NO SPLITS IN
DEMOCRATIC RANKS
Champ Clark Says All This HulIabal.
loo is to Hide Republican
Difficulties.

PITTSBURG, March s.-A state
ment made here by Congressman
Champ Clark, of Missouri, speaker of
the next congress, arraigns republi-
cans who he says, are predicting
split in the democratic party
up to January 10. they predicted
that in the caucus which we held
that day we were dead sure to go all
to pieces. When subsequently we were
about to hold caucus on the Cana
dian reciprocity pact they predicted
that we would fight like the cats of
Kilkenny. All the democrats except
five voted for reciprocity and saved
the day, when the president and Nc,
Call combined could not muster
enough of the republicans for it.
Certain democratic senators voted
that Senator Lorimer should retain
his seat; more Of them voted that he
should be ousted, whereupon the re-
publican papers promptly headlined
another democratic split utterly re-
gardless of the fact that republicans
also divided on that odoriferous ques-
| ton.
"All this hullaballoo about demo
cratic split is to hide the wide and
irreconcilable splits among republi-
cans

WATEPFn MILK
SELLING, CHECKED
Several Regulations Are Pu. on the
Milkmen who Have Been
Too Energetic.

HOUSTON, Texas, March S.-Dairy-
men who have been selling watered
and creamless milk In Houston have
been brought up with round turn.
The local medical association under
the leadership of the city pathologist
have put into effect stringent regu-
lations which are now incorporated
into city ordinance that If violated
will forfeit the license of the offer A.
ing milkman. The new rules govern
all points of the dairies, taking into
account all the conditions which
make for unhealthy milk, such as con
ditions of the stables, the personal
cleanliness of the persons doing the
milking, the handling of the milk and
provide for certain test which must
be made to insure its being perfectly
pure. The watering and skimming or
separating of milk will have to cease
and the practice so common in MANY
cities of changing milk from large
cans TO bottles while the wagons are
out on their run has been ended as no
bottles can now be used until they
have been taken back to the dairy and
washed.

Dunno Gives up All Hope and Orders
the Work Stopped In Pc
tition to The
Court.
NO FRAUD FOUND
About Half Of Ballots Had Been Gone
Over Nnd Nothing Was
Found to Alter
Results.

CHICAGO, March S-Edward F.
Dunno last night announced that he
had given up all hope that a recount
Of the ballots cast in the democratic
primaries would bring him through
as the winner of the mayoralty nomi-
nation over Carter H. Harrison. He
said further that he would not run
as an independent.
His decision was reached after the
ballots of fifteen of the thirty-five
wards had been recounted. Upon
Dunne's petition Judge Owens at $3.50
o'clock ordered the recount stopped
The Intention had been to keep the
ten teams Of five men each at work
until midnight.
BY cutting short the recount Harri-
sons plurality will remain at 1,420,
the figure given him in the official can
vass. Up to the end of the fifteenth
ward Harrison's net loss amounted to
only 27 votes. Harrison sustained a
total loss Of approximately 265, but
gains and total loss for Dunno IF 215
reduced the figure to a point which
caused Dunno to give up hope. Most
of the losses were caused by the
throwing out Of defective ballots, anu
there proved to be little or no eyi-
dence of fraud.
After Judge owens court order call
ine. halt on the recount had been en-
tered Mr.. Dunno issued statement
in which he declared that as the
choice of the democrats at the pri-
maries Mr. Harrison is entitled to the
support of all members of the party.
Mr.. DUNES statement was as fol-
| lows:
After consultation with my friends
and Legal advisers who have been con-
Quoting the recount of the ballots be,
fore the board of election commits
sioners am satisfied that Mr.. H rri-
son received plurality of the votes
cast at the democratic primary on
| February % and that it would be
| useless to impose additional burden
/ upon Judge Owens, the election COM
missioners and their clerks and my
| friends who have watched the contest
/ so arduously and faithfully.
1 / have therefore advised my attor-
/ neys to dismiss my petition and to
4 discontinue the recount of ballots
/ | desire especially to extend to
Judge Owens on behalf of myself and
my many friends my appreciation OF
/ the cordial and distinguished consid-
! GRAFTON at his hands.
AS the choice OF the democratic
! party at the primary Mr.. Harrison is
i entitled to the votes of the democrats
of Chicago.
cannot conclude this statement
/ without expressing to my thousands OF
loyal, disinterested friends in Chicago
nv heartfelt thanks for their splendid
/ support in the late contest.
e. N. Zoline, attorney for Mr.. Dunno
said that no fraud had been unearth
ed by the recount.
I'VE did not allege any fraud anc
for that reason did not specifically re
fer in our petition to the court to the
fact that no fraud has been discovered
or shown or proven in connection witt
the count or primary election, sale
Mr. Zoline. 81 am therefore pleased
TO saw that no fraud has been showr
or disclosed by the count and tha
\ there is nothing to warrant any charge
of any fraud in that connection. We
