President Greatly Distressed Over J
Accident in Which His Son ]
Figured. j
BEVERL.Y, Mass., June 28.?Because of 1
the serious condition of Michael This- '
thwolla, the Italian workman who was
injured by one of President Taft's automobiles
yesterday. Robert A. Taft, the
President's eldest son will not go to New ]
I.ondon for the Yale-Harvard boat race
Thursday.
The injured man was reported to have
passed a very comfortable night, with im- fi
proved chances of recovery, but his name a
still continues on the "dangerous" list. '
The case is in charge of Dr. R. J. Mix- ?
ter of Boston, who came here yesterday *
at the earnest solicitation of the Presi- '
dent. Robert Taft keeps closely informed
of Thlsthwolla s condition. 1
Dr. Mixter arrived late yesterday after- s
noon and is working with the hospital a
authorities, doing all that can be done for a
the injured man. s
Robert Taft was badly broken up over v
the affair and has spent much time at the F
hospital. *
d
President Taft today received a tele- r
gram from Beverly, stating that Dr. Mix- c
ter, the Boston physician, who was en- c
gaged by him to attend the Italian la- *
borer who was struck by Robert Taft's
automobile yesterday, believes that the r
injured man will recover. The President c
was much pleased to get the telegram <
and expressed the hope that the con- <
elusion of the physicians will prove correct.
President Taft was greatly distressed
when he learned of his son's unfortunate
accident at Beverly. Mass. He imme- i
diately sent a long telegraphic message '
to his son, the text of which was not
given out. hut which is said to have
contained instructions to do everything
possible for the injured man. The following
telegram then was sent to an old
college friend of the President. Samuel
Oarr of '.( ? Ames building. Boston.
"By an unfortunate automobile accident
at Beverly my boy. Robert, struck
a street laborer, fracturing his skull. He
is ai Beverly Hospital. Will you not call
up by phone the best surgeon in Boston
and have him visit the hospital at once
and tender service to the resident physician
and do all he can for the injured
man'' WILLUM H. TAFT "
The President then sent a personal
telegram to the Injured man expressing
his profound regret over the accident and
conveying to the victim his earnest hope
for a speedy recovery. This telegram was J
not made public. i

GIRL S DEATH ACCIDENT.
loroner's Verdict in Killing of
Negro Child Near Rockville.
pecial Correspondence of The Star.
ROOKVILL.E, Md.. June 2S, lftlO.
An inquest into the death of Rutli
food, the fifteen-year-old colored girl,
rho was Sunday evening killed by an
utomoblle driven by Roy M. Palmer,
ras held here yesterday afternoon, with
ustice of the Peace Reading acting as
oroner. After hearing the testimony of
bout a dozen witnesses, a number of
rhom witnessed the accident, the jury
rought in the following verdict:
"On June IB. l'.MO, on the outskirts of
tockville, in Montgomery county, Md.,
tuth Wood came to her death by being
truck by an automobile driven by Roy
'aimer and we find that It was an unvoidable
accident."
While the testimony showed that Palner
was driving his machine rapidly it
Iso showed that he made every effort to
revent the accident.
The most important witness was Mabel
Iartin, a young colored girl, who, with
everal other girls, was walking along the
oad with Ruth W<g>d as the automobile
ame along. She swore that Palmer
ounded an alarm and attempted to steer
is machine away from the girls, but that
tuth Wood, instead of continuing to the
?ft of the road, as did her companions,
uddenly darted to the right just as the
utomobile turned in that direction and
ras struck.
The jury was composed of the followig:
Benjamin C. Hughes, foreman; James
\ Kelchner. William B. f'arr. Turner W.
Velsh. 1,. D. Nicholson. James E. Kemp,
ohn H. Hilton, Thomas C. Oroomes,

TO PASS ON CONTESTS.
Jew Division to Be Created in the
General Land Office.
A new division will he created in the
;eneral land office July 1 to pass upon
.11 contested government land cases. Wlllam
J. McGee of Michigan, who for sevral
years has been a law examiner in
he general land office, will he chief of
he new division.
The additional office will absorb part of
he functions formerly exercised by the
pecial agents' division of the land office
.nd is designed. Commissioner Dennett
ild, to relieve that division of the necesilty
of first prosecuting a case and aftervard
sitting in judgment upon Its own
>roseeution. Previously a special agent
vould conduct a hearing of a case niler
Investigation before a receiver and
egister of a land office, and after tnese
(fflciala had rendered their decision the
ase was subject to the review of the
pei ial agents' division.
In future the opinion of the receiver and
eclster will be passed upon by the new
livision. The effect is to strip the ape:ial
agents of their former dual capacity

