ITALIAN GOVERNMENT TELEGRAPH SERVICE
 BRINGS COMPLAINTS

| ROME, Sept. 24--Complaint that
 the government postal and telegraph
 service is poor is crystalized in a
 statement by Professor Ugo -Ancona, member of the recent Italian cab inet, who declares that the Ministry l,of Posts and Telegraphs must be abolished and organized anew. The Professor suggests also that subsi- diary branch of the Ministry except the savings banks, be given over to
 private enterprise, declaring that it
 is impossible to go on as things now
 pre-
 Professor Ancona charges that the Ministry is a hopeless maid of all work" which tries to operate the postal service, telegraphs, tele- : phones, savings banks, loans and na- ! tional lotteries and that it does all ! of these services poorly. The public :, is rapidly learning to send parcels
 by private firms since of those con
 fded to the state more than 20 per cent do not arrive, while 30 per cent of those received are without i their contents, says the Professor ! He charges also that the Ministry | of Posts is enormously overstaffed with about 66,000 employees, some : of whom are terribly underpaid,' '
 and that both discipline and organ i ization are sadly wanting. 1 The Ministry had deficit equiv
 alent to $13,00O,000 in it's budget , for last year owing to greatly in
 creased operating expenses anc
 wages. The deficit is expected to
 reach $30,OO0,000 for the current
 year.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
 FISHERMEN JUBlLANT
 OVER ALBACORE CATCH

SAN DIEGO, Cal, Sept 24.-Fish- ermen, packers and others connected with or dependent upon the local tuna and albacore fisheries are jubi- lant this year, both at the size of the catch so far taken and al the fact that the fish schools are be- ing found comparatively near the harbor and canneries.
 The catch of those two fish since May has totalled about $2,5O00O0 in value, according to cannery esti- mates. Because the fish are run ming near the harbor fishermen are saved much of the time usually spent in going to and from the fish ing grounds, and are able to earn considerably larger sums in a given time.

TRAINS CROWDED
ON LAST DAY OF
+. LOW RAIL RATES
Officials Expect Lessening Of
Travel, But Increase in Re-
ceipts From Fares.

The final rush of people who took
advantage of the last day of low
rates, expiring at midnight last
night, went through Omaha Thurs
day. Railway lines were loaded to
the limit
Though officials say it is too early
to predict the effect of the fare in
creases on travel. they expect les
sening. In spite of a decrease in the
number of fares, they believe the re-
ceipts from fares will be as large or
larger than formerly.
The old Scent rate is still in ef-
feet in intrastate travel, and people
travelling from one town to another
in Nebraska may do so at the old
Scent rate.
Railroads also reported a last
minute rush of shippers, endeavoring
to get cars under the old tariff.
Freight loaded before midnight was
entitled to the old rate, as we'll as
grain shipped to Omaha in transit,
which may be held for two weeks
and sent on without higher charge.

HAYS WILL Give
STARTLING DOPE
|0N DEMOS STAND
Republican Chairman Prom
ises to Reveal Figures in
Regard to Democratic
Campaign Funds.

New York, Aug. 26.-It was
stated at republican national head
quarters here today that Will H.
Hays, national chairman, will give
some startling figures regarding
democratic campaign funds in Chi
cago next Monday when he testifes
before the senate committee investi-
eating presidential campaign expen-
ditures.
Although none of the party's lead
crs would state the exact nature of
the facts to be presented by Mr..
Hays, the impression given was that
they would deal with sums raised by
the democrats since 1916, greater
than the republicans have raised in
the same period"
81 will try to conhne the senate
committees attention to the funda-
of Governor Cox's charge"
Mr.. Hays said. "Regardless of the
amounts he has quoted, however
their size, Governor Cox
may not attack the integrity of those
who have contributed toward the
fund of less than a million which we
have raised. These sources are not
sinister for corrupt They rep
resent the best of our American
citizenship.
Then l will prove to the commit
tee that the statement regarding
millions raised by the national COM
mittee is untrue"
Mr.. Hays refused to go into de-
tail on the facts that he would pre-
sent regarding the democratic
funds.
George White. chairman of the
democratic national committee. said
that he had no comment to make on
a published report that the failure of
the democratic party to gain financial
support from the quarters upon
which it had counted precipitated
Governor Cox's attacks on the re-
publican budget.
