Twists and Turns Alrship at viii

Los Angeles, CAL, Jan. 29.-Roy Kna
benshue, the aeronaut, made successful
fight in Captain Baldwin's aifship, the
California Arrow, this afternoon at Chute'
Park. Knabenshue was in flight about
rorty-fve minutes, during which time he
circled within radius OF about one mile
of the park, executing all sorts OF maneu-
vers with the big aerial craft, returning
finally and landing within the inclosure Of
the baseball grounds, from which he had
started.
The weather was perfect for the ex-
pertinent, just suspicion OF a southwest
breeze blowing. When about 700 feet
high, Knabenshue began his maneuvers,
turning the craft in every direction, de-
scribing complete circles within small
radius, crossing and recrossing the park
above the heads of the thousands ol
spectators.
When seen by the Associated Press cor
respondent, Mr. Knabenshue said:-
''I think demonstrated today that with
a perfect working motor, as | think we
now have, The Arrow can be controlled
as easily as one man can control an auto
mobile. found no difficulty in bringing
the airship to the starting place and land
ing where l desired. The atmospheric
conditions were perfect for the expert.
ment and Captain Baldwin, as we'll as my
self, are elated over the success of the
fight"

The scaffold has been completed and all
the necessary appliances are here-indeed

But few who know McCue desire to
witness the hanging. A committee Of
twelve citizens, including two physicians
as legal witnesses, several newspaper re-
porters and few others, will constitute
the number present.
Several medical students Of the Univer-
sity of Virginia have sought permission tc
witness the hanging, but none will be al
lowed to see it.
There lie some talk Of having the loca

Anthony NJ. Kelley first came into
national prominence through his NOM
ination bv President Cleveland, in 1887 4,
as Minister to Italy. His appointment
was cancelled on account of the objections
of the Italian government. He was then
accredited by President Cleveland as Min
lister to Vienna, but the Austrian govern
ment also declared Mr.. Kelley to be
persona non grauta, the first objection
being that he held ultramontane views
that we're offensive to friendly govern
ment.
This ground was not satisfactory to an
influential circle in Austria, and 1t was
then alleged that his Catholicism was lax,
from which charge he was warmly defend
ed by the administration at Washington.
Secretary Bayard addressed note to the
Austrian government in which he COM
mented on the reasonableness Of race and
religious distinctions. The Secretary even
went SO far as to say that the appointment
would be allowed TO stand even though it
resulted in q cessation of diplomatic re-
lations between the United States and
Austria. To relieve the administration OF
President Cleveland of further embarrass-
ment, Mr.. Kelley resigned and later was
appointed to the international court at
Cairo. He resigned in April 1902, owing,
it was understood, to the death of bis
wife. dis record in Cairo was distinguish
ed by ability.
Mr.. Kelley was at one time associate
editor of the Norfolk Virginian and after
wards edited the Index-Appeal of Peters
burg. He was mayor Of Richmond for
one term, and was afterward Common
wealth's Attorney for that city.
For twelve years Mr.. Kelley was presi-
dent of the National Irish Catholic
Benevolent Union. His brother is Bishop

WANTS LIGHT
ON MARRIAGE
Roosevelt in Special Message Asks Con-
SreSS to get Statistics on Matri-
mOny and Divorce.
INSTITUTION At VERY
FOUNDATION OF SOCIETY
Is of Vital Concern to People of Country
Fears Divorce Laws are Dangerously
Lax and Badly Administered.

Washington, Jan. 30.-The President
today sent a message to congress calling
attention to the fact that no statistics on
rsarriage and divorce have been collected
since 1886, and recommending legislation.
The following is the text of the message:
To the Senate and House Of Representa-
tiYes:
l call the attention of the congress to
the fact that no statistics have been col
lected by the Federal government upon
the subject of marriage and divorce since
the year 1886, and that but few of the
States have provisions for the collection
of such statistics.
The institution of marriage is, of course,
at the very foundation of our social or
ganiza tion, and all influences that affect
that institution are of vital concern to the
people of the whole country.
"There is a widespread conviction that
the divorce laws are dangerously lax and
indiferently administered in some OF the
States, resulting In diminishing regard
for the sanctity of the marriage relation.
"The hope is entertained that co-opera-
ton amongst the several States can be
procured to the end that there may be
enacted, upon the subject of marriages
and divorce, uniform laws, containing all
possible safeguards for the security OF the
family.
"Intelligent and prudent action IN thai
direction will be greatly promoted by rro
curing reliable and trustworthy statistics
upon marriage and divorce. deem th'
matter of sufficient general Importance t.
recommend that the director OF the cen
Gus be authorized by appropriate leglsa
ton to collect and publish statistics per
tanning to that subject covering the perioC
from 1886 to the present time."

The same correspondent describes War
saw as being in state of complete
anarchy. "Many have been killed or
wounded in charges by troops, and the
recklessness of swsshbuckllng Hussars, "
he says. "The only conveyances moving

BEEF TRUST
LOSES CASE
U. S. Supreme Court Hands Down
Decision Sustaining the Lover
Courts,
OPINION Is BY Mr. JUSTICE HOLMES
1t Continues the Injunction Granted Against
the Fresh Neat Packers Under Sher-
man Antitrust Law-SOme Ex'
OPINION is BY Mr. JUSTICE HOLMES
Cerpts.

Washington, Jan. 30-The supreme
court of the United States decided the case
of the United States vs. Swift & Co.,
known as the beef case, charging conspir-
acy among the packers to fix prices on
fresh meats. etc., The opinion was hand
ed down by Justice Holmes and affirmed
the decision of the court below which was
against the packers. The opinion con-
tinues the Injunction granted against the
packers under the Sherman antitrust law.
The opinion was concurred in by all the
members of the court.
Summarizing the bills, Justice Holmes
said:
"It charges a combination Of domi-
nant proportion Of the dealers in fresh
meat throughout the United States not to
bid against each other in the live stock
markets Of the dif1ereut states, to bid up
prices for few days in order to induce
the cattle men to send their stock to the
stock yards, to fix prices at which they
will sell, and to that end TO restrict ship
ments of meat when necessary, to estab-
lisb a uniform rule of credit TO dealers and
to keep black list, to make uniform and
improper charges for carriage, and finally
to get less than lawful rates from the railz
roads to the exclusion Of competitors"
lie also said:
J "The combination alleged embraces
restraint and monopoly of trade within a
single state, although its effects upon COM
merce among the states is not accident,
secondary, remote or merely probable.
Speaking further on the question CT in
J reference with interstate commerce jug
tice Holmes said that charge was made
of a combination of Independent dealers
to restrict the competition OF their agents
when purchasing stock for them in the
stock yards. "The purchasers and their
slaughtering establishment are," he said,
"largely in different states from those Of
the stockyards, aNd the sellers Of the cat
tie, perhaps it is MOI too much to assume,
largely in different states from either The
interest of the combination Is not merely
to restrict competition among the parties,
J but, as we have said, by force of the gen.
eral allegation at the end Of the bill, to
aid in an attempt to monopolize."
He added "When cattle are sent for
sale from place in one state, with the
expectation that they will end their transit,
after purchase, in another, and when in
effect they do so, With only the Interrupt
ton necessary to find a purchaser at the
stock yards, and when this is q typical,
constantly recurring course, the current
thus existing is current of commerce
among the states and the purchase OF the
cattle is part and incident Of such COM
melce."
