Snead Is Not Crime in New Jersey NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—Claiming that aiding and abetting a suicide Is not a crime in the state of New Jersey, coun sel for the three Wardlaw sisters now in jail awaiting trial for causing the deatlmif Ocey W. M. Snead, the East Orange bathtub victim, are taking steps to free the elderly prisoners. Today the New Jersey prosecuting authorities found on file a demurrer to the indictment against the women, and they prepared to combat when, M anticipated, it is moved for early argument before the supreme court. Attorneys for Mrs. Caroline B. Mar tin, mother of the victim, and Mrs. .Mary Snead and Miss Virginia Ward law, the dead girl's aunts, the three under indictment, declare the recent rinding by a chemist that the dead woman's body contained morphine dis proves the theory she was murdered by drowning in a bathtub and brings the tiuicide accusation to the front. Prece dents are cited in the demurrer for the claim there is no crime in suicide or In aiding in a suicide under the New- Jersey laws. The attorneys declare that if former upheld, the prosecutor cither will have to bring v. direct charge of murder or free the three women, ■who have now been held without bail lor several weeks.

LOS ANGELES HERALD: SATI RDAY MORNING, JAM AliY 2!). 1910., DENIES FARMERS ARE ANARCHISTS CALIFORNIA'S CONGRESSMAN CAUSES PROTEST SMITH AND MYRICK ENGAGE IN CONTROVERSY Charges of Robbery, Graft and Trea son Are Freely Hurled at Meet, ing of House Committee on Postoffices [Associated Press] "WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S. — "The American republic can't stand forever with this sort of thing ringing in the I people's ears—these anarchistic state ments," angrily declared Representa- I tive Smith of California today, ad dressing Herbert Myrick, representa tive of the Agricultural Press league. Myrlck was a witness before the house committee on postofflces and post roads at Its hearing on the pro posed Increased rates of postal rates on second-class mail matter. Representative Smith was referring to an editorial which Mr. Myrlck ad mitted came from a publication which he represented. "I protest that the farmers or this country are not anarchists, and I pro test that I am not a traitor," hotly retorted Mr. Myrlck, who shortly be fore had further alluded as being re sponsible for traitorous utterances. Mr. Myrick was the principal wit ness before the committee. After Mr. Smith had made severe reflections on Mr. Myrick's views, the latter said he was a farmer himself and owned a farm in Mr. Smith's district in Cali fornia. .Members of the committee are re ceiving great quantities of letters from various parts of the country reflecting the tone of the editorial, they say. Representative Fassett of New York said he received 500 daily as a result of the editorial, and others of the same kind, which be declared were "the most pitiful imitations of argu ment" that ho ever had heard of and the "most violent reading" he had ever seen. Demands Apology Chairman Weeks of the committee, after Mr. Myrick had said that he in tended no reflection on the committee, and that the statements of "robbery' and "graft" in his editorials did not refer to government 0...0ia15, demanded that Mr. Myrick's publications print a statement to that effect. Representative Murdock of Kansas, another member of the committee, called attention to the fact that the government was paying $50,000 a year for carrying the mails across an old bridge at St. Louis, when it might be carried for a much smaller sum across a new bridge receiving only a part of the business. "I think this is what you mean by your charges of graft, isn't it?" he said, addressing Mr. Myrick. / "That's It exactly." said Mr. Myrick. Chairman Weeks then said that a sub-committee engaged in drafting the postoSiee appropriation bill had dis covered this evil and would correct it. It was the only one of the kind, he said, that had been found. Editorials which caused the outbreak were entitled "A Fresh Attack Upon Liberty," "Still Another Tax" and "New Taxes and Fresh Robbery." "Are there your conclusions? Do you think there is any robbery?" asked Mr. Smith of California. "I saw that the postmaster general had reported that it cost 9 cents a pound to carry second class matter, while the government received only 1 cent a pound. If the government in tended to raise it to 9 cents It would constitute robbery, in my opinion," re plied Mr. Myrick. Chairman Weeks . replied by saying that there was no intention of raising the postal rates to 9 cents. One of the editorials referred to "scheming" and "grafting" in congress In connection with the proposed Increase, and Messrs. Weeks, Smith and Fassett, members of the committee, became angry over these characterizations. The hearing probably will be con tinued. HOUSE COMMITTEE TO REPORT FAVORABLY ON MONDELL'S LAND BILL WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.