NOTED SW|NDLER
 MAKES GETAWAY

BERLIN, June GA notorious swindler of a high order of talent, whose speciality was the marriage line, and whose most recent alias was Gen. Count von Passy. has just made his escape from the prison at Heilbronn. His cell window, which looks out on a narrow lane, was found open, the iron bars securing it being filed through and the count gone. It is presumed that he had assistance from outside He found time before leav- ing prison to write a polite note to the crown prosecutor, begging forgive ness for causing this official so much trouble.
 The fact is," wrote the count, that I am obliged to attend to certain very important matters, and must there fore renounce your hospitality"
 Count von Passy" first became prominent five years ago as Major von Schiemugh. An American major or cavalry he called himself. He don ned a uniform which was that of the United States cavalry, plus several bits of sold lace and numerous gild- ed buttons. which were not in the army regulations. He explained aft erwards that ladies liked these gilded additions, and that they enabled him to reach their hearts more speedily. He carried on his adventures for some time with 'impunity, and was said to have netted considerable sums from guileless maidens and from widows.
 Sent 10 Prison.
 Al. of the. widow Of a naval officer, who was on the point Of lending him over 5000 marks as guarantee money when she thought better of it and asked for the assistancA of the police The result was disastrous for the maj or. and sentence of three years i'm prisonment was evidence of the man ner in which the court of justice view cd his enterprise.
 Last August he was liberated from jail, and 1t seems he at once resumed operations in the same fertile field. After several small affairs he net the daughter of a rich citizen of Hellbronn, and introduced himself as Count von Passy. On the strength of forged documents he had become possessed of the fine old castle of Stettenheim, in the neighbophood, and the wealthy young lady, having ambitions and de sires of becoming Countess von~Passy ] of Steltenheim. was induced to fiv with her count to Berlin. where he pII up at one Of the hest hotels of the cauitai rf w9e at this vofa. that the young ladv's fathsr roob action. The count, finding Berlin too hot for him. fled to Frankfort, where Nemesis over took him, and he was removed to l Heilhronn.
 The "count" is desc-ihed as a man of the most engaging personality. with the frank and easy bearing of a soldier. He is at his best when narrating his military experiences in the PhilipDines. which he may have ; seen on the map.

criminal proceedings against certain officers and directors of the Turpen. tine trust, and secured convictions, with jail sentences. Criminal pro eeedings were also brought against directors of the Sugar trust and cf the Beef trust for violating the Sherman law. These cases have not yet come to trial. Other personal In- dictments have been found in con nection with the alleged cotton pool
 The decisions of the supreme court in the Standard Oil and Tobacco trust cases make criminal prosecu- tion an essential element in the en- forcement of the sherman law. The courts construction of the statute is such that no man renders himself liable to indictment and conviction for a merely technical offense which involves no wrongful act
 It is true that criminal prosecu- tions are more difficult to carry on than civil proceedings. Specific acts of specific individuals must be prov ed beyond reasonable doubt; but added difficulty is no argument in favor of nulhfying the criminal pro visions of the antitrust law. That is what MT. Taft's predecessors did from the day the statute took effect.
 The very threat of criminal prose cution will in itself make for a stricter observance of the Sherman act. Men who are ready to take chances in civil proceedings will be very cautious about subjecting them selves to criminal prosecution. When the government is fully committed to the policy of enforcing the Sher man act as a criminal statute it will have fewer occasions for enforcing it at an.-N. Y. World

WILD RUNAWAY ON
 PiEClPiGE FATAL
Pennsylvania Man Instantly Killed and Several 0th-
 CTS Are Injured

YOSEMITE, June 6.--In a stage coach runaway on the steep grade be- tween the big tree grove at Wawona and the floor of the Yosemite Valley, R. $. Licenring of Allentown, Pa, was instantly Killed, three women were seriously hurt and seven other persons were slightly injured.
 The more seriously injured were Miss Martha Weber of Boston, whose arm was broken; Miss Diesendeffer of Boston. who suffered a broken shoul- der. and Mrs. A. J. Eckel of New York who received a deep cut over the eye.
 At one of the most dangerous points on the grade the horses at- tached to the front stage became frightened and manageable. The brakes failed to hold the vehicle and down the winding road
 The med ride took place at a point where a dangerous preciDice was upon one side and a steep bank upon the other. Time after time the stage swung over the brink Of the declivity, but the driver managed to hold the frightened animals to the road until, fearful that the runaway would result in the stage. with the entire load. going over the bank and being crush ed on the rocks hundreds of feet be- low. he took last desperate chance and turned the horses into the inner bank.
 The runaway was stopped, but the stage turned completely over, and sev- erai of the passengers were caught beneath it.

lUMB BER AND .LORiMER.

