The Campbells had been performing
at a local theatre. Three weeks ago
Compbell met Maud Deveere and took
n fancy to her. As he was away from
home more frequently than was neces-
sary Mrs. Campbell sought clues in her
husbands pockets. She found card
bearing Maud Deveere's name and ad
dress and called upon her. According
to the story of Miss Deveere she did
not know Campbell was married until
this call was made. Mrs. Campbell took
things quietly and asked ocular proof
Of her husbands preference SO she
could get a divorce. Maud Deveere
agreed to hide Mrs. Campbell in a
closet from which she could see and
hear the affectonate demonstrations of
her recreant husband. Whether Mrs.
Campbell heard more than she bar
gained for or whether she went with
the intention of shooting her husband is
unknown.

cussed plans about blowing up Walters
house md offered Knorr $500 IL he would
do tho job. with n promise of 5000 ad-
ditional when the equity suit was va
Gated.

made. and during the month Of January
he stole five sticks Of dynamite. fuse
and caps from n quarry near town and
hid them under the sidewalk. Sept. 9

Walters house. Knorr got his dyna-
mite. and at I o'clock on the morning
Of Sept. 10 placed the charge on Walters
porch and liz the fuse. Fortunately
only the cap exploded. Knorr said he

40 as many state legislatures have done
in this respect. and bluntiy specify pre-
Cisely what the commission can do and
what it must do.
Chairman Morrison was outspoken:
The supreme court denies the commits
sion the power to enforce rates or to
correct abuses" he said. 1T can inves-
tigate and renSrt irregularities when
they are found, but what good will that
dc so long as the authority to apply the
remedy does not go with the privilege
Of investigating the complaints Of vic
tins of injustice and injury from such
abuses? And the railroads are fully cog
nizaEt Of the facts, and as the limit of
our power as now defined Is to ascertain
and report upon the existence of such
facts 1t will be readily seen that the
commission is shorn of important feat
ures of usefulness. 1t is for congress to
correct the law where it is shown to be
weak and where the way is suggested
for combative legislation.
I'VE do not make the law; we are its
creatures. and can use only such weap-
ems as congress puts into our hands.
IL these weapons prove inadequate for
the purpose. congress alone can provide
US better ones. The commission has been
calling the attention of congress to de-
fects in the law for ten years, but no at
tention has been paid to the suggestions.
whether this decision of the supreme
court will have the effect of stimulating
action Is purely speculative PROPOSE
ton. The railroads want a pooling bill
and will naturally attempt to carry their
point. That proposition carries with it
railroad opposition to legislation that
does not authorize pooling"

Washington, May 26.-The interstate

BRICE WANTS ANOTHER CHANCE.
Says the Mint Experts Did Not Follow HI
Scheme for Transmutation,

Scheme for TransmutatiOn.
Washington, May 26-E. c. Brice,
whose claim to a process for creating
gold and silver from chemically pure
antimony and other base metals has
been under investigation by a commit
tee of mint experts with only negative
results, has made application to the
commissioner of patents for another test
In his request he asserts that the old
commission did not follow his directions
in important particulars. Ingredients,
ne alleges. were used which he told them
were infmical to his process, and that
he himself produced gold from chemf-
cally pure anthony, sulphur and iron
after the commission had failed with the
same materials, and that they then de-
clared that by whatever process gold
ard silver might be obtained from any
materials it simply showed that there
was gold and silver in the materials be-
fore the process was used
In letter to Preston, the director of
the mint, Price strongly protests against
some of the acts of the commission by
which he claims his process was unfair
ly tested, especially in the use of aka
lies, which render the tests valuless.
Rrice is entirely dissatisfied with the ex-
periments made, and holds that great
injustice has been done him.
