a previous applications for pardon a
memorandum directing the preparation
OF formal papers reducing the imprison-
ment part of the sentence from eighteen
months to six months. The counsel for
the applicant learned Of this fact, and in
the habeas corpus proceeding. which was
brought before Judge Jones, one Of the
ant, Mr.. Harlan, was that ! had issued
an order of communication reducing the
Imprisonment from eighteen months to
six months, and that. as a sentence of
six months could not. under the law,
be executed IN the penitentiary to which
Mr.. Harlan had been sentenced, it could
not be executed anywhere and therefore
he must be given his liberty.
las a matter of fact. the instrument
committing Mr. HarIan's sentence from
eighteen months to six months was never
signed and executed. All that was done
was the signing of a memorandum of
direction to the Attorney General to pre-
pare for my signature the formal instru-
ment by which such a commutation could
be effected. The sentence Of eighteen
months is therefore in full force. In
order to prevent the use of such a tech
nicality in the future to avoid the SEN
tence. I shall make no order of commu-
tatiOn. but shall allow the sentence to
stand until after the defendant is inn
prisoned. and then shall exercise such
executive clemency as l may be advised
that the case requires.
THE present application is denied. and
the sentence will be executed.
The Presidents expression in regard
to the punishment to be meted out to
rich offends explained the attitude
adopted recently by the Department of
Justice in pressing for prison sentences
instead of fines for ViOi2tOrS of the
Sherman antitrust law. The Presidents
opinion indicates that the policy will ne
followed now. whenever the facts war

TRADE SCHOOLS NECESSARY
c. H. Winslow Explains Labor's De-
mand on Industrial Education.
Makes Address Before the Federal
schoolmen's Club at Meeting
in Y. NJ. C. A.

Before the Federal Schoefrnen's Club
of the District of Columbia, at its jan
uary meeting. held last night in the
board of directors room at the Y. M.
c. A, Charles H. Winslow presented a
paper on 'Labors demands on industrial
education.
Mr.. Winslow has been for five years a
member of the Massachusetts, commission
in industrial education, which pioneered
the State Investigations. and for the past
year has been a specialist in the Bureau
of Labor, investigating various vocation
and trade schools in the country.
After briefly tracing the history of or
ganized labor's attitude on the trade
school proposition, Mr.. Winslow said that
labor does not want a philanthropic
school nor a cooperative manufacturing
school, but a public school that gives the
boy or the girl an adequate Fundamental
education to the age Of fifteen or sixteen.
Beginning at that time, they should have
the opportunity for such trade or voca-
ton training as would make them most
efficient producers as well as the good
citizens.
Mr.. Wfnslow also commended the Davis
Dolliver bill, which was put on the Con-
gressional calendar for this session. and
which provides for vocational and trade
training with the aid of the Federal gov
ernment. as the most adequate measure
vet proposed.
Following the reading Of the paper q
lively discussion on school schemes main
tained by manufacturers was particle
pated in.
Rear Admiral Charles H. Stockton,
president Of George washington Uni
versity, was admitted to membership at
the meeting.

Tucker Will Caveat Answered.

In answer to the caveat to the will of
the late Daniel Tucker which was filed in
the Orphans Court on January 30 by
Charles F. Tucker, Mrs. Sarah Tucker,
his widow, and Edward Tucker, Mrs
Rose T. Burrier and Mrs. Nettie War
field, three of his surviving children, have
filed petitions in the court.
Edward Tucker in his petition denies
that the paper he presented for probate
is not the last will and testament of his
father, Daniel Tucker. He alleges that
1t was attested to and signed by two
credible witnesses as required by law.
Further he states that neither was the
will written by him nor signed in his
presence but that it was delivered to him
aterward. While admitting that his
father was an uneducated man, he denies
that he did not understand the contents
and purport of the instrument.
Mrs. Sarah Tucker in her petition re-
serves the right to renounce the will and
take her widows portion if the will is
probated. Both she aud the other chill
dren, Mrs. Rose T. Burrier and Mrs.
Nettie Warfield neither deny nor affirm
the allegations contained in the caveat
but submit themselves to the decision of
the court.

P. Mausby and Edward Tucker is repre-
scented by Urner & Urner.

Governor Visits Frederick.

On Saturday last Governor Crothers
visited our city and was one of the speak
ers in the afternoon at the Farmers
Institute. which was held in Junior Hall,
to very large audience. In his address
he urged economy on the farms as well
as in State affairs. He endorsed the plan
to hold the next national meeting in Balti-
more and advised young men to enter
politics.
He said he stood for continued improve
ment of public highways. mo money
the State spends, with the possible excep-
ton of that for public education, comes
back to the people as well as road i'm
provement. 1t increases the value of
property without effort on the part of the
owner. Railroad and steam traffic has
long been improved, but highways have
always been neglected The time has
come when this neglect is at an end, and
good roads, even good dirt roads, are in
sight"
He recommended the cutting down Of
State expenses. Referring to the Mary
land Agricultural College, he said he
wished every farmer in the State would
consider himself part of it. He advo-
Gated public road instruction at the col
lege, and avised his hearers to do all they
could for the State.
|. O. Oswald, of Washington county.
delivered an address on retaining old
apple orchards and w. Oscar Collier, of
Talbot county, talked on increasing farm
crops.
Charles S. Phillips, of Connecticut,
spoke on Dairy Husbandry." He said
MARYLAND farmers made a mistake in not
growing feed for dairy cattle and in select
ing it on the market often went wrong.
He advocated choosing line of breeding
stock and sticking to it. Blended stock,
he said, never brought good results.
Following his remarks he answered a
number Of questions in regard to foods
for dairy cattle
The meeting was the last of two days

ties under the direction of DIR. Richard S.

The Maryland Penitentiary.

The financial showing of the Maryland
prison is excellent. The total income
from the labor of prisoners aid interest
on money in bank was SI59,469. oo. The
expenses were SI24. 3I7.22, leaving net
profit of $35,I5I.S4 which went into the
treasury Of the State. One Of the most
excellent features of this model prison is
the practice of paying the prisoners for
working overtime. So many hours work
is required of each one, and if they work
a longer time they are paid for the excess.
In this way some of them are supporting
or helping to support their families.
Those who are discharged nearly always
have sum of money to carry away with
them. At the close of the last year the
warden had in bank $23,4o3.37 to the
credit of the prisoners. The report of
the directors commends in high terms
John F. Weyler, the warden, who deserves
commentator, for he has made the
Maryland Penitentiary the model penal
institution of the United States.
