APPEALS TO HONOR
OF VIRGINIANS
Earnest Plea Made to Jury in
the Loving Murder
Case.
ESTES' GUILT NOT PROVEN
Prosecution Makes Point That Ver
diet Should Not Be Based on As
sumption of Guilt, W'Mle De
fense Dwells on Traditions.
HOUSTON. Va., June 28. The argument
f the attorneys In the trial of ex-Judge
William G. Loving, tor the murder of
Theodore Estes. was begun late this
afternoon. The Instructions as read by
Judge Barkesdale discussed murder in Its
various degrees, reasonable doubt, time
allowance for a man's angry passions to
subside, and Insanity.
Instructions prepared by the prosecu
tion touching on the "unwritten law"
were stricken out by the court. They de
clared that the unwritten law, by which
Is meant the right of the citizen to become
the avenger of his own wrongs In a man
ner not authorized by law or against the
law, has no place In the criminal Juris
prudence of Virginia.
Attorney Harmon, of Charlottesville,
, for the prosecution, and Attorney Aubrey
' EX Strode, for the defense, spoke an hour
and a half this afternoon and the court
adjourned until tomorrow morning.
Messrs. Moore, Barksdale and Lee will
then speak for the defense, and the Com'
monwealth's attorney. Wood Bouldln, of
Halifax County, will close for the prose
cution.
Killed After Deliberation.
Mr. Harmon sought to show that Judge
Ixvlng killed Estes after deliberation,
premeditation and upon reflection," and
that the defendant was a sane and re
sponsible man at the time of the killing
thus making the offense murder In the
first degree.
"There Is no evidence in this case," he
said, "to show that young Estes had been
guilty of any wrongdoing, and you have
no right to base your verdict on any as
sumption that he was guilty."
Attorney Strode based his plea almost
exclusively on the unwritten law. He
said:
"The first principle of the law is to put
yoursell 1n the place of that man who is
before you for trial. The Commonwealth
demands the life of the defendant and for
what? I do not undervalue life; but there
Is something sweeter to all Virginians
the honor and the purity of our women.
We have written in our laws that if a
man attempts to assault one of our
daughters he haa forfeited his life.
Story That Prompted Shooting.
"Tou, gentlemen of the jury, have noth
ing to do with -the truth or the falstty
of the story that Miss Loving told her
father. When he heard that this daugh
ter was brought home drugged and un
conscious by a young man to whose
courtesy and ohivalry she had been en
trusted, he labored with his passions and
remained away from the sight of young
Estes until he heard the story of her
ruin from her own Hps."
He discussed Judge Loving's struggles
against the whisky habit, the buggy ride
and the testimony of the insanity experts.
He appealed to each Juror to place him
self in the same position as Judge Lov
ing and not to let "Old Halifax go back
on that established precedent that one of
our most cheerful and best duties Is the
protection of honor and the 'Virtue of our"
women."
During Mr. Strode's address Judge Lov
ing occasionally lifted his handkerchief
to his eyes, but displayed little emotion.
MAHONEY WINS FIRST VOTE
Miners' Convention Rejects Motion
to Fight Industrial Workers.
DENVER. June2S.-The long-drawn-out
discussion on the question whether the
Western Federation of Miners shall con
tinue to afllhate with the Industrial
Workers of the World is trying the
nerves of the delegates to the convention.
A small-sized riot was threatened today
when the previous question was called
with the object of ending the debate. The
previous question required a two-thirds
vote and was lost by a narrow majority.
A motion prevailed, however, to limit the
debates to 10 minutes tor each speaker.
Among the. speakers today was Robert
Rundall. of Goldtleld, New, who predicted
a general strike of all the miners through
out the country when the present con
tracts expire next April. He referred es
pecially to the coal miners.
Randall later explained that be referred
to the bituminous coal miners, who com
posed by far the greater part of the
wage earners In the coal field. .
