Dead Child in Hand-grip.

The chemists at the state iabora-
tory of hygiene are busy investiga-
ting the cause of the death of an in |
FAINT which died while being carried |
in an extension grip from Wells River
to Manchester, n. H, by its father,
Charles E. Barrie, who is now under |
arrest in Chelsea. Evidences of a
drug which is used in soothing syrups
have been found in the organs of the

that here might have been foul play
in the case. The report Of the chem
ists will be made soon before the

For Better Roads.
Barton, Vt.
MR.. EDITOR:

Mr.. EDITOR:
Anyone who has occasion to travel
over our hill roads during this season
of drifting storms and fierce winds,
especially with loaded team, cannot
fail to see the advantage few rods of
storm fence would be in certain places
where the snow now gets into the
road in heaps from four to nine feet
deep.
Through February of this year men
b i've had to spend five days of each
week in shoveling and leveling these
drifts to make it possible to get over
| them with the snow roller, in many
cases making the hills much sleeper
than they are when the ground isbare.
In the spring these places have to be
cut in some way at heavy expense,
or more often they are not cut out,
which makes the roads unsafe and
almost impossible from three to six
weeks.
If even ten per cent of our present
highway ldA COuIO NC uSSO cdCu year
for ten years in the building of storm
fences in places where they are most
needed there would be a decided
change for the better, both in thu
D roads and in the per cent of tai
g which we have to raise for the high
way.
v We do not hesitate to use none,
9 to protect our own personal propert.
O from storm or fire but let this matte
10 that means so much to all taxpayer
n go along in kind of haphazard wa
J. which certainly is no credit to til
town but puts US in bad way com
, pared with some of the towns aroun
: US that are not credited with as nuc
l. monsy as this one is. Let Us wake U

MOTHER Of JAIL
= :. BABY ACQUITTED
FREED BY A JURY FROM THE
CHARGE OF MATRIclDE.

Chicago Nov 19.-Mrs. Mary Sla-
dek, who during her trial on the
charge of poisoning her mother, Mrs.
Mary Mette. has attracted moref than
usual attention as the mother of the
jail baby was acquitted Saturday
by jury in Judge Chytraus' court.
She is still under indictment for the
death of her father. The deaths oc-
Cured early this year, the entire
Mette family, consisting of the father,
mother and three sons, having be-
come violently i'll after eating food
prepared by Mrs. Sladek The motive
alleged was a desire on her part to
profit by insurance carried by her
parents. Her family, including the
husband, turned against Mrs. Sladek
after her indictment and she was
alone in her fight for acquittal.
A pathetic feature of the case was
the birth to Mrs. Sladek at the county
hospital eight weeks ago of girl
baby BY special order of the court
Mrs. Sladek was removed from the
Jail in order that the child might not
bear an unnecessary stigma.

WALSH WANTS

LAWYERS FOR ALLEGED BANK
THIEF MAKE STRENUOUS
PLEA.
CLAIM RESTS ON USE OF BOOKS
IN GRAND JURY iNvEs-
TIGATION.

Chicago, Nov. ia long-drawn-out
argument between opposing counsel,
in which the court took part from time
to time, over what is regarded as
practically plea for immunity be-
cause the books of the defendant had
been used in the federal grand jury
investigation of his affairs, consumed
the afternoon session of the court in
the trial of John r. Walsh on the
charge of having Incorporated
funds of banks with which he was as
ISOLATED. The question of immunity
was not settled when adjournment
until Monday was taken, Judge Ander-
son announcing that he would reserve
his decision until later.
The immunity plea was based up
on the fact that the books of the
Southern Indiana railway were used
as evidence by the federal grand jury
in it's examination, which resulted in
the indictment of Walsh, and were
about to be used by the government
in the present trials. The books were
being examined and entries in them
read by National Bank Examiner
Moxey under a steady fire OF objec-
lions from the other side when inter-
rupted with the statement that no
Roadway was being made.
Let the jury be excluded" he
said, "and we will settle this ques-
ton right now"
Attorney Miller, of counsel for
Walsh, declared that he was not
ready to meet issue and it is expect
ed that he will be given an opportu-
nifty Monday to cite authorities in
support of his contention.

QUESTION OF RIGHT OF LABOR
COMBINATION TO RUIN
BUSINESS.
AMERICAN FEDERATIoNS "UN-
FAIR" LIST ATTACKED IN I'M
PORTANT SUIT.
DEFIANCE OF POWER OF THE
COURTS BY UNIONS ALSO
INVOLVED.

washington, Nov, 19.-The case of
the Buck Stove & Range company
against the American federation of
labor, involving issues of great i'm.
portance to labor, was resumed in the
olstrict supreme court yesterday.
The suit is for an Injunction against
the publication of the plaintiff COM
panys name in the unfair" list.
Former United States Assistant At
torney General James M. Beck made
the main argument for the company.
He stated that the case involved the
question of whether an organization.
numbering nearly 100000 men, could
combine to destroy the business of an
individual unless he consented to run
his factory as the American fedora.
ton of labor dictated.
He referred to intimations of the
federation executive officers in the Of
fetal organ of the federation that
their membership would defy an in
junction if granted, and claimed that
this raised distinct issue not only
as to the right of manufacturer to
run his own business as he saw fit
but as to the authority and dignity of
the court to restrain acts of doubtful
validity pending final hearing.
He reviewed legal decisions in state
and federal courts and claimed that
they established that a combination
to inJure man in order to compel
him to .accede to demands, which he
was at liberty to disregard, was un.
lawful. Mr.. Beck disclaimed any in
tention to question the right of a la
Dor to organize, and said he regarded
such organizations when conducted
lawfully as highly useful to the la
boring man and the public at large.
He conceded the legal right of la
boring men to strike for any rea-
son, good or bad, but claimed that
the law drew a dead line on any at
tempt to prevent other laboring men
from working upon such terms as
they pleased, or any employer from
employing labor upon terms and
condition mutually agreeable to the
contracting parties.
Mr.. Beck also claimed that the
action of the federation in the mat
ters complained of was illegal under
the Sherman antitrust law.

leadership of the democratic party in

by kniting him as he did Parker"
bryan's acceptance was no more
than he had expected, however great,
he regretted the action. because he
thought Bryan could no longer create
enthusiasm, as he had been before
the people too many times. Asked as
to the assertion often made that the
next president would be Roosevelt or
Bryan, Watterson said the nomina.
ton OF Roosevelt was all the Bryan
supporters wanted because they could
then go to the people on a third term
slogan. Bryan could carry New Eng.
land on such campaign, he thought.
Roosevelt would Msxfcanize this gov.
eminent, holding himself as greater
than Washington.
AS for himself, much as he dislilled
to do so, he would vote for Bryan
against Roosevelt in such a dilemma.
He believed, however, that Roosevelt
would decline another nomination as
he had nothing to gain and the repub.
iican party had many men of presi-
Genital calibre. He mentioned espec.
tally Taft, Hughes and Crane of Mas
sachusetts. He said the latter would
make strong man on the argument
that New England had not had n
