Only One Representative Makes an Effort to Jeer It on Its Passage.
SAYS THERE'S SO USE TO KICK
Contains the Prizes for Those Who Have Been Good, He Says.
Indianapolis, June 27.-The prosecuof the dealers in bad meat ordered by Judge Fremont Alford, of the crimcourt, has been begun by County Prosecutor Benedict, and affidavits of information against five of the twentydealers, who are said by State Chemist Barnard and Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the state board of health, to be guilty of gross violations of the pure food laws laws, have been filed in the criminal court.
Defendants Names Withheld. The violators are each liable, on conviction, to terms of imprisonment in the county jail not to exceed six months. The five men against whom affidavits were filed, and whose names were withheld by the prosecutor for the reason that they have not yet been arrested, are charged on three counts with violations of the statute under which the affidavits were made. The
affidavits to be filed against other dealers next week will be similarly
drawn.
Will Have a Run for Their .Money. If the accused dealers are found
guilty under each count they may be imprisoned for a term not longer than six monhts and fined not to exceed $700 or they may be fined and not imProsecutor Benedict would
not say that he believed the dealers would be convicted on each of the
three counts, but said, that the ac
cused men would get "a run for their
money."
That Visit to Kingan's. Of his visit to Kingan's packing
plant Dr. Hurty said: "So far as we went and saw conditions are all right.
We found nothing there but what is
necessarily found in any slaughter
house, and there are many improve
ments that have been made in the last few months that put the plant in good
shape. Some months ago Mr. Barnard,
chemist of the board, made a thorough
inspection of the entire plant, and
made suggestions as to changes and
improvements. These suggestions have all been followed, and have produced
good results." WHOLE FAMILY DOING TIME Husband, Wife and Three Sons Sent to the Penitentiary for Murder.
Evansville, Ind., June 27.-An entire
family, consisting of Jonah Williams, his wife and three sons, are now servtime for the murder of James Leigh
at Boonville, Ind., last January. Wil
liams received a life sentence Monday.
His wife was sent to the penitentiary for ninety-nine years last Saturday.
One of the sons received a like sen
tence at the same time and the other
two sons were sent to a reformatory
shortly after Williams' trial began on
the charge of being an accomplice of
his wife in the killing of Leigh.

Senate and House in Brief. Washington, June 27.-After two or three more speeches on the conferreport on the railroad rate bill the senate sent the bill back to conagain. The naval appropriabill was finally passed. There was a long debate on the pipe line and anti-pass provisions of the rate bill. A conference committee was appointed on the immigration bill, and an execusession was held. The house passed the "omnibus" public building bill, tarrying $21,000,and then took up the last supply bill-the general deficiency-which was pending at adjournment. A night session was held, devoted to campaign thunder manufacture.
The H
ammond
Distilling Co.
Washington. June 27.-The "pork barrel," as the so-called omnibus pub-
lic building bill is generally called, was rolled into the house by Dalzell, who reported a broad and comprehenrule for its consideration. The rule provided that while the consideraof the bill should be the same as under suspension of the rules its pas
sage shall rest on a vote of the ma
jority, instead by a two-thirds vote.
To be consistent Williams, the leader of the minority, called for a division, and by the overwhelming vote of 193
to 21 the previous question was or
dered. The rule was then adopted and debate was begun. The bill carries
$21,000,000.
Fitzgerald Is Semi-Serious. Fitzgerald of New York, in a semi-
serious way, but with considerable feel
ing, said that it was futile to delay or defeat the passage of the bill. He likened the house to a school just
closing, and following the universal practice throughout the country at commencement time "This great school is about to distribute its premiums," he said. "This bill," he added, "illus
trates as well as anything I have ever seen the truth of the statement of the cohesive power of public plunder."
Dead Sure to Go Through. Then in a satirical way the gentle
man from New York said that mem
bers on examining the omnibus pub
lic building bill could ascertain wheththeir conduct during their school
term had been such as to have gained
the approbation of the authorities, "the
professors," and to know whether they
were among the bad boys of the house. "I know, Mr. Speaker, that there is
no power in heaven or on earth that will stop the passage of this bill," re-Fitzgerald-which statement was greeted with applause. "The unanimity, not to say the enthusiasm, with which this bill has been brought into the house and is being urged to its passage is the best evidence that the committee has at least, in the disof the money, been able to please a great majority of the house." Prolonged applause. "Fitz" Was a True Prophet. The bill was then put upon its pasand amid loud applause the speaker, an hour from the time the rule was reported, announced that the seal of the house had been put upon the measure and it was started on its way to the other side of the Capitol.
Union That Doesn't Unite.
Petersburg, Ind., June 27.-A meet
ing was held at the Cumberland Pres
byterian church here to effect a union
of the local Presbyterian and Cumber
land Presbyterian churches. After many speeches were made on both
sides the meeting broke up in disorand much bad feeling was maniMany of the Cumberland Pressay they will not abide by the decision of the general assembly held recently at Decatur, Ill., and that they will hold the church property and appeal to the courts.
Half Holiday on Saturday. Washington, June 27.-Saturday half holidays during the months of July, August and September have been granted by President Roosevelt to skilled mechanics and laborers, and to
all employes in the classified service at navy yards and naval stations of
the United States, and to the govrn--
ment printing office employes. It is stipulated that when an employe works more than four hours on Saturday during the half holiday priod he is to be paid a bonus of 50 per cent, of his regular wages, and no more.
LaFollette Couldn't Get Action. Washington, June 27.-LaFollette made a determined effort in the sento secure consideration of the bill limiting to sixteen hours the time durwhich railroad employes connectwith the operations of trains may be kept on duty. He got it up after some trouble, but it had not been passed at adjournment.
Demand of the J. O. U. A. M. Washington, June 27.-Foraker read a telegram in the senate from the Junior O. U. A. M., demanding that he exert himself to "see that the immilegislation is shaped in accordwith the principles of this order." He said he had received hunof messages of similar purport.
Time in Transit for Stock. Washington, June 27.-The house has passed the senate bill which re
peals the so-called twenty-eight-hour law by fixing the maximum of time in transit for stock at thirty-six hours, upon the written request of the owner
or person in charge of the particular shipment.

Much Leasing of Oil Lands. Petersburg, Ind., June 27.-The Vin
cennes Home Oil and Gas company and the Pittsburg Oil company-sup-posed to belong to the Standardare leasing large tracts between this place and the state line, in the direction of Robinson, Ill. Oil has been flowing, with salt water, from many
abandoned gas wells in this county.
No Adjournment Until Congress Has Completed Its Job. Washington, June 27.-Congress will stay in session until its work is finThis is the dictum of Speaker Cannon and his lieutenants, and is beemphasized at this time to counterany impression that the pure food bill, at least, might go over until the next session. There is also trouble on the meat inspection bill and the "tie up" on the railroad rate bill indicates delay. The immigration bill is also in conference, as are several of the appro
priation bills. All of these things must
be worked out without any date of ad
journment being set, according to the
decision of the house leaders.
The meat inspection amendment to the agricultural bill probably will be
returned to the senate and house in disagreement. The conferrees twice
had it under discussion and the indica
tions are that the differences in regard to the payment for inspection by the packers or by the government, or
whether the date of inspection must be
placed on cans of meat, are irreconcila
ble. A complete agreement was reached
on all other matters in the bill.

who had safely guided the country through the intricacies of the Philip

strength of character he has shown
n dealing with the other problems." "And when he is in the White
House," said Justice Brewer, amid great applause. "I hope, and I know he
will put into his administration those
same high principles taught by Yale
which he is already showing in his public life."
