iBEG1sAR HITS vA6RANcY LAW

&
Thomas Welsh, arrested Sunday
If ternoon while begging meal at the
home Of John P. O'Connor. POST Selby
avenue, demurred in police court this
morning to complaints charging him
with vagrancy and begging. Welsh,
who said he hailed from Covington,
KY, argued his own case, and Judge
finehout Was So impressed that he de-
ferred ruling on the demurrer until
Friday.
Welsh says he is standing on his con-
stitutional rights and that if Judge
Finehout rules against him he will APP
peal to Judge Willard of the United
States district court for writ of
habeas corpus.
The Aindictments, 2 as Welsh termed
the complaints, were insufficient, he
said, because they did not state the
time, place, intent and crime alleged to
have been committed. He said the
vagrancy ordinance is unconstitutional
because it is class legislation and is
used to imprison innocent men.
The supreme court, )" said Welsh,
never has and never will hold law
valid that imprisons men for being
poor. = To the accusation that he has
no visible means of support, Welsh re-
piled: 'The co ordinating power of
muscle and brains is the only visible
means of support that nature and God
have conferred on any man.
4 As to the begging charge, Welsh de-
clared that the constitution guarantees
free speech. "No law can specify
what we must say to each other; it can
merely specify that our language must
be civil, and every person has as good
q legal right to speak to another about
money and food as he has to talk about
q horse race, religion, politics or any
other subject.
Welsh declared he had never asked
for more than the necessities of life.
s'You cannot sanction suicide" he said
to the judge, ".s.er does the law expect
the physically impossible from any
man.
.'The allegations, argued Welsh in
court, .''do not specify any crime
against man, nature or God, and my
imprisonment is in conflict with the
constitutional provision guaranteeing

STOLE AUTOMOBILE
 AND KILLED A BOY.
Robert Taft of Springfield Confesses te
 Hartford Police.

Hartford, Conn.,, Oct. 26-By the ar- rest of Robert R. Taft of Springfield, Mass. and his confession to the po- lice the identity of a sixteen years old boy killed near Buchanan, Virginia by the overturning of an automobile the latter part of September was es- abolished. Taft said that the boys name was Richard Clark and that his home was also in Springfield.
 Taft confessed that he in company with Clark and third companion stole in this city on the night Of September 29 an automobile owned by George L. Bidwel1 They drove through sev- eral cities in the state, being fired upon by the Stamford police for not stop ping when ordered to do so and con tinued on down to Virginia. Whila going down the mountains near Blu chanan the machine ran into a tree and was overturned, inifcting injuries on Clark which caused his death. They gave the authorities of that place fictitious names and left after Clark d5ed.
 The police were advised tonight that the third man had been arrested in Springfield, Mass, and gave his name as Peter Mason. He is said to have admitted that he was the third man in the case.

FEDERAL GRAND JURY
 TIC INVESTIGATE M'NAMARAS
Latest Development May Change En-
 tire Aspect of Case.

Los Angeles. Cal, Oct. 26.-Reports from Indianapolis today that a fed eral grand jury would investigate the so called McNamara dynamiting cases supplied a theme for consideration to- day by counsel for defense of John J. and James E. McNamara and at tracted attention in the office of Dis trict Attorney John D. FTedericks as well.
 Clarence $. Darrow, chief counsel for the defense, telegra phed to Indian apolis for more information.
 A lull in court procedure while a new venire was being summoned gave opportunity for regarding the sub feet. It was believed that the whole aspect of the case might be changed by the action of the. federal authorities tnd that the McNamaras, under nine teen indictments for murder in the de- struction of the LOS Angeles Times building, might enter upon an entirely changed legal status.
 It was admitted tonight that the in vestigation might make it easier for the prosecution to institute proceed ings to obtain certain records the fn- diana antiquities have refused to give tip.
 Lack of this evidence was said to be one of the reasons why James B.. lIcNamara's case is tried first.

PREPARED TO FIGHT.
Government Action Expected But Not
 at This Time.

New York. Oct. 2s.-The United States Steel corporation is prepared to fight for it's existence. The men at the helm of the great corporation were silent when the news came to them that the blow which has been awaited so long had fallen. Although it was expected that sooner or later the 'bil- lion-dollar combine" would be put to the test under the Sherman law, even the highest officials of the corporation had no inlsling that the suit would be filed at this time. The attitude of the corporation is set forth clearly, how ever, in a statement which it issued one month ago today. In that state ment it proclaimed it's belief that it was within tht law. It declared over the signature of J. P. Morgan that it would not dissolve voluntarily.
 Because of the fear that the corpor- ation would be dissolved, holders of Steel stocks and bonds in all parts of the country have sold their securities in enormous amounts during rectnt months. Liquidation became so heavy fast month that for a time the stock market was demoralized. It was on account of this that the directors is- sued their statement and in their ef- fort to stay the prevalent apprehen- sion they to some extent succeeded.

MERCHANTS HONEST.
Derby SeaIer of Weights and Meas
 ures Found Little Cheating.

The report of the work done by Der by's sealer of weights and measures, R. J. Brassill, which was submitted to che board of aldermen at its~ st meeting, was something of a surprise to the members of the board. It was the first time that such a report had ever been given and the first time that the board ever got any idea of what the seaIer does in the way of correct ing weights and measures. Whether the present sealer has done his work as thoroughly as some previous one, there is no way of telling, as there is nothing on file with the city to show what the others have done. The thing a bout the present report that is prov ing interesting that not all the scales and measures in the citytare false and that not all of them are perfect There are a whole lot of people doing busi- ness who still believe that sixteen ounces make 8 pound. There are ev- ldeptly some, judging from the mum Der of false scales and measures found. who have forgotten this or else their scales and measures have shrunk. Some of these scales were not chron- ically deficient, because the sealer gave the owners a chance to correct them, and they were corrected. Others were so far out of the way that they had to be destroyed.

MUST INCREASE LIST
 ABOUT s4,ooo, 900
New Lonoon Finds 1t Has Suffered
 Much Loss During the Year.
New LLondon. Oct. 26

New LLondOn, Oct. 26.-
 The special tax commission of New Lonaon has had it's initial meeting with the assessors.
 It was brought out in the discus sion that over $500,000 of taxable property has been removed from the tax list during the past year. The New England Navigation company has sold three or four big steamers, which no longer hail from that port, and about $55,000 worth of real estate has been exempted from taxation by pass ing from former owners to the Con- necticut Woman's college and to the $S,000 year revenue which will have to be made up. Two Central Vermont steamers plying between this port and New fork are on the tax list for $780, 900, but the company has refused to pay the assessment. Having failed to get an aba tement of the total amount from the board of relief it will take an appeal to the courts. The company claims its boats hail from Portland, place, fails, to verify that claim No doubt the steamboat company pays taxes somewhere on these boats. at some port along the Atlantic coast but so far it has declined to make a statement to that effect A state law provides that personal property can be taxed in this state if maintained here seven months in the year. The con- pany claims that as it's boats run to New York every other day they are not in the state seven months of the year.
 To meet the estimated expenses of the city it will be necessary under a 16-mill tax, to increase the grand list something like s4,000,o0o.

Saw Man With Handkerchief Over

Indianapolis. Oct. s6-Detectives sought tonight to verify the story of J. C.

 Whether or not the man who Carr declares he saw had any connection with the death of Dr. Knab, the po- lice said they had no reason to doubt that he had heard woman's scream ing in Dr. knalbe's apartment and that this fact practically destroyed cred ence in the theory that the physician committed suicide
