PROTEST DOES NOT VOICE
COMMITTEES SENTIMENT

Washington, D. c., Jan. 1l.-Presi-
dent Tucker of the jamestown ex-
position board has received letters and
kilograms from nearly everyone OF the
members OF the advisory committee OF the
exposition except those who signed the
protest against the alleged undue promi-
nence TO be given TO the military and
naval features OF the government exhibit.
All OF these correspondents take excep-
ton vigorously TO the criticism implied in
the protest OF the dozen signers OF the
published statement and as there are 100
members OF the advisory committee, the
exposition authorities feel that they are
privileged TO regard the protest as failing
to voice the views OF any considerable
part OF the committee.
Mr. Tucker meanwhile is doing all that
he can to induce the war and navy de-
partment officials TO hasten the arrange
ments for the encampment and the naval
display. which IL is intended shall be,
though by no means the principal, yet
among the most novel and attractive feat
ures OF the jamestown exposition.

Reports gained TO the effect that the

MOWRY CANNOT
DODGE PAYING
TO HIS WIFE

The supreme court has granted the writ
OF prohibition prayed for by Ethel =.
Mowry against Judge George n. Bliss Of
the East Providence district court
Mrs. Mowry's husband, Albert l..
Mowry. was ordered by the superior court
to pay her IS week pending the final
disposition Of her petition for divorce and
committed to the county Jail for failure
TO do so.
Some weeks ago Mr. Mowry applied 10
Judge Bliss for leave TO take the poor
debtors oath. hoping thus TO be freed
from his obligations to his wife Mrs
Mowry through her attorneys, John c.
Quinn and H. A. McKenney sought 10
prevent Mowry's release by, applying for
the writ of prohibition.
1t was claimed by Mr.. Mowry's counsel
that he was simply imprisoned for debt
and had the right 10 apply for leave 10
take the oath; but In an opinion handed
down today Judge Dubois says:
THE prisoner is not simply imprisoned
for debt. He Is imprisoned for ron-com-
pliance with the decree OF the superior
court, which has exclusive origina! turis-
diction OF the subject He was liable to
imprisonment for failure 20 comply with

IF he suffered Imprisonment under
process for contempt il would hardly be
contended that a Justice OF a district
court has Jurisdiction TO amelloratc the
conditions OF the prisoner through the In
strumentality of the law 'elatlng TO Ioor
DEBTORS. And such interference with the
execution OF the superior court would
avail him nothing for II the prisoner
should be liberated from aIs Imprisonment

because the administration Of the poor
debtors oath would in no wise have the
effect OF purging him OF his contempt"
IL Is evident that the law relating to
poor debtors is not adopted % this kind
OF case. Mr. Mowry's sole remedy is
TO apply to the superior court on a modifi-
cation of its decree.

STEAMER PONCE

arrival of the steamer Maracas al San
Juan, Porto Rico yesterday with the re-
port OF a dangerous derelict only 40 miles
north OF where the Ponce was last seen.
For nearly a week several revenue cut
ters have been securing the seas In search
OF the missing steamer.
Practically the last hope was based up
on the probability that her machinery
had been disabled and that she was
foating helplessly. waiting for assistance.
Then came the report OF the non-arrival
OF the Maracas and the sinking hope OF
friends OF passengers and crew or the
Ponce began TO rise.
When three and four days had passed
and there was no news from the Maracos,
the belief became almost general that
she had fallen IN with the Ponce and that
they would come TO port together. Those
hopes were dashed 10 the ground when
the Maraca.s slowly limped into port early
today and explained that she herself had
been the victim OF an accident and that
she had not seen the Ponce. Then came
the cable from Bermuda.
The Ponce is one of the regular steam
ers OF the New York and Porto Rico
Steamship company, plying between
Ponce, Porto Rico and New York. When
she sailed from the island on Dec. 26, she
had on board seven passengers and a crew
OF 81 men.
The last definite news received from her
before the cable today was brought here
by the sailing ship Shenandoah, which
came in on Jan. z, and reported having
spoken TO the Ponce on Dec. 2s.
