WILL OODOE THE
HARVESTER TRUST
St. Petersburg, Feb. 10.--Ex
tensive experiments with agricul
tural implements were made by
the Russian department of agri
culture during 1912 with a view
to ending the dependence of Rus
sia on American manufactures.
Many of these implements, ac
cording to an olTicial report is
sued today, successfully stood the
requirements under varied and
difficult conditions--notably those
coming from Canada, and it is
said they can be manufactured
equally as well in Russia.
It Worked With Force.
New York. Fell. I o.—One of I In*
buildings housing the Rockefel
ler institute was shaken to its
foundations today by an explo
sion in the chemical laboratory.
The detonation alarmed the
neighborhood and kindled a tire
in the experimental room. II was
promptly extinguished. Dr. I.a
Farge, working under instruct ions
from Dr. Alexis Carrel, famous
..I tin* world for his sur
gical experiments, had completed
an experiment and stepped out the
door when tile explosion oecur
Ired. lie was hurled from bis feel
and tossed into a corner, but was
not seriously hurt.
Fatal Jump Grants Relief
New York, Feb. 10. — Burgess
Dickinson, a young student of
music, whose body was found last
night at the bottom of an air
shaft of the apartment house
where lie lived in Washington
Square, is believed to have taken
a suicidal leap from a window on
tiie sixth floor because he was dis
couraged in his ambitions of mu
sical composition. His brother,
Howard Carter Dickinson, who is
an assistant district attorney, de
clared today that he believed the
young man was temporarily in
sane.
Roof Stolon Prom House.
Chicago, Feb. 10.—Of all odd
booty of thieves shown in the po
lice records, the most curios was
reported today when K. A. Wil
liams, who lives alone and works
at .night, complained that thieves
had stolen the roof of his house.
“If it rains or snows today my
furniture will bo mined,” sighed
Williams. Williams’ house is a
onc-ro m affair • which he had
just plac- i a new n.of. The new
timber evidently vns regarded »
valuable asset by the thief or
thieves.
At the hour of going to press
the government was making its
closing argument in the election
.fraud cases in which Fredolin and
Falsiadt were jointly indicted.
The jury will have the case in
their hands (his evening. The
case has been a long one and was
closely tried by both the prosecu
tion and defense. C. K. Bunnell
represented the defense alone,
Senator Ray having departed for
Jiis home in Seward on the Yu
kon.
To the Public.
We hereby announce that we
have retired from the banking
business and have transferred
our banking department to the
Valdez Bank & Trust company,
for whom we bespeak the good
will of the public.

APPELLATE COURT
AFFIRMS LYONS
!
Summers, Juneau Bank Wrecker,
Must Serve Five Year Sentence
Passed by Judge Lyons.
j
I
The appeal of C. M. Summers, :
(lie Juneau banker, who was emu ,
vieted before Judge Lyons furl
bunk wrecking, lias been denied !
another bearing amt must serve;
I tie sentence of five years impos- ■
ed upon him.
Summers, who was president of!
I to* National Hank of Juneau, was i
convicted on 53 counts alleging j
fraud, and through his attorney, I
L. I’. Shackleford, demurred to i
(lie indict ineiit. alleging that but ;
one count, could lie charged in ,
each indictment. Judge Lyons ov- i
erruled the demurrer, claiming!
that under the Alaska practice all j
the counts could be joined.
Summers stood on bis demur- i
rer and refused to go to trial. |
and invited tile sentence of the
court, whereupon Judge Lyons
sentenced him to serve live years
at McNeil’s Island.
An appeal was immediately lak- I
en to the appelate court and Judge
Lyons’ ruling has been affirmed.
Summers is now in southern Ore
gon, out on bonds, and it is prob
able he will very shortly be taken
into custody by an officer of the
government and taken to McNeil’s
Island to serve his sentence.
C. M. Summers was represent
ed by Shackleford & Bayless and
the government prosecution was
handled by U. S. Attorney Rust
gard.
Attorney sshackleiord lias wired
the appelate court asking for a
stay of CO days to file a motion
for a new trial and other neces
sary proceedings.
Summers was the leader in the
Juneau ring which, with Hoggatt
and Shackleford, controlled the
Republican party in the territory
and named the federal officehold
ers.
METHOD NEEDED FOR
DEALING WITH CRIMINALS
Chicago, Feb. 10.—Scientific
methods of dealing with criminals
were urged by James II. Tufts,
professor of philosophy of the
University of Chicago in a talk
here last night before it woman's
! club.
“Our criminal laws must lie
changed.” he said. “Crime is a
matter of degree, not a question
j of absolute guilt or innocence.
The juvenile courts have taken a
step in the right direction, and all
punishment should be inflicted
with a view to the conditions that
made the crime possible and with
the idea of reformring the offend
er. In doing this science can he
jof great aid.”
Prof, rufts dwelt on the effects
of heredity and environment on
liic individual. He expressed the
opinion that heredity could lie
controlled, although, he said,
there has not been much advance
along this line by human beings.
It is worth while taking a
chance on the $800 diamond ring
being raffled at Plant & Com
pany’s, jewelers.
