FAMILY COMBINED.

Kansas City. April 5.-Another war
ranty deed was filed for Elmer Swope,
contestant for the Swope millions
this morning. and with this deed COM
es the practical assurance that DIR.
and Mrs. B. C. Hyde and Elmer
Swope have joined forces to fight the
Swope family.
1t also practically means that the
same attorneys-John NJ. Cleary. Will
liam T. johnson and Frank P. Walsh
who will defend Doctor Hyde
against the eleven charges of murder
and typhoid poisoning, will attack the
Swope family's Golfers in the interest
of Elmer Swope of AIartinsburg, w.
Va.
Still the Lawyers are Silent
All this came to light this morning
when John NJ Cleary and William T.
Johnson caused to be filed deed
from Elmer Swope conveying all his
rights and interest in the estate of
Thomas H. Swope to the Kansas City
Trust company, of which William T.
Johnson, one of Mrs. Hyde's attor-
neys, is president. This excepts. of
course, the legacy of Mrs. Hyde
Nformerly Frances Swope). which was
made exempt by deed from Elmer
Swope yesterday.
Whether today's action means that
Mrs. Hyde has recognized Elmer
Swope as a cousin the attorneys re-
fuse to say. They. also decline to dis
cuss any possibility Of handling the
will contest. but it is believed general
ly among attorneys that this will be
done.
Contest After the Murder Trial
In conveying the property to the
Kansas City Trust company. the deed
gives the right for the suits for the
estate to be begun in the name of the
trust company. Just when this suit
will be begun has not been told. but
it is believed nothing will be done
until after the murder trial Of Doctor
Hyde. which is to begin April II. And
when that is over there will begin a
contest that may last through many
years.
Naturally. the attorneys for Doctor
Hyde aren't saying they are to be the
attorneys for Elmer Swope in collabo-
ration with T. A. Milton, who has
been Swope's attorney all along. 1t
is known. however. that John NJ.
Cleary recently made mysterious
trip east. That was about March IA.
The deeds both bear that date and
when Mr.. Cleary was asked about it
this morning he said he really could
not discuss the matter"
Has Elmer Q Marriage License2
The will contes: is to be one Of
revelations. according to an attorney
who also has been investigating. Be
sides marriage license. Elmer Swope
possesses many other things, it is
said. to prove his contention that he
really is a son of Colonel Thomas H.
Swope. The estate for which the
fight will be made is valued at about
two and one-half million dollars.
after the $3s6.O0O, the right to which
was conveyed to Mrs. Hyde yesterday,
has been deducted. Nieces and neph-
ews of Colonel Swope. to whom the
property was left. will be the defen-
dants.

FOOD QUESTION
Senate Committee Not Yet Able t
Analyze Its figures.

Washington. April 5.-Senator
Lodge, chairman of the select commit
tee which in Investigating the cost of
living today, presented to the senate
mass of data supplied by consular
officers in Europe through the state
department.
Although it is difficult to make
comparison from the form in which
the data is given, the committee is
convinced that the deductings will
show that wages in no European
country have kept pace with the in
crease in the United. States, and that
rents and foodstuffs have advanced
out Of proportion to incomes. especi-
ally as applied to, the laboring classes.
The committee expects later to an
alyze the figures and make special
report covering this character of in
formation.

IS INTERESTED
Telegraph Companies Can Not Censor
Measures Filed for Transmission.

