FINAL HEARING TUESDAY.
Committee On Industrial Insurance To
Meet in Milwaukee Next Week.

The special legislative committee on
industrial insurance will probably meet
in Milwaukee next Tuesday to begin
what it is hoped will be the final
hearings on the industrial insurance
bill
1t is expected these hearings will be
largely attended as both the repre-
sentatiyes Of the manufacturing inter
ests and labor desire to thoroughly
discuss the bill. The labor represen-
tatiVes object seriously to the clause
which renders the law imperative in
case the person injured IS intoxicated
1t is claimed by the labor men that
this clause opens loophole for law
suits and that manufacturers will seek
to escape the indemnities provided for
under the law under the defense that
the employe injured had been drinking.
1t is claimed this will be particularly
true in cases where the manufacturers
are protected by liability insurance
and that the defense will be raised in
great many cases by the insurance
companies for the purpose Of creating
litigation and thus lessening the liza
blllty OF the insurance company under
the law.
The manufacturers are very anxious
that contributory negligence in some
form shall be retained as a defense
and object to the fact the third tenta-
tive bill wipes out the contributory
negligence defense as completely as do
previous bills ON the subject As near
as can be learned there is no obiec-
ton raised to assumption of risk be-
ing taken away as a defense.

This is probably not the complete en-
rollment, since for one cause and an
other pupils are frequently delayed in
entering.
Since the Frank and Deming schools
can take care of pupils only through
the fourth grade the pupils who con
tinue in school, and all in that grade
should continue in school somewhere
need go to another district for their
higher grade work. This results in such
a crowded condition in the 9TH grade
in the Balm and Columbus schools that
1t will be necessary for the school board
at once to find and equip two new
rooms for these pupils.
An examination of the enrolment by
grades presents to the thong htful some
interesting and significant facts.

FOR NAVAL DISPLAY
Congressman Foss Plans to
Arrange for Great Open
ingof New Naval School
WILL MOBILIZE LAKE VESSELS

It is more than likely that when
the new United States naval training
station at North Chicago is formally
opened to the world next spring Lake
Michigan will see its greatest and
most historic display of naval strength
on the Great Lakes.
The report comes from a quarter not
to be doubted that the plan of Congress
man Foss is to mobilize the entire naval
militia fleet of government war vessels
at the naval station, and if this be true
any previous showings of strength at
Thunder Bay or at any other point on
the Great Lakes will be far surpassed.
The following is the complete list
of vessels loaned the naval militia of
the Great Lakes and elsewhere:
Amphitrite, en- route St. Louis, Mo.
Aileen, Providence, r. I.
Alvarado, New Orleans, La
Don Juan de Austria, Detroit, Mich.
Dorothea, Cleveland, Ohio.
Isle de Cuba, Baltimore, Md.
Dupont, Wilmington, n. G.
Elfrida, Newbern, N. G.
Essex, Toledo, Ohio.
Granite State, New York city.
Hawk, Buffalo, N. Y.
Huntress at St. Louis.
Gloucester, Brooklyn, N. Y.
Gopher, Duluth, MINI.
Isle de Luzon, New Orleans, La.
Machias, New Haven, Conn.
Nashville, Chicago, Ill.
Oneida, Washington, D. G.
Ozark, Washington, D. C.
Portsmouth, Hoboken, N. j.
Rodgers, Boston, Mass.
Sandoval, Rochester, N. Y.
Sylvia, Philadelphia, Pa.
Tonopah, Hoboken, N. J.
Vixen, Camden, N. j.
Wasp, New York City.
Yantic, Hancock, Mich.
If the naval militia fleet on the
Great Lakes alone is modified there
without the other naval militia vessels
previous records will have been sur
passed and when it is recalled that in
addition Congressman Foss will invite
President Taft, cabinet officers and for
eign ambassadors to the opening, the
event is likely to beat all records of
the state.
Foss on recent visit to this city
refused to give any detailed informa-
ton about his plans for the opening of
the school. When asked about the
militia fleet he smiled significantly, but
would make no announcement.
"The opening will be the biggest
event ever held in Illinois, he said.
Nothing like it has ever been held
before and the opening of school diff
ferent from anything else in the world
will be celebrated''

NEITHER THE HANGMAN
 NOR THE ASYLUM
Will Get Seattle Murderer, Son of
 Millionaire.

Seattle, Wash, July 9.-Wallace A. Russell, son of C. B. Russell, the mil lionaire tide land owner, will neither be sent to the state insane asylum under the finding of the lunacy com mission. which adjudged him of un- sound mind yesterday, nor will he be tried for the murder of Joseph Bon ner. a bartender. whom he shot down while making an individual raid on a gambling resort in the King street district May 12th.
 Instead, the youth will be released to the guardianship of his father under $1O.0OO bonds and will be placed in a private saitarium at Livermore, California.
 In a conference between BusscITs attorneys and the county prosecutor today, it was decided to recommend this plan to the court, and Judge A. w. Frater has decided to accept the recommendation. According to attor- neys, the release of Russell on bond will be the first case in the history of the state in which a person charged with murder in the first degree has been released from the county or other jail on bail

NEGLIGENT
 OFFICIALS
 
 Their Removal May Be Their
 Punishment FOR NEWARK, ]. OUTRAGE. Mayor Who Permitted the Lynching At Etherington May Escape in Absence of Law Giving Governor Authority Over Him
FOR NEWARK, O. OUTRAGE

Columbus. Ohio, July 9-Although Governor Harmon has sent word that he will arrive in Columbus at noon to- morrow from Charlevoix. Mich, he has not given his secretary, George c. Long, any intimation of what action he will take with reference to last nights lynching bee at Newark.
 Among prophecies made here today was one that he would seek to remove both Sheriff Linke and Mayor Ather- ton. There is considerable doubt as to what authority he has in the latter instance. The legislature passed a bill providing for the removal of sheriffs who do not prevent lynchings, but it defeated one providing for the remov- al of mayors who fail to enforce the law.
 Dispatches from Newark say that Prosecutor Smyth called upon Com mon Pleas Judge Seward today for the immediate impaneling of d special grand jury to investigate the lynch ing of Carl NJ. Etherington, the special officer of the anti-salOon league work CTS. Judge Seward said he would give his answer Monday.
 Prosecutor Smith today said at New ark that he svould use every means at his disposition to. bring those guilty of mob violence to justice. The com missioners of Licking county have of fered a reward Of S1 ,000~for the detec- ton and conviction of persons connect ed with the lynching

Jeffries has said little except that he would retire to his alfalfa farm and shut himself against the world for a time. He eX- pressed a belief that with the nervous strain of the battle of the century, eliminated. he could make much bet ter showing in a return match. In reality, Jeffries has little intention of returning to the Ting. Some of his friends. however. are clamoring for another fight. and Manager Sam Der ger intimated today that he might have an important statement on the subject soon.
