ANTHRACITE ROADS
WIN VINDICATION
Federal Court Finds No Evi
dence of Unlawful League
, to Restrain Trade.
GOVERNMENT LOSES SUIT
Reading Company Held Xot to
Bate Violated Commodities Clause
of Hepburn Act; Jersey Central
Status Is Xot Disturbed.
. PHILADELPHIA, July 4. The United
6tatea Court for the Eastern district
of Pennsylvania decided Saturday that
the Reading group of corporations, the
Central Railroad Company of New Jer.
sey, the Lehigh Coal & Navigation
Company and subsidiary and allied
companies are not leagued together In
an unlawful combination and therefore
do not unduly restrain commerce in
the production, sale or transportation
of anthracite.
The Federal Government. which
brought the suit nearly two years ago
to dismember the alleged combination
into separate units and to nullify agree
ments and leases, wins a point in that
the court suggested that the Lehigh
& Wilkesbarre Coal Company be di
vorced from the Jersey Central Rail
road. . Court Makes Suggestions.
As the subject of this particular
separation was not urged in the trial
of the case, the court suggested it for
the consideration of counsel, when the
scope of the decree comes to be de
termined. The Reading ownership of
the Jersey Central Railroad is not dis
turbed. The court decided that there was no
vinlatlnn Yiv tha Uainr fnmnnnlAII of
the commodities clause of the Hepburnq
railroad act. which prohibits a railroad
from transporting any commodity in
which it has an interest.
The suit Is one of the most Important
the Government has brought to break
up what it declares to be an Illegal
combination in the anthracite business.
League to Control Fuel Charged.
The Government's suit against the
Reading road was the outgrowth of a
general suit it filed In 1907 against all
the anthracite coal roads. The charge
of conspiracy therein made was not sus
tained by the Supreme Court, but the
Government won two material points.
It thereupon decided on individual ac
tions against many railroad companies,
of which the Reading was the chief.
The Government asked for the disso
lution of what was declared to be a
combination of competitors in violation
of the Sherman anti-trust law.
It was alleged that this combination
was held together by the Reading Com
pany, which had a capital of $275,
000,000. It was alleged that the companies
were leagued together so that they
controlled more than 63 per cent of the
unmined coal deposits; that they were
mining about 26 per cent of the annual
production and their tenants 3 per cent
additional, and that the railroads named
were transporting about 33 per cent of
the total production. The Government
further maintained that, according to
the "generally accepted calculations of
geologists and mining engineers," the
coal areas controlled by the alleged
combination would outlast by many
years those of any competitor.

MILITANT URGES SUFFRAGE
Miss Arnold Declares Spirit of the
x South. Rules Democrats.
"The spirit of the South is against
woman suffrage and when the Demo
cratic tarty is in power the Govern-
ment is ruled by the spirit of the
South." This assertion was- made by
Miss Virginia C. Arnold, who spoke on
the "Greatest Need of the Home To
day" at the meeting of the Single Tax
League last night at the library. The
greatest need she construed to be wo
man suffrage. -
A. D. Cridge. speaking on the same
subject, predicted that it would only
be necessary to wait until one or two
more states In the Union secured wo
man suffrage to secure National suf
frage. "I believe," he said, "'that when that
time comes the women will not need
to wait until an amendment to the
Constitution has been secured, but that
the politicians will discover that they
have always had a right to vote under
the Constitution."
Replying to one speaker, D. Holcomb.
who expressed the fear that the woman
suffragists would use President's Wil
son's opposition to the enfranchisement
of women as a basis for opposing and
defeating him in the coming election.
W. L. Glass said that it would be a
good thing if the women could defeat
Wilson on that ground. -
"If they showed, they were able to
do it we would get woman suffrage
the next time," he said.
Mrs. Laura C. Little expressed the be
lief that the greatest need of the home
today was not woman suffrage but the
passage of an Initiative bill for prohi
bition of compulsary vaccination. She
ended her remarks by reading a poem
entitled: "He Has Wheels In His Head."

