PRESIDENT ATTACKED
BY Lawyer Emery on otteranees o.
Improper Use Of Injunctions.

New York, May 20.-President
Roosevelt was assailed by spehho'
today's session Of the National Asso-
citation of Manufacturers for MS W.
terances about the improper use VI
lniunctions The speaker, James a.
emery general counsel for the ma
tional counsel for industrial detence'
said the President had impeached the
whole judiciary of the Unlted o.a'.'
without giving facts upon WHICH, ~
ilnpeach one judge. FOR lour OF h''
years." said he, there has peeii
general attempt to push TINS lapor ies :
islation, as inimical as il is. for three
wears past it has been stated ana re-
iterated in Executive messages liia'
the right of injunction has been mis-
used against labor and that there mas
be.n wide abuse Of the injunction.
Now LET IFS look into this and find out
if If is true. How many injunctions.
for instance, have there been issued
hy courts in the last five years? There
have been issued only 32S inJunctlohs
and but 20 of them in labor disputes.
That is the truth.
"Never before has the judiciary or a
country been attacked without 1actS
to back it up. Now those who attack
the iudiciary--how many injunctions
do they complain of in 10 years? just
49,
an all these IS cases only one in
junction has been modified by the
United States supreme court. In IL
cases then they have either not APP
pealed or have been defeated. That is
the record In no other department OF
law have there been so few. Wherever
does the President get his evidence
upon which to arraign the judiciary
for the improper issuance of injunc-
tions? He has failed to give the facts
upon which to impeach one judge and
he has thus impeached the whole jul
dietary of the United States"

Institute Experts Predicted.

New York, May 2O-The fate that
the physicians at the Pasteur Institute
predicted him on Monday came to
William II. Marsh of Brooklyn late
today. when the well-to-do manufac-
turer died of hydrophobia. His end was
peaceful as he was put under the in
iluenca of opiates early in the day and
was kept free from consciousness Of
pain to the last.
Mr.. Marsh contracted hydrophobia
while caring for an injured water
spaniel Not suspecting at first he be-
came worried about his condition on
Saturday when symptoms resembling
those of hydrophobia developed. BY
that time, however, the disease had
progressed so far that there was no
hope of checking it and when he ap-
piled for treatment at the Pasteur
Institute in this city Monday he was
told that nothing could be done for
him and that his death was only q
question of a few hours.
Mr.. Marsh bore up bravely and
husied himself winding up his personal
affairs until the paroxysms which
began to seize him induced the adj
ministration of opiates. In his inter-
walls of freedom from pain, he babe

II believe that It is to the edincatioll

believe that, so far as our people give

a great majority of them welcome inc

may come from some Christian men VINO
are also Gods prophets or leaders In

CAPITAL JOTTINGS.

The comptroller of the currency
Wednesday issued a call for the con-
dition of national banks at the close
of business on May IA. inst
Announcement was made at the
White House Wednesday that Pres
ident Roosevelt had signed the bill
directing the restoration on gold and
silver coins of the motto I'm God VIC
Trust"
The Republican members of the
House met in conference "Wednesday
night to determine what should be the
attitude of the majority toward en-
actment at these session of legislation
modifying the power OF the federal
courts to issue injunctions. but failed
to reach an agreement and adjourned
until Tuesday night. 1t is apparently
a forgone conclusion that if the eau
Gus agrees upon a bill it will not ex-
coed the scope of the Payne bill
and Republican leaders expressed
grave doubts that any measure will be
passed at this session. Littlefield OF
Maine. Jenkins of Wisconsin and Par
ker of New Jersey, argued against any
legislation. Townsend of Michigan
Madison of Kansas and Sterling OF
Illinois took the opposite side in the
debate.
The appointment of currency COM
mission to he composed of nine SEN
ators and nine members OF the House
will be provided for in a bill which
Senator Aldrich will introduce in the
Senate Thursday and if this is passed
by Congress it will comprise all of the
financial legislation that will be en-
acted at the present session. This
course was decided upon Wednesday
by the conferees on the Aldrich-Vree-
lard currency bill at final conference
which demonstrated beyond question
that there is no hope of getting an
agreement between the Senate and the
House on an emergency measure. I'm
doub,edly this decision means that
leaders in Congress are determined
uron a final adjournment of Congress
next Saturday.
