Gloom at Inaugural Last Act of Gov Yates
Springfield, Jan 12 The inaugural day for Illinois governors was shadowed by news of Gov Deneen's daughter's illness and a race to Chicago. A theft attempt during the ceremony saw Senator Henry Evans seize a diamond, and Gov Yates granted clemency to several convicts before leaving office. The Illinois Federation of Labor accuses Illinois of receiving penal-plant goods, while canal and state printing issues spark legislative maneuvering. Next week the legislature will begin active work and committee assignments will shape early sessions.
