The fight for amendments to the bill ha? been bitter and tonight' prospects vferc that the caucus might run through all ol next week, with a final contest on the floor of the House inevitable. Attacks on the bill began In the caucus soon after Representative Borland of Mis souri entered upon an analytical'defense of the measure. He and Majority Leader Underwood were frequently interrupted. Mr. Underwood, discussing the proposed controlling federal reserve board, said the administration happening to be in power, regardless of politics, would be most vitally interested always in pre venting panic or depression and insisted that the 12 reserve districts, instead of being means of monopoly, would be a pro tection against the concentration of cur rency in New York. Representative Hardwick of Georgia at tacked the Hill as creating a great mo nopoly in money, establishing a “gigantic political and financial machine conferring greater power than any man or set of men should have.” He declared that the day was apt to come when ‘‘some mounted Roosevelt would get the government reins and perpetuate himself as a Diaz, with all the power* of banks, railroads and oilier corporations linked.” Representative Wlngo of Arkansas, dis claiming any connection between his amendments and those proposed by oth ers who are fighting for changes, said lie proposed to protect the farmers* notes an | nUHlly held In the southern and western banks. “I plead,’’ lie said, “for sound business and not populism." Representative Henry of Texas, advo cating amendments against interlocking directorates and for what he called “corn tassel ami cotton bale cash, stated that the two per cent speculation bonds, when replaced by the three per cent non-cir culating bonds would permit a “big grab and steal by big banks." DAUGHTER WEDS JAP; MOTHER DISAPPEARS Ashamed of Marriage, Mother Hides While Wide Search is Made For Her Los Angeles, Cal., August 15.*-For four months, during which a nation wide search was made for her, Mrs. William A.

DIGGS ! -- Defense Begins Testimony Today _ IN FRESH TROUBLE Defendant Mixed in Free for All Fight in Trying to Evade Photograph ers—Father of Diggs Takes Stand Sail Francisco, August ]B—The govern ment rested today in the case of Maury I. Diggs, charged with F. Drew Caminet ti with violation of the Mann act. and the defense began its efforts to prove that Diggs and Caminetti did not transport Marsha Warlrngton and I.ola Norris from Sacramento to Reno for immcAal purposes unlawfully. After court adjourned Diggs got Into fresh trouble. I.eaving the fetjeral build ing by a side entrance to shield his wife, his mother. Ids father and three aur.ts from public curiosity, he was ambushed by a squad of newspaper photographers The women tried to run, but the photog raphers kept pace with them, snappinii their cameras as they ran. Somebody snatched at a camera. Some body struck a photographer in the face, bystanders joined in and in an instant there was a free-for-all fight at the center of a swirling crowd. Drew Caminetti waV swept into the vortex and began to strug gle with the rest. It became so compli cated that tlie squad of police who came running to the spot bundled the whole party of pirincipals into a patrol wagon and took them to the nearest station. There It developed that one photog rapher had been hammered on the head with something hard, what or by whom he was not sure. A reporter said the photographer had been smashed in the face with his own ramera. As the upshot of tllb affair, Diggs was released and a friend of ills, a law' clerk, w?as charged with assault and'batter.v. I\ .f A XX 1 A. l'tll IIOl £7 illltimil. So far as the opening statement of Attorney Devlin for tlie defense indi cated, no attempt will be made to show that the two girls did not accompany the two young men to Reno, that Diggs did not buy the tickets, that Camlnettl did not draw the money or that their relations did not fall within the language of the statute. "We shall show,” said Attorney Dev lin to the Jury, “that the purpose of tids trip was not as stated in the in dictment; that it wks the intention of the defendants only to leave Sacramen to for a short time to avoid notoriety; that they had first intended to go to some place within the state; that it never was their intention to leave the state, but simply to get out of Sacra mento; that they missed a train for Los Angeles and took the next one, which went to Reno. “This crime—if It Is a crime—is such only because the Incidents are supposed to have happened between two states. If they had happened within the boun daries of California, these two young men would not have been charged with Violation of this statute. “Two weeks previously Diggs had said lie Aas going to Los Angeles. We will show that Miss Warrington said she was going, too, and that he could not leave her in Sacramento.” Other Testimony Other testimony which the defense promised to introduce would go to show that the men had