The Joint resolution by Repre sentative Ewart, of Henderson, com mending Governor Pothier, of Rhode Island, for declining -to accept for Rhode Island the gift of Notth Caro lina repudiated bonds from the New York liond syndicate came up for passage and Judge Ewart in a vig orous speech explaining his resolu tion, paid the hlirbeii commendation to the Rhode Island governor and the high sense of propriety he exer cised in declining to receive the bonds, he referred at length to the Interesting and significant discussion of the issue as it transpired in the Rhode Island legislature, in which Senator Arnold was quoted as se verely criticising those members of the Rhode island assembly wbo would advocate receiving tne bonds and entering Into the harraasment of sister state. Judge Ewart ex pressed regret that the necessity had come for the enactment of such a measure as one pending for prevent ing state officers from accepting fees for ptofc'Sslonal, service in harrasa tg the state. This never until now became necessary. Not even during the reconstruction days a ben the state Is understood to have been the least creditably represented. I'n for tunately places of trust and honor have lately fallen to some wbo have thus betrayed the people and patri ot rlc statesman must submit to such a humiliating statute on account of thepe false ones. Representative Doiighton offered an amendment, that was accepted, striking out the expression in the resolution to the effect that these bonds have never had and can never have any standing In tne courts of the country. Thus amended it passed Its reading and was sent to the senate. A bill to provide a prosecuting at torney for the town of Greenville passed ita final reading.

V., Jan. 12. The defense stored heavily yesterday in the case' of Laura Rarnswortb Schetik, charged with baying at tempting to poiaon her husband, John O. Bcbenk the millionaire pork packer. Dr. Frank Lee Moyno Hupp, a ho reported the alleged poisoning to the authorities, and who was con sidered the star witness for the state, waa under cross-examination at the hand of Attorney J. P. O'Brien all day, with the exception of a few minutes at tne opening of the ses sion, When Pioseeutin? Attorney J. B. Handlan completed the direct ex amination. -. , " Was Not Sure. Until less than an bour before ad journment of court, last evening, the session waa uninteresting. Attor ney .O'Brien . suddenly collected the scattered enda of the cross-examination;; and brought out from the wit ness points considered of great value to the defen. ..."' Among other things emitted by Dr. Hupp, waa the fact that he was not sure symptoms exhibited by John O Schenk even after the removal of the latter to the hospital, were due to arsenic poisoning until a mineral water used by Schenk. was analyzed by experts at the University, of Vir ginia and Johns Hopkins unversity; that the discoloration of the patient's gums was probably due to a diseased condition of &e gums and the fact "that Behead did tot 'use a tooth- Brush," rather than lo lead poison ing, and that the millionaire packer was at no time, either before or after hia removal to the hospital, actually confined to b bed at all times. Ee statement was made by tne witnesses that f-thenk was "bed-rid den rather tbtn "bed fast." It has been generally opposed that Schenk was for weeks . tthe point of death. O bricil a!av ikured an admission that it was the wife who first sum moned Dr. Hupp and who asked li Schenk tou!d not have a trained nurse. The defense apparently also laid the fonndation for a probable claim of conspiracy. For tbe first time during the trial the name of Albert Schenk, brother of John O. Scfcetk, and head of the wealthy family, was brought into the case. 1 HON. S.LH0GEHS fiETIHES X)MPM:TEM 13 YEARS AS COR- PUHATIOX COMMISSIOXEIL Raleigh, Jan. 12.- Hon. S. L.

