SAY ROGERS DEMENTED
WHEN He GAVE MONEY
AIienists Support Suit of Mrs.
BarStoW to Recover Dead
Brothers Estate

Alienists testifying in the trial Of
Mrs. Annie r. Barstow's suit against
Frank e. Hayward to recover $4,000 left
by her brother, Charles w. Rogers,
who died December 13. 1907, yesterday
gave as their opinion that Rogers was
mentally unbalanced at the time of
his death. They reached their decision
after hearing all the evidence in the
case, which they used as their hypoth-
esis.
The experts were DR.. James w.
Fisher and DIR. Charles J.. Allen of the
University of Southern California.
They were put on the stand by the
plaintiffs counsel for the purpose of
showing that Rogers mind was un-
sound and that consequently he was
unable to make legal disposal Of his
property which he had promised to
his sister for the care she had taken
of him during his Illness from cancer.
The story OF the actions of Rogers,
beginning with his sickness and lasting
until his death, was told to the ex-
perts in detail. 1t set forth that Rog-
ers' illness had changed him from a
kind, courteous brother to a man who
cursed his sister one minute and then
asked her to help him the next; also,
that he had secured opiates containing
morphine to ease his pain and gradu-
ally changed and wasted away. becom-
ing more embittered and irresponsible
each day, until the turning over of his
property to Hayward on the alleged
contract.
Both physicians decided from the ev-

MANILA WILL HANDLE
JAPANESE SPY CASE
U. S. War Dept. Cannot Prose-
cute Under Code, but Hopes
for Punishment
Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The war
department has turned over to the local
Philippine government the prosecution
of the two Japanese alleged to have
been engaged in securing plans of the
Notifications of Corregidor, Manila har-
Dor, by the bribery Of Joseph G. Sake,
an American soldier.
This has been done by Secretary
Dickinson after consultation with
Judge Advocate General Davis, who
has made an exhaustive examination
of the Philippine law Cfor it is certain
that the United States code does not
apply in the case), in the hope that the
local attorneys in Manila may be able
to find some section that will serve to
bring about punishment of the Of
tenders.
1t is evident, however. that the
charge of bribery which was at first
the main reliance of the war depart
ment, will not hold in this case, as the
supreme court of the United States
held in the case of Major Corrington
that the bribe must be offered to an
official. OF course Private SAKE can
and probably will be tried by military
urt-martial, but 1t does not seem
probable that there will be any way
of furnishing the Japanese even If they
were found guilty, beyond the expul-
sion from the military reservation and
perhaps from the islands
The war department has for years
tried to get congress to enact law to
punish the making of photographs and
plans of Notifications but without
avail and il Is hoped the present in
stance will emphasize the need of such
legislation.

Entitled to Business Tele-
phone Rates
rsneoial to The Herald.1

NASHVILLE, Tenn, April Judge
Edward II. Sanford of the circuit court
of the United States handed down an
opinion today granting the Postal Tel
egraph and Gable company an lnJunc-
ton against the Cumberland Telephone
and Telegraph company Ca Bell COM
pany) discriminating against the Pos
tai in the use of telephones. A similar
injunction was granted in behalf of the
Postal against the East Tennessee Tel
ephone company, subsidiary OF the
Cumberland.
The telephone companies refused TO
furnish telephones to the Postal Tel
egraph company for the same rental
charged other subscribers and insisted
on the Postal Laying the telephone
companies 10 per cent of the tolls ia
ken on messages received over the
telephone and cents on messages de-,
livered by the telegraph company over
the telephone. The Postal refused to
pay and the Cumberland Telephone
company commenced taking out the
telephones from the telegraph Offices.
The Postal company then applied to
the United States court for an injunc-

had become mentally unbalanced be-
fore his death, mainly from the effects
of morphine mixed with other opiates.
They declared that the continued use
of opates would make an honest man

DEATH Of OLD SOLDIER
IN JAIL INVESTIGATED
Report DepIores Present System
of Caring for Helpless
Veterans

