Judge Issues a Statement When Argument On Case IS Con
 cluded
PRESIDENT TAFT. ROOSEVELT AND OTHERS INTERESTED
 FINAL OUTCOME
By Associated Press.


 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. H. That the sO-ealled Panama libel case" was more or less of a political mature, was the comment of Judge Anderson of the United States dis trict court at the close of the argu- ment today in the case of Charles Williams and Delavan Smith, pro prietors of the Indianapolis News, whom the government is seeking to have removed to the District of Co., lumbia for trial
 Judge Anderson said he did not wish to be understood as having formed premeditately his opinion but desired to point out the trend of the argument so as to bring out whether this was not the probable cause of the indictment of the journalists for criminal libel
 The basis of the action was ar tieles which intimated graft in the $2S,O00,0OO sale of the Panama canal zone to us by a French company.
 The judge declared he doubted if it could be shown that the defend ants had any malicious forethought to constitute libel.

MILLIONAIRE IS LOSER OM
 APPEAL
By Associated Press.

BY ASSOciau2u ETcs1
 NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-The United States circuit court of appeals af- firmed today the decision Of the lower court sentencing Charles W. Morse to 15 years in the federal penitentiary at Atlanta.
 At the offices Morse's attorney stated that the ease would be taken to the United States supreme court.
 Morse took the news of his de- eision calmly and went with the mar shal to prison without handeuffs. One of the finaneier's keenest re- grets at being forced to return to prison is the interruption of his beaver-like struggle to rebuild his fortune. During his liberty under bail he had been elected TO the presidency of the Metropolitan Steam ship company and the Hudson Nari- gstion company.
 Morse is credited with having met the bulk of his debts. The court of appeals granted a stay of exeeu tion of forty days to permit of the presentation of his case to the sn- preme eourt.

 WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. H. Tomorrow will probably see the de- termination of the question of wheth- CT Charles Crane will resign the post of minister to China or be permitted to resume his journey to Pekin.
 Silence was maintained today. See retary of State Knox and Crane would not discuss it. It is be- lieved the whole matter will be re- ferred to President Taft. Much dis eussion has arisen here regarding the possible effect of the relations of the United States and the premature announcement of a possible protest by this government against the China Japanese treaty for which Crane is held responsible.

Roosevelt Mentioned.

Theodore Roosevelt, Charles P- Taft, President Taft, William Nelson Cromwell, J. P. Morgan and others were mentioned in the articles.
 "The press has a public duty to perform" Judge Anderson said, "and in political discussions it seems to me conception of libel should be diff ferent from the conception in the ease of libel on private persons"
 Judge Anderson added that if a set of Americans went to France and bought securities from the French Canal company for $12, 900, as al legged, and then sold them to the United States for $4O,OO0,OO0, 1t should be "regarded as a nasty piece of business,' but in no sense a crime.
