NO WORK FOR JURY.
Unusual Condition Develops in Har-
in Hardin County Court.


Special to Times-Republican.
Eldora, March 24-Something of a
most unusual nature in the proceed
ings of the district court happened
here this week. Judge Lee called the
court together Monday, and adjourned
Tuesday evening for the week on ac
count of lack of business. The jury
was paid off and dismissed. This
speaks well for HafciR county, and
should be a source Of great pride to
the taxpayers OF the county. There is
some difference between paying two
sets of jurymen for three weeks time,
and for two days time. Judge Lee left
Wednesday for his home at Ames
where ne will remain for the balance
Of the week. Court will be in session
next week, but there will be no jury
cases.

PUBLICITY PROVISION OF
 CORPORATION TAX LAW
House Against Appropriation to Carry
 1t Into Effect.

Washington, Feb. 17.-It is well un- derstood among the majority leaders of the house that no immediate effort will be. made to meet the request of the treasury department for an appro- priation of s50;000 with which to carry into effect the publicity provision of the corporation tax law. The appro- priation would necessarily have to come from the ways and means com nittee authorizing the appropriations committee to bring sin a bill This would be necessary even if the item were to be tackled on to anyone of the deficiency appropriation bills.
 It was said today that Champ Clark the minority leader. went to Chairman Payne of the ways and means com mittee and served notice that if any attempt was made to patch up this provision of. the law through the ways and means committee he would move that the whole tariff question be re- opened Conference between republi- can leaders were frequent today on, the subject and it was declared tonight that the house would not try to give the treasury department. the approprf- ation requested.

ADMINISTRATION RAILROAD BILL
 REiNTRoDUcED IN HOUSE.
Language of Bill Modified, New Sec
 tions Added.

Washington, Feb. 17.-The adminis- tration railroad bIlI amending the in terstate commerce act, originally in- troduced in the house by Representa- tive Townsend of Michigan, was rein troduced by him today with a number of important amendments drawn by Attorney General Wickersfam which change the bill in the matter of the creation of the court of commerce., in the regulation of stocks and bonds and in the inclusion of electric railroads in the scope of the measure.
 In many particulars. the language of fhe bill is modified and new sections are added. The amendment rotating to the commerce court limits it's power to that of a federal circuit court. The stock and bond provision is amended so as to permit of the reorganization of railroads, and tine merger of rail- roads not directly prohibited. The act establishes the general principle that no stock shall be issued by railroads except at par, and no bonds except at their reasonable market or selling val ue as ascertained by the interstate commerce commission, and that where either stock or bonds is paid for in property, it's fair value must be ascer- tained by the commission.
 The electric railroads in the amend ed bill are granted the concession they desired as ascertained at the recent hearings. wherein. it was complained that the bill was a discrimination in favor of the steam lines to che f1nan- cial detriment of the electric roads.