LAWYERSOFFUTURE
College-Trained Ones Will
Solve Great Problems.
SO SAYS MR. WICKERSHAM
Contentment With Mediocrity Danger
Confronting Democracy.
ADDRESS MADE AT HARVARD
Attorney General Reviews Developments
Toward Control of Public
Utilities in Last Few Years.
?
CAMBRIDGE. Mass.. June 2>.-The college-trained
lawyer will solve the great
legal and economic questions of government
in this and the next generation.
That is the opinion of Attorney General
Wlckeraham.
He will not be the man whose only acquaintance
with the principles of law and
government has been derived from text
books and lectures. Such a man would
not be equipped'to cope with them. He
must be the man who has found the "living
law" as It has been developed In the
real transactions of men. Except with
possible rare exceptions, the day of the
plodding student who read his Blackstone
in a desultory, unmethodical. Interrupted
fashion from the musty shelves of some
practicing counselor is over.
The college-trained lawyer of this and
the coming generations who will solve the
problems of government Is the man who
has mastered the principles and doctrines
of law as a science through the selection,
classification and analysis of adjudged
cases involving their application.
Qualifications Needed.
The Attorney General, speaking here to- |
day before the Harvard Law School Association
on "The Relation of T^egal Edu
cation to Governmental Problems," predicted
that the lawyer who obtained those
qualifications would be l.ie man who
could successfully cope with the great
questions which will he presented for solution
with the growth and expansion of
this country.
"'It is only by the labors, the thought
and the criticism of men who have found
the living law as it has been actually
developed by the real transactions of
men that our government may" be governed
and. guided on safe and progressive
lines and our jurisprudence developed
along paths of natural, sound and wholesome
growth," declared the Attorney
General. "The wise solutions of such
questions as these can only be reached by
men who are able to deal with facts and
principles as compared with Information
acquired and memory."
Mr. Wickensnam made an able address.
In opening he declared he had been able
to obtain scant leisure from the duties
of official life and referred to himself as
"an overburdened public official whose
mind was necessarily crowded with the
prosaic and exacting details of government."
"Contentment with mediocrity." Mr.
Wickersham continued, "is. in my opinion,
one. of the greatest dangers which
confronts successful democracy everywhere.
The hope of averting it rests
largely with men of sound legal education.
Excellence Is Belittled.
"For this <same contentment with
mediocrity breeds an impatience with any
sort of superiority, a desire to belittle all
excellence, a readiness to impute wrong
motives to anything not easily understood.
to accept calumny as truth, without
inquiry, and a gradual lessening for
advancement, as it is perceived that
peace, which Is often mistaken for happiness,
is alone to be found by accepting
contentedly a place in the undistinguished
multitude."
Here the Attorney General quoted from
the report of a committee some time
ago appointed by the faculty o4 arts and
sciences of Harvard, which expressed the
opinion that in awarding high rank or
distinction in college emphasis should be
laid more largely than it Is upon ability
to deal with facts and principles as compared
with information acquired or
memory.
"It is precisely that ability which Is
the Ideal of the legal profession." said
Mr. Wickersham, "and the achievement is
characteristic of Its most honored leaders
and is utterly inconsistent with a
contentment with mediocre things.
Exceptions to Bule.
"That clear thought, sound learning
and a consummate ability to deal with
facts may be attained without a law
school training to abundantly attested by
many illustrious examples. Many examples
may be cited to sustain the theory.
But as early as Blackstone's day
thoughtful lawyers realized that only occasional
and exceptional men accomplished
good results by this haphazard sort of
education.
"But the tendency of all collective Instruction
is undoubtedly to discourage
the free development of .individual characteristics,
to induce conformity with
conventional standards and to furnish
the mind with a certain excellent equipment
admirably adapted to the ordinary
exigencies of life, but not always fitted
to attack and master exceptional difficulties.
The genius of Uangdell rescued
the Harvard Haw School from that tendency.
"The rapid growth of our population, the
marvelously developed facilities of intercourse
and communication by land and
water and air have given rise to problems
of increasing complexity concerning
the relation of individual effort to the
general public, which, by reason of the
obvious inability of any single state of
the Union to deal with them, have been
pressed upon the national government for
solution."
Control of Public Utilities.
The Attorney General then reviewed in
brief the development of the last few
years toward the control of public utilities,
and compared to it the growth of
the machinery of trade, now come to a
control of great lines of industry by
corporations or individuals.
"Never before has it been possible to
lay so direct a toll upon the public
through the concentration of industrial
power," he said. "The full significance
of the attempt to check the growth and(
power of great combinations through the'
commerce clause of the Constitution was
scarcely perceived at the time of the enactment
of the Sherman law, nor until
successive interpretations of it had been
given by the Supreme Court.
"The history of nations indicates that
a certain period of national development
becomes necessary to interpose by legislation
between the rapacity of individual
greed and justice and fairness to the
whole people.
' The right of every community to legislate
respecting property affected toy a
public use was early recognized."
The Trust Cases.
Referring to the desirability of further
interpretation of the Sherman anti-trust
act by the Supreme Court, it was suggested
by the Attorney General that the court
has held wherever the obvious or necessary
purpose of a combination or agreement
is to control prices, restrict competition
or create a monopoly in commerce
among the slates or within foreign countries
it falls within the condemnation of
the statute.
"Precisely to wnat extent tms construction
shall apply to great combinations
between competing corporations through
the device of stockholding or otherwise
has yet to be finally determined by the
highest court," Mr. Wickersham added.
"During the past twelve months there
has heen argued before and submitted to
that tribunal for its decision this question
in its application to two of the larg
eat combinations of corporations existing
In this country.
"The crippled condition of the court,
however, prevented a decision, and the

