MORE DELAY WON
BY BEEF BARONS
Trust Trials Are Postponed I'm
til Wednesday.
HABEAS CORPUS WRIT VOID
Circuit Court Grants Leave to File an
Appeal to the Supreme Tribunal
Government Triumphs
Through Decision.

Chicago, Nov 20-CounseI for the
Chicago packers indicted under the
Sherman antitrust act succeeded in
getting a delay until next Wednesday
in the criminal trial, which was SEIZED
uled to begin today in the United
States district court.
The delay was granted by Judge G.
G. KOhlsaat in the United States cir
cult court after the defendants had
been defeated in efforts to make eff
fective writ of habeas corpus An
appeal to the United States Supreme
court was allowed by Judge Kohlsaat
Will Delay Trial.
After deciding to quash the writ of
habeas corpus and ordering the de-
PENDANTS remanded to their sureties,
Judge Kohlsaat agreed to delay for
NAL entry Of his decision and order
until Wednesday morning. This, it is
asserted, will postpone the opening
of the criminal trial of the packers
long enough to permit the indicted
men to get their appeal to the United
States Supreme court, before they au-
tomatically accept jurisdiction in the
district court by appearing at the trial
there
James Sheean of special counsel for
the government, made sharp objection
to this delay.
Ruling on Corpus Writ.
The courts decision on the habeas
corpus writ follows:
From a reading Of cases in which
the federal habeas corpus act has been
before the Supreme court, it becomes
apparent that as a rule the granting
Of writ in cases in which the Ques-
tons herein involved have been pre-
scented, has not been favored by that
court. The rule seems to be clear that
only in certain cases, where excep-
tional circumstances arise, will the
court separate the question involved
in the habeaS corpus proceeding from
the trial Of the case.
1T appears the petitioners rely up
on the allegations as to the magnitude
and volume Of the business, which
would entail great loss should the SUI
preme court hold the proceedings IN
constitutional after the trial is had.
Cannot Take Jurisdiction.
1T can hardly be claimed that the
possibility OF loss growing out Of the
trial would constitute special circUm-
stances as contemplated in the de
cision of the court.
1T therefore follows that this court
cannot lake jurisdiction Of the haDeas
corpus proceedings here under the cir
cumstances now presented. Moreover,
dit appears that the district court has
full Jurisdiction Of that matter and
has passed upon that question, and to
take the case at this time would prac-
tically amount to an attempt to review
the decision Of that court.
For these reasons the motion to
quash and vacate the order granting
the writ and dismiss the petition must
be granted"
The formal entering Of the order dis.
missing the writ and remanding the
defendant packers, together with the
entering Of the appeal, is all that re
mains for the circuit court.

their hair through thoughtlessness OF
ignorance of certain facts. They use
curling irons over heated, or to excess,
which destoys the natural oil of the
hair, causing it to split, break, and
their hair often enough or too often.
They use soap or preparations which
contain ingredients positively harm
full to the scalp and hair.
AS a result of such treatment,

loses color. falls out, and badness
commences, unless proper and prompt
precautions are taken in time. Then

bring about unhealthy scalp and hair
conditions.

DENVER COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUGUST II 1911

Among the poorer classes in Eng
land the bar-room is quite as much
the woman's club as it is the mans
The light, the warmth, and the
free and friendly gossip of these
places make them attractive, too,
and [ can understand that the peo-
pie in these densely populated
quarters of the city many of them
living in one or two crowded little
rooms. should be drawn to these
places by the desired for a little
human comfort and social inter
course.
In this respect the bar-rooms in
poorer parts of London are like
the beer halls that one meets on the
Continent. There is, however this
that the effect of drink
upon the people of England seems
to be more destructive than it is
in the case of the people on the
Continent. 1t is not that the Eng
lish people as a whole consume
more Intoxicating drink than the
people elsewhere, because the sta.
tistics show that Denmark leads
the rest of Europe in the amount
of spirits, just as Belgium leads in
the amount of beer consumed per

Several times during my stay IN
London | observed, standing on
the corner in one of the most
crowded parts of the city, young
woman selling papers. There are
a good many women, young and
old. who sell papers in London,
but any one could see at glance
that this girl was different. There
was something in her voice and
manner which impressed me, be-
cause it seemed to be at once tim
id. ingratiating, and little inso-
lent. if that is not too strong a
word. This young woman was
as [ soon learned, a sutfragette,
and she was selling newspapers-
"Votes for women"
This was my first meeting with
the women insurgents of England.
A day or two later, however, hap
pened to fall in with number OF
these Suffragette newspaper sellers
One of them, in lively and anus
ing fashion, was relating the story
of the mornings happenings. L
could not help hearing what shesaid
and soon became very much inter-
ested in the conversation. In fact
7 soon found myself so entertained
by the bright and witty accounts
these young women gave OF their
adventures that it was not long be-
fore I began to enter with them
into the spirit of their crusade and
to realize for the first time IN my
life what a glorious and existing
thing it was to be a Suffragette,
and, [ might add, what a lot OF fun
these young women were having
out of it.
IF had not occurred to me, when
T set ont from America to make
the acquaintance of the man far
tbest down, that L should find my
self in any way concerned with the
woman problem. l had not been
in London more than few days,
however, before I discovered that
the woman who is at the oottoin
in London life is just as interest
ING as the man in the same level OF
life, and perhaps more deserving
object of study and observation
In a certain way all that L saw
of the condition of women at the
bottom connected itself in my
mind with the agitation that is
going on with regard to woman al
the top.
Except in England, the womens
movement has not, 50 far as L was
able to learn, penetrated to any

Samuel j. Battle, the first Ne
gro to be appointed a member of

is now on duty in uniform. After

day. Although it was at first CIV
en- out that Police Officer Battle

avenue to the North River, the
heads of the department changed
