ATTORNEY REEVES
R0ASTS THE PR0PHT

Chicago, Dec. 2L-"Dr." Alexander
Dowie's business methods were severe
ly criticized by Attorney Reeves today
when the closing argument in the suit
for a receivership for the Zion lace in
dustries was begun. His business rule
was likened unto that Of a kind who
tells his underlings what he wants done
and then demands Of them a hearty
approval. His control over his associ-
ates was typified as a club lowering
over ones head. Attorney Reeves en-
tered a plea for all the small investors
in the Zion lace industries. and said
the court should not recognize that
the interests Of Samuel Stevenson
Dowie's brOther-in-law and legal ad-
versary-and of Dowie were the only
equities at stake, but should consider
all the numerous small stockholders in
the concern, many Of whom had in
vested their all In the institution. The
attorney drew a picture of how Dowie
had discovered Stevenson in England,
a prosperous merchant of a religious
turn of mind, and how by some subtle
influence had induced him to part with
everything to embark with him here
in business.
Attorney Packard, for Dowie, an
nounced to the court that Stevenson
probab biz. get $50. 900 of the amount he
claimed from Dowie If he would make
a demand for the return Of cash for the
shares Mrs. Stevenson held in the in
stftution at the time of her death.

SAY THEY SAW MONEY
IN M0RTENSEN'S HOUSE

a story Of the alleged money trans
action between Hay and Mortensen. on
the fatal Monday night, told by Mrs
Mortensen, which is in direct contra
dlction to her statement to the county
attorney, developed yesterday when
Archie and Andrew Frebairn. who live
near Seventh South and Third West
streets, gave the police officers an ac-
count Of visits made to the Mortensen
home the day before and the day after
the murder of Hay.
Archie Frebairn says that he went
to the MOrtensen home about o'clock
Monday afternoon to see about tile
plans of a house that Mortensen was
going to build for himself and brother.
He claims that he was ushered into
the kitchen and that on the table he
saw pile of ten $50 gold pieces. Mrs.
Mortensen, he said, told him that her
husband had just left the house saying
he had to go uptown, and had left the
money for her to take care of.
Frebairn said he left the house ard
that on the following day ne and his
brother called at Mortensen's in the
afternoon to see about the plans. They
were met at the gate by Mortensen's
little boy. who inquired if they had
heard Of the disappearance Of Mr.. Hay.
Frebairn said that they had not heard
Of the disappearance. and thinking that
the child had asked about Mr..
Haynes, said that they had heard he
was dead.
The conversation when the house was
entered Immediately turned upon the
Hay disappearance. and the Frebairn
boy claims that Mrs. Mortensen told
them the circumstances of the affair,
and impressed upon them the fact that
he had taken the money, walked out
of the house and disappeared.
''She told us said Frebairn, that
she saw Hay take the money in a
money sack and walk out Of the door
holding the sack in his hand"
Both men declared that they had
heard this statement and were willing
to swear to it on the witness stand.
This story. as told by the two men,
is i'm direct contradiction to the state
ment Of Mrs. Mortensen made before
County Attorney Christensen the day
after the discovery of Hays body. In
that statement she declared that she
had not seen any money at all and did
not see Hay leave the house.

PAN,AMERlCAA CONGRESS.
Arbitration viii Take the Place of
Soldiers in Future.

Mexico City. Dec. 21.-The United
States delegation to the international
American conference conferred today
with the Mexican delegation and to-
night the delegates of the different
countries met and discussed the sub
Ject CT association, and as a result it
is believed that a plan acceptable to
the majority, if not all, the delegates
to the conference has been reached.
The projected convention provides that
contracting nations viii oblige them
selves to submit to the decision of ar
bitration all existing and future con-
trOveTsies which cannot be settled dip
lomatically, provided that in the ex-
elusive judgment of either of the par
ties of the dispute the said controver-
sizes don't affect the national honor
nor independence.
Controversies concerning diplomatic
privileges, boundaries, rights of navi-
cation and the validity, Interpretation
and enforcement of treaties, shall not
be considered as affecting national
honor nor independence. Under arti-
Gle % of The Hague convention for the
peaceful settlement Of international
conflicts the contracting parties agree
to submit to the decision of the per
manent court of arbitration established
by said convention all controversies
embraced under the proposed pan
American convention unless either par
t. to the dispute prefers that a special
court be established to try the case.
In case II is agreed to submit the case
to The Hague court the parties to the
dispute agree to accept the procedure
and rules laid down by The Hague
convention.

Another uprising. ii is reported has
taken place near Valencia, and it is said
that the entire country is ready to take

MAS0 HAS WITHDRAWN
Election in Cuba viii Now be a
Very 0as-sided
Affair.