A test vote was reached this afternoon
en the proposition to continue to affiliate
' with the Industrial Workers. The vote
was on the minority report on Acting
President Mahoney's annual report. The
minority report waa against Mr. Ma
honey's recommendations to keep out of
the Industrial Workers' fight and favored
taking sides. It was defeated, yeas, 112;
nays, 239. This confirms the claims of
the conservatives, who say that Mr. Ma
honey will be indorsed in all his recom
mendations, 20 to 1.
READY TO ARRANGE TERMS
San Francisco Carmen Suing for
Peace With Calhoun.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 2S. President
Cornelius of the Carmen's Union gave
emphatic denial today to the report that
the members of the union have decided
to return in a body to the service of the
United Railroads. He admitted, how
ever, that renewed efforts have -been
made to bring about a settlement and
that to this end President P. H. Mc
Carthy of the Building Trades Council
had called upon President Calhoun of
the United Railroads yesterday and again
today for the purpose of presenting a
request for a conference between Cal
houn and the committee of 26 represent
ing the prominent leaders of labor of the
city. It Is said that Calhoun gave tacit
approval to the request and that a con
ference may soon be arranged at which
terms of settlement will be decided upon. .
ICEMEX ALL GO ON STRIKE
Demand for Extra Pay Ties Vp
Trust's Business.
NEW YORK. June 28. 1600 to 2000
drivers of delivery wagons of the Ameri
can Ice Company went on a strike today
to enforce a demand for extra pay for
extra work. The depots of the company
were atored with lc. and Its arrival was
urgently awaited by thousands, but hard
ly a wagon was moved.
President Cole of the company said
that, if the strikers did not reurn to
work by tomorrow, their places' will be
filled by new men. "This strike," he de
clared, "is for the purpose of com
pelling the company to force its drivers
and helpers to join the Teamsters' Union
or to discharge them. We will not force
the men into a union, nor have we a
desire to force the men out of the union."
The American Ice Company will at
tempt tomorrow morning to break the
strike of the 300 drivers who quit work.
If the company's plans fall, as the
strikers declare they will, the situation
from the consumers' standpoint will be
serious. The gravest development Is the
threat of the crews of ice barges to go
out on a sympathetic strike. If the boat
men quit the supply of ice will have been
exhausted by Monday. Brooklyn, by rea
son of Its great area and the fact that
the peddlers cut a small figure In the
ice delivery, Js at the mercy of the
strikers.
The blow falls hardest on hospitals.
Tonight the strikers voted to help out the
hospital by taking teams and offering to
supply all public institutions.
BUTTE NEWSBOYS APE ELDERS
When Price Is Raised They Resent
by Mob Methods.
BUTTE, Mont., June 28. Because the
Butte Evening News raised the price of
Its papers to the newsboys, reducing the
number from three to two for 6 cents, all
the newsies to the number of about 100
went on a strike this evening, refusing
to accept the papers, and visiting the
newspaper offices with yells and eqlthets.
Boys who had bought papers had them
torn in bits by the dimunltive strikers
and policemen were necessary to rout the
crowd.
TISSUE OF FALSEHOODS
TAFT ANSWERS REPORTS OF
DISCONTENT ON CANAL.
Resignation of Officials Voluntary
and No Leave of Absence Asked. -Clerical
Force Reorganizing.
WASHINGTON, June 28. "It is a tissue
of falsehoods," said Secretary Taft today
when his attention was called to reports
of dissatisfaction on the part of the ad
ministration with the management of af
fairs under the Isthmian Canal Commis
sion, and of the Intention of the officers
engaged In the work to relinquish It and
return to the United States.
The Secretary was very emphatic In his
declaration that he had not received a
single communication from Lieutenant
Colonel Goethals showing In any way
that he was dissatisfied or decided to end
his connection with the work.
"No Immediate change is contemplated
In the administration of affairs on the
Isthmus," continued the Secretary, "and
there has not been a single kick of any
sort. There is no truth in the story of
the Army officers asking for leaves of ab
sence to return to the United States."
