Judge Holds That Alleged
Libel Refers To State
Politics
BY BOND P. OEDDES.
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
Snrncuse. X. Y., May 11. Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt was balked today
in his ambition to get before the jury,
in William Barnes $50,000 libel suit
against him, the details of alleged vice
and grnft in Albany, the home of
Barnes, whom Roosevelt called a politi
cal boss.
Attorney for Barnes objected to this
line of testimony on tho ground that
it was heresay and immaterial. Aftor
having heard arguments from both
sides, Justice Andrews excluded the
evdience.
Roosevelt answered a few perfunctory
questions put by his own counsel and
then turned expectantly to Attorney
Ivins for cross-examination.
"I don't care to have anything fur
ther to do with Roosevelt," sneered
Ivins, in declining to question the ex
president. In milking his ruling, Justice An
drews said the alleged libel referred
solely to stute, and not local corruption,
and that any facts that Roosevelt knew
of with regurd to Albnny affairs was
immaterial. During a discussion in the
judge's chambers the Roosevelt lawyers
contended that Roosevelt 's charges
against Barnes meant that Barnes was
purty to the alleged Albany graft by
having the members of his "machine'
employed in gambling houses tbero.
During the morning session of the
court Justice Andrews asked tho jury if
it hid reud any newspapers of the trial
or talked to anyone about it. He re
ceived a general denial, and again
warned the jurors to abstain from
reading about or discussing the proceedings.

Head Of Household Is Too
Dumb To Handle Finances
Says W. H. Pierce
Washington, May li. "The average
laboring ma n is too dumb to know wliut
he is earning. It's his wile who runs
things. '
W. II. I'ierce, organizer of tho Broth
erhood (if Federated Railway Kmployes,
made this statement today to Frank I.
Walsh, cliainiiaii of the I'niled States
commission on industrial relations,
which is investigating the conditions of
railroad workers.
A iiiird rap was given the I'ennsyl
vauia railroad during the day's session
bv an Altorna, I'n., clergyman, who tes
tified that the Pennsylvania 's greatest
asset was the not "the lovaltv and ef
ficiency" of iti employes, as Vice I'res
ideal. Atterliury said, but it is "the
unorganized men, who are paid less
than the union scale, and who can be
used to keep the organized men whip
ped into line." He declared that boards
of trade uiui other influences were used
by the I'ennsylvaiiia to crush labor
iinr. eineiits.
When nslied by (hnirioan Walsh lo
tell his opinion of mediation and arbi
tration of labor questions, S, ('. Long,
geni'ial inmiager of the I'i'iiiisylvaiiia,
said: "If you had as many labor dif
(lenities as wo have hut you would
welcome any kind of mediatiun good,
Pad or indil I eieiit. 1 hope that, as a
result of your el forts. siMiiething hotter
than that will be achieved. If vou
could provide ns with a high class
mediation hour. I, we would welcome it
very much."
Long submitted a bonl.let treating of
the "History of Labor Troiililc in
I', iinsylvania," which gives the cor
poiations' view of it. I.'n.ler cross
Mi in i lint inn. he admitted that the
booklet wn written bv Ivy I , press
agent of the rcnusyivauia railroad,
