Chicago, April 2.—F. A. Holbrook, recently indicted by the federal grand jury =25 the chief promoter of an un- lawful combination in school and | church furniture, said to be operating i In restraint of trade, entered a plea of | guilty before Judge Landis in the United States court. Sentence was deferred. ) Thirteen manufacturing companies which were indicted at the same time with Holbrook entered pleas of nolo contendre. The E. P. Staford Manu- facturing company of Chicago did not plead, but its representative will file a special demurrer and a motion will he entered to quash the indictment found against it. Holbrook, who was the only individ- ual indicted, was the agent in Chicago and chairman of the Prudential club, which was said to have been organ- ized for the purpose of preventing competition in the sale of church and school furniture in the United States. It was expected by the attorneys for the government that the Staford company would also enter a plea of nolo contendre and its request to en- ter a special demurrer and a motion to quash the indictment was a sur- prise. Permission to file was given by the court. ImAY NoT Go 'TO PHILIPPINES. Taft Urged to Stay Home and Make Fight for Presidency. ‘Washington, April 2—Secretary Taft may abandon his proposed trip to the Philippines this fall. His polit- ical backers and close advisers in ‘Washington will urge him to forego this icng journey and stay here and make a fight for the presidential nom- inatiou. Whether the secretary will give up his trip remains to be seen. Mr. Taft’s friends are thoroughly aroused and propose to push his presidential boom with all the vigor at their com- mand.

JURY REQUESTS ADDITIONAL PAY MEMBERS PETITION JUDGE FITZ- GERALD TO ALLOW THEM §5 A DAY FOR SERVICE. o New York, April 2.—When Mrs. | Evelyn Thaw made her daily visit to her husband in the Tombs she was met by a process server who handed her a subpoena directing her to ap- pear before the lunacy commission. Mrs. Thaw apparently had not antici- pated this move and she appeared very much disturbed when the nature of the paper was made known to her. “Do they expect me to testify against my husband?” she asked. She was told that her presence probably was desired merely as a mat- 1 ter of routine, but this did not seem to assure her. District Attorney Je- rome declined to make known his pur- pose in calling Mrs. Thaw before the commission. ‘The members of the Thaw jury have drawn up a petition to Justice Fitz- gerald asking him to allow them §5 a day for jury service instead of the customary allowance of $2 a day. Their action is based on an instance in which the court made a similar in- | crease in the jury’s allowance after the case had been extended to an un- usual length. The Thaw jury reported to Justice Fitzgerald at 10:30 a. m. and were excused until Thursday morning. THAW’S ATTORNEYS REST. Will Offer No Further Testimony in Lunacy Hearing. New York, April 2.—Counsel for Harry K. Thaw announce that the Thaw side rests so_far as further tes- timony by their side is concerned be- fore the lunacy commission. The de- fense believes that this will help to bring this hearing to a close shortly and that the trial, delayed for more than a week by the movement to de- termine Thaw’s sanity at the present time, can he immediately resumed. The defense assumes, of course, that the commiszion will find that Thaw is now sane. In fact, they are supreme- ly confident of such an outcome, has- ing their opinion on the splendid shewing Thaw is said to have made when questioned by the commission- ers. District Attorney Jerome does not share the opinicn of the defense that the commission will conclude its hear- ing in another day. He said the de- fense was assuming too much and ex- pressed the belief that several days would elapse before the commission reported. Mr. Jerome believes that the commission will hear his alienists and he hopes, besides, that the testi- mony of Dr. Allan McLane Hamilton will be admitted. There is no doubt that the hearing- will be prolonged if the state’s alienists are allowed to testify as fully as Mr. Jerome wishes them to de. hut the defense’s lawyers believe that they will only be permit- ted to tell what they think of Thaw’s present condition and facts of the dis- tant past, on which most of their con- clusions are base(l will be eliminated. COLLISION OF FREIGHTS. Six Trainmen Kiiled in Wreck Near Fort Worth, Tex. Fort Worth, Tex., April 2.—8ix train- men were killed in a headon collision between two freight trains on the Missouri, Kansas and Texas railroad six miles south of here. The dead are: Engineer Wooden and Fireman Hines of the southbound train, Engi- neer Caldwell and Fireman Wallace of the northbound train and two brakemen, names not known. The collision occurred while both trains were running at a high speed. Fire broke out immediately in the wreckage and the two brakemen were cremated Dbefore assistance could reach them. Over 300 head of cattle were burned and eight cars of mer- chandise destroyed. Failure of the northbound train to receive an order is said to be respon- sible for the wreck. NO GAMBLING IN MONTANA. State Law Goes Into Effect and Will Be Enforced. Helena, Mont., April 2—The anti- gambling law became effective Mon- day and all games were closed throughout the state, even the slot machines. The attorney general has issued instructions that the law must be strictly enforced and as it provides for summary dismissal all officials where games are permitted to con- tinue there is every reason to believe it will be observed. The law also pro- vides for the recovery of losses either by loser or relatives. This is the first time since 1863 that public gambling has not been available to those desir- ing to take the risk. Haywood Trial Set for May 9.

