At ORNEY GENERAL
Urges New Building for De-
partment Of Justice.
COTTON LEAK GASES
AN IMPORTANT RECOMMENDED
TON MADE.
Discrimination and Rebates Treated OF
at Length-The District Jail
is insufficient.

The opening part of the annual report OF
Attorney General Moody is an appeal to
Congress to settle the matter Of new
building for the Department of Justice and
declaring that there is q lack OF adequate
or even decent accommodations"
The Attorney General says the depart
ment was turned out of house and home
six years ago on the ground that It's build
ing on Pennsylvania avenue was unsafe.
The department has since that time been
doing business in rented buildings and quar-
tiers. He says there are seven different
rented buildings, situated in different parts
of the city, now in use, costing $500 a
year. He cannot devise any way to get all
his ''worsmen" together in one building,
and regards this. as q serious impeachment
to the business Of the government. He de-
clares that this condition is inconv enient,
uneconomical and humiliating."
Owing to the growth OF business of the
department the estimated appropriations
for the next fiscal year of $S,s13573, ex-
eeeding the appropriations of the present
fiscal year by SAL. POI.
Mr.. Moody also recommends the enact
ment of a law giving to the United States
the same right 10 a review in criminal cases
throughout the United States as is now af-
fOrded in the District of Columbia.

Determinations and Rebates.

The report calls attention to the various
cases instituted In the courts by the de-
partment, under its present Attorney Cen
eral and his predecessor dealing with dis
examinations, rebates and departures from
published rates by railroad carriers. He
recommends that the Elkins act be amend
ed so that offenses against it may be pun

Superintendent and Teachers.

But little time was lost in the selection
of jury, the right of challenge being exer-
cised in but thirteen cases. The jury is
composed Of the following: Walter F. PyIes,
Egoert c. Barrett, William E. Shaw Rich
ard 1. Lea, George ". Day, Otto C. Meem.
Lloyd j. Jones Benjamin Flandale, John
Fl Burdette, Ed ard ]. Shafer, Charles w
Hirsch and Leonidas Ricketts,.
States Attorney Peters opening address
TO the jury was confined largely to a de-
tailed explanation of the different degrees
of murder 1t being possible under the
indictment to return a verdict of murder
in the first or second degree or of man
slaughter.
In opening for the defense Mr. Edward c.
Peter told the jury that it would be shown
that the shooting was done in self-defense.
The two men had been lifelong friends and
neighbors, and the deceased was engaged
to be married to the daughter of the &C
cused that on the night OF the shooting
Whalen was drunk and that Embrey
pleaded with him not to injurs him and
that the shot was not fired until whaIen
had Embrey by the throat and was choking
him.
Mr.. Peter also stated 1t would be proved
that at the time OF the shooting Whaler
had taken off his overcoat undercoat and
vest preparatory to attacking Embrey
The testimony of the witnesses first placed
on the stand by the state was not of very
damaging character. Deputy Sheriff Ham
the morning following the shooting. told OF
a conversation he had with Ernbrey, in
which he had stated that he was forced
to shoot 70 save himself.
DR.. Glazebrook of Washington who. as
sisted by DR.. George e. Lewis. of Rock
Vile, performed the autopsy on Whalen.s
body, described the wound and also de-
scribed the clothing worn by Whalen the
night of the shooting, showing that only
the mans shirts had been punctured by a
bullet. This supported the contention of
the defense that Whalen pulled off his
coats and vest and then attacked Enbrey.
1t was shown by witnesses for the state
that Whalen was under the Influence OF
liquor and Charles Brown, coIored, who
walked along the road with Whalen shortly
before the shooting, swore that Whalen had
cursed Embry, and had declared that he
would wade through blood before he would
stand for being turned down. as Embrey
had served him. 1t Is thought the trial of
the case will consume two days, and pos
sibly longer. In all nearly one hundred
witnesses. have been summoned. c. X.

Power to Fix a Maximum Rate.

IF the power, upon complaint TO fix
future maximum rate and put Il into effect
within reasonable time, subject to appeal
TO the courts, should be given to some adj
mtnistrative body created by Congress,
weapon against discriminatory practices,
much more potent than any now available,
would be put into the hands of the govern
ment. Upon proof that a lower rate had
been given 10 some preferred shipper the
body clothed with the power to fix a fu-
ture maximum rate might we'll determine
that the rate which the railroad could af-
ford to give to the preferred shipper 1t
could afford to give to all shippers in like
situation. Such a finding, II could be- pre-
dlcted with certainty, the courts upon ap-
peal would not reverse, for no better evil
dence of the legality and justice of the rate
thus fixed could be found than in the action
Of the carrier itself. 1t would be difficult
Tor the carrier to maintain that rate
actually charged by 1t was confiscat tory or
unjust. ~

The Cotton Leak Cases.

Relative to the cotton leak cases of the
Department of Agriculture the Department
of Justice makes this important recommen-
dation:
Misconduct in Office was always a grave
offense under the English common law
AS such it was brought to this country ard
was embedded In the common law of Mary
land and thence was transplanted to the
District of Columbia Various decisions of
the courts of this district show that there
this crime Is federal offense, although
within the territory of the states there are
no federal common-law crimes.
Il recommend, therefore, that a statute
should be enacted at this session of the
Congress which shall deal adequately with
this subject. defining the offense, providing
for its punishment, extending the prohibit
lions OF the law throughout the United
States. ard including this offense In the
present laws concerning removal or in any
amendment of those laws which may be en-
acted consequent upon The recommendations
relative to that subject which l have made
in this report. l shall have the honor to
submit hereafter to Congress an outline or
suggestion of a suitable bill for this pur-
pose
The Attorney General thinks that laws
should be enacted providing for appeals
from the courts of territories and posses
sions of the United States TO the Circuit
Court of Appeals and United States Su
preme Court. Present laws, ne says are
defective and inharmonious.

