CHARGE AGAINST ATTORNEY.
John Moss Alleged to Have Counseled
Client to Swear Falsely.

The trial OF a young woman who gave tn
name of May Young, in the Juvenile Court
yesterday afternoon, furnished a sensation
and further developments are expected
WHEN Judge kimball continues an inve sti-
CATION of the case in the Police Court to-
morrow morning. In the hearing yester-
day the defendant made grave charges of
dereliction against John Moss as a mem
Der of the bar, declaring that at his sug-
gestion, she had perjured herself in swear
ing to her age. Attorney Moss steadfastly
denied that charge, also denied compn- ity
In any plot to deceive the court.
May Young, the young woman in question.
was hrst taken before Judge kimball in
the romeo Court yesterday morning on a
charge OF being a person of evil life When
testlfying in her own behalf she told Judge
hlmbail that she was Twenty-Five e years
ola, and subsequently Attorney John Moss,
who appeared in her behalf, told the court
that she was born in August, 1891, and was,
therefore, only sixteen years old. AS tn
Juvenile Court has Jurisdiction over de-
PENDANTS under seventeen years old that
statement, if true, would take hsr out OF
the jurisdiction of the Police Court Judge
klmball at first announced that he would
take the girls own statement that she wis
twenty-three years old, and ordered her to
pay so fine or serve two months on the
farm.
I'll get out a writ of habeas corpus, be-
cause tnlS girl is only sixteen years old"
declared Attorney Moss. Later, Judge Kim
ball questioned the girl again about her
age and she said she was sixteen years
old, and his honor then directed that she
be taken before Judge DeLacy in the
Juvenile Court.
When called upon to make a statement
in the Juvenile Court, where Attorney Moss
also appeared for her, the girl repeated
that she was only sixteen years old. after
investigation Judge DeLacy concluded that
the girl was guilty as charged, and ordered
her to be committed to the House of the
Good Shepherd until she attained the age
Of eighteen years.
You can't do that, judge. because 1 am
twenty-four years old and have a hus-
band living in Scranton, Pa" the girl then
remarked, stepping to the judges bench.

Attorney Moss promptly denied the ac-
cusaton, and he left the courtroom soon
afterward. She said she had a witness
but that charge was not inquired into by
Judge DeLacy.
After making this discovery regarding the
girls age Judge DeLacy ordered the de-
PENDANT returned to the Police Court to be
tried there, and Clerk Joseph Harper was
directed to certify to Judge kimbalf Wnat
had transpired in the Juvenile Court in
Guiding the accusation by the girl.
When the matter in its latest phase was
brought to the attention of Judge kimball
yesterday afternoon he indicated his inten-
ton to investigate the case very carefully

AT THE HAGUE.
Leading Plenipotentiary Is Very
Hopeful of the Work

THE HAGUE. June pa leading pleni-
potentiary speaking tonight of the situa-
ton at the peace conference said to the
Associated Press:
THE machinery is now moving to the
general satisfaction as all the countries
are sincerely animated by a desire for a
reciprocal understanding and wish to
avoid irritating questions, finding for each
problem a formula beforehand acceptable
to all. Thus the discussions will certainly
be attended by earnest endeavor without
disagreeable incidents.
The success of this system has been rem
dered easier by the delegations being in
trusted to the most tactful and most dis
tingushed men. Therefore the American
proposition. relating to contractual debts,
which contemplates only those between pri-
Vate citizens of one country and the gov
eminent of another 1t is predicted. will be
adopted with a few slight amendments
An Eloquent Speech.
NJ Bourgeois, president of the first COM
mittee,' delivered an eloquent speech today
in favor of the principle of arbitra ton, and
produced an excellent impression. He gave
detailed survey of the arbitration con-
ventiOn OF 1899. the recent adhesion to
which of seventeen additional nations gave
1t the conservation of the civilized world.
for his donation of the peace palace, and
said since the opening of. the arbitration
court the experience of all nations had
shown that the working of arbitration
might become daily more simple
international Justice.
AS natural result of it, ne said, inter-
national justice had entered the domain of
practical realty Public opinion of ma
tions had quickly grasped it and govern
ments had become accustomed to it,
The results of the establishment of the
court were seen in the thirty-three arbi-
trauon treaties which had been concluded
since 1883 and series of incidents which
NJ Bourgeois recounted. The North sea
incident and the Venezuela affair he point
ed out, were among the cases dealt with
by The Hague court.
M Bourgeois paid a graceful compliment
to the United States and President Roose-
welt for their part in setting in motion the
new Jurisdiction. Regarding the task be-
fore the commission of perfecting the con-
vention of 1899, he observed that the rules
of 1899 might be modified to a kind of sum-
mary of procedure.

SUMMER REALLY HERE
CONTINUATION OF THE WARM
WAVE IS PREDICTED.

After sweltering Saturday with a
maximum down town temperature of So
degrees and high percentage of humidity
the sun went down in the west like q
great red ball Later in the evening the
moon was observed to be surrounded by
bright corona. Both of these signs, ac-
cording to the weatherwise, portend con-
tinuation of the warm wave that is siz-
Zing over the country.
Owing to the high humidity, conditions
the early part of last evening were almost
unbearable. AS a result many people in
dulged in outings by way of the street
cars and other conveyances to the sur
rounding resorts, and the parks were well
filled with perspiring mortals endeavoring
to get breath of fresh air.
Summer showers are predicted by the
and tomorrow, perhaps with electrical ac-
compartments. These are expected to
give only temporary relief. as the real sum-
mer weather with tropical temperatures is
expected to resume business without much
delay and make up for the lingering cool
and moist spell which fingered in the lap
OF June.
Thunder Showers Today.

kotas."

from Montana. Idaho. Utah and Wyoming
The weather there is cold-at least 20 de-
grees below the average for this season
of the year. Prof. Henry said the cold
conditions that prevailed here several days
ago have been reversed and are now in the
far west while the atmosphere here is hot
and sultry. He does not think there is
any probability of the cool wave in the west
reaching this section, as the summer tenn
lrrature has now set in for keeps.
