Chicago today to fly to Ietrolt -were
wrecked over Lake Michigan by squalls
and fell into the waves far from land.
Anthony Jannus, of St. Louis, and his
mechanic. Paul McCullough, were picked
up oft South Chicago by the steam
sand dredger Dahlke. Walter Johnson,
of New York, flying alone, was rescued
near "Whiting, lnd., by the South Chi

Beckwlth Havens,, carrying as pas
senger J. P. lv, Ver Planck, of Flshklll,
N. Y.. owner of the machine, reached
Michigan City in safety, the only one
of the ten aviators originally sched
uled to start who made the first lap.
Jannus had trouble from the start.
He ran into a thunder storm, with
fierce squalls of wind, when he had cov
ered about half the distance. The ma
chine was forced to descend, but the
lake was so rough that it was with
' difficulty . that Jannus and McCullough
could keep afloat. The men were
paddling desperately in the effort to
keep the craft Tight side up when the
dredger arrived. A few minutes later
such a squall blew up that the Dahlke
found it impossible to tow the air craft
and was obliged to cast it adrift. Jan
nus and McCullough were almost ex
hausted. Johnson Has Engiae Trouble
Johnson was able to make a landing
on the water and was in good shape
when the lifesaving crew pulled out to
him. engine trouble had forced him
to descend.
Beckwlth Havens, who left Chicago
a. few minutes before 1 o'clock, dropped
into the smooth water of Michigan City
Harbor at 1:43. The distance is about
SO miles via the air route. Macatawa
Bay is the next scheduled stop. ' .
Johnson remained tonight at "Whit

LAWYER IS PLAYING GAME

day and both he and Lauterbach were
allowed to go with, the understanding
that if wanted they should appear
again.
With their departure the committee
took up sugar lobbying again for three
hours. Charles D. Westcott, a Wash
ington attorney, who lives in Cuba,
took up the sugar story again. He told
of an unsuccessful effort he made to
get Cuban planters to put up $25,000
for the expenses of a. free sugar cam
paign in Washington to offset the ef
forts of the anti-free sugar forces. He
declared that his efforts failed after
he had believed It successfully launched
and: gave it as his opinion that the
"sugar trust" had been responsible. He
said the trust accomplished this end
by its Influence with Cuban banks,
which could force the growers, to do
what they wished by refusing to ex
tend their credit.
Trust Dominates Agrarians.
He added that the Agrarian League,
to which every grower feels obliged to
belong-, was dominated by the "trust"
nd that, acting in compliance with. the
combine's wishes, it' lias been opposed
to a free sugar campaign.
Westcott finally said that he person
ally did not know about trust domina
tion in Cuba, but that his statements
were made on information given by
growers. He read to the committee a
letter from Charles R. Hawley, presi
dent of the Cuban-American Sugar
Company, which he said was allied with
the trust. In which Hawley opposed
free sugar, arguing that Cuba benefited
more from the preferential duty now
enjoyed . under reciprocity than - sho
would with free suger.
Senator Cummins explained he could
understand the attitude of most men
on. the sugar question, but wB greatly
surprised to see an American Interested
in securing free suga' because it would
benefit the Cuban planter. Westcott
admitted that that was his personal
object. He said he never expected a
large fee from the conduct of the pro
posed campaign.
William Whitman, of Boston, one ot
the men Interested in wool under sub
pena, will take the stand - tomorrow

