BOOTLEGGERS HAVE
new GRAFT SCHEME
Work Uncle Sam For Fees and
Mileage.

Columbus, o., June 10.-Federal
authorities are Of the opinion that an
organized gang of bootleggers are
working in Ohio on and old scheme
successfully practiced in certain
southern states. whereby members OF
the gang receive more money In the
shape of witness fees and mileage
than they do by the sale of liquor
without a government license.
The system that is employed is
simply this: During the interval be
tween each term of court a gang OF
bootleggers will cause the arrest OF
one or possibly two OF their number
They, of course, will be called as wit.
nesses in the case and will have to
make three trips to the city in which
the case is being heard the first
when the prisoner appears before the
commissioner, next when the grand
Jury is hearing the evidence and then
when the case is tried.
Witnesses secure 10 cents a mile
for transportation and Sl.50 day
witness fees. If a man is forced 10
travel any great distance the sum
which he receives from the govern.
ment soon mounts upward, and as
this trick can be worked two or three
times each year, the government is
put to a great expense.
The same man is never turned
Jp" the second time by the gang, for
DE second offense would probably
mean long jail sentence, and this is
what they wish to avoid. None OF
the members OF these gangs, how
ever, are ayerse to serving a few
months in some county Jail.

Kills -Four Negroes In -Four Shots;
-Four Others Killed.

New Orleans, June 1O-W. ]. Bout
lee and George Story are believed TO
have broken all records for raDid and
deadly revolver shooting when, at
La Branch, La, they shot and killed
eight negroes in 10 minutes. There
was one wounded, which puts Story's
score a bit ahead of Boutlee's. II
The negroes were members of q
section gang and Boutlee is foreman.
The blacks conceived a hatred for
the boss" and plotted 10 kill him.
They engaged in a fight among them
selves and when Boutlee rushed over
10 stop the row they turned upon
him and one struck him over the
head with a shovel Boutlee fell. but
sat up and, before he finished rising
TO his feet, had shot four times and
killed four negroes.
George Story, a conductor. heard
the first loud talking among the
negroes, looked at his watch and saw
he had just 10 minutes before train
time. He ran down the track and
arrived just as Boutiee finished
shooting. Story then killed four ne
groes and wounded one with six
shots, then returned and took his
train out on time.

Committee Have Hard Time Ex-

For United States steel Corpora
ton--Do Not Know How Prices
Are Malntained-Galey Denies That
Carnegie Held Up Morgan Interests.
Washington, June l0.-A lively row
between X. V. Lindabury, counsel for
the United States Steel corporation.
and members of the committee,
marked the hearing before the Stan
ley committee of the house. which is
inquiring into the affairs OF the steel
company. A question put to Percival
Roberts, Jr., a director of the com-
pany, by Representative Beall OF
Texas, aroused the ire of Mr.. Linda
bury. He insisted that the question
reflected on the witness and hat the
attitude OF the examiner was "un-
sesemly" Representative Beall lost
his temper and made a sharp reply
to Lindabury. The upshot of the af-
fair was an official warning to Lin
dabury not to do II again.
The committee spent the better
part of the day in an effort to show
that the steel corporation. in a round
about way. controlled prices in the
steel trade just as they had con-
trolled in former days through "gen-
tlemen's agreements" among the in
dependent operators The committee
got very little satisfaction on this
score from Mr.. Roberts and James
Gayley. former vice president OF the
steel corporation, the two witnesses
who appeared.
Denial that Andrew Carnegie, by
threats. compelled the formation OF
the United States Steel CORPORATION,
and an acknowledgment that the
steel companies before that organ
ization had counseled with the rail
roads as TO the price OF steel, marked
the testimony Of James Gayley The
Pennsylvania railroad officers were
the principal ones consulted.
Mis baSiSg Aolu 9uNh uhuci othnu-
.ings with tho. railroads, were neoes'
sary TO prevent a monopoly in the
steel business, and denied that Mr..
Carnegie, as charged by John w.
Gates, had held up" j. Pierpont
Morgan and by so doing had forced
steel manufacturers to combine.
Mr.. Gayley said he had no personal
knowledge that Andrew Carnegie had
threatened to build a tube mill at
Conneaut for the purpose of forcing
the Morgan interests to buy out the
plant, as charged by John w. Gates.

Busy to Prevent lts Passage In
senate-Enemies Also Active.
Washington, June TO- - President
Taft has started to work for the de-
feat Of the Root amendment to the
reciprocity bill in the senate The
president seems to have taken in
good faith the declaration of Chair
man Underwood of the ways and
means committee that the house
would not accept the bill again II the
Root amendment is adopted. Mr.. I'm
derwood spoke to the president for
the entire Democratic strength in the
house and President Taft is going TO
strain every nerve to keep the reci-
procity bill from undergoing the test
of Underwoods threatened opposi-
tion.
The Democratic chairman told the
president plainly that the house had
done all 1t would for reciprocity He
said that II the bill went into confer
ence with the Root amendment the
house would refuse to accept the bill
unless the senate receded from its
demand for the amendment. The en-.
emies of the bill in the senate are
too strong, or rather too many Of its
supporters are lukewarm, to have the
bill stand the strain of severe fight
over a conference report at the last
moment, and the president is alarmed
for its safety.
The information which has come to
the White House concerning the stu.
alton in the senate is favorable. It
is said there is a comfortable major
ity for the defeat of the Root amend
ment. However, there have been op-
timistic reports on senatorial situa-
tions on this bill before. and the
president will not abate his efforts
this time. .sl

field, the capital Of Dade county
At its meeting, the first Of May,
the county court opened the bids
and awarded the contract The
Jacobs bank bid five per cent, the
Dade county bank offered Ave and
fifty-fve hundredths and the Lock-
wood bank offered four and half.
The court, instead OF awarding
the custody Of the funds to the
highest bidder gave it to the ia
cobs bank. Thereupon the Dade
county bank that had a bid con-
siderably higher appealed for an
injunction, forbidding the county
court to carry this order into eff
feet. The judge issued an order
forbidding that the county moneys
be placed in the Jacobs bank, and
directing that the county court let
the money according to law.
