BUCKET SHOP CRUSADE
 HAS BROUGHT RESULTS
Scores of Houses in Middle West Have Closed Since the Government Started the Suits at Wash
 ington.

Washington, May 2.--Results al ready have been accomplished ndl rectly by thescrusade of the depart ment of justice against the bucket shop business. In addition to the oi fees affected by the indictments scores of houses in the Middle. West have closed their doors. and others are expected to follow.
 The government Is putting forth every effort to bring to Washington fol trial the persons now under the pan and hopes to have the cases well Tn hand in time for the fall term of the district courts.
 should the efforts of the department towards breaking up the business en' tirely prove unavailing by prosecution under existing laws, it is said tna' new legislation will be asked or cor gress. This probably will take the form of making it an offense to com municate between the states by wlre or otherwise, information intended ioi inc purpose of conducting or maih taining bucket shop and also making if an ofense to lease wires TOT th' purpose.

HOUSE MAY CALL FOR PAPERS
Democrats and Insurgents May Insist on Seeing Documents With
 held by Committee.

Washington, May 3.-By vote of seven to five the Ballinger-Pinchot in vestigating committee denied the re- quest of L. D. Brandeis attorney for l.. R. Glavis, that documentary evi- dence be called for to establish def. nitely the date of Attorney General Wickersham's approval of the charge submitted to President Taft. Several votes were taken by the committee and the result was the same in each instance, Representative Madison os Kansas voting with the Democrats. The action of the committee shuts off all attempts on the part of the Glavis- Pinchot lawyers to get at evidence Of a documentary character bearing on the date of the attorney generals re- port. However, the suggestion was thrown out that Secretary Ballinger vet had an avenue of attack through a resolution of the house of representa- tives
 If was pointed out that the Republi- can insurgents and Democrats having demonstrated their control of the house can. if they desire to do so, cas- ily mass resolution calling on MT. Wickersham to produce the documents for which the Investigating commit tee has decided not to call.

JURY SYSTEM 4 RELIC
Judge E. H. Sullivan Offers a Sugges- tion That He Believes Will Be
 an Improvement.

Spokane, Wash, April 30.- "Jurors elected at regular inter. vals by vote of the people or ap- pointed by the courts and paid a salary of $3,000 or more year would. I believe, greatly improve our jury system, which is relic"
 Judge E. H. Sullivan, dean Of the Spokane county superior court, said this at the close of long drawn out case Tn suggesting solution of a problem of nation wide interest. He added:
 "The number of meu in this service could be cut down from twelve to six or five and the jury composed entirely of members of the legal profession. Each coun- ty could have a set or several sets of regular jurors trained in the law and, to avoid prejudice and bias, they would be exchanged in the various counties. The other smaller regulations could be worked out in detail by jury commission.
 "Under the present system we select a jury composed of good business men, farmers and labor ing men. They are honest and level headed as a rule and are here to uphold the advance of our laws; but what do they know about the real meanings of phrases in the law? We ask a judge, who has probably spent thirty or forty years in studying the law and watching its develop mont, to write in a few hundred words the instructions, which, in a great part, are so much Greek to the average juryman. That part of the system is radically wrong.
 "Another thing is the average business or professional man or even laborer has not the time or inclination to devote to this branch of service ard, as a result, some of the cases presented for adjudication are not given the at- tention they should have. It IS also true that a lawyer who is sure of his legal right and his facts would much rather trust his case to a judge, while if he is not certain he prefers tsktne chances with a jury"

 WON BY RAILROAD

 In handing down his opinion in the case the court severely criti- cised Prosecutor Horsey. The shipment in question was made from Fayetteville to a point in the southeastern part of the state aud the prosecution charged that the railroad shipped the goods into Oklahoma and thence back iutoiArkansas for the purpose of making the shipping bill as large as possible,
 CommissionlE Exceeds Powers.
 The opinion of the court was as follows:
 "First, no statute has been called which authorized the Rail- road Commission to enact rule A. to-wit: In case of failure on the part of the shipper to leave rout- ing instructions, 1t shall be the duty of the railroad receiving the shipment to forward 1t via the route that makes the lowest rate.
 "Second, in the absence of such a statute the commission is with out power to adopt that rule.
 "Thrd, if, therefore, the stat ute authorized the adoption of that rule, it would have no appli cation 10 interstate commerce, bu would be confined in its adoption to intrastate commerce.
 State Is Not Concerned.
 "Fourth, the attempt of state officerto enforcean unconstitution' al statute or a proceeding without authority which does not affect the state in it's sovereign or goy. ernmental capacity, is an illegal act and the officer is stripped ol his official character and IS sub ject in his person 10 the conse- ouences of his official conduct.

