Meat and Cancer.

In view of the fact that meat, ana
especially fresh meat. is comparative.
ly very cheap In Australia. and In con.
sequence its use probably very much
more general than In any other coun.

of meat being frequently associated
with cancer to note the Incidence Of
this disease.

reported in the Commonwealth was

MRS. P. HICHBORN
HERE WITH MOTHER
Husbands Family Opposed
to a Reconciliation.

Mrs. Philip Hichborn arrived in
Washington yesterday. accompanied by
her younger brother, who met the steam
er in New York. Mrs. Hichborn went
Immediately to the home of her mother,
Mrs. Henry NJ Hoyt, 17o1 Rhode Island
avenue northwest, where she will stay
indefinitely.
When a reporter called at Mrs. Hoyt's
residence yesterday he was told Mrs
Hichborn would not be seen, and that
the family knew nothing concerning a
reconciliation between Mr.. and Mrs.
Hichborn.
It was said Mrs. Hichborn will make
her home with her mother, who has be-
come reconciled, and that anything re-
garding Mr.. Hichborn was not in the
minds of the family.
1t is said that the family Of Mr.. Hich-
born, who is at Black Rock. New London,
Conn, with his three-year-old son, is
strongly opposed to any compromise be-
tween himself and wife.
Mrs. Hoyt, who is the widow of Henry
NJ. Hoyt, counselor for the State De-
partment, has always stood by her daugh-
ter since she left Washington under
circumstances which resulted in her name
being linked with that Of Horace Wylie
She said a while ago that her daughter
would eventually ccme back to her.
Mrs. Horace Wylie. 1t is reported, will
toin her husband either In New York
or Europe, returning probably to her

LA TOILETTE FLAYS
LORIMER LOBBYIST

Senator La Toilette, In the third in
stallment OF his speech in support Of his
resolution for another investigation Of
the Lorimer case. yesterday bitterly at
tackled Edward Hines, head Of the So
called lumber trust. who has been ac-
cused Of having raised . fund for use in
accomplishing Lorimer's election to the
Senate Senator La Toilette pictured
Hines as a lobbyist Of the ''brazen and
impudent" type
He caused stir in the Senate by in
timating that Hines and his lieutenants
had been at work In the campaign which
resulted in the election Of Senator
Stephenson. Mr.. La Follette's colleague.
in Wisconsin.
Mr.. La Toilette did not mention Sena-
tor Stephenson by name. But he made
it clear whom he meant.
Il want to say to the Senate Of the
United States and to the country" ex-
claimed Senator La Toilette, that Ed
ward Hines is not a raw hand at this
business, though his work is often rank
and coarse. During another protracted
Senatorial contest, which was likewise in
volved in scandal, his henchmen were no.
toriously for the successful candidate
When all honest men were in doubt as
to the outcome, one Of Hines agents
boastfully foretold days in advance the
hour Of election and the exact result.
And his principal agent. who was a resi-
dent Of Wisconsin-that Is the State to
which I refer-has not dared to remain
since that time within the borders Of the
State"
Hines himself has denied the charge
that he raised money for use in Lorimers
election. Senator La Toilette. however,
declared that Hines interest in the Lori
mer case was clearly shown when Lori
mer was threatened at the last session.
The Democrats of the Senate are in a
tangle as to how they will vote on the
reopening Of the Lorimer case, and as
result Minority Leader Martin has called
caucus for this morning to consider
the subject Most of the new Democratic
Senators are opposed to the resolution
offered by Senator Martin, which directs
that the investigation be made by the
Senate Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tions.

tions are different. They don't seek
the Gospel with such assiduity az Of
old. 1t Is the preachers ONCE to al
ways keep them on edge: to shock
them. II necessary, to rivet their atten-
ton"
In explaining the particular interpreta-
ton Of his application Of the shocking
method, DR.. Grant explained, <'at times
people in the pews seem to lose their
interest in things religious. Sermons
based on the exact teachings Of the Bible
fail to have the wanted effect, to furnish
food for thought that will lead to closer
study Of the Scripture to satisfy per-
sonal doubt"

boards adopted Professionally last Satur-
day met quick death on the floor Of the
assembly as the final work Of the after
noon session. The Rev. Mark Mathews.

ator. led in the opposition. He intro
duced an amendment to the resolution
offered by the executive commission, by
which they planned federation Of the

the proposition.

KING L|T|GANT"
Of, TWO STATES
KEPT IN ASYLUM
Harrison Wagner Is Refused
Habeas Corpus Writ.
CAREER Is UNEQUALED

Harrison Wagner, "the eternal
litigant," as he is known in the Dis
trict, Maryland, and Virginia, and
an inmate of the Government Hos
pital for the Insane, has been re-
fused the writ of habeas corpus
asked for by his counsel, Attorneys
R. P. and T. R. HIT.
REFUSED BY CLABAUGH.
Chief Justice Clabaugh, who refused
the writ, ordered an inquisition into the
mental condition Of Wagner, who. a few
years ago, committed perjury in connec-
ton with one Of his numerous cases be-
fore the courts. Sentence. however. was
deferred at the time by reason Of a jury
finding him to be of unsound mind and
committing him to st. >Elizabeth's.
Later Wagner was paroled in the Gus
tody Of his brother. a resident Of Ohio.
on the theory that the patient had i'm
proved, but not that he was mentally re-
stored. The personal recognizance Of the
prisoner was taken by the court to await
sentence, which has never been imposed.
Wagner returned to this Jurisdiction
against the order Of the court. and Jus
tice Gould ordered him returned to the
asylum on the original commitment,
holding that DIR. White acted without au-
thority in conditionally releasing Wag-
ner.
Wagner Is known in the District as
the eternal Iitigant," while in Mary
land and Virginia the people who know
him call him the king Of litigants" The
courts Of the District. Maryland. and Vir-
ginia have been burdened by lawsuits
Wagner has instituted.
Years ago he is said to have had q
career in Maryland unequaled In the his
tory Of English or American jurispru-
dence. Those against whom he brought
civil actions are legion. After duping
the courts and justices Of the peace III
Maryland. his native State. until his list
Of names was exhausted. he invaded the
District for further operations. The
deputy marshals here were soon busy
serving Wagner's writs upon unsuspecting
victims. He went over to Virginia. where
he repeated his operations.
Judgments by Default.
Wagner is known to have collected few
Of these judgments. but not because Of
his failure to try. He went from place
to place getting out executions against
his victims. In most instances 1t never
became known to the defendants that
they had been sued. until 1t was too late
Judgments In most cases had gone
against them by default.
Nearly all the innocent parties pleaded
they had never been notified Of the pend
ing suit His persistent efforts In sew
eral cases in Maryland and Virginia to
collect Judsments for big sums resulted
in the suits being carried to the higher
court, where his gigantic scheme was laid
bare. The story. as reported in the Of
fetal records Of Maryland, has been re-
ferred to by lawyers as the romance Of
the law.

the handing in of the verdict.
Lack of interest displayed by mem
bers of his congregation, some of whom
dosed away during the preaching of the

of his apparently startling statements,
