EMPLOYERS LIABILITY.
Chief Importance of Legislation to Pro-
tect the Worker.

Edgar A. Bancroft, president of the
Illinois State Bar association, in
speaking on the subject of employers
liability at a recent meeting Of that
body declared that the chief impor-
lance of such legislation did not lie in
the legal questions involved nor in a
sure recompense for injured work
men.
ut lies" he said, lin the fact that if
a plan is found for insuring every
workman against loss through acct
dents in his employment it will not
only end the personal injury disputes
between employer and employee and
relieve the courts of Il very large bur
den. but it will also preserve the indie
pendence of the men and their fami-
lies and at the same time remove en-
tirely the wasteful antisocial influence
of such strife and unite. as they
should be united, the employer and
the employees in common interest
and purpose"

TALKS TO FARMERS
UPON CONSERVATION

ST. LOUIS, May addressing a
joint meeting of the farmers union and
the people of St. Louis today President
Taft devoted himself to technical dis
cussion of the subject Of the conserva.
tlon. lie declared the term covered a
wide range of subjects.
But as concerns congress at this
time, he added. conservation resolves
itself into the necessity of passing at
once the bill which will give 10 the
executive unauestioned authority to
withdraw lands for power sites and
other purposes. With this power in the
hands of the president of the United
States we can sit comfortably by and
discuss and devise the best means of
disposing OF the great public domain TO
be of benefit to present and future gen.
erations.'
Governor Hadley introduced the presi
dent at the farmers convention and de-
clared the greater movement of conser-
walton had no more "earnest, sincere
and effective friend than President
Taft The president called out laugh
ter and applause from the agrculturists

HE|NZE SEEMS To
HAVE UPPER HAND
Court Again Rebukes Govern
ment Attorneys for Methods
Used in Prosecution.

NEW YORK. May fudge Hough to-
day again criticised the governments
method of presenting It's case against f.
Augustus HeInze. who is charged with
msapplication OF funds of the Mercantile
National bank and with Decentralization
of the checks of Otto Heinze & Co, his
brothers firm.
A protest was made by Heinze's a;tor-
neys when District Attorney Wise at
tempted TO question a witness concerning
the value of United Copper stock in which
the HeinZe firm was interested. Judge
HOugh then interrupted the proceedings
10 say that the court doubted II the In
dictment. charging. mtsapplication. war
ranted such questioning lie sustained
many objections OF HetnZe's counsel
Probing Big Loan.
Despite rebuffs. however Mr.. Wise con-
tinucd to hammer away. He succeeded
In drawing admission from Max II.
Schultze "A member OF the Heinze firm.
that there was n syndicate in United
Copper stock In 1907 and some light also
was thrown on a loan Of $500 900 made
by the Mercantile National on August B..
1907, 10 Frederick Eckstein, an employe
of the United Copper company. Ecksteln
testified that he had no hand in the loan,
knew nothing about IL before II was
made and turned the entire S60O.Oo0i over
to the account Of Schult2e who acted as
trustee in certain copper stock transac-
tions.
1t has been the contention Of the pros
ecution that the defendant was Interested
in n United Copper pool in 1907 and that
the Mercantile's funds were used to fur
ther the pools interests. The govern
ment will attempt TO connect Helnze with
the syndicate that Schultze said existed
in 1907. and TO show that this so-called
pool continued until October Il, 1907.
From Eckstein Mr., Wise tried to show
that Arthur p. He!nze. another brother of
the defendant was interested in the syn
dicate or pool OF 1907. Eckstein said he
received checks from Arthur Heinze
which he supposed went to some thing
like that but he did not think it was
a pool.
''Dldn't you contribute $4,000 to a pool
in United Copper In the summer OF 1907
OF which Arthur Heinge was a mem
ber?" asked Mr., Wise.
Mr. Heinze asked me for $4,000. saving
he'd make money for me. replied Eek
