o. KS RESOLUTION
T FOR /. C.L INQUIRY
Senate D. C. Committee Acts.
Chairman Sherman Would
Include Rent Question.
WILL COVER WIDE RANGE

The Senate committee on the Dis
vorably resolution authorizing a
subcommittee to proceed to the in
yestiEation of the high cost of living
in the District of Columbia. and to
estimate the relative cost of living in
other cities. Senasor. shsfsffast chair
man of the committee, will sit with
the subcommittee, and it is his idea
that the investigation shall include
the question of rent, which he thinks
will become acute after the Sauls-
bury amendment becomes imperative.
The resolution was sent to the COM
mittee to audit and control the con-
ttngent expenses of the Senate for
action before adoption by the Senate.
The resolution provides for the send
ing for persons and papers and the
employment of. expert assistance, as
well as a stenographer to report the
testimony.
At the meeting of the full commit
tee this morning. which was open.
not dissenting voice was raised
against the proposed investigation,
and all senators present expressed
themselves as heartily in favor of it's
being prosecuted with vigor and over
a wide and exhaustive range.
AS soon as the enabling resolution
is adopted Senator Sherman will take
up with the subcommittee the ques-
tion of beginning the investigation.
He is in favor of starting at an
early date.
Protest of Meat Price.
During tn informal discussion of
the proposed investigation today, SEN
ator Capper of Kansas gave the re-
suit of his experience in the past fort
night in inquiries as to the cause of
the increased price of meat products.
He said that for weeks he has been
deluged with communications from
Kansas and from other parts of the
west, as to the slump in the price of
cattle on the hoof. 1t has become a
very serious thing to the cattle
raisers, as there has been a DECLINE of
from 25 per cent to 33A per cent in
the past ninety days.
Notwithstanding that fact. the re-
tail price of meat has kept up and in
creased. He said the bureau of mar
kets had recently made inquiry in
eight large cities and found that,
while there had been slight reduc-
ton in the wholesale price of beef,
following the downward trend of cat
tie on the hoof. there had been no les
sening of retail prices.
$50. it would SEEM" remarked Sena-
tor Capper, that the retailer is doing
the most of the profiteering" But, he
added. the packers were sharing in
another feature of the anomaly in
prices. Hides from these cattle had
increased during the slump in the
price of the cattle as much as 60 Der
cent. which foreshadowed a big in
crease in shoes. The packers. he said.
were profting by this big jump in
hides.

ALLEGED ASSAULT
Seek Grounds to Press
Charges in Behalf Of
messenger Girl"

Investigation into a reported attack
upon a Western Union messenger girl
while in the subway connecting the
Senate office building with the Capitol
Friday afternoon was taken up by
Western Union officials today, with
intent to press charges against the
alleged assailant of the girl.
According to reports, the girl was
coming through the subway with mes
sages on Friday afternoon when 4
white man stopped her and attempted
to make an engagement for the even
ing. On her refusal. Capitol police
say. he grabbed her and attempted to
force personal attentions on her. She
screamed and the approach OF foot-
steps caused him to release her.
The girl rode up into the Capitol
building in the same elevator with
the man. She did not make a COM
nlaint until some time later. and a
detective from the police headquar-
ters in the Capitol was assigned to
the case.
Begin Probe at Once.
When the matter was brought be-
fore H. F. Taft, general superinten-
dent of this district of the Western
Union company this morning. he de-
clared that an investigation would
begin at once.
w. r. Williams, District manager,
and a superintendent of delivery, un-
der whose jurisdiction the girl was
working. went to the Capitol this
morning to investigate the charges.
IF we find any basis whatever for
prosecution" declared Mr.. Williams,
I'VE will press charges. The COM
pany intends to look after the inter-
ests of it's woman employees, especial
ly, to the fullest extent. If we get
this man and have any sort Of case
whatever, we will press the charges
to the finish. We believe that an ex-
ample should be made of the man, in
order to safeguard the interests Of
the other messenger girls in the en-
ploy of the company. The company
will take up the fight on the verifica
ton Of any charges"
Deserted for Several Minutes.
During late hours of the afternoon
the subway between the Senate office
building and the Capitol is often de-
serted except for few pedestrians
passing at short intervals of time be-
tween the offices. AT some periods as
much as five or ten minutes elapSes
before any one passes. 1t was in one
of these periods of desertion, it is de-
clared. that the alleged attack was
made.
Police at the Capitol on finding re-
Iuctance on the part of the girl to
press charges, declared that they
would make an examination of the
charges at any rate. and assigned a
detective to the work. The man who
grabbed the girl is not believed to
have been an employe of the Capitol
by them. 1t is said. however. that he
had been seen lettering In the vicinity
of the subway several times.

