She rose and thus she answered: on
earth no right is found,
While you alone are master and words

You raised your lofty structures, the
earth you did subdue;
But Justice there to render was not re-
served for you.
Too long the only ruler, too broad as
boss you stand;
Too long the sword you welded with
loud and stern command.
Your course is not directed for justice
peace and right;
Your compass wrong is turning, for
there is steel in sight.

And they for you are Shaving like
beasts the world around.
But inside there is roaring. the sound

And outside steady arming for war,

You take the peoples money, for you
are moneys slave.
Then in the final struggle, when all is
won or lost,
Our children are the victims, and they
must pay the cost.
Then in their name ask you: Will
you not count me in?
For justice is the victor, and it will

responsibility.
Defence Abruptly Closes Case
Will Go to Jury Today.
United States Supreme Court Refuses 10
Re open tie Tucker Case.

Cambridge, Mass. March 16.-The de-
Tense was opened today at the trial of
John Schidlofski on the charge of MUIR
der when Lawyer Philip H. Sullivan in
a brief address to the jury that
Schidlofski had made no effort to con-
ceal the evidence of his crime and
argued that this showed that the de-
PENDANT was mentally irresponsible.
Mr.. Sullivan claimed that if Schidlofski
had been in his proper mind, he would
have remembered that workmen would
have gone to the golf links and that
evidence Of his crime would have been
discovered Immediately. When the at
torney had concluded Schidlofski was
placed on the stand to testify in his
OVID behalf.
SchiGlofski in weak and hesitatinG
voice began to answer the questions of
his counsel and the court warned him
to speak louder. He said he came to
this country from Russia. He remenl-
bereG falling off a bicycle and hurting
himself hut he could not remember
what part of his body had been hurt.
He said he married his wife about three
years ago in BrOcktOn. The govern
ment testimony was that the defendant
haG been married last year. He de-
scribed the excessive drinking habits
of both himself and wife during their
three years of married life. Schdlofski
testified that both he and his wife went
to Belmont and drunk heavily on the
night Of the crime. He recalled that
they had words, and testified that she
kicked him. The next thing he knew
was several hours after when he awoke
and found his coat and vest gone.
The next thing he realized he was IN
Chicago. though he did not remember
purchasing a ticket or boarding Il train.
lie did not remember. he said, that ne
had confessed to the police that he had
murdered his wife.
Schdlofski was sharply cross-examined
by District Attorney George A. Sander
son, but he made no material changes in
his original statements. He denied that
he had cut his wifc's lead off and de-
clarcd that he did not remember having
stabbed her. The last thing he recalls be-
fore he went to sleep that night on the
hill was that his wife was jumping upon
him. After waking; he did not see his
wife near him.
Following Sohidlofskl's examination two
doctors testified as to the prisoners SAN
ity. One said that upon several exami-
nations of Schidlofski he had found him
mentally irresponsible, and that he be-
lieved at the time Of tho alleged murder
he had 'transitory frenzy or mania''
Shortly aftcrward the defence abruptly
rested its case.
The case will probably so to the jury
tomorrow.

Bodies Now Recovered Number IT,
Believed That All in One Car, Is,
Were Either Killed or Burned.
Horrible Observation-Disclosures ES.
capes-=-About Is Badly Injured.
==-Warrant Out for Operator.

Pueblo, Col, March 16-Some scores
OF lives were crushed out early today
in hcad-on collision of two passenger
trains near Adobe. Col. about e miles
from Pueblo, on the Denver & Rio
Grande Railroad, and more than
score of the victims were moderated
beyond identification by fire that de-
strcyCd the wrecked coaches. More
tEan a score We're injured, but all OF
these will probably recover.
The wreck was due to undelivered
orders. heavy mountain grades,
binding snowstorm, a sharp curve and
the slippery condition of the rails. Only
the locomotives, baggage and day
coaches were wrecked, the sleeping
cars escaping almost unscathed as in
the case of the Eden disaster on the
same road in 1904.
Many of the dead were hOmeseTkerS
bound for the Northwest. The three
rushed locomotives set fire to the Eplin-
tered coaches and it was hours before
all the bodies We're recovered, the
flames being so hot that rescuers could
not approach the debris until the fuel
burned out. 1t was wild, stormy night
in the mountain canons when the two
heavy trains met. Binding snow
ddrkened the rocky gorses and speed
was nigh. Suddenly headlights flashed
out. and it was realized by the engi-
ncers that something was wrong. Ac-
cCrding to Fireman j. H. Smith of the
West-bound train, Engineer Walter
Coslett applied the emergency brakes,
Eut the slippery rails allowed the mo-
Tcntrm of the heavy train to carry it
on to the fatal crash.
The impact was scarcely noticeable,
but the trains crushed and ground into
each other. The helper engine of the
west bound train acted as a cushion,
minimizing the force and weight of the
heavy mountain engines. This helper
was crushed together like so much pa
per and the larger locomotives ran
through the mesh Of iron and plowed
each other TO pieces. Fireman Smith
was the only member Of the engine
crews to escape.
The baggage car of the wcst-bound
train broke in two and three coaches
were squeezed together. The baggage
car, the mail car and coach of the
west-bound train buckled, but none Of
the cars telescoped.
Hardly had the noise Of the wreck
ceased when sheet of fire ran through
the shattered cars of both trains. In
the forward coach of the west-bound
train every seat was occupied by pas
sCngers. most of whom We're nome
seekers. A number of foreigners were
among them and in their terror they
gave IN life without making any at
tempt to reach safety outside the
burning car. They sank to the floor of
the car and were roasted alive.
The cooler ones in the car, seeing
their danger. rushed for the windows
and doors and with the aid Of the pas
sengers in the rear of the train and
those members OF the train crew who
were unhurt, managed to reach the
open air. Many were injured by the
rough handling they received or by
flying glass.

ing cars saw that nothing could be

Washington, March 16.-For AN in
slant in the House today there was a
lapse in the vigilance of those who
have been on guard to prevent legisla-
ton which would take away the rank
Of lieutenant general in the army and
the chances of Generals Corbin and
Macarthur for promotion. Mr.. Prince
of Illinois, whose bill abolishing the
grade in question, is the regular Or
der of business of committees, slipped
into the executive breach. There was
an immediate call to arms on both
sides and for three hours the friends
Of the generals filibustered against the
bill.
The next result was that the previ-
Gus question is ordered on the bill and
an amendment is pending, having
been offered by Mr.. Grosvenor of Ohio.
which extends the time of the opera
ton of the bill so as to allow the pro-
motion Of the two officers named. On
this amendment the House was voting
but without quorum when adjourn
ment was had until Monday, when the
vote will be completed. At present it
stands IS ayes and SO nays on the
amendment.
Previous to this the first real filihus-
ter of the session. there had been four
hours of debate on the legislative bill.
Mr.. Shackleford opened the program
with 4 severe criticism of Speaker Can
non, which he was not allowed to fin
ish. Then followed somewhat lively
debate on the appropriation bill.
