MUNICIPAL COURT TANGLE.
No Appropriation for New Body and
LITIGATION Piles Up.

District Auditor Tweedale was at the
Capitol today urging that something be
done at once to straighten out the tangle
that has resulted from the passage Of the
bill Transforming the justices of the peace
into municipal court of the District of
Columbia in an incomplete form.
The bill provides for judges. but not for
their salaries: for two clerks. but does
not fix their compensation, and further
compels the court to meet under one roof,
but does not provide rent for the roof.
Mr. Tweedale explained today that the
municipal court bill having boone a law,
there are no longer any justices of the
peace. and as there is no appropriation for
the court, these particular channels OF
Justice are temporarily blocked.
Hundreds Of cases are piling up: house
owners cannot eject bad tenants. and
there were many other serious incon-
veniences resulting from the failure OF
Congress to complete its work on this
particular measure.
1t is expected that the proposition will
be corrected in the District of Columbia
appropriation bill. now in conference.

FILIPINO wins his CASE
SUPREME COURT DECIDES
AGAINST UNCLE SAM.
Important Decision Affecting Title
to Land Occupied as a Mill
tary Reservation.

In an opinion by Justice Holmes the
Supreme Court of the United States to-
day decided the case OF Mateo Carino
vs. the government Of the Philippine
Islands against the government. The
case grew out Of a controversy over the
title to a tract of land occupied as a
military reservation in the province of
Benguet, which was claimed by CarinO
through possession covering a period OF
thirty years. 1t was shown that he had
not registered his claim and that he had
received no title from the government
and the insular court, holding that the
statute of limitation does not run as
against the state in such a case, decided
that mere possession would not give title
as against the government, but that posi-
ton was reversed by today'S decision.
Justice Holmes Opinion.
In the course of his opinion Justice
Holmes said that the United States had
taken possession of the Philippines in a
different spirit from that in which they
had been held by Spain. I'VE must do
Justice to the natives and cannot exploit
their lands for private gain. Every pre-
sumption is and ought to be against the
government in case like this. If there
is doubt or ambiguity in the Spanish law
the claimant should have the benefit OF
it,
The opinion is considered an important
one as showing the tendency of the court
in dealing with the disposition of the
Philippine lands.

NO INOI6N|TY TO MRS. WILHELM
NOT SUBJECTED TO THIRD DE-
GREE BY POLICE.
Chief Corbitt Denies Story and De.
scribes Visit to Morgue to See
Murdered Husband.

NEWARK, n. j., February 23.-Chief
of Police Michael Corbitt denies the &C
curacy of the report published Febru-
airy stating that Mrs. Mary ]. Wilhelm
had been subjected by the police to what
is known as the third degree" An in
vestigation shows that the so-called
third degree was not made use Of
Chief Corbitt's statement of the occur
renee is as follows:
Mrs. Wilhelm. on the day preceding
the funeral of her husband, pleaded to
be permitted to view the body She agreed
to hire a coach to convey her to the
undertaker's if her request was granted.
The request was granted. 1t was ar
ranged with her that the journey be made
at O'Clock that night. so she would not
be subjected to the gaze of q morbidly
curious crowd or the fire of many
cameras. a condition she could not have
escaped were the trip made in the day
light
Furthermore. her relatives had been
informed of the intended trip They
brought her mourning garments TO wear.
She prepared for the journey early in the
night and was fully dressed and waiting
10 make the trip when the coach arrived
exactly at the hour that had been set
She had not retired and consequently
was not aroused from her sleep and
hustled out at midnight without being
told whittier she was going.
At the undertaker's the body of the
slain man rested in handsome casket
1t had been made as presentable in ap.
pearance as it was possible for an eX.
pert mortuarian to make it,
No sheet covered the body; conse-
quently sheet was not suddenly jerkeG
aside to reveal the corpse when the
woman entered. After Mrs Wilhelm had
gazed on the dead mans face for few
moments the glass slide covering it was
drawn down so that she might, if she de-
sired. press last kiss on the lips
Not question was put to her This
all took place in the large room used b,
the undertaken for the holding of funera
services, and not in the morgue
After Mrs. Wilhelm had COMPOSED her
sell she returned TO the coach, was driver
back TO police headquarters. and wa.
profuse in her thanks for having beer
permitted to make the journey

GRAY INDICTED FOR FORGERY
TWO CHARGES AGAINST FOR
MER BANK BooKKEEPER.
Four Counts in All, Including Al
legged Forgery and Utterance of
Checks-Other Indictments.