"If Jackson Smith, the commlsnlnner
who has charge of all the labor on the
ismmus, nas resigned." continued the
Secretary, "I don't know it There is no
truth, so far as I know. In the ramrti
of his resignation. -
As to Mr. Bishop, the secretary of th
Commission, who is now' on dutv at
Washington, I am not prepared to sav
what his future assignments will be. That
will be determined next week."
Mr. Taft added that neither Lieutenant-
Colonel Goethals. Major Galllard nor Ma
jor Slbert has recently applied for leave
of absence. When he was on the Isthmus
some time ago, the Secretary explained.
Colonel Goethals had spoken to him
about his leave of absence, but there has
been no recent communication of the subject.
'The President promised the Army offi
cers when they took up their work on the
Isthmus," said Mr. Taft, "that they
should have four months' leave each year,
so arranging their affairs that one man
can readily take up the work when an4
other was absent."
'I don't know where all the report
come from," added Mr. Taft. "Some one
has eathered a lot of circumstances hav
ing no connection with each other and haa
put the whole thing together as an evi
dence that dissatisfaction exists. I re
iterate that the statements are not true."
From Mr. Taft's statement today It is
evident that the whole or a portion of
the work may yet be given out under pri
vate contract. - Colonel Goethals Is under
Instructions to submit his views on this
subject with a view to their presentation
to Congress. Mr. Taft aald today that
the method now in vogue of settling labor
disputes on the Isthmus, which refers
these matters to certain persona, has
worked satisfactorily.
Mr. Taft's plan for reorganizing the
clerical force of the commission con
templates the concentration of much of
the work on the Isthmus, as most of the
money is spent there. The offices of the
purchasing agent will remain In Wash
ington under the direction of Major H.
F. Hodges of tne corps or engineers.
who will be able to handle the purchase
of supplies without gceat cost. There
will be a chief disbursing officer on the
Isthmus and a deputy in Washington.
There will also be a chief auditor on the
Isthmus and a deputy auditor In Wash
ington. This scheme will prevent the
duplication and triplication of many ac
counts and papers. The proposed chang
es have been submitted to Colonel Goe
thals and, when approved by him, will
be made public Mr. Taft today eaid the
retirement of Auditor Benson was vol
untary and that a civilian will be ap
pointed in his place.
Continuing, tne tsecreiary saia:
"The work appears to be progressing
finely. It is true that In a recent month
the excavations made under Colonel
Goethals were 150,000 cubic yards less
than under his predecessor, but thla was
due to a strike and other causes beyond
his control. Colonel Goethals will have
all the help In the way of Army officers
he may need. His assistants I am leaving
to his own selection."
What about David W. Ross, the retir
ing general disbursing agent?" was asked
the Secretary.
'Mr. Roes' resignation was not asked
for." the Secretary replied. "His work i
haa been in every way satisfactory and
he was one of the most efficient officers j
we ever had. Because of his private
business Mr. Ross wanted to leave the
Commission June 1. but I wanted him
to stay at least until June IS."
Mr. Taft declared that the resignation
of Engineer Ripley was voluntary. "He
and Colonel Goethals did not agree as
to the character of some works, and
Mr. Ripley retired," said the Secretary.
He had been designing some locks. Nor
has General Manager Bird of the Panama
Railroad resigned, as has been reported."

Culebra Cut on Canal Route Goes
Forward, Despite Strike.
COLON, June XS Despite the strike of
steamshovel men in May and the heavy
rainfall, the earth taken from the
Culebra cut last month exceeded 600.000
cubic yards. This result is regarded as
splendid and as being due to the strenuous
efforts of Lieutenant-Colonel Goethals.

Provokes Hot Debate at Paris and
May Cause Duel Premier
Makes Skillful Reply.
