INCREASE in MEMBERS
REJECTED BY HOUSE
For Second Time House of Represen-
tatives Refuses to Sanction Plan
for Membership Increase.

(by Associated Press Leased WIPe.)
Washington - The second failure of
the House within year to increase it's
membership beyond 435 virtually
means there will be no addition, ac-
cording to the view expressed today by
leaders of the fight to keep the number
at it's present total.
Having rejected overwhelmingly a
proposal to jump the total to 483, the
House last night refused to make it
460, sending the, bill back to commit
tee with the certainty that it could
not be reported again this session. The
460 measure, it was explained, could
not have reached the House except for
the action of two members of the CEN
sus committee in voting to report it so
as to get it on the floor These two
committee members at the same time
filed minority reports against the in
crease.
Members of the census committee
opposing the increase declared there
was no foundation for assertions that
the Senate was demanding a larger
House. The Senate, they said, felt the
House was big enough and that the
demand for an increase came only from
senators whose states were in danger
of losing representation through lack
of population gain as shown by the
last census.

Wilhelm Dismisses More Servants as
the Value of the German

Doom, Holland The Sizmp in the
German mark is beginning to affect
the former German emperor, who is
endeavoring to combat unfavorable
financial conditions by reducing his
household and other radical measures.
Today ten members of his staff were
dismissed including the chief gard
ener, whose place has been taken by
William himself.
Gardening now has become a hob
by with the former emperor, who ap-
pears to have tired of saving and

General Won Gcntard, the ex-Kaiser's

him to give monetary support to many
of the poor CT Holland and Germany

"The Prussian government has seized
all the estates and the entire capital
of the Hohenzollerns and negotiations

the statement added. "The KaiSer's
only means consist of remittances from
Germany and as the rate of German
currency is so low that hundred

it is evident the money received is
barely sufficinet to provide for the

Followers Refuse to Follow Orders of
Mine Chief Lewis and Get

Pittsburg, Kans. u The administra-

union, continues in office and approx
imately 10000 miners who quit work
several days ago when HowaU and Au-
gust Dorothy, union vice-president were
sent to Jail for six months for violat-
ing the criminal section of the indus
trial court act, remain idle.
Those were the salient features today
in the situation created by the sus-
5ension order and the events leading
ID to it.
Meantime observers here were
watching closely what many thought
was a break in the ranks of the
strikers, with those in the north fav-
oring continued refusal to recognize
the provisional organization set up I'M

in the southern end ready to submit
to the International edict and 60 back

Kenosha county's bill for the keep
ing Of its insane was 27,386.76 for
the past year according to the bills
presented to County Clerk Holderness
this morning from the various state
and county institutions where the I'M
fortunate ones who are cared for at
the county's expense, have been kept
during the past year. 1t is by far
the largest bill which the county has
ever been asked to pay for this pur-
pose and it's presentation has brought
to the front again speculation as to
whether or not Kenosha county should
not have it's own institution for the
care of the insane.
The report shows that during the
past year 1874 patients have been at
various hospitals at the expense of
the county but since several of these
are instances where persons have been
transferred from one institution to
another, the total number Of persons
taken care of by the county is prob
ably under $50. Of this number, fifty
nine are at the Racine county asylum
for the chronic insane, the largest
creditor, and the remainder are scat

Commission Sitting in Germany Dis
cusses Plans for the Interna-
tional Air, Route.

Lubbock, Germany-Plans for new
international traffic route, which it's
promoters claim is destined to become
one of the worlds great highways, are
being worked out in detail by COM
mission sitting here composed of Dan
ish, German and Swedish experts.
The proposal is to establish fast

principal western European capitals
by constructing a railway bridge CON
Meeting the island of Fehmarn Tin the
Baltic Sea- with the German mainland,
enabling trains from Hamburg to run
to the extreme end of the island,
whence a ferry would transport them
bodily to the new Danish port of Rod
by on Laaland. From that point a
new direct railway would connect
with Copenhagen.
1t is claimed that the journey from
London or Paris to Stockholm would
thus be shortened by nine hours. The
cost of the project is variously esti-
mated at between five million and ten
million dollars.

CHTCAGO'S Big SUIT
GOES INTO DISCARD
(By Associated Press Leased Wire


Chicago Judge Fisher today sus-
tanned the demurrer of the Chicago
Tribune to the $10,OOO,OOO libel suit
brought by the city of Chicago. He de-
clared the city had no cause for action
and denied it the right to amend it's
petition. The city brought identical
suits against the Tribune and Daily
News, claiming the papers had printed
false statements regarding Chicago's
financial standing and thereby injured
the city's credit. Judge Fisher de-
clared the portions of the English COM
mon law and statutes which restricted
the liberty of the press had not. been
inherited by this country. "This ac-
tion," he said, "is not in harmony with
the genius, spirit and objects of our
institutions" The decision was of far
reaching Importance to newspapers, as
the suit was the first on record in
which municipality sought to restrict
the right to criticize its corporate acts.

