Des Moines, July l5.-Dr Mary l..
Neff, who was employed temporarily
to do some work at the state reforma-
tory in making mental tests of the
prisoners under the Binet- Simons sys-
tenn, has reported results IF some ex-
aminations made of the prisoners. Un-
der this system, an examination is
made which is recorded as indicating
the mental development as compared

suit showed surprisingly large num-

age. SO also, Mrs. Kruger, the aged
prisoner, now II, is of abou. the same
mental age. These reports are made
for the information of the board of
control and the parole board as guide
to dealing with the prisoners.
1t has become evident that the war
on Warden Sanders and reform meth
DDS at the state prison, es carried on
at Fort Madison, is being prolonged
purposely to the embarrassment of
state officials and solely for the pur-
pose Of causing all the delay possible.
1t has been the intention of the attor-
ney general to go to Fort Madison and
get the matter before a district court.
For one reason or another II is being
put off-the attorneys are busy, the
court wants to take a vacation, etc.
Now the matter will be taken direct to
the supreme court and writ Of habeas

highest tribunal. In this way it will
be determined whether the politicians
Of Fort Madison can make good on an
ordinance to make it a crime for the
warden of the prison to adopt fairly

asked to take up the case at once.

EIGHT HOUR BILL IS
SENT TO PRESIDENT
Measure Provides For Limit to
Employment Of Women
Workers in District.

The La Toilette eight-hour bill. af-
fecting women workers in mercantile
and Industrial establishments of the
District, went to the President today.
and it is believed he will afix his
signature.
AS forecast in the $50 edition of
The Times. the bill passed the House
late yesterday without amendment.
The vote in the House was unani-
nous, and minor amendments were
rejected, in order that the bill might
speedily become a law without a de-
lay in conference.
The provisions of the bill. published
In The Times. apply to women work
ers in manufacturing, mechanical, or
mercantile establishments, laundries,
hotels, restaurants, telephone, tele-
graph, and express companies En-
pIoyers of females in these lines of
industry are forbidden to work them
mere than eight hours day.
The bill contains provisions for pub
licity of records Of female employ
ments, and three inspectors are pro-
vided to see that the law is not vio-
lated. These inspectors will make
daily reports to the Commissioners.

STUDENT EDITORS
IMPRESS SENATORS
High School Pupils FeIicitate
Heads of Publications on
Success of Activity.

In all the Washington nigh schools
today the editors OF the high school
publications are being felicitated by
their fellow-students upon the evident
impression made by them on the Sen
ate Subcommittee on Appropriations, be-
fore whom they appeared this week TO
protest against the joker in the District
appropriatien bill. under the terms Of
which the school authorities believe 1t
would be impossible to continue the pub
lication Of school papers.
Watson Davis, Of the Easterner, who
headed the delegation. was especially
commended. not alone by his fellow
students. but by the faculty Of Western
High School, who previously had
thought best for the students to leave
the matter to the Board Of Education.
President Henry P. Blair was called
before the committee a week ago and
was questioned by Chairman Smith on
matters in the bill affecting the schools
Mr.. Blair did not present the students
side of the controversy thoroughly, nor
did he impress the committee, the
students think. with the injustice tina;
will be done If the Objectionable clause
is retained.
In winning the committee TO their way
OF thinking. the young editors are
thought TO have done a great service q
the schools, as student activities woult
be seriously impeded If the restrictive
clause should be retained, according Il
high school pupils.