GRANEY CAUSES A RIOT
Conviets in San Quentin Refuse to
Stand by His Decision Call
ing All Bets Off.

San Rafael, Sept. 16.-Referee Eddie
Graney has started 4 series of miniature
riots at San Quentin. Convict noses have
been punched and convict eyes have been
blackened, and four Tiotous striped clad
individuals are now languishing in the
dungeon making the best of a bread and
water diet Ii all happened this way.
When a man becomes a convict he loses
his citizenship, but he does not lose, in
most cases his sporting prOcliVities.
When the Britt-Nels0n fight was az
ranged the short-haired sports OF San
Quentin began to pick winners. Cash be-
Ing short they bet all that they had, bags
and plugs Of tobacco, watches, hats and
shoes. 1t is estimated that enough OF
these were bet Ia start q country store.
Then came the fight At COlma and Ora
rey's decision declaring all bets off.
y bigger battle has been going on in
San Quentin ever since, than even Graney
ever refereed. The Nelson cons" refuse
10 accept aGraney's arrangement. They
say that it might go on the outside,
instant that il was made and get a chance
10 replace his money or chattels. In San
Quentin. they say, the fighter winning
the purse wins for those backing him,
Eddie Grancy Notwithstanding. OF course
the Britt cans" stand with Graney,
Warden IOmpkins has taken prompt
measures TO end the controversy and the
dungeon is ready for the first convict
reported as mentioning Graney, Britt or
Nelson.

HERO WORSHIP
IN FOOTBALL
Stanford Professor Hands Out Hot
One for WOrshipers.
is A FOOLISH ADMIRATION
SAYS ONE WOULD THINK 1T WAS
MODERN MARTYRDoM.

Stanford University. Sept. 16.-The
first number of the Stanford sequoia
issued under the editorshiD of p. c.
Edwards, '06, contains an article by
Professor Colbert Searles, a member Of
the faculty committee on athletics. on
Athletes and Hero Worship" which
has caused a large amount of interest
among the student body. DR.. Searles.
after pointing out that the ratio of
delinquency is practically the same be-
tween athletes and non-athletes. says:
The tendency has been for some
years to transmute our enthusiasm for
the sport (footbalD into an exaggerated
and foolish admiration for the sports
man. BY thus inviting the attention
we throw the semblance out of all pro-
portion to the reality and thus injure
our cause and those engaged in il. One
would think from the amount OF SYM
patty wasted upon our football player
that football was a modern form of
martyrdom; that a man playing it
could have no time or thought for any
thing else, assuming that he had other
aspirations"
DIR. Searles proceeds to detail the
work required OF the football man,
which he says requires from one and
half to two hours a day, with but ten
to twenty-five minutes of the went
scrimmage. DIR. Ssarles continues:
Does it not seem that the man who
cannot stand that regime must have
boarded the wrong train? He should
be III u sanatorium. And then the ter
rible mental straini 1t seems that the
intellectual ground-gaining power OF
these sufferers is so impaired by the
necessity of learning some twenty or
thirty signals and of retaining the
same. also by the absolutely inevitable
bordering over their chances for max
ing the team that when they come to
the class room they are totally incapa-
BILE of making their distance. How are
men of this 1lilnsy physical and mental
construction worthy Of figuring as
heross?"
Last year among the winners Of the
varsity s. there were eight delinquents
eight men whom we looked up to as
men intrusted with the privilege of up
holding our athletic prestige, eight men
whom we cheered and feted for their
physical proWess, were dropped or
warned for delinquency in their stud
les. And was it the difficulty of their
university work that caused their un-
doing? We could have nothing but
sympathy in that case. But it is no
torious that two Of the shining lights
among those eight fell off in their work
after the season clos and it is equal
ly we'll known that card playing was
the cause. In regard To the others an
investigation Of their reports shows
that at least half of them fell behind
after the season CLOSED, when they no
longer had the stimulation Of an ener-
getic and determined coach behind
them to drive them along. What sort
OF IA figure do these men cut as heroes?
IAN these examples should show US
that we ought to exercise more discern
ment in the bestoWal of honor on men
whose chisf claims to university hero
worship are strong arms, legs and
backs, plus good supply of what is
technically known as beef

LUCK IN BASEBALL

Many a ball tOsseT has lost his chance
to become a major Lacquer because he
got a bad start" says Fred Clarke,
captain and manager of the Pittsburg
Nationals, i'm the Detroit Tribune.
There is lots OF luck In baseball. One
man viii have everything run his way
for a while while others run in hard
luck. For a series Of games he viii
succeed in getting on the bases daily.
Then il viii be some days before he viii
as much as succeed in getting there at
all. Take two men-one hitting for
250 during a season and the other $50.
The former viii so far beyond the 9TH

but the other fellow will beat him out.
That is because the other sticks longer.
IT is the same way with a ball club.
Good luck viii attend It for a while and
everything it viii do viii be all right.
The winning batsman has longer sue
cessfui streaks than the weaker bats
man, and the winning club has longer
successful runs than the weaker
