RanSom-More Arrests
Are Expected Soon

CHICAGO, Aug. 11.-Angelo Marine,
s years old, who was returned LAST
evening after a ransom of $500 us
napers, was closely guarded by his
parents today.
81 will never let my darling out or
my sight again until he is old enough
to take care of himself" sobbed the
mother as she wept with JOY at the
child's return, after being held prison
er by kidnapers for almost f1ve days.
The boy sat on his mothers lap this
morning. greeting his playmates and
neighbors who called. and seemed UNI
able to realize the grief his absence
had caused his parents. He said he
was we'll treated by the kidnapers:
They bought new clothes and gave him
candy and cake.
There was rejoicing in the north
side Italian colony over the boys safe
return, and hundreds OF neighbors ana
friends called at the Marine home TO
congratulate the parents.
Nine men and three women are un-
der arrest for the kidnapping, and the
police expect to make additional ar
rests before night. Search is being
made for the woman who guarded and
cared for the boy in the West Division
street mouse. An effort will also be
made by the police to recover the $500
paid as ransom.
The father Of the boy received a
special delivery letter today. He
turned IL over to the police. 1t is be-
lieved to have threatened him with
death for having co-operated with the
police in search for the child.

Committee Refuses
Place on Calendar

At q meeting Monday morning at
o'clock the rules committee OF the house
declined to reserve place on the cal
endar of the house for the Tippins bill to
prohibit near-beer.l
In this declination. the committee re-
fused. a request from the house that the
Tippins bill be brought to a vote before
adjournment OF the legislature, on Thurs
day. The request was made through a
resolution that the house adopted on Sat
urday BY vote of 80 to r.
This resolution was introduced by Mr..
Alexander OF DeKalbL After reciting the
fact that the majority OF me house de-
sires the passage or the Tippins measure,
and stating that II was the second bill
introduced, the resolution urged that the
rules committee permit the bin TO be set
for final consideration. t.f
The committee. however. stood pat" in
It's determination not to allow this bill
TO come up. In doing this. the commit
tee was forced to disregard the request OF
the majority OF the house.
The decision OF this body in regard to
the calendar, was that the reapportion-
ment bin should be resumed and that,
Immediately after its disposal special APP
preparation bills should be considered.
A minority report, dissenting from the
refusal OF the rules committee to put
the Tippins bill on the calendar was pre-
scented b. Mr.. Alexander Of DeKalb.

TIPPINS BILL HAS LOST
LAST CHANCE IN HOUSE

Following the refusal OF the rules COM
mittee 70 bring the Tippins bill to vote
in the house. Mr.. Alexander, of DeKalb,
Monday morning introduced a privileged
resolution in which he stated that the
Tippins bin has been displaced from Sthe
position on the calendar and addsd that
any successful attempt TO -afect the
constitutional rights Of members was
revolutionary and dangerous" and
should be declared unconstitutional
null and void"
Mr. Mcintyre. OF Thomas. moved that,
instead Of considering the resolution. the
house reject It by laying 1t on the Ia
BILE. His motion was carried by vote
OF 50 to 70.
Previous to the introduction OF this
resolution, Mr.. Alexander, as a member
of the rules committee, presented a
minority report In which he protested
against the decision of the committee
not to place the Tippins bin on the calen-
dar of the house
The position of the committee ard the
inability Of prohibitionists in the house
to secure the adoption of Mr.. Alexander
resolution, seem to make II certain that
no opportunity will be offered at this
session for a vote on the Tippins bill.