day means that the agricultural bill
as passed by both houses of Congress
is dend. Under the rules of the
House it will be necessary to intro
duce the measure as an entirely new
bill and again go through all the

it section by section. subject to
amendment. Thus will be opened up
an opportunity for members to en-
deavor to insert entirely new propo-
sbvions in the bill. No intimation
was given on the floor today regard
ing what action will be taken.

with the repeal rider eliminated. and

COMMITTEE APPROVES
RETIREMENT MEASURE
Favorable Report to House Ordered
on Bill in Interest of Gov
ernment Clerks.

A favorable report to the House on
for age and disa bility was today or
dered by the House committee on re-
form III the civil service. This bill
was fathered by Chairman Lehlbach
of the committee and it embodieS the
proposals urged by the joint confer
ence of the various associations and
organizations of federal employees.
1t also carries the support of cabinet
members and the chiefs and chief
clerks of practically every govern
ment establishment.
Chairman to Draft Report.
Chairman Lehlbach was instructed
by the committee to draft the report
for submission to the House tomor-
row. The only change made by the
committee was to broaden the scope
of the measure SO as to include en-
ployes in the Panama Canal Zone and
superintendents of national ceme-
teries. 1t is expected that this meas
ure will be brought up for consider
alton in the House some time during
this summer.
The membership of the House gen.
orally is favorable to- the proposed
sides were among those who testified
at the hearing conducted by the civil
service committee.
Regarded as Real Economy.
The members feel that real economy
in the government service can be
made, and that efficiency can be pro-
NOTED by the institution of such a
system which will weed out long
time faithful employees who are no
longer able to perform the govern
ment work. but who are kept on the
rolls virtually as pensioners in order
that they may not be forced into poor
houses.
Government officials urged such
arguments. and insisted that a pen
sion system was in reality now in
operation. and that by getting new
blood into the service work could be
expedited and at the same time en-
ployes be made to realize that the
government would care for them in
their old age in return for faithful
service.

Gibbs Boxing Law
Plans to Prevent
Fake Ring Battles

ALBANY, Feb. 90 Senator L. w. H.
Gibbs, of Buffalo, announced to-day
that there would be several important
amendments made to his bill restor-
ing boxing and that the perfected
measure would be in shape before
March II, when fight fans from all
over the state will come to Albany
to urge the law makers to pass the
proposed law.
One of the amendments will pre-
vent fake bouts, or at least make them
so expensive TO the mercenary pro
moters and dishonest boxers who lend
themselves to this sort of thing that
there will be no profit in it.
Each club licensed to hold contests
will be required to put up stiff bond
which will be forfeited in the event
of a fake contest being pulled under
its roof. In New York City, Buffalo
and Rochester the surety required will
be $4,000; in second class cities a
bond of $4,000 will be exacted, and
$4,000 in all other municipalities.
AS an additional safeguard against
fake bouts, no contestant Shall receive
his purse until after the bout and
should the referee decide the contest
was faxed the money shall be with.
held from the fighters
Another protective feature in the
proposed amendments makes punish
able by fine or Imprisonment, or both.
speculatng in tickets. This amend
ment provides that the price Of ad-
mission shall be printed on each ticket,
and that no ticket shall be sold above
the printed price.
