COLD STORAGE ID
 HAVE INSPECTION

WASHINGTON. D. C., Nov. 2S.-- The senate committee on manufac- turing is to report early at the com
 ing session of congress on the con ditions and practices of cold storage. During the senate-s investigation of the high cost of living Senator Lodge introduced a resolution calling for an inquiry into the business. Extended hearings were given by the commit- tee on manufactuse before congress adjourned, and still other hearings were held by Senator Hayburn in Chi cago during the recess.
 Practically all the testimony Is now
 in and the report is beng drafted. It was understood the report would fol-
 low the recommendation made by Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemistry. He made the
 first statement to the committee. and his testimony served as a basis for the following investigation.
 This means that the senate will un- dertake to regulate the inspection of products going into and coming out of cold storage warehouses. Dr. Wiley declares there is no uniform system of inspecting food products which go into cold storage. as the
 warehouseman does not own the goods and so has no interest in them, except to preserve them.
 As there is no uniform time for holding food products in cold stor- age. according to the government chemist the goods may be held in definitely. f necessary. in order to nOid up prices. or provide market.

PENSACOLA, Fla, Nov. 2S.-The boldest lynching that ever occurred in Florida, and one which necessitated train crew, occurred today at noon, about eleven miles east of Pensaco- i, Ia, when a mob of masked men. es- timated at between forty and sixty. held up train No. 4, bound for this city, and overpowering the officers and crew, took Bob Matthews, an ex- convict, from the train and lynched him in full view of several hundred passengers, many of whom crawled beneath seats and secreted them selves in various places in the coaches.
 When the lynching was over the mob dispursed. leaving the body of the negro dangling from tree. from which it was cut down and brought to ] the city by officers. In the fight which occurred Deputy Sheriff Bow man, who had the prisoner in charge: Sheriff Collins of Santa Rosa county. who was accompanying the deputy to this city. and the train !crew were all injured
 | Matthews attempted to crimisaliy 1 assault Miss Snowden, young lady iof prominence, at Klondyke, east of | Pensacola, about two months ego. He was captured, and for fear that he would be lynched he was taken 10 Walton county for safe keeping. This afternoon he was given a trial and the deputy sheriff was sent to Walton county for the man. He was returning with him when the train was stopped and the prisoner taken from him.
 The train crew aided the officer as much as possible by locking and barring the doors to the car, but these were shattered. windows broken out, and while the conductor and
 fiagnan were held at the point of re- vosyers others of the mob pitched the negro boldly through the car win
 dow to masked men on the outside.
 and he was quickly hanged to near

NEW YORK, Nov. 2s.-Two boys of the same age were Kidnapped in Brooklyn last Saturday night, and yes terday their relatives received similar letters demanding s5O0o in each case for the return of the child.
 One of the boys was eight-year-oid Michael Fritzi, of No. 720 Fifth ave nue. The other was Giuseppe Longc, eight years old. of No. lS6 Twenty first street.
 Want to see some moving pic shows is sad to have been the means by which the Fritzi boy was led away.
 According to Charles Curry, a Ieighbor of the Fritzis. his own boy was accompanying the Fritzi child when a man wearing light sweater accosted the boys.
 Want to see som moving pie tures?" said the man.
 Yes" readily answered the young sters.
 They were taken into a moving picture show near their homes, and after the performance, according to the Curry boy, the man took the Fritzi boy down town on the promise of taking him to another and bigger picture show.

the three regulars who voted for the
amendment were all staunch friends
OF Chief Forester Pinchot and that
they had favored the election of
members of the committee by the
House to insure an impartial jury to
try what is popularity known as the
Ptnchot-B -Ballinger case. They were
Representatives Ames of Massachu-
setts and Fish and Parsons of New
York.
The insurgent ranks had but one
deserter, Steenerson of Minnesota.
Strangely enough, Fitzgerald of New
York was the only Democrat to cast
his vote with the Republican regu-
lars. although he led the minority
fight on the joint resolution.
Republican leaders attributed their
defeat to the large number of absen-
tees but the tide Of battle was really
turned by Mr.. Pinchots three friends.
Practically the entire day was de-
alton Of the joint resolution which
was taken up after the reading Of the
Presidents interstate commerce and
antitrust message had been conclud-
ed. The Democrats made their fight
on an attempt to narrow the pro-
posed investigation to the general
land office, contending that as no
such charges as had been made
against Secretary Balinger had been
preferred against Forester Pinchot
there was no reason for dragging the
latter into the inquiry.
The resolution as it goes to the
senate provides for an investigating
committee Of IL members, six to be
appointed by the President Of the
senate and six to be elected by the
house.
