Governor Ferguson to Take
Strenuous Action.
The board of visitation for the In-
sane asylum today mads its quarterly
roport. to Governor Ferguson. In the
report are brought out several points
worthy of careful conalderatlon. Gov-
ernor Forguyon said to tho Loader re-
porter that there are too many pati-
ents dumped Into the asylum and kept
at the territory's expense that are not
Insane at all. Many of thoso nre
cocaine fiends and Inebriates. He will
make a special effort hereafter to see
that this Bort of business Is checked
and that only persons really Insane
are admitted to the caro of tho esy'ura.
In tho roport made to Governor For-
guson to-lay the board cites one caso
in which the law Is ajbusod. The board
8ugr8is that the governor investigate
this matter at once. If this Is not
stopped the asylum will soon be
CDwded with persons who should bo
taken oaro of by the various counties
instead of the territory. Acting upon
the report Governor Ferguson will give
stringent Instructions to tho varloiis
county officials to attend more cloaoly
to this matter and seo that only those
who are lu tho aenso of the law tho
territory's patients are sent to tho
nsylum. One paragraph In the board's
roport roods:
"Wo would liko to call your attention
to a patient Ernest Edwards who ar-
rlvod from Pbttawatomle county to-
day Only a few hours ago he was
dumped from tho Creek country tntq
Pottawatomie county. There he was
immediately committed and railroaded;
to the asylum where ho arrived a fow
hours aftor crossing tho line Into Pot-
tawatomie county. ThlB Is but another
flagrant abuse of the power of law that
gravitates towards the least resist-
ance Ycu will notice by the Increaso
in the number of Inmates that unless
some action Is taken to stop this rank
abuse of power In the various counties
tlw alum will soon again be taxed
bejond Its capacity by Inmates who do
not legally belong Uiere. and that In-
asmuch as he Is a cltlzoa of lLo Indian
territory. Crook nation wo recommend
that the said Ernest Edwards bo dis-
missed and that Oklahoma territory
be not hold rosponalblo for tho oxpenbo
of taking care of said Edwards."
The roport soys' furthor:
"Thero aro now In the Institution
457 Inmates of which 287 aro whlto
males. 132 whlto females 18 colored
males and 20 colored females.
"During tho past throo months 30
inmates have been discharged 20 have
been parollod 3 have escaped and 7
have died. They have received during
the past threre months 87 putlents.
Thero is only one private patient iu
tbe asylum.
"The sanitary conditions are at pres-
ent good. The quality and quantity of
food and water are sufficient for their
needs.
'The health of the inmates Is ex-
traordinary at the present time.
"Our former instructions relative to
the dismissal of inmates have been
complied with as far aj possible.
'Regarding the character of the em-
ployes and the abuse of Inmates In the
bylum we have investigated many
rumors of a questionable nature but
failed to find any tangible evidence to
substantiate them."
BOWEN HANDS A FEW
Disgraced Diplomatist Takes
a Shot at Adminis-
tration Pet.
(By Associated Press.)
New York June . Herbert V.
Bowen formerly minister to Ven-
-esuele has made public a long state
ment in reply o President Roosevelt's
letter dismissing him from the diplo
matic service as a result of the inves-
tigation made by Secretary Taft into
the controversy between Mr. Bowen
Land Fraavete B. Loomls first assistant
' secretary of state. '
ftfr. Bowen deoleroa that the "Ven-
(fuetefv scandal ecnrtMute a national
l-disgraee."
Ife
asserts'
that "the
Loomls soamttl" pervaded Caracas
and oonetantly "grew worn and
worse." Mr. Bowen says that shortly
after ha catted the matter to the at-
tention of the department of state he
received a oabte offer from Washing-
ton of diplomatic promotion that would
remove him from Caracas. "I admit"
he declared "that I .regard the offer
as an attempt to bribe me veiled un-
der the offer of a higher position and
Inspired by Mr. Loomls. I make no
doubt that In tile course of the recent
inquiry It has been suRloteatly plain
that I did not think Mr. Loomls ati
hbaoat man and that I did not believe
his conduct as minister to VnauoI
had ben honorable."
Mr. Bowen says that the recent de-
partmental Inquiry should not prevent
"an open. Impartial fearless and thor-
ough Investigation Into all the facts."
"Suppression of truth will never
Establish It" he adds. "Tolerance of
evil will never crush It No officer
however liith should shelter a wrong-
doer." When he went tc Venezuela as sue
censor to Mr. Loomls Mr Bowen dV
olares he found rumors wriously a'-
feeling thfr honor and Integrity of hio
predecessor both as a man and as rep-
resentative of the Halted States gov-
ernment. Mr Bowon says that feel-
tag a sense of pride in representing
the United States these rumors were
a source of continual mortification to
him. Epitomising the miinors Mr.
