deposit vault at night, and as
such can be considered judicially as a
safe place for the security of her jew
elry or other valuables as the vaults
of the United States treasury.
Justice Foster of the general sessions
court handed down this opinion today
in declining to return to pawnbrokers
with whom they had been pledged jew
els worth nearly $4,000 stolen from Ida
Emerson Hills.
Miss Hills had put the jewelry under
her pillow when retiring with her
mother after a new years night party
i'm the house of her brother-in-law,
Charles H. Zimmerman. When she
awoke next morning she found the
Jewels had been stolen and Zimmerman
had disappeared. Zimmerman was ar
rested and today was sentenced to
Sing Sing.
The pawnbrokers claimed Miss Hills
had been guilty of negligence in not
putting her jewelry in safe place.
Judge Fosters dictum unset their
claims.

BIG MEAT PACKERS
ON WITNESS STAND
Competition, Rather Than Combina-

for the Present Exorbitant
Cost of Living

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Feb. IL
Competition, rather than combination
or agreement among packers, fixes the
prices of meats, according to testi-
mony of packing company officials
before Special Examiner Dillon here
today, in the investigation of moth
ods of the nine companies doing busi-
ness in Missouri.
A general denial that prices are
fixed at meetings of representatives
of the companies was entered by the
three witnesses examined
The greater part of the day was
taken up in learning the ramifications
of the different companies.
G. e. Swift Of Chicago said that
Swift & Co. of Illinois own stock in
the Schwarzschild & Sulzberger COM
pany and also owned, through the
estate of the late Gustavus F. Swift,
$7,O00,OO0 in the stock of the National
Packing company of New Jersey.
He said that Swift & Co. of Mis-
souri, and Swift & Co. of West Vir-
ginia are selling companies for the
Illinois company, to which all busi-
ness and dividends are reported.

BLACKMAIL OF
STATE SENATE
Bridge Company Forced
by New York Legisla-
ture to Pay Solons
REFUSAL is RESENTED
Startling Evidence Is Ad-
duced at Inquiry in
Albany
tAssociated Pressl

A LBANY, N. Y, Feb. lis. Fred
II Nixon was the third name that
A. Senator Ben Conger says Hiram
G. Moe wrote on one of the envelopes
that carried $4,000 to the state capitol
nine years ago to buy protection for
the American Bridge company.
The name Of the former speaker Of
the assembly. announced today by Con-
ger on the stand, completes the trio.
Speaker Nixon's envelope, according to
Conger, like Senator lothian p. Aids.
held $1,000. The remainder of the fund
--$4000--was in the envelope given to
Nixon's lieutenant, Assem- blyman Jean
Larue Burnett.
According to Conger, from 1901 to
1905, a systematic campaign was con-
Quoted at Albany against the treas
urer of the bridge companies. For
three years the companies paid tribute.
In 1905 notice came from Albany that
it would be to their interests to for-
ward to the capital $l0,OOO.
The men who controlled the bridge
companies met in Syracuse and agreed
not to pay. AS Conger expresses H.
1--WE decided we would not be piack-
mailed any longer
In the four preceding years measures
hostile to the bridge interests mad
been introduced regularly, but they
always failed to pass. But in 1900 the
legislature passed the highway act.
which contained a provision against
which the bridge combination had long
contended AS a result of this law 6O
per cent of the bridge companies were
forced out of business in New York
state.
Ready to Hear It
Aids accuser was on the stand all
day. and this was his story. He told 1t
under cross examination, and Aids
attorneys seemed quite ready to let
him tell it.
Their purpose apparently was to
brand Conger as giver OF brlpes, as
a representative of the bridge inter-
ests in the legislature and to show
that in bringing the charges against
Aids he was actuated by desire for
revenge because of Aids hostility TO
the business interests in which Conger
had invested.
Conger followed their lead with a
readiness that can be explained by q
desire to convince his colleagues that
he would not have handled bribe
money unless he and his business as
sociates had been "held up" by legis-
Iators and that the bridge interests in
the past had to choose between black
mail and ruin.
S. Fred Nixon probably held more
power than any other member of the
assembly that occupied the speakers
chair. He entered the lower house In
1887 and was elected speaker in 1889.
He ruled the assembly continuously
up to the time of his death in 1905
The name of Col. George w. Dunn,
chairman of the Republican state COM
mittee in 1902, was brought definitely
into the evidence today. thus making
him available as witness at future
Investigations.
Conger said he called on Dunn at his
office here and made contribution for
both himself and the bridge companies.
He did not say how much 1t was.

