DEATH FOR INcURABLEs.
Bill to Legaize Such Action Appears
in Ohio LEGISLATURE.

Columbus, o., Jan 25.-Painless
death for pain racked sufferers who
have no chance for recovery and who
desire to live no longer will be possible
if the bill introduced in the general
assembly of Ohio is passed If the
proposed measure becomes law per
sons suffering from incurable disease
or from injuries from which there is
no hope OF recovery may be legally
chloroformed to death or killed in any
other painless way which physicians
may design.
The measure was introduced by
Representative Hunt of Cincinnati at
the request of Miss Anna Hall, who
has for years been student of the
subject. Her interest was aroused
first by the illness preceding the death
of her mother from cancer of the liver.
Miss Hall sat in the gallery of the
house and witnessed the voting down
of motion to reject her bill. The
vote was rs to 22. Miss Hall wept
when she saw that her measure was
to be received and sent to a commit
tee.

at the time Commissioner Garfield
was conducting his investigation into
the beef packing industry and were
not sworn when they gave evidence.
District Attorney Morrison then de-
clared that he wished the jury to dis
regard the fact that many of the de-
PENDANTS in the case are men of wealth
and position.
1--WE are not prosecuting these men
because they are rich,' he said. "The
government admires rich man who
has profited honestly. A man like Mar
shall Field, who was buried while the
attorneys for the defense were telling
of the honest money made by these
packers, commands the admiration of
the nation. 1t is the man with tainted
money that the government is after =
