BELIEVE AIR PROBLEM SOLVED
Italian Count Declares He Has Per
fccted Flying Machine.

Rome, Dec. 10.--Count AlmerigL
of Schio, who, since 1914, has been
experimenting with airships, believes
he has found the solution of aerial
navigation. His new machine, which
is in the shape Of ship, contains a
fifty horse power motor and a rudder
ten yards square. Besides this there
is kind Of tail, about 80 yards
square. which may be used as a rud-
der, and at the end of this an arrow
to keep the ship in balance. This
airship, 1t is said. can remain in the
air for five hours without recharg-
ing, attain a height of 5000 feet
and a speed of 25 miles an hour. Ex-
perlments will soon be made with the
machine.

ANNUAL REPORT TO CONGRESS.

Washington, Dec. 10.-An arraign-
ment of the Immunity bath" decision
OF Judge Humphrey in the packers
trial at Chicago is the chief feature
Of Attorney General Moody's annual
report to congress, just made public.
The criticism is thinly yelled in a
recommendation for law by con-
gross granting the federal govern
ment the right of appeal in criminal
cases. 1t says:
81 renew the recommendation made
in my last annual report for the en-
actment of a Law giving to the United
States the right of appeal upon ques-
tons of law in criminal cases, with
the proyiso that verdict of acquittal
upon the merits shall not be set
aside. The congress has passed
such law for the District of Column
bia and 1t is the law of many of the
states. Within the year there have
been several instances showing the
great public necessity for the enact
ment of such a law. The indictment
against the beef packers, returned
by the grand jury after many months
of deliberation as the result of in
vestigations which had been made
throughout the country by the depart
ment of Justice, was rendered practic-
ally useless by the ruling of the judge
rot relating to the merits of the case.

ment would have been very glad to
have placed under the review of the
appellate court.

"A demurrer to an Indictment un-

A NEW JAP TREATY.

On first consideration, at least,
President Roosevelt's plan to settle
the Japanese controversy to the in
terest and satisfaction of all con-
cerned looks not only feasible. but
easy. This plan is based, first of all,
on Mr.. Roosevelt's high estimate. Of
the japanese as a nation-on the
assumption that they are equal to
the best and must not be treated
with unfavorable discrimination. In
proposing to exclude Japanese work.
ment from this country by treaty,t the
president relieves the proposition of
all signs of prejudice by suggesting
that such exclusion should be Offset
by a similar bar against American
workmen in Japan. This takes the
question out Of the class of race is
sues and puts 1t on an economic ba-
sis.
Fortunately the presidents plan

ed to strike out for himself he is
pretty hard to control. An American
exclusion act, under the conditions
named by the president, would pro-
mote the purposes or the japanese

would not be irritating to that gov

The Boise, Idaho, Statesman has
been authorized by the officers in
charge of the prosecution of the five
men charged with the murder of Gov,
Frank Steunenberg to say that Steve
Adams, one of the men who was ar
rested at Haines, Ore, on February

fession.
This confession is far more import
ant than that made by Harry Orchard
This statement was made by James
Mcfarland, a detective in charge of
the investigation, last evening, in the
presence OF Gov. Gooding, of Idaho
and j. III. Hawley, the latter in charge
OF the prosecution.
Mr.. MCFARLAND added that Adams
confession fully and exactly corrobo'
rated that made by Orchard at every
point touched on by both.
Moreover" MCFARLAND continued
Adams knows far more OF the work,
ings Of the Inner Circle than Orchard
did, and was able to give mass OF
detailed information that Orchards
confession did not cover.
Still another statement made by
Detective Mcfarland was that the
Adams confession gave the details OF
a large number of murders that were
not referred to in any manner by Or.

confession had been reduced to writ.

Adams had made this confession
without being promised anything
When talked with about the matter
he simply made a clean breast of all
he knew OF this case and of the secret
workings of the Western Federation
1t was announced by the govern
or, Mr.. Hawley, and Mr.. Mcfarland
that while they thought these facts
should be given to the public there
would be no further information given
