Paris.—The chamber of deputies
after a stormy session of four hour-i
Tuesday adjourned the debate on the
interpellations on the postal situation
until May 13. The response of tha
postal employes was quick and deci-
sive. Wi.hin half ail hour the feder-
al committee lu'd issued an order for
a general strike and the railway mail
clerks walked out in a body.
An hour later a meeting of 6,000 j
poslal employes at the Hipprodroms '
took up the battle and unanimously I
voted to strike.
"The government is playing for
time; we must not be caught napping," j
was the spirit of the meeting as ex-
pressed by Paurou, a dismissed post-
man, and one of the most active or-
ganizers of the movement.
During the debate in the chamber

fended the position of the strikers
The government was charged with
failure to keep its promises at the
conclusion of the previous strike, es-
pecially with regard to the retirement
of M. Simyan. undersecretary of posts
and telegraphs
M. Harthou, minister of public
works, the government's only spokes-
man, insisted that neither he nor Pre-
mier Clemenceau had promised Secre-
tary Simyans dismissal.
Toward the close of the meeting
of the federal committee the speak-
ers became more excited in their de-
nunciation of the government. A car-
icature of M. Clemenceau was carried
into the hall amid hoots and jeers and
the premier was denounced in violent
terms.
MATRON NABS BAD NEGRO.
Alleged Murderer Arrested by Tulsa
Woman.
Tulsa, Okla.—As he stepped from
an incoming Midland Valley train
Tuesday, Thomas Hill, alias Parson,
was arrested by Police Matron Mrs.
W. It. Sschoonover, who marched him
straightway to the city Jail and de
livered him to the proper authorities.
Hill made no resistance to the arrest
and accepted the inevitable with good
g race.
The negro is charged with having
killed a man at a rock crusher north
of Tulsa by striking him on the head
with a rock. He has been at liberty
for several weeks. Mrs. Schoonover
had seen the negro before and was ac-
quainted with the charge. Her mis-
sion at the depot was of another char-
acter, but when the negro alighted she
nabbed him. He looked puzzled for a
moment and acted as though he were
looking for an opportunity to get away
but the nerve of the woman officer
stood out boldly, and he became as
meek as a. lamb.
Prohi Bill Back to Senate.
Jefferson City, Mo.—Without debate
and by a viva voce vote, the house
Tuesday refused to concur in the sen-
ate amendments to the statewide pro-
hibition resolution and sent it back to
the upper house, asking that body to
recede. As the senate probably will
decline to give up its changes in the
measure, a conference committee will
be appointed.
Tulsa, Okla.—Governor Haskell and
the six other Oklahomans will, it is
stated, move that the federal grand
jury, called to re-investigate the Mus-
kogee town lot cases, be dismissed.
The ground set up for dismissal will
be that in the enabling act whereby
the Indian Territory and Oklahoma
were permitted to become a state,
there is no method prescribed by con-
gress for investigating cases committ-
ed in the territories rior to statehood,
and that the federal court has no jur-
isdiction over such cases.
The prosecution has 100 witnesses
to examine and the district attorney
is quoted as saying the investigation
would last two weeks and possibly
a month.
After eleTen men had qualified as
grand jurors to sit in the second Mus-
kogee town lot investigation, Monday.
Judge John A. Marshall adjourned
court until Tuesday. An additional
venire of eight is to be selected in the
meantime from which the remaining
live men are to be chosen.
Governor C. N. Haskell issued a
statement Monday respecting his con-
nection with the so-called Mott civil
land suits and the action of Federal
Judge Campbell, who at Muskogee on
Saturdy last, overruled a motion of
the defendant.
The decision, the governor says, was
in the cases rought by the govern-
ment to recover additional moneys for
other Creek towns.
"Judge Campbell's decision," says
Governor Haskell, "merely overrules
the defendants demurrer to the gov-
ernment's petition which was princi-
pally a question of the jurisdiction of
the court to hear these suits at the
instance of the interior department,
and after overruling the demurrer, the
court gave the defendants permission
to answer, putting the facts alleged in
the government's petition on issue for
future trial. In the civil cases the
government alleges that there was a
conspiracy between the owners and
schedules of the lots and that the
Creek nation and the government offi-
cials had no knowledge of the plans
of scheduling. The investigation of
the criminal cases discloses the fact
that the United States officials not
only had knowledge but approved the
plan, and the decision has no bearing
on the criminal prosecutions.
"The suits included other Creek
nation tiivns as well as Muskogee.
Three thousand acres of Muskogee
townsite could not be involed because
the government townsite only contain-
ed 2,540 acres, total area of which fully
four-fifths had been scheduled to the
owners of improvements thereon and
the government does not question such
scheduling. Less than one-fifth of the
town plot was pasture lots and culti-
vated fields, without improvements,
and it is a part of this one-fifth only
that the government now questions."