told, what they believed to be the truth about the rea sons for leaving Sacramento—that a scandal soon to explode would cover them all with shame and involve them all in prosecutions. • The two defendants had the moral support today of their wives and moth ers, who appeared in court after the noon intermission and listened to some unpleasant testimony. While Mrs. Diggs held her pretty little daughter, Eve lyn. four years old. on her knees, she heard H. LI. Diepenbrook testify to the character of her husband as i tenant. "The janitor of my otfice building,“ lie testified, “and the policemen on the beat told me that Diggs was entertain ing young girls in his office, l cau tioned him and told him that T could not have 14,m continue such conduct. The janitor told me the juvenile au thorities were after Diggs, and 1 told Diggs so." The purpose of this testimony was to show that Diggs had cause for alarm and desire to flee. Corroborative tes timony was given by P. J. O'Brien, a saloonkeej>er; D. T. Leitch, a chauffeur, and G. A. Putnam, a Sacramento news paper man. Knew Miss Warrington The latter testified he formerly had known Marsha Warrington. “I told her to shake Diggs; that he wasn’t any good; that he had a bad reputation; that it would hurt her good name and her father’s business and ruin her character to have anything to do with him. “She said. ‘I will never go out with him any more.’ [ told her that my news paper did not have any scandal story about her and would not print it if it had." The last witness was Diggs’ father, I. P. Diggs, a contractor and builder of Berkeley. He told a straightforward story of the town talk about his son and the efforts he made to induce him to mend his ways “I told him I wanted him to come and see me and round the whole thing up. His unde, Marshall Diggs, and his young wife, had told me he was running wild with other women. I told him I didn’t want the family broken up; that the sit uation was pretty serious and that I was going to prosecute Caminetti, Miss War rington. Miss Norris and himself if the thing didn’t end right away. “Shortly before he went away I tele phoned to him at Sacramento and told him to bring his automobile to Berkeley to me. I was going to take it away frftrn him because he was running around with wom en in it. ‘Then I won’t bring it,’ be said. L told him that T would go up there and settle with him.” The morning session was given over to the cross examination of Lola Norris, which left her narrative unshaken and the testimony of Nellie Barton, a friend of Marsha Warrington, with which the government rested. Miss Barton related her part In the epi sode which resviited in the collateral in dictment. charging Diggs and his attor ney, Charles S. Harris of Sacramento, with conspiracy to suborn perjury. There will be no sessions of the court in this case tomorrow or Monday. Counsel for the defense announced to night that Mrs. Diggs and Mrs. Cami netti v’ould take the stand for their hus bands and that Diggs would testify in his own behalf. With these three witnesses the defense plans to close its case, not later than Wednesday.

Believed Pest Will Reach Tennessee by 1915 BOARD CUTS EXPENSES Effort Being Made to Connect Ends of Marion-Uniontown Boulevard in Order That Travel May Be Resumed Marion, August 15.—(Special.)—The won derfui increase in food for live stock, as well as wealth produced by growing al falfa in this section, did not produce one half the impressing on the Perry county farmer as the simple but emphatic state ment of Mr. Hinds that “the boll weevil is here now; and so long as you raise cot ton it will always be here.” Many people in this section of the state have regarded the weevil as a myth, but from this time on must realize that the enemy Is now planted in the fields, and by 1915 will be as far north as the Tennessee and far into Georgia. Following the public addresses many plantation owners and negro tenants held conferences and the negroes pledged them selves to remain on the farm and help to fight the weevil. This is one of the serious problems of this section as to what will become of the many thousands of negroes when the time comes when they cannot grow cot ton under primitive methods. Doubtless many will find their way into the mineral sections of the state, buf the opportunity to grow grain and live stock will be given to all. The county board of commissioners have given to Marion that portion of the bridge tax fund recently set aside under • a new construction of the state law. Marion gets about $350. The present board is making a stren uous effort to cut the expenses of the county, as wrell as improve the financial condition. Superintendent Scales of the road de partment of the county is making an effort to connect the ends of the Ma rlop-Uniontown boulevard, so that travel may be resumed until the county secures funds to complete this work, ft was over this piece of road the alfalfa tourists encountered such bad roads on Thurs day.
