New York, Oct. Sit became known
here today that three army officers,
said to be important witnesses in 1.-The
Hams murder case, and friends of Cap
tain Peter c. Hams, jr., who is await
ing indictment on the charge of shoot
ing w. Z. Annis, have been transferred
from Fort Hamilton by order of the
war department to posts outside the

Consequently, they will not be avail

it's session Monday. These officers are
Lieutenant Farnsworth, transferred 10
Fort Stevens, Ore; and Captain Pat
ten and Lieutenant Andrus to the ar
tillery school at Fortress Monroe.
District Attorney Darrin. who with
drew the HaiIs matter from the con-
sideration of the special grand jury
yesterday, because of absence of i'm
portant witnesses" said today:
Il shall appeal to Washington at
once TO have them returned to the jur-
isdictiOn of the Queens county grand
jury. These men are familiar with the
domestic relations of the Hams family.
They are necessary in proving the
states contention that the murder was
deliberate and the work of sane men, -
Colonel Ludlow, the commanding CT
ficer at Fort Hamilton. said this after
noon that Lieutenant Andrus and Cap
tain Patten were ordered away from
that post and reported at the artillery
school at Fortress Monroe on Aug. %,
while Lieutenant Farnsworth went TO
the Pacific coast on Aug. /. He added
that as far as he knew the transfers
originated at Washington. He denied
they could have had anything to do
with the AnniS case.

THREE tickets
ARE IN FIELD
HearSt'S independence Party
Has as Sponsors 500
Republicans.
"BRYAN NATIONAL" is FILED
GIVEN CHANCE TO
VOTE FOR ELECTORS.

In petition containing ole signatures,
flled with the secretary of state at $50
o'clock yesterday afternoon, the Indepen-
ence party, founded by William Randolph
Hearst. had its birth in Utah. The Utah
godfathers of the infant party are Abner
ford and Frank Tierney of Bingham. can
didates for Hisgen electors, and P ].
Donohue of Salt Lake. candidate for con-
greSs.
The signatures which accompany the
petition are for the most part those of
Republicans who aided the cause of the
Independence party in Utah in the hope
that ii might draw votes from the Demo-
cratic party and cause such a detection
that the Republicans might retain control
of the state. More than 200 of these sig
natures were secured at a meeting of the
Young Mems Republican club on the
evening of Sept IA.
In addition to the Hearst party, the
Americans" of the state also filed two
tickets. One was the "Bryan-NationaT
ticket. which contained the names of the
Democratic presidential electors for Utah.
and the American state judicial and
county tickets. The other was the Taft
Liberal ticket, which contains the names
of the Republican presidential electors for
Utah, with the American" state. judicial
and county tickets. The secretary of
state last night certified to all of the
tickets filed. If there is any protest to
be raised this may be done any time be-
fore election.
Several senatorial and judicial tickets
were also filed yesterday including an
American senatorial ticket for the Fifth
district, comprising Summit and Wasatch
counties The petition by which the

BILL CERTIFIED TO THE
UNITED STATES SUPREME Court
Federal Circuit Court of Appeals at San Francisco Unable to
Agree Upon Application for an Injunction

Judges Gilbert, Morris and Ross of the
circuit court of appeals. In the first
instance a demurrer presented by the
government to the application for an
injunction was upheld, the judges
unanimously declining to review the
finding upon which the commission
based its refusal to permit the rate TO
be increased.
Claims of Comm ssion.
Luther NJ Walters, solicitor for the
commission, who directed the case for
the government. announced when this
decision was rendered that the suS-
tanned demurrer embodied not only the
constitutionality of the act creating the
commission, but also the right of the
commission to fix and alter railroad
rates and to review any new facts or
allegations presented in support of rate
changes before such facts or allega-
tions are carried before a court. The
demurrer also asserted the right of the
commission to fix rates without await
ing a court review of its discretion or
judgment
Late today the opposing attorneys
met in the circuit court to agree upon
the form of the questions to be sub
mitted to the higher tribunal. There
was a general belief that the case
would be set for an early hearing, and
it was considered not improbable in
view of the far-reaching consequences
of the decision, that the court would
hand down its opinion within thirty
DAYS

COERCION AND BRIBERY.
Former Republican Tactics Will Not
Be Allowed This Year.

New York, Oct. 3.-NOrman f. Mack,
chairman of the Democratic national
committee, said today, before leaving
for the west, that a special fund of
$4,000 had been appropriated and set
apart for the purpose of furnishing any
person or corporation which endeavors
to coerce employees in the national cleo
ton. Mr.. Mack explained that nu-
merous complaints had been received
by the national committee from en-
plOyes throughout the country that
they had been threatened with dis
missal if they persisted in support of
the Democratic ticket Mr.. Mack con-
tinued:
This is attempted bribery and is
punishable as such. Threats of dis
missal or to reduce wages of employees
if they vote for Mr.. Bryan. or promise
of higher wages if they vote for Mr.
Taft. is plain bribery. We are not
afraid of the effect of such tactics in
this election because the laboring man
cannot be bribed or scared into sub
mission to the will of his master in a
think it is the duty of this committee
to protect the American wOrkingman
from such methods.
1T is not advisable at the present
time to give the names Of these en-
ployes. That would be an injustice to
them. But the names of every guilty
employer will be published and full
publicity given to his case, both be-
fore and after election. The slip in the
pay envelope a few days before cleo
ton advising how to vote will not be
permitted this year, as in former cam

Bryan Tidal Wave Carries Hope to
the Democrats of Utah.

Evan R. Owen. Democratic candidate
for secretary of state was in Salt Lake
yesterday to attend a meeting of the
Democratic committee. Mr.. Owen is san
guine of Democratic success in Utah.
He declares that the northern part of
the state is a unit for Bryan and that
the Democratic state and legislative tick
cts will carry all the northern counties.
Mr.. Owen believes that not only will the
Bryan electors carry the state by large
majority. but that the entire state ticket
will be elected.
THE tidal wave" said Mr.. Owen. will
start in Cache and will sweep every coun-
" in the state. The Bryan sentiment is
growing daily and scores of Republicans
openly assert their intention of voting
for Bryan"
When asked about his own candidacy
Mr.. Owen mOdeStly said:
I will simply ride in on the wave"
Mr.. Owen is an exceptionally popular
candidate, especially in the northern part
of the state. where he adds strength to
the state ticket. He is well educated and
is we'll qualified for the position with
which the Democrats would honor him
He is a personal friend of Jesse William

time since the passage of the Hepburn
rate bill. the supreme court of the
United States will be given an oppor-
tunity to rule upon all. the practical
questions involved in the act passed by
the Fifty-ninth congress. Unable to
reach a unanimous decision upon an
application for an injunction brought
by two of the Hartman railroads, en-
bodying all vital rights and powers of
the interstate commerce commission,
including the matter of court review,
three judges of the federal circuit court
of appeals today directed that the case
be certified to the supreme court.
Decision Expected Promptly.
Relying upon the statute which expe-
dites proceedings of this character, The
attorneys in the case expect that a
final decision will be rendered prompt
ly. In the meantime. rate fixed by
the interstate commerce commission
will apply on shipments of rough lum-
Der. and the protest of northwest lum-
bermen to the commission against an
increased rate will be effective until the
supreme court rules otherwise.

cific and the Oregon & California rail-
ways for an injunction to restrain the

Scranton. Pa. Oct. 3.-Judge Archbold,
