.CORSETS CAN SAVE
DELINQUENT WOMEN
NO Woman Can Maintain Self ReSpect
UnleS She Wears Corset
Saws Mrs. Jones.

Chicago, March 26.-Corsets can save
delinquent women.
The Illinois Women's Reformatory
committee has arrived at the conclus-
ion that the states penal institutions
fail in the reform of women inmates
because corsets and fine clothes are
not provided.
The committee, which is backing the
bill for the establishment of a reforma-
tory for women, proposes to remedy
the present condition by providing co.,
sets and fneries for all women delin-
quents and criminals.
"Self-respect is the first element to-
ward the retaining of a woman g
soul, asserted Mrs. Minona S. Jones,
chairman. mo woman can maintain
her self-respect unless she wears a
corset. Dress our women prisoners
well and they will be reformed Corsets
would make good women out of many
women who are now delinquent"
! BY way of making their corset re-
form movement more forceful the com
mittee produced statistics showing that
reclaimed delinquents among women
in this state only reached 8 per cent
while in the state of Massachusetts
where women criminals are provided
with separate reformatory, the per-
centage is as high as IS.
And there they are given corsets,
too" Mrs. Jones declared in closing
her argument.

PRESIDENT CONFERS
With UNDERWOOD
Discussion Said to Have Been
Satisfactory

Washington, D. c., March %. e
President Wilson is undecided wheth-
er the tariff should be revised by a
single bill or schedule by schedule. H.
told callers today that he had had a
satisfactory talk last night with Repre-
sentative Underwood, the democratic
leader, but had left the question open.
While Mr. Underwood favors the
single bill idea, he said that the dem
ocratic caucus should decide the issue.
and in that view the president has
concurred. While the income tax
feature was discussed the president
declared no conclusions had been
reached in regard to whether the tay
should be graduated or be set at a
fat rate.

TWO HEROIC GIRLS
GAVE FLOOD news
One Telephone and One TEL
Ggraph Operator

Cincinnati, March 26.-It remained
TO two girls to be the real factors in
giving to the swoIld the news of the
first day Of the flood Both are oper-
ators, but in different lines. One 4
telephone operator in the exchange at
Dayton, flashed the last tidings that
came out of the stricken city by tele-
phone today, as we'll as having deliv-
cred the news to Gov. Cox which en-
abled the executive to grasp the stu
alton and start the rescue work. The
other is the telegraph operator ut
Phoneton, eight miles north of Day
j ton, who served as relay operator for
the girl in Dayton. Both stood to their
posts as long as the wires held and
the young woman at Phoneton, Miss
Rena White Aiken, worked all during
the day and night
Sixty are dead and probably more
in Dayton, O., according to Frank
Brandon, vice president of the Dayton,
Lebanon and Cincinnati railroad, to-
night. Mr.. Brandon succeeded in es-
tablishing a telegraph wire late ID
day from Dayton to Lebanon. He says
that the situation is appalling and be-
yond all control.
According to my adyices the sit,I-
alton beggars description" said Mr.
Brandon. What the people need most
is boats The water is high in every
street and assistance late this after
noon was simply out of the question
My superintendent at Dayton told me
that at least sixty persisted and proba-
bly, a great many more, at the same
time assuring me that unless some
thing that closely approached a mira
Gle happened the death list would run
considerably higher.
1--WE are now rigging up several spe-
cial trains and will make every effort
possible to ct into Dayton tonight"
1t is reported that the railroad en-
bankment at Cleves, seven miles below
Cincinnati, broke tonight, and that
part of the town is under fifteen feet
CT water. The operator at Cleves said
he could distinctly hear cries for help,
but he could not learn if there was any
loss of life or the extent of the prop
erty damage.

MRS. WIBORG'S BAGGAGE
Declaration Too Small, 1t Is Reported.
Hearing to Be Held
Today.

New York, Sept. IO.-Dutiable goods to
the value of 5000 have been found by
customs inspectors in the twenty trunks
taken from Mrs. Frank B. Wiberg and
her three daughters when they arrived
Friday on the Mauretania. In her form
al declaration, signed for herself and
daughters, Mrs. Wiberg, il is understood,
stated that they had not brought over
articles of more than 500 value on which
they should pay duty. 1t is believed that
the difference, should it exist, was due
to an inadvertence.
A preliminary hearing will be given To-
morrow by Gen. Nelson NJ. Henry, sur
veyor OF the port. Mrs. Wiberg or her
representatives will then have an oppOr-
tunity to explain whether the articles
noted by the inspectors were purchased
in the United States or abroad.
The examination was completed tonight
and an effort was made to communicate
with Mr.. Wiborg at East Hampton, Long
Island, where he has a beautiful country
place. At the Ritz-Carlton it was stated
that Mrs. Wiborg was staying there, but
that she was not in.
Mrs. Wiborg and her daughters re-
turned Friday from London. Mrs. Wiborg
had won the distinction of the most popu-
lar American hostess during the season
just ended.
Mrs. Wiborg is sister of Mrs. Colgate
Hoyt and is related by marriage to Gen.
Nelson A. Miles. Both she and her
daughters have been presented at the
German count and complimented upon
their beauty by the Kaiser. The family
and that of former President Taft are

DISCRIMINATION CHARGED
IN IMMIGRATION CASES
W. u. Ord Tells Senate Committee
that heefe Refused Admittancc
Into West virginia,


William B. Ord. West Virginia coal
operator in the Pocahontas district, told
the Senate investigating committee yes
terday that the officials at Ellis Island,
acting under instructions from Commits
sioner General of Immigration Keefe, had
refused to permit immigrants to go into
the West Virginia mines at Ord's solicita-
ton. although more than 1900 were per
mitted TO go to Pennsylvania.
The only excuse made for this alleged
discrimination, which continues to exist,
was that the West Virginia mines were
dangerous. He sad that John Nugent,
Commissioner of immigration for West
Virginia, succeeded in getting the en-
barge lifted for three days for the benefit
of the Consolidated Coal Company, but
that the miners who went into the dis
trict first were required to subscribe to
the rules of the United Mine Workers.
L. n. Barger corroborated the charges
of discrimination made by Mr.. Ord. and
said that West Virginia miners who had
friends coming from abroad found that
they had no difficulty in getting their
friends and relatives TO West Virginia
through Boston.
C. L Green, in charge of the Federal
immigration information Office at II Pearl
Street, New York, said that no informa-
ton on mines was given to immigrants,
and TINT there was a general depart
menta< regulation against sending immi-
grants TO coal, lead, and other dangerous
mines. He deniad the charges of discrimi-
nation.

Then the tug Cynthia II came up and
towed the disabled craft to Fort Screven,
where the injured were given attention.

Fort Screven.
Risks Life O Save Mates.
No statement as to the cause of the
accident has been given out. McCaffery,
in his delirium before DEAN called con-
stantly, low water, low water" which
leads to the supposition that the water
was allowed TO get too low in the boiler.
D. B. Smith, another water tender,
risked his life to go to the rescue OF
his Imprisoned mates. He was badly
burned. Twenty-Five tubes blew out.
The boat is not otherwise damaged. The