 Following this the law govern ing the filling of the vacancy was read by City Attorney Lnndy, aud, is being clear that it could only be legally filled by an elec- tion, it was necessary to choose an acting mayor. After some discussion Mir. Lundy was chosen for the place, and he will soon issue proclamation for the elec- tion of a new mayor.
 To Check Census Euumerators.
 The question of the city census was discussed, and it was deemed advisable for the credit of the of the city to check the work of the erumerators. The city clerk was authorized to employ K. Du- senbury to check the Third ward. E. J. Lundy volunteered to do the work in the Second, and M. s. Bates was secured for the First. An ordinance was passed to make unlawful the drinking of beer, whisky, etc and congregat- ing aud loitering at the rear of saloons. This was aimed largely at the "can" trade, and 1t is claimed will do away, st least to great extent. with the evils re- sulting from practice of minors, who sometimes are said 10 furnish money to men to buy beer and bring it out to them. The ordi- nance was requested by saloon keepers.
 Dr. K. F. Watkins having de- clined the position of third mem Der of the health board, the coun- cilmen unanimously selected Dr. | c. Cochran. The sentiment was was very strong for pr. Cochran, expressions being freely made by all present that he would perform the important duties of that office without fear or favor.

OPPOSE HIGH RATES
COMMERCE COMMISSION BELIEVE ADVANCE IN FREIGHT CHARGES
 NOT JUSTIFIED.
THE STOCK MARKET AFFECTED
Wall Street Flnanciers Are Postponina Their Plans Until the Fight for ln- crease of Rates Is Settled-Laree Earning of Railroads.

New York, May 3.-Freight rates have become paramount issue in the stock market. Practically all of the railroads have filed notice that they intend to make advances effective June l which will average about IS per cent in the western states. At the same time it becomes known unoffi- cially that the interstate commerce commissioners object to these ad- vances on the ground that they can not be justified in the face of the largest railroad earnings on record. It may be said in passing that the tonnage of freight west of the Mississippi just now is the greatest in the history of the country. It is possible that the commissioners may change their minds but the leading bankers are greatly disturbed by the unexpected opposition to this advance in rates. The first evidence that there had been a disagreement was seen several days ago when a leading firm of bankers decided not to participate at this time in the undertaking of St. Pauls pro posed issue of convertible bonds. It cannot be said, strictly speaking, that the St. Paul has suffered the indignity of having it's underwriting turned down, but there has been a postpone ment of all financial plans because of doubt as to the success of the move. ment of all financial plans because of doubt as to the success of the move. ment to advance freight rates.
 Wall Street Has Fears.
 This brings the government once more in the foreground of Wall street and seems to justify the fears of those financers who believe that politics is destined to play star part in all stock market proceedings this year. So Respondent have many leading bankers become that they look for the return of Theodore Roosevelt with re
 lief They believe that in order to save congress to the Republicans he will repudiate much that has beer done ia his name and put himself al tue ntdu VI tne uOftmcHt tD ItelDIt confidence in business. The railroad interests, while admitting the tre
 mendous earnings at present, arc
 pointing ahead to the time when there
 win be a radical difference in this re spect Many of them have already
 made generous advances In wages an< the operating expenses are increasing
 at rapid rate. Leading systems have
 reported large net losses for Marci although the gross earnings were higher than previous records. Witf the new schedules of wages in effec the operating expenses will be stil more increased and instead of rumorl of increased dividends the talk vii be possible decrease. Leadking rail
 roads have at present announced large financing that must be done to the ex tent of s200,6o0, 900. It will be diff cult to put this business through i the investing public gets the ide' that surpluses are going to shrink.