State Will Appeal From Decision of
Federal Court.
Kansas City.— "There has been so
much talk about the decree of this
court in the Missouri railroad rate
case that it seems strange to me that
an appeal has not been taken from
that decree. Do you intend to ap-
peal?"
"Yes, sir. A transcript is now be-
ing prepared for an appeal to the su-
preme court of the United States."
Judge Smith McPherson, presiding
asked the foregoing question, and At-
torney General Major, of Missouri,
testifying, gave the answer Wednes-
day afternoon at the hearing in the
federal court to decide whether or not
the temporary restraining order of the
federal court, enjoining the state from
Interfering in the rate cases, was to
be made permanent. Judge McPher-
son had recalled Attorney General
J Major to the stand to ask the ques-
I tlon.
J The attorney general was the cen-
tral figure around whom the proceed-
j ings took form today. He was sub-
jected to a crossfire examination by
i the railroad attorneys, with an oc-
| casional question from the court, be-
cause of his action at Jefferson City
yesterday in filing quo warranto pro-
ceedings against the railroads of the
state. At times the din was so great
that the court stenogripher, regard-
less of the dignity of her surround-
ings, would scream "One at a time."
But through it all Attorney General
Major preserved liis equanimity and
maintained that he believed the rail-
roads of the state had combined and
conspired to fix freight and passen-
ger rates :.nd that he regarded that a
violation of the law. He was not
concerned, he said, about what rates
were agreed upon.
Governor Hadley, at Jefferson City,
declared (hat the telegram sent by
Frank Hagerman of Kansas City to
the attorney general of the United
States regarding the passenger rate
controversy in Missouri, was inac-
curate.
"When Hagerman states that 'ev-
ery preliminary injunction relative to
freight rates was made with the
state's consent, he is as far from the
truth as he claims that Congressman
Murphy's resolution is," said the gov-
ernor.
"I have no desire to mix up in this
controversy, but if misstatements are
j persisted in I will submit a full state-
ment of the facts to the attorney gen-
eral and the president of the United
.States."
SENATOR BRISTOW LEADING INSURANTS
Kansan Attacks Proposed Tariff Rates
For Benefit of Smelter Combine—
Senator Cummins Will Offer
Ah Amendment.
Washington,—Senator Aldrich stav-
ed off the test of strength on the
pig lead schedule by refusing Sat-
urday afternoon to consent to a vote
on that schedule. This development
came after a day of hard fighting, in
which Senatav Bristow of Kansas led
the attack of the proposed exorbitant
rate for the benefit of the alleged
smelter trust.
In the debate Senator Bristow forc-
ed Senator Aldrich to admit that the
finance committee had not gone ex-
tensively into the lead schedules, but
had accepted the statements of tho
experts of the smelting interests.
lie defended this course upon the
theory that the consuming public is
entitled to no consideration, but that
it shves in the benefits resulting frj:n
tariff legislation.
The duty he proposes to impose up-
on pig lead is Vfac a pound. This is
five-eighths of a cent above the duty
on lead ore, while the testimony of ail
the experts is that the cost of ex-
tracting the pig lead from the ore is
but three-eighths of a cent.
Senator Cummins has prepared and
will ofTer an amendment to give the
lead trust protection to the full cost
of its manufacturing process, which
Is three-eighths of a cent higher than
the duty on lead ore, and this, it is
believed, will receive the full strength
of the independent vote.
The matter is important because it
illustrates the attitude assumed by
the "progressives." They are willing
to allow adequate protection to ali
American industries, even if some of
those industries are trust-controlled,
but they oppose the rates fixed by
Senator Aldrich. which far exceed
the protective point.|
The progressive republicans believe
that they can overthrow the proposed
pig lead rate. The hard, stubborn
fight that they are making gives indi-
cation that unless Senator Aldrich
yields on the principal schedules af-
fecting t!is necessities of life, he will
have a fight oil his hands that may
hold Congress on tte tariff job until
well into August.

Carrying Protection Too Far.
An inhuman suggestion was made
by a correspondent the other day
that we should protect English art-
ists by putting a duty on old masters
of foreign schools. It is not the
average English artist of to-day who
wants protection; the man wiic
should be protected is the poor unfor-
tunate creature who has to look at
the artist's pictures.—London Satuf

OFFICIALS ARE INVOLVED
Former Servants of Government in
Sugar Scandal.
New Y'ork.—Former officials of the
treasury at Washington will be in-
volved in the criminal p-osecutions
instituted against Oliver Spitzer and
six others who were associated with
him as weighers in the employ of the
Havemeyers and Elder refinery, ac-
cording to the present indications.
The seven men were indicted Friday
on the charge of swindling the United
States out of millions of dollars in
duties on sugar, Imported by the su-
gar trust.
The government claimed $9,000,000
and the trust compromised by the pay-
ment of more than $2,000,000 in fines,
in the hope that such payment would
settle the matter. The indictments
returned on Friday were in effect a
notice to the trust that criminal pros-
ecutions would be pressed regardless
of the civil suits.
Waters-Pierce to Sell Lots.
Austin, Tex.—District Judge C. E.

mitting Robert J. Eckhardt, receiver
of. The company has already par-
sell certain lots situated in El Paso,
hitherto used by the company as the
place of Soncentratlng its oil for local
distribution. The lots are in the fir.'
limits and therefore must be disposed
of. Thee company has already pur-
chased other property in El Paso for
such purposes. This is the first order
of its kind since the state's receiver-
ship went into effect. It will probably
be some time before the court issues
an order to sell out the property.

PORTO RICO IS UNGRATEFUL.
President Taft Thinks Freedom Grant-
ed Too Quickly.
Washington,—President Taft Mon-
day sent to congress a special mes-
sage recommeding legislation at the
present extra session, amending the
Foraker act, under which Porto Rico
is governed. The president directs the
attention of congress to affairs on the
island, laying particular stress on
what he terms "a situation of unusu-
al gravity," developed through the
failure of the legislative assembly of
Porto Rico to pass the usual appropri-
ation bills, leaving the island without
support after June 30, next.
Porto Rlcans have forgotten the
generosity of the United States, the
presindent says, in the desire of cer-
tain of the island's political leaders
for power, and he adds that the pres-
ent situation indicates that the Unit-
ed States has gone too fast in the
extension of political power to the
Porto Ricans. He concludes that the
absolute power of apropriation should
be taken away from "those who have
shown themselves too irresponsible to
enjoy it."
Japanese Laundry Work

apart for every washing, and they iron
their clothes by spreading them on a

anese woman does her washing out of
doors. Her wash tub is not more than
