SENATORS IN DEFENSE
OF ATTORNEY GENERAL
Lodge and Ga1linger Reply te
Criticism by Senator
La Toilette.

Defense of the acts Of the Attorney
General of the United States and Of the
governor and legislature of Massachu-
Senator La Toilette of Wisconsin yester-
day afternoon. Senator Lodge Of Massa-
chusetts and Senator Gallinger of New
Hampshire both declared the Wisconsin
solon wrong in his analysis and deduc-
tons.
Il do not want to be understood as
agreeing with the criticisms upon the At
torney General of the United States" de-
clared Senator Lodge. He is not only an
able lawyer. but he is a high minded and
honest man, and whether he acted wisely
or unwiSely In abandoning these suits-it
seems to me it was unnecessary for him
to press them after the action of the
supreme court of Massachusetts, and OF
the legislature-he acted from the highest
and best motives in either case, I am
certain
Senator Gallnger was just as emphatic.
1T is not necessary for me to defend
the Attorney General of the United
States" he remarked. He has estab-
iished reputation that will not be
seriously damaged by any controversy in
this chamber. l believe, and the majority
OF the American people will believe, that
when he abandoned the suit which was
In progress against the New York, New
haven and Hartford Railroad Company
ne did SO because he honestly believed
that the action of the Massachusetts, SUI
preme court and the legislature settled
the question. and that il would be utterly
useless for him to prosecute the suit,
.raVersing precisely the same ground that
the court and the Legislature OF Massa-
chusetts had traversed"
The merger of the New Haven and the
Boston and Maine systems was the chief
point OF attack by Senator La Toilette,
and both Senators Lodge and Gallinger
declared that the action of the Massa-
chusetts legislature in allowing the mer-
GER with proper safeguards, was wise
Senator Lodge declared in the first place
that the two railroads were not compet-
Ing lines, and he. maintained that the
necessity for the consolidation had been
found In the poor financial condition OF
the latter road. which was such as to
render 1t unable to make necessary i'm.
provements. The Massachusetts senator
also declared that the holding company
bill passed by the Bay state legislature
to allow the merger of the two SYSTEM
had been SO framed as to safeguard eff.
fectually the interests of the people o,
the state.

expectation of pecuniary profit was con-
cerned 1t was sheer patriotism. Mr..

Just before the committee adjourned

belief that larger number Of the officers

reason of their business connections.

Inspired by Patriotism.

The officers and members Of the
league, Mr.. Goulder insisted, in urg-
ing legislation for the encouragement
of the merchant marine were actuated
by purely patriotic motives and for the
country's veal.
Attorney Ralston tried to bring out that
most of the officers, II not all, expected
to be benefited by the proposed legisla-
ton; that number Of them whom he
cited were financially connected with
STEEL iron ore and water transportation
interests, but Mr.. Goulder replied he
knew of none such and that II there
were any they were so few as to be
negligible.
Mr. Goulder said he had no reason to
believe that representatives had been sub
sidized; the matter had never entered his
head. He said he had no reliable in
formation about ships having been built
at Cleveland for Pacific ocean service
and when asked if that could not be re-
peated, said he had heard shipbuilders
say that 1t was impossible

Early Action Probable.

It was admitted in authoritative circles
that some action on an advance in wages
was looked for soon. That 1t had not
come earlier. it was explained, was due
to the fact that throughout the panic and
business depression the steel corporation
had not reduced the wages of any of its
employees. thus maintaining the high cost
per ton production that ruled during the
more active trade seasons and which has
been all that the trade could stand for
the time. Brisk business and increasing
scarcity OF labor have aided in bringing
about better wage rate and at present
the shortage OF labor at Gary. Ind.

A Criminal Caught After World
Wide Chase.

One of the greatest achievements
OF the modern detective in running
down criminals was the capture on
boa.d a steamship in Canada last
Sunday Of DIR. Hawley Harvey Grip
pen, the American doctor-dentist
who is charged with the murder Of
his wife, Belle Elmore, the actress,
in London. Soon after the dissp-
pearance Of Crippen's wife he fled
and it was believed his stenographer,
a young woman named Ethel Clare
LeNeve, went away with him. The
pair disappeared as mysteriously and
completely as il the earth had open
ed and swallowed them. Since then
officers all over the civilized world
have been looking for him, his wife's
mutilated remains and evidence OF
murder having been found. The
Pacific liner, Montrose, bound from
Antwerp to Quebec had on its pas
senger list man and a young per-
son in male attire whom the ships
master, Capt. Kendall, believed to be
DR.. Crippen and young woman in
stead OF REV. John Robinson and
son" as they were registered. Capt.
Kendall put the wireless telegraph
in operation soon after the ships de-
parture when he became convinced
that his suspicious concerning the
pair were correct. Officials in Lon
don were got in touch with and an
officer, Inspector Dew Of Scotland
Yards, took passage on faster ship
and beat the Montrose into Canadian
waters. When the Montrose pro-
ceeded up the st. Lawrence to Que
bee she was met at Father Point by
Inspector Dew and the arrest of DR..
Crippen and Miss LeNeve, his fe-
male companion in male attire, was
made without difficulty.
1t was a great achievement for the
wireless and the detective force, this
spreading the net so neatly around
DR.. Crippen after a worldwide search
for him.