PARIS, June 28. The Chamber of Dep
uties tonight, by a decisive majority of
120, after an exciting eight-hour debate,
voted confidence In the government's
policy regarding the winegrowers' move
ment. Premier Clemenceau'a victory was
more decisive than his most ardent
friends bad expected. During the session
the extreme Socialists put forward
speaker after speaker, but notwithstand
ing their savage attacks, they proved no
match for M. Clemenceau, who is a past
grand master in parliamentary debate.
The Premier based his defense of the
use of military on the fact the action of
the municipalities in striking and the
population in refusing to pay taxes could
not be tolerated. With consummate skill
he replied to the reproaches that they
had become reactionary by recalling the
long years during which he had fought
against oppression and injustice and by
referring to the time when, as at Mont
martre under the commune, he almost
sacrificed his life In endeavoring to save
French officers from a mob.

Says Troops Fired First.
M. Aldy, Radical Socialist, who made
a personal Investigation of the rioting,
charged that the gendarmes and
cuirassiers fired first, and without
warning upon the people. He then
read detailed accounts of how men,
women and children were shot, deny
ing that the crowds had used firearms.
When Mr. Clemenceau defied him to
prove several of his statements. M.
Aldy caused a sensation by declaring
he held reports from officers to prove
that what he said was true and, if
challenged to do so, he would produce
them, adding:
"We must decide whether we shall
any longer submit to the fantasties of
those who govern us."
The statement called forth applause
form the right. When M. Aldy had
finished, Mr. Clemenceau said:
Laws Made for Everybody.
"The statements made render an In
vestigation Imperative. Throughout I
have been animated by the spirit of
conciliation, but,- when the munici
palities adopt an Illegal attitude, the
government has no alternative except
to use force.
"The laws were made for everybody.
Everybody must pay taxes. The poor
peasants of the north, east and center
are ready to pay more for their sugar
in order to help the population of the
south, where misery Is not general, as
proved by the accounts of the savings
banks.' The truth is that we face a.
revolt."
Continuing, Mr. Clemenceau recalled
the warnings he had issued to the sol
diers not to fire .except at the last ex
treme. He concluded to thunders of
applause:
"Our fathers, amid convulsions, to
which the present incidents are most
trifling, built upon a foundation of
rock, and at the same time gave lib
erty to mankind, and the French nation
will uphold them."
During the vote, M. Bedouce and an
other Deputy came to blows. They
were pulled apart by ushers. The
altercation may result in a duel.
STEEIi TRUST IN GREAT BRITAIN
Leading Manufacturers Combine to
Combat Foreign Competiton.
LONDON, June 38. A great combination
of steel and iron manufacturers, similar
to those existing In the United States and
Germany, is in course of formation in
Great Britain with the avowed object of
combatting American and German compe
tition, which is increasing. Nine big com
panies, headed by Vickers' Sons & Maxim,
and Including John Brown & Co., which
recently was amalgamated with the Har
lan 4 Wolff Company; have assembled 36
previously Independent concerns, which
will give them control. It is estimated, of
about 90 per cent of the steel produced in
Great Britain. - It is probable that the
combination will involve regulation of
prices, adjustment of output to demand
and equal distribution of orders.
What is primarily aimed at. It is assert
ed, is a combination strong enough not
only to control the trade of Great Brit
ain, but to "dominate the steel trade of
the world."
The combined capital of the proposed
combination Is $130,000000.

Argument on Graft Indictments
Is Finished.
JUDGE REBUKES LAWYERS
Haney and Moores ToM to Restrain
Tongues Schmlta Arraigned on
Two More Charges Dinan
Pleads Not Guilty.
SAX FRANCISCO, June 28. At the
close this evening of arguments lasting
throughout four days, the motions for
the setting aside of certain of the bribery
Indictments aealnst Vice-President Louis
Glass, of the Pacific States Telephone &
Telegraph Company, were submitted by
Messrs. Delmas and Coogan, attorneys
for the defense, and Assistant District At
torney Heney and his associates for the
prosecution. After the written citation
tomorrow of further authorities, the same
motions in behalf of Mayor Schmitz,
Abraham Ruef and the indicted officials
of the United Railroads will likewise be
submitted and Judge Lawlor will render
his decision one week later, July 6.
