Forester Plnehot in Public Address
Scores the Men Who Are Fighting
His Government Bureau-PeopIe
compIacent Victims of Plunder.

New York, Dec. 27.-Gifford Pinchot,
chief forester Of the United States, de-
clared in speech here today, before
q number of prominent publishers at
the University Club, that special in
terests have made repeated attacks on
the United States forest service and
those attacks have increased in vio-
lence just in proportion as the service
has offered effective opposition to pre-
datory wealth. Pinchot said in part:
"The people of this country have lost
vastly more than they can ever regain
by gifts Of public property, forever
ana without charge, to men who gave
nothing in return. 1t is true that we
nave made supurb material progress un-
der this system, but it is not we'll for
US to rejoice too freely in the slices
the special interests have given us from
the great loaf of the property of all the
people.
"The people OF the United States
have been the complacent victims of a
system of plunder often perpetrated by
iaSll WIN WOulu nave OeSl surprised
beyond measure to be accused of
wrongdoing, and many of whom in
their private lives were model citizens.
But they have suffered from curious
moral perversion by which it becomes
praiseworthy to do for a corporation
things which they would refuse with
the loftiest scorn to do for themselves
Fortunately for us all that delusion is
passing rapidly away.
cit is the honora BILE distinction OF
the forest service that it has been
more constantly, more violently, and
more bitterly attacked by the represen-
tatives of the special interests in re-
cent years than any other government
bureau. These attacks have increased
in violence and bitterness just in pro-
portion as the service has offered eff
| fective opposition to predatory wealth
The more successful we have been in
preventing land grabbing and the alb
lsorption of water power by the specia
interests, the more ingenious, the more
devious and the more dangerous these
attacks have become. A favorite one Is
| to assert that the forest service in its
zeal for the public welfare, has played
ducks and brakes with the acts Of
congress-"

Italian Conspirators OstensibIy to
Win Her UncIes Son For Husband, is
Charge of Assistant States Attorney.
Chicago, Dec 27.-An unusual story
was outlined in the criminal court here
today in the opening statement in the
trial of eight Italians, accused of con-
spring with a crippled 17-year- old girl,
Angelina Schiavone, to rob her father,
a widely known Italian banker.
In his argument Assistant States
Attorney Fleming told the jury that
Francisco Schiavone, an uncle of An
gelina, three years ago told the girl
to get all the money she could from her
fathers bank, bring it to him and he
would save it for her and when she had
snug sum she could marry his son,
Michael. The girl was employed in her
fathers bank and it is alleged that her
thefts aggregated $4,000 before she was
detected.
When money from the bank was
found in her possession last winter she
told her object in taking it and de-
clared that, being crippled, she feared
she would be unable to marry and SO
had to tried to win a husband with her
fathers money
Michael Schiavone is a lame man,
five years the senior of his cousin, An
gelina. The eight defendants to the
conspiracy charge are all relatives of
Pasquale Schiavone, the banker. An
gelina was also indicted and will have
trial separate from the eight rel
atives.

Joe Jefferson's Role.

Mr. Joseph Jefferson will be seer
in the role of hustling old multi-mil
lionaire, who is the recognized con
troller of the famous Wall Street
market. In the heavier dramatic
scenes,-when others attempt to
wrest this control from him,-he rises
to dramatic situations in a surprising
manner. And in the next moment, he
is all comedy,-so 1t can easily be
seen what a wonderful part is his
Needless to say that in his hands, the
character will be a most delightful
theatrical creation.
Mr.. William w. Jefferson will be
seen as BERTHE, the lamb" a comedy
part exclusively. Willie Jefferson
needs no introduction as a fun-maker,
for his ability as comedian is un-
questioned. In "The Henrietta" he
will be seen at his best. which is quite
enough said on the subject.
The supporting company is of I'M
usual ability and each of the many
characters will be in the hands of an
artist specially selected for his part.
Exceptional efficiency is the only
term which will correctly describe
the general ensemble of the entire at
traction.
