MORGAN N|THS
APPLY FOR WRIT
Attorneys Will Fight Reqqi-
sition for Couple.
CARAVAN HAS AFFIDAVITS
Close Friends Tell Story of Conspiracy
to Extort Money From
Young.

CINCINNATI, April lit was learned
this morning that Attorneys Shay and
Cosan, the Cincinnati lawyers who have
come to the aid of j. Morgan Smith and
his wife. brother-in-law and sister OF
Nan Patterson, were retained by the
parents of Mrs. Smith, who live in
Washington
The attorneys Will fight the requisi-
ton for the couple, and have applied for
a writ OF habeas corpus. The hearing
has been set for next Monday.
When Mrs. Julia Smith is taken back
to New York. if the efforts in her be-
half fail, she and her husband viii be
confronted with affidavits, made by
close friends, which tell a story of an
alleged conspiracy TO extort money from
Bookmaker Frank (Caesar1 Young, a
month before his death.
These atfidavits are in the hands of
Assistant District Attorney Garvan, VINO
will arrive in Cincinnati today, and vii.
be a surprise TO the couple under ar
rest.
Refused to Answer Questions.
Shay and Cogan have advised their
clients not to answer questions, and
saw them at headquarters, neither
Smith nor his wife would say word.
Detective Sergeant Mcknight, of New
York, arrived here late yesterday with
requisition papers. and held a long con-
ference with the heads of the police de-
partment. Mcknight says the prisoners
are charged with conspiring with Nan
Patterson to extort money from Young
1t will be alleged at the trial that the
life of Young was threatened unless he
gave up money. McNaught says:
Il do not believe that when Nan Pat
terson got in +hn cab with Young that
she had any idea of shooting him. Tie
man was tired of the woman, and she
realized that he was getting away from
her
I'VE have affidavits to the effect that
Nan was heard to say in theIpresence of
several persons that Young was going
away and that she was afraid she would
lose her meal ticket. We believe that
when she got in the cab with Young
on the fatal day she had the revolver
with her for q bluff.
How They Were Swallowed.
It turns out that a friend OF friend
OF Mr.. Rand had n good deal to do with
the arrest of the Smiths He saw them
ir a Cleveland hotel and notified Mr.
Rand's friend. The friend passed along
the word to Mr.. Rand. A private detec-
tive agency had been following the
Smiths but its men had temporarily
lost track of them. The agency inme-
diately sent two OF its men from Mon
treal and thereafter the Smiths were
always under surveillance.
Most of the time there were four men
employed watching the Smiths. 1t is
said that they were not particularly
pleased with the job. AS soon as they
got friendly with Smith ne is said TO
have found it convenient to get small
leans from them The sleuths were al
ways assured that it was only tempo
rary loan.
No one seems to know where the
Smiths got the money to carry them
around this country and Canada for al
most a year.
Hyman Stern, the pawnbroker who
sold the pistol with which Young was
killed, IS not coming to Cincinnati. He

One Horses Jaw Broken-Pitchforks
 !, Used to Stop Fight
 The New York Times prints a story of a fight between two stallions almost
 to the death: ' ,# +.
 When George Heno led his bay Hambletonian stallion up to the gate at his home here, after an outing the horses Hanks and breast were badly torn and bruised. Heno explained that the thoroughbred had barely es-
 capped with his life from an encounter
 with stallion that attacked him on
 old Clark farm, on the road between
 here and Railway. ... .. %
 Heno hitched the stallion to a light
 road wagon Saturday afternoon and went tout for a drive. While he was
 passing the Clark farm his Hambleton-
 ian, with an angry neigh, sounded a note of defiance to a stallion grazing in
 field nearby. The other horses accept. the challenge with another vicious neigh, and came bounding for the road. side with ears laid back and teeth to
 the gums. The Hambletonian reared as the oth- CT drew near, swung lose from the har-
 ness with sudden twist, and turned
 heels to meet his foe. The sudden haul on the lines dragged Heno over the dashboard and threw him down, disocating his shoulder He managed to crawl out of the way of the excited animals heels in time to see him plant both hind hoofs in the side of the other stallion and hurl him to the roadside. I Quick as a flash the other horse re- turned to the assault with. snapping jaws, and there was fierce head-on collision between the two enraged anil mals. The struggle was a terrific one, ! Each managed to fasten his teeth in the hide of the other, and to tear away lstrips of flesh. At one stage of the ! combat the Hambletonian, hearing sud- denly, landed a fore hoof on the others l jaw, that Heno says, broke it. Still the wounded animal fought on.
 The noise of the encounter was heard l by the men at work on the surround ! ing farms, and they had with their | shovels and pitchforks to separate the I horses. Neither beast at first paid any attention to their interference; both kept u pthe attack with teeth and hoofs | for several minutes before the men dared venture near them. The farmers finally succeeded, however, in prodding them into submission with the pitch
 forks. The attacking stallion as beadly bruised and torn as Henos driven back
 to his pasture, and Heno led his road
 ster home. A party of New York men
 and women in an automobile saw the

WHICH WOULD YOU RATHER
 LOSE.

Relative Value of the Thumb and
 Fingers as Figured in Various Coun- tries.
 The Thumb-The different fingers are far from having the same value with reference to their functional utilization. Much the most important is the thumb, for without it prehension would be very imperfect; the hand is no longer pincers but merely a clay when deprived of the thumb. It may be estimated that the thumb represents fully a third of the total value of the hand. The total loss of the thumb is estimated by Brouar- del secretary of the Societie le Medicine Legale, as 15 to S5 per cent for the right and 10 10 15 per cent for the left hand, except for workers in art, when he esti- mates 40 to 50 for the right hand and 25 to 40 per cent for the left. The Austrian schedule gives 15 to 25 per cent. In Germany 20, 28 and up to 33.3 per cent has been awarded. On account of the great difference resulting, in our opinion, from the use of both hands, we prefer, in the professions not requiring special hand skill, 30 per cent for the right and 20 per cent for the left. The percentage is based on 100 as the total industrial value of the hand previously to the accident, loss of 50 per cent re- presenting half of that value, and loss of 25 per cent, one-fourth, etc.
 The Index Finger.-The total loss of the index finger causes an incapacity estimated at 10 to 15 per cent in Austria, IS to 20 per cent in Germany, 15 to 9 per cent by Thiersch, 20 per cent for the right and 15 per cent for the left hand by the Italian courts, 15 per cent by the French tribunals, 10 to 15 per cent for the right and to 15 per cent for the left byBrouardel, except for workers in art. These figures differ but little from one another, and the figures from 10 to 20 per cent, according to the side, may be adopted.
 The Middle Finger.-The total loss of tlr middle finger is regarded by Cole biewski as often more prejudicial than that of the index; this is an isolated opinion;: almost all the authorities as- cribe less importance to the middle finger than to the index. Yet a great loss of force is observed in the hand when the finger is amputated. The fol- lowing are estimates: The Austrian tariff. 5 10 10 per cent; Brouardel, to 15 per cent except for workers in art; Thiersch, 10 to 20 per cent; the Italian ! law, 5 per cent. The figures to 12 per cent often are nearest the, truth.
 The annular ((ring) finger is the least important. Its total loss often does moi cause incapacity. The Austrian tariff assimilates this finger to the middle one. Brouardel estimates the loss at to 10 per cent; the Italian law, per cent. The French and German judicial decisions are often in accord is refusing 1ndemnity, considering the incapacity resulting from the loss as very slight.
 The auricular Qittle) finger may be compared to the annular, except in the professions in which it serves as a point, of support for the hand. Acci- dents of Travel.
