MOODY TO DEFEND LAW
IN LAB0R'S INTEREST

Washington, Oct. 2o.-Attorney Gen
nouncing, with the president s ap-
prevail. chat when the first case under
the employers liability act is tried he
intends to- ask leave to intervene in
the case to support the constitution
ality, validity and Interpretation OF the
law. The statement follows:,
"It has come to my knowledge that
it will be claimed in court that the
employers liability act, passed by the
congress last winter, by which rem
edy is afforded to all employees OF the
Interstate railroads for death or injury
incurred in their service thru the neg
ligence Of interstate railroads OF any
employees, is beyond the constitutional
power Of congress and therefore void:
cit. is my intention to ask leave OF
the court, in which the first case under
this law is tried, to intervene, not on
the questions of fact, but for the pur-
pose Of supporting the constitute
ity, validity and Interpretation of the
law. 49,.
t'This Intervention finds a precedent
in the leave given by the supreme court
to this department to intervene in a
private case arising under the safety
appliance law. Under this intervention
in the case Of johnson against the
Southern Pacific company, the judgments
Of the circuit court and circuit court
of appeals were reversed, and the law
plainly interpreted and made effective
by the Judgment of the supreme court

WOMAN BROWNS In
AN ELEVATOR SHAFT

Superior, Wis, Oct. 20.-The body of
Mrs. Jankoski of Mesabaa, MIMI, was
found in the elevator shaft Of the new
federal building here late yesterday af-
ternoon in about five feet of water.
She had drowned and had evidently
been in the water a few days. The
body was discovered by August Wad-
den, one Of the workmen, who started
to clear out the shaft to work on the
falsework preparatory to putting in a.
concrete floor. 1t is a mystery how
the woman could have fallen in.
If a person fell into the shaft, how
ever, he would not be able to get out
without assistance, as the brick walls
are perpendicular, and there is nothing
to grasp hold of.
The woman formerly lived in this
city under the name of Miller. She
has son in the city. The body was
taken to the morgue, where it was
identified by Detective Dill. In her
pockets were found papers and about
$3.50 IN money. There is some talk
Of foul play, but nothing is known yet.

Man Who Was Shot at for Being Sick
Dies in His Shanty.

Clarksburg, W. Va, Oct. 20.-George
RASH, the Syrian leper, who several
months ago was was driven from re- VARIOUS lou
ton, died in shanty at Pickens, near
here, today. Heart failure was the
cause Of his death. The body will be
cremated by the county authorities. The
leper has been located in shanty built
especially for him after his removal
to that place by the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad company.
At first the railroad company pro-
vided for his wants until the county
and state authorities took charge Of
him. Later a nurse came from New
York to look after him, but he circu-
lated freely on the streets OF Pickens,
times at the shanty. -.

TAKING MEXICAN FISH
Dispute Likely to Be Adjusted With
out Much Friction.

Washington, Oct. 20.-The state de-
partment has been informed that the
Mexican government has given instruc-
lions to the gunboats and revenue cut
tiers which it has employed to break up
fishing by American smacks in the ter
ritorial waters of Mexico to refrain
from unnecessary interference with YES
sells outside of the threemile limit and
to be as lenient as possible in other
respects. B.
This results from the protest Of the
state department against the action of
the commander Of a Mexican gunboat
in stopping and searching an American
vessel on the high seas.
The prospects are said to be favorable
for an early and satisfactory adjust.

FILIPINOS SEEK CHANGE
Ask That Another Position on Provin
cial Board Be Elective.

Manila, Oct. 20.-A radical change
in the system of provincial government
is imminent if the Philippine commits
sion approves the recommendation Of
the assembly Of provincial governors
now in session at Manila. The recon-
mendation provides that another mem
Der of the provincial board shall be
elected instead of appointed. At pres
emit the treasurer and school superin-
tendent are appointed. AS they must
be Americans, they constitute a ma
iority of the provincial boards. The
provincial governors want member
elected to replace the school superin-
tendent, thus giving the Filipinos a ma
iority on all the boards. The matter
probably will be referred to Washing
ton.