VOTERS MUST TIE
TO 1910 REGISTER
SUPREME COURT RENDERS AN
ELECTION DECISION
Contention of Attorney That Cities
Holding Elections In Even Num-
bered Years Can Go Back
to "Odds" Is Denied
Associated Pressl

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 17.-By a
decision of the state supreme court
rendered today only those voters whose
names appear on the new great regis
ter for 1910 will be allowed to par
ticipate in the general primary cleo
ton to be held next August
This decision, which was written by
Judge f. w. Henshaw, means that the
great registers of voters for 1908 and
1909 cannot be Used in the veriication
of the petitions of candidates who
seek their party nominations for state
officers az the coming primaries.
The decision was the result of an
application for writ of mandate
filed by Henry Grieb of this city to
compel Registrar j. H. Zemansky and
the election commissioners to use the
registers of 1908 and 1909, as we'll as
the new great register of 1870 in veri-
flying the papers of candidates and to
recognize and use these registers as
supplementary to the new great regis
ter in preparing for the primary cleo
ton itself. In applying for the writ
it was contended that the new great
register would not be complete by
August
The law passed in 1889 governing city
elections IN LllS state contained d
proviso that municipalities which held
municipal elections during even-num-
bered years prior to the completion
of the new great register could use the
old registers. The contention of Grieb
that this provision also applies to the
new primary law was denied by the
court, which held that the proviso was
made only to cover cases in which
elections were held prior to the reg
llar primaries. The court also holds
that seven months provides ample
time for the registration of voters and
that It is not fair to the candidates
to compel them to seek the old regist
ters for the verification of their NOM
ination papers.
In dismissing the contention of the
petitioner the court declared that the
ten days allowed election commissions
for the verification of nomination
papers was so short that it would be
a matter of great Inconvenience for
them to use more than one great reg
lister of voters. The court used the
following language:
"It is conceded by the court that the
primary law is both complex and
onerous, but we are advised that 1t
was adopted in response to very
general and popular demand. This
being SO, it is but fair to assume that
the vast majority of electors, who find
in this law a panacea for all political
ills. will flock to the registration
booths and qualify themselves to take
part in the important primary cleo
tion which follows

ICEBERG WRECKS
COAST STEAMER
ALASKAN, SHIP YUCATAN IS
SUNK IN STRAIT
Steel Vessel Rams Into Glacial Floater
Off Chicahaeof lsIand-Doomed
Craft Goes Down Soon
After Striking
Associated Press1

JUNEAU, Alaska, Feb. 1.-THE
Alaska Steamship company's steel
steamship Yucutan, bound from VAL
dez to Seattle with sixty-five passen-
gers, struck a huge iceberg in Icy
strait at $3.50 o'clock yesterday morn
ing and sank eight minutes later in
six fathoms Of water There was no
loss of life, and so far as known no
person was injured.
The shipwrecked passengers and
crew are camped on Chichagof Island,
and will be brought here tomorrow by
the steamer Georgia, which left Ju-
neau for the purpose soon after news
of the wreck was received. First Mate
Gustafson of the Yucatan and Captain
Raymond Jaeger of the fishing schoon>
er Alexandria arrived here today with
the story of the loss of the steamer.
The Yucatan was bound for Gyp-
sum on Chichagof island to take on
quantity of gypsum. When Icy strait
was reached the water was smooth,
but there were great fields of ice and
the snow was falling so heavily that
it was possible to see only a short dis
tance ahead.
Captain w. P. S. Porter was on the
bridge, and with him was the pilot
Captain John Johnson, who command
ed the steamship Ohio when she was
lost in British Columbia waters last
summer. Slow bell was ordered and
the steamer crept through the ice.
Ship Rams Iceberg
Suddenly an iceberg loomed up
ahead and the steamship rammed it,
tearing a great hole in the side of the
vessel, into which water poured
quickly.
Full steam ahead was ordered, and
the Yucatan was headed for Chichagof
island, where she was beached at a
point where there is six fathoms of
water at high tide.
The boats were lowered and all on
board were taken to shore without
mishap or confusion, the ten woman
passengers being removed first.
Food and bedding and the United
States mail were also taken ashore.
On the island the castaways found
cabins to shelter them from the cold,
and with abundant food, clothing,
blankets and wood they are not likely
to endure hardship. Many of the pas
sengers lost all their personal effects.
Soon after the crew had landed Cap
tain Johnson, First Mate Gustafson
and four sailors put off in a lifeboat
they sighted the fishing schooner
Alexandria.
Captain Jaeger of the Alexandria
offered the use of a gasoline launch
to continue the trip to Juneau. Cap
tain Johnson and the sailors turned
back to the island in the lifeboat and
Jaeger and Gustafson set out for Ju-
neau in the launch. Unfortunately
the launch broke down after going a
short distance and the two men had
difficulty in getting their craft to q
Hoonah Indian village.
The Indians refused to allow the
