LIESKE'S MOTHER WATCHES
EVERY MOVE IN COURT
Seems More Interested n Trial Than
Son; Believes Latter viii Be
Acquitted.

Frank Lieske, now on trial for the
second time In Judge Connolly's
court in connection with the shooting
of Detective Frank Wilkinson. Sept
26, 1908, is naturally, the person most
concerned in the proceedings. Yet. sit
ting among the spectators is a woman
whose interest in the trial seems even
greater than that Of the respondent.
She Is Lieske's aged mother. The
old lady's kindly face Is stamped with
worried look and her almost tear
ful eyes are constantly on her much
loved son. The mother love in her
heart is apparently stirred as II never
was before. and II finds an outward
flow in the continual train of SYM
pathy and encouragement which runs
between mother and son. She watches
the witnesses closely and their every
word is eagerly listened to. n spite
Of the former conviction, the mother
declares she Is confident the present
jury will acquit her son.
Attorney Edward s. Grece. who Is
defending Lieske, stated Wednesday
morning that the defense would stick
to the alibi used In the former trial.
He made this statement in response
to a suggestion that he planned to
plead self-defense in behalf of Lieske.
"Lieske has never admitted to me
that he was on Fourteenth-ave. the
day wilkinson was shot," said Mr..
Grece. ION the contrary, he denies
most emphatically that he was in the
neighborhood OF the shooting on the
day Il occurred"

test Against Advance In Rail-
road Tariffs.

LANSING, Micn., July 6.-(Special)
Commissioner James Scully and
Rate Inspector Darwin OF the state
railroad commission have gone to In
dlanapolis to attend conference or
representatives of the railway COM
missions of Michigan, Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois to protest against the gen.
eral advance in freight rates to take
effect Au. 1.
Within the past few weeks numer-
Gus complaints have been received at
the Office of state railroad commission
from shippers In all parts OF Michigan
declaring that the advance In freight
rates will be unjust and will work q
general hardship.
It is expected that the representa-
tives to tie confeFenee at Indianapolis
will exert thefr influence with the
railroads to withhold the increase un-
til after the interstate commerce com
missions has passed upon the proposi'
ton as authorized at the last session
OF congress. Other complaints have
been received that the railroad com.
panies have fixed the minimum weight
of certain commodities to be placed
in cars so high that the shippers are
unable to lead the cars at the mini
mum weight, yet they are compelled
to pay the additional charge.
These complaints will be thoroughly
Investigated at hearing to be held
in the near future.

KAISER HAS F0RCEFUL
FOREIGN SECRETARY
Vigorous Change Of Policy ls Expected
Through the Appointment Of
klderlen-W

BERLIN, July 6.--German foreign
policy is likely to experience a vigor-
GUS change through the retirement OF
Baron Won Schon as foreign secretary
and the appointment In his stead of
Herr Won Kiderlen-Wachter.
The new minister ranks as one OF
the most shrewd and forceful men In
German politics. He was acting for
eign secretary during. the Balkan
crisis In the spring OF 1909, and is un-
derstood to have been personally re-
sponsible for the policy which resulted
Tn Russia's recognition OF the annexa-
tion OF Bosnia and Herzegovina by
Austria under direct coercion from
Germany. Won Kiderlen-W Wachter, who
Is popularity known as the Dumping"
owing to his fondness for that
famous South German specially, has
been stationed at Bucharest as the
German minister for the last ten years
but had many special assignments in
the meantime, including frequent rep
reservations Of Baron Won Marschall
Won Bieberstein as Ambassador at
Constantinople.
The new secretary ranks as an ex-
pert on affairs of the Near East, and
German interests In that region Of con-
fiict are certain to be actively looked
after under his regime.
Won Kiderlen-W -Wachter's pugnacious
individuality was manifested few
years ago, when he challenged the edi-
tor Of the Kladderadatsch, the comic
weekly, to a duel. The editor was
left bleeding on the field Of honor
from a bullet wound in the shoulder

through It's Boston headquarters tele-
graphed to the governors Of every

Secretary William Shaw declared
today that he had wired President
Taft, Col. Roosevelt and Gov. Hughes
