SEEJPRESIDENT
hey Discuss With Him ,the Subject of
Issuing Injunctions and Other
Matters.
Washington, Novi 29.? Recommen
dations 'looking toward the improve
ment of conditions of laboring men,
which it is desired for the president
to Incorporate In his annual messuage
to congress were urged upon President
Taft today by a delegation of labor
leaders, headed by Samuel Gompers,
president of the. American Federation
of Labor. .
Mr, Gompers submitted a number of
matters, including the issuance of in
unctions by Federal Judges, particu
larly as they apply to personal liberty
and their use in the settlement of dis
putes between employers and em
ployees. The exemption of labor or
ganizations from certain provision of
the Sherman anti-trust act, was dis
cussed.
The president hag practically de
cided that his message to congress
will make no detailed recommenda
tions regarding tho Sherman act. . His
decision Is based upon tho fact that
there are pending In the Supreme
court, und on their way to the highest
tribunal, a number of Important cases
Involving the Interpretation of thnt
act,, and he feels, it Is said, that spe
cific recommendations from him at
this tlmo might be construed as an
attempt to influence the court In some
manner.
The amendment to the eight hour
law, so as to extend its provision to
contractors for tho duty of enforcing
the child labor labor law In the Dis
trict of Columbia, were other subjects
taken up at the conference.

Argues That Within the Law He
Has Suffered Death Penal
ty and Should Be
Set Free.
CONSTITUTIONAL' RIGHT
INVADED, HE DECLARES
Patrick Appears in Court for the Twenty-Fourth
Time in an Effort
to Regain His
Freedom.
New York, Nov. 29. Albert T.
Patrick, whose sentence of dentil for
the iJlurrter of William Marsh Hlce
wua Commuted tci life Imprisonment
at Slit Sing, appeared today before
tho Upollnte dlvlKion of the Supreme
court In P.rooklyn, to argue thnt, with
in the law, he has already suffered
death, and thus has paid his debt to
the state in full, und should be set
free.
Patrick contends that solitary con
finement preeeedlng electrocution has
been held by tho United States Su
preme court to be a part of tho pen
alty decreed In the death sentence.
He served that time In full, and now
makes tho point that when the Court
of Appeals rc-afflrmed the decision
of the court of conviction and set a
new ditto for tho execution It trans
gressed his constitutional right in or
dering him to serve another period of
solitary confinement, thereby dupli
cating a punishment he had already
suffered.
Failure of the warden to electro
cute. In compliance with the first or
der of the court, argues Patrick, con
stitutes an uct of non-feasance.

Wilson to carry along the work of the
department to the point where the up-

methods to farming could produce
great benefit to the tiller of the soil. j

The secretary, on his way to the

public life before he came into his
present tilllce. He spent three terms
in congress and gained a knowledge nf
olftclal routine; then he went back to
Iowa to become a professor at the
Iowa Agricultural college. Then It was
that the peculiarly appropriate combi
nation struck President McKinlev.
lb-re was a man who was a farmer,
who knew the practical side, but who
also, by reason of his life as a peda
gogue wns familiar with the actcntlltc
phases of firming, and who, having
served nation In congress, understood

It was this exceptional fitness which
caused him to be appointed for the
