New York, July S.-Dr. Julian
Thomas. the aeronaut. lies in a serious
condition at Fordham hospital today
suffering from a compound fracture
of the leg and internal injuries re-
ceived in an automobile accident las,
night when the machine, carrying The
aeronaut and two ONE companions,
crashed into a trolley pole in the
Bronx. Physicians said today hat DR.
Thomas might have to suffer the I'M
putation of his leg. Miss Florence
Haas, an actress who, with Miss Grace
Rogers, was with DT. Thomas when
the accident occurred, was so seriously
injured that physicians amputated her
left leg today at Fordham hospital.
Miss Rogers was injured internally,
but probably Will recoVer.
DIR. Thomas and his friends werc
travelling at a high rate of speed down
Jerome avenue last night. Near the
entrance of Woodlawn cemetery lie

aeronaut evidently did not see in the
darkness. The machine crashed into
a heavy trolley pole and Dr. Thomas
and his two companions We're flung
out of the machine as if from a capa-
pult. The AUTOMOBILE was reduced to
scrap iron.

into more or less prominence as a re-
suit OF the inquiry which is to be
made.
The investigation about to begin Is
the direct result of the charges
brought by the Bursum crowd
against II. j. Hagerman, on his con-
n%ection with the notorious Pennsylva-
MIA Land deal and which was used az
the basis for Mr.. Hagerman's removal
by the president. 1t will be recalled
that Mr.. Hagerman delivered deeds to
these lands which a been sold by
the former administration; and that
delivery was made ON payment of a
note which was accepted by the for
mer administration as part payment
for the lands.
In seeking to lay the blame for this
land sale on Hagerman, however, the
men bringing the charges against him
opened up a Pandora's bOx from which
trouble is still flying in large Quanti-
ties. For the investigation is not to
stop with the Pennsylvania Develop
ment company transaction or Hager-
mans connection with it, but is to go
into other land transactions, among
them the Sehopberg deal, the sale Of
Sacramento mountain lands and other
sales to which reference was made in
the reports Of Mr.. Holcomb during his
former visit in New Mexico. That
such an investigation would AVE come
sooner or later there is little question,
but it has been precipitated by the
anxiety of the old machine following
to make a case against Hagerman.
The result Of the inquiry will be OF
very deep interest to New Mexico. II
is argued by those familiar with the
land transactions to be investigated
that If the casual connection of Mr..
Hagerman with the Pennsylvania De-
yelopment company deal furnished
50 q IA . an rNHa- fANH ~ r..nN. dual fAAN
the men Who made the deal or who
participated in it. in the SchOmbcrg
transaction and others must bear a far
heavier share of blame. for disposal
of these lands than Hagerman. who
merely delivered the deeds in n com
pleted transaction. Again il is pointed
cut tina if the PENNSYLVANIA Develop
ment company transaction was so bad
as to furnish ground for MI. Hager-
remOVal it and all the other
land, and particularly the timber land
deals must have been so bad that an
or actions TO restore these lands
TO the territory must stand. 1t is ru-
mored that the present investigation Is
being made with a view to furnish
evidence on which just such actions
can be brought. If this is true the in
v%estigation is likely to furnish New
Mexico people food for thought for
time to come.
The agents are not saying much,
it begins to look as though there
would be something doing in the very
near future. Witbin the past few
days half a dozen government agents
dropped into the ancient city.
and ONE N them are men who bave
beeu in the government service FOR
years. Although Santa Fe en-
Joys a reputation fdr being a delight
full place to spend the summer, it is
not at all probable that these gentle !
are here on their annual vaca-
tons.

his case to the peoples representa-
tives in the legislature.
In the first place, the people de-
mand that the lobbyist must do his
work PubIieIy-that he must state
who or what he represents-that
when he comes to influence legisla-
ton at the state capital he should do
so in the dayIieht-and that the old
practice of secret lobbying, with its
corrupting influences, shall be
stopped.
No honest interest or lobbyist can
object to such provisions. No man
who is not sent there to cOrruptly infiu-
ence legislation can object to having
his real purpose known, and to the
fullest publicity of all of his move
ments
No one cares to prohibit lobbying,
but every honest citizen and interest
does desire that the professional
lobbyist shall be prohibited from
practicing those secret and corrupt
ing influences which no intelligent
man will deny have already existed
too long for the public good.

That practice consists, as Mr.. An
