BUDGET CUT IS ORDERED
OFFICIALS ASKED TO PREPARE
YEARLY ESTIMATES.
Gives Notice to Depart,
ment Heads That Expenses
Must Be Slashed.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.-EXcept in case of urgent
need at penal institutions, and other
institutions where confinement is in
voluntary and where public safety ne
cessitates, all state institutions must
expect to keep their maintenance and
other expenses within their revenues
for the present biennial period, ac-
cording to administration plans.
Every department of the state gov
eminent must cut its estimated and
actual expenses to the minimum, and
heads of departments must voluntarily
make such reductions in the number
of employees and slashes in wages as
may be possible without jeopardizing
efficiency.
The state administration acting
through Senate and House finance and
appropriations committees has given
due notice of this to institutions and
to department heads.
The finance and appropriations com
mittees began work calling for esti-
mates of expenses for the period un'
der the budget system advocated by
the administration.
All estimates will be taken into con
sideration Jointly and severally and il
found to be within the estimated reve-
nues-after the inheritance tax esti-
mated income has been subtracted
from the estimated general revenues
of the appropriations will be
made in accordance herewith.
This is the program Of the admins
tration. What actually is done. OF
course. will depend upon Legislative
action. either in conjunction with or
regardless of the action of the state
administrative officers, heads of de-
partments and institutions and others
connected with state finances.

reason always was that women
wanted more frivolous, more conspic.

Sad Tragedy Takes Place Of Festivi-
ties When Carriage Is Struck
BY Michigan Central Flyer
Near Eaton Rapids.

Eaton Rapids-A merry birthday
party was transformed into tragedy
at noon Sunday, when three persons,
representing three generations of a
single family were killed and man
gled under the wheels of the Grand
Rapids section OF the Wolverine Mich
igan Central flyer. at a crossing near
this city.
Mrs. Betsey Stewart, 76 years old;
her son, Amos Stewart, 38 years old,
and her grandson, Donald Stewart,
II years old, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Stewart, were the victims.
The little party was riding in the
Stewart family carriage to the home
of John Stewart, to celebrate his birth
day anniversary. When they reached
the Michigan Central crossing, two
miles from this place, Amos Stewart,
who was driving, failed to hear the
warning signal of the approaching
flyer, and drove his horses to the cen
ter OF the tracks. An instant later
the locomotive struck the carriage
and ground it into fragments.
Mrs. Stewart, who was in the rear
seat, was hurled more than 300 feet
was instantly killed. Her body was
mangled almost beyond recognition,
The other two members of the group
also met death instantly. One Of the
horses was killed and the other in
jured.
