Autos hummed on the roads until

OF Manitou has never been the center

for is described as a good-looking
fellow Of medium height and fairly
heavy build with fair hair and NOUS
tache and blue eyes. He wore a blue
worsted suit and gray hat.

1t is stated here that he name is
Henry Wilson, and that with a part

is said to have been in Manitou on
Saturday and to have purchased some
bottles of liquor. Two bloodhounds

peg, are on the ground, but their
trainer has some fears of employing
them in tracking as the man for
whom they are searching is armed
and might destroy the animals.

GOVERNORS WILL:

Spring Lake, N. j., Sept. 15.-Tle
governors of twenty-five states OF the
union voted this afternoon to unite

slider an invasion of states right by
federal courts.
The decision Of Judge Sanborn. in
the Minnesota rate case, Is the parti-
cular invasion" to which the COVER
nors object. BY their action they es-
tablish q precedent in American his
story.
Judson Harmon, governor Of Ohio,
and former attorney general of the
United States, will head a committee
Of protest. His colleagues will be
Herbert 8. Hadley, governor Of Mis-
souri, and Chester H. Aldrich. gover-
nor of Nebraska. The motion to ap-
point such committee to voice the
views of the conference was made by
Governor Emmett O'Neal of Alabama.
which placed the membership at five.
Action was declared unanimous, Az
though Governor William w. Kitchin,
Of North Carolina, the twenty-sixth
delegate, who alone opposed it, did
so. he said, solely because 1t would
be departure from precedent.
Governor Harmon supplied the
original suggestion for the plan, ac-
cording to Governor O'Neal. In the
sharp debate which followed the
measures introduction, Governor
Harmon took no part.
Introduction of the motion was un-
expected by the mapority of the dele
gates. Governor Aldrich's ringing de-
nunciation of what he termed the in
vasion of the functions and rights of
the states by the minor federal
courts, discussed during the forenoon
session, provoked enthusiastic ap-
plause and was followed in the after
noon by an address by Governor
Francis =. McGovern Of Wisconsin,
upon the same topic. With tho sub
ject fresh in mind, the governors de-
bated the question for an hour or
more before Governor O'Neal intro
duced his motion.
During his speech, Governor AL
drich referred in terms of condemna-
tion to the decision of Justice San
born of the United States circuit
court in the Minnesota rate case. He
explained that the point of the de-
cision was that the states intra-
state rate law was unconstitutional
because it could not be enforced with
out interfering in its operation with
the authity Of the interstate COM
merce commission. This. he thought,
was clearly an invasion Of states

This is a measure of vital import

O'Neal, land as such it should be
dealt with by the states through their
chief executives. The states ought to

The first known Of the robbery was
when the Chinese caretaker arrived at
the police station at $50 o'clock and
gave the alarm. He had managed to

gagged and tied to chair. Then the
robbers proceeded to collect the gold

scientific demonstration. For ex-

novelty, for she was also gray nine
months before, at the time the king

is the belief in this phenomenon that
few have the hardihood to doubt it..
And now Stieda, hard-headed Ger

isn't so at all. This refractory Ger
man first proves that such a thing
couldn't possibly happen, and then,
not satisfied, declares that it never
did happen. With equal disregard Of
folklore, history and medical litera-

and challenges many long-deceased