.CONFEREES REJECT
. KERN AMENDMENT
TO FREE LIST BILL
Also Reject House Amendment
Adding Lemons to Free List.
I Early Vote Is Scheduled in
Both Houses

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-There will
be another vote in the senate on the
Kern amendment to the farmers free
list bill. This was determined this at
ternoon when the senate and house con-
ference committee finally disagreed con-
corning this amendment and the free
lemon amendment adopted by the house.
The vote may come Monday. but it is
more than likely to occur ON Tuesday
or Wednesday
The Kern amendment provides that
free trade. in meat products and bread
stuffs shall apply only to countries
with which the United. States enjoys
reciprocity. it's enactment into law
would mean that America could import
Meat and Bread" free of duty from
Canada only. 1t was adopted in the
senate only after the free list bill with
out amendment had been defeated by a
tie vote.
The house is willing enough to accept
the Kern amendment as a last resort.
but the eonferees preferred to submit
the, question to the senate again, be-
lieving that the amendment might pos
sibly be eliminated. in view OF the
closeness of the original vote -
The bill will be eventually put up
to the president in some shape and he
is certain to veto 1t, according to gem
eral belief.
LITTLE ARGUMENT.
There was little argument in confer
ence over the free list amendments.
Chairman Underwood, of the house con-
ference committee, declared the house
could not accept the Kern amendments,
which were injected into the bill after
the original free list bill had been lost
by a tie vote in the senate. Senator
Bailey said the senate would not APP
prove the free lemon amendment. though
he himself favored 1t. On the motion
of Mr.. Underwood the conference COM
mittee agreed to the senate amend
ments putting binders, cement and all
kinds of boots and shoes on the free
list: and instructed that a disagree
ment on the other amendments be re-
ported to the house and senate Monday.
SENATORIAL ELECTIONS.
There will be no final action on the
direct election of senator's at this SEES
sion of congress. The house and SEN
ate conference committee failed to agree
upon the Bristow amendment which ex-
tends federal authority over state cleo
tions. The house refused to yield on
that.

WoRKMEN's COMPENSATION AND
EMPLOYERS LIABILITY.
BY Professor Arthur J. Boynton, De.
partment of Sociology and Econ
omics, University Of Kansas.

hview Of the fact that a very large
per cent of our members are laboring
men, the following article will be of
interest to them:
In recent years, the problems of
labor, labor legislation and trade I'M
lonism. together with a growing in
terest in the broader fields of social
betterment, have more and more bee
occupying the attention of the public
mind. 1t is a matter of general
mowledge-for on all sides is heard
the statement that lin the field Of
social legislation the United States
Is behind the more progressive coun-
tries of Europe But fortunately, in
spite of this backwardness, interest
in the subject is widespread. This
in itself. is a favorable Indication of
what may be hoped for in the future.
AS a result of this public concern, eff
fective legislation may some day be
enacted, and. as result, something
socially desirable may be accomplish

legislation, held in 91O7, it was stat.
ed as. follows:
The ends to be aimed at in any
program of social legislation are:
l. ITO protect wage earners in the
continued enjoyment of standards Of
living to which they are already &C.
customed.
II. ITO assist them to attain to
higher standards of living.
THE principal contingencies which
threaten standards of living already
acquired are, l, industrial accidents
2, illness; 3. invalidity and old age;
a, premature death; 5, unemployment
These contingencies are not, in
practice, adequately provided against
by wage earners themselves. In con
sequence the losses they entail in
the absence of any social provision
against them, fall with crushing force
on the families which suffer from
them, and only too often reduce such
families from a position of indepen
dence and self respect to one of hui
initiating and MISUNDERSTANDING so
cial dependency. The following rem
edies from the evils resulting from
this situation are suggested:
1. Employers liability laws fai
to provide adequate indemnity to the
victim of industrial accidents because
in large proportion of cases, no leg
al blame attaches to the employer
and because litigation under them il

along the road where it is graded
very nicely about forty feet wide.
When mile west of the city they
saw a team Of mules that were
driven to a wagon approaching. Por-
ter, who was driving, turned to the
right, close to the ditch and the
mules turned a little to the right
from the center Of the road. When

and made it look like II had been in

soon as the damage was done the
mules stopped and 1t was noticed that
the meanest mule had a leg broke.
The other was severely inbred and
were killed The parties on
both sides kept their temper and the