Oden &. Gray, former bookkeeper of the
Washington Loan and Trust Company,
was indicted by the grand jury today for
forgery. Two charges are preferred
against him. one alleging that he forged
a check on the trust company for $3.50
to which was signed the name of Emily j
Blanchard, and the other a check on the
same institution for $3.50. and bearing
the signature of Susan b. Sheriff.
The indictment is in four counts. The
first charges the alleged forgery of the
So, $50 check, the second the uttering of
the alleged forgery by the presentation OF
the check to the United States Trust Com
pany as a genuine order for the payment
of money. The third count deals with
the alleged forgery OF the Sheriff check
and the fourth charges the uttering and
cashing of that check at the National
Capital Bank.
The checks. it is understood. were hon
ored by the Washington Loan and Trust
Company when received from the banks
where they had been cashed, but when
the alleged forgery was discovered the
cancelled checks were found missing from
the files where such checks are kept al
the trust company.
Suspicion was directed toward Gray anC
he was arrested the 9th instant when ht
reported for duty at the trust company
following a furlough, which had beer
charges.
The evidence of the alleged crime is
missing, as neither of the checks which
are declared forgeries can be found. The
indictment, therefore, only describes the
two checks in Il general way. and de-
clares "a more particular description be.
ing to the grand jurors unknown and un-
obtainable. and therefore not here in this
indictment set forth by its tenor or more
fully described"
Gray was released on So 900 bail, which
he later surrendered and sought by ha-
beas corpus to expedite a hearing in the
Police Court set for today. His petition
was dismissed last Friday and an appea
noted. Pending the appeal he Is at lib.
erty on new five-thousand- dollar bond

hanna Hickman, for housebreakng and
larceny; Clarence L. Tucker, for forgery

attempt to rape: Hannibal Hailstock, for

Nearly All Farmers Called in
Standard Oil Case.
PROTEST BY THE DEFENSE
Prosecution Opposes Motion tt
Quash as Improperly Drawn.
SPRUNG IN COURT
Same Glass of Men as on Jury Which
Found Verdict on Which Big
Fine Was Based.

CHICAGO, February GA bitter skir-
mish signalized the opening of the re-
trial of the Standard Oil Company Of In
diana for alleged rebating today.
Judge Anderson had been on the bench
but few moments when John S. Miller
of the defense electrified those present by
filing motion to quash the venire Of 100
men on the ground that it had been i'm
properly drawn. Sixty per cent of the
venire are farmers; only three are resi-
dents Of Chicago and but sixteen live in
Cook county, which contains two-thirds
Of the population within the courts jul
risdiction.
Surprise was plainly visible on the face
Of District Attorney Edwin W. Sims when
Mr.. Miller called attention to the per-
sonnel of the venire. He promptly re-
covered. however. and sharply opposed
the motion.
Scene Of Second Trial.
There was a change of scene for the
second trial. Instead of being held in the
courtroom of Judge Lands the trial will
be held in the courtroom Of Judge Peter
9. Grosscup.
If the government attorneys were at all
inclined to be suspicious they might see
an untoward "sign'' from the fact that
Judge GroSScup was the juriSt who pre-
sided over the United States circuit court
of appeals and wrote the opinion which
reversed the monumental fine imposed by
Judge Lands against the oil company.
This Is the case in which Judge Lands
imposed fine Of $29.24O,OOO on the first
conviction. The fine was reversed by the
court OF appeals and the case remanded
for new trial.
The courtroom held a fair-sized crowd
IT was seen at once from the early ques-
tioning of the jurors that 1t would take
at least two days to fill the box. The
men called, mostly farmers OF Illinois, are
of the same type as those who found a
verdict of guilty in the first trial.
No Delay in Prosecution.
Attorney Sims announced that no delay
would be caused by the government in
presenting it's case Assistant District
Attorney James II. Wilkerson took charge
of the preliminary work. :
The bulk of witnesses and the documen-
tary evidence will be the same as was
presented in the other trial. Nearly all of
the witnesses had been subpoenaed and
100 veniremen had been summoned.
The defense was represented by Attor-
neys John s. Miller, Alfred D. Eddy and
Chauncey Martyr. 1t is expected that
Mr.. Wilkerson will make his opening
statement Of the governments case
Thursday.
Mr.. Sims refused to disclose the in
tended procedure of the government in the
technical points involved.

MAKE LIGHT OFTAx|CAB STRIKE
COMPANY SAYS IT IS NOT
HANDICAPPED.
Plenty Of Men Able to Do Required
Work, Is statement-High
Wages Paid, Say Men Out.

I'VE are running every cab which is In
condition to be placed on the street, and
have not the slightest trouble in en-
ploying all the competent chauffeurs we
want.
The strike is absolutely gone, and is
but a thing of the past, so far as we are
concerned"
This is the statement made at the Office
of General Manager jeremiah Tickling of
the Terminal Taxicab Company today in
reference to today's status Of the taxi
cab cauffeurs' strike. 1t was announced
that no difficulty has been experienced
for several days in handling the business
Of the company, and that none is antici-
pated.
How about new chauffeurs?' was
asked.
Plenty of them" was the reply.
There is a superabundance Of chauf-
feurs. We never dreamed there were
SO many in the city. They have been
only too glad to get the chance to work :"
The charge made by strikers that in
experienced men were being employed
to drive the cabs was denied. 1t was eX-
planned that probably as class the new
men are young in years, but fully capa-
BILE of performing the required duties.
With the exception of several speeding
arrests and one case of collision there
has been no reason to complain of the
new drivers.
I'VE anticipate the strike will only last
for a short while longer" said an official
of the Terminal Company, when it Will
die natural death.
Some of the old men were able and eX-
perienced in their work 1t is unfortunate.
especially for themselves. that they should
have seen fit to give up their jobs.
so far as I know, not one of them has
applied for unemployment. OF course we
shall treat with them only as individuals,
not as an organization
The striking chaufreurs assert the pay
offered the new men employed to take
their places Is not that offered them be-
fore the strike went into effect. 1t is al
legged by the strikers the men who fill
their places are receiving $3.50 a day, or
just one-half the sum they were willing
to accept as a basis of agreement
They charge this rate Is paid to break
the strike and force the former chauffeurs
to return to work. when they will be COM
PEELED to take what is offered them.
Yesterday was particularly free from
disorder growing out of the strike. Unlike
several days before. not a single arrest
was made, either for charges or disor-
derby assembly or speeding.

