elves to other matters.

, ply measures and the introduction of

committee together on Friday to -take
tip the anti-trust programme.

merce Commission of whether any rail
roads have favored the United States
Steel Corporation with illegal rebates
was proposed today by Senator Lane.
He aaked immediate passage of his
resolution, but it was carried over until
tomorrow.
Bills to conserve radium on the pub
lic lands of the United States, for the
regulation of trusts, for various inqui
ries and the usual grist of special meas
ures poured through the hopper of the
House when Speaker Clark brought
down his gavel.
In the Senate, a Congressional Inves
tigation of tlie Michigan copper mine
strike proposed In a resolution by Sen
ator Ashurst was one of the features
of the reassembling.'
Four-' Subjects In Line.
Four generatl subjects will embrace
much of the work of Senate and House
during the coming months. They are:
Control of trusts and monopolies, in
cluding legislation to prevent cold stor
age manipulation, unfair price cutting
and other abuses directly affecting the
retail business.
Rural credits and other legislation
directly affecting farmers and land
owners, such as good road improve
ment and Federal aid to vocational and
agricultural education.
Strengthening of the National de
fense. Passage of the annual appropriation
bills, carrying more than $1,000,000,000
for support of the Government.
Aside from those general subjects.
Congress will take up early In the ses
sion the settlement of labor problems of
far-feacliingr Importance.
. Government ownership of railroads,
as proposed in the Alaska railway bills,
will be forced upon the attention of
members of both bodies.
Woman's suffrage will also srive both
branches of Congress a busy time.
Diplomatic relations with Nicaragua
und other Central American countries
may give further trouble to the Senate.
The first Nicaraguan treaty outlined
by Secretary Bryan did not meet with
the approval of the Senate committee
on foreign relations, because of the
protectorate it would have established
over the southern republic. It is ex
pected that a general policy toward
Central American countries will be out
lined by the Senate. President Wilson
and Secretary Bryan.
SEA TRAGEDY IS ECHOED
COMPENSATION FOR. LOSS OF LIFE
OUT TITANIC COURT ISSUE.
On Outcome of Supreme Court Case
Depends Whether Ill-fated Skip's
I Owners Pay About S13.000.000
' WASHINGTON. Jan. 12. Compensa
tion for the stupendous loss of life and
property with the sinking of the steam
ship Titanic will be up for considera
tion tomorrow by the Supreme Court
On the outcome of the argument of
some oi America a leading lawyers will
depend whether the Oceanic Steam
Navigation Company, the owner of the
Titanic, must face the payment of
some $13,000,000 of claims or whether
Its liballity is to be limited to some
$90,000.
Intricate questions of law, which
have perplexed legal minds of the
United States and Great Britain since
the Tltanic's maiden voyage was ended
with the iceberg's fatal blow and which
have not been decided by the British
courts, will be up for discussion.
The navigation company seeks to
have the American court hold the ad
miralty laws and rules of the United
States applicable to the case, . and
thereby limit the liballity of the com
pany to the salvage from the wreck,
the passenger and freight money re
ceived on the voyage, amounting to
some $90,000 in all.
Claimants seeking to recover for
loss of lives- baggage and freight have
dispatched about a score of lawyers to
the Supreme Court with briefs In their
behalf. Every inch of the ground upon
which the navigation company is basing
its claim to a limitation of liability is
to be contested.
In the first place, it . is contended
that American law does not apply, be
cause the disaster occurred on the high
seas. Furthermore it is contended that
the American law contemplates limlta
tion of liability only when the disaster
results from the collision of two ves
sels and not when it occurs from strik
ing an iceberg.
Some of the lawyers also argue
further that British law fixes the liabil
ity of the owner because the Titanic
carried the British flag and that the
Supreme Court should so hold.
Should the British law be appllc
able, the American court would have to
determine whether it shall proceed to
take Jurisdiction of the claims and en
force the British laws or whether the
claimants must sue in England. In
either case it is said a prolonged con
test would result.
Should it be found that the disaster
occurred without the owners' fault or
privity, the damage procurable by the
claimants under British law, it is said,
would be about $3,000,000. Should it be
held the disaster occurred with the
owners' fault or privity it would be
liable for full damages, now claimed
to be about $13,000,000.
BAIL THAW'S NEXT PLAN
MORE TIME TO PRJSPARB BRIEF
ASKED BY LAWYER,
Flndlnn: of New Hampshire Commission
Will Stop Litigation, Says At
torney for the Prisoner.
CONCORD, N. H.,'Jan. 12. Harry K.
Thaw, elated by the report of the
Federal Court commission that his re
lease on ball would not endanger pub
lic safety, remained in his apartments
at a local hotel today, receiving mes
sages of congratulations and planning
a series of visits within the state in
event Federal Judge Aldrich allows
him his freedom under bonds.
An immediate hearing on the sub
ject of releasing Thaw on bail was
asked in a petition filed In the United
States District Court today by Merrily
Shurtleff, one of Thaw's counsel. The
petition also asks for further time to
prepare Thaw's brief to fight extradition.
The brief of Attorney-General Car-
mody, of New York, on the subject of
Thaw s extradition also was filed to
day. In it Mr. Carmody contends that
the request of New York for Thaw's
extradition- should have been granted
and that Thaw's test of the constitu
tionality of his rights should have
come in an appeal from the decision of
the court in New York in the event
that he was found guilty there on
& charge of conspiracy.
William Travers Jerome, special at
torney for New York State in its ef
forts to bring Thaw back to Matteawan,
said today that the action of the New
Hampshire commission in - finding
Thaw sane will not affect the main
issue.