Wltnna Satirises Wall Street.
In the course of his testimony today,
Lamar described the "Wall street frame
of mind" as "where the thing to do-was
to win as long as nothing criminal was
done."
"Were you In the Wall street frame
of mind on February 8 when you tele
phoned to Mr. Ledyard?" asked Sena
tor Reed.
"I was In the, Wall street frame of
mind."
"When you telephoned Chairman
Hllles?"
"That was Wall street at its best
The whole jurisdiction Is made up of
that."
"How have you delivered your tes
timony in the Wall street frame of
mind?"
"That's an entirely different matter,
and I have to face my soul's salvation
and I am under oath. I'm through with
this game."
MeClure Testifies for "Wool.
Lamar left the stand Just before 4
o'clock. S. W. MeClure, secretary of
the National Woolgrowers' . Associa
tion, took the committee away from
Wall street and into the ways the wool
people worked to keep a duty on wool.
He said the association represented
about all the sheepmen in the United
States, and that he spent much time in
Washington, although he had no head
quarters. His association, the witness said, ex
pended no money on the tariff fight ex
cept for his' personal expenses hero,
and his total account "chargeable to
the tariff had been J500 since April.
"This is the whole cheese," he insisted
when Chairman Overman sought to
uncover other expense Items.
The woolgrowers, MeClure explained,
did not get out literature, though some
letters had been sent to Senators about
the tariff. He added that the associa
tion collected about S7200 for the first
six months of this year, had a member
ship of about 32.001) and had never co
operated with the Woolen Manufac
turers' Association.
SIMMONS GETS POINTER
DEMOCRATIC LEADER FINDS
N REPUBLICAN- DOCUMENT.
Objections to Tariff Bill, Though
Closely Guarded, Fall Into
Unfriendly Hands.
WASHINGTON, July 8. Senator Sim
mons, chairman of the finance commit
tee,, turned a . trick on the Republican
leaders -here today when he got his
hand on a lengthy analysis of the
Democratic tariff bin which had been
prepared under the direction of Sen
ator Smoot, pointing out what the Re
publicans contend are serious defects
in the measure.
Senator Smoot had delayed for a
month the introduction of the analysis,
despite the Insistence of Senator Sim
mons that it be printed. On the last
day of the caucus, when the Repub
licans were assured that the Democrats
were through with- the bill. Senator
Smoot consented to send the document
in for the printer. But the Democrats
have not yet nrlnted their bill, and
have a day or two to make corrections
and laugh at th'elr opponents, inasmuch
as debate will not begin until next
week.
Knowing that the Republican docu
ment might contain valuable pointers.
Senator Simmons directed the finance
eub-committees to go4ver their sched
ules today and himself studied , the
Smoot analysis. He heard some weeks
ago that Republican leaders hao" cau
tioned Senator Smoot to hold back the
analysis.
The finance committee chairman de
termined to lie in wait for the docu
ment, and today found the result of
Senator Srnoot's careful, labors for a
month, aided by a corps of experts and
assistants. He said some errors that
could be corrected were pointed out,
but that, much of the document was
found to be argument.
The bill probably will not go to the
printer untjl tomorrow night.

REBELLIOUS MOROS
ARE EXTERMINATED
American Troops Drive War
like Tribesmen to Wild
Peak on Jolo.
BATTLE LASTS FIVE DAYS
Philippine Scouts Show Courage In
Hand-to-Hand Conflict' Despite
Hardships Pershing' in Per
son Leads Command.
WASHINGTON, July 8. A hair-raising
story of hand-to-hand conflict with
spear-hurling Moro savages on an iso
lated mountain top, with no quarter
given or expected, was cabled to the
War Department from the Philippines
today by Major-General Bell. It was
the commanding general's report on the
campaign of Brigadier-Gefieral Per
shing which Tesulted in the extermina
tion of the last considerable band of
rebellious Moros and the complete dls-r
armament of this warlike tribe.
Long ago most of the Moros gave up
their arms peaceably, but the fierce
tribesmen of Latl Ward, embracing
about 20 square miles on the northern
coast of the island of Jolo, resisted.
Recently nearly 10,000 of them stam
peded to Mount Bagsak, a wild peak
which they believed impregnable. Pa
tient diplomacy drew most of them
away, but three or four hundred of
the most desperate fortified that
stronghold and prepared to fight it
out.
Pershing Leads Attack.
"When no reasonable hope of a
peaceful conclusion remained." says
General Bell In his report, "Brigadier-."
General Pershing arrived at Jolo with
boats during the nighi of June 10,
secretly embarked his command and,
landing nearby, surrounded Bagsak the
same night to prevent a stampede of
the women and children and non-combatants
to the mountain again. As
saults began at daylight, and fierce
fighting, part of it hand to hand, dur
ing five days was marked by tenacious
resistance and counter attacks from
Moros rushing on troops with barongs
and hurling spears" at the storming
lines.
"The control of troops by the offi
cers was admirable, thus preventing a
greater number of casualties. All the
strongholds were finally taken. ,None
of the Moros would surrender; some
escaped, but the remainder were killed.
Including Az Amil and his principal
lieutenants. -
3Ien Show Great Courage.
"Our mountain guns were dragged
up the mountain by block and tackle
and rendered material assistance. Ap
parently officers and men behaved
without exception with admirable cour
age and determination, though con
stantly on duty five days and nights
of little rest and torrential rains. The
district commanded has commended
Captain Taylor, A. Nichols and Cap
tain George C. Charlton of the Philip
pine scouts and First Lieutenant Ed
ward ' Rackley of the same organiza
tion for conspicuous courage and lead
ership. "Brigadier-General Pershing person
ally planned and conducted the Bagsak
operations; leading the forces in per
son and sharing ail narasnips ana
dangers of the troops. From all in
formation obtainable the ordeals un
dergone are believed to be unsurpassed.
He has been subjected, to some criti
cism for patient negotiations, forbear
ance and efforts to avoid a resort to
fighting, but succeeded in avoiding un
necessary injury to non-combatants
and minimized casualties In his own
command."
OIL SUIT IN ABEYANCE
GOVERNMENT - ACTION AWAITS
PRIVATE LITIGATION.
Pending Action Involves Lands Held
by Railroad and Estimated to Be
AVorth Half Billion.
WASHINGTON. July 8. The "trial of
the Government's suit at Los Angeles
for the recovery of $500,000,000 worth
of oil lands held by the Southern Pa
cific "Ttail road probably will be delayed
until the Supreme Court of the United
States has decided the suit of Edmund
Burke and other private litigants
against the railroad.
This was indicated at the Department
of Justice today, although a final de
cision will not be reached until Attorney-General
McReynolds has received
a report from Attorney Townsend. his
special assistant In charge of the case,
which is pending on demurrer. The
Burke suit, which is one of the impor
tant cases left over by the Supreme
Court for probable decision in the Fall,
Involves, it is said, the same issues as
the Government action.
The lower courts, it is pointed out,
hardly would be willing to decide the
Government's case until the Supreme
-Court had given its decision. The Gov
ernment is endeavoring to recover the
lands on the ground that the patents
of the railroad company's grant ex
cepted oil lands. U ,

