PRESIDENT DOES NOT WANT IT THOUGHT THAT HIS CAMPAIGN AGAINST "SUCCESSFUL DISHONESTY" HAS CEASED. Washington, January ".AttorneyGeneral Bonaparte is disposed to renew, with the beginning of the year 1908, the anti-corporation crusade in which his department was engaged prior to the money famine. He will start a new suit soon, and will announce in a formal statement his plans in that connection with reference to the Union Pacific. His suit against the railroad will res'.-mble in many particulars the suit that Attorney-Gen eral Knox instituted and carried to a conclusion against the Northern Securities company. It will not, however, be against E. II. Iiarriman personally. It is understood that the exact grounds for the suit have not been determined, chiefly because one of the special counsel already appointed to represent the government is in Europe. The petition will be tiled in Omaha or Kansas City, asking for .a dissolution of the combination existing between the Union Pacific and the Southern Pacific. The difficulties that would attend an

HIRES DIVOeCED WIFE AS DOMESTIC Servant Problem Solved by New Yorker. Albany, N. Y., Jan, .".Henry Jewtraw of Lake Placid nas solved the domestic problem in simple fashion. He divorced his wife and then engage.! aer as housekeeper. To help him obtain the divorce Mrs. Jewtraw looked after his house and the children while he attended court at Eiizabethtown. Returning with his decree Jewtraw was so pleased with the condition of the house and the children that he proposed that she remain as his housekeeper, offerin gher as good wages as she could obtain elsewhere. Thus the problem was solved and the children are the happiest of the lot.

An interstate contest was held in connection with the annual convention at Cincinnati, for which fourteen orations were submitted. Some students were led to write on peace subjects for the regular intercollegiate oratorical contests. Altogether these contests led more than liv fturients to read and write on some pnase of international peace and arbitration; and the influence of their productions was extended to the audiences and judges who read and heard the orations.

KUHIM SPOKE AT LINTON. MANY MEN PROMINENT IN DEMOCRATIC AFFAIRS WAS AT THE LOVE FEAST RISK SHOWS UP STRONG FOR STATE CHAIRMAN. Indianapolis. Jan. .'. The Taggart political fortifications were shattered iu the conventions lu!d yesterday to elect new district chairmen, but it is believed here today that ho will be able to elect Stokes Jackson, of Greenfield, state cha'rman by a very narrow margin. The antl-Taggart forces, however, seym confident of being able to down him, and no one can say for certain who -will win until after the committee meets here next Wednesday. The following district chairmen were elected: First T. D. Scales, Hoonvillo. Second Alvin Padgett, Washington. Third Mark Storen, Xew Albany. Fourth George Pleasants, Vevay.

Risk, I a layette. Eleventh A. G. Emshwiller, Harti'ord City. Twelfth E. G. Hoffman. Ft. Wayne. Thirteenth S. X. Stevens, Plymouth. The surprising features were the i lection of Scales over Arch Stephen- . on, Kockport. and Charles Greathouse. Mt. Vernon, in the First, and Fmshwiller's success in the Eleventh. The result in the First is looked upon iu-re tonight as favorable to Taggart, as the Evansville democratic organization, led by Jack Nolan and followers K-f Mayor P.ohne, were defeated in 'heir efforts to elect Stephenson. A'ajor Menzfes led the fight there against the Evansville contingent and von in a bitter finish. Scales said tonight that he is not pledged to any ne for state chairman, but it is thought that he will favor Jackson. In the Eleventh Emshwiller was elected because be pledged himself to vote against Taggart's plans. In the second district convention at Linton, Gilbert Hendren, Bloomfield, was indorsed for state chairman, but Padgett was not Instructed to vote for him.

GREAT RENT WAR

GROWS MORE ACUTE Many New York Crusaders Absolutely Refuse to Pay Landlords. STIRRING STREET SCENES. AUTHORITIES IN NEW YORK BELIEVE THAT TROUBLE IS JUST COMING AND THAT THERE WILL BE ROUSING SCENES. New York. Jan. 3 As a result ot the war ou the east side over ninety dispossess notices were served by landlords today on tenants who haw organized to secure a reduction of their rent. Most of thetso notices wer obtained in the Thirteenth district court on Madison street, which wa crowded all day with representatives of landlords and tenants. Attaches ot the court are looking for a harder day tomorrow, as they believe the trouble but just beginning. Today was the day for the rent collectors to come around. They fount) hundreds of tenants who for the first time absolutely refused to pay tho rent demanded of them. In many cases every tenant who refused to pay seemed fully prepared for dispossess notices. A case in point was furnished at 141 Ludlow street. Fourteen families live there, and not a family would pay rent. Serve Notice on Tenants. Some landlords were prepared for this and hustled to the courts for notices to serve on tenants. Up to 8 o'clock eighty-four such notices had been brought to strike headquarters at 31'$ Grand street, and more were coming in every minute. These eighty-four notices had been obtained by thirtyfour landlords of houses in which tenants had organized and resolved to stand together in asking for a reduction in rent. There were comparatively few evictions. These will come In a few days if the landlords stand Arm. Most of the tenants have been advised to notify headquarters as soon as they got notices, and lawyers are ready to ask for an extension of time. Most of the cases were put down for Jan. C. A few tenants did not know enough to do this, and had their things put in the street. C, C. & L. ticket acec; -sin sell ye sleeping car tickets to Calcago for their 11:15 P. M. train.
