NEW BANK
IN VILLAGE:
PROMISED
West Hammond, Hammond
and Chicago Capital to
Establish Financial In
stitution Across the State
Line in Near Future.

West Hammond, Chicago and Ham,
mond capital is about to join hands for
the establishing of a bank in west
hammond, ILL.,, and plans are on the
verge of contamination which will soon
make this financial project fact.
Negotiations were on today which
should decide as to the amount of can't
tai stock and as to whether the In
stitution is to be state or national
bank
Plans for the project are not new,
they having bobbed up ever since last
October, but withal 1t does appear
strange now that West Hammond has
not had bank before now. While the
plans have been pending since last fall
there Is nothing In the outlook now
that would tend to thwart them.
Attorney James K. Stinson OF Ham
mond appears as the organizer and will
himself be one OF the principal stock
holders. He held a conference with
West Hammond and Chicago men today
and may have more to say on the fu-
ture plans tomorrow.
Plans VIII Develope Soon.
Because the project is still in its en-
bryonic state Mr. Stinson was rather
reluctant to dwell on the future plans
OF the bank people.
When seen this noon, Mr. Stinson
said.
We are still undecided as to whether
1t shall be a national bank or a state
institution. and also whether it will be
capitalized for $4,000 or $4,000. Those
are matters that we hope to decide to-
day or tomorrow. We are satisfied that
bank in West Hammond will be a
good thing both for the stockholders
and the West Hammond people. River
dale has two banks, Dalton has two
and West Hammond, with twice the
population, has none.
That there is plenty of willing capt.
tai to get in on the ground floor can be
taken from an offer that was made to
Mr. Stinson by one Individual who
wanted to take $4,000 worth of stock
This proposition could OF course not be
taken UP as 1t will be the aim of the

Intake Plan Not Feasible.
The plan submitted by Councilman
Henry Whitaker at the last session
for the protection OF the water intake,
which had been referred to the water
committee was tabled, it having been
given to Jacob Kasper. superintendent
OF the pumping station. who studied
it and found it to be not feasible. The
plan provided for a series Of gates
to be made of piles and stones placed
nsuch a manner as to shut out slush
ice. Mr. Kasper argued that eventual
1y the crevices between the piles and
stones would fill up and that there
would be no prevention from forming
Ice between the intake and the gates.
He suggested that long as improve
ments be made that they be made
thoroughly. Mr. Kasper went on to
explain why. Hammond cannot get alb
soluteyl pure water from its present
intake. He explained that owing to the
government breakwater, the dirty wat
er from the Calumet river gets into
Hammond territory and air-tight bot
ties that have been cast into the wat
err at this point have circulated as Ions
as five days.
Amend Ordinance.
Section seven of the building ordin
ance was amended that a specia
permit will cost 81 a month per 90
square feet no permit to be given for
longer period than six months, afte
which it must be renewed. The or

CANNON, DEFIANT,
. IS REBUkED AGAIN
insurgents Join with Democrats
in Refusing to Pay for
Speakers Auto
Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, April 11.--Almost
the entire dnsurgent" strength Of the
house was Joined with the Democrats
today in what was generally acknowl-
edged to be an additional rebuke to
Speaker Cannon.
A conference report on the legislative,
executive and judicial appropriation
bill contained an agreement to appro-
pirate for the expenses of automobiles
previously provided for Speaker Can
non and Vice President Sherman.
The house reiterated it's disproval of
these expenditures, and by a vote of
132 to Ill refused to agree to the re-
port, sending it back to conference 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 invective. He again
defied the insurgents" and intimated
they lacked courage to join with the
solid minority to depose him.
Encouraging his Republican col
leagues and admonishing the Demo-
Gratis, he declared he believed Repub-
lican majority would be returned In
the coming elections.
Minority Leader Champ Clark made
a speech in which he insisted that II
given an opportunity the Democrats
would endeavor to realize the sugges-
ton OF Senator Aldrich that the ex-
penses of the government might be
curtailed $300,O00.O00 annually.