Bowon says:
"Mr. Loomls while minUter was re-
ported to have used his public position
to nil his private purse by obtaining
interests in concessions and in various
claims against the Venezuelan govern-
ment. He was commonly thought also
to have been in the pay of the Ber-
mutlec Asphalt company and to have
made ute of his own official position
to give color to the belief that tho Uni-
ted States government was especially
favorable to the side of that company
in its controversy with tho Venezuelan
authorittos. I had no means of rotut-
ing these scandalou-i statemonts. Their
substantial truth was assumed by ray
diplomatic colloaguos as woll as by
tho general public at Caracas."
WILL SJUDY WAVE ACTION
Board of Naval Officers are
Studying Plan to Protect
Lake Harbors.
(By Associated Press.)
Detroit Mich. June 32.--The board
of naval officers appointed by the
chief engineers of the government to
investigate and report da the sub-
ject of wave action upon the harbors
of Lrke Michigan assembled here to-
day. The board Is ootaposed of
Lieut. Col. Blxby of Chicago. Major'
L. H. Beaoh of Detroit and Major D.
D. Galllard of Washington. The
board wUl leovfe hero upon a tour
over a routo which will tako them to
Ludlngton Manitowoc and Two
Rivers and from there to Chicago. A
practical plan to remedy the effect
of tho hoavy waves and tho strong
currants upon the lake harbors has
been sought for Bomo time by marine
men and government engineers. It
Is thought that tho p'eople of Ludlng-
ton have hit upon a solution of tho
problem and their plan will bo given
duo consideration by the commission.
The plan in brief. Is to present a
broken line to the lake la both direc-
tions. Instead of a straight line of
piers.
A Word to the Wise.
It would not be good poller and the
larger number of the people do not
favor widening the street parks from
fourteen to twenty feet all over the
city at once. Let the parks on each
street be widened to twenty feet upon
the petition of Interested property
owners. The parks are mostly four-
teen feet now. Change as needed. No
use to swallow the proposition whole.

prisoned passongere woro heard abovo
the roar but they wero beyond all hu-
man aid and tho care became a pyro
for number of humnn beings.
Tho night whs dark adding to tho
horror. "Men swarmed about tho
wrtfeked car combatting tho oamos
with tho small msons at hand. Tho

RAILROAD REBATE CASE
Turned Into Regular Farce
Comedy.
(Br Associated Press.)
Washington D. C June 12. Presi-
dent Roosevelt has taken occasion to
express himself ta most positive terms
complimentary of the Integrity and
Ability of Paul Morton farmer vice
president of the Atchison. Topeka and
9ant& Fs Railroad company and now
coaoludlitg his duties as secretary of
the navy that lis may assume Uie
chairmanship of the board of directors
of the Dnultable Life Assurance so-
ciety of New York. These expressions
are contained In two letters one ad-
dressed to the attorney general and
the trther to Mr. Morton The letters
were mad4Hubllc today by the admin
istration together with a number of
otluc which taken together show
the precise of difference the depart-
ment at Justice and Mesara. Harmon
and Judson. who recently resigned as
special counsel for the government hi
the rebate case Involving the Souta
Fe road tad the Colorado Fuel and
Iron company. The special counsel
wished to bring contempt proceedings
against the officers of the road wb .
would have included Mr. Mor .
Tholr position was that the toetlnur y
boforo tho Intoratate commerce com
mission established a violation of the
court order of March 26 1908 restrain-
ing tho oompany from oxccutlng any
agreement to transport lutorstate
trafflo at rates lower than the publish-
ed tariff of tho road. Tho testimony
they contend constituted a prima
facie case against the officers of the
road and the only way to ascertain
their guilt or Innocence was through
contempt proceedings.
Attorney General Moody opposed
bringing the contempt proceedings on
the ground that while the evidence
before the commission might show a
violation of the injunction by the road
It contained nothing charging any of-
ficer of tlie company with such viola-
tion. President Roosevelt took the
ame view. Both the president and
Uie attorney general agreed tlwit con-
tempt proceedings should be Instituted
Impersonally against the corporaUon:
In both the Colorado Fuel aud Uie In-
ternational Harvester case. The lat
ter case Uie president says stands
JaoUy on the same footing and involves
practically ail of tho western rouus.
The correspondence began with a
letter from Messrs. Harmon and Jud-
son to Uie attorney general dated
February U last in whioh was Riven
a review of Uie testimony In the Colo-
rado Fuel osee before the Interstate
commerce commission with the con-
clusion Ut a vtotaUou of Uie Injunc-
tion has been shown.
