FIND SINGLE BODY,
Firemen Make Slow HeadWay
in Search of Ruins.
Body of Woman Believed Miss
BenneviO Discovered.

Omaha, March 1.-Search of the ruins
of the Dewey hotel. whose destruction
by fire yesterday cost the lives of many
people, had resulted today in the re-
covery of only one Dody-that of a
woman-perhaps Miss Alice Bennevio,
sister of the landlords wife. The fea-
lures were unrecognizable and the body
frightfully disfigured, but identification
may be assured through ruby earring,
luxurious dark hair and a letter found
near the body addressed to Miss Flora
E. Wilcox. The letter was dated Har-
Ian, Iowa; the return notice named
Herbert Mcconnell, p Main street,
Harlan. and the letter was signed
Lovingly, Mama
Surrounded by thousands of curious
persons whom extra police kept from
venturing too near the ruins, f1remen
continued the search for bodies, but
though score or more are believed to
be hidden in the debris only four are
thus far accounted for.

T0DAY'S MARKET REPORT.

Chicago, March .-WHEIT-A Although
wheat showed strength at the outset to-
day on account of firm cables the effect
was soon lost; the Oklahoma crop report
was bearish and there was additional rain
or snow in the Ohio Valley and in the
southwest opening prices were unchanged
to 1sMAc up. May started at 927sc to 93c,
a gain of a share to 1sQAc, but reacted
to 92$4c.
An additional decline followe ID the close

9214c.
CORN-Absence of support allowed
corn to sag. May opened the same as
last night to a sixteenth lower at 53A q

Further weakness developed but the mar
ket closed steady with May A@3sc net

WEBB BILL TO PASS.
Senate OverrideS Presidents Veto
House Votes Today.

Washington. March 1.-The Webb
LIQUOR bill, prohibiting the shipment
of liquor into dry states, was repaSsed
in the senate over President Taft S
veto, within two hours from the time
the presidents message of disapproVal
had been laid before that body. A
short debate in which the advocates of
the bill voted down a motion to post
pone action and in which they reaf-
firmed their belief that the measure is
constitutional ended with the repassa ge
of the bill by the large majority of So
to FL.
The Webb bill passed both houses
of congress and went to the presid ent
two days ago. BaSing his decision
upon the attorney generals findings,
the president expressed the belief that
the measure was clearly unconstitu-
tional because it gave the states right
TO interfere with interstate commerce.
The senate took up the bill at once.
Attorney General Wickersham' s
opinion was not read and Senator Kern
asked that a final vote on the over
riding of the veto be delayed until to-
morrow. so senators might have the
opportunity to examine the attorney
generals arguments. A motion made
by Mr.. Kern to postpone the vote was
defeated, II to 8.
Senator McCumber declared that

New York Stock Market.

Wall St, New York, March 1-STOCKS
Trading was dull al the opening today
and changes were small. There was a ten
dency toward heaviness in Reading and
Union Pacific although the losses were
confined to fractions. Utah Copper and
strongest.
The market closed firm. Consideration
of the excellent January report made by
a number of large railroads today and
satisfa Glory trade reviews for the week,
overcame the temporary heaviness caused
by reports of a government suit against
the Corn Products company.
Business was light owing to the i'm
minence of change in the national admin
istration and the possibility of decision
by the supreme court on Monday in the
Minnesota rate case. Early losses were
confined to moderate limits and before
the session ended the average price level
rose above yesterdays claSe.
Exceptional strength was displayed by
the Copper group
Bonds were steady.

had misconstrued the grounds upon
which congress had passed the prohi-
bition law.
He said it had not attempted to give
the states the right to interfere with
commerce, but simply had declared
liquor an OUTLAW" and had then pre-
scribed conditions and which it might
enter interstate commerce. Senator
Kern also briefly urged re-passage of
the bill, while Senators Paynter and
Percy advocated support of President
Taft'S veto.

Efforts will be made today to over
ride the veto in the house. Representa-
tive Clayton (Ala.), will move to take
up the veto for the purpose of passing
the bill over the presidents head as
soon as the house convenes.
Representative Webb, author of the
bill, declared he had absolute conf
dence that the house would re-pass the
bill by more than a two-thirds ma
jority.

HEARING ON new PLAN.
President Taft Will Take Up Custom
Reorganization.

Washington, March President
Taft will hold a hearing in the east
room of the White House today on the
treasury department custom reorgani-
zation plan authorized by congress.
Attorney General Wickersham, Secre-
tary MacVeagh and Assistant Secre-
tary Curtis appeared in its defense.
Under the act of authorization the
plan would save the government about
100000 a year, and decrease the
number of customs districts from 165
to less than so.
1t has been attacked from many
angles, but it was believed that with
two members of the cabinet in its
favor President Taft would be inclined
to approve it.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1913-03-01

the cost to the Santa Fe alone would
be in the neighborhood of 25,OOO,000.
This alarm is not shared by the adj
mlnlstratlon members of the legisla-
ture or by Attorney General John S.
Dawson. They are inclined to believe
that the railroads will not suffer any
great damage under the present bill.
But the railroad men declare that
they are scared and want the bill re-
paired. The measure is now in the
hands of a conference committee and
it is probable that it will receive con-
siderable attention before it is enacted
into law

The Richfeld Dramatic Club viii
soon be seen in Arthur Lewis Tubbs
play, Home Ties.
1t win be remembered that this play
was rehearsed last season, bus owing
to numerous delays the show was not
pat on at that time.
''Home Ties is by far the most ser
ious drama yet attempted in Richfeld,
and great care has been taken by the
management in selecting a strong cast
for the several difficult roles. Home
Ties" is story Of intense human in
terest, plentifully supplied with dram
attic climaxes and riral comedy which
keeps the audience alternately in tears
and laughter throughout the four acts.
The theme is an old, old story, told in

RECEIVER FOR KING HILL
B. p. shawhan wiz Try to Re
store Prosperity.

B. P. Shawhan of Boise, manager of
the Carey Act department the state
land board, has been agreed upon as re-
ceiver for the King Hill irrigation pro-
ject. The project. with magnificent
water supply, fertile soil and the fin
est climate in the state, has had no end
Of bad luck, and everybody connected
with it in any whatsoever seems to
have lost money. The best thing that
ever happened there, outside of their
rare natural advantages, is the appoint
ment of Mr.. Shawhan as manager for
their affairs. He has the technical and
financial ability, the industry, the cour-
age and the integrity to bring about a
return of the prosperity that once was
so nearly theirs. 1t would be worth a
million dollars to Idaho to redeem this
now dismal failure. and restore the too
badly shattered confidence in idaho IT.

dairy cows are too valuable to put out
to rustic a living on sage brush. At a
meeting held here this week, ten local
men agreed to back this association, so
completing the details of the organiza-
ton would seem to be all that is left to
do to get it started. Similar offers are
being made to all the Idaho Irrigation
Company tracts.
Several hundred COWS were recently
brought in to the North Side tract un-
der the same general plan, at an aver
age cost of $72 each for good grades
and about Sl00 each for registered Jer-
seys, Guernseys or Holsteins. They
came from Wisconsin and Michigan. 1t
would cost at least as much to get them
here. The dairyman from the state
agricultural college went in person to
select the COWS, and he would doubtless
gladly do as much for this project.