Havana, Dec. H.-The supporters of
General AIaso in his candidacy for the
presidency of the republic have decided
to take no part in the coming elections
fixed for Dec. 81. All the candidates
Of the party have withdrawn. and the
Maso members OF the provincial boards
have been requested to resign. These
steps were decided upon after the re-
ceipt Of a letter from Governor General
Wood refusing TO grant the party rep
reSentatiOn on the board Of scrutiny or
an extension of the time IN which to
modify the voting list.
At meeting of the party leaders a
resolution was adopted declaring that
The central board is q coalition of par
tisans. and that General MasO. after
exhausting every means to insure i'm
partiality. rectitude and justice at the
coming elections, has become convinced
thatneither in official circles in the Unit
ed States nor in Cuba does the inten-
ton exist 10 see that the elections are
carried out with sufficient legality TO
reflect the real wish of the Cubans, who
are DESTROYS of independence and anx-
ious to freely elect their first eonstitu-
tiOnal government"
Root Of the decision arrived at, and also
to publish a manifesto to the country.
La Lucia aDplauds the withdrawal
Of the Maso candidates, and says that
without the guarantees asked from
Secretary Roo every one knows that
the election will be a Justification Of
the viii Of the majority.
THE MasO coalition" says La Luz
cha, should not lend themselves 20 the
betrayal of the public will and should
not cooperate in a policy which tends
to lay the foundation of the republic on
a gigantic frauu."
Besides the sO-called conservatives
with him, Maso is said to have a strong
following among the blacks in the cOun-
try districts, and it is intimated in
Havana tonight that this element may
not take kindly to the present condi-
ton Of things, and may cause trouble.
The Discussion, the Palma organ, as
serts that the withdrawal Of MasO's
supporters is due to the fact that they
are hopeless minority. and the candi-
dates have no chance of being elected.

R0MNEYS INTERVIEW
WITH M0RTENSEN

Perhaps the best example Of MOrten-
sens determination was furnished last
evening when George E. ROmney, man
ageI of the Pacific Lumber company,
confronted him. Mortensen sat calm
ly reading a magazine when Mr.. Rom
ney entered the chamber, and did not
look up until the visitor stood directly
before him. Then he quickly rose to
his feet and, advancing, extended his
hand. He was cool, self possessed and
polite. Whether he was pleased or
annoyed by the visit would have been
hard for an observer TO determine.
I'm afraid things look pretty dark
for you, Pete" said Mr.. Romney.
Every development that materializes
makes Il worse. The police have the
revolver. the bullet and the empty

You remember the conversation We
had at my Office before James Hay
and you started home. There IS the
note you wanted Cancelled. It is just
as it left the Office. The bill is I'M
receipted. Those circumstances look
bad, Pete and all that you have to
show you paid the bin is the receipt
that Jim carried in his pocket to your
house that night duly signed"
Eyes, 1 know know" repeated the
suspect.

case wielout detriment to yourself. for
heavens sake do it.
I have talked a great deal; can
say no more
Pete, some tremendous influence
was brought to bear on James Hay
that lead him to go 10 your house that
night TO collect that money against
my orders. You at least know what
that was. Those who overheard your
conversation on the street car have
told all You are not doing right If
you claim to be innocent and withhold
the truth concerning that. If James
Hay walked down that track to his
death voluntarily, it was with
trusted friend who betrayed him. The
case centers about you and your house.
For heavens sake, man, have you
nothing to say?"
M0rtensen had not and the interview
ended absolutely unprOductive as TO
results. unless it contributed some
thing for Mortensen TO think about
just as ROmney was turning away
Morteusen spoke up.

SCHWAB ON TRUSTS.
Says They Are Dead, But "Consolid-
alton" is Living.

Chicago, Dec Elm a speech toniobf
before the Bankers club. Charles N
Schwab president Of the United States
Steel corporation, declared that the
trust is dead business proposition built
on trinity that would wreck. anything
the restriction Of trade, the increase of
prices and the thFOttling Of connection. ~
In distinction from the trust" he de-
clared that consolidation had for its
guiding principles the reverse Of this trim
ity-that instead of restricting it expanded
trade by creating new avenues and reduc-
ing the prices of commodities produced.
For particulars. he discussed the United
states steel corporation. pleading that IL
was with this consolidation that he was
most familiar.

against consultations as trusts No one
mas clearer appreciation than myself
OF ehe evil that lurked in the trusts
seheme. I say luTked' adTisedly, because
the trust is a dead business proposition
with which we will never again be trou-
bled. It was an experiment and TO that
extent served its purpose. But it was
founded on miscOnceptiOn and promoted
along lines Of self-destruction.
Its fundamental principles were the
restriction Of trade, the increase of prices
and the thrOttling Of competitions trim
ity that would wreck any proposition
business, political or social. The c0nsol-
idation, as organized today, has for its
guiding line the very opposite Of this IN
stead of restricting trade, it expands
trade by creating new avenues and reduc-
ing the price of the commodities which
It produces Tt is enabled to do this be-
cause the chief advantage of consolida-
ton is the reduction in the cost of the

Talks Of the Note.
Il understood said M0rtensen, that
the note was to be simply turned over
TO me, and that the g0mDany was to
see that the mortgage which secured IL
was Cancelled afterwards"
Do you mean to tell me-" asked the
officer, that when Il was agreed be
tween you and the company that that
note should be Cancelled when the
money was paid, you could have that
mortgage Cancelled by showing that
you possessed the uGcanceled nOte?"
Mortensen replied that he had moth
ing further to say on the matter.
From Mofesnsen's talk ana his ner-
vous condition the officers thought he
would surely collapse and tell some
thing to throw light on the murder. but

him through a sweating" Morten-
sens attorney and his brOther-in-law.

talked together for some time, and
when they left Mortensen seemed to
have regained control of his nerves.
While ne was not quite as cool and in
different as he was when first arrested,
he refused to talk any more. and re-
stunned his former air Of Indifference to
matters.
Chief Hilton accordingly decided not
to put him through a sweat box
last night, but to wait for developments
today. The chief stated, however, that
he believed they would be able to wiring
something from the prisoner before
many more days.
