DEN0UNCES DELMAS AND
''UNWRITTEN LAW" ETHICS
DR.. Cyrus Brady ScathingIy Rebukes
Noted Lawyer as Counsel for
Degenerates

KANSAS CITY, Feb. 29.-Rev. DR..
Cyrus Townsend Brady, formerly of
Toledo, Ohio. at a banquet to the Sons
of the Revolution here last night, de-
livered a scathing denunciation of the
'unwritten law and openly named
Dolphin NJ Delmas, Harry K. Thaw's S
famous counsel, as the 100000 counsel
for degenerate aristocracy who utters
insults to God and humanity"
Mr.. Delmas last night delivered the
Washington birthday Grafton to the
Kansas City Bar association. DR..
Brady said
There is no unwritten law in this
country. 1t was only because of the
unwritten law of taxation without rep
resentation that the great War of the
Revolution was fought.
This 100000 counsel for degenerate
aristocracy comes here to our city and
utters these insults to God and hui
manity in our midst.
"Will Kansas City stand for it? The
jury down in New York turned it down
as it should be turned down. He (Del-
mas) says he is the exponent of and
the originator of the phrase 'dementia
Americana, I hesitate to associate the
word Americana with his name. Rath-
er it should be 'Delmasia Dementia.' :"

RENO. New. Feb. 23.-The Reno
branch of the Nye & Ormsby chain of
banks in Nevada closed it's doors this
morning. The news caused but little
excitement as the announcement had
been expected for some time.

but failed to prosper, though its presi
dent, Frank Golding, it is said, has
sacrificed every bit of property he
owned, with the exception of his hand
some home, to pull it through.
Cashier Byington gives assurance
the bank will pay dollar for dollar
Other branches of the bank are stu
ated in Wonder, Manhattan and Ton0-
pah. The Carson and GOldfeld
branches were nationalized some time
ago.

have no material effect on other Reno
banks, which at the present time hold

FORTRESS MONROE
Ships Begin coaIine Despite Tempest.
Several Thousand Men Get Shore
LeaVe-Vermont Quar-
antined

FORTRESS MONROE, Va, Feb. %.
The bad weather that greeted the
battleship fleet at the Virginia capes
yesterday, the worst the ships have ex-
perienced in any port on their way
around the world, continued today.
Storm signals were hoisted on the
beach, and during the afternoon a stiff
southeaster set in.
The big ships paid little attention to
the blow, but the launches were buff
feted about freely.
That part of the roadstead west of
Old Point pier seemed fairly choked
with fighting craft today. The two long
lines of the combined squadrons Of Ad-
miral Sperry and Admiral Arnold
stretched away from the dock almost
as far as the eye could reach, the gray
ships of the stay-at-home fleet fading
away in the mist-overspreading harbor.
Nearly one-half the ships began coal
ing, despite the weather. All came in
with bunkers nearly empty, after the
long and stormy run from Gibraltar.
1t is hoped the last of the ships will
have been coaled by Saturday in order
that the men may parade in Norfolk on
that day.
Visit the Connecticut
committee from Norfolk visited the
HagShip Connecticut today to extend an
invitation to the men of the fleet to be
the city's guests Saturday, but Admiral
Sperry had gone to Richmond.
There is little doubt the invitation of
Norfolk will be accepted, and that sew
eral thousand men will be sent to
parade. This will be the first shore
leave the men will have had. They are
kept aboard ship in anticipation Of an
inspection by Admiral Sperry.
The battleship Vermont Of the first
division is in quarantine. case OF
smallpox has developed on board.
One of the most interesting sights to-
day was the departure of a large mum
ber of enlisted men whose terms of SER
vice had expired. AS they left they
were given lusty cheers by the sailors
Negro boys and porters lettering
about the docks reaped a harvest from
tie homecoming sailors, who, disdain-
ing to carry their own satchels and
bundles, handed them over to the boys
to be taken to the railroad station, or
trolley cars.

Panama, connecting with the Panama
railroad and the federal steamship line
up the Atlantic coast led to the reduc-
ton.
The former eastbound rates ranged
from 40 to rs cents per 100 pounds, with
55 cents as a base.

QUICKLY DISMISSED
Will Not Retry Indiana Oil Case
with Same Class of Men Who
Caused $29, 100000
IBy Associated Press.l


CHICAGO, Feb. 2S.-The retrial of
the Standard Oil company of Indiana
was unexpectedly delayed today when
Judge Anderson, in the federal court,
quashed the panel of $50 veniremen be-
cause of the large proportion of farm
erS among those summoned.
'It was a farmers jury" which
brought in the verdict making Judge
Lands fine of $29, ,240,0 900 in the original
case possible.
Attorney John S. Miller of the de-
fense promptly reminded the court
that the panel contained but three
Chicagoans.
"It looks like design, or strange CO.
incidence" commented Judge Ander-
son.
II don't want to start in this hear
ing feeling that there is something not
quite fair. I think this panel ought
to be set aside.
'I will instruct the jury commission
to put in $50 names of men, good
proportion Of whom shall be good busi-
ness men from Chicago and Cook
county.
'"This case is tried in a district COM
posed of an enormous commercial city
and several rural counties.
"The country may have purer air,
higher moral standards and greater in
telligence than the city, but that is an
open question.
However, am not going outside the
issue when 1 say that if the jury were
composed partly of business men, who
would realize the great industrial and
commercial phase of the case, a more
satisfactory and just verdict may be
reached"
Judge Anderson said he would hear
argument of counsel tomorrow as to
whether shipments or settlements of
freight charges constituted the Of
fense.
There were, it is charged, thirty-six
settlements of freight charges in GER
tain shipments made by the Standard.
Accepting this view, a maximum fine
of $720, 900 is possible.

RICHMOND, Va, Feb. 23.-The

at a luncheon by Mayor Richardson in
welcoming Rear Admiral Sperry, Rear
Admiral Wainwright and fiftyfOur
other officers.
The luncheon, at which men of all
walks of civil life, all ages and of un-
yielding loyalty to the cause of Lee
and Jefferson Davis, fraternized with
the fighting men of the navy, was given
by the Richmond chamber of COM

Admiral Sperry received an ovation.

Il don't know where the secretary of

The admiral pointed out that the
voyage around the world was no

while we have been encircling the

score of last years target practice.
The fleets efficiency has increased %
per cent by economy of coal consump-

the men below decks.
when a contest comes a, navy must
know how to get there and how to stay
there when it gets there.
Now that the world is governed by
the people and for the people, it is not
sufficient that a solitary arbitrary ruler
should know on paper the possibilities
of a contest and the questions at issue
under the constitutional forms when il:
all the world today, even in Russia,
public sentiment may force a ruler into
a war or keep him out of it.
And since the people generally are
only impressed by what they see it is
necessary if you require the peace of
the world, that you show your fleet"
Congressman Lamb of Virginia de-
clared that if Virginia 'had had q
dozen Merrimacs instead of one fifty

stead of four years of blood and

Rear Admiral Wainwright in his ad-
dress bowed to the gallery and re-
marked: 1--WE can all shoot straighter