GERMAN SAYS HE DID NOT KILL
WIFE, FATHER AND CHILDREN.
Druggist-Fencing Master Admits He
Gave Poison to Insured Former
Wife as Beauty Potion.
FRANKFORT-ON-MAIN, Jan. 12.
The plea of "not guilty" was entered
today by Carl Hopf, druggist and fenc
ing master, when brought up for trial
charged with killing his two children,
his father and his first wife by admin
istering poison and with attempting to
commit similar crimes on his second
and third wives and another person.
The accused admitted today that he
had given a poisonous drug to his
three successive wives, ostensibly as a
means of improving their looks. Td his
third wife he had also given fever
germs, but she escaped death owing to
the vigilance of her doctor.
The three women had been insured
byJ the prisoner for $5000, $7500 and
$20,000 respectively, and each of them
fell seriously ill within a year after
her marriage.

presence of tho poison in the bodies
of his victims. His wives, he said, had
taken it as an ingredient in a beauty
compound and he had Injected tho drug
into the bodies of his children In order
to embalm them.
Among the germs found In the pos
session of the prisoner were those of
typhoid, cholera, puerperal fever and

GOTIRKOR REFUSES CLEMENCY TO
NOTED MONEY LENDER.
Glynn Says Millionaires and Paupers
Should Be Treated Alike, Turning
Down Prisoner's Proposition.
ALBANY, N. Y., Jan. 12 Governor
Glynn finally today refused to pardon
D. H. Tolman, the convicted New York
money lender.
District Attorney Whitman refused
to say that he favored an absolute par
don for Tolman. The Governor requires
the indorsement of the trial Judge and
the prosecutor in every case where he
exercises clemency.
The Governor said the amount of in
debtedness which would be cancelled
by the notes Tolman promised to de
stroy if released and the number of
people who would be benefited would
be based on guess work Tolman's of
fer of a bond as a guarantee of his sin
cerity was worthless, added the "Gov
ernor "The acceptance of such proposition
would open the way for men of means
to procure a pardon that is not open
to poor men," he said. T know of no
reason why a millionaire criminal
should be treated any differently than
a pauper criminal."

Hollins Gillnian Declares That Un
healthy Children Are Deserving
of ' Greatest Attention . but
Views of Others Differ.
BATTLE CREEK, Mich.. Jan. 12.
"The cause of the declining birth
rate," and "segregation" were two of
the subjects taken up today at the
closing sessions of the first National
conference on race betterment. Eugenic
selection of healthy mothers and pro
vision for the cost of bearing and rear.
Ing children should be made if the. race
is to survive, according to Dr. J. Mc
Keen CattelL of Columbia University.
The restriction of the propagation of
feeble-minded persons is necessary if
the production of defective delinquents
Is to be avoided, declared Hastings H.
Hart, of New York.

