Bates Out Of Delegation Contest
LOdge for NOn-InsfructiOn.

Boston. April THE political atmosphere in
Massachusetts, far the Republicans are
concerned was somewhat cleared to-day by the
withdrawal of ex-C Governor John L. Bates one
of the, five candidates for four places on the at
large delegation to the Chicago convention. and
ry the announcement from Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge that he agreed with Senator ". Murray
Crane in favor of leaving the delegates unin-
structed and of omitting any resolutions at the
state convention in favor of any one Presidential
candidate
There had been indications that the state con-
yention would see a spirited contest among the
five candidates for delegates-at-larse. There
was a practical agreement thai two of these
places should go to Senators Lodge and Crane
but it was expected that the delegates would be
split up over the other three candidates. ex-Gov
ernors Bates and Long and Colonel S. Q. Big
new Governor BateS's withdrawal to-day prac-
ticalIy settled that question.
Notwithstanding Senator Lodges statement
to-day, the adherents of Secretary Taft stated
that they would continue their efforts to pledge
the four delegates to vote for their candidate at
Chicago.

Washington. April There is regret in official
circles here over the somewhat sensational CHAR
acter Of the dispatches which have been printed
regarding the protest of United States Consul fis-
er at Harbin against certain proposed regulations
of the Naachurian Railroad. It is emphatcally as
serted that the Secretary Of Stete is not at all
concerned regarding the course or good faith OF
Russia in Manchuria and that the regulatloh
against which Consu, Fisher protested. and Whicl
has not vet put IN force, was isused soiey Dy
the railroad which. under its lease not only OF d
roadbed but Of the narrow zone through WhiCn
heroad passes exercises administrative functions
EuU details have yet reached Washington
although had the incident been regarded as OF III
1ernatjonaI Importance Consul Fisher Wouid long
before now have been instructed TO cable then--
II is regarded as entirely likely that the railroad
has exceeded somewhat its authority. but no fear
is e.pressed that the Russian government VIII
s11pport it in its position if wrongdoing can be
shown.
II is REGARDED here entirely possible that IN
what NAV be termed the reconstruction period IN
Nanchuria. during which conditions destroyed or
created by the recent must be readJuSted, frlc-
ton will occur time TO time between the rail-
way officials and the representatives OF THIS coun-
fry, but confidence is expressed that in every in
Stance the Russian government will eventually up
hold the equities, if they be against the
contentious of its citizens, the owners of the
Manchuran Railway.

BLOW FOR MR.. JACKSON
JURY ATTACKS OSBORNE.
Tells of Being Misled in Ice Trust
Inquiry.

The special grand jury which investigated
the charges against the American Ice Com
pany handed up to Justice Bowling Yesterday
presentment in which the representatives OF
the Attorney General who conducted that in
quiry were practically charged with attempting
TO deceive the grand jury in several matters
At the end of the Dresentment it reads, The
grand jury deprecates that the representa- tlVes
of the Attorney General should have consid-
cred it their duty under their oaths of office to
attempt to take the consideration of this case
from it. should attempt TO mislead it as to the
nature of the proceedings before it and should
attempt to mslead it to the reasons for the
desire discontinue the proceedings These
facts we respectfully submit, with thanks TO
the court for its advice and guidance.
1t was nearly six o'clock when the grand
jurors appeared before Justice Bowling to hand
up their presentment. After it had been read
the court thanked the members for their work
and excused them to April 20
The first part of the presentment briefly re
cites the history of the Ice Trust inquiry and
how the grand jury interpreted its duties in this
connection.
ON March o. the presentment states. the
Deputy Attorney General Games w. OSBORNE
Informed that he had virtually concluded
the presentation of the evidence and that on
March 8 he would sum up the case and submit
it to for action.
Instead of doing this, however, the present
ment asserts that March 10 the Deputy
Attorney General appeared and announced that
he desired to withdraw the matter from the
jury's further consideration. giving as his rea-
son that any indictments found by it would be
open to serious question as to Their validity
because Mr.. Osborne said that quorum of
the jury had heard all the evidence.
The presentment then tells Of its submitting
the question to the court and then deciding to
continue the inquiry. The document continues:
we then heard for the first time from the
Deputy Attorney General that he could not pro-
ceed and wished to have the case withdrawn
from US because there were many witnesses
from Maine and along the Hudson whose testl-
1nony he desired to introduce, and that TINS
would take too much of our time. We were as
tonshed at these statements, especially in view
OF. the fact that he had Informed us only few
days before that he had virtually finished his
case and that he preparing the 1ndlct-