PETITIONS GET
MANY SIGNERS
Report of Work for Com
missiOn-Manager Form
is Promising.
SIGNED BY HUNDREDS

The commission manager form of
government is taking long lead in
-Kenosha in the preliminary canvass to
secure petitions to be presented to the
Common Council according to the re-
ports made to the executive commit
tee in charge of the petitions at its
meeting on Friday evening. Decidedly
favorable reports are being received
from all of the men who have had
charge of the circulation of the petit
tions and it is now regarded as certain
that insufficient number of names will
be secured to demand the submission
of the question to a vote. One hun
dred and, thirty-six petitions have now
been put into circulation and the pc
titfons have attracted the signatures
of people in all walks Of life.
The petitions up to the present
time have been almost wholly in the
factory districts of the city and the
home to home circulation is to be
started within few days.
No Opposition Shown.
eve have not found any consider
able opposition to the proposed change
in the form of government of the
city," said one of the leaders in the
movement this morning. "The peo-
pie are interested and have a good
many questions to ask, in some cases,
but nearly always these people who
make the investigation sign the petit
tions. Only very few people have
declined to sign the petitions and it
is certain that a very large number
of the people of the city want a chance
to vote on the adoption of the pro-
posed new form of government. It is
impossible to say just when the petit
tions will be completed but we expect
that they will be presented to the
common council for action not later
than the first meeting in November.
This will give ample time for the
question to be submitted to the peo-
pie for referendum vote before the
holding of the elections in 1922. We
believe that very large interest will
be taken by the people in the refer
endum election. We do not anticipate
any opposition to the submission of
the question from the present city
council"
Don't Know How Many Names.
The committee has located what is
termed a "jok~-' in the law for the
submission of the question of the new
form of government as it is declared
that there is nothing to determine
just how many names are necessary
and the demand for the percentage
of the voting population fails to indi-
cate on just what this is to be COM
puted. An appeal to the city attorney
has failed to bring the information
sought. 1t is understood that more
than ten per cent of the number of
votes cast at the last general election
is meant but the promoters of the ref
erendum are taking no chances and
they will have at least ten per cent of
the population of the city before they
are through with the campaign for the
petitions.

CHECKS MAY
FIND ROBBl}ER
Police Get Checks Which
Were Stolen in Somers
Station Robbery.
CASHEI) IN KE:acsITA

With the arrest of Joseph Zahn by
Detectives Rock and Breidt on Friday
night the police department of the city
hope to be able to bring to light some
facts connected with two .burglaries
which took place at the, village of
Somers in the early part of September
when the station of the Chicago, Mil
waukee and St. Patl Railway COM
pany and a store nearby were en-
tered by burglars.
A part Of the loot secured by the
burglars was two checks issued by the
railway company and these checks
were found in the banks here on Fri
day after they had been returned by
the railway company with the state
ment that the endorsements on them
were forgeries< Zahn is alleged to
have been the companion of the man
who cashed the checks in Kenosha two
weeks ago, One of the checks was
cashed at the store of Charles Green
ing. 1t was for S4486 and it had been
drawn to the order of Lawrence
Buisse of Somers. It was declared
that the endorsement of the check in
the name of Buisse was forgery.
Other Check Was Larger.
The other check found by the police
was larger. It was for $5766 and it
had been issued by the railway COM
pany to August Schultz. 1t had been
cashed at the store of I. Tabachnik
on West Prairie avenue
Zahn after his arrest admitted that
he had been with the man who cashed
the checks but he declared that he did
not know who the man was. Gle was
a stranger" said Zahn, "and l met him
on the street. He had the two checks
and appeared to be in doubt as to how
to get the money on them and I told
him that he could cash them by en-
dorsing them"
Zahn said that he did not receive a
cent from the money realized in the
cashing of the checks and that he had
not seen the man since the day the
checks were cashed,

FORM NEW PLAN
FOR MILK PRICE
County Members of Milk
Association Interested
in Ruling.
ON BUTTER PRICE

Dairymen in Kenosha county, affil-
lated with Milk Producers Corpora
tive Marketing company, are much in
terested in a bulletin recently issued
by the new executive committee Of the
company. The principal feature is the
establishing of the price of milk by a
new plan. The bulletin, in part, says:
"Any new contract that is got out
must be based on butter price, plus
premiums for skim milk, location, ETC.,
and then any further price that can be
obtained, put into a pool to join the
profits that may come from operation
Of condensed plant or plants in Chi
cago, or may result from the sale of
material for the manufacture of ice
cream, ETC., and the money in this pool
after overhead expenses are paid be
distributed to the producers no matter
what their location may be.
Plan Central Plant
Arrangements are now under head
way and it is hoped will be brought to
successful completion some time in
October so that the Marketing company
will have a central plant in Chicago,
from which plant it is hoped to enter
the Chicago market for the actual sell
ing of wholesale milk to restaurants,
hotels and other large users Of milk
direct by the Marketing company itself.
furthermore, at the central plant it
is the intention to bottle milk, sell the
same to stores and distribute and sell
bottled milk direct to small dealers and
others whs desire to distribute bottled
milk to the actual consumer. This
central plant is the opening wedge in
the long cherished desire of many
members of the Marketing company to
begin to reach the final consumer in
more direct way and to obtain for
the producers a large share of the
consumers dollar"
The present management Of the
Marketing company is also arranging
with considerable number of lawyers
throughout the milk district to bring
suits for the enforcement of the pen
atty clause against those members who
have been dropping out of the Market
ing company. 1t is believed that this
penalty clause is -collectible and that
men who have dropped out of the Mar
keting company, especially in the dis
their money promptly, can be made
to, pay the penalty for violating the
contracts.
