secret session to be held would have
a most deplorable effect upon public
opinion. not only in this country, but

Jack Rabbit Broke
Ann of Puruer
Graham County Boy sEricd to Catch
Jack" With His Hands-Now He's
Casualty

Wakeeney, Kan. Nov From
south Graham county, north of Wa
keeney, comes rather a peculiar rab-
bit story. Recently while Mr.. and
Mrs. Jerry Dorman and son were out
in a field the dog, which was with the
boy, spied &. jack rabbit and was after
it down a furrow, and the bunny was
bent on keeping ahead of the enemy.
Conceiving the idea of catching the
rabbit in his hands the lad got down
in the furrow ahead of the race. The
rabbit attempted to make a big jump
over the lad, but failed, and struck
the boy just below the elbow, squarely
on the forearm, killing the jack and
knocking the boys elbow out of joint
by the impact.
: physician was called to treat the
boy and it is said he will be ready to
catch another jack in a short time.

Barred From Game, Attell
Is Held for Sale of Ticket
Released in $500 Bail After
Maintaining That His Name
Was .TOseph Wellar

Abe Attell, former prize fighter, one
of the foremost figures in the recent
Chicago White Sox baseball scandal,
who is barred from the Polo Grounds
by order OF the management, made
three attempts yesterday to gain ad-
mission to ths White Sox-Yankee
game. He was detected in each in
stance and turned away.
Later Attell disposed of bleacher
ticket he had in his possession to a
purchaser at 155th Street and Eighth
Avenue. He was arrested for ticket
speculating by detective Cummings, of
the 9th Inspection District, who took
him to the 135th Street police station.
He was released on $500 bail.
AttelPs arrest was said by the police
to have been due to violation of sec
tion 1884 of the penal code which makes
it a misdemeanor to sell tickets with
out license. When taken to the sta
tion, the prisoner said his name was
Joseph Wellar, according 70 the police
He gave his age as thirty ght and his
occupation as that of a clerk. He de-
MED that he had sold the ticket, de-
claring he had given it to the man who
was stranger to him. Although in
formed that his identity was known,
Attel is said to have insisted that he
was Wellar and that he would make
somebody suffer for false arrest

Frear Charges
Dye Men Seek
Aid In Cabinet
Says Monopoly Headed by
llemical Foundation
Tried TO Influence Three
i'll Favor Of Embargo
Flaws 'Brazen IInnronterv
Mentions Letters Written
by Weeks and Denby aud
Complains Of Dauslleriy

WASHINGTON, Aug. THE charges
that the dye monopoly, headed
by the Chemical Foundation Company
has sought to influence three members
of President Hardings Cabinet in an
effort to perpetuate its present exclu-
sive power in this country is made
ty Representative Frear Republican,
OF Wisconsin, in d letter TO Chairman
Penrose of the Senate committee con-
siderne the tariff bill. The communi-
cation was made public to-day by Mr.
Frear with the announcement that
copies had been sent to the President
and Ito others who would seem to
speak with authority on matters" con
tanned in it.
The Wisconsin member, who led the
successful fight in the House against
the dye embargo in the Fordney bill,
referred specifically To the letters
written to Senator Penrosc by Secre-
taries Weeks and DENLY, who urged
continuance of the embargo so that
the country might be provided with
chemicals in the event of war. Mr..
Frear also declared that Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty had failed to acknowl-
edge or act upon his letter Of July IS.
"No invisible government said MI.
Frear, "has ever shown more brazen
effrontery than this dye monopoly. We
may we'll be concerned over the power
of these dye interests that reach tc
three Cabinet officers in their effort e.
perpetuate their present exclusive
power in this country
THE argument that he should pre-
serve this half billion dollar domestic
dye monopoly with its excessive prices
and enormous power because of ap
preaching war and through need o
private protection is both preposterou'
and ridiculous.
"The charter of this dye embarg,
effort" continued MIR. Frear, "that pu'
through the House last session a bill
drawn by Mr.. Choate, according to III
formation in my possession, and paic
S100,0 coo in lobby fees, suggests wha'
power lies behind these interests which
obtain Endorsements from high Admin
istration officers, and apparently pre-
vents action upon the facts stated.
Would Call Interests to Account
"The dye embargo cannot be pu
through Congress, in my judgment, bu
these interests could be called to ac
count and the fraudulent contract Sc
aside in order to protect the govern
ment's interests, and l ask your cooper
alton in trying to secure prosecution
on such charges as are contained in m.
letter to Mr.. Daugherty."
Representative Frear also issued
statement warning Congress that if i
lodges responsibility IN tax revision
or seeks to deceive itself or the peopl'
with false promises "the chickens viii
come home to roost."

Keller Says Government
Is Ruled by Wall Street
Minnesota Representative A.
lacks Tariff, Farm Exports
and Roll Refunding Bills


WASHINGTON, Aug Tn state
ment issued to-day Representative
Oscar Z. Keller, Of st. Paul, Mimi, who
is listed in the Congrc cssonal Direc-
tory as an independent Republican,
scored the Administration for blind
obedience to Wall Street.
"The machinery Of government has
been commandeered by a little CLIQUE
ignorant Of the A, B. C's of economics, -
he declared, who have tied down the
safety valve of free discussion until
an explosion threatens which will
scatter the Republican party from
Maine to California"
Mr.. Keller insisted that the Stupid
selfish and short-sghted policy" of the
Administration and clements in Con
gress was retarding prosperity and
causing profound dstrust and discon-
tent among the people.
Representative Keller specifically at
tackled the Administrations attitude On
railroad refunding, the Norris farm
export bill, the tordncy tariff and the
suggested changes in the revenue bill
pending before the House Ways and
Means Committee. He said "the Presi
dents advisers seem to think il Dos
slble for this country to lifG itself by
its economic bootstraps" He referred
to the proposed refund of 5000 900 600
to the railroads, and alleged that 'the
House Ways and Means Committee has
demonstrated its utter unfitness to
deal intelligentiy with the great fnan-
clal measures on which to a great de-
gree the prosperity Of the country de
pcnds."
