MEN HIGHER UP
 ARE NOT INVOLVED
Attorney General Wickersham Talks of Conviction of the
 Dynamiters.

Washing ton, Dec. 30-Disclaiming any intention to criticise the trial judge who sentenced the dynamiters and combating the reported state ments of labor leaders that labor men were discriminated against and de- claring that he did not believe men higher up were implicated in the crimes of the dynamiters Attorney General Wickersham said today:
 q think the accused were very lucky to get off as lightly as they did I don't mean to criticise the trial judge. He gave them the sen- tence that he thought fitted the crimes for which they were convicted. am sorry that it is necessary to send men to the penitentiary, / but it is necessary and punishment should be meted out sufficiently severe to act as a detriment to crimes by others.
 { "In the evidence submitted to me l see no evidence that there are men higher up involved in the conspiracy. The conviction is a great moral les son. It shows that no one can violate the law with impunity."

Washington, Dec. 30.--C Charging that President Taft will break faith with Congress if he now nominates Col onel Goethals governor of the Canal Zone, Democrats of the Senate assert that they will oppose confirmation on the grounds that Col. Goethass has played fayorites among the officials under him and has shown untriendli- ness towards some of the best engi- neering officers. prominent South ern Democrat voiced objection to Col. Goethals today when he said:
 Throughout the hearings held a year ago at the Canal Zone it was made apparent at every turn that Col. Goethals entertained a keen dis like for Col. Gaillard, who has direc- ton of the great work of the Culeora cut and he does not like William Sibert, who is building the Gatum dam in the harbor improvements at Colon, and that he entertained an unlimited contempt for Maurice H. Thatcher, the head of the civil administration of the zone. He does not like Col. Will liam G.

London, Dec. 30.-After a session that lasted less than an hour and during which no further progress was made towards peace, the Balkan and Turkish plenip ipotentiaries left St. James Palace this afternoon to meet again on Wednesday,. The only important announcement at today's session was that made by Osman Nj zami Pasha, for Turkey, to the effect that Turkey was willing to concede the stand of allies concerning Mace donia. He gave no intimation that Turkey had decided to abandon Adrianople to the allies.
 In this connection Dr. Daneff, the chief Bulgarian delegate. said tonight: We are going to have Adrianople, otherwise the negotiations will be broken off
 Fresh instructions were received by the Turks from their government to-
 
 code, which Rechad Pasha said were not clear today. It was to enable the Turks to cipher and verify the mes sage that the recess was taken.
 The Balkan envoys are watching closely for the first indication that the Turks are purposely delaying mat ters in order to bring the powers in- to controversy. The Servian pleni- potentiaries are particularly suspic- ious Nj Nocakoyitch, the principal Servian delegate said tonight his commission would expire the minute they are convinced that the Turks are pursuing dilatory tactics.

Al though he has only one leg he has proven himself a physical giant and it was all the prisoners and officers could do to handle him.
 Early Sunday night MT. Brunson administered strong drugs to McVay. doses that would have put an ordinary man to sleep for hours, but they had no effect on him. He raved through out the night He has not slept since Friday night and has not eaten one bite of food. He also refuses to drink water.
 Sheriff Edgar Brewster, who would not allow McVay to be taken from
 the county jail until the physicians
 assured him that it would be best for him and was absolutely necessary to
 keep Mcvay from doing himself and
 the prisoners bodily harm.
 Dr.. Jordan says that McVay IS feigning insanity. He made thor

 that he has no appendicitis. There is

WILSON |S URCEO ID AID THE PARTY J. Ham Lewis Tells Him How to Capture Illinois
 Senatorships.
HAS OTHER CALLERS
Cabinet Members Are Mentioned Senator Williams, of Mississippi,
 Among Them.

Princeton. N. J., De-. 30.-The necessity of s:nling Democrats from the states of 1tlinois, Maine, New Hampsh re and the other sta es, where the pa.ty finds itself lacking 2 fe,N votss of majority in the leg islature, in order to insure majority intbe Uni ed States senate to carry out Governor Wilson's pol cies, was forcibly brought to the attention of tie President-'slect at a two-hour conference today with J Hamilton Lewis, of Chicago, who is the primary choice of Illino Democrats for the senate.
 MT. Lewis, as the situation stal:ds at present, needs six Progressive or Republican votes to elect him. He called upon Governor Wilson g.cday to urge him to urge the federal minor 'ty patronage that ordinarily goes to the Republican party to reward any six members of the Illinois legisla- ture. Bull Moose, Republican or So- cialist, who will come over to the Democratic side long enough to cast a vote for J. Hamilton Lew $. There are to be two United States senators to be elected in Illinois, one to syc- ceed Senator Cullom whose term expires, and the other to take tine piece cf tile discredited Senator ,Lori- mer. MI Lewis says that the same six votes won over for him could bet l used to elect h's associate, thus kill ing two birds with one stone.
 Governor Wilson had many other callers of national consequence
 throughout the day. Senator Will Hams, of Mississippi, and Senator
 Chamberla' of Oregon, were with
 him a few moments about noon time.
 Senator Chamberlain talked cabinet
 and suggested .he name of Joseph R.
 Teal and Judge Will R. King, for the i pos. of secretary of the interior. Judge King is the national committee
 man from Oregon and did some hard
 work for Governor Wilson in the
 campaign. Senator Williams also
 suggested names for the cabinet but would not make them public. Gov ernor Wilson decl ned also to men, ,.ion them on the ground that as com- ing from him it would seem to give them added significance.
 Senator Luke Lea, of Tennessee, was with the governor for short time in the afternoon Governor
 Wilson said Senator Lea had merely ! acquainted hm with the situation in l his state.
 Congressman William c. Redfield,
 of Brooklyn, the so-called tariff ex- pert, spen: half an hour with the President-elect and Representative | w. J. Slayden, of Texas, came in
 with Oswald Willard, the newspaper
 publ sher, later in the afternoon. Re-
 garding this visit the governor said: 1 "Mr. Slayden is next to MT. Hay, ahe ranking member of the military affairs committee and he wanted to post me with regard to the recent
 army reorgan xation ms,thods and
 what they signified. He put me in

substitute cheaper foods fol meats
there are going TO be more and more
divorces owing TO comfortless homes
and the race win suffer" said Dr.

more and more desertions Wives

should never run bills and above all,
should never buy furniture on the in
stalment plan"
