Hundred Thousand
Head of Stock Die
in Cars Yearly
Witness Makes This Statement in
Hearing Before House Com
mittee on Commerce.

WASHINGTON, Feb. n.-Representatives
of humane societies and live stock associ-
atoms were before the house committee on
interstate and foreign commerce yesterday
testing against the manner in which the
railroads handle live stock enroute TO mar
ket.
One witness declared that 10000 head ofs
stock were taken from the cars dead every
year as a result of inhuman handling. The
loss in money was estimated at millions in
the killing OF stock and in the s~h1nkage CT
weight.
A bill was before the committee fixing
a minimum rate Of sixteen miles an hour
at which the railroads may transport llVs
stock shipments. Shippers told the COM
mittee today that frequently the rate was
less than two miles an hour on an average.
DR.. william o. Stillman, president Of the
American Humane association, denounced
present conditions as "a disgrace to civil
l~zation,"
f. w. Goodlng. president OF the National
Wool Growers association, said most OF
the railroads were crazy over the thing
Of loading their engines with all they can
haul, resulting in slow handling and great
loss to shippers"
He presented resolutions from his organ
~ization, and also the National Live Stock
association.

EVERYBODY WORKED FATHER
Maternity Hospital Babes PaImed OFF
ON Proud Dada in Los
AnaaIaa

Fhat she had provided homes for more
than 800 babies in Los Angeles, and that
until now none of the supposed .fathers',
hao oeen any the wiser, was the startling
testimony OF Mrs. c. r. Smith. ia Sunset
boulevard, who furnished Mrs. E.-w. VIII
son with -four children, which the latter
tried to palm off on her husband as quad
ruplets born to her.
Mrs. Smith said this was a favorite
means adopted by many persons. whose
husbands wanted children, to escape the
care and sickness incident to confinement.
MRS Smiths story was told in the investi-
CATION before Judge Wilbur regarding the
parentage of the four children which Mrs.
wilson had admitted were not hers.
AS a result OF the inquiry the conduct OF
such maternity hospitals as that operated
by Mrs. Smith will be placed before the
present grand jury for Investigation.
The evidence of w. w. Wilson, two phv-
sicians and a nurse brought out further
details Of the hoax planned by Mrs. VIII
son.
Her intense love of children prompted
her to do 1t, / am convinced" testified DR.,
A. g. Pratt, who was called to the house
at ths time of the supposed births. az ar
rived at the house thirty minutes after the
supposed delivery. 1 found a highly ex-
cited family, four babies and a much
amused nurse. There was every indication
about the room that the babies had been
born there.
MRS" Wilson told me the babies had ar
rived al the house just a few minutes be-
fore her husband came home and that he
was satisfied they were his own children.
Mrs. Wilson said none Of the children
In the house was her own, neither the boy
supposed to be one of the last triplets nor
the girls supposed to. be twins
Wilson, however, believes that the three
children now at his home are his.
1 was present at the birth OF the twins"
he told Judge Wilbur. II believe they are

Special Examiner Brown.

The case Of the McShane Lumber COM
pany Of Omaha against the Houston, East

Houston & Shreveport Railway company,
the Fort Worth & Denver City Railway
company and the Colorado Southern Rail-
way company went to hearing Friday be-
fore Special Examiner Brown Of the Inter-

tinued. The complaint alleges that ex-
cesslve rates were charged on a shipment
OF pine lumber ties from Oden, La. to
Denver, Colo, over the defendant railway
companies on the basis of a 34-eent rate
when a 2e-cent rate would have been fair
and reasonable. The compliments allege
that they paid t27s.12 for freight on the
shipment when they should have been
charged with but s212.6S and therefore ask
q refund Of $65. ~.