KAISER'S SON MAY COME OVER
Frederick William, Crown Prince,
Talks of Competing in Yacht Race

BERLIN, February 23.-Frederick Will
liam, crown prince of Germany. has been
talking for several months past of the
possibility of visiting the United States
when the Sonder-class yachts go over
for the races next summer. Up to the
present time no definite plan for this
visit has been decided upon.
He might go to sail his own boat should
his yacht be one of the three selected
to compete in the trial races to be held
during the kiel regatta in June. If his
boat does not qualify he could go as one
of the accompanying yachtsmen and sail
on another boat
Emperor William approves fully of this
projected visit because of it's educational
advantages. The crown prince often has
expressed regret that he has not yet been
able to see something Of that wonderful
country" the United States. and the
American people of whom Admiral
Prince Henry of Prussia and many other
Germans have told him much.
If the crown prince does go to America
it will be strictly as private person, al
though he doubtless would be received at
the White House and visit quietly some
of the important cities and interesting
places of the country.

Prince Ito Declares Helpless
ness of Korea Is Obvious.
PROTECTION is REQUIRED
Says That Peace of the Far East
Is Involved.
WELCOMES THE MISSIONARIES
Asserts That Their Good Work in
the Enlightenment of the Coun-
try Is Self-Evident.

SEOUL, Korea February ,. via San
Francisco. February 23.-That the strong
est impression he retains of his recent
tour of northern Korea Is that Japan
must continue fearIessy in her attitude
of protection and guidance toward the
Koreans was the declaration of Prince
Ito. Japanese resident general in Korea
on the day following the return OF the
imperial party to Seoul. Prince Ito said
he had observed conditions obtaining
throughout the empire very closely, and
speaking directly to the Koreans, who
formed the major part Of his audiences
he said that, despite their dislike of in
reference by the Japanese and Japanese
government. and no matter how irksolne
it appeared. it was the highest desire OF
the Japanese to help Korea, and in doing
the far east.
Korea's Helplessness.
The prince declared that the weakness
and helplessness Of Korea were obvious
to any impartial observer. While the
Koreans would refuse to admit 1t, very
naturally, he said, the fact remained
that there was no hope for the empire
without the protection Of Japan. This
Prince Ito announced, would be the SUD-
stance of his report to his emperor OF
his return to Japan.
Both the Korean emperor. who is In
splendid health and spirits since MS re-
turn from the north and Prince Ito have
granted audiences to the leading residents
of Ping-Yang and the foreign mission
aries. To the latter the prince said that
he made no difference In act or Thought
between the various creeds. He said that
the good work of the missions In the
enlightenment and civilization of Korea
was self-evident. and that in his own
efforts toward the political salvation OF
the country he desired the aid of the
missionaries and native Christians.
Sentiments Arouse Enthusiasm.
The expressions Of good will voiced by
the prince were received with enthusiasm.
and have created feeling of friendli-
ness toward the Japanese administration
of Korean affairs among the mission
aries Of Ping-Yang.
In addressing his fellow countrymen
resident in Seoul, Prince Ito said that
in Korea could not be achieved until the
economic weaknesses of the empire had
been overcome. He dwelt at length on
the need for the development of the nat
ural resources of Korea, stating that he
had worked and would work INCREASINGLY
to this end.
Prince Ito closed his remarks by urg-
ing both Japanese and Koreans to work
with these common objects In view, there
by serving the best interests OF every
resident of the empire.

GEAR MEETS GAR.
Russia's Ruler Calls Upon Bulgarian
Monarch-Lives Unguarded.

ST. PETERSBURG, February 23.-Em-
peror Nicholas came into st. Petersburg
this afternoon from Tsarskoe-Sel and
called upon King Ferdinand OF Bulgaria
at the winter palace. 1t is declared the
meeting between the monarchs was cor
dial.
The emperor drove again through ST.
Petersburg without an escort. Fair-sized
crowds assembled and saluted him re-
spectfully as he went by. There was no
cheering.
The absence of precaution for the safe
" of the emperor was in stri ling con-
trast to the measures taken to protect
shipment of currency from the State
Bank, which made its way through the
same streets a few minutes later. The
money was heavily guarded by detach-
ment of cavalrymen, who rode with their
carbnes and sabers ready for instant use.