For Life Before Submission to Highest Tribunal Undertaken by Government Marks Culmination ot Long and Hard Fought Legal Battle Washington, Jan. 12. The Standard Oil company In New Jersey the Rockefeller holding company today began its fight for life before the Su preme court of the United States, pleaded not guilty to the government's charge . of being the moat colossal monopoly in the country, and through costly legal representatives entered into the final ,baUlc for preservation of its corporate existence.. .' . Tne argument iu tbe Standard Oil case today is the culmination of a long and hard fought legal battle. lis marks the submission to the highest court of the biggest trust busting suit ever undertaken ' by tie .government, and one that, has been waged by the highest priced legal talent obtain able. It it aimed at the dissolution of the most gigantic octopus of the business and iadustrial world and personally names the worlds richest man. U has been, all things consider- d, probably the most costly litiga tion in which the government has ever been involved. Attorney General Wlckersham, iu his argument on the same case last year before the court doclarad it as bis opinion that the Stundard Oil suit was "probably the most important eve before the su preme court." Additional interest centers in the argument begun today by reason of the fact that Justice Willis Van De vanter, one of President Taft's recent appointees to the highest bench, par ticipated, as a Judge of the 8th cir cuit court in a decision against the tract. Heretofore a justice of the court who is called upou to sit in an appeal of a case tried before hiin in a lower court, has always refrained from participation iu the review, but in the case of Justice Van Devanter, it was President's Taffa deia that he should sit In brief the charges which Attor neys John G. Milburn of New York and John G. Johnson, of Philadelphia, are seeking to controvert In the day and half of argument alloted to them, include a conspiracy alleged to have had its conception 'in ISTo; a growth into gigantic proportion, fd by il legal rebate, foste-ed by unfair com petition, and made almost impregna ble through domination ot tbe ma-ket. They must prove to the court, to secure reversal of the decision of the lower tribunal, that this growth baa been the result of extraordinary bus iness acumen, that the combination of , interests ws not a trust for evil, and that at present, tbe Standard Oil company does not control the oil bus iness. Against their arguments. Frank D. Kcilog. special assistant to tbe At torney General and Attorney General Wlckersham will relate in an a .lim ing story of high finance, market manipulation, and oppression of com petitors. Kellogg, who will make the main argumeut for the government, has been counsel in tbe two suits Institu ted by the government e gainst the Standard Oil company. He has been working to accomplish the downfall SOUTHERN WILL USE COLLECTORS Report That Railway Would mange roncy uemed Washington, Jan. 12. t pon being asked today as to the truth of the published reports that the Southern Railway company ha determined to dispense aith tfeket collectors on lis passenger trains, Mr. A. H. Plant. comptroller of the company, said: "Thta re poit la entirely without foundation. The mnungement of the company ha not had -under consid eration any change of policy with re gard to tbe employment of tlckrt collectors. On the other hand, the results that have bee obtained are such a fully to warrant the con tinuation of the system." I1RT X.tTIOVIL ttK or t w,u)tMHi:a to tM.4i:(;n. Wadcshoro, Jan. 12.

His knowledge of the I company and Ita business is more ex pensive than that of anyone outside j the concern. Atorney General Wickershum has been working on the argument which he will present to the court ever since early, in the summer. He has been ! quoted as saying that he intends it to be the crowning achievement of bis legal career. To Wlckersham will fall ot duty of "summing up" or clos ing for the government Kellogg is to make the statement, following af ter John G. Milburn, who, as main counsel for the appellant, has the right to open the case. It was in November, 1906, that the suit which is now before tbe Highest Court, waa filed before the United States court at St. Louis. The bill jof complaint was a voluminous docu ment covering 220 pages.' It purpo-,t-jed to give a history of the growth of ! the, monopoly, and was a drastic ar raignment of the corporation and its guiding spirits. John D. Rockefeller, ! Henry M. Flagler, Oliver H. Payne, i Charles M. Pratt and others. One I hundred and forty-three subsidiary j corporations were named as co-defendants. j More than two years were occupied in the taking of testimony under a 'special examiner at various cities I throughout the country. John D. j Rockefeller himself was among those i examined. jh .Mjveiuuer tv, ine circuit courts, sustained practically every contention made by the government, adjudged I he combine trust in re straint of trade and ordered ita dis solution under the terms of the Sher man law. By ita decree the StamJaid O'l company of New Jersey, the l)ai enf corporation, was enjoined , from voting the stock in any of the sub sidiary defendant companies, and from exercising any control over those corporations by virtue of the stock which it held. The subsidiary companies were enjoined from paying any dividends to the parent corpora tion. j From this decision, the oil trust ap pealed, alleging 66 errors In the de cree. Briefly these were the court erred in compelling non-resident cor 'porations and Individuals to appear at St. Louis, in overturning the plea of ! the defendants that the court had no ; Jurisdiction; In finding that tbe 19 corporations absorbed by the Stand ard of New Jersey in 1S99, were then ( competitive; In finding the seven In dividual defendants Including John D. and William G. Rockefeller, II. M. Flagler, and II. H. Rogers. In the ten years prior to 1ST9 acquired compet ing companies to suppress competi tion that tbe subsidiary companies ;were entirely controlled by the parent ;corora:loiis; and that an exchange of stocks for an interest. In a single corporation was illegal. It Is alleged that practically $500,-Oi-O.iMKi of capital Is Invested In the various companies which the present suit set Ks to dissolve.

