IS not so TRUSTWORTHY, as rule, as
that of men. Lawyers and jurynen
declare that women will perjure them
selves for two reasons always-in
order to protect anyone they love, or
to evade claims involving money,
which they consider unjust-and for
other reasons often. If these charges
are true, it is because there must be
some peculiar kink in woman's brain
by which means they persuade them
selves that these things are right, even
if they are not lawful.

In affairs outside Of our
own country our great work
has been beginning 10 dig
the Panama canal. The ac-
QUESTION Of the canal strip
was due 10 the initiative of
congress-; and the fact that
the work thereon is now be.
ing done in the most thorough
and satisfactory fashion is due
TO the action of the present
congress ut the session Just
closed. Only this action rem
dered the work possible, and
the h~eartiest acknowledge
ments are due 10 the far.see-
ing patriotism of those who
made it possible. The Dig
gine of the Panama canal is
the colossal engineering feat
of all the ages. No task as
great Of the kind has ever
been undertaken by any other
nation. The interests banded
together to oppose it were
and are numerous and bitter,
and most Of them with a Pc
culiarly sinister basis for
their opposition. This sinister
opposition rarely indeed VEN
lures openly to announce it's
antagonism TO the canal as
such. Sometimes it takes the
form of baseless accusation
against the management and
of a demand for an investiga-
ton under circumstances
which would mean indefinite
delay. Sometimes it takes
the form of determined oppo.
sition to the adoption of plans
which will enable the work to
be done not merely in the
best, but in the quickest pos.
sible way.

NO IMPRISONMENT 2
 UNDER ELKlNS LAW
A Decision in the New York Central
 Rebate Cases.

Now York, July 6.-Judge Holt, in the United States circuit court today handed down an opinion, the effect of which is to dismiss the indictments found against Nathan GuilfOrd, vice president, and F. $. PomerOy, traffic manager, of the New York Central rail- road, and C. Goodloe, Edgar and Edwin Earle the latter sugar merchants of Detroit, charging them with conspiring to violate the provisions of the EllIins rebate act, punishable by imprisOn- ment.
 The court, however, holds that the indictments against the New. York Gen. traI railroad, Guilford and PomerOy, found under the Elkins act, are good and sustains them so far as they are punishable by fine. In sustaining the demurrer to the conspiracy indict- ments and dismissing the demurrer to the other indictments, the court holds that congress did not intend the vio- lation of the Ell1ins law to be punish able by Imprisonment. Judge Holt fur ther holds that the amendment to the Elkins act, providing for punishment by imprisonment, was not retroactive, and therefore could not include the men charged with conspiracy.

ACCESSORY ARRESTED
 FOR WILMOT ROBBERY
Evidence Secured against R. Mendoza
 Of Tucson.

Tucson. July 6.-(SpeciaIO-R Men was arrested this afternoon on a charge of being an accessory before the fact in the robbery of three Chihuahua Mexicans, near Wilmot, east of this place, a few days ago.
 The robbery was committed by a couple of Mexicans, who represented that they were officers, and who ar rested the Chihuahuans on suspicion of being engaged in a burglary in this city. The Chihuahuans demurred to the arrest on the ground that they did not know that the Mexicans were of- fcers of the law. The arrest took place in the presence of a section gang, of which Mendoza was a mem ber He told the Chihuahuans that he knew the Mexicans to be officers. and the Chihuahuans then went with them. Some distance away the Mexicans searched their prisoners and took $243 from them and then turned them loose. Their victims, suspecting that they had been robbed. followed the Mexicans here and secured their arrest.
 At the preliminary trial of Carillo, one of the Mexicans Mendoza testified in his behalf and was immediately ar- rested for perjury. and was released on a bond of $500 Though Mendoza had been suspected of complicity in the robbery of the Chihuahuans, there was no direct evidence against him until today, when it was learned that he had assisted in the arrangement of the plot.

Judge hulliu Will Call a CIand Jury
 On His Own Motion.

Denver, Col. July 6-Following out the ruling of the supreme court. made on Monday, to the effect that their ap- peals should have been a writ of error instead of habeas corpus and super sedeas. the attorneys representing District Attorney Stidger, Sheriff Nes- bit and Coroner Rollins, whose removal was sought by the Honest Elections feague in the proposed grand jury in vestigation, filed writs of error today. The same action was taken by attor- neys representing Chairman Williams of the city republican central commit tee and Chairman Davoren of the dem ocratic committee. held in contempt for refusing testimony in the preliminary investigation, based on the application for grand jury.
 The court at once issued injunctions against District Judge Mullins, pre- venting him from taking further action against these men. Judge Mullins con- strues this ruling as applying only to the proceedings instituted by the Hon est Elections league, and he intimated tonight that he would tomorrow, on his own account, summon the grand jury and appoint special prosecutor and eliSOrs.
