ward Tilden, Chicago packer, and Will
liam c.. Cummings and George M. Bene-
dict, president and cashier of the
Drovers Trust and Savings bank of
Chicago, were ordered arrested on a
contempt charge by the Illinois senate
tonight The vote was 40 to Z.
This action was taken on recommen-
dation Of the senate bribery investlga-
tion committee after Tilden, Cummings
and Benedict, through their lawyers,
had refused to produce Tilden' s pres
ent bank accounts for May, June, July
and August, 1909.
The committee believes these bank
accounts will show evidence of the use
of the money in the election of Will
liam Lorimer to the United States SEN
ate. Tilden had submitted an affidavit
before the senate, savin" these ac
counts show nothing directly or indi.
rectly bearing upon the election of
Lorimer.
Tilden's Stipulation.
He also had offered. In letter to
the committee, to allow one member of
the committee to 90 to Chicago and
examine these bank accounts, Tilden
made the express stipulation that he
should be allowed to designate the mem-
ber
The committee took the position. in
which it WAS sustained by the senate,
that it could not allow Tilden to die
tate the conditions upon which the
bank accounts should be investigated.
The committee also insisted that the
subpoe"I served upon Tilden, asking
For hn No "
specific and was not so.called "drag-
metz subpoena, as was contended by
his counsel
Lieutenant Governor John G. Ogles-
by, Immediately following the adop
tion of the committee recommendations
announced he would not assume re
sponsibility of issuing the warrants
for the arrest Of the three Chicago
men. Senator Helm then placed the re-
sponsibility upon the body of the SEN
ate in motion directing Lieutenant
Governor Oglesby to issue warrant
for the arrest of Tilden
When this motion had been adopted
the senate adopted similar motions in
relation to Cummings and Benedict.
Habeas Corpus Proceedings.
Warrants for the three men were
placed in the hands Of y. l.. Hatfield,
assistant sergeant alarms, and he was
directed to go Immediately to Chicago
and make the arrests.
Attorney Sears, counsel for Tilden,
before leaving the senate chamber, told
Senator Jones. floor leader, that babeas
corpus proceedings viii be started in
Chicago tomorrow morning.
The senate order for the arrest of
the men followed an entire day of argu-
ment by counsel for both sides and de.
bate by members before the body of
the senate.
Former State Senator Cyril r. Jandus
of Chicago was n witness before the
senate committee tonight.
Jandus appeared with his bank ac.
counts for the year 1909. They showed
that Jandus made two deposits aggre-
eating $4l23 in June and July. 1909
He was unable to give the source of
these deposits. in no other months in
1909 did Jandus's deposits amount to
more than few hundred dollars.

OPEN MARKET FOR
COPPER IS LIKELY
Action of United Metals Selling
Company in Reducing Price
Is Significant.
Special to The Tribune.

Special TO The Tribune
NEW YORK, April 26.-The action of
the United Metals Selling COM
pany, which markets the enormous out
put Of the allied properties Of the Anal
gamated Copper company. in reducing the
price Of copper from 12i 10 124 cents
pound was amplifed into supposition in
the financial district today that an open
market of the commodity is likely to
follow soon. In other words, that cop
per will be sold at such prices as the law
of supply and demand calls for. ad-
mitting. OF course, profit TO the pro-
ducer.
II such step is taken in marketing the
product or the largest mining combina-
tion OF the country IL will mark a radi-
cal change from the policy of the past.
In the face of overproduction and
dwiudling demand the price OF copper has
to l3 cents pound for months. and only
recently was lowered to 12a cents and
now To n quarter cent lower. The
average cost of preparing copper for the
market is reckoDed slightly above cents
pound, although some of the independ-
ent concerns can place their output upon
the market at q fraction above cents
The latter fact is considered largely re-
sponsible for yesterdays announcement OF
123-cent copper, for heavy sales have
been made lately by other companies than
the Amalgamated close TO the 12-cent
level.

DUTCH TAKE BARREN

Willing to Let Go of One of
Philippine Group.

MANILA. April 27.-Delayed advices
Dutch have taken possession of Palmas
island. sixty miles southeast of Minda-
mao. lowered the American colors and
substituted therefor the flag Of Holland.
1t Is understood here that Washington
does not intend To protest against the
action OF the Dutch, the American gov
ernment regarding the Island as value
less.
WASHINGTON. April ga little
ing cap. evidently the gift OF Dutch
captain. precipitated the Issue OF SOW
ereignty OF the Palmas island about two
years ago and the state department hur-
redly consulted its maps and records:
but the whole question died out almost
at its inception for want OF interest.
The Washington government has no
particular desire for the Palmas group.
although It has been deemed part OF
the Philippine archipelago. Down where
the Palmas natives live, without an
American among them, there Is nothing
10 interest this government and neither
1t nor Holland has ever felt called upon
TO leave anybody in authority on Palmas
domain.
Probably half Il hundred FilipIpos con-
stitute the entire Palmas population.
The Washington government has no
advices regarding any recent develop
ment and one official said. aside from
sentiment 1t made no difference whose
flag noated there. Communication with
marks the southeastern limit of the Phil
ippjnes toward Borneo, and the United
States has not sought officially to keep
in touch with the Palrnas people.