At the opening of the afternoon session
Judge Lawlor administered a further re
buke and admonition to A. A. Moore and
his son, Stanley Moore, of counsel for
the United Railroads, and Mr. Heney,
with respect to yesterday's war of words
that nearly precipitated a fist fight In .the
Temple of Israel, where department 11 of
the Superior Court is temporarily housed.
Halsey Also Moves to Quash.
Theodore V. Halsey, agent for the Pa
cific States Telephone & Telegraph Com
pany, today submitted to Judge Dunne
through his attorney, Bert Schlessinger,
motions to set aside, dismiss, strike from
the files and quash the 11 indictments
against him, returned by the Oliver grand
jury, in which he is accused of bribing
11 of the Supervisors to vote against the
award of the franchise to the Home Tele
phone & Telegraph Company, of San
Eranolaco. It was stipulated by the op
posing counsel that all of the testimony
taken before Judge Lawlor la the Glass
and United Railroad cases In support of
the allegation that the Oliver grand jury
is an illegal body and that the Indict
ments returned by It subsequent to Feb
ruary 12, 1907, the date when the new
grand Jury list for the present year was
certified and returned, shall stand and
serve In behalf of Halsey. The motions
then went over to next Tuesday at 10
o'clock, when they will be argued.
".. Schmitz Arraigned Again.
Before Judge Dunne today .Mayor
Schmitz was arraigned on two indict
ments, one charging htm with accepting
a bribe of $3230 from the officials of the
San Francisco Gas & Electric Company
to withhold his veto from an ordinance
passed by the Board of Supervisors fix
ing the gas rates for 1906-07 at 85 cents
Instead of 75 cents; the other charging
him with accepting a bribe of $5000 from
the United Railroads to withhold his
veto from an ordinance permitting that
corporation to electrify Its streetcar sys
tem. Judge Dunne set July as the date
on which the Mayor will answer these In
dictments. District Attorney Tjangdon said today
with regard to the Mayoralty situa
tion: We have not even tentatively agreed as
yt iroon nor selected a man to take the
plare of Mayor Schmitz. when the latter la
ousted from office. "We expect to make
such selection within the next two wef-ka.
We do not expect to take any steps In that
direction until after sentence haa heen
paased upon Mayor Schmlta on July 8. We
desire to accomplish the removal of Schmitz
with as little legal friction as possible and
we shall not complicate matters by trying
to oust him until his legal status as a
convicted felon haa been completed by the
passing of aantence.
Dinan Pleads Not Guilty.
Chief of Police Dlnan this afternoon
pleaded not guilty to the charges of the
Grand Jury, namely, shadowing the
Schmitz jurors in the interest of the de
fense and protecting the houses of ill-fame.
of the board had been always to give the
preference to citizens against those who
are not and cannot become citizens.
It had been urged on behalf of the peti
tioners that they were entitled to the
privilege by virtue of the provisions of
the treaty, but the Police Commission
contends that, if such right does exist.
It Is still subject to laws enacted under
the general police powers of the state
concerning police and sanitary regula
tions. A refusal to grant such permits Is
not, according to the construction of the
board, a violation of the right to trade.
President Hagertj, in giving the deci
sion of the board, said that It is the
policy of the board to grant such permits
only to citizens of the United States and
not to citizens of foreign countries and
he further suggested that the refusal to
grant the permits would open the way
for a determination In court of the .extent
of the rights of Japanese In this respect
under the treaty between the United
States and Japan, should the applicants
desire to take the matter Into the courts.

BAN FRANCISCO, June 28. The Board
of Police Commissioners yesterday denied
the application of five Japanese for the
