ASK WOMAN'S CHARTER.
Lady McLaren Gets Husband to Stand
Sponsor for Bills.

Sir Charles McLaren has given notice
that he will introduce eight bills III the
House of Commons, all bearing OIL the
rights and interests of women. His
wife is the champio of this woman's
charter, which she introduced to large
meeting of women at Manchester on
Thursday.
Lady McLaren deals with woman's
wrongs i'll no half-hearted fashion. First
and foremost she demands that the COM
mons request the bishops of the Church
Of England in cOnyOcation to draw up
new marriage service in accordance with
womanly dignity and legal truth.
There is no doubt" she said, 'of the
inferior position of women in this coun-
Try, and the reason we are treated so
by the working and other classes is be-
cause the church, and especially the mar
Fiage service, encourages such treat
ment. The passage in the service,

WICKERSHAM IN DENIAL
SAYS HE NEVER WAS COUNSEL FOR
THE SUGAR TRUST.
Partner at One Time Retained in Single
Lawsuit-Answers Representa-
tive Martin.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March %
Attorney General Wickersham sent to
Representative Bennett of New York
Monday a fiat denial that he ever was at
torney for the sugar trust, as charged
by Representative Martin of Colorado,
who last week attacked the attorney gem
eral in the House for approving the sale
Of $1,000 acres of Philippine lands to the
Havemeyers.
Il never was attorney for the sugar
trust-by which l understand is meant
the American Sugar Refining company
and its aIhed or subsidiary corporations
nor have | had any professional or
business relations with it, The only
possible foundation for such a state
ment lies in the fact that one of my
partners was, some three years ago, re-
tanned as one OF the counsel for the
American Sugar Refining company in
a single suit brought against it, and,
pursuant to such retainer. he assisted in
the defense of the company in that
action and on an appeal; but in that
lawsuit [ was neither consulted nor did
| render service"
The partner referred to by Mr.. Wicker
sham is Henry w. Taft, the President
brother and in the case the attorney
general had in mind was the suit brought
three years ago by the Pennsylvania
Sugar company against the American
Sugar Refining company, in which con-
Spiracy was charged against the New
York concern. The American Sugar
Refining company made a settlement out
of court, paying over to the Pennsyl-
varia company the sum of 100000.
The transaction by which the sugar
trust was enabled to acquire approx
mately $4,000 acres of friar lands was
made possible, Representative Martin
charged, under the terms of an opinion
opinion, Mr.. Martin alleged, was con-
trary to the law governing the case.

Dulaney was arrested today on an in
dictment charging bribery in the recent
senatorial election. He was released on
$4,000 bail.

Dulaney of lssaquena county, to sup
port United States Senator Leroy
Percy in his recent candidacy before the

positive statement of the affair. He said
he kept the Rev. S. +. Culpepper, presi-
dent of the Clark Memorial college at
Newton, Miss, in his (Bilbo's) room at a
local hotel for four days in order that
the minister might be on hand when the
bride was given. The first payment was
made, however, in another room The
money was given in three installments,
he said. He asserted that he called a
caucus of Vardaman supporters and out
lined to them his plan to expose the 81
