suFFRAG|sTs PLAN
TO CHARTER FERRY
Will Hold Big Outing AAoat II
Speeches on Belle Isle Are
Definitely Barred.

Not to be sidetracked by the rul-
ing Of mere man-Park Commission
er Hurlbut, by the way--the members
of the Detroit Equal Suffrage club
plan to charter ferry boat for their
proposed picnic. The commissioner
has decreed that suffrage workers
cannot have addesses on suffrage or
any other subject II they hold their
outing on the island; in fact, he actu-
ally sent them copy of the ordinance
which prohibits public speaking on
Belle Isle. However, the women will
make one more effort to overcome the
ruling of the commissioner: they will
see Mayor Thompson on his return
to the city. IL the latter fails TO grant
permission for the speeches, then to
the ferry boat for the suffragists. They
believe they can finance the river trip
without much difficulty, by taxing
each member so cents. The scheme
was suggested In the meeting OF the
club, Friday afternoon, but didn't meet
with unanimous approval, because o.
the fear that 1t would be too big al
undertaking, financially. However
| some of the members are enthusias
tic over the plan and will likely bring
1t to a successful issue II speaking on
Belle Isle is definitely barred.
Several prominent speakers have
been mentioned for the boat picnic,
among them being Mayor Brand Whit
lock, of Toledo. 1t Is believed that he
can be secured.
The club, acting ON the suggestion
of Miss Clara e. Dyar, means to make
an investigation into the manner In
which women In prisons and working
girls In factories are treated. The in
quiry is not TO be undertaken In any
spirit Of criticism, the members OF the
club merely desiring to improve the
labor and prison conditions for wo-
men II improvements are needed.
Miss Nellie Cunningham was elect
ed chairman OF a committee TO keep
up the summer work Of promoting the
suffrage propaganda. The club also
took steps to arrange for neighbor-
hood suffrage meetings next year.
Hereafter the club win hold two
meetings a month, the first and third
Fridays. The third Friday will be de-
voted to study OF the political ques-
tions Of the day.

TO SUE WESTERN
LUMBER TRUST
Governments Suit Against Eastern
Combine Is Preliminary To Second
and Larger Prosecution.

WASHINGTON, May 20.-The gov
ernment's suit against eastern lum
bermen, filed at New York, Is prelmi'
mary to second and larger prosecu
tion shortly to be instituted against
a western Lumber trust" alleged
.Unreasonably" TO restrain inter,
state commerce, according to informa'
ton here today.
II was pointed out that investiga
tions of the bureau of corporations OF
the department of commerce and Ia
Dor and the secret force OF the depart
ment of justice have disclosed a com
munity OF interests In the lumber trade
of the west and middle west. Accord
ing to information available at the
bureau of corporations. this investiga-
ton shows that nearly one-half OF
the privately-owned timber In west
ern states Is in the ownership or con-
troll of a western combination.
The Michigan Retail Lumber Deal
ers' association, of Grand Rapids, Is
one of the companies investigated by
the department of justice. 1t Is claim
ed that in that state the retail as
sociation not only dominates the
prices and the territory to which deal
ers must operate but THAT number
Of manufacturers have been driven to
the wall by monopoly.
"Five-elevenths of the country's
privately-owned standing timber is In
the Pacific northwest, California,
Washington, Idaho and Montana"
says the bureau OF corporations re.
port And one-half Of this Is now
owned by thirty-seven holders; many
of these are closely connected. This
section furnishes only one-sixth Of the
annual cut. Thus, its timber is be
ing largely held for the future, and
the large owners there will be the
dominating influence in the industry
The Southern Pacific company
holding Is the greatest In the United
States - 10000, 100000 feet. Il
stretches $50 miles between Portland
and Sacramento. The second larges,
holder Is the Weyerhauser Timbel

COMMITTEE DECIDES TO
CUT WOOL DUTIES ONE-HALF

Put Commodity on Free List.


Put Commodity on Free List.
WASHINGTON, May 20.--A cut of
one-half in the duties on wool was de-
cided on at a meeting of the ways and
means committee Of the house today
and work was Immediately begun
drafting the bill which will be placed
before the Democratic caucus.
At the same time an ultimatum was
delivered to the senate leaders by the
house Democrats that unless the sem
ate proceeds to vote at once on the
farmers free list bill and the wool
schedule, soon -to=be=p =passed-by-
house, the democrats will not agree
to recess but will keep congress in
session all summer.
Shamp Clark and Rep. Underwood,
after weeks of work, believe they have
succeeded In overcoming the powerful
Influences In the house that were
determined to secure free wool. At
todays meeting Of the Democrats OF
the ways and means committee, II was
agreed to cut the present duty TO
eleven cents a pound on raw wool
to FIVE cents, with a fifty percent ro-
duction on the manufactured pro-
duct.
The Democrats are not very par
ticular whether the bills go through
the senate or not, but they are deter.
mined the leaders declared today, TO
have the senate on record when they
go back to the people this fall.
II have been hoping for recess
from July to October 1, said Sen

WAY To CURB THE

Members of Both House and Senate
Will Take Advantage of Neglected
Provision in Constitution and

Standard Oil Decision Spurs Them To
Activity on Plan To Prevent

BY gibson GARDNER.


WASHINGTON, May 20.-Can con
gress curb the supreme court?
An Affirmative answer TO this ques
tion has been worked out In the coun
ellis of the progressive members OF th'
senate and house Of representatives
And the remedies are TO be applied
There will probably be a bitter fight
but the remedy will be applied IL pro
gressive Republicans and Democrat
remain in power.
Section 2, Of Article III of the consti
tuition OF the United States Is to bt
inyoked-for the second time In his
tory. This section defines and limits
the powers of the supreme court anc
the last paragraph reads
In all the other cases, before
mentioned the supreme court
shall have appellate jurisdiction.
both as to law and fact, with such
exceptions and under such regu-
lations as the congress shall make.
Applying this power OF congress II
Is proposed TO introduce and pass
two bills.
(D A bill adding to the Sher-
man antitrust act this simple
amendment: "Of whatever char
acter" These words are to follow
the words prohibiting restraints OF
trade and are intended to do away
with the word reasonable"
which has been read into the law
by the supreme court.
C2J A bin providing that no
law shall be declared unconstitu-
tional by the supreme court ex-
cept by the unanimous vote OF all
nine supreme court justices.
The power of congress TO regulate
the supreme court has been so long
neglected that It has been almost for,
gotten. Few people realize that the
constitution reposes such power II
the representatives of the people
Such, however, is the fact.
This power was invoked In the
house of representatives In 1868. Or
Jan. 13, 1868, the house Of represent
atives amended, and passed o senate
bill which had been introduced b,
Senator Trumbull for the purpose o
fixing at FIVE judges q quorum Of th'
supreme court The amendment add
ed by the house was as follows:
Section 2. And be II further
enacted, That no cause pending
before the supreme court Of the
United States shall be decided
adversely to the validity of such
law without the concurrence of
two-thirds OF all the members OF
said court In the decision upon
the several points In which said
law or any part thereof may be
deemed invalid.
Another amendment was added
providing that all laws declared un
constitutional by lower courts must
come up to the supreme court.
The senate bill thus amended was
adopted in the house by a vote o,
116 to 39-not voting, 33.
The bill was returned to the sen
