New Orleans, Nov. Io.-The committee
on resolutions Of the Federation of Labor
reported today on the resolution that Porto
Rican laborers taken into Hawaii are be-
ing ill-treated and should be returned by
the United States government to Porto
Rico.
The committee recommended that the
charges of ill-treatment be investigated
and if found to be correct a petition for
the return of the men to Porto Rico be
presented to the government.
A resolution condemning the recent re-
ported utterances of President Eliot of
Harvard college in favor of "scab" work
ingmen was reported upon favorably by
the committee, and its action was indorsed
by the convention. The first paragraph Of
the resolution as originally introduced
commenced: Whereas, the head of the
foremost American university, President
Charles w. Eliot of Harvard ETC. Sec
rotary Agard Of the resolutions commit.
tee called attention to the words "the
foremost" saying that the committee had
changed the words to "a prominent" as
the members of the resolutions committee
did not believe that an institution which
would retain at Its head man capable
of such expressions as those represented
to have been uttered by President Eliot
could by any possibility be the foremost
university of the country

REJECTION OF INVENTION
PREYS UPON HIS MIND

In general he seemed to believe that
he had been prosecuted because an inven-
tion of his was not adopted. He stated
that he believed that the dead superin-
tendent had Disseminated against him and
his brothers when seeking employment
and stated that he knew that il he could
not get job at the works there was
nothing else for him in Anaconda.
He talked of machines and mechanical
appliances with apparent familiarity, ex-
planned why the invention he claims Mr..
Evans had rejected was superior to any
other and stated that for years he had
been evolving plans for the improvement
Of a concentrator.
His testimony was in general state
ment Of his belief that he had been un-
justly treated by the man he is charged
with killing.
Naturally the interest of the people of
Anaconda centers in the character of the
defense, the direct nature of the testi-
mony, the statement of the dying man,
and the alleged confession of the accused.
The public is anxious to learn what man
ner of fight the two attorneys representing
John McGeary will put up to save him
from the hangman's rope.

how many rifle shots were fred at Nc
Geary. Emerson replied that he was not
certain, but still he believed two shots
were fired.
+ Attorney Wines cross examination
chiefly concerned McGeary's immediate
action after he fired the shot. He qucs-
tened the witness closely about the rare
at which the defendant went down the
hill. Emerson described McGeary's gait
as dog trot.
When he captured McGeary the latter
seemed cool, collected and not the least
excited.

which brought McGeary to a halt, was
the next witness He testified that he

ant whom he identified, holding a gun in
his hand near the body of the man
stretched on the ground. Attorney Duff,
handed the witness the revolver, which
lay on the table near him, and asked him
to illustrate the position and attitude OF

the gun to the ceiling the prisoner fol-

When the aged parents Of the defendant
came in it was with view to ascertaining
their right to be present during the
trial. When informed they had

marked they could remain and they took
their accustomed seats behind their son.

which appears to be entirely characteristic
of him. He sat easily and naturally, fol-

Anaconda Nov Io-This was the day
of the trial.
Today's developments in the McGeary
murder trial we're full of interest. Now
that the examination of witnesses has
been taken up it is a larger crowd than
usual whicl filed the court room when
the bailiff announced that court was
opened. In spite of the inclement weather,
many climbed the hill through the snow
storm to witness the trial which is at
tracing so much attention.
The feature of todays trial was the tes-
tmony of McGeary in his own behalf. At
2 o'clock this afternoon he was put on
the stand and began the narration of
story, every word of which was listened
to with marked attention by spectators
and jury alike. There was a stir in the
court room approaching a sensation when
the prisoner stated that one of the discov-
cries was perpetual motor "for trans
mitting power"
His demeanor in the witness chair was
a surprise to many. He gave his testi
mony in clear and explicit language. Per-
haps the logic of his statements was not
always apparent, but his cool, calm man
ner Of addressing himself to the task of
explaining his remarkable situation was
such as to impress profoundly all who
heard him.

An Appeal for the Band.

The band members are growing
discontented over the fact that they
have no proper place to practice, and
the people of the town do not seem
to realize the necessity of such a
place. The members have tried to
get the several different halls in town
out there is always some objection
to be found. All other towns furnish
a suitable place for their bands to
practice in and we do not see why
MorrisvilIe can afford to be behind
them. The boys are willing to play
for the entertainment of the public
during the summer and the public
ought to take proper interest in their
TEelfare. Unless something can be
done along this line the members will
have to disband.
