From that time on she devoted herself mainly to the cause of woman's suffrage. She was an active abolitionist, and from 1856 to the time of the abolition of slav- ery gave much of her time to that work, joining Mrs. Elizibeth Cady Stanton In circulating petitions throughout the coun- asking Congress, to abolish slavery easure. She was the organizer y of the Women's National | Loyal League during the war, and did much good work for the cause of the 1 Union. | After the close of the war she again made “‘woman’s suffrage” her chief aim |in life. In 1868 she founded a weekly | paper, The Revolution, in New York in advocacy of that cause, which she ran for two years and a half at a loss of some $10,000. In 1869, with Mrs. Stanton, she organ- ized the Woman's Suffrage Association, of which she was honorary president at the time of her death. One of the most important events of her life was her arrest and fine for flle- gal voting at the Presidential election of | 1572 She gave bond to escape imprison- ment, but the fine was never paid, the | case being allowed to drop. BENEFACTOR OF WOMEN. In 1881, with Mrs. Stanton and Mrs. Ma- tilda Gage, she published ‘“The History of Woman's Suffrage.” For nearly fifty years she was before the country as an advocate for reform, and through her work and influence great changes have been made in the condition of women of this country and wider fields; of employ- ment opened to them. In nearly half the States women are | voting upon school questions, and in two, Kansas and Michigan, at municipal elec- tions, and in some Western States on all questions. This Miss Anthony hoped to secure for women in every State in the Union an equal voice with men. Up to the very last she kept up her work and never relinquished her respog- sibilities. Inflexible and exacting as regarded her- self, she was widely charitable in her judgments of others. Miss Anthony led the campaign in Cali- fornia a few years ago to secure the bal- lot for her sex, and though defeated she earned the high personal regard of the thousands who heard her masterly ad- dresses. i — WILL ERECT A POWER PLANT ON BANKS OF ALDER CREEK Mendocino Electrician Behind Scheme to Furnish Northera Towns ‘With Light, UKIAH, March 12.—Perry Stanley, a Mendocino electrician, has bonded the water right of Alder Cre€k,.near Point Arena, and the Stanley Electric Light and Power Compapy intends putting up and brown—positively the ia plant at once.

Moyer, president of the Western Federation of Miners; Wil- Mlam D. Haywood, secretary of the West- ern Federation, and George A. Pettibone. One of these communications was sent by & committee of the Central Labor Union of Evansville, Ind., of which W. L. Jans is'seeretary, The communication consists of resolutions and the committee states that they are submitted “‘for the purpose of disabusing your mind of the idea that unionism is anarchy.” The resolutions are moderate in tone, but in some measure reflect the idea so widely disseminated that the prosecution of these men is in pursuance of @ con- spiracy. The Governor and prosecutors are asked to weigh the confessions care- fully and to use thelr best efforts to se- cure a fair and impartial trial for the accused men. The resolutions ask that the men be given full opportunity to prove that the confessions “are trumped up evidence, solicited by rich corporations for the sole purpose of disrupting union- ism in the’Western States, and probably to put te death two American citizens that had not done anything but act as officials of the Western Federation of Miners.” | In view of the misconception of the at- | titude of the State that seems to be so widely prevalent among laboring men, the Governor has sent a reply to the Evans- ville resolutions, in which he has set forth the purpose of ‘the State very care- tully. NO IMMUNITY PROMISED. The Governor sets forth the belief that the members of the Evansville union have been misinformed, for he cannot believe that they would countenance as sassination. Proceeding, he states- that no mine owners, no association of mine owners, or any corporation of a private nature, wealthy or othérwise, has had anything to do with the work of securing body but State-employed detectives in the case. The facts of the murder of ex- | Governor Steunenberg are given briefly, and the arrest of Harty Orchard and the In 1849 she began to speak In public for | | woman ad v | matntatnea | WOMman had little power to change the details of the employment of James McParland, the detective manager, are explained. | | The statement says that McParland is | not to receive any reward other than his | | stipulated fee and expenses. He was em- | ployed solely to get at the truth. As to | the confession secured from Orchard, the | letter states that McParland visited him, | informed him who he was, and asked | Orchard to tell the truth about the mat- ter. No promise of any kind was made. Orchard fully expects to pay the penalty for the crime which he has confessed. The letter continues: He told a story of cohspiracy and murder against ex-Governor ‘Steunenberg so revoiting in every detall @s to be almost unbellevable. He xave descriptions of other crimes in which he had been interested, or of which he had | heard, and from these 'descriptions and from | other ‘data turnished by Orchard the State had | been enabled to collect a mass of evience o strong that 1 was compelled by my oath of of- fice and by my feelings as a man and a citi- | zen to ask for the arrest and extradition of Moyer, Haywood and Pettibone. FAIR TRIAL ASSURED. It is further stated that the confession from Adams was secured in the same manner, no hope of mmunity being held out to him. These men confess against themselves as well as against others, the Governor points out, and without prom- ises of clemency. They tell what appears to be the blunt. truth, which indicates that thé men accused were implicated in | @ conspiracy to commit murder. The let- ter continues: If the storles are true you amd the members | of your union will certainly agree with me | thai no punishment under the law is too se- | vere to be meted out to the gulity men. Their | guilt or thelr innocence cannot be said to have | any bearing upon the rights or privileges of | union labor. Labor organizations are vitally interested in this case. 1f the men now ac- cused are guilty of murder they should be ccndemned by all labor organizations in the world, If they are innocent the State of Tdaho JL do its dety tn righting the wrong done them. The Governor expresses his belief in unjonism, saying he knows the conditions and reward of labor have been wonder- fully improved through the instrumen- tality of labor organizations. Further, he expresses the opinion that labor organiza- tions should be the first to condemn wrong. Closing he says: 1 want to assure your union that the accused men shall fair and impartial trial. The fairness of spirit In which you addressed me has induced this lengthy epistle. Pl HABEAS CORPUS DENIED. Moyer, Haywood and Pettibone Lowe the . First Point, BOISE, Idaho, March 12—The mo- tion of the prosecution in the habeas corpus proceedings in the Steunenberg murder case to strike from the an- swer of the Western Federation of Min- ers’ leaders all reference to Messrs.