That the government should provide
some place and also some officer to
take care of old soldiers when they are
not on the grounds at the Soldiers
home at Sawtelle, who for any reason
whatever are incapable of taking care
of themselves, was the opinion freely
expressed by citizens of that COM
munity yesterday. Under the present
system, when an inmate of the home is
away and becomes helpless he has to
be looked after by the city officials of
Sawtelle and the general opinion seems
to be that the officers should not be
compelled or even allowed to do this.
The practice of having the city's men
take care of soldiers was brought to
the notice of the citizens of Sawtelle
by the death of John Murray in the
Sawtelle city Jail March %. This man,
found I'm a helpless condition, had to
be cared for by the city, and no better
place being available he was sent to
Jail.
While an investigating committee has
exonerated the officers who placed him
there from any blame for his subse
quent death, the statement was made
by several comrades that Murray was
in fairly good health, and 1t is thought
that had it been possible to give the
man the medical attention he needed
his life could have been saved.
A committee of citizens of Sawtelle
yesterday investigated the cause of the
death of Murray, making the inquiry
in the matter entirely of their own ac-
cord and returned the following report;
I'VE, your committee appointed to
inquire into the manner of the death
of Veteran John Murray, which oc-
Cured in the city Jail the night of
March II, find upon investigation that
death resulted from double pneumonia
and that the city officials of Sawtelle
were in no wise responsible. Witnesses
were examined who testified that the
man was supplied with water and
every comfort. Comrades who were in
Jail at the same time testified that
Murray made no outcry at any time
during the night and that there was an
abundance of water. This case was
inquired into by the coroner, who found
that Murray would have died under any
circumstances. The autopsy showed
that death was from congestion of the
lungs. In view of these facts, in our
opinion, the city officials of Sawtelle
are blameless."
The committeeman were w. III. Will
liams, 1. II. Homer and John Farley.

CANADA SEEKS MEN
WILLING TO WORK
Crowding of Towns and Cities in
Dominion Discouraged by
Authorities
SENATOR MAKES A REPORT
Dillingham; Finds Thousands of
Americans Have Left U. S.
to Get Homes
ASSOCIATED Pressl

WASHINGTON April l. Canada
wants immigrants whose intentions are
to enter agricultural pursuits, either as
land owners, tenants or as laborers, and
desires to exclude those immigrants
whose presence would tend to the con-
gestion of towns and cities
This probably is the most important
statement made In report submitted
to congress today by Senator Dilling-
ham, chairman Of the Joint migration
commission in regard to the immigra-
ton situation in Canada.
Another striking feature of the re-
port is the comparison of immigration
into Canada during the last decade
with that into the United States.
This shows that while 70 per cent Of
Canada's immigrants during that
period came from northern and western
Europe. the reverse being true OF i'm
migrants entering the United states.
The report says:
mo effort is being made to secure
immigrants from southern Europe, and
unless il Is the purpose of such immi-
grants to enter agricultural pursuits
their admission to Canada is doubtful
On the other haind. 1t is pointed out,
effort is made through salaried agents
ment aided by sub-agents to whom a
bonus or commission is paid, and by
means of advertising to secure immi-
grants from the United Kingdom,
France Belgium. Holland. Germany,
Denmark, Iceland, Finland, Norway,
Sweden, Switzerland and the United
States.
MAJORITY ARE FARMERS
OF the total number of immigrants
going from the United States to
Canada during the last three years
more than seven-eighths were classed
as farmers or farm laborers. Probably
no other considerable present move
ment of population from one country
to another, says the report, is so largely
composed of agricultural people.
From 1900 to 1909 in western Canada
235. $50 homesteads were entered for
more than 66 per cent of the entries be-
ing by immigrants, divided as follows:
English, 20.32 per cent; Scotch, go;
Irish, 1.S9: continental Europeans, 27.67,
and Americans, 44.91 per cent.
Canada gives great liberty to her ad-
ministratiYe authorities in the matter
of reflections or admissions and allows
her officials substantial freedom in
the matter of deportation. All persons
who become public charges within two
years after landing may be deported.
No one is barred from Canada because
of previous arrangements made for Sc
curing employment. The dominion
maintains free information, or employ
ment bureaus in the principal centers
for the benefit both of employers or
labor and of immigrants seeking en-
ployment.
In dealing with oriental immigration
Canada. has adopted a policy that prac-
tically excludes Asiatic labor.