There are two ways of killing most of the trusts. One. direct and sure. is to take away the monopolis- tic privileges conferred upon them by the tariff. The other, laborious and less certain, is to proceed against them in the courts. The first named remedy might properly be applied by a people in earnest. The last named sometimes looks like "a mere diversion by a people lstless. uncertain or indifferent.
 The Canadian reciprocity agree .ment is exceedingly distas;eful to the Lumber trust It makes a break in the tariff wall under shelter of which most of the trusts were form ed. It remits lumber taxes that amounted last year to s1.326.630 It makes rough lumber and wood free. To this extent reciprocity is tariff revision one schedule at a time. |" which everybody claims to have de sired, and lumber chances to be No. i On the list
 A coincidence worthy of note is the fact that at the very time when the Lumber trust Is rallying all the other trusts to rescue it from the perils Of reciprocity. one of its prin. cipaI agents in the senate, William Lorfmer of Illinois, is confronted by the charge that he was elected by bribery, and, singularly enough, it ,s shown that the Lumber trust collect ! ed the money that was used in his behalf While this might be sup posed to embarrass the embattled trusts which are trying to save lum Der. in fact it does nothing of the kind.

ATTACKING BRYAN IS
 BEGGING THE QUESTION.

We doubt very much if those dem ocrats who are proposing tariff on wool, presumably in order o keep the Ohio shepherds in line for 1912, will gain anything by starting the cry that MT. Bryan is tryins to dictate the party policy. When t comes to the question of free wool or tax on wool, neither Mir. Bryan nor any other man can create any thing new in party doctrine.
 The democratic party doctrine de mands free wool, and mad Mir. Dry an never said a word on the subject, there would still remain plenty of democrats uU protest against the attempt or the ways and means committee ro play politics in the premises. The gradiloquent deiir erauce of a member of the ways and means committee the other day, 10 inc effect that since democrats had followed Bryan to defeat three times. he should now subside, may h0fe some merit as a general proposition. but it does not begin to touch upoA .b. ,e.1 issue involved ID the pur- nose of Chairman Underwood to pIaoe a tax on wool Tn fact, Bryan has nothing to do with the case He did not make or dictate tne demo cratic doctrine of free wool. Nor can Chairman Underwood and Speaker Clark calmly upset party doctrine for any purpose, whether it be to gain strength among the sueep herd CTS in 1912. or to show" Bryan that he is no longer boss The latter is puerile. the former is uangerors to the party as a whole. It IS to be hoped that the real democrats or the house VIII come to Q realization oi the truth before it IS too late. Il would be a great misfortune for the party to staItify itself, and lay itself open to republican attscx simply tc promote Chau1 ClarF.-s presidential boom, or even to court faneied ad vantage for the party as whole.
 Free wool is democratic doctrinei A tav on wool to any extent is re publican doctrine.

A CRIMINAL STATUTE

Attorney General Wickersham's s statement that the government will try to secure criminal convictions of violators of the Sherman antitrust law as a result of the supreme courts decisions in the Standard oil and Tobacco trust cases is further proof Of a new attitude of mind in Washington.
 Until Mir. Taft became president no attempt was made to enforce the Sherman law as a criminal statute. Tn his special message to congress January s1, 1908. MT. Roosevelt de- nounced the advocates of criminal prosecution as defenders of the trusts
 One of the favorite methods of the latter class of assailants is to at- tack the administration for not pro curing the Imprisonment instead of the fine of offenders under these an- thrust laws. The man making this assault is usually either a prominent lawyer or an editor who takes his poiicy from the financiers and his arguments from their attorneys.
 Shortly after Mir. Taft succeeded Mir. Roosevelt the government began

THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA.

It is gratifying 10 the people of Arizona to note how their university has progressed during the past few weeks. The progress has been posi- tive in character, and affords clear demonstration that the institution Is in charge of the right men. What President Wilde and his assistants have accomplished in the short few weeks amounts to 8 promise for the future, and the officers have already earned the confidence and hearty good will of every citizen of the territory.
 As an educational institution the university of Arizona Is going to take its position in the front ranks, So apparent is this to the observer that it can be said that no young man or woman who goes outside of Arizona for a university educa ton can possibly expect to gair anything. The home university of fers every advantage. and it's grad uates will receive recognition in the various fields of industry. such as is accorded the graduates of any oth CT like institution.
 Let all Arizona join in a hearty boost for the university, and lei the boosting take the practical turr of sending Arizona youth to Tue son until all available room is oc cupied. Then the university will b' enlarged. It is going ahead. Prog ress is the watchword, and ere Ions the whole country will be taking notice