NBW YORK, March 12.—Colonel Wil- llam Dalton Mann, editor of Town Top- ics, was today indicted for perjury by the Grand Jury on charges growing out of the trial of Norman Hapgood, editor of Collier's Weekly, for criminal libel. He was held-in $1500 bail and will plead on March 20, 4 The action of the Grand Jury came un- expectedly and there was vociferous and vigorous protest from Charles L. Craig, attorney for Colonel Mann, against its re- ception by Judge O'Sullivan. He argued that at the present time a hearing was under way in a magistrate's “court and that the proceedings there had been dis- regarded and held In contempt by the Grand Jury through its action, He sald that until the magistrate proceedings had been concluded the Grand Jury had no right to interfere. District Attorney Jerome made a simple reply, which caused Judge O’Sullivan to | deny the lawyer's motion. Jerome sald | that it had always been the custom for Grand Juries to proceed without consid- ering outside matters and cited the cases of Johnny McKane and Albert T. Patrick. Jerome had no objection toia moderate amount of ball being fixed: - After getting an adjournment of pleading for a week Craig sald that he would at.once apply for'a writ of haieas corpus. < The defendant. was - eqol :and ~calm throughout the proceedings and when out- side the courtroom puffed, silently on a big, black cigar. ~ ‘ In the Hapgood trial, which was in- stituted by Judge Deuel, charging libel against Hapgood, -Colonel Mann testified fixed -an “O.

Bail in the sum of $10,000 had to be given by his daughter before he was releassd. The hearing on the perjury charge was. held before Judge McAvoy. It was begun on February 1. A number of handwriting cxperts were called to testify and the con- sensus of their expert opinion was that Colonel Mann had written the “0. K.” and “W. D. M." on_the bottom of the Count Ward letter. The indictments fol- lowed. Peter F..Collier, who recently returned from -Europe, - has.announced that. the fight against the editor of Town Topics will be carried on until Colgnel Mann is gent to prison. WILL SEEK ABSOLUTE DIVORCE FROM BONI New Coniplaint to Be Filed by the Countess Castellane. PARIS, March 12.—There Is reason to belleve that the preliminary hearing of the separation proceedings instituted by Countess Boni de Castellane, formerly Anna Gould, against her husband, Count Boni, which was set for March 14, will be postponed, This, it is understood, is due to the fact that the Countess contem- plates applylng for an absolute diverce instead of a separation, which will re- quire the filing of a new bill of complaint. The proposed change appears to be the result of the conclusion of all concerned that a reconclliation between the Count- ess and the Count is impossible during the ‘three years in which the legal sep- aration would be operative. It is the in- tention of the lawyers on both sides to avold public hearings of the case and to secure a decree without a contest. ————————— .

The debate was spirited, but was in- 2 o'clock, when the rail- road rate bill. was called up and Sena- tor Culberson made a two hours' legal argument, in which he supported a bill of his own, which he had introduced out by one of her numerous attorneys, on technical grounds. and the court granted immediate hearing. The arguments pro- ceeded, and at the close of court today the matter was taken under advisement and a deeision will doubtless be rendered to- morrow.

March 12.—Aan order was received at the Mexican Consulate here today, the, effect of which was to revoke the order as la substitute for the pending House bill. Foraker took issue with Culberson when he declared Congress itself had construed the commerce clause to give it power to fix rates, in granting a Fed. eral charter to the Union Pacific Rail way. In that aet it reserved this power and {t agteg under the commerce clause in that slation. Thi8, Foraker con- tended, should- not be so held. Con- gress was acting under its-authority to lablish pest roads and for the commerce clause, and ih fixing rates it was exercising a proprietary power. Culberson answered that Congress could exercige no other than its legis- lative power. Knox called attention to the fact that States recognized this power in forb. g to fix any rates outside their borders, for which point Culberson ex- pressed his thanks. Later Culberson declared that rate making was a legislative and not a ju- dicial funetion, The right of judicial review of an order of the commission already existed. Jo incorporate it in the pending bill, declared, would be te re¢ognize a constitutiomal right, but would answer no purpose that had not already been met. He oppesed the use of the term “fairly remunerative” ia the different bills and also “justly com- pensatory,” and said both raised a new standard not recognizéd M common law. He advocated instead the term “just and reasonable.” Cylberson said that conditions had changed; that competition had been de- stroyed by merger combination and trafflc arrangements, and that the in- terests of the country demanded that these railroad corporations restore to the public what justly belonged to it. ———e——— {st and a mar of force, and acquitting ANTI-SALOON LEAGUS STILL AFTER R MAYOR OF EUREKA Impeachment Proceedings Will Be e ity e of EURBEKA, March 12-~The 'Anti-i laon League announced today that It would renew impeachmeént proceedings against Mayor A, W.