Parents Total Abstainers.
It was said that the winners of the
awards were particularly perfect in
physique and mentality. The parents
of these children live in Battle Creek.
The father of the boy is a taxicab
driver and the father of the girl is
engaged in the optical business.. Both
fathers are abstainers, it was an
nounced, from tobacco and alcohol.
New methods in prize baby contests
were urged by Rollins Gillman, head
worker of the University Settlement
Society of New York In addressing the
conference Today.
"The healthiest or prize winning
babies," he said, "are of less Immediate
Importance to the society of tomor
row than the babies who are unable
through lack of health to win prizes.
The unhealthiest are the ones In which
we should take most interest.
"If the contest is to consist of finding
a physically fit baby, to single out one
and to give its parents the proud dis
tinction of. bearing such a prodigy and
incidentally arousing bad blood in the
parents of the baby who came so near
winning but didn't, then I say let us
have few contests. As a social worker
I am more interested in the possibility
of imperfect babies growing up into
fairly fit physical manhood and woman
hood than in searching out a physi
cally perfect baby who may not so
grow up, but above all, I am interested
in having a perfect or Imperfect baby
grown up Into moral and spiritual fit
ness for parenthood and citizenship.
Many View Points Given.
"To make a baby health contest of
more than passing importance it should
be followed by two distinct examina
tions, one Into the environment and
another into the possible inheritance
that the baby is to fall heir to."
The speaker took up the interna
tional scope of race betterment also.
Scientific, phases of eugenics furnished
a large part of the discussion during
the day.
Dr. C. B. Davenport, director of the
Carnegie station of experimental evolu
tion at Cold Spring Harbor, N. Y., urged
that a broader official study be given
the subject of producing better men and
women. Instead of so much study for
the protection and care of defective
types.
Dr. Maynard M. Metcalf, of Oberlin
College, expressed the opinion that the
only certain improvement of the race
would eeme through proper breeding
and culture.
Walter Wilcox, of Cornell University,
spoke on the subject of "differential
fecundity." A paper on "The Import
ance of Hygiene for Eugenics," by
Irving Fisher, of Yale, was read at the
meeting. te author being unable to
attend the conference.

ALASKA ROAD BILL UP
CHAMBERLAIN WANTS GOVERN
MENT TO BUILD LI-ES 1ST NORTH.
Senator Borah Advocated Federal Con
trol of Coal Mines Portions of
Measure Meet Opposition.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12. Debate on
the Alaskan Government railroad bill
began in the Senate today with the
prospect of occupying many sessions
before final action. Senator Chamber
lain, or Oregon, in charge of the meas
ure, spoke at length, reading from the
reports of Government experts sent into
the territory to study its possibilities
and characterizing the purchase of Alas
ka from Russia as the greatest business
arrangement in which the United States
had ever engaged.
Reciting statistics on Alaska's miner,
erals and fisheries to show the vast
commerce lying isolated and virtually
impossible of development nnSer pres
ent conditions. Senator Chamberlain
said the present railroads there did lit
tle or -nothing to aid the territory as
a whole because they were constructed
to serve the ends of private Interests.
Alaska, today, he declared, is a country
for rich men only.
The Senator read reports on climatic
conditions of the territory and its ag
ricultural possibilities. When he
touched on the coal land leasing feature
of the bill. Senator Borah of Idaho took
exception to a statement that leasing
would stimulate competition. He advo
cated Government development and op
eration of coal mines in Alaska. He
Insisted that unless this was done the
ultimate consumer will-not benefit. For,
he maintained, the leasing system per
mits monopoly as readily as does out
right ownership of coal lands.
Senators Cummins and Reed took
part In the discussion, which indicated
that this portion of the bill would meet
with considerable opposition.
Senator Cummins said that If the
Government could not furnish coal In
any other way at a better price than
the consumer is now compelled to pay.
It should mine the Alaska coal as well
as haul it.
