AN IMPORTANT PRINCIPLE.
Can the Government Force Work on its Ships
Regardless Of Courts7
(By the Associated Press

Washington, d. c., June 17.-Secretary
Moody had a conference at the Depart
ment of Justice today with Attorney Gen.
eral Knox as to the right Of the gov
eminent to proceed with the work upon
its war vessels regardless of the interior
ences of any courts and even at the ex-
pense of calling in Federal troops to in
sure the continuance of the work. The
case In point is that of the cruiser Gal
weston, at the ship yard of the w. R..
Trigg ship-Building Company, of Rich
mond, Va, whose contract for the vessel
the government declared forfeited on May
IA last because of the insolvency of the
company. The principle involved is re
garded as vitality important to the navy.
The Attorney General will not render his
opinion for several days.
The supply creditors of the w r. Trigg
Company have notified the government of
their intention to appeal to the State
courts of Virginia for an injunction stop
ping further work by the government
upon the Galveston, which it was intended
should be launched next Monday. Rear
Admiral Bowles. Chief Constructor of the
Navy, has advanced the contention that
no court has RICH, to interfere with
work upon a government warship.
The administration Is much concerned
over the probability Of delay in the com
pletion of the warships under construc-
tion by the companies of the United
States Ship Building Company as result
of the financial troubles of that concern.
The President is anxious to find some
means by which the government may pro-
tect itself in case computations should
arise. 1t is said that such means have
been in the contention made by Admiral
Powles which, if sustained by the Attor-
ney General, gives the government the
power to order Federal troops TO insure
the completion of war vessel duly con-
tracted for by the government.

ARGUMENT IN MARcUM TRIAL.
Lie Given in Court---Mrs Even Has the Nerve
Of Bellona Herself.
(By the Associated Press.)

Jackson, Ky. June 17.-The arguments
in the cases of Curtis Jett and Thomas
White. on trial for the murder of j. b.
Marcum, were not concluded when court
adjourned late tonight and the case will
not go to the jury until tomorrow noon
The preponderance of opinion still seems
to be the death penalty, at least, will
not be given and that the jury is likely
to hang between life Imprisonment and
acquittal.
One of the first things en- the program
was the giving of the lie in court while
Judge French was making the opening
argument for the defense Two lawyers
were prevented from coming to blows
by officers of the court After Judge Red
wine threatened to send one of the at
torneys to jail for contempt, and repri-
manded another for using unbecoming
language, the proceedings continued dur
ing the day without any disturbance
while Attorneys Golden and O'Niell for
the defense, and Hurst and Marcum for
the prosecution made their arguments.
The argument of Thomas Marcum, a
brother of the victim, surrounded by the
widows and the orphans of his brother
and of other victims of the feud, was
delivered under the most impressive cir
oumstances. The case will be closed to-
morrow by Commonwealth Attorney Byrd.
The men who assaulted witnesses yes
terday after they had appeared before
the grand jury in the arson cases, were
brought before Judge Cardwell of the
local court, by the guards of the provost
marshal and convicted. The fines and i'm
prsonments inflicted are said to be the
heaviest penalties for the violations of
law here against feudists for years