— house committee on public lands voted today to report favorably the Mondell bill admitting to entry the surface of coal lands in the United States. The mea sure affects about 30,000,000 acres of land in Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, Wash ! ington and Idaho. The bill makes it possible for ac tual settlers to make entry on the surface of coal lands under the home stead act or the desert land entry law and also makes possible withdrawals under the reclamation act. The United States would issue a patent to such lands but would re serve all rights to coal on the lands as well as the pri liege of prospect ing, mining and removing the coal. Regarding the proposed law, Mr. Mondell said: "This bill, if It becomes a law, will dpen to settlement, cultivation and re clamation millions of acres of land, the surface of which is now unoccupied except as it is used for grazing and on a large portion of which coal will not be mined for masy years, if at all, as the coal areas are extensive. "It Is a conservation measure in the sense that it both protects and re serves government coal deposits, and one., that has a bearing on the high I price of agricultural products, as It | will open further areas to production." RAILROAD MAN SAYS LAW WOULD MEAN RUIN v Begs House Committee Not to Pass - Proposed Legislation for Ad. ditional Train Crews WASHINGTON. Jan. 28.—"For God'g sake, in the Interests of safety, don't enact this ill," begged Vice President and General Manager Smith of the New York Central lines, in opposing before the house committee on inter state commerce the proposed legisla tion for additional manning of trains. He explained that trains sometimes carried more and sometimes less than the number required by the pending measures, but that arbitrary fixing of the number would ruin discipline. :< It was estimated by the | railroad counsel that the requirements of the proposed .bills which they believed to bo backed by,the trainmen's organiza- tion would cost 292 railroads in this country more than 520.000.000.

HOUSE RULES fIGHT TAKEN INTO STATES Representatives Find in Congressional Campaign They Have to Ex. plain Attitude Regard. ing Cannon WASHINGTON*. Jan. 2S.—The fight against the rules of the house has been carri■■<! into the congressional cam paign in a number of states, and sev eral representatives have found it necessary to issue addresses to "the peoplo at home" to explain their at titude regarding the speakershlp and tiie house rules. Representatives Bteenerson and Da vis, both of .Minnesota, ami both In surgents, have issued statements. Btei nerson is chairman of the commit tee ,m militia. Both have been at -1 in their home districts. Steen erson and Davis have indicated their wish to have their constituencies cx ihenisclves as to what lengths they should go in their opposition, and Bteenerson, In his statement,. points out that while he has been an insur gent and has voted and worked for reform so as to reduce the speaker's power and has gone "to the very limit." he ha.s refused to desert tho party, explaining that to have done so would have defeated the very puv l«.ue of the insurgents. lie says he will support any good Republican for speaker if ho Is favorable to rules re form ami with such reformed rules even Mr. Cannon would eat out of hand and be as tame as a dove." At least one member has suggest ed to his district that there are rules in their state legislature conferring greater patronage and power on their si Bakers than the house rules bestow on Cannon. Mr. Steenerson, for in stance, says two speakers of the Min nesota legislature have eel greater authority than Speaker Can non ever has done. SUGGESTS CREATION OF COMMITTEE FOR DETERMINING BUDGET! WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—Suggesting the creating of a committee on budget to determine at the beginning of each session of congress the limit of appro priations by each committee of the house, Mr. Douglas of Ohio today in sisted that only by such a method could military expenditures be kept down in the Interest of larger allow ances for agriculture. In appropriating 71 per cent of the revenues for warlike purposes and only 2 per cent for agriculture, Mr. Douglas declared congress was not acting for the interests of the people. Chairman Tawney of the appropria tions committee expressed sympathy with the purpose sought which, he ■aid, would be accomplished if all ap propriation bills were considered by a single committee. Debate on the agricultural bill was concluded. On a point of order a pro vision was eliminated authorizing the secretary of agriculture to purchase and destroy animals suffering from pleuro-pneumonla. The senate spent more than two hours in an academic discussion of the tariff, with especial consideration of its effect on the present high prices of food products. Senator Gallinger indicated opposi tion to the speedy disposal of the pos tal savings bank Mil, and Senator Bailey said he would oppose it every time it came up. The Gore resolution for an inquiry into the cost of the transportation of| second-class mail matter was referred to the committee on postoffices. The house adjourned until tomor row and the senate until Monday. S. P. CUT-OFF NEARLY READY SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2S.—The Redwood City cutoff of the Southern Pacific will be completed within thirty days, according to E. E.