M'TtEYXOLDS CONSIDERS PROS
ECUTIOX OF BELL.
Failure of Seattle -Grand' Jury to Act
Indicates Civil Suit if -Any
Action Is Taken.
WASHINGTON, July 8. Attorney
General McReynolds has practically
finished his investigation of the tele
phone situation on the Pacific Coast
and will determine shortly whether
the Government shall prosecute the
Bell Interests on charges of attempting
to monopolize . the long-distance tele
phone business of independents In
Washington, California and other Far
Western states.
C. J.'Smythe, ex-Attorney-General of
Nebraska and special assistant to Mr.
McReynolds, has reported to the Attorney-General
the results of an ex
tensive investigation he has made of
the situation. Protests have been re
ceived by the " Department of Justice
from independents and much evidence
collected by a grand Jury Inquiry at
Seattle some months ago. As the
grand jury did not return Indictments,
it Is believed if the Government acts it
will be t'irough a civil antl-trust suit.
The investigation has no connection
with the inquiry into the general tele
phone situation by the Interstate Com
merce Commission, inaugurated at the
request of ex-Attorney-General Wick
ersham. The particular point which Attorney
General McReynolds is analyzing is the
acquisition by the Bell interests of the
Northwestern Long Distance Tele
phone Company and its allied similar
concerns operating in California. Wash
ington. Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Montana
and Colorado.- ,
The bell interests are said to have
acquired the stocks of the concerns,
but have not yet taken over the physi
cal properties, because of state litiga

CHEAPER CUTS USED
BUT PRICE GOES UP
Law of Supply and Demand
Plays Strange Trick on
Ultimate Consumer.
BEST BEEF SHOWS DROP
Packers Say Tendency to Equaliza
tion Has Benefited People as
Whole Demand for Cattle
Is Not Being Met.'
CHICAGO. July 8. (Special.) No
sooner does the householder resolve to
economize in meats by using the
cheaper cuts than the law of supply
and demand plays a trick on him. As
a result of agitation in favor of those
cheaper cuts, many have been calling
for them and the price has risen.
. At the same time, decreased demand
for the choicer parts of the beef has
reduced the price materially. . rfere are
the figures as given by a South Water
street wholesale dealer:

"That's what I get for following ad
vice," said a consumer today. "I started
in buying the cheaper cuts of meat.
and now they have gone up, while
cnoice cuts have come down."
Packer's Profit Little Changed.
"Sure," replies the packer. "Increased
demand will always nut ud rjrices. and
decreased demand will brine them
uuwn. out tne cheaper cuts are still
much cheaper than the choice cuts, so
the consumer can still save a good deal
of money by buying them. So far as
the packer is concerned it averages up
and he makes Just about the same profit
on a steer. That is so little that the
prices have averaged about so much a
pound for the whole steer or there Is
likely to be no profit at all. When the
top prices come down the bottom prices
must go up a little to make the aver
age."
The change in the situation, which is
attributed largely to the agitation over
tne high cost of living, was further ex
plained by a representative of one of
the big packing-houses as follows:
The Increased demand for the
cheaper cuts of beef has decreased the
demand for the choice cuts, and, as a
result, beef prices generally have been
more nearly equalized. The choice cuts
have decreased in price and the cheaper
cuts nave advanced slightly. The In
crease has been very little, while the
decrease has been considerable.
The decreased production of livestock
and the increased demand for beef Is
given by both packers and cowmen as
the cause for the increase in meat
prices. A. L. Field, one of the big cat
tlemen of South Dakota, said:
"Conditions In cattle production to
day make the industry a difficult one.
Every phase of the business h
changed. The demand for cattle is in
creasing and we do not seem to be
able to meet it. The output of Mon
tana and the Dakotas in 1912 was at
least 25 per cent lower than in 1911,
and this year It will probtbly be less
In proportion than last year."
The railroads say they do not get
any oi me increase in tne price ot
meat. They declare tfcat of $1.50 re
celved by them for taking a steer to
market, only. T.26 cents is profit. They
apportion the railroad s share this way