NO RESULTS EXPECTED. Agrarian Problem Taken Up by Rus- sian Lower House. St. Petersburg, April 2.—The discus- sion of the agrarian problem, to which the first Russian parliament almost entirely devoted its legislative activ- ity, began in the lower house during the day. Over 100 speakers imme- diately signified their intention of par- ticipating in the debate, to which, ac- cording to the plans of the parlia- mentary leaders, only one day per | week will be devoted. The question I considered to be of far less impor- Rheumatism Will Go.

HOPES FOR AGREEMENT CHAIRMAN KNAPP SAYS THREAT- ENED RAILROAD STRIKE MAY STILL BE AVERTED. LITTLE CHANGE IN THE SITUATION CONFERENCES OF PARTIES IN- TERESTED CONTINUE TO BE HELD IN CHICAGO. Chicago, April 2.—The situation in the controversy between the Western railroads and the trainmen and con- ductors has not materially altered. Another serles of conferences was held during the day in which Chair- man Knapp of the Interstate com- merce commission and Secretary Neill of the United States labor commis- sion were active participants. The report circulated that a large number of the members of the two organizations are not in favor of a strike, although denied by the leaders of the trainmen and conductors, led both Chairman Knapp and Mr. Neill to believe that terms satisfactory to both sides may ultimately be reached. Chairman Knapp said: “There Is nothing that I can say now and I will not have anything to say until the matter has been definite- tance ncw than it was last Year Neither the Constitutional Democrats nor the Seeialists have much expecta- tion of ving at practical results during the life of the present parlia- ment. They are convinced that any measure involving the compulsory ex- propri of lands, which is the basic Jmncwa! of all the laboral solutions, will immediately be vetoed by the em- peror and te regarded by the cabinet as a justifcation for the dissolution of parliament. The house, however, was forced fo hegin the discussion of the a an problem as a concession to the peasant constituents of many of the members. Prince Vassilchikoff, minister of ag- riculture, speaking In behalf of the cabinet, outlined the government’s agrarian programme, laying down as an ultimatum the maintenance of the principle of the inviolability of pri- vate property. The ex-propriation of land, he added, was permissible only in exceptional cases. With Perry on Memorable Trip. Norfolk. Va., April 2.—Charles H.

The situation is not hopeless and I feel encouraged, but that is all that I can say now. I do not mean that an agreement is cer- tain, but that something may yet be done.” EMPLOYES OPPOSED TO.STRIKE. Rallroads Claim to Have Taken a Se- cret Canvass. Chicago, April 2—Railroads have announced a secret canvass just com- pleted among their employes showing a strong sentiment against calling a big strike and in favor of accepting the wage offer of the roads. The an- nouncement was made to the federal commissioners who are attempting to bring about a settlement of the dis- pute. It may have an important bear- ing on the peace negotiations. Following this move of the railroads a report was spread that leaders of the unions were preparing to make several concessions. It was said the demard for a nine-hour day may be abandoned and that the men also may decide to take less than the 12 per cent advance in pay they have de- manded. Grand Chief Garretson of the con- ductors would not confirm the report. Grand Chief Morrissey of the train- men refused to declare himself any further than to assert that the “situa- tion had not changed materially.” Tug Sunk by Ferryboat.
