fuse to Plead to Murder

Boise. Idaho, Feb 22.-Charles L.
Moyer, William d. Haywood and G. A.
Pettibone. leaders of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners, yesterday were TAX
en- to Caldwell, where they were ar
raigned before the probate judge on
information charging them with the
murder of former Gov. Frank Steunen-
berg Each of the prisoners stood
mute refusing to plead.
The court overruled an objection to
the information and a motion for the
dismissal of the prisoners. They were
committed without bail. The three
prisoners were brought back to Boise
and again were taken to the state pen
itentiary, where they will be kept in
close confinement.
E. F. Richardson, representing the
prisoners, demanded an immediate pre-
liminary hearing, but it finally was
agreed that the case should go over
until Tuesday, when further continu-
ance may be ordered.
Denver, Feb. 22.-Acting Secretary
James Kerwin gave out an interview
last night, in which he characterized
the arrest of Meyer, Haywood, and
Pettibone as an attempt to break up
the federation. The prime object, he
declared, was to compel the federation
to drop its civil suits against the mine
owners of Colorado for damages grow
ing out of the Colorado labor trouble
of the past two or three years.

LIBELOUS LETTER
GaIesburg Circuit Court Judge Makes
Important Decision in Insurance
Company's Case.

Galesburg, H., Feb. 22.-In the cir
cult court Yesterday Judge Grier denied
the application for a temporary in
junction made by the National Life In
surance company of the United States
of America of Chicago against DR..
Watson and Attorney w. II. Atwood
of this city to enjoin them from send
ing to other bondholders of the com
pany circular letters alleged by the
company to be defamatory and injuri-
Gus to its business. The bill alleged
that Watson and Atwood had entered
into a conspiracy wrongfully to eXtort
money from the company and that in
the prosecution of this they had begun
suit for d receiver in Des Moines,
Iowa. 1t was also asserted they had
sent out libelous circulars TO other
bondholders containing false and ma
licious statements, which, the bill al
legged, had already caused damages
amounting TO $4,000
Judge Grier decided that, as the bond
holder of one of the former companies,
now merged in the National Life, DR..
Watson had a legal right to write to
others similarly situated and enlist
them in litigation.
Regarding the circular letter in ques-
ton, the judge said it is of a libelous
and defamatory nature, but that the
weight of the authorities is against the
interference of a court of equity in the
circulation of libel.

Views of Christian Denominations
Aired, After Which Resolution
is Passed.

Washington, ID. c., Feb. 22.-DiscOrd
entered into the congress on uniform
divorce laws following heated discus
sion of the following section of the re
port:
AN innocent and injured party, hus-
band or wife, seeking a divorce should
not be compelled TO ask for dissolu-
tion of the bonds of matrimony, but
should be allowed. at his or her option,
to apply for divorce from bed and
! board Therefore divorces mensa
should be retained where already eX-
listing and provided for in states where
no such rights exist
Lead tO Bad Results.
The proposition was vigorously op-
posed by Dr. Henry c. Winton, of
Trenton, y. J.. who maintained that
separation should not be granted as
it might tend to bring about wrong
full mode of life His argument was
combated by Chairman Smith of the
committee, who asserted his belief
that DR.. Winton placed human nature
in too low a plane.
Mr.. Smith declared that the authori-
ty of the committee and the Roman
Catholic church should be respected
in passing judgment on this question,
TO which Rev. Caroline b. Crane, of
Kalamazoo, Mich, took exception, she
remarking that "the church has the
right to discipline its own members,
but should not force its views on this
congress"
A general debate followed, in which
the views of several Christian denom-
nations on this subject were aired.
Women Leave Room.
a number of women left the room
when Miss Fanny Leake Cummings of
the state of Washington declared that
the resolution would put a premium on
vice, and produced statistics in sup
port M.her argument. The resolution
was finally adopted with an amend
ment allowing the innocent party to ap-
ply for divorce from bed and board "at
any time"
The congress adopted unanimously

Urge Two Years Residence Limit.
Causes for divorce, both ante-nuptiai
and post-nuptial, were thoroughly dis
cussed, after an attempt had been
made TO strike out the entire list on
the ground that such list might do
injustice to some states.

than two years residence should be re
Quired on the part of a plaintiff who
has changed his or her state domicile
since the cause of divorce arose, where
jurisdiction depends on the residence
of the plaintiff. This feature of the
report was not adopted until after
