While in, Washington, Mr. Glavis said he had a conference with Secretary Ballinger regarding the construc7 tloii of the act of May 28, 1908. Mr. t Ballinger agreed there should be ,an option and instructed Glavis and' field chief Schwartz to prepare a letter to . the attorney general. Before the letter was sent Glavis said he was told , by Assistant Secretary Pierce that the matter had been turned over to him (Pierce) and the attornew of the interior department to prepare an option. That option did not agree with Glavis's view. "I did not think," said Glavis, "that the law intended to validate a fraudule'nt claim." Glavis said he was directed to make his report in accordance with the Pierce opinion.

"I was disgusted with the whole thng," said Glavis, "and thought of ( resigning. Just then I met in Washington Mr.Jloyt, who had been United States attorney in Seattle and knew ""something about the matter. I told -'him I was going to resign and give all t the facts to the press. He said that I would cause an awful scandal in the Taft administration and ought to be prevented. He said he would see liorace Taft, the president's brother and have him take up the matter with the president. "That plan was abandoned, however, " and we decided to go to the attorney i general. Mr. Hoyt then hatf a cous ference with Mr. Wickersham and ho ' s' said he would talk with Mr. Ballinger ' about it."

Glavis said his rftr port had already been filed but Ballinger told him to withdraw it, which he did.

News has been received here of the finding of the frozen body of Zachariah Jacobson. a pioneer arncher and of late years a hermit in the mountains near his home in the Bitter Root valley. Jacobson, who was known to be wealthy, had been known to be missing for more than a week, and the entire region had been alarmed. The fact that he disappeared just before the severest blizzard of the winter made the search for him almost hopeless in the start, but it was continued faithfully until his corpse stiffened and half covered with snow was found in a clump of trees not more th an a mile from his home. It is supposed that he started out to round up his cattle, fearing that they would die of exposure in the mountains Instead of saving his herd he found the death from which he was trying to pave it. For forty years he had lived near Vic tor, h little town in the Bitter Root mountains, alone in a big white house that" was formerly the snow place of the valley. , He twned :?0O acres of valuable orchard land, worth probably $:0V". He never disclosed the names of his relatives beyond admitting that a son and daughter were residents of Minneapolis. He was born in Denmark, seventy years ago.

BEEF PROBE TO REACH THE FACTS

The Federal Grand Jury Strike Main Trail This Week. to AFTER THE "BIG" MEN REAL HEADS OF COMBINE ARE ONES WHOM GOVERNMENT SEEKS TO PUNISH FOR RAISING FOOD PRICES. (American News Service) Chicago, Jan. 20. When the federal grand jury meets Monday morning it will proceed upon the main track of the beef combine inquiry with all routine matters disposed of. Within three weeks indictments are expected involving at least four of the heads of the packing companies allied with the National Packing company. Developments today made the announcement authoritative that the government in the present inquiry will pass over everyone except the real heads of the alleged combine in the effort to indict th persons responsible for the alleged combine. , Many Employes Summoned. Every employe that is thought to possess information of value to the inquisitors will be subpoenaed. But the head1; of the combination the beneficiaries of the. beef trust's owners will not be given anything resembling an immunity bath this time. The investigators have discovered that their work has been made all the more difficult by an elaborate system of concernment in effect In the offices of the packing companies. Of late years, since the agitation against high prices a:id the beef trust it is declared as much effort has been put forward in suppressing evidence of a combine as has been expended in perfecting the combination. Crews First Witness. This elaborate system has made the ramifications of the beef trust all the more difficult to follow and the inquiry is proceeding slowly, but with the certainty that is the result of the previous experiences with the combination. Monday it is expected that Ralph Crews, general counsel for the National Packing Company, will be the first witness. He testified yesterday afternoon, but he did not have the papers that the grand jury wanted to scrutinize. UNION CITY DOWNED Local High School Won Basket Ball Contest Last Night. ALLISON WAS THE STAR In a very fast and exciting game the Richmond Hgh School basket ball team last night defeated the strong Union City team at the "Y" gym. The local boys played a fast, clean game and won because of their superior team work. Every man on the local team was responsible for the victory. Criticism might be made on the work of the Union City team as there was too much individual play. During the first period Murray was the only man that showed any class, making 8 points, one field and 0 foul goals. For the locals, Allison was everywhere, making 4 fields and 4 fouls, while Ferling and Hasemeier each contributed one field. During the second half Murray made three fields and one foul goal, while Washier at center contributed three fields. For Richmond Taggart came in with his share making four pretty baskets from the field, and Allison made two difficult shots. Hasemeier and Steinkamp also helped the cause by throwing one each. The line up and summary: Richmond (:?2.) Union City (2:U Taggart .Ortlip Left Forward. Allison Murray Right Forward. Hasemeier Washier Center. Ferling Gettinger Left Guard.