Admiral Yashlro. at Panama, criiicixaig President Tafi's policy for fortifying the canal as a greal mistake npou the 'part of the t'ulted States government. The military officials were uuanl- , mous in refusing to be quoted on w hat ; they consider so serious a breach of International etiquette until they have j received official information of the remark accredited to the Japanese j admiral.

JAP ADMIRAL IS CRITICAL FOR HISACTIlf President Should Show Interest in Lorimer Case BAILEY CHEIK DEFENDEH The Democrats with (he Exception of Six or Eight Have Cone Over to the Auti-Loriuier Side and Lorimer Supporters Recog nize Damage. Washington, Jan. 12. When Sena tors Eailey and Paynter turn their batteries on President Taft for In terfering in the Lorimer case, Sena tor Burton, ot Ohio, will take the part of defended of the administra tion. ' ' Senator Burton, it is understood. will hoij that aa head of his party it Is the right and duty of the presi dent to take an interest in a matter of this sort. Other senators will be found who will speak for the president. , It Is likely that a number of republicans , senators will do so. Bailey J Larimer's Defender. More and more Senator Bailey is being recognized as the chief spokes man for Lorimer. The brunt ot the battle in Lorimer'8 behalf will de volve on him. Tbe membership of tbe privileges and elections committee is not strong in members who are strong debatera, and this will throw more of the task on Bailey's shoulders. , Senator Lorimer and his friends are getting uneasy over the outlook. The outspoken nature of the speeches thus far, and the brunt nature of others that are promised, and particularly the statements that take the view that Senator Lorimer himself must have had knowledge of what Kas going on at Spriugfleld, are said to be giving the senator worry. Tbe Lorimer supporters are begin ning to recognize tbe danger that they will be beaten. Anti are Gaining Ground. Tbe democrats with the exception ot six or eight, are going ove- to the anti-Lorimer side. Tbe fact that Sen ator Root, Senator Lodge, Senator Borah, and other prominent republi cans are opposed to Lorimer is hav ing weight. President Taft Is said to be using plain language in reference to the testimony In talking with senators. He is credited with having said that he was "shocked" by the testimony when be read It. In view of the attitude taken by tbo president, it is pointed out that It will be embarrassing for Senator Lorimer and the president to maintain any re lations if the senate fails to unseat him. Leading senators who are opposed to Lorimer, declare their belief that the case for Lorimer will collapse un der the battering It will receive. Soma of them predict a speedy end of it. On the other hand, there are out ward Indications that the fight will drag along for most of the season. At least a score of senators have speeches prepared, most of them adverse to Larimer. Senators Owen atid Borah are expected to speak at an early date. ISFAJ IMI.X CRAMP IS K1LLI.D IIY ti.S Philadelphia, Jan. 12.
