He FOUGHT
. FOR RIGHTS

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-As-
sociate Justice John Marshall Har-
, Ian of the supreme court, died at
his home here at S:15 this morn
e. ing. Death was caused by an
acute attack of bronchitis, which
began with a cold last Monday.
Owing to his extreme age, rs, but
slight hope was held out for his
recovery, and the members of his
family were at the bedside when
he died.
Was "Dissenting" Member
Justice Harlan was constantly
attended through his illness by
Misses Laura and Ruth Harlan,
Interstate Commerce Commission
er James N. Harlan and John M.
. Harlan of Chicago, his daughters
and sons.
One of the most vigorous and
preme court, John Marshall Har-
Ian, was known of late years as
the dissenting member. In its
majority membership the supreme
court has been notoriously reac-
tionary and ultra-conservative.
With this domination by property
Justice Harlan had no sympathy.
With but one exception his
term on the supreme bench was
the longest in the history of the
United States-34 years. He re-
Gently won fame by opposing the
reading of the word reasonable"
into the Sherman antitrust law,
holding out vigorously, though in
effectually, against the rest of the
bench.
His death will make it neces-
sary for President Taft to make
fifth appointment to the supreme
court. This will make the major
ity on that tribunal of President
Taft's selection.
Was Plebian In Ways
Justice Harlan was democratic
and much liked for his genial and
plebian habits. While other JUS
tices rode in their carriages and
maintained their footmen it was
the delight Of Justice Harlan to
find place on the front platform
of a street car and while putting
and mssticating a scent stogie, to
find out the opinions of the motor
man or other casual fellow pas
senger.
Justice Harlan owed his ap-
pointment on the supreme court to

The new walk, the peacock

having an extra yard around the

having entered the vestry and taken
them. The police were notified and
Immediately went to work. with the

Cause of Names Destruction Obliter-
ated by Time and Water.

Tampa. Fla. June 26.-''The secret
of the destruction of the battleship
Maine will never be known, said Gen
w. H. BiXby, chief of engineers in

Maine, upon his arrival here yester-
day from Havana. The destruction of
the vessel was such. says General Blk

great that it viii be impossible to tell
whether the ship was blown up from
force within or without. The greatest
force. however, was from the inside.
Indicating that the forward magazine
had exploded. Whether this was from
sympathetic explosion or caused Dy
a torpedo from the outside may forever
remain a mystery.
General Bixby says that unless tile
fragment of a torpedo is found there
is no way OF connecting some outside
agency with the blowing up of the
vessel.

remains" General Bixby said "ThC