Lebo attended a meeting of the state board of directors yesterday in Indianapolis. In the contest for new members Post C is showing up well with the balance of the posts scattered of the United States. E. E. Lebo, who Is the only contestant from Post C for membership honors, has the honor of being the leader in the Indiana division in having the greatest number of new members to his credit. Elmer expects to carry off the capital prize. L. E. Tiirner is confined to his homo on account of sickness. Samuel Gaar is ag;in able to be out by the uc of crutches. His ankle still gives him considerable trouble and it will be tome time before he is again in first c.'ass condition. Have ycu read the T. V. A. Magazine of last month V Iook it over. Kvery T. I. A. member will find something of interest to him in the publication. About time for another letter of vindication from the "Innocent Seven." These letters, juding from the past, would eventually become masterpieces in literature and would lead one to believe that another ''gentleman from Indiana" had taken up his pen to add his mite to the already great fame of Indiana's writers. Too bad he must share the glory with a few Missourians. But then there's glory enough for all. The Journal-News of Evansville, in which paper appears Bro. J. B. Young's T. P. A. column, suffered a complete loss by fire Jan. 2i. The paper, which is one of the best in the state, will be published temporarily by the Press, a morning paper. We trust this misfortune will in no way effect th interesting notes of Mr. Young from appearing regularly. The Pennsylvania railroad company just as fast as possible, is equipping their through passenger trains with steel coaches. The company has also made a ruling that only steel coaches are to be permitted to run through the New York tunnel recently opened. A great number of these steel coaches is daily seen running through Richmond. AllT. P. A. boys should prepare themselves and be ready to attend in full glory, the approaching wedding of one of our distinguished fellow members. The euchre set promises to attend in a body and bid farewell to one of tehir chosen few. The wedding will positively take place in February. D. E. Haxton has moved his family to Richmond from Economy and will make this city his future home. Mr. Haxton is with the I. R. Howard & Co., wholesale grocery, in the capacity of traveling salesman. Walter Rossiter reports trade in the linen goods exceedingly fine this year so far. The regular monthly meeting of the post occurred last night and many important matters were disposed of. A committee of five, consisting of P. J. Freeman. M. J. O'Brien. M. L. Hasty, W. H. Quigg and T. C. Harrington, was appointed to draft resolutions to present to the Ft. Wayne convention relative to what action should be taken in regard to the conduct of the national officers. Two nominating committees were appointed, one to nominate the blue ticket, the other the white ticket for officers and delegates to the national convention. The nominating committee of the blue ticket consists of J. H. Hill. J. J. Hoerner and G. A. Mendenhall. The white commttee consists of Roy Brown, Gath Freeman and Ben Hill. State President Lebo reports the state treasury to be in the best condition ever known to the state organization. This speaks well for Lebo and Indiana. THREE GRAVEL ROADS Petition for Them to Be Presented to County Board Next Week. OPPOSITION IS PROMISED j THREE GRAVEL ROADS j The board of Wayne county com- ; missioners will meet one week from tomorrow and it is understood that at least two and possibly three petitions j for gravel roads will be filed, i One oi them will come from Abington township, it is asserted, and it i will be followed by a remonstrance I from citizens who are opposed to the ; improvement because of the belief that j the tax rate will be greatly increased. ' The fact that Washington township is bearing the burden of a 17-cents tax increase on account of a single gravel road has not made the road law particularly popular, especially in the smaller townships. The opinion prevails however, that there will be no opposition to the improvement of the National road west of the city, the petition for which will he amoas those presented to the commissioners next week. That the Improvement Is badly needed all admit, and the cost will not be such that the tax rate in the township will be increased more than one or two cents on the $100 valuation.

Nine- j ty-six now are taking the domestic sci-; once short course. They are divided : into three groups of thirty-two each j and these are divid d again into eight ; grops of four, each group consisting : of a cook, assistant cook, dishwasher ; and waitress.

The .-! coming from the table goes to the cook, while the remaining dollar pays for table laundry, ice .etc. This allows two table cloths, eight napkins, two center pieces for the table, and two tray doilies. The table decorations come out of the $4. The competition between the eight, kitchens seem to be to see who can serve the best and daintist meals within the $4 limit.

It is said j that less than o percent of the lands' demonstrated by the Canadian government experimental farms to be arable' has been taken up by settlers.

People are flocking into the country and a railroad now is a necessity. giving continuous transportation to the Arctic ocean. Work Begun Two Years Ago. "One soon will be able," said Mr. Clarke, "to board a train at Galveston and go whizzing over the great North American continent and never set foot, on ground from the time he starts till the time he lands upon the shore of the Arctic ocean." The work was begun nearly two years ago. Mr. Clarke saw the opportunity and got busy. A company was organized and incorporated as the Al berta and Great Waterways railway company, with W. R. Clarke as president. Then he went to England and France and secured subscriptions for f 14, 000, ('00 from old friends and clients of his father, the late William B. Clarke. With so much done on paper a construction company was organized, known as the Canada West Construction company, limited. This is the organization which is now getting down to the task of building the road, constructing packet lines for river service, and platting and building fortyseven towns and cities. The road is to be built for the heaviest freighting and immigrant service. ARCTIC COLLECTION Of Paintings by Famous Dane Artists to the United States. PEARY CLUB WANTS THEM (By Herbert Temple) London, Jan. .'O. In the map room of the Royal Geographical society thera is at present an exhibition of nearly one hundred paintings by the two Danish painters. Aage Bertelsen and Achton Friis, who took part in the Mylius Eriksen expedition, whose leader lost his life in the northern icefields. The Peary club of New York is negotiating for the transfer of this exhibition to America, and it is to be hoped that it wil lsucceed for not only are the paintings of great artistic value but they also show many views of particular interest to Americans, such as many of the points visited by Perry, and that explorer's varde at Clarence Wyckoff in Peary's Land, S3 degrees N. L. Most of these works of art have been painted under the most trying conditions, with the thermometer many degrees below zero, when every bit of paint had to be heated over the flame of a candle to be soft enough to be applied with a brush. More than any pictures ever seen here, the yshow thwonderful beauties of the arctic zones, which are by no means as monotonous and dreary as one ordinarily imagines.
