SAN JUAN.
Halts Steamer Odenwald as She At
tempts to Pass Out Without
Clearance Papers.

San Juan, Porto Rico, March 23.-
The German merchant steamer Oden-
valid, which attempted to leave port
without obtaining clearance papers,
was stopped as she was passing out
of the entrance to the harbor by two
shots across her bow from 5-inch
gun and dozen shots from Maxim.
She then returned and was taken in
charge by the collector of customs.
Permission to sail was refused the
Odenwald by the collector, pending in.
structions from Washington. The
Odenwald has been at San Juan since
Aug. 6. She was bound for European
ports from the West Indies with
freight and passengers and sought ref
uge here. Three days ago she began
coaling and taking on provisions.
Failing to obtain tie necessary clear
ance papers, her commander apparent
ly decided to risk the attempt to put to
sea. A heavy gun on Moro castle
sent two shots across her bows by way
of warning, but it was not until the
machine gun opened direct fire that
the steamer stopped and headed back
to port.

HOUSE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS
PASSAGE OF BILL AFTER
HEARING STORIES OF
EXTRAVAGANCE.
HBLUE MILK" BILL MEETS
DEATH IN LOWER HOUSE
Sullivan Measure, Which Was At.
tackled by Many Civic Bodies, is
Indefinitely Postponed-Milk
Label Bill Is Advanced
Then Postponed.

ST. Paul, March 23.-Speakers before
a house committee told so remarkable
story Of extravagant expenditures of
money by the st. Louis county iron
mining towns that the committee
unanimously recommended to pass a
bill limiting the expenditures of vii
lagos and small towns.
When someone suggests on the iron
range a new way to spend money the
band plays Hail, the Conquering
Hero Comes" the speakers declared.
In more serious vein they touched
upon the moral effect of retaining bet
ter than half the voting population on
the city payroll and of equipping
schools in manner so magnificent as
to be entirely out of keeping with the
home lives of the girls and boys.
Mine for Each Town.
The situation arises from the fact
that the range towns concerned have
within their respective village limits
at least on immensely valuable iron
mine each. According to figures pre-
sented in these mining towns the min
ing properties pay all the way from
"a to 90 per cent of the taxes. In the
words Of one speaker, it has been lone
magnificent debauch with other peo-
pies money"
The bill under discussion was that
introduced by ]. H. Harrison of Mime
apolis, il house member. The hearing
was before the house committee en-
cities, of which A. L. Lennon Of Min
neapolis is chairman. The bill would
limit the current expenses of govern
ment in small villages and cities of the
smaller class to $25 per year per cap
ita, this not to include expenditures for
school purposes. The per capita would
be figured on the basis of the last
Federal census, except where the yil-
lage or city in question d esired that
new census be aiken and then it
would be done by the state tax com
mission.
The so-called Sullivan blue milk
bill, which passed the senate by a
large vote sometime ago, met with an
overwhelming death when the house
in committee of the whole voted to in
definitely postpone the measure. 1t
would reduce the percentage of but
terfat in milk from 81 to 3 per cent.
Senator Sullivan advanced his milk
label bill in the senate. the bill was
introduced after women's organiza-
tions ALI civic bodies had attacked mis-
blue mix" bill.
When Senator Sullivan heard that
his blue milk" bill had been defeated
in the house, he moved that the label
bill be indefinitely postponed. 1t was
done.

WOULD KEEP SALOONS FROM
CASTING lABORERS' CHECKS,

Representative Theodore Christian

indefinite postponement of his bill pro-
hibiting cashing of laborers' checks in
licensed saloons. The bill was ORDER
ed printed and placed on the general
orders by vote of Sc to 20.
"The bill is not aimed to restrict
saloons, but it's chief object is TO safe

1icted to LIQUOR" said Representative
Christianson.

Roads Could CHARGE 3 Cent?.

Representative c. NJ. Bendixen's bin
amending the 2-cent passenger rate
law was advanced from general orders
to the calendar, after an attempt by
the author to obtain final action.
The supreme court interpreted the
present Bendixen law to mean that a
railroad could charge cents a mile
for the first five miles Of any trip. In
stead of cents mile for trips not
exceeding five miles, as was intended
by the bill.
The amended bill would correct this
feature.

House Far Behind in Work,

The lower house of the Minnesota
legislature is so far behind in its work
that there is every indication that only
half as many laws will be passed this
session as were ! ut on the books by

In 1913 there were adopted 594
laws. With two-thirds Of the session
of 1915 gone, less than so bills have
weathered the various legislative haz-
ards and reached the statute books.
