they have dealt with the Chinese, but
7 hope that they will deal so firmly
with them that they win never come

The Chinese are peace-loving race
While the 'feudal age in Japan was

China twenty-five centuries ago
Since then the Chinese have learned
to know the strength and beauty of
peace
IF the Manchus are driven out, 1t
Is possible that the capital of the

heart as belonging to China's classic
age Of poetry and song"

Chicago, Nov. 1.-THE indicted
Chicago packers who are seeking
ruling from the United States su-
preme court on The validity of the
Sherman anti-trust act expressed
themselves as much encouraged late
today when United States Circuit
Judge Kohlsaat said he saw llttle
reason to question the effectiveness of
the case today of the defendants upon
which the disputed habeas corpus
proceedings originated.
Although Judge Kohlsaat announce
ed he would not hand down his de-
csion on the governments motion 70
quash the habeas corpus writ until
tomorrow SOME oi those interested IN
the defense hailed the courts prac-
teal decision of the point OF custody
as a forerunner of victory Tor the
packers in the habeas corpus fight.
In the arguments before Judge
Kohlsaat, Attorney John 5. Miller
for the packers, said:
Public interest demands that the
question whether men are criminals
under a law as vague as the sherman
act be settled quickly.
Business interests are menaced ana
shackled by this uncertain, this pima
act"
District Attorney Wilkerson, IN pre-
senting arguments to support the
governments motion to quash the
writ of habeas corpus, said.
II assure your honor that the only
effect Of making permanent this writ
of habeas corpus will be to add year
and n half or two wears to the delay
in getting to the trial of these defend
ants.
There is no reason to believe that
the question can be put before the
supreme court through the lnstru'
mentality OF such q proceeding as
the one here"

which aroused the neighbors. AS

crushed, however, that she died the
following morning.

today. Accordin- to the story tho

loads of dirt had been dumped on the

too great for the supporting logs and
caused them to sag. The occupants
took no notice of this and retired as
usual. About midnight, apparently
without warning, the roof suddenly
