Albany, N. Y, April 11.-Declaring
that recent revelations in the Aids.
Conger bribary inquiry and the facts
brought out in the insurance inves~
tigation by Superintendent OF Insur-
ance Hotchkiss, have caused every
honest citizen to tingle with shame
and Indignation, and have made ir-
resiatible the demand that every
proper means should be employed to
purge and to purify. Governor Hughes
sent special message o.the legis-
lature tonight recommending IAN i'm
mediate, impartial, thorough and un-
sparing investigation into legislative
practices and procedure Gnd into the
use of corrupt or improper means for
the promotion or defeat of legisla-
tion.
Accompanying the message was
pl eliminary report of Superintendent
Hotchkill outlining the facts develop
ed at the fire insurance investigation
in New York, and setting for the diff
culties encountered in following up
the various leads which have been
uncovered. The superintendent says
that obstacles apparently insurmount-
able have developed in the course of
the inquiry. These, in his Judgment,
further investigation, but he
has no power to pursue them and
therefore he laid the facts thus far
developed, before the governor for
action.

Made A Profit
BEST QUARTER IN HISTORY OF
DEPARTMENT ACCORDING
TO HITCHCOCK.
Stated That a Saving Of Ten Million
Dollars Over the Past Year Will
Be Shown When the Records Are
Completed - Good Showing for the
Present Administration.

Washington, April 11.-Basing his
conclusions on the auditors return
of postal receipts and expenditures
for the first half of the fiscal year
and on preliminary returns for the
third quarter of the year, which
closed March 81, Postmaster General
Hitchcock predicted today that the
first year of the present administra-
ton would show a decrease of over
ten million dollars in the deficit OF
$17,480,000 handed down from the
preceding year. The deficit from the
first half of the current year was
s4,072,000, as against $1O,2S5,00 for
the first half of last year, a reduc
ton of over six millions in six
months.
The recent publication of the audi
tors return for the quarter ended
December 81, disclosed the fact that
the service had been conducted dur
ing that period at an actual profit Of
$2,115,000, the largest surplus re-
corded, it is stated, for any quarter
in the history of the department.
Postmaster General Hitchcock ex-
pressed the belief that final figures
for the quarter ended March 81, also
would show a surplus of clost to two
millions.

The first man "Sweated" by the

for the hand of Miss Ella Gaygan, a
handsome young woman of seven

with more favor on Meyer, despite
his being married, than on the ex-

TRIAL HAS BEEN ATTRACTING
MUCH ATTENTION IN STATE
OF ILLINOIS.
Defense Was That SayIor Attacked
Dr.. Miller Without Provocation -
Jury Was Out 36 Hours and the
Verdict Was Surprise As a Dis
agreement Was Looked for.

Watseka, ILL.,, April 11.-Dr. w. r.
Miller and Mrs. J. B. Sayler, whose
names have been soupled in the Say
ler murder trial, today were found
guilty of manslaughter for the slay
ing of J. B. Sayler of Crescent City,
husband of the woman, last July.
John Grunden, medicine vender,
from Oklahoma, and father of Mrs.
Sayler, was acquitted by the jury.
Punishment was fixed by the jury
in DR.. Miller's case at twelve years
Imprisonment in the penitentiary,
while Imprisonment for three years
in the penitentiary was allotted Mrs.
Saylor.
The trial, which occupied nearly a
month, and which has held Z. large
share of the attention of the ress-
dents of Iroquois county since the
killing of DR.. J. B. Sayler last year,
cafe to a speed close The general
expectation was that the jury which
had been deliberating more than 30
hours, would disagree. Late in the
afternoon, when more than ten bal
lots had been taken, agreement was
reached OH the manslaughter verdict
against DR.. Miller and Mrs. Sayler,
and of acquittal for her father.
Golda Sayler sat beside her moth
er, Mrs. Sayler. She wept as she
entered the court room When the
verdict finding Mrs. Sayler guilty,
was read, she threw herself into lhe
arms of her daughter and sobbed
convulsively. Coda sought to cof-
fort her mother and carressed and
kissed her.
Mrs. Miller clung weeping to her
husband when the verdict came, and
he clasped her to him. Their boy,
EringtOn, was not present.
The court room was hushed as the
jury was polled and attorney Fred
P. Morris made the formal fotion for
new trial for the convicted two.
States Attorney John P. Palissard
agreed to setting the motion for argu-
fent on April 30.
The crime for which the defend
ants. DR.. Miller and Mrs. Sayler,
were found guilty, was the Staying Of
d. B. Sayler, in the parlor of his own
home. The state in the trial brought
out much less concerning alleged in
timacy of Mrs. Sayler and DR.. MIL
Ter than expected, and scoffed at the
plea Of self defense advanced, to-
gether with the story of the defend
ants that Mr.. Sayler precipitated his
death by attacking DR.. Miller with a
hatchet without prOvocation.,

Washington, April Unwilling
at this time to rtndtr decisions in the
dissolution suits against the STAN
dar Oil and the so-called tobacco
trust, the supreme court of the
United States today ordered a rear
gument of these cases. This post
pones the final disposition of the ap-
plication of the Sherman antitrust
law to these corporations for wetks,
ind probably until after next Octo-
ber The present term will end

The immediate cause Of the rt-

to have been the recent death Of

seven justices actively at work on

It is believed the court will not

fies the Insurgents to Cast Their
Vote With Democrats in Deposins
Him - Clark Says Minority May
Cut Running Expenses.

Washington, April 11.-Almost the
entire 'Insurgent'' strength of the
house was joined with the democrats
today in what was generally ac-
knowledged to be an additional re-
buke to Speaker Cannon.
A conference report on the legisla
tive, executive and judicial appro-
priatiOn bill, contained an agreement
to appropriate for the expenses OF
automobiles previously provided for
Speaker Cannon and Vice President
Sherman. The house reiterated it's
disapproval Of these expenditures
and by vote of Ill to 1872 refused
to agree to the report, sending it
back to the cOnferees for further
consideration.
After this action had been taken,
Mr.. Cannon leaving the chair, went
to the republican side of the house
and there delivered a speech that
contained much Of sarcasm and in
vective. He again defied the insur-
surgents and intimated that they
lacked the courage to join with the
solid minority in deposing him
Encouraging his republican col
leagues and admonishing the demo-
Gratis, he declared he believed a re-
publican majority would be return
ed in coming elections.
Minority leader Clark made a
speech and insisted that if given an
opportunity, the democrats would
endeavor to realize the suggestion Of
Senator Aldrich that expenses of
government might be curtailel to the
extent of $500, 100000 annually.
In the senate today consideration
was begun of the administration
railroad bill section by section. Sew
eral amendments offered by Mr.. El-
kins for the administrati tion republi-
cans were adopterd.
Senator Nelson made a speech in |
which he declared that purpose of |
bill was to destroy the Sherman
antitrust law and that he could not
vote for it.
