NEW IDEA IN ENGLAND.
RiIl Creating Court Of Criminal
Appeal.

London, April 1S.--A bill constitut-
Ing a court of criminal appeal, which
has not heretofore existed In Great
Britain, was introduced in the house
of commons by Attorney General Wal
ton. He said that the measure would
create the right Of appeal against
convictions for crimes similar to that
now existing in civil cases. The new
court will consist Of seven judges of
the kings bench division of the high
court of justice, to be selected and
presided over by the lord chief justice
of England The right of appeal in
matters Of law will be unqualified and
in matters of fact 1t will be left to the
discretion of the new court. There
will be no new trials, but the court
will have ample powers to get at the
truth. 1t will be able, IL necessary, to
summon fresh evidence and, when the
court has satisfied itself of the true
merits of case 1t will be the duty
OF the court to determine whether the
conviction shall stand, be set aside or
be modified. - attorney general
added that this was not "a rich mans

MAKES GENERAL DENIAL.
Reply Of Defendants In Mary Baker
Eddy Suit.

Concord, N. H., April 18.--A general
denial OF all the allegations of the
somplainants in the suits for an ac-
counting Of the property of Mrs. Mary
Baker G. Eddy, filed March /, was the
legal answer made by the defendants
named In the original action.
The specifications In the original
bill are that Mrs. Eddy Is and for a
long time has been incompetent to do
business or to understand transac-
tions conducted In her name; that the
defendants whose answer has just
been filed, with other leaders Of the
Christian Science church who were
named in the original bill, have pos.
sessed themselves Of the person and
property OF Mrs. Eddy and have car.
ried on her business; that on account
OF Mrs. Eddy's Airmity these persons
are bound to give account Of all trans
actions undertaken in her name and
that the defendants have wrongfully
converted property to their own use.
To these representations the de-
PENDANTS filed specific and detailed de-
nial, declaring also that they have no
knowledge of many of the allegations
OF the complainants and demanding
that the complainants furnish proof
thereof They also declare that they
have reason to believe that the bill OF
complaint was not brought by the
plaintiffs In good faith, but that the
"so-called next friends" have been in
duced to loan their names at the in
stigation and at the expense Of Ger,
tain evil minded persons, who are
furnishing money for the prosecution
OF the bill of complaint for their own
evil purposes and to advocate their
own selfish interests"

IN NO DANGER.
Ex-Gov. Larrabee of Iowa Talks
About Railroads, in
Washington.

Washington, April 17.--'I defy
any person to point out single act OF
any Legislature this year which has
done actual harm to the railroads. =
In these words former Gov. William
Larrabee of iowa, today emphasized his
belief that there is no ground for the
fears that some railroad officials are
expressing over radical and ill advised
anti railroad legislation at the hands of
state legislatures. He believes the
president Is on the right track and
likens the outcry now raised by the rail
roads to the protests which were made
when first the state of Iowa tackled the
problem of controlling railroad rates.
Gov. La1rabee will zee President Roose-
velt to talk over railroad legislation
tomorrow.
There should be a law to regulate
capitalization, and there should be an
immediate physical valuation on which
to base this regulation. Pooling should
not be permitted l do not see the
slightest danger Of any serious conflict
of federal and state governments on
this subject. The people Of the coun
try and the people of the varions states
desire to use the railroads, and they
wish them managed and operated IN
the best possible way. They have
spent millions of dollars in improving
the roads and highways of this country,
and they are open on equal terms for
the use of all the people 1t should be
the same with the railroads. They
should be subject to the same scrutiny,
inspection, examination and CIRCULATION
as national banks. Their capital
should be controlled in the same way,
and they should be sharply called down
by the government whenever they get
lax in their methods.
Abraham Lincoln trusted the people
of this country, and the railroads need
not be afraid to do the same. They
will not suffer. The trouble is that
the railroads buccaneers-I will not
call them magn ates- trying to raise
scarecrows before the people every time
any legislation is attempted in the pub
lie interest. They have one set of rules
LOT CORPORATIONS anu one IoT HleH, anu
when they talk for corporations we
must take their statements with a
grain of salt There is always con-
spiracy on the part of these great rail
road and financial interests against
anything which they believe is against
theil interests. l have no doubt that
there now exists conspiracy on their
part against President Roosevelt.
Nevertheless his popularity with the
country is greater than ever, and if he
would accept third term he would be
elected unanimously. +"
Gov. Larrabee favors Taft for presi-
dent in 1908 if Roosevelt won run.

On the eve of the assembling of the
second Hague conference, which meets at
the Netherlands capital on the 18th,
when it is expected representatives of
forty six countries will be in attendance,
the topic that is naturally being much
discussed is that of Peace.
1t is to be hoped that the forthcoming
conference will WELD a greater influence
for peace than did its predecessor, as i'm.
mediately following that of 1899 Russia
was plunged into the most disastrous war
it has ever known, and whipped clear out
of its boots by Japan. Perhaps after the
adjournment of the second conference the
Mikado may work up scrap with Uncle
Sam over fancied grievances occurring
in San Francisco, and try to knock the
stufing out of our Uncle the way he did

Bryan On The Issues.

Trusts, the railroad and the tariff will
be the issues in the Presidential campaign,
in the opinion of William ]. Bryan as
expressed in an interview. Asked to give
his idea of progressive democrat, he
replied:
"In every country there are two ex-
tremes in politics-the radical and the
conservative. 1t is the aim of the pro-
gressive Democrat to steer middle course
between the two and TO take up all great
measures and solve them. This year /
find the Democratic party to be in ex-
cellent condition and more united than
ever, while, on the contrary, the Repub-
licaus are divided. There are two
elements in the Republican party. one of
which might call the extremists and
the other the stand patters,' the latter
representing those people who have put
their hands in other peoples pockets and
wish to keep them there"
"The financial issue is not the same as
it was in 1896. 1t is not due to the Re-
publican party, however, but to natural
causes, such as the worlds increase of
gold supply, which has accomplished in a
measure what tried to accomplish in the
campaign of 1896. As a matter of fact.
we are all repudiators now. The dollar
of today is not the dollar of 1896. The
dollar of today is at least 80 per cent less
in purchasing power than it was in 1896.
The cost of living has greatly increased,
so that the face value of dollar today
does not at all compare with the purchas-
ing ability of II years ago."
On the question of railroads. Mr..
Bryan said he was glad of an opportunity
TO commend the action of President Roose-
velt in the direction of railroad regulation.
ut does not make any difference that
the President and do not belong to the
same political party" said he. 81 am
very glad that he has seen fit to take ad-
vantage Of the plank that we put in our
platform. 1t was made for use, and
am glad someone was able to use it and
to that eud to assert that anyone may use
it who can. I am sure the people of this
land will never deal as unjustly with the
railroads as the railroads have dealt with
the people, nor will they show towards
the railroads any such hostility as would
deny the railroads a fair return. What
the farmer contends is that the railroads
are overvalued and that they are forced
to pay taxes on that generalization. ask
that You unite with the farmer to give
him Just rates and TO free him from extor-
tionate rates."

Admiral Schley, while in full sympathy
with the objects of the forthcoming Peace
conference at the Hague, does not look
for universal peace and disarmament
throughout the nations of the earth at any
time in the immediate future, as evidenc-
ed by his address before the graduates of
Jacob Tome Institute, at Port Deposit, on

pressed the belief that ''the day was far
distant when the lion and the lamb can
