Ohio.

Governor Stubbs made a good guess
on the Ohio presidential primary re-
suit When he returned from his trip
to the Buckeye state nearly two
months ago newspaper boys asked him
about the situation back there on pres
ident He replied that Taft was sure
to carry the First and Second congress
sional districts and reasonably sure TO
carry two more districts. but that he
would not get to exceed ten delegates.
Taft carried just four districts ane
delegate each from two other districts,
getting ten in all. The governor had
a good line on the situation and his
estimate was more in the nature of a
prophecy than guess
The governor spent last week IN
Ohio campaigning for the colonel. He
will spend the first of this week in
New Jersey on the same mission. ex-

His Freedom.

Atlanta, Ca, May 22.-Charles w.
Morse. the ice king who was reported
to be penniless and his wife in want
after he was sent 20 the federal prison
for misuse of funds in one of his nu-
merous banks, paid his attorneys
100000 for securing his release from
the Atlanta federal prison. Felter,
Anderson, RoundtIee & Wilson of At
Ianta represented Morse and his con-
tract with them called for fee of
100000 if they succeeded in showing
him a way to freedom.
Through the efforts of these attor-
neys President Taft was induced to
free Morse, it being represented that
the ex-banker was at the point of
death. Soon after Morse was released
he paid more than half of the 100000
and the remainder will soon be due.
Attorney Fielder, who handled the
case, said:

Washington, May 22.-W. P. Boland,
of the Marion Coal. company, Scranton,
author of the charges which have
tfreate ned the impeachment of Judge
commerce today told his story to the
house judiciary committee. Boland de-
c1ared he had become convinced that
the coal railroads in Pennsylvania,
were using Judge Archibald.
''It was not the exception but the
rule that Judge Archibald was willing
to serve the railroad he said.
The witness related the history of
his fight against the alleged discrim-
nations by the railroads and asserted
that on one occasion, E. E. LOOMS,
vice president of the Lackawanna,
said to him:
'tYou have the deviPs nerve to at
tempt to sell coal along our line
BOland referred to the case in which
the Marion Coal company was de-
PENDANT in 1908 in Judge Archibald
court. He said that at about this time
he (Boland) made complaint to the
interstate commerce comm ission
against the discrimination by the rail-
roads and that imm ediately things
began to move" in the case against
him. ss4

Coal company to the railroads. He
declared Judge. Archibald had Presi-
dent Truesdale and Vice President

that Truesdalea declared at this con-
ference: What is this judge to do in
this case? Is this in the nature of a
hold-up? 1 refuse to have anything
to do with it -
Boland said he asked Watson why
he was asking <the railroad $160,OOo
for the property when his company
was willing to sell for 100000.
"Well, we have to settle With Judge
Archibald" Watson was credited with
saying.
''I said I thought the the judge was
helping you through friendship" con-
tinued Boland.

SUES THE RAILROADS. 4
John Marshall Wants Limited Liability
Rate Abolished.

John Marshall, attorney for the utili-
ties commission, has brought suit be-
fore the commission to annul the order
of the old board of railroad commits
sioners made some eleven years age
providing for a certain restricted liza
bilitv on the part of the railroads fol-
loss of freight shipments. BY the terms
of this order the roads could charge
two rates on shipments, the higher
rate not limiting the liability, while the
lower rate applied where the liability
was limited. For instance, a patron
shipped a load of horses worth $500 per
head. The rate he paid allowed the
railroads to limit their liability in case
of loss of stock to 800 per head Alsc
household goods, really valued at SUI
per hundred weight. yet the railroads
under this order, could limit liability
TO $40 per hundred weight
The suit is brought against all the
roads in the state and calls upon them
to make answer to the complaint
against the old order and asks the
Commission to set hearing for the
suit for the annulment of the order.

HE CHOSE BULLETS.
Utah Murderer Is Executed by Rifle
squad.

Salt Lake City, May 22.-Five rifle
men concealed behind a black curtain
sent steel-nosed bullets into the heart
of a blindfolded man as he sat in a
wooden chair at the state prison this
morning Julius Sirmay, a murderer,
was the target. He had selected death
by shooting in preference to the gal
lows after his conviction of the muir
der of Thomas KarTick, a 14-year-old
school boy, whom he had shot and
fatally wounded in the course of a
daylight burglary.
Until a few hours before the execu-
ton he maintained that fellow bur-
glar was with him in the Karrack
home and had killed the lad. Last
night he confessed it was he who shot
the boy.
Sirmay was a Hungarian about "a
wears old. He was blindfolded before
he left his cell on his way to be shot.