New York, April 5.-Intimations
from Washington that the federal gov
ernment is keenly interested in the
leased wire contracts under which
some of the companies indicted in
Washington for running bucketshops
are said to have paid the Western
Union Telegraph company 100000 a
year each, brought forth statement
from Belvedere Brooks. vice presi-
dent Of the American Telephone and
Telegraph company, and the new
general manager of the Western
Union. Some years ago the Western
Union abandoned its racing service to
pool rooms.
Mr.. Brooks said in part today:
Telegraph companies are required
to render service to the public without
discrimination, and cannot and
should not be permitted to inquire in
to the character of the message or its
purpose. 1t is impracticable for a
telegraph company to investigate the
business affairs of persons dealing
with. it, and it is under no duty to
make such investigation. In most of
the states this right of the public to
have its business transmitted is pro-
vided for by severe statutory penalty.
Neither the courts nor the public
would for an instant permit a tele-
graph company to act as censor"

THE BEST TARIFF
Law IN HISTORY
Chairman Payne Declares It Is
Confusing the Liars Who
Oppose It

\ Washingtn, April 5-"The present
tariff law Is every day confusing the
many liars who attack It," declared
Representative Serene E. Payne of
New York, one Of the authors of the
law as he was leaving the white house
today after tariff conference with
President Taft. Mr.. Payne appear
ed annoyed to the point of being al
most angry. From every standpoint
1t is the most successful bill this
country has ever had. he declared. 1T
talks for itself every day in the up
building of American business at home
and abroad. The maximum and Min
mum provisions of the bill alone have
opened the markets of the world to
the goods Of the. United States.
The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1910-04-05

passed on lumber, and can not
stand for It now. But Democratic
senators did stand and fight for It,
aud stand for It now.
Like President Taft wanted the
ancient woolen schedule reduced IA
schedule forty-two years old, which,
II ever right, long since has served
its purpose. and which now gives to
the .woolen trust an unfair control of
our, markets; which ,oppresses the
wool grower, raises the price and re-
duces the weight Of the peoples
clothing. stood against that sched-
ule when we tried to reduce 1t, when
the bill was passed, and am against
1t now. ..
II could not stand for an increase
Of duties on cotton cloth. the higher
grades Of which are used as clothing
by every man, woman and child, rich
or poor. throughout the whole repub-
lie. could not stand for that with
out evidence; and when the manu-
facturers themselves formally declar-
ed before the house committee that
their business was thriving, their la
Dor employed and that all they ask
ed was that the tariff on cotton
should not be decreased. stood
against those increases on cotton
goods when the schedule was voted
on; stood against them when the
bill was passed; and stand against
them now.
II could not stand for an increase
on structural steel. punched and
ready for use, out Of which all mod
ern buildings are constructed and
with which bridges all over the coun-
try are builded; and I can not stand
for it now.
Silk Incheases.
II could not stand for an increase
Of duties on those linoleums which
are the poor mans carpet; or on
zinc, which is universal necessity;
or on silk, which Is a part of the
clothing or aaornment Of every Amer
ican woman. rich or poor; and l can
not stand for them now.
II could not stand for the obsolete
and infamous sugar schedule, which
no man in Indiana can read and un-
derstand, but which the sugar trust
can read and understand; yet efforts
to change that schedule were oppos-
ed by Democratic votes. We reduced
the tariff on refined sugar five cents
per one hundred pounds
tieth of one cent, a half Of one mill,
a pound-which was worse than no
reduction because it cannot possibly
affect the price and therefore is de-
ception. Yet that is one of the boast
ed reductions we hear Of.
"1t is said that the law has made
reductions on articles entering into
the consumption of the people to the
value Of five billion dollars; yet those
articles are made up of such things
as lumber, agricultural implements
meat and food products, petroleum
and its products, of all of which we
are the greatest exporters In the
world; steel rails and coal, which We
export:se baYbed wire, monopoliseds by
the steel trust; nails. manufactured
and sold by In international trust a
complete as the international tobacco
monopoly; yarns and threads; thu
raw materials for textiles, on which
textiles. when finished for the peo.
ples use. the tariff was increased
sugar, which was not reduced ir
fact, but only in pretense.
The Tariff Commission.
above all, could not stand fol
the slaughter by the conference com.
mittee of the moderate beginning OF
tariff commission which wrote in.

Milwaukee, April 5-Municipal

ton Of the liquor traffic.
