Both are strong Carter men. The anti

DOUBLE SHAME
Frightful Charges in a Muir

Montana.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Heltna, Mont, March 15.-After ex-
hausting several panels of jurors, jury
has been finally selected in Granite coun-
ty to try J. G. Hunter, charged with the
murder of his sonin-law, Hiram o.
Waldridge.
Damaging evidence has already been in
troduced against the accused. If the state
proves its contention, Hunter will be con-
victed not only of murder, but of incest
with his daughter, the wife of VALID
ridge. The state alleges it was jealousy
Of Waldridge that inspired the father, who
had been living in incest with his daugh-
ter, to commit the murder. Some
evidence in support of this theory is being
introduced The father Of Waldridge has
positively identified clothing found with
Hunter as his sons wearing apparel.

Strong Minority Report Of
the Senate Committee.
WRONG IN PRINCIPLE
Bill More Objectionable Than Was
It's Predecessor.
ENCOURAGES A SHIPPING TRUST
Not the Duty of Public Treasury to
Save Losing Industries From
Bankruptcy.

Washington, March Ex-senator Berry,
representing the minority of the senate
committee on commerce, to-day presented
ship subsidy bill.
The minority deny the accuracy OF both
the predictions and the facts in the ma
jority report They. urge that the bill is
wrong in principle and declare that it
will utterly fail in the accomplishment
that while it is not SO complicated as the
subsidy bill of the fifty sixth congress,
1t is in some respects even more objec-
tionable. The minority continues:
The bill proposes to tax the whole people
to the extent of several millions for the
benefit of one single industry. Besides, the
statistics of the last two years prove. that
the shipbuilding industry does not need such
special assistance, butts rapidly increasing
under natural conditions.
Foreign Mall Provision.
They criticize the feature of the bill
which carries the subsidy bill for foreign
mails and say: - 81 i. 1ss; 7
The highest rate OF, subsidy Is given u
2O-knot vessels, while the fast ocean mails
The mail compensation to the slow Ameri-
can vessels, already too highs is made i'm
mensely higher by this bill. We pay more for
weekly service than England pays for a
semi weekly service by much faster ships
than ours.
They further urge that the bill makes
no provision against shipping trust and
claim that it encourages combination
leading to such a trust. They also say:
The lines might also merge with foreign
lines to control freight and passenger rates.
Thereby our subsidy would be aiding the for
eign partners of our subsidized vessels.
Vicious Glass Legislation.
The report closes:
We know that there are hundreds ana
thousands of industries In our country doing
losing business but We deny that congress
for this reason can 60 into the public treas
ury and save them from bankruptcy. We
sympathize with all men in the hard strug-
giles OF life, but it is not the duty OF our gov
errment to interfere 5ilsn- e private business
affairs of the citizeis We asaieSe that ali
men should have an equal and fair chance in
the race for wealth and happiness. Eyers
citizen should bear his share of the burdens
Ct the government One class should never

ers Absolute equality of rights is doc
trine we should never abandon.
The bill is wrong in principle, unjust, vi
cious, pure class legislation. x.
The senate to-day agreed to take up
the bill Immediately after routine bust
ness on Monday and that speeches be linn
tied to fifteen minutes, except that Sena-
| tor Frye is accorded thirty minutes.

ing Again.

Boston, March 15--The final settlement
OF the great transportation strike in this
city has narrowed to-day to the issue be-
tween the freight handlers and the freight
clerks OF the New York, New Haven &
Hartford and the Boston & Maine rail-
roads. The issue Is that Of being taken
back in a body, instead of as new men.
The only concession thus far made by the
railroads is that they will take back as
many men as they can find places tor
without prejudice, but the strikers re-
fuse to yield. They are about 1000 in
number.
Practically all others engaged in the
strike observed the order declaring the
strike off to-day. Some Of the long
shoremen found that their places had been
filled, but those who could not return to-
day, relying on Governor Cranes repre-
sentation that all difficulties would be
settled in due time, faced the conditions
with patience. The team drivers. who's
return yesterday did much to relieve the
congested freight houses and docks, the
coal transfers, the longshoremen and the
eXpressnen were nearly all at work as
usual
Governor Crane, Secretary Easley Of the
Civic Federation and Judge w. A. Reed,
chairman OF the state board Of arbitra-
ton, resumed the work of adjusting the
difficulty. 1t was stated that the rail
roads were making advances to get their
old men back, although insisting that they
should apply for reinstatement as indi-
Viduals.