PLATONIC WIFE OPPOSED
Physician Charges Marriage Vows
Xever Consummated.
NEW YORK. June 2S. In opposing
his wife's plea for alimony In her sepa
ration. Dr. Charles E- Weber, a Brook
lyn physician, presented an affidavit to
Supreme Court Justice Shearn saying
the marriage performed In 1911 had
never been consummated.
His wife. 'Anna E. Weber, he averred,
did net wish children until she was
absolutely sure she could "properly
support them."
She feared motherhood, he said, and
suggested they live in a state of Pla
tonic friendship. In which "mutual love
and affection and caresses would be
more than sufficient."
On one occasion, when her father
protested against her ideas, says the
affidavit, Mrs. Weber asked him if he
would give a guarantee to support her
children, and the father slapped her
face.
The doctor further says that after
they had lived apart for a year a prop
osition was made that they either live
together as before or that he support
her while she lived apart from him.
Otherwise he says she threatened to go
Into court and ruin Ms reputation.
When be proposed they live together
as man' and wife she laughed at him,
he says.
Mrs. Weber in court denied she
feared, any of the duties of a wife, and
says the failure to consummate the
marriage was entirely due to the doc
tor. VALLEY FOLK CELEBRATE

"I knew Mr. McCormlck only three
months before we were married. I had
been married before and It wasn't a
success. I wanted my next marriage
to be a success, and to have everything
right from the start. I determined to
have a splendid wedding breakfast.
"I had a gross Income of only $300
a month, and was at my wit's end to
know how to give the magnificent
wedding breakfast I desired until 1
learned that I could get money ad
vanced on my Income.- After making
allowance for all my other necessary
expenses. I figured out that by pledg
ing my income for three years I would
have enough to give the proper wed
ding breakfast and trousseau and I
did so. If I do say it myself. It was a
breakfast of which anybody might have
been proud.
Duncan L. Busby, father of Mrs. Mc
Cormlck. a lawyer with offices In Phlla

MAN LONG SUBMERGED
I.NVKXTOR REMAINS I BOX. AIR
TIGHT, seven' norm.
Rrnsrlubla Experiment With Ckea
Irate for Pnrlfytas; Air May Preve
f Greet Beaett.
PHILADELPHIA. June 26. .With a
little suitcase full of chemicals, for
which nations may some time bid for
tunes. William S. Bond, a 28-year-old
chemist of Wilmington, Del. climbed
Into a 96 cubic foot air-tight box and
allowed himself to be submerged Into
a tank of water for more than seven
hours, at- the end of which time he
emerged In good condition.
Professor Abraham Henwood. In
structor In chemistry at the Drexel
Institute, who witnessed Bond's experi
ment, said that In his opinion a man
could stay in the box approximately
lour nours without losing conscious
ness. The experiment which took place in
the Mechanical Engineering Labora
tory of the Drexel Institute, and
which was witnessed by Captain Lloyd
Bankson. of the Bureau of Naval Con
struction of Cramps Shipyard: Lieu
tenant D. N. Fedotoff. the Junior naval
attache of the Russian Embassy, and
Abraham lien wood, professor of
chemistry of the Drexel Institute, was
to demonstrate the power of Bond's
discovery to purify air by the absorp
tion of poisonous gases thrown off by
the lungs. According to Captain Bank
son, such a discovery. If entirely ap
plicable, would be of Immense value
in purifying the air In submarines and
allowing them to stay submerged for
long time.
The compartment In which Bond ate.
worked, read and sweated for almost
eight hours was made of thick pine
boards rendered absolutely airtight.
This was placed In a tank of water:
aiso made of boards which reached
half way up the outside of the com
partment. The upper part of the lat
ter was surrounded and topped with
an outer casing like the outer shell
-f a thermos bottle, except that the
intervening space was filled with
water. On top of the compartment was
a manhole, the lid of which win screwed
tight after Bond had entered. In this
lid was a small window. The advan
tage of this extraordinary contrivance
which seemed to tickle Captain Bank
son was to diminish the pressure of
the water on the outside of the tarvk.
At 10 o'clock Bond, clad in a bathing
suit and a pair of rubbers, climbed
into this compartment with his pre
cious suitcase, lunch, supper, apparatus
and a current magazine. A minute
later he was sealed in and water was
run over the. top of the manhole lid.
Inside of the compartment there was
an electric light, a telephone and an
electrlo fan, besides the apparatus,
which consisted of four plates such as
can be bought at any notion store.
Bond dissolved some of his Invention
on these plates and allowed the fan
to circulate the Impure air over the
surface of the solution. The solution
took up the carbon dioxide and thus
purified the air.
Every half hour his friends called
him up on the telephone or climbed to
tne top of the box to gase at him
through the window. Then at times
they drew out samples of the air by
a rubber tube and tested it for the
percentage of carbon dioxide.
Thing were going on finely, until
suddenly at 1 o'clock the light went
out. The bell on the outside rang and
some one took up the receiver, but
could hear nothing. For a moment
no one knew what to do. They were
about to drain off the mater and open
up the apparatus when Bond rung
several times from the inside. This
let his friends know that he was all
right.

