ARREST MANAGER
Of KNOWN DOCTORS

A bottle of tea sent for examination
by a prospective patient who proved
to be in the service of the government,
is, alleged to have been the cause Of
the arrest of B. ]. Chenoski, manager
of the Known Doctors in Ottumwa,
this morning. The arrest Of Mr..
Chenoski and his leaving for Des
Moines with Deputy Marshal. Frank
Hardy at 1920 o'clock this morning
for arraignment is said to be due to
the report alleged to have been made
after the examination of the bottle of
tea, in which it is claimed the sender
of the tea suffered from diabetes or
some such ailment, and would be treat
ed for a certain sum with prospect Of
cure. -..... ....
The story of the letter was told by
federal officer in whose possession 1t
Is said to be held as evidence. The
report having been sent by mail to the
sender of the tea, fraud is thereby al.
legged in the use of the mails
The arrest of B. J. Chenosk occurred
this morning by Deputy Marshal Hardy
in one of the local restaurants while
he was at breakfast. He was taken by
the officer without finishing his meal.
The warrant did not make specific
charge beyond the violation of the fed
eral statutes, criminal section No. 81.
Officer Hardy was unable before leav-
ing to determine the exact charge, but
United States Commissioner A. w.
Enoch says it refers to violation Of the
postal laws by fraud.
Seven warrants for as many prac-
titioners in various parts Of the south
ern district of United States court in
Iowa weresent Deputy Marshal Hardy
but the names of the persons wanted
were not divulged by the officer, be-
yond the fact that none other from Of
tumwa were charged aside from Mr..
Chenoski. A general movement in the
federal court is underway throughout
the state in postal law fraud cases and
several physicians are said to have al
ready been arrested with more to fol-
low as soon as the officers can find
their quarry. The arraignment Of the
Ottumwa man takes place before
Judge Smith Mcpherson In the United
States court at Des Moines.

Is expected to be highly beneficial to
the women students and to the college
as whole. It will, however, be dis
tinct loss to many householders who
have bought or built houses in the
neighborhood Of the college in recent
years depending more or less for a
living or income upon the opportunity
they would have for renting rooms to
students. Plans are also being made
for the housing OF college men after
the same fashion. It is thought the
cost of living will be from 81 to Sc a

THE TARIFF LOBBY.

AS representative of all the people

the President acted judiciously III
warning the nation of the operations
of the tariff lobby, which seeks to

the people. Expert lobbyists in the
employ of the bencfciaries of the pres

ing into Washington, attempting by
all their subtle and diabolionl arts to
threaten. intiinidate or corrupt enough
senators to mutilate or emasculate the
tariff bill. In his persuasiveness and

there but uses all methods of misrep-

from which waverng Senators come
If any Senator is regarded as suscep-
tible to influences. all possible pressure
Will be brought to bear upon him.
There is no means of blocking the
lobby. There is no way to draw the
line between the lobbyist who is within
his rights and the lobbyist who would
use foul means to attain his end.
There is in Washington to-day the
greatest and most INSCRIPTIONS lobby
that has over besieged Congress- The
protected interests are making their
last stand, and they are desperate.
They Will not. without death strug-
gle. loose their grip upon the graft
that the government has given them.
The Democratic administration was
sent into power that it might lower
duties and reduce the profits upon
which protection has fattened. but spe-
cial privilege dies hard.
The eyes of the country are upon
the Individual members of the senate
of the United States. The nation is
on guard If Democratic votes can be
changed, the burden of proving their
sincerity is upon the Democrats who
cast them. The Democratic party has