CAPTURE PR0WLER
Prisoner Anxious to Be Valet to
T.R.; PinChot Meets
Former Chief

PORTO MAURIzIO, Italy. April IL.
Clifford Pinchot, the former chief for
ester of the United States, passed the
entire day with Mr.. Roosevelt, but
what passed between them is secret.
Mr.. Pinchot arrived at the Carew
| villa before o'clock today. He re-
manned for lunch and accompanied Mr.
and Mrs. Roosevelt and Miss Carew on
| a five-hour excursion into the noun
tains. They had dinner together also,
and the former forester did not return
to his hotel until shortly before mid
night
Mr. Pinchot, when seen az the villa
lust before dinner, declined to say
what he had communicated to the
former president. and Mr.. Rooseyelt's
prediction few days ago that neither
would have anything to give out con-
cerning the meeting proved to be en-
tirely correct.
Shortly before dusk secret service
police who were detailed to guard MI.
Roosevelt arrested a suspicious indi-
vidual prowling about the villa. AT
the police station, where he was locked
up pending investigation, he gave the
name of Magagno, and said he was
native of Bologne. He explained that
he was a barber and had been working
in Nice, where he learned a little Eng
lish.
A letter in his possession was ad-
dressed to Mr.. Roosevelt, asking for a
position as valet.
The police believe the man Is de-
mented and will hold him until the
story of his identity and record can
be established.
When pressed about the subject of
the long conversation between Mr..
Roosevelt and Mr.. Pinchot. Mr.. Roose-
velt's secretary announced without q
smile that it consisted largely of rem
| tniscences and hunting stories, gravely
| confiding the information that Mr.
Pinchot was almost as good shot as
| his former chief.
When Mr.. Roosevelt got back to the
villa this evening he found two Fran
ciscan friars, who had COME to present
their respects.
Former Mayor Phelan of San Fran
cisco telegraphed from Monte Carlo
this afternoon that he would call on
| Mr.. Roosevelt tomorrow.

WOMEN STARTLED
BY VERBAL BOMB
Mrs. Hume Charges Mrs. 0. Bar
mum with FaIsehood at Fed
GRAFTON Convention
Especial to The Herald.)

SANTA BARBARA, April 11.-Club
women of the state federation gasped
in Mortified amazement this morning
when Mrs. James B. Hume, state pres
ident openly charged Mrs. o. Shepard
Barnum of Los Angeles with the ma
licious circulation of a false report.
The misunderstanding arose over a
delayed letter of greeting from the ma
tional president, which was known to
contain flattering commendation Of
Mrs. Josiah Evans Cowles. Friends of
the southern woman believed that for
personal reasons Mrs. Hume was with
holding this letter.
When the rumor was repeated to the
outgoing president she determined upon
radical measures and despite the ad-
vice of conservative friends hurled the
thunderbolt of open accusation into the
convention.
There were suggestions OF potential
fireworks In the air at breakfast this
morning. Every delegate was in her
place promptly when the convention
convened. Routine business and some
reports were read, then the president
asked Mrs Orr to take the chair. Mrs.
Hume read the report of Miss Blanche
Morse, corresponding secretary, which
was approved. and then asked the
privilege of the floor and read this
letter:

Dear Madam President: 1t is with
real regret I must once more decline
your cordial invitation to the Califor-
mia meeting. Please express to your
members my sorrowful appreciation of

of program and needed discussions
which could not be put one side. 1 am
under such obligations to your state
for the assistance you have given
through the first vice president that I
wish to express it now to your assem-
bled delegates and friends.
Mrs. Cowles has been not only a

prompt and loyal to the policies of the

ENTOMBED MINERS
EXIST FOR HOURS
"AII Alive" Men Write Day After
Cherry Disaster-31 More
Bodies Found
rAssociated Pressl

CHERRY, Ill, April 11.-"All alive, 2
p. m, Nov. a."
This message from the st. Paul coal
mine was brought to light today with
the recovery of thirty-one more bodies,
entombed since the disaster of Novem-
ber 13.
The bodies were taken from the lower
level, 300 feet below ground The men
had retreated to space twenty feet
square and had constructed rude fan
of boards to keep the air circulating.
On the fan, in big letters, were chalked
the words quoted above, indicating the
men had lived at least until the day af-
ter the fire.
Evidently the men had taken turns
at the crank of the fan, for one of the
bodies had fallen over the handle as II
he died while struggling to maintain an
air current.
That the miners were in the habit of
keeping their savings on their persons
was shown by the amound OF money
found on the bodies. One miner had in
his belt S1400. In the belt of another
miner was found $3.50, and another had
$172.
These men were foreigners, and evil
IDENTIFY preferred to carry their money
in their clothing to depositing 1t In a
bank.
A report was circulated that evidence
had been brought to light indicating
that the men had lived for six weeks
after they had been sealed up In the
mine, and that many existed on corn
taken from the mules stables.
Sheriff Skoglund of Bureau county
made a thorough investigation of the
report, examining all the evidence Sc
cured from the mems clothing, and said
1t was untrue. He believed the men
had died of black damp, probably a
few hours after they had written the
memorandum on the fan.
