CREDIT TO AUTHORS
Prof. Scott Defended From
Plagiarism Charge.
J. w. FOSTERS COMMENT
Incapable of Purloining the Ideas
or the Words of Another" He
Declares.
W. FOSTERS COMMENT

John w. Foster former Secretary of
State and a writer Of international repu-
tation on questions of state, was asked
by reporter for The Star last evening
for an expression of opinion on the charge
of plagiarism against Prof James Brown
Scott, solicitor OF the Department of
State. made by DR.. Joseph p. Chamber
lain, professor of international law in the
University of California. The charge is
published in the Columbia Law Review,
in which DR.. Chamberlain, through paral
lei citations. attempted to show that Prof.
Scott had made use of some works on
international law without giving due
credit to the authors.
az am very glad" said Mr. Foster. "to
say something in regard to the charge
of plagiarism made against DR.. Scott by
Prof. Chamberlain. for / regard it as both
unjust and unfounded.
Il have examined the citations made by
Prof. Chamberlain and compared them
with the text in DIR. SCOTS work on The
Hague peace conferences. Dr. Scott makes
1t plain in the passages cited that he is abb
stractipg and condensing his statements
from other writers. whose works he men
tons both in the body OF his text and in
the appended footnotes. and he gives
special prominence to the authors whose
words he is particularly charged with

ship. 1t is pitiable that the spirit of
hypercriticism should so possess a mem
Der of any university faculty as to lead
him to distort and misrepresent the spirit
of the author in order to make his book
| review little more attractive.
II had the honor to sit in The Hague
| conference of 1907, and take pleasure In
stating that DR.. SCOTS work in that
body was conspicuous for It's skill and
usefulness: he stood as an equal among
the foremost scholars and jurists of the
world, and am proud Of him as a repre-
sentative of our country.
In preparing his book on that confer
ence he would be incapable of purloining
the ideas or the words OF another. and /
am sorry that any reputable American
should so accuse him and seek to smirch
his well earned reputation at home and
in foreign lands"

MOTIVE IS MYSTERY
Letter Which Caused Powell
to Shoot Not Divulged.
DEPUTY DUNN MAY DIE
Senator Travis and Representative
Kitchin Will Recover-1nsanity
Theory Not Supported.

SCOTLAND NECK N. c.. March g.
The Developments today in the shooting
of State Senator Travis, Representative
Kitchin and Deputy Sheriff Dunn by E..
E. Powell, ST., yesterday did not serve to
clear I'D the mystery regarding Powell >
motive.
: Nothing can be ascertained regarding
the contents Of the letter to Senator
Travis. which seems to have furnished
Powell with the animus.
Senator Travis was removed to his
home In Halifax this morning. Reports
from his bedside tonight are to the ef-
feet that he is suffering greatly. though
his physician does not consider his con-
dition serious
Letter Not Divulged.
So far as can be learned he has not
given out any Information as to the con-
tents Of the mysterious letter.
Mr.. Travis today coughed up the ball
which entered his mouth.
Representative Kitchin was also report
ed as suffering considerably. though his
condition Is not serious.
Representative Claude K1tchin arrived
here today to be at the bedside of his
brother. En- route he stopped at Halifax
the county seat. and called upon Mr.
Travis.
The condition OF Deputy Dunn is re-
say the bullet pierced a lung. and today
pleurisy set in, which renders his con-
dtion unfavorable.
Additional physicians from Tarboro ar
rived here tonight to aid in the care of
the wounded men.
Further details Of yesterdays shootings
show that Dunn was retreatfng when
Powell fired. When kitchin and Travis
had fallen in quick succession Dunn started
toward Powell. Realizing he was un-
armed. he turned to retreat, when Powell
fired. the bullet entering the left side
near the back and ranging upward.
When Powell asked Kitchin about the
letter Travis replied that 1t had escaped
his attention. Powell began cursing.
Kitchin stepped forward to demonstrate
Quickly drew his weapon and shot him
down without further ado.
Powell May Be Insane.
After barricadtng himself for four
hours In his store after the shooting
Powell surrendered. He refused to permit
the use Of handouts.
When he was being taken to the station
bound for the county Jail at Halifax he
expressed utter defiance OF the authori-
ties. Cursing several prominent men who
were in the crowd Of spectators, he de-
clared that they would be his game when
he got back.
PowelPs actions lead to the belief that
his mind is affected. There is nothing in
his career up 10 this time to substantiate
this
II develops that Travis teeth probably
saved his life. Eight teeth were knocked
out by the bullet, DETECTING Its course
from the main artery.
Dr. Kitchin. brother of the wounded
representative. stated tonight that nobody
knows anything of the mysterious letter
referred to by Powell and that Senator
Travis himself does not recall any letter
