ENGINEERS COME
TO DAM DEFENSE
Effect of Waves on Navigation
Below Keokuk Held Neg
hgible by Experts.

Keokuk, Ia Dec. 5.-The effect of
tha- big Keofauk- dam or navigation be
low it is negligible it was announced
yesterday by war department engi-
neers, who conducted a series of elab-
orate tests recently in order to study
the characteristics of waves produced
by releasing large quantities of water
at once from the lake above the dam.
All sorts of huge waves were pro-
duced experimentally by the govern
ment engineers by manipulating the
gates of the dam in a manner never
done in actual operation of the water
power, but TO make a much more
severe test. They found that some of
the effect on the river disappeared at
Canton and some at Quincy, and that
changes actually produced in operat-
ing the water power disappear at the
bridge crossing and at the excavated
channel just below the new lock
a great amount of data was ac-
cumulated, but the figures turn out to
have only an academic interest to en-
gineers rather than to be of concrete
to steamboat men,

Steal Eggs In Great Robbery.

Bloomington, Ill, Dec. 5.-In a sen

the chief loot was:
Six eggs.
Minor articles taken were:
Two watches.
One revolver.
Over the city the police have thrown
a dragnet and unusual efforts are max.
ing TO capture the eggg robber. who
is supposed TO be one OF an organized
gang. Extra locks have been placed
on larders and at some homes where
there are a dozen or more eggs, Wig
ilantes are standing guard.
The six eggs were taken from the
home Of Lester Hulva. They we're
boiled on a gas stove and eaten before
the looters left the house. At cur

make a more comprehensive study of
federal and state engineering reports
upon the water way projects before
reaching a decision as to the best
method of eXpending the 100000, 900
raised by the recent loan. He added
that he would like to initiate the pro-
ject under his term of office, but he
is more anxious to select the scheme
of development best adapted to the
interests of the state than he is to
make an early start on actual work

Question to be Talked by
Republican National
Committee Dec.16.
CONGRESS MAY DECIDE
Belief That Nominating Con-
ventionS Will Be Eliminated
in Another Year.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The question
of direct presidential primaries
brought into public discussion through
reference in the presidents message,
will be prominent in the deliberations
of the republican national committee
meeting here Dec. 16.
Many think congress may provide
primaries that will eliminate nomi-
mating conventions before the next
presidential election. Senator Cum
Minis said today discussion of presi-
dental primaries should not interfere
with holding a special convention to
reform the rules of the republican
party and make organization more ef-
fective.
Detroit, Mich, Dec. 5.-"The repub-
Iican national committee has no au-
thority to change the basis of repre-
sentation and voting in national con-
ventions.
THE national committee has au-
thority to change the manner and
method of choosing delegates to
future national conventions so as to
provide that delegates be chosen in
such manner as the laws of the sew
eral states from time to time may pro-
vide Delegates shall be chosen &C
cording to the laws of the state they
represent instead of according to the
discretion of the committee itself.
The NATIONAL committee has the
authority to call a special national
convention of the party, the legal form
of which call is provided by the legal
committee
The foregoing conclusions are reach
ed in an opinion made public here by
Charles b. Warren of Detroit, chair
man of the legal committee, appointed
by the executive committee of the re-
publican national committee.
The executive committee in Wash
ington, May "a last, adopted a resolu-
tion requesting the chairman to call
meeting of the national committee,

gress convened in March. 1913. The
national committee will consider

examination of the questions that
would arise.
Expect Compromise.
New York. Dec. 5.-A conference
took place today between all men who

Escapes Serving Term
Nine Years Ago Through
Court Clerks Error.
WINS WAY IN WORLD
Now Superintendent of Chicago
Department Store-FriendS
lnterCede.

Chicago, Ill, Dec. 5.-Joshua Ted
ford, whose case presents unusual
features, involving escape from pun
ishment after conviction for con-
spiracy and rise in life which placed
him in the superintendency of one of
Chicago's great clothing stores, will
be recommended to Governor Dunno
for a pardon.
Tedford was convicted nine years
ago on a charge of conspiracy to spirit
away a witness and was sentenced to
from one to five years in the peniten-
tiary.s He escaped prison through an
error of a court clerk, who pigeon
holed the mandate of the supreme
court of Illinois upholding Tedford's
conviction, and the document never
reached the trial judge.
The tell-tale verdict has just been
unearthed through remarks of n po-
lice court lawyer. who, piqued because
client of his own had been con-
victed, brought il up. In the Ted
ford case it is said he escaped because
of influential friends. This brought
out the finding of the mislaid mandate
in the Tedford decision.
Takes Job as Policeman.
While an appeal was pending Ted
ford got position as policeman, then
as special officer in a clothing store,
in which he rose by -ability-and 10y
atty to be superintendent. George
Lytton, vice president of the company.
said he believed Tedford innocent, and
at any rate his career had shown his
liberty had done more to make a man
Of him than several years in prison.
No Steps Yet Taken.
Chief Justice Olson of the municipal
court, who at the time Of Tedford's
was assistant states attor-
ney, will recommend that Governor
Dunno pardon him. Tedford was at
his place of business today as usual
No steps have been taken but assist
ant States Attorney Sullivan, speak
ing in the absence of his chief, Maclay
Hoyne, said he would investigate the
unusual case thoroughly. "If guilty,
| do not see why he should not go TO
the penitentiary." said Sullivan.
