Butte. July 7.-The mystery of the
death of James Jones, known as Jack
OBrien, was cleared UP this afternoon
Albert S. Jones. colored, known as
Rusty and Andrew Thomas Howard,
also colored, acknowledged that the
dead man was in the cabin occupied
by them near the Mary Louise mire

ministered several shots" of drugs to
him and that he became seriously i'll
and died the next morning at 8 o'clock.
They assert positively that they do not
know who threw the dead man into
the shaft, but say that he was re-
moved Saturday evening under the
cover of darkness While both were
absent from the cabin. The confession
OF the two men was made in the pres
ence of Chief Quinn, Chief of Detec-
tives Murphy and Detective "Swede''
Murphy.
Jones said: Jones came to the
cabin Friday evening and was quite
drunk. He asked for a tshot" and I
gave him one. Howard was present
and there was also another cclored
man. | only gave him one dose. Tho
dead man got several shots" during
the night and early Sunday morning.

was going to die. I left the cabin at
o'clock Saturday morning and he was
still alive. He died at 8 o'clock, I

BILE. ! don't know who took the body
out of the cabin and put it into the
shaft
Howard was not as communicative
as Rusty" Jones An examination of
the left arm of Jones reveals half a
dozen or more needle marks. William
Jones, brother of the deceased, arrived
in the city today from Missoula. He
positively identified the body as that
of his brother. How Jones came into
possession of a miners union card
with the name of John Redmond on it
Is explained by the fact that Redmond
says that Jones stole it out of his room
along with pair of trousers. 1t is
said that Jones had become friendly
with woman of the underworld and
that she had cast aside another man
for him, thus making the former sec
an enemy of Jones' The police
are today endeavoring to locate this
woman In the hope that she may be
able to throw some light on the
tragedy.

CON TROL BY STATES
OF COMBINES
DISCUSSED
ATTORNEY GENERAL WICKER
SHAM TELLS HOW CORPORAL
TlONS MAY BE MANAGED.

Paducah, Ky, July 7.-State con-
troll Of corporations doing an inter
state business was discussed in ar
address before the State Bar associa
tioir by sfsnfarey General Wickersham
in this city tonight. The address, tax
en- as outlining the attitude of the
present national administration to-
ward the trusts, was notable chiefly
for it's recommendation that congress
should enact a law providing for ma
tionally created corporations TO carry
on Interstate commerce.
'Of course, many will object to the
centralizing tendency of a national
law authorizing the formation of cor
porations to carry on interstate busi-
ness" said Mr. Wickersham, but
such law seems to me to be the in
evitable result of economic conditions
An important feature was the speak
ers effort to show the separate states
how they may control the business of
foreign corporations in the limits.
Dealing with the citizenship and
standing of corporations, Mr. Wicker
sham quoted decisions that they were
not citizens in the meaning Of federal
constitutional requirements--"th citi-
zens of each state should be entitled
to all the privileges and immunities of
citizenship of the states"---that the
power of state to prevent a foreign
corporation from continuing to do
business is but the eorrelatiye of It's
to prevent such corporations
from rnlDiDp. n or fa. that 1,a
state in passing on these questions
might take cognizance of acts done
elsewhere.
Limitations.
"It may be safely asserted" he said
that the only limitations upon the
powers of the states to exclude for
eign corporations entirely from doing
business within their territory and to
prescribe such conditions as they may
deem proper to the carrying on by
them of such business are, first, that
the regulations so prescribed shall not
deprive the foreign corporations of
without due process of law
or deny to them equal protection of
the laws; second, that such regula-
tions shall not amount to an inter
ference with interstate commerce or
with other business of a federal nat
ure.
II has seemed to me that an eff
fective method of legisIating on this
subject would be to enact such laws
that no foreign corporation should be
licensed to do business within a state
if 80 per cent of its capital stock or
upwards was owned or held by any
other corporation, domestic or foreign;
and that if. at any time after obtain
ing such a license, more than so per
cent of the capital stock of such
corporation should be acquired by an
other corporation, the license should
be ipso facto vacated.
"The device Of the holding corpora
tion is the only thing which has made
possible the rapid growth of the great
trusts and monopolies and such a law
would go far toward their destruc-
ton