BBB9ttlWfflffiEfi%sf%SR f I RAILROADS FIND TAFT OBDURATE PRESIDENT WANTS MERGER SUIT CONTINUED TURNS DEAF EAR TO APPEALS OF S. P. AND U. P. Wickersham Assures Chief Executive He Has a Good Case Against Lovett's Lines, So the Action Proceeds [Associate! PrMS] WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—The presi dent has determined to press to a con clusion the pendlr suit against the Union anil Southern Pacific Railroad companies looking to a dissolution of the merger, and today concluded to deny the application of Mr. Lovett, •Mi-. Harrlman'S successor, for a dis missal of the suit. Soon after Judge Lovott and a num ber of Influential railroad people ap pealed to the president to quash pro oeedlngs before Judge Vandeventer's court in Salt Lake, Mr. Taft, following the course that had been adopted in the case of the famous New York. New Haven & Hartford railroad, when a similar appeal was made, referred the matter to the attorney general for ex amination. In the New England case it was found that, because of action taken by the state of Massachusetts, and the in significance of the government's inter ests, it would be best to abandon the prosecution of the railroad, and this was done. But Attorney General Wlckersham reached a different conclusion in the Pacific railroad merger case, and to day he handed to President Taft a voluminous report, conclusions of which justified the president in the an nouncement that there was a good case against the railroads, following the decision in the Northern Securities litigation. Therefore proceedings at Salt Lake City will be pressed. The status of the case at present is this: The government has put in its testimony. The defense must begin In April, and the usual evidence in rebuttal must be submitted thereafter. Then the case will go to that novel tribunal of four judges provided by the anti trust act, known as the expediting court, and doubtless in the end it will come before the supreme court. ASK TAFT TO HELP CURB INSURGENCY Republican Whip Confers with Presu dent in Regard to Situation Growing Out of Fow ler Resolution WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.—Represen tative Dwight of New York, Repub lican whip; Representatives Boutell of Illinois and Dalzell of Pennsylvania called at the. White House to see what aid the president would lend to stem the tide of insurgency which is said to threaten the existence of the com mittee on rules. The last cause for alarm on the part of the "regulars" was the Fowler res olution, deposing the speaker as a member of the committee on rules and trebling its membership. The regulars want the president's help but Mr. Taft is reluctant to be come involved in tho factional strife. He made it clear that his main pur pose is to obtain the enactment of certain legislation to which the Re publican party is pledged and, of course, that he is willing to do what ho can to harmonize the elements in the party when tho point of action is reached upon any of these measures. Later today the president had a long talk With Representative Hayes of California, commonly rated as an in surgent, and also with Senator Pen rose of Pennsylvania. The purpose of the talk with the senator was to get an estimate of the chances of success for certain administration measures. Apparently the prospects were re ported favorable for the postal sav ings bank, the Alaskan bill, the bill validating withdrawal of public: lands for conservation purposes, and the bill to enlarge functions of the Interstate commerce commission. VEHICLES SELL CHEAPLY NEW YORK, Jan. 28.— The new firo commissioner's decision that it was a waste of money for tho city to main tain a private stable for him brought ah.nit an auction sale of vehicles from which $500 has been turned over to the city treasury. Ten vehicles were sold, but the bidding was light. An elec tric runabout which was said to have cost $2500 brought only $25. The pur chaser was a casual spectator, who knew nothing about the. value of au tomobiles, but "took a chance." ■» ♦ » — SENTENCED FOR ROBBERY CHEYENNE, Wyo, Jan. 28.—L. 11.
