Opposition to
Cocks Auto Bill
Drivers Would Be Immune from
Arrest Except by Federal Officer
After Leaving Home State.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 1S.-Representa-
tives Of automobile owners of the coun-
try appeared before the house interstate
committee today to advocate
some sort of federal law that would place
them upon a uniform basis and relieve
them from the "~freakish' operations of
conflicting laws of the various states.
The federal license bill introduced by
Representative Cocks of New York was
being considered.
L. r. Speare of Boston, president of the
American Automobile association, op-
posed the provision which would regu-
late the licenses of automobiles according
to horsepower. He explained that a ma
chine of small power, but running rap
idly, might do more damage than a ma
chine of greater power running at a
slower rate.
1t was stated that the Cocks bill would
produce $1,OOO,0Oo annually in revenue
for the federal government through the
license fee of IS for each machine. There
are now $4,000 machines in this country,
and with the output of 1910 added the
total would be about coo, 900 cars. With
but one-third of this number taking out
federal licenses the government would
derive the large revenue above stated.
Edward S. Cornell, secretary Of the Ma
tiona Highway society, arrived today TO
investigate proposed national legislation
for regulation of automobile traffic. Mr..
Cornell said tonight that he found senti-
ment in Washington to be against federal
automobile legislation at this time. The
bills now before congress-, he said, es-
pecially the Cocks bill, have provisions
that would destroy the rights of the
states to cause the arrest of an operator
of a car before an accident occurred. A
motor car operator travelling from one
state to another would under this law,
Cornell argued. be practically immune
from arrest except by an officer of the
United States court. Upon this ground
Representative Mann opposed the Cocks
bill today.

On the island the castaways found cabins.
and, with abundant food, clothing, blankets,

EIGHTY MEN IN BALL CAGE
Good Turnout in Response to Coach
CAROLS Call.
GYM TRACK Is FIRST COURSE
Manager Eager, while at Minnesota,
VIII Try 20 Arrange Schedule
for Game Next
Fall.

LINCOLN, Feb. 1~S.-(special. )-Nearly
eighty men reported to Coach Carroll at
the gymnasium this afternoon for the first
base ball practice OF the season. Gage"
work was started at a few minute after
noon and continued until nearly 3 o'clock.
Previous TO the limbering up exercises
Coach Carroll instructed the men in re-
gard to their work for the spring.
M Cornhusker coach has ordered all
men who have not taken part In basket
ball or indoor track work to spend about
half an hour each day for three weeks in
running around the track in the gymnasium
In order that they may strengthen their
wlnd
For the practice today Coach Carroll
had the players Timber up their points by
throwing the ball around the cage" This
kind Of work will be continued for two
weeks, and then the entire squad, which
probably will have grown to number $50
men, will be allowed to a part In indoor
games. Grounders will be batted around
and the candidates given Instructions as
to how to handle the various kinds Of
batted balls. Considerable attention will
be devoted to teaching the men how to
bat.
A smoker was given for the candidates
at the Sigma Alpha house last night, and
fully seventy-five men were present. Profs.
Caldwell and Barber were on hand as rep
resentatives Of the faculty and told the men
that they would have the unanimous sup
port of all the professors in their attempt
to turn out a winning nine this season.
Manager Eager announced before he left
Lincoln with the basket ball team yester-
day for the annual jaunt to Minneapolis,
that he would probably conclude range
ments with the Gopher athletic authorities
for a foot ball game next fall. There has
been some doubt In certain Cornhusker
quarters as to whether the Nebraska eleven
would be given a place on the Minnesota
schedule next fall. Some of the Minneapo-
lis professors have opposed the game. fear
Ing that it would be too hard a proposition
for Williams bunch to tackle. Last fall
Nebraska proved a surprise to the north
ern team and almost held them to a tie.
Unlike some Of the local professors, how
ever, Manage Eager does not think Min
nesota will turn the Cornhuskers down
this year, and he expects to sign a con-
tract with Minnesota for a game on North
rup field next fall.

An explosion OF the big cotton copper
converter at the American Smelling and
Refining company plant last night at Z
o'clock resulted in the death Of two men
and tho probably fatal injury OF one.
The dead:
J. KALIKE, skinner, Twenty-eighth
II. ANTON, pourer, EOS North Twenty
fourth street. South Omaha.
The injured:
OSCAR MEYERS, night foreman Of cop
per shop. 1929 North Seventeenth street,
Omaha; terribly burned on face and limbs,
has a chance for recovery.
AS soon as the accident happened. ambu-
lances were summoned and the injured men
were hurried to the Clarkson hospital,
Twenty-first and Harvey streets. Kaliks
and Anton died at 2 o'clock this morning.
Al the hospital 1t was ascertained the
two laborers were so badly burned there
was no hope for them. Meyers is in a
serious condition, hut there is some chance
for him, as II is believed he Is not burned
in a vital part Of the body. Meyers wife
sent for as soon as possible. She was
at a wedding at a neighbours house when
the news was received.
Meyers has been in the employ Of tho
American Refining and Smelling company
for four years and is enc of the most re-
liable men In the employ OF the corpora
ton. He has been married for two years.
Looking for the Cause.
General superintendent Page is conduct
ing an investigation into the cause of the
accident. Until he has seen the men who
worked on the night shift he says he will
be unable to account for the explosion or
the blowing out at the bottom"
Mr.. Page says he looked at the converter
after the accident and was at that time
unable to detect any defect. The con-
verter is a comparatively new one and has
a capacity Of forty tons.
When the molten mass escaped 1t caught
the men and literally roasted
them alive. Their clothing was burned off
and flesh and charred pieces of clothing
were found burned together, resembling
cinders.
Meyers father lives at Lexington, ILL.,, and
he has a sister at Jefferson, Ia, and a
brother at Boone. Ia.
Kalike and Anton were married and
leave wives and families.
The report from the hospital Friday with
regard to Meyers condition is that he 10

smelter occurred, and she was called away
from the happy scene to the side Of her
husband, who then appeared to be fatally

instant her gladness turned to sorrow and
cast a gloom over the festive party.
