SUED TO w. T. CONNORS.

Colonel Clowry, President of the Wes-
tern Union Telegraph Company,
Testifies That the Average Profit per
Dispatch has Been 3Ta Cents.

New York, Jan. 20.-Colonel Robert
C. Clowry, president of the Western
Union Telegraph company, on the wit
ness stand, and the name of William
j. Connors of Buffalo, chairman of the
democratic state committee coupled
with an alleged $2,OOO,OOO stock trans
fer, frightened the otherwise routine
proceedings of the state legislature
committee which is trying to deter
mine the ACCESSIBILITY of placing tele-
graph and telephone lines under the
jurisdiction of the public service COM
mission.
In letter addressed to the chairman
of the commission, State Senator
George Davis, James E. O'Grady of
Rochester, n. Y, wants to know why
Mr.. Connors received from the promot-
ers of an Independent telephone com
pany in Rochester 100000 worth of
stock gratis, as was charged in testi-
mony during recent litigation against
the company.
O'Grady, who is counsel for certain
stockholders in a suit against direc-
tors of the United States Independent
Telephone company, in his letter
quotes testimony as brought out in the
suit at Rochester in which it was, ac-
cording to the writer, sworn by Albert
o. Fem, president of the Alliance
Bank of Rochester, that he had issued
certificate of stock of the face value
of S2,000,000 to William j. Connors of
Buffalo, N. Y, without any considera.
ton, at the request and under the di-
rection of Thomas w. Finucane, "be,
cause he (Mr. Connors) was an influ-
entail man" FinuCane is democratic
state committeeman.
The committee took the matter un,
der advisement.
The most interesting things in Col
onel Clowry's testimony was that his
company made an average profit of on
ly 3l5 cents per message during last
year, The average price paid, he testi
fed, was 80 cents; the average cost to
the company 2SR cents.
What is your opinion of the plac
ing Of public utilities under govern
mental and state control?" was asked
II have not had any experience in
that line but l would not object rea
sonable control or regulation. The
principle seems to me to be correct sc
far as our business is concerned" he
replied.

ALL An ERROR ABOUT PIE
Representative Miller, Who First
Kicked up Row, sage a Word.

Washington, Jan. 20--It was report
ed that Miller of Minnesota in trying
to pry out some delayed postoftice
appointments, found that they were
held up because he was an insurgent
Others had similar information, but
Miller was the first to proclaim it.
President Taft entertained Mr.. Mil
Ter at luncheon yesterday. Breaking
bread together, the president showed
surgents will get their postoffiCes the
same as the regulars.
Mr.. Miller gave the following state
ment as the result of his very pleas
ant visit to the white house.
II believe | may say that no repub-
lican member who gives his honest
and earnest support to the legislation
redeeming the promises of the repub-
lican national platform will have oc-
Casion to complain of the treatment
that is accorded him on the question
of patronage.
"By that | understand that when it
comes to patronage the republicanism
attitude toward the speaker or the
house rules. The subject of patron
age was not under discussion while
was at the white house today, but
believe | secured a distinct idea as
to the presidents position toward con.
gress. He wants legislation. He
wants the country to have the laws
the people have a right to expect after
they elected a republican president
and republican congress last year
He wants the pledges of the Chicago
platform made good. Naturally, he
seeks and expects the cooperation of
all republican men-bC"s whethCr ~.
surgents or regulars, when other mat
tiers are at issue in the house of the
party"
President Taft made it clear to
Representative Miller, as he has to
the other callers. just what legislation
he is especially interested in. While
Mr. Miller does not assume to speak
for the president or to quote him,
it is his understanding that the admin.
istratiOn is primarily concerned in see
ing four measures passed-the bill es-
tablishing a postal savings bank, the
bill limiting the use of injunctions in
labor disputes, the bill amending the
interstate commerce law and the bill
giving statehood to Arizona and New
Mexico. The bills embodying the ad-
ministratons policy relative to con.
servation and the federal incorporation
bill are not classed as legislation the
republican party is specially pledged
to enact and support or non-support
of them will not be made test of
party regularity.

GERMANY STANDING PAT
Federated German States Back Up
Mother Country Against U. S.

Berlin, Jan. 20.-The imperial minis
terry from time to time has Communi-
Gated to the government of the fedora.
tariff negotiations with the United
States. All of the governments have
indicated their approval of the imper-
ial position that no concession can be
made concerning the importation of
American meats and are in full ac-
cord with the terms and spirit of
Germany's recent and definite reply to
the American request.
In view of the fact that American
exports of meat are declining because
Of the high prices prevailing in the
United States 1t is regarded here as
unreasonable that Washington should
insist upon concessions which must be
extended to Germany's neighbors.
Washington, Jan. 20.-"No tariff con-
cessions are demanded from Germany
that she does not already give to some
other nations"
This statement was made by high
authority who added:
Recent special dispatches from Ber-
lin carry the impression that the Unit
ed States is making such demands of
Germany as to force the nation into a
tariff war.
There is no foundation for such
charge or assertion. The tariff law
provides that countries that unduly
discriminate against the United States
in any treatment of her products,
whether agricultural or manufactured,
must after April l, pay the maximum
tariff rate which that law provides.

GOVERNORS STILL DISCUSS.
Irrigation, Extradition, Mining and Di.
vorce Topics Of Days Session.

