Incendiary Earthquake Loaiea Re
pudiated 35 Dead In Rock Island
, Wreck Death In Hotel Fire.
With the finding Sunday of the
personal effects of the man who threw
the bomb In the Fourth Street Na-
. e. tloual bank at Philadelphia on Satur
day, killing Cashier W. Z.! McLear
Mid himself, there la little doubt left
In the minds ot the police that he was
Rollo Steele of Garner, la. -
The bomb thrower Is found to have
slept Friday night at the GrantHouse,
a hostelry on the outskirts of the
Tenderlolu, frequented mostly tjP re
sectable . working people. He (regis
.cred as J. R. Steele of New York.
Ilarly on Friday night he engaged a 50
lent room.. He carried a grip which
le refused to allow the colored por
er to carry to the room.
When detectives 'searched the room
unday they found several yardfc of
ow fuse, a number of detonating
I ps, a revolver, a box of cartridges, a
I imber of tools and dome clothing.
iere wag a suit bearing the tag of a
ilcago clothing house and a pair of
t erallg marked with the name, of a
t. ncliurg, Va., merchant There wns
J-.lsofi waybill for a box shipped Over
me Houtnern railway.
As Rollo Steele Is reported to have
been in Chicago and Lynchburg, and at
the- latter place lately, the police are
practically sure ot lyomb thrower's
identity. . .
It is probable that none 'of those
hurt by the explosion will die Will
lam J. Crump, the negro messenger ot
the bank,' is the most dangerously in
jured and was on Sunday operated on
to save his eyesight., His erej will
never regain their normal state.
The police Saturday found A frunch
of keys in a fragment of the clothes of
tbe bambthrower. It bore a tig1 mark
ed "R. 'Steele, Garner, la." badge
of the Modern Woodmen of the World
was also found which, it is' thoug'u,
belonged to him.
Those who know Steele well say
that for some time he had. been experi
menting with .explosives and" electric
batteries He frequently talked in a
way that indicated thoughts of violent
acts.
Steele failed 10 years ago Ls a con
crete contractor. He has had sickness
J In his rurally and been in deljt and his
menus' it'i'fl say mat ne prooaoiy was
driven to desperation by his reverses.

,Wahlngtonj Jan. 8. In lecidinj

States passed upon the validity of the
stock transfer' lax law, in ijffect hold
ing it.to be not in' eontravention of th
constitution and thus sustaining the
decision of the' aurreme court of New

The case, was brought 1) Hatch oc

the rulIng8 .of the. New fork courti
by which ho -was refused release or
writs of haeas corpus. Tbe statute
imposes a fine and imprisonment for

It is charged that in Ju ir H905, be sold
to another ConnectinV man eorae

arrested Hatch immeately applied
for a writ of habeas

sort.
The question raised
forcement of the law

iipus and car-
ourt cf last re-
as that the en
would deprive

Kile it was ar
gued that the New Ylrk state consti
tution had also been (violated in that
the amendment to tlii tax laws under
which proceeding f. XIb . had lain for
only one day Instead of three on the
tables of members if the New York
legislature.
Justice .Holmes di posed of all the
objections to the Ne ' York statute in
succession. Of, the contention that a
tax on sales is a ti : on property, he
said in part: "W'lia ever the right oi
parties engaged Injcommerce among
the states, a sale l'Pends in part on
the law of the .ste where it takes
place for Its valldit.
, and in the courts
of that state, at ie
t for the mode of
proof. No one rmld contest the
power to enact a iatute of frauds for
such transactions.
therefore the state
may make parties
ay for the help of
Its laws, so far this objection Is
concerned.'
With reference -th
the argument that
tne tax is an interference with Inter
state commerce he jmtlined the court's
position as follows!
"There is not a ibadow. of a ground
for calling the transaction described
such commerce, .'the bargain was not
affected In an-y way, legally or prac
tlcally, by the fft that the parties
happened to have come from another
state before they inade it. It does not
appear that the petitioner came Into
New York to sell his stock, as it was
put in his behrlf. It appears only
that he sold after coming into the
state. But we are far from implying
that it would iave made, any differ
ence if he had couie to New York
with the supposed intent neot any
bargain was niaae."
POSTOFFICE FRAUD OK TJ$,
House Passed a Bill Providing For
Judicial Review. ,';
Washington, Jan. 8. -rThe 'homse
passed a bill providing for a Judicial I
review of orders1 excluding persona
from the use of the United States mall
facilities, after a debate lasting most
of the session. This debate was par
ticipated In by Representatives- Crum
packer (Ind.), the author of the bill;
Overstreet (Ind.)', Dalzell (Pa.), Lit
tlefield (Me.), Perkins (N. Y.), and
Mann (111..), who led the opposition.
In arguing that the bill should be
passed, Mr. Crumpacker said the pow-'
er given the postmaster general, un
der the statutes, to issue fraud orders
was not all in the nature of adminis
trative discretion. It partook rather
of the nature of a aollce power for the
regulation of the morals of the people
of the country. . ".''
Mr. Mann read Several advertise
ments whlcB he said seemed to show
that concerns were still doing busi
ness which VBbt to'come within tha
scope of fraud orders. He said the
bill was defective and . that' there
should be no. permitting doubtful con
cerns to fleece the public. ,

This corner Is one of tuif highest

as the members of the church have al

of a monunent to Its builder. -The
tower will be so solidly con

expected to Injure it for centuries. It
will have many windows and observa

shall be wasted. Instead there will be
eight floors fitted up and furnished.
The second floor will be a meeting

As a finishing feature it Is probable
that a set of chimes will be installed
and that the tower will regulate time

of Indiana. On Christmas day a burg
lary was committed in the office of
John H. Kennedy, Harrison, Ind., and
cheeks and money orders for upwards
of $000 to $700 were taken. Stlnson,

in Chicago he told John Mitchell, pres
ident of the United Mine Workers,
that he was going to New York city.
Mr. Mitchell saw in the papers an ac
count of the robbery and that Stlnson

there have burned the company's store

erty is owned by A. Garcln, a French
citizen. It was thought that the tex
tile strike had been amicably settled
through the intervention of President
Diaz and Vice President Corral, but it
appears that a number of men are
dissatisfied with the terms. The town
is about 40 miles southeast of the City
of Mexico and Is one of the most im

Finding- Most Interestluar Chapter.
Women as n class are credited with
, haying no scruples about opening a
book at the middle or end or anywhere
else tliey may expect to find the most
Interesting chapter. A frequent fern
nlno visitor at libraries was overheard
revealing to a friend of her own sex
her secret of locating at once the most
thrilling chapter in any book, no mat
ter' how unfamiliar one may be with
It. "You simply close It tight," she
said,, ?nud glance along tbe edge of the
leaves. ' It Is seldom, Indeed, that you
do not notice a distinct line, or even
more than one, caused by n numbei
of edges soiled slightly . more than
those about them. Open the book there
aud you have the beat chapter." ' A
librarian explained this by saying that
the reading and rereading of the par
ticularly interesting chapters of a book
naturally cuuso certain pages and their
edges to be more soiled. Of course the '
longer the book bus been In circula
tion tbe more distinct are the marks.
