this money in the hands of some one
capable of using it to the best advant-

campaign of education in the regularly

to anybody that the doubling of the
population of the state in two years,
and the multiplying of it in five, should
not be an unreasonable expectation.
Will it be done?
Probably not.

on Canal Affairs
EXECUTIVE SESSION is HELD
Question of Punishment Of the Witness
T Is Discussed, But No Decision Is Ar
rived at-BiseIow Reiterates His
criticsms-TilIman's Resolution Is
Tabled.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Poultney
BigeloW, the magazine writer, who was
denounced by Secretary Taft for his
criticism of the management of canal
ate committee the source of his in
formation. Upon being instructed to
answer, he declared: 1.-The committee
can put me on bread and water or even
condemn me to Colon, but it cannot
compel me to divulge that which was
given to me in confidence"
The committee went into executive
session to determine what course
should be taken. The executive ses-
sion continued for an hour when adj
journment was taken until afternoon.
No decision was reached as to what
action shall be taken concerning Bige-
lows contumacy
Describing conditions, Bigelow de-
clared that there are no sanitary de-
posits. His testimony was general
instructed to confine it to stating the
facts on which he based his article on
the mismanagement of canal affairs
He replied his article was based on his
personal visit to 100 different shacks
which Taft, Stevens and Shonts had
pronounced to be in a good healtlrful
condition, and which he found to be
without water or sanitation. He was
interrupted again, and told that i'm
pressons were valueless, and was ask
ed to give facts.
We'll here is a fact" said the wit
ness, many engineers of note declined
to accept government employment in
clearing up these unsanitary condi-
lions
Name them,' demanded Knox.
Bigelow gave the name Of John F..
Freeman, of Boston, and said there
were others. Then followed the ex-
ecutive session.

BIeELow ON THE STAND.
He Reaffirms Charges Relative to
Canal Conditions.

Sanal NOnQltl0nS.
Washington, Jan. 18.-Bigelow was
the first witness before the public
hearing in the investigation of ques-
tions relating to the Panama canal. His
articles published in the Independent,
which attacked the administration Of
affairs in the ,canal zone were de-
nounced by Secretary Taft Bigelow
being Quaker, he was permitted to
affirm" rather than Swear" when
the oath was presented to him. At
the outset Bigelow denied he was at
tempting to get advertising in order to
sell his books and refuted the charge
that he is a scandalmonger. He said
he was on the isthmus two days and
spent most of the time investigating
sanitary conditions. He stated the la
borers were landed in an oozy swamp
of pestilential character and asserted
the sanitation was of the worst sort
He thought he had been in grave dam
ger there because of the fact that Sec
retary Taft and Governor Magoon had
not been through these swamps and
there must have been some good rea-
son for their avoidance of these places.
He said that to use the names of the
rersons who helned him eet the in
formation would subject them to en-
iharra ssment and "make their names
worth nothing by the time the official
replies were concluded"

he profited by thefts and was party
to them. Judy testified that Carl
WTightmire, weighmaster, and one Of
the men under indictment, had asked
him to enter the combine and he had
done so. "He told me, testified Judy,
"all about the organization. He said
there was already number of men at
the yards who were at it. That when
they bought cattle the latter were
underweigEed and when they sold they
were overweighed. He offered to put
me on the list, to give him 40 per cent
what we made and retain sixty per
cent. He was to take the money and
divide 1t with the men who weighed
.eatt,e at the yards. He said there were
already in the combination Henry
Nichols, Jay j. Miller, Ray Bowen, Cy
Van, George Wright, some of the Viii
frites, Charley Wiggens and Bruce
Wrackeldorfer, weighmaster, who gave
false weights" Judy testified to hav-
ing paid the money to Wiggens and to
Wrackeldorfer for making improper
weights. Wiggens, who is under in
dictment, is living on q farm some
whore in Iowa.

Pembroke, n. H, Jan. 1S.-Seven
persons, all members of the family OF
Charles Ayres, are supposed to have
been murdered ad then burned in fire
which destroyed Ayers farmhouse near
here yesterday. The bodies of child
and of Ayers motherin-law have been
found in the ruins. Mrs. Ayers and
four children are missing and it is
feared that they, too, are victims OF
the fire.
Late yesterday Ayers was found in
dying condition on the Northford
turnpike, in the town of Chester There
was a bullet wound in his head, APP
parently self-infiicted. He is uncon-
scious.
Thomas F. Clifford. county solicitor
of Merrimac county. said later that
there is little doubt that the seven per
sons had been murdered and the farm
house set on fire.
The theory of the county solicitor is
that Ayers was the murderer, but up to
a late hour they had been unable TO
find any evidence to indicate the meth
DDS employed to wipe out the family.