Washington, Jan. 20.-Irrigation, ex.
tradition, mining and divorce were the
questions on which four governors
spoke at this mornings session of the
governors conference. Governor Bra.
dy of Idaho talked of irrigation. Gov.
ernor Ansel of South Carolina followed
with an address on extradition. Min
ing was the topic of Governor Sloan
of Arizona. The further and last ad-
dress of the morning was by Governor
Carroll of Iowa on the divorce ques-
ton. The formal addresses were fol.
lowed by discussion of each of the
questions.
The governors were guests last
night at dinner at the white house.

THE PHILADELPHIA STRIKE.
Street Car Company Says Cancellation
Already Carried Too Far.

ALREADY CaTTleu 90 raT.
Philadelphia, Jan. 20.-"If this city
has another strike of streetcar en-
has forced 1t on its employees" said
G. O. Pratt, national organizer of the
Amalgamated Association of Street
and Electric railway employees today
in an interview with representative
Of the Associated Press. Pratt has
been bending every effort to. settle the
threatened strike by arbitration. At
his suggestion the local executive COM
mittee, which had been empowered by
the men to call a strike, sent a letter
to the company last night asking that
the grievances of the men be adjusted
by an arbitration committee. In reply
the company sent statement to the
local newspapers in which it says:
I'VE have already carried concilia-
ton so far that our discipline has suf.
fered to an extent no longer endurable.
In the last week we have received
more than 400 complaints from pas
sengers relating to disregard of rules
by men on the cars. If discipline were
applied in these cases alone there
would be 400 more grievances and If
the committees present request was
granted 400 more cases to arbitrate."
The company, however, promises to
give the committees request careful
consideration.

Great Deal of Snow on Ground.

Walnut, Neb., Jan. 2O.-Special to
The News: Old settlers in Knox coun-
ty are agreed that at no time since
the winter of 1SS0-Sl have we had
so much snow. There seems to be
about two feet on the level. There
is very little frost and as the snow
came while there was no deep frost
it is melting continually and the
ground is getting the full benefit.
There is still much corn in the
field and as stock has not had the
run of fields more than half of the
winters supply of feed is now con.
sumed.
There is good sleighing almost all
of the time but the wind Saturday
and Sunday made 1t necessary to do
great deal of work on the roads.

Defends kentueky's Name.

Washington, Jan. 20.-Replying from
the floor of the senate to a recently
published newspaper article on night
riding in Kentucky, its causes and re-
suits, Senator Bradley of that state
today uttered vigorous protest against
what he declared was the injustice and
the falsity of the story.
He took exception to the assertion in
the article that conditions in Kentucky
today are as lamentable as he himself
acknowledged in his speech they were
in 1907 and during a portion of 1908.
During that period, he said. he had
denounced the disgraceful conditions,
land there is no Kentuckian who loves
his state" he added, who has con.
doned them"

WELLESLEY GIRLS LEND AID
They Pledge $1,000 and Order 1000
Shirtwaists from Strikers.

Wellesley, Mass, Jan. 20.-The shirt
waist strikers of New York received
a substantial boost at Wellesley col
lege despite the protest of the faculty,
when three Omaha girls, Nell Carpen.
ter, Corinne Searle and Margaret Ken
nedy, and 100 other Wellesley girl
students pledged themselves to raise
$1,000 for the strikers cause and to
place an order for 1000 shirtwaists.
The strikers sent a girl to talk to
the college girls. She told their pa.
thetic story. SO deeply stirred were
the college maids with the common
cause of womanhood" as the strikers
term their fight, that the fund was sub
scribed in fifteen minutes while the
pretty Collegians cheercd the New
York working girls. The delegation
was sent back to New York with an
order for | 900 shrtwaists to be made
at the cooperative factory of the
strikers.
Regardless of the attitude of the
faculty the girls are resolved to make
good their pledge. Miss Vivi Scudder,
, one of the professors, urged the stu
dents to stay their action but the APP
peal of the working women touched the
girls deeply and nothing could stem
+ the tide of substantial sympathy.

SAM SMALL HEARD FROM.
Evangelist Who MysteriousIy Left Wa
terloo, la, Is in London.

Marshalltown, Ia, Jan. 20. - Rev.
Sam Small, the well known lecturer.
evangelist, writer and temperance or
ator, who disappeared from Waterloo
last June while editing the Golden
West Magazine, has just been heard
from. Rev. Mr.. Small is now in Lon
don doing magazine work. The rather
mysterious and unexpected departure
of Mr.. Small and family from Water
loo following his unsuccessful attempt
to launch and keep alive the Golden
West magazine led many to believe
that some i'll fate had overtaken him.
This belief was strengthened as
months passed and nothing was heard
from him.

SCORE ANTI-MEAT CRUSADE.
Cleveland Labor Men Say That is Not
Solution to Problem.

Cleveland, Jan. 20. - The United
Trades and Labor council here de-
nounced the stand of 10000 working
men against the eating of meat and
called on union laboring men to refuse
to sign the anti-meat pledge.
The true remedy, according to reso.
lutions adopted by the council, is a
demand for higher wages by working.
men, in order they may buy the meat,
and the establishment of a municipal
slaughter house for the benefit OF small
butchers.
