Springfield, 111., June 3.—The fharges that contributions to th^ legis lative "jackpot" were made to insure ihe death of the fish bill, which re uired the payment of fisher's censes were the subject of scrutiny iy the grand jury today. In addition effort was made to add to the in restigation the details of the alleged Withholding of more than $3,000 by a legislator who was to have added the rollected sum to the general "jack pot." Governor Deneen's call last tight, calling on the citizens who nave knowledge of bribery in the legislature to come forward with their assistance, was the general topic of discussion here today. The first witness before the grand |ury today was Beckmeyer, one of the witnesses on whom the state re lies to disclose pertinent details bear ing on the collection of of alleged con tributions to the fund for the purpose Df defeating the fish bill. Fish Com missioner Gohn and Chief Fish War Jen Caldwell followed Beckmeyer before the grand jury. Jackpot in Former Sessions. The existence of a jackpot fund col lected from various interests and di vided aomng Ihe legislators after the bills had been either passed or killed, according to the desire of the contrib utors, was laid before the grand jury today In the testimony of Representa tive Beckmeyer in such a manner as to establish in the opinion of State's Attorney Burke "the existence of a Jackpot, not only in the last general assembly, but in the preceding session of the legislature." Beckmyer was before the grand jury more than an hour tod told the jurors he was given |690 fillegal funds. Burke said Beck I smeyer testified to seeing six legisla tors in St. Louis, but was not able to nay all were there for the purpose of receiving a slice of the jackpot. In the list are the names of legislators not in cluded in "Wfhite's confession. That the 'grand jury questioning, concerning the fish bill which failed to pass the forty-sixth general assembly, will be productlce of more Important results than have developed since the legislative Inquiry began, is the expectation of State's Attorney Burke, Df Sangamon county. Information was given the prosecu tor, he said, that supplemented the fragments known by him before, and has completed the chain of evidence from the men who paid sums of honey to defeat the bill to a man who collected the amounts and up to a legislator who is charged with hav ing "held out" the sum given him in stead of having passed it along to the "jackpot." The state's attorney said he had been given the name of a legislator who had been given between $3,000 and $3,500 collected to defeat the bill, and who failed to turn the money over, to the "jackpot," which was its de signed resting place. The witnesses examined by Burke, parts of whose testimony were made Into a chain of information of the gtrayed fund, were Fish Commissioner Cohen, Fish "Wlarden Caldwell and Representative Faster, chairman of the fish and game committee. Some twelve or fifteen witnesses are to be subpoenaed in connection with the fish bill Inquiry. Most of the additional facts which came to the state's attorney today were furnished by Fish Commissioner Cohen and Fish Warden Caldwell. Representative Foster was not questioned, to any length by Burke. His answers were practically confined to telling what committee action was taken on the bill. Representative Beckmeyer is re ported to have declared that he will Bend his resignation from the legis lature to the governor before he leaves Springfield. Deneen Issues Statement. Springfield* 111., June 3.—Governor Dceen last night issued a statement regarding the visit of State's Attorney Burk to his office yesterday. He said bgislative corruption was discussed, and that the governor offered Burke any service possible in the investi gations. Governor Deneen then said: "The taint of guilt should be traced from Ejemebrs of thel egislature who received the bribes to the persons or corporations who gave them. The whole nefarious plot should be expos ed, and all connected with it prose cuted, and all who are innocent reliev ed from the burden of unjust suspi cion. The crime of bribery is one of the insidious and dangerous crimes against the state. It makes a farce of party's contests and elections. Our general assembly should not become a place where political highwaymen ex act tribute from defenseless citizens, or a market place where laws are huckstered to venal bidders. "Every citizen who has any knowl edge of the commission of crimes in our general assembly should furnish it the »ut£MNrtties." I V* -"d I TOW. Y/Yv"'' :%,r-. Sv:':'! 'r'"'7':! :'Vl ••.'••:• ?vv.'

