Government Says Such Plea

Chicago, ILL.,, April 15.-Despite the
overwhelming proof Of its violation OF
the Elkins law, as shown by the YER
dict returned against it in the United
States district court Saturday night,
the Standard Oil company has not
given up.
Will Take Every Advantage.
No legal te~chnicality is to be owe
looked by its attorneys, and the case
will be kept in the courts as long as
possible.
Two Motions to Argue.
Within a few days Judge Lands
will be asked to fix a time to hear
arguments on the motion for a new
trial. If this motion is overruled, the
defense will present a motion in arrest
Of judgment. The argument of the de-
Tense will be that in accepting the
6-cent rate the Standard Oil company
committed only one violation Of the
Elkins act and that the contention Of

Reply of Government.

Should the judge sustain the action

Remarkable Story Made Public This
Morning That Thaw Discharged
Delmas During the Case and After
wards Refused to Permit Him to
Retire-PecuIiar Stories of Would
Be Lynchins Bee in the South.

New York. April 15.-Interest in the
Thaw case now centers about the prob
able change he will make in his staff
OF lawyers. While no official an
nouncement is made. the information
comes from the lawyers themselves
that changes have been made and
others will follow. Delmas, it is stat
ed, has severed all connection with
the case.
A Peculiar Story.
In this connection the story of the
remarkable proceeding Of Thaw at a
critical period of the trial Is published
here today. The story recites that
when the trial was resumed after the
report of the lunacy commission, Del
mas called DR.. Hamilton to the stand.
He was about to question him when
he received a note from Thaw, which
read: you are no longer in charge
of my case"
Lawyer Was Surprised.
Delmas was surprised and secured
the courts permission to confer with
his client, the story states, and Thaw
told him: You are no. going to make
those men testify that l am insane. l
am sane and you know it. You are no
longer in charge of the case"
Should Begin His Address.
Delmas asked Thaw what he wanted
him to do, and asked leave to retire
from the case. Thaw refused per-
mission, and instructed him to begin
his summing up.
Two Out for Good.
Daniel O'Reilly makes the announce
ment that he is now counsel of record
and will take active charge hereafter.
Delmas and Gleason, according to
OReilly, are out for good.
Only One Re-engased.
O'Reilly says he is the only one of
the Thaw lawyers who have been re-
engaged SO far. He says he will move
within a week to have Thaw released
on bail. and says he expects to sue
coed.

MATTER OF AUDITING INCREASED SALARY
Audstor Directs Letter to Attorney General
Asking Whether or not the State Laws A.
low Him to Pay Certain Officers increased
Salaries as enacted BY Last Legislature.

OLYMPIA, April 4.-In order that
the courts of the state may have an OPP
portunity to pass squarely upon the
question of the right of state officials
and employees, to share in the salary
advances made by the last legislature,
Attorney General Atkinson will prob
ly not give State Auditor Clausen an
official opinion on the stand taken by
him against such payments. The re-
suit will be that the state auditor will
refuse to audit the vouchers for the
increased salaries and the interested
officials may then bring mandamus
proceedings and have the case deter
mined.
Attorney General Atkinson has in.
formally advised the auditor that a
casual investigation of the decision of
the courts of states wherein the same
questions have been passed upon, espe.
cially cases where the line was drawn
between officials and employees of the
state. Many of the states having con.
stitutonal provisions similar to that OF
Washington have held that appointive
officers are state officials. The attorney
general believes that the Washington
state courts have not sufficiently passed
upon the question as to remove the
doubt, and he therefore favOrs taking
the matter into court.
Auditor Clausen, in letter to the
attorney general, made the following
request:
1.-The last legislature MAJ de raises in
salaries of the following officers:
"First--In an elective office, to.wit;
Commissioner of public lands.
"Second-In appointive offices for
fixed terms, to.wit: Members OF the
board of control and others.
"Third in the matter of employees
who are not appointed for any fixed
term, to-wit: Deputy superintendent OF
public instr uction and Others
"Will you kindly advise me whether
the above acts are constitutional or not,
and if | am justified in auditing and
allowing said increased salaries.

SELECTION OF TREES.
An Important Point In PropnEating
Fruit Trees.

An Important Point In PrOpnEating
Fruit Trees.
Here is an important fact in the
propagation of trees. There is a diff
ference in the different parts of the
tree to assimilate the food which the
tree will supply and which it may sup
ply in the greatest abundance, said
George T. Powell at meeting of New
York farmers, as reported in American
Cultivator.
You observe that the roots of the diff
ferent trees in the illustration differ
considerably. The principle is this
that In the propagation Of trees there
is a difference in the individuality Of
each tree, as | have already stated
Some trees are stronger, will mature
earlier and produce fruit earlier than
others. If it Is desired to grow the

pin, it is yet possible to do so under
present conditions The principle is to
study the conditions in the tree. Some
have stronger roots than others and
are especially enabled t. feed the tree
more literally. The point Is to take
the strongest type of tree which is
known. which is ascertained Ly spe-
cial study, and then take buds from the
Esopus Sptzenberg, the Newtown Pip
pin or the Tompkins County King, all
of which represent fine types, and
transfer them to the harder type Of
tree. | began fifteen years ago along
this line and have had sufficient time,
of course, to get results. The method
of budding a tree is shown in the Illus
tration on the chart,
