NO. 6. * I HIT BY HOBSOm IN SPEECH, “A Dummy, Used as Tool of Wall Street and Liquor In terests," Hobson Calls House Leader Underwood (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—Representa tive Hobson launched a hot attack against the senatorial campaign of Dem ocratic Leader Underwood in the house today ^rhen he charged that his support of Underwood’s presidential candidacy at the Baltimore convention was “ob tained under false pretenses.” Hobson, himself a candidate in the present Alabama contest, referred to printed report of a recent speech in which he charged that Mr. Underwood was the “tool of Wall street and the liquor interests,” and read from the senate investigation of campaign contri butions the testimony of Senator Bank- head contining the record of a contri bution of $36,000 from Thomas F. Ryan, and Bankhead's statement that Under- wod had not known who financed his campaign. “Had I know,” shouted Hobson, “that Thomas Fortune Ryan, the man whon (V - Mr. Bryan rebuked and named before the Baltimore convention and. accused of being the tool of Wall street, had financed the major portion of the cam paign of Oscar W. Underwood, I not have supported him, but I would have only would not have support ed him, but I would have fought him, and what is more, he never would have been the choice of the peo ple of Alabama.” “The support of the people of Alabama for Mr. Underwood for president was secured under false pretenses, and I here declare that their support of him for the United States senate shall not be obtained under similar false pretenses.” UNDERWOOD CHALLENGES IT. Underwood, on his, feet at once, was loudly cheered by Democrats and Re publicans as he was recognized. The majority leader first referred to Hobson’s published speech and said he had been waiting to answer it “when he could look Mr. Hobson in the face.” “I would like for the gentleman,” Mr. Underwood continued, turning toward Hobson, “to say here what he said in his Alabama speech, and whether he charged me with being a tool of Wall street and the liquor interests.” “I used the double word,” replied Hobson. “I read the testimony I have Just read here from the campaign con tribution hearings, and I assumed that what Senator Bankhead said was true— that Mr. Underwood did not know his campaign was being finraced by Wall street. I asked the people of Alabama why, when charges were publicly made tha.t his campaign was being financed by Wall street;' my friends didn’t find out. I said that he was in the hands of the managers and was being used and ap parently did not know it. rn "‘-'that, with the present state of affairs, Bad Boys Reformed By Electric Spanker HUNTINGTON, W. Va., Oct. 13- Two schools in this city where dis cipline has always been a matter of the istructonrs’ strength of arm have been transformed by means of an elec tric “spanker” into institutions of learn ing with the best average deportment of all the schools in the city, according to Superintendent Wilson M. Foulke. Both schools known for years as un ruly, had exhausted the patience of the school board. A day or so after the school season opened a carpenter and an electrician appeared at one of the schools and began the installation of a T? nr’tnpr 0 fvP-fQ “spanker” in a small anteroom. As riliTTltZi VJtsLo the “spanker” gradually assumed shape and the electric connections were made the unruly pupils began to ask ques tions, and finally they w?re given a de monstration of its ability to administer punishment. The “spanker” deiivers about five short, sharp blows a second. After sev eral of the boys had become subjects of a test of the “spanker” they had some stories to tell of its punishing powers. Immediately the “spanker” was com pleted in one school it was installed in the other institution. According to Su perintendent Foulke, since the “per suaders” have been installed and their abilities become known, not one unruly pupil can be found in either school. Deer Runs Through Kitchen and Escapes MICHEAUD, La.. Oct. 13.—Captain William Hooks, of the Micheaud estate, and his guests on a deer chase lost their quarry because the finely antlered stag ran through the captain’s kitchen. The stag had been raised in the Micheaud forest and circled before the dogs, with the riders hastening to cut off points. Suddenly near the Hooks home the dogs lost the trail and the riders came back. There the cooks told Captain Hooks that while they were busy about dinner the stag jumped through an open win dow, floundered for a moment on the floor and then dashed out through the door, heading for the swamp. When the dogs came a moment later they lost the trail at the winddw and were too excited to pick it up on the other side of the house. Dead Turtle Heads Try to Eat Chicks IT, LET GOME TO DEPUTIES John Lind and O’Shaughnessy Wired to Warn Huerta Gov ernment Not to Injure Men Now 'Under Arrest (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—After a conference between Secretary Bryan and President Wilson today it was an nounced at the White House that tele grams had been dispatchd to both John Lind at Vera Cruz and Charge O’Shaughnessy at Mexico City to make representations to the Huerta govern ment that the United States would look with displeasure upon any injury to the Mexican deputies nbw under ar rest. It has been left entirely to Mr. Lind’s discretion whether he should re turn to Mexico City to impress those views on the Mexican authorities, but Charge O’Shaughnessy has been di rected to address himself to the min ister of foreign relations and make it plain that the United States attaches “the gravest importance” to the ar rest of the dtputies and is keenly inter ested in their fate. President Wilson told callers toaa* he did not see how a constitutional election could take place in Mexico. So far as the immediate policy of the United States is concerned, it was made known by the president today that there would be no departure from the original position that the Mexicans should settle their own affairs. There are no plans today for any in crease in the number of American war ships in Mexican waters. The government here practically has abandoned all hope of seeing an elec tion or treating any further with Huerta as an individual. There is a disposition in a'dminstratlon circles to await the course of events, with the hope that the factional lines ^111 be so tightly drawn as to bring • aoout a natural adjustment without outside in terference. “My opinion is that there can be no constitutional election in Mexico under existing circumstances,” raid Senator Bacon, chairman of the foreign rela tions committee after a conference with President Wilson at the White House. The senator said he had not discussed that phase with the president, but that it was obvious that with the arrest of the deputies and the dissolution of con gress no one would dare to take issue with Huerta and that there could not be any free expression of the people’s will.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—More than 436,000 tons of useless water is shipped annually in conjunction with one prod uct alone, scientists of the depart ment of agriculture have discovered, arid they attribute to this wasteful prac tice much of the high cost of living and the distressing scarcity of freight cars each year during the shipping sea son. The experts, who have been mak ing an investigation of shipping meth ods, today made public their findings.

Roosters As Watchdogs; In Philippine Islands American soldiers in the Philippines have to fight against the watchful roos ter as well as against the belligerent native, for the rooster has a way of giving warning when an enemy ap proaches, just as the geese did in an cient Rome. One of the vices of the Moros of Mindanao is cock fighting. As a consequence chickens are everwhere in the island and the American troops have often had to reckon with the vigilant Moro rooster that has given a timely alarm not only to a hamlet or a village, but to a whole countryside. The fight ing cock is a sentinel of great loyalty. Let a company of troops set out on a night hike along a lonely trail toward the camp ground of a band of hostile natives and quietness becomes a factor of the very first importance. To sur round, surprise and capture the insur- rectos is the aim of many a night’s ex pedition, especially in the Mindanao and Jolo districts, where the disturbances are of almost daily occurrence. The slightest noise will arouse the light sleeping rooster in the trees. At once they sound a loud call. Other roosters In the usual fashion take up the alarm and in a few minutes for miles around the night is reverberating with these danger signals. The insurgent Moro needs no further notification. j4s Bad As Load Of Guinea Pigs COLFAX, Cal., Oct. 13.—The South ern Pacific company faces a perplexing problem here.