Hays, assistant secretary of the Unit ed States department of agriculture, told the Northern Minnesota Develop ment association in session here to day that "the world is looking on while we farmers plod along in our unorganized, unsystematic, half-heart ed way and the world believes that were our people broader and better trained we could produce much better yields than we do and we are forced to admit," he added, "that the world is right." "Whether our activity be religious, social, political or economic," he con tinned, "we are on a 16-bushel basis with a 25-bushel opportunity. The Liood of our people, the hereditary potencies of our wheats and the pro dutive potentiality of our soil and cli mate warrant a rapid increase of wheat yields up to 25 bushels per acre and of other farm products in propor tion and even more rapid should be the growth of intelligence, home liv ing and social advancement gen erally." The cure for these larger troubles in agricultural life is in the school system, according to Mr. Hays. He proceeded to describe in detail the system which, in his opinion, would bring order out of the present chaos in the organization of country life. He declared that, except in isolated cases where the broader method was not practicable the old-fashioned one-room school house should give way to the consolidated school. The latter would provide accommodations for students within the surrounding five or six square miles. It would contain three or four rooms for an elementary school, one for th$ high school classes and a large room for laboratory' and practice work and for vocational studies. "The typical consolidated rural school," continued Mr. Hays, "will have a ten acre school farm. In this northwest country half of the farm will be conducted with forest trees In campus and farmstead. In a timber belt on part of the'farm experiments wil lbe conducted with forest trees in plot mixtures, which help to solve the tree problem for groves to protect our farm homes. "Within this protected area will be playgrounds for the students and it will contain ornamental trees, shrubs and flowers, fruits and vegetables and beautiful grass lawns. There will be a cottage for the principal of the school. The other five acres will be devoted to field crops.' Crop rotations will be demonstrated here. Methods of cultivation will be taught. New varieties of grains, grasses and other varieties of planta will be tested as al so small fruit, shrubs and fruit trees." The speaker advocated that farm boys and girls during their teens spend six months in school and six at home on the farm each year. "Under this plan," he said, "the consolidated rural school will have a full attendance during the six winter months. The children in the first six or eighth grades would start earlier in the autumn and remain In school later in the spring. Under this plan the pupils who are old enough to help on the farm not only would assist in solving the labor prob lem but during their years of youth, when they can learn rapidly, would gain the knowledge and the habits of the farmer and the farm homemaker. They would require one, two or pos sibly three years longer to finish their high school course. "The last two or three winters they could spend in an agricultural high school, such as that at Crookston." TRAVELING MEN AT ATLANTIC U. C, T. ANNUAL CONVENTION IN SESSION FIGHT FOR NEXT MEETING.

Ada, Ohio, June 3.—President Taft, in an address to the graduating class of the Ohio Northern university here today, gave a world of advice to the young men and women and discussed at some length the opportunities and limits of various professions and busi ness pursuits. The law, the ministry, medicine, teaching, journalism, farm ing and modern Industrial conditions all came In for a share of treatment in President Taft's remarks. Discuss ing journalism the president took oc casion to denounce "muckraking" and expressed the belief that this unjust phase of newspaper activity soon would be a thing of the past. He praised Roosevelt's crusade against muck rakers in this connection. So cialism was denounced by the presi dent, but was referred to as one of the problems that will have to.be consid ered during the next generation. Taft's Daughter Hears Address. Philadelphia, June 3.—The presi dent's address to the students of Bryn Mawr college, from which a class of seventy graduated, was of added in terest because of the presence in the audience of his daughter, Helen, who is a student there and will graduate next year. "Woman's College Education," was the president's topic. He said, in part "It is suggested that the higher edu cation of women rather unfits them to discharge the duties of a wife and mother that in some way or other it robs them of a charm and gives them an intellectual Independency that ts inconsistent with their being the best wives and mothers. "I utterly dissent from this view. The companionship of marTied life is the chief charm and reason for its ben ing, so far as it relates to the two per sons concerned- The enjoyment of the home, with children, and the training of them are, of course, among the most Important duties and pleasures of married life and its certainly does not detract from the power of a woman to make a good cpmpanion or to teach and train her children up to high ideals that she should have the ad vantage of the higher education. "It is not essential that a woman who knows much must conform to the unattractive manner and ways of the conventional blue stocking- that she should make the extent of her knowl edge a source of discomfort to those with whom she associates, or that she should lose her interest* in the senti ment and emotions* of life or fall to have an appreciation of beauty and romance. "I am quite ready to concede that marriage and motherhood are a moral status for woman, and, other things being equal, she is happier in that con dition than in any other. But this is far from saying that a woman's life is a failure because she has not married, and that her life may not be a failure because she has married. Lauds Home and Family. "The home and the family are the nucleus of the highest happiness, but if circumstances are such as to force women to accept husbands whom they do not respect and love, and whom they would not marry except to escape a life of poverty, the home and the family are not likely to be a model or to furnish an ideal. "One of the great advantages of the higher education for women, in my ludgment, is in the independence that it gives her in the kihoice of the kind of life which she is TO lead. "I do not think we can estimate the enormous advantage that the present generation has enjoyed and thta the future generations are to profit by In the increasingly sound and thorough education of the mothers of families. "I do not think we can estimate the increased happiness that men and women have experienced who, as hus bands and wives, have enjoyed the higher sence of .companionship that is made possible by the Intellectual sym pathy and association of ideas be tween two thoroughly educated peo ple."

