New York, Feb. 5.-Edward B. Vree-

tonight on the subject of a central
United States bank
Mr.. Shaw. speaking at the Repub-

saying that It would be impossible to
keep its control out OF the hands of

OF the two he preferred Morgan

SENATOR PILES URGES
FEATURE OF ECONOMY
Declares That Without Changes Wcst-
ern States VIII Suger
Greater Expense.

Washington, Feb. 5.-The question
whether the governor of one state
shall be required to extradite per
son under charge of crime. on The in
formation process as we'll as the IN
dictment process, was under discus
sion In the senate for more than two
hours today. No action was taken
on the bill under consideration, which
would compel recognition of the infor-
nation process.
Senator Piles, In charge OF the
measure. said 1t had originated in the
fact that some governors had refused
TO grant eXtradition In case OF prose
cution by the process OF Information. "
the bill was vigorously opposed by
Senators Root and Hepburn. who con-
tended that it was In contravention of
the federal constitution. We, who
arc acting under the requirement OF
the constitution for q grand jury pro-
ceeding," said Mr. Root, should not
be compelled by an act of congress TO
abandon it, and to surrender Il citi-
zen on a process which We believe to
be inadequate and Irregular"
Nor" said Mr. Piles, should cit
izen of New York be allowed to in
wade other states, violate their laws
and fee to his home and be free from
arrest. eXtrndition and trial. according
TO our laws"
Mr.. Piles said the information pro-
cess had been adopted by many west
ern states for economy. but he feared,
If there should not be change in the
federal law. il would be necessary for
them to make general use OF the
grand jury system, which would entail
much greater expense.
Senators Clark of Wyoming and
Bailey declared each state should
have the right to prescribe its own
methods of prosecuting criminals.
1T takes far clearer vision than 10
see In this bill any violation of the
constitution or of the rights OF
states" declared Mr. Clark.

Maternal Victory Won in Court
Following Bitter Fight
for Custody.

The custody of the two minor chill
dren Of Joseph Rice and Mary Rice
were awarded to the mother by Dis
trict Judge Howell yesterday after.
noon following one of the bitterest
and most sensational contests ever
heard in the District court Of this
county which has lasted for several
days.
Mrs. Rice is given the custody of
the two children for period of eight
months on probation after which II it
can be shown that she has not provid-
ed for them In q suitable manner. and
Is not a proper custodian, the court
will make other arrangements for
their future welfare.
In making the order by which the
children were given to the mother,
the court took occasion to say that
he realized that the conditions gov
erning the future of the children are
not Ideal. but that since none Of the
allegations and charges made against
Mrs. Rice by her divorced husband
showed that the mother had been
builty of unseemly conduct since her
second marriage, he was disposed to
allow her an opportunity to care for
the children.
The RIces wore divorced several
months ago BY the decree fled at
the time Mrs, Rice was given the Gus
tody of the children and awarded $40
a month allmony, for their support \
short time ago, Rice flled petition
with the District court asking a modi-
fcation of the decree, alleging that
the children we're being neglected and
that the alimony which he paid for
their support WAS being used for the
partial support of Mrs. Rice's second
husband. Mrs. Rice Med cross-pe-
tition In which she denied these
charges and asgked the court to mod
ify the decree and require Rice TO pay
to her $25 month as alimony in
stead of so.
The hearing was called in the Dis
trict court several days ago. and both
parties TO the controversy started a
undertaking campaign during which
charges of immortality and abuse were
exchanged with honors about even.
