LIABILITY LAW IS
VALID IN HAWAII
United States Supreme Court
Says 1t May Be Applied
in Territories.

WASHINGTON. November 15.-The
Employers Liability Law of 1906 was
today declared TO be constitutional in
Territories of the United States and
the District of Columbia by the Su-
preme Court of the United States, de-
spite the fact that more than a year
ago this law was declared to be uncon-
stitutional when applied TO the States.
The question arose in a suit for dam
ages for the death of an employee
named Guiterez on the FL Paso &
Northeastern Railroad in New Mexico.
The act to which reference is made
above was passed June II, 1906. Dur
ing the year following many decisions
were rendered by the lower courts, some
holding the law valid, some declaring
it void. Finally, a judgment was rend-
cred by the Supreme Court on January
8, 1908, holding that insofar as the
States were concerned the law was I'M
constitutional. The court was closely
divided, the vote standing five to four.
Justice White. who read the decision,
asserted that the act was an invasion
of States rights, and as such was in
valid. Following this decision, on April
%, 1908, second liability act was pass
ed by congress and this as yet has not
come up for final decision in the
highest tribunal. 1t has arisen, how
ever, in the Connecticut courts, and by
them was declared invalid, on July 20,
1909. An appeal is now pending before
the United States Supreme Court.

FIuffy's Smiles Won Her Audience.

Fluffy came, she saw, she conquered.
Fluffy's smile is her fortune. Her laugh
ter and wit are 50 spontaneous, she bub-
bles over with good nature and fun.
Fluffy has neoer exercised the frown
wrinkles and they are foreign to her
physonpomy. Fluffy is one great bunch
of good nature. AS the king OF the swap
pers convention would say Fluffy is a
''sorrel top, a high hooker, a high locker,
and q four year lold.
Fluffy is one of the kind that makes a
whole show by her lonely, however, the
personel of the play was fully up to stand
ard, especially Knuckles. Knuckles is
one of the kind that would butt in through
a boiler plate. he has all the slang OF the
costermongers, all the jar words OF the
wharf rats, all the lingo Of the leisure lad
dies boiled down to meet all exegencies
and uses them on all occasions.
It is refreshing to hear knuckles express
himself. his rabbid metaphors bite like
good old cider.
Fluffy and KnuckIcs make a pair, better
vet a full house. Go to see Fluffy if you
have chance, her smile is good to see.
The opera house was well filled on Mon
dav night and tho %conennsus of opinion
was that Fluffy Rulfles was fully up to the
high standard of plays that we have been
favored with up to this time this season.
The play was the kind That young folks
wont to Join and follow and that older folk
like to look at even through their fingers.

MORSE'S MILLIONS ALL GONE
HAVE ESTATE ONCE
WORTH 3o,ooo,ooo
Financier Under Prison Sentence for
Violating Banking Laws Testifies
in supplementary Proceedings.

NEW YORK, May Charles w.
Morse. the former banker. who is now
in the Tombs prison under sentence for
violation of the national banking law,
has not share of stock, a bond or a
estate of an estimated value of s3O-
100000, according to evidence which he
gave in supplementary proceedings made
public today.
Moore was at one time one of the largest
holders of securities of the $6O,OO0,OOO
Consolidated Steamship Company and
controlled three national banks. He testi-
fed In the supplementary proceedings
that he had given all his property to
creditors to secure his debts. and declared
that he did not know whether the cred
itors had sold him out but asserted that
If there was any surplus derived from
such sales it would only so to other
creditors who have obtained judgments
against him. and that he personally would
receive none Of the proceeds of the
sales.
Mr.. Morse said that the largest amount
Of bank stock which he formerly owned
was hypothecated "in some twenty-odd
hundred banks through Moseley & Co."
He stated that he owed E. j. Berwind
81 100000, and that he gave Mr.. BerWind
s., 100000 of Consolidated Steamship stock
and his residence on 9TH avenue, all OF
which, Mr.. Morse said, was insufficient
to cover his Indebtedness to Mr.. Ber-
wind. Morse gave other property on 9Th
avenue to Moseley & Co. to pay off loans
made to him.
Mr.. Morse said that no member of his
| family had any property in which he
was interested. that he had no claims
against anybody, that he never loaned
money personally and that he never kept
a set of books.

.CLAPP WARNS ALDR|CH
Demands. That Platform Prom
ise Be Carried Out.
by "DOWNWARD REvISION''
or Two Years Hence Enemies
Will Do the Trick.
WHERE ARE WEw SAYS HE
Minnesotan Threatens to Pack His
Grip and Jump the Town If
Farce Continues.

1t was Senator C1app OF Minnesota who
read lecture to Senator Aldrich, chair
man of the finance committee. and the
today. He joined the other republican
Observation-Disclosures In warning Mr.. Aid
rich that unless the promise OF the plat
form of 1908 was kept the tariff would be
revised by the enemies of protection two
years hence.
Mr. Clapp started off by asking: "Where
are we?" and saying that some mighty
strange doctrines had been propounded
in the Senate in the last few days. He
said he was a protectionist, but favored
the promised revision downward 1t
would be impossible in his opinion for
the democrats and "progressive'' repub-
licans to join forces all along the line,
owing to the difference in their principles.
He appealed to the high-protection ad-
vocates to do the trick.
"Howling Farce" Says He.
He ridiculed the idea that the platform
of the republican party last fall did not
declare for revision downward in spiri,
and was not SO understood.
IF it meant that we were to stand by
the Dingley law he shouted. then we
are confronted by the ridiculous spectacle
Of the chief executive calling US in special
session to reaffirm for all time something
that doesn't need reaff1rming. II 1t did
not mean revision downward the whole
thing Is a farce.
IF l thought we were here to reaffir m
the Dingey law, I would pack my grip
and go home at once, for l am not re-
'quired by my oath as a senator to par
ticipate in such farce
He Labels "the Enemy"
1t was rumored, continued the Mime
sotan, that those who promised revision
downward would not be able to carry out
their promise. He didn't believe that,
but thought when the bill was complete
it would be a fair reduction.
"The enemy of protection today" he
declared, lis the man who having the
power, abuses it. You may not heed
the clamor today, but in two years You
will be driven to 1t. and will learn that
the people are determined to have it.
Look Two Years Ahead!
If you don't do it now YOU will find
that in two years the enemies of pro-
lection will revise the tariff. You will
either redeem that promise now or the
people will arise In their wrath and strike
down the whole principle for which we re-
publicans contend

Mr.. Montfort used his little son as a
model. Some of the firms using the boys
picture are national advertisers. and thus
the face of the lad has looked from
street cars. newspapers, magazines and
bilboards upon residences of hundreds of
towns and cities.
In one of his most widely known poses
the boy is smiling as brand of talcum
