STOCK EXCHANGE
BEGINS REFOR MS

New York, March 9O,-Recent occur
FENCES on the New York stock exchange,
notably the collapse of the Hooking pool,
caused the governors of the exchange to
adopt a number of new rules today to
be enforced beginning April 4. The first
sets forth that the taking or carrying of
speculative account, or the making of
a speculative transaction in which a clerk
of the exchange, or member of the ex-
change, or of bank, trust company,
banker, insurance company, or moneyed
corporation enters into, is directly or in
directly in violation of the rules, unless
the written consent OF the employer Is
obtained and any infraction shall be
deemed detrimental to the interest and
welfare of the exchange.
Another resolution prescribes that every
member of the exchange is and be re-
quired to use due diligence to learn the
essential facts relating to every account
accepted by himself or by his clerks or
representatives., and also relating to the
possible use of a name for the account
of other than the parties at issue.
A third resolution requires that there
shall be public bids and offers of lots in
100 share blocks and that buyers of stocks
are compelled to buy any or all of small
lots offered at the time of bid for a
larger lot up to the price offered for the
large lot.
The exchange governors will endeavor
to control the smaller lots offered at
lower prices. The exchange limits an
operator in his activities and other safe
guards and reforms are inaugurated in
other resolutions.
The general belief is that the stock ex-
change is reforming itself

FIRE NOT ALWAYS
DEATH TO TICKS

Washington, March 30.-The burning
over of national forest lands is not an
effective means of dealing with the cat
tie tick and the dreaded fever which it
spreads, according to the opinion of the
department of agriculture as expressed in
a recent letter of Secretary Wilson to
Representative Floyd of Florida. The ar
ticle quotes a report from Dr. W. H.
Curtis, veterinary inspector of the bu-
reau of animal industry when recently
making tour of Arkansas he reported
his views, which were adopted by the de-
rartment. DR.. Curtis said:
ut is true at certain times of the year
burning the grass in an enclosed field
may remove the ticks wherever the fire
travels, but even then many places re-
main unburned and the owner who de-
ponds on the fire for eradication conse-
quently fails
In order to secure perfect results in
Graduating the ticket he said the cattle
should be treated according to some one
of the methods specified in the FARMERS
Bulletin issued by the department, which
is entitled, Methods of DISCRIMINATING
the Texas Fever Tick"
II have steadfastly advised DR.. Cur
tbs said. that pastures, meadows and
growing crops be provided upon which
the cattle could be held and fed the year
round, and thus need for using the range
be obyiated."

PUBLICITY BILL rs
HELD UP BY GAINES

Washington, March 30-Democratic
members of the House threaten to de-
nounce the failure of Representative
Gaines of West Virginia to report the
bill providing for publicity of campaign
contributions and expenses which was
favorably acted upon by the committee on
election of President vice president and
members of Congress about three weeks
ago.
Representative Sulzer of New York de-
clared that unless this bill is reported
within the next day or two he would
denounce the action of those responsible
for the delay on the floor of the House.
1t was stated that Mr.. Gaines had
promised to file the report before today
but today Mr. Gaines left on a trip 10
Michigan without having done so. AT his
office it was stated he intended to file the
report shortly after his return. Mr..
Gaines is understood to be opposed to the
bill although he refrained from voting
on it in committee.

BIG LINE OF AIRSHIPS
AROUND THE WORLD

Washington. March 30.-A line of air.
ships of the Zeppelin type, to ply between
New York and London via Pekin, is
proposed by A. Broadbeck. president Of
the Aero Club of Utah, who says he is
already negotiating with Count Zeppelin.
While the line would be proposed for the
rapid transit of passenger, Broadbeck has
written to Postmaster General Hitchcock
asking if the postoffice department has
the authority to use the airshps for the
transportation of the mail. He has been
advised it could not be done unless Con-
gress should specify airships as one of
the means of transportation.
In his proposal Broadbeck claims the
practicability of the Zeppelin ship has
been proven. 1t would average 40 miles
an hour, he stated. and principal stations
on the proposed route would be New
York. Chicago, Omaha, Denver, Salt Lake
City, San Francisco. Seattle, Fort Will
liams, Behring, Salihom, Toxic, Pellin,

KING MENEL|K OF

Descendant of Solomon at Last
Yields to Disease
BOY ASCENDS THRONE
MeneIik Threw on the Italian Protec-
torate and@Snce Then His King
dom Has Been nt Peace
BOY AsCENDs THRONE

Adds Abeba, Abyssinia, March SO.-Meh-
elk IL, King of Abyssinia, is dead at the
age of 66 years, and in the twenty-frst
year of his reign Prince Lii Jeassu'
grandson of the late monarch, is heir to
the throne.
The King was stricken with apoplexy
last fall and never recovered his health
For many weeks his death has been ex-
pected. When he was no longer able TO
carry on the affairs of state Ras Tesame,
the regent, with the approval of the prin-
cipal chiefs. took over the reins of gov
eminent. At the same time Empress
Taitou was deprived of all power of inter
ference in the government. Appointments
made among her favorites were annulled.
Prince Lii Jeassu was proclaimed heir
to the throne on May Is last. He is IA
years old and little less than year ago
was married to the 7-year-old grand
daughter of the late Emperor John.
The child bride is a niece of Empress
Taitou.
The ancient empire of Abyssinia or
Ethiopia includes the kingdoms OF Tlgro
Ampara. Shoa with other territories and
dependencies The area is more than
100000 square miles, the population be-
tween 100000 and II 100000.
Menelik was elected King by the Abys-
sinia chieftains. His opponent was Ras
Mangasha. The King claimed to be a
direct descendant of Solomon by the
Queen of Sheba, and styled himself Con
uuering Lion of the Tribe of Juda, Elect
of the Savior, King of Kings of Ethio-
pa.'
He was the son of the King of Shoa, but
was captured in his youth by the gov
ernor of Kondar, who had usurped the
throne under the title of Theodore III.
Menelik made war on Theodore and the
latter's successor. the Emperor johann
mes. The King finally married his daugh-
ter to Ras Area, the Emperor's son, and
was tacitly acknowledged heir to the
| throne. Ras Area died and Johannes was
killed in battle. MenelilS thus became
Negus of Abyssinia. He refused to ac-
knowledge the domination of Italy over
his country and compelled the Italian
army to capitulate at Adowa in 1895. when
treaty was signed recognizing the alb
solute independence of Abyssnia. Since
then peace has crowned Menelik's policy
toward foreign powers. Under his reign
the country has prospered with the intro
duction of improved methods of govern
ment and commerce.