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. July 1. One-cent letter postage
on local mall Is advooated by Repre
sentative Dill, of Spokane, the new
Democratic member of the Washing
ton delegation. Mr. Dill recently spent
some time In Washington on business
before the departments, and while here
looked Into the postal question. As a
result of what be learned, he belelved
the Government could well afford to
cut Its letter postage In half. Insofar
as strictly local mail Is concerned.
"During my stay In Washington."
said Mr. Dill. "I have learned that a
proposition will be pushed at the next
session- of Congress to reduce the rate
of postage on sealed letters from t
rents to 1 rent, when such letters are
for delivery In the same towns or cities
in which they are mailed. I believe
this la a meritorious proposition, and
one that should receive the early at
tention of Congress.
"Experts Inform me that the Gov
ernment nets an enormous profit on
local delivery letters, and if such Is
the case, I can see no reason why a
reduction should not be made In the
rate. There seems to be no doubt but
what such a reduction In the rate
would result In an enormous Increase
In the volume of mall, thereby causing
no material. If any, loss In the rev
enues. "Huch legislation would be especially
valuable to local merchants In devel
oping new business. The country is
growing more prosperous each dsy.
and a cheaper drop-letter postage
would. In my opinion, aid in making
It more prosperous than It has ever
been."

SALT LAKE, t.'tah. June S. "Ttl"
Rlckard Is In town from South Amer

"I have always liked Kelt Lake City,

chatting- in the office of former Sena
tor Thomas Kearns in the Kearnt
building. . "I mean that," continued
-Tex.'
Flht promotions are a thins; of the

behind him when he left Nevada for
South America, after the Jef fries-Johnson
fight. He did not know the result
of the Johnson-Wlllard flcht until he
reached New York from Buenos A) res
last week.
"I haven't followed sporting; events
much since I left the West. he said. "I
was considerably surprised to bear that
Johnson had been beaten by Wlllard.
I didn't think Wlllard could do It."
Arareailna Woaaerfel Casmtrr.
Tex" says It sure seems good to be
back In the West acaln. It eels lone
some on the Arcenuna "cattle planta
tion." There are few Americans In
Argentina, but Tex" allows that It Is
a marvelous country and that It Is ex
porting more beef and sraln to Eu
rope than tte Veiled States.
The former Westerner does sot ad
vise Americana to Invade South Amer
ica, however, unless they have plenty
of money. It Is no place for a poor
man lo ro. Continuing on the sub
ject. Mr. Kickard sakl:
"Argentlna Is s'.l right far (he In
vestor, but the American wage-earner
would have a hard time of It- The
wages paid are not high enoncli to In
terest Americana 1 brought some
American cowboys down there to act
as foremen on my ranch. I paid them
better money than they were making
here In the West, but they dldn t stsy.
It got too lonesome for them. We
have great cattle ranches, though, and
since the war we have been getting
excellent prices.
Wmr Revives Basteewa.
The war baa revived business for
South America. Times were quiet Just
before that.
"Even in the cities there are few
Americans. An American club has
Just been organised In Buenos Ayrea
but It only has a membership of
about SO.
"Europe will always be the greatest
trader with South. America, but the
L'nited States Is doing more business
with Argentina. Urugusy. Paraguay and
Brazil since the war broke out. These
countries are buying all kinds of things
In the United States, particularly the
goods formerly purchased In Oermany.
Ono of the dlfflcult.es at the present
tlma however. Is the shortage of steam
ers between the United Stales and South
American porta All the stuff that
has been bought here can't be shipped.
' Einh to Iteeela Trade.
The United States will establish
some permanent trade' with Houth
America through the war. but I thtnk
that the bulk f It will go back to
Europe when the trouble la over. You
see. European capital Is heavily inter
ested there, and the British, the Ger
mans and the French are t-ere them
selves In'larpe numbers. They have
been doing business with . the Bouth
Americana for years, and It Is natural
that they should continue.- In some
lines, such as agricultural machinery
and so on. we lead, though."
Mr. Rlckard said his South American

canaries added their beautiful trills

tempted In a Washington church,
proved eutlrely successful. The golden
songsters kept absolutely stilt during
the services until the muslo started,
then they bitrat forth In song. The
Idea was sugaested by the well-known

This announcement .will carry more
weight than Is apparent on the surface.,
since the Democratic party has betn di
vided, two or three times over efforta
to pardon Youtsey, and petitions have,
been put In circulation, principally by
women, asking the States Prison Com
mission to pardon him.
Youtsey Is only one out of more than
0 men arrested for complicity In the
Goebel murder. Caleb Powers and
James Howard, who were alleged to be
most concerned, were pardoned by Got
ernor Wilson. Republican, several years
ago.
As Youtsey confessed to his part In t he
crime. Democrat contend he should be
pardoned.
Mr. Johnson offers to withdraw from
the race If the Republican or Demo
cratic parly puts a state-wide plank
in Its platform.
