PATRICK STILL MAKES
FIGHT FOR FREEDOM
Lawyer Convicted Of Murder In
Court Today.

New York, March before the ap-
pellate division of the supreme court
today appeared Albert T. Patrick, the.
lawyer convicted of the murder by poi
son of Millionaire William Marsh Rice.
on writ of habeas corpus. His ap-
pearance before the state court is Al
continuation of his fight for liberty.
which failed in the United States SUI
preme court.
Patrick is seeking freedom on the
ground that the Communication Of his
death sentence to life Imprisonment by
tie late Governor Higgins was not
warranted in that it was change to
punishment not provided by statute
for the crime of which he was convict-
ed and that the change was to the pris-
oner's disadvantage in that it was an
imposition of different and greater
punishment. His petition says that
"life Imprisonment is not only entirely
different from but is in fact greater
and more horrible to endure than the
death penalty, alone prescribed by gem
eral law for murder, first degree.

TO EXERCISE COOPER JURY
Trial Promises to Last Several Weeks.
Army of Witnesses.

Nashville, Tenn, March In the
Cooper-Sharp trial for the Staying of
former United States Senator e. w.
Carmacl1, the defense has some sixty
witnesses waiting to be heard, while
the state has ffty-two. 1t is very prob
able, however, that it will be two weeks
yet before the arguments will begin.
1t is just as probable that the argu'
ments will last week, for over
score of attorneys are engaged in the
case and each one expects to address
the jury.
Meantime, the jury, made up of
farmers, used to outdoor exercise, is
chatting under the restraint. This was
called to the attention of Judge Hart
and he ordered the sheriff to take the
twelve men out walking twice each
day, regardless of the weather.

Wet VOTE CAUSE OF
WOE FOR PROFESSOR
Resignation Of Educator Of Earl
ham College Demanded.

Richmond. Ind, March 1.-The resig-
nation of w. n. Trueblood, professor
of English at Earlham college, is de-
handed in resolutions passed by a
meeting OF the Friends church at Dub
lin, this county, because he voted
wet" in the recent local option cleo
ton, which resulted in the defeat of
the anti-saloon faction.
Wayne county is the only one in In
diana that has yet gone "wet" in an
option election. A quarterly meeting
of the Friends church will be held in
this city next Saturday. Twenty-Five
students, it is said, have declared that
they would withdraw if Professor
Trueblood's resignation were asked.
Earlham college is closely connected

WILL DISCUSS STEEL MERGER
President Today Will Be AbsoIved or
Officially Blamed.

washington, March In the clos
ing days OF congress nothing perhaps
will be of greater interest than the ac-
ton today of the senate committee ON
judiciary, which has agreed to vote on
reports of the subcommittee which in
vestigated the merger of the Tennessee
Coal and Iron company with the Unit
ed States Steel Corporation.
Two reports will be considered, the
majority declaring that the merger ap-
pears to have been illegal and that the
president was unauthorized to permit
such merger, and the minority finding
that the legality or illegality of the alb
sorption of the lesser company by the
greater corporation is question for
the courts to decide.
