This S~indIer Up to Date.

Thought reading was the method
claimed to have been employed by a
man In Bengal, India, to win large
sums of money on the race course. 1t
turned out TO be a very ingenious form
of swindle. Finding a man who is in
terested In racing, the confidence man
produces a roll of money. and states
that he won this by his ~fore-knowl-
edge of the winners on the track. He
then suggests that his friend test his
knowledge. He induces his victim to
hand him sums of money TO be placed
on the horses, and then vanishes. In
vestigation has proved that this Ben
gall had swindled a number OF peo-
pie of large sums OF money In this
way.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.--Ameri-

Luther M. Walter, general counsel
of the National Association Of Own

ing before the house interstate COM

der this plan all surplus funds earn
ed over the fixed minimum return
would be divided equally between Ia
Dor, the public and the roads earn
ing the surplus.
He declared that labor should par
ticipate in the earnings Of the car
riers and that such participation was
a fundamental of the plan. Mr.. Wal
ter opposed the stand taken by the
chamber of commerce and railroad
executives providing for federal in
corporation, a transportation board
and secretary of transportation in
the cabinet.
The security holders plan, said
Mr.. Walter, provides for congress

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-two more
theaters had been closed by the ac-

here to 13. The latest productions
to succomb were the "Ziegfe1d Fol

"The "Follies'' closed when the
principals walked out after Supreme
Justice Lydon had vacated an order

Of the Actors Equity association,

GOVERNOR DORSEY |
MAY VETO GENERAL!
APPROPRIATION BILL!
Believes Provision That Only
School Warrants Can Be
Drawn Against That Fund
viii Embarrass Treasury

A clause in the general appropria-
ton bill requiring the common school
appropriation to be set aside In .
separate fund on which the governor
shall not draw his warrant for any
other purpose may cause Governor
Dorsey to veto the bill.
This clause held the house and sem
ate in bitter fight that did not end
until 2:S0 O'Clock" Thursday morning.
The governor requested tho house and
senate to strike out the clause be-
cause he believed it would stop the
machinery Of the government. The
house was willing to strike it out,
but the senate refused. After hours
of wrangling the appropriation Dill
finally was passed with the clause
unchanged. The bill now goes before
the governor and he is allowed five
days after it reaches his desk in
which to approve or disapprove 1t.
Governor Dorsey stated Thursday
morning that he would make CARE
full study Of the language of the
clause in question; would confer with
the attorney general and comptroller
general, and would announce his de-
cision at the earliest possible mo-
ment.
The governor still believed Thurs
day that the effect of the clauss
would be to create financial con-
gestion which would prevent the
payment of. Confederate pensions, the
payment Of the running expenses or
the various institutions of the state,
and the payment of the running ex-
penses Of the various departments.
This was frankly the object Of the
authors of the clause when they
wrote it into the general appropria-
ton bill. Representative Anderson.
of Jenkins, one Of the leaders of the
fight In the house, declared Wednes-
day night that such congestion
would have the effect of forcing a
general reorganization of the states
finances, which was exactly the OBJ
ject he desired to accomplish.
Extra Session Likely
Should the governor approve the
bill and let matters take their course,
the congestion in payment of his
warrants on the treasury would not
occur until next year, as the running
expenses for the present year are
provided for in the general appro-
priation bill passed at the 1919 ses-
sion. It probably would occur about
the first of March, when the first
instalment of Confederate pensions
became due. An extraordinary ses-
sion Of the legislature would then be
necessary. a
Should the governor veto the bill
it would be necessary for him to call
the legislature in extraordinary ses-
sion before the first of January, as
the effect of his veto would be to
stop all appropriations after that
date. The machinery of the state
would run to the expiration of the
states fiscal year, which ends De-
cember 81, and then would stop. ~