INTEREST IN ELECTION Campaign Has Been a Notable One and Entire State Is Waiting for Primary.

He declared that Mr. Smith constantly sought to gratify the desires of men like Hale, Lodge, Payne, Dalzell and the "interests they represent. Senator Cummins de clared that he had but one objection to Smith, the fact that he never fought on the side of right. Indorses Garst for Governor. He specifically indorsed Warren Garst for governor. Attorney General Byers for congress In the Ninth dis trict, and the other progressive can didates for congress. "If the people of the Ninth district want to make Senator Nelson W. Al drich smile and please the interests he represents," said the senator, "then let them nominate Walter I. Smith. If they want to gratify the selfish de sires of Cannoh, Hale, Lodge, Dalzell and Payne and the interests they rep resent, why, then Smith is about the man who can do the business. "But If you want to encourage the little band of insurgents who are fighting for the Interests of the people and for what they believe is right, then let them vote for H. W. Byers for con gressman from the Ninth district." Details Record in Congress. Senator Cummins then told in detail Smith's record in congress on the var ious progressive issues, against which he had consistently voted. "He Is one of the followers of Can non," he continued. "He continually votes with that gang in congress. I don't want to say that Smith is one of the congressmen who are nominated by the interests, but he certainly has leanings that way and is willing to fol low wherever Cannon and his hunch leadv "This Is not a time for men in con gress wbo are simply willing to think right and occasionally vote right, but It is a time for men to fight for the people against the organized wealth of the country. "I have but one objection to Walter I. Smith—he won't fight on the right side. If he ever wanted to fight on the right side he has never shown it by putting on the armor and getting into the fray.

In making this announcement lasl night President Brown of the Nevi York Central lines declared that hii road was unable to go ahead with iti plans until there was some settle ment of the suit filed by the govern ment, because he believed that th credit of American railways had been almost totally destroyed by this moyt. against them. 4OT The request for the cancellation of Vjif the order, which called for 3.00C freight cars at the rate of about $1,00(1 apiece, was received In Pittsburg lat« yesterday. It was sent by Presidenl Brown to three concerns, the Pressed Steel Car company, the Standard ^, Steel Car company, and the American 'Q, Car and Foundry company.

The New York Central doesn't seem to be sure that its request will be granted, but it is banking apparently on t^ie hope that the steel companies 'W' wil lapprecl$te the position in whicb the railroads find themselves. In regard to the improvements for which $5,000,000 already has been ap propriated, the 'Central Is waiting un til such time as its officers feel that 4" they are justified in going on with the project that has been outlined.

"The credit of railroads in this} country," he said, "already has been BO badly shattered by the attacks that Tjjj have been made upon them In the past in Washington that I believe it has been almost totally destroyed by |pj this action. It will be almost im« possible, in my opinion, for any rail- s--i roads to secure a loan either here or "J abroad.

They were sold at 88% cents on the dollar. "Difficult as was the situation at that time, I am coftvlnced that this ao ', tion has made it infinitely worse. It is my absolute opinion that a railroad could not today dispose of its bonds in France at any price that would be '•, profitable to it. 1 "The rate would necessarily be so low at the present time that we could not afford to sell bonds there at all.