cases have been remitted for hearing at
the next term. It is greatly to be desired
that they may be decided at an early
date and that the principles of the decision
may be so clearly laid down as to
afford a practicable standard of conduct
which, while securely protecting against
the inevitable evils of great monopoly
and deliberate attempts to arbitrarily fix
prices and stifle combination, will yet
leave untrammeled avenues for the legitimate
development of our domestic and
foreign commerce."
The Boosevelt Class.
The law school set the commencement
pace today, although class celebrations,
especially that of 1880, in which former
President Roosevelt was graduated, also
held attention.
The Roosevelt class of 1880 journeyed
nut to the Hoosick Whisick Club in the
Blue hills, where all sorts of sports were
enjoyed by athletes of thirty years ago. I
As Col. Roosevelt had already notified j
the secretary that he would not be at
these class observances, the members of
the class had the club to themselves and
were undisturbed by a curious throng.
Seven classes lunched and dined at the j
Country Club at Brookline, while later I
in the day many of the officials of the j
university were busy welcoming oandi- j
dates for honorary degrees, to be con- i
ferred at commencement tomorrow.
The names of those who will be honored
by Harvard tomorrow will not be
made public until just before the exercises,
for it is the custom at Harvard
to confer no degrees unless the recipient
is present.

New Filing System.
The Attorney General has inaugurated i
a flat filing system in the Department- of j
Justice to replace the old system, which 1
had been in use for years. The Depart- 1
ment of Justice operates a central filing J
system for the entire department, and j
this fact causes it to be much more complicated
than would otherwise he the j
case. The details of the system have i
been worked out by O. J. Field, chief ]
clerk, and O- F." Mikkelson, chief of the i

1 SPECIAL. I
| To those who have been considering the pur- i
| chase of the houses on Chapin street between 14th
I~ and 15th streets we wish to state, notwithstanding
the fact that the government has decided to purchase
the large tract of land near these houses, between
15th and 16th, for a public park, the owner is still
willing to sell the remaining house, 1465, for $5,750.
I The advantages of owning a residence so near this
beautiful public park will be very great.
Chapin street is one of the best improved squares ?
on the Heights. The house has a southern exposure,
and will be delightfully cool in the summer and
2 easily heated in the winter.
I $5,750 is a very low^ price for such a beautiful
I residence, with all the conveniences found .in a
I $15,000 or $20,000 residence?hot-water heat, hard- |
I wood polished floors, expensive decorations, etc. |
I Large lot to a good public alley. i
I If you wish to purchase the remaining house, :
we advise you to act quickly. Open for inspection. *
