 Followed WANTED TO "BUTTON
 UP" THE JUDGE Testimony Interspersed With yigor- Ous Denunciations of Archibald
 Despite the Cautions of Senator Bacon

Washington. December William r. Roland of Scranton. Pa, the man charged by Judge Robert " Archibald of the commerce court with having or ganized conspiracy that resulted in Judge Arehbald's impeachment and his present trial before the senate, ad- mitted on the witness stand in tba Senate today that he had suggestel the various steps in which Judge Archibald was connected with the dea; for KatSdid eulm dump in order Ia ''eheek up Judge Archibald"
 'f wanted 10 button up Judge Arcn. bald he said. shaking his finger at the accused buist who sat in front of him. q wanted 10 show he was tha kind of a man he isp
 These admissions made under searching questions by Judge Arch. bald's attorney, A. <. Worthington. were iaterspersed with the vigorous denunciation of Judge Archibald by Mir. Roland as a corrupt judge" ana charges that Judge Archibald had been working for the railroads
 Does Not Heed Cautions
 Repeated demands were made by Judge Arehbald's attorney that Mir Bo- land be required 10 answer questions directly, but notwithstanding cautions from President Bacon he embodied in his replies sweeping charges against Judge Archibald and frank admissions that he had set out to get hold of everything he could that would help in showing up" Judge Arehbald and a4a held that Judge Archibald was being used by the railroads
 The testimony of William F. Roland. who followed his brother. C. G Roland on the stand. centered chiefly about the case of the Marion Coal company. where they were chief owners. Mr Roland declared ho believed Judge Archibald had used hls influence to at tempt 10 bring about a settlement Of a cAse oetweea .ha Marioa Goal conn pany and inc Laekawanna railroad.
 lie said he had told Attorney Gen. era Wickersham and members of tho interstate commerce commission he be- lieyed Judge ArehDnld had overruled the demurrer of the Marion Coal com- pany because he CBoland) had refused to discount Judge Archbald's note. When pressed for evidence 10 prove this. Mr Roland said he had been told repeatedly by F. j. Williams. the as- sociate of Judge Archibald in coal land operations. that, fl would have been better for him if he mad discounted the note.
 Judge Archibald never did a thing To me nntil the railroads began to use him. shouted MT. Roland in tho course of one of his answers to ques- tons by Mr Worthington. He was accountable for all our troubles over the appeal case"
 "Where did you get your informa lion about Judge Archbaldg' asked Mr Worthington.

Incidentally, Mitchell is charged with attempted highway robbery and as- sault with intent to kill Jules Stiffel. a business man of this city. who was held up last night. Stiffei opened fire when two men approached him with the command of hands up" and in the exchange of shots stiffel was slightly wounded. the would-be robbers taking to their heels. Stiffel identified Mitchell as one of the men today Der gen is said to have been his compan- ion.
 Holloway is well known in the south and southwest. He first gained mo- toriety when he shot and killed Ed ward Starr, a bank robber. at Tulsa, okla, in 1908. He was acquitted. Next he engaged in a fight with two of his companions in Oklahoma City. All were wounded. Holloway escaped from a hospital and came to Memphis. where he opened a hotel, but was compelled to leave the city when his establish ment was closed after raid. Next he was arrested at Claremore. okla, in 1910 for the robbery of bank al Harold, Tex. and taken to Fort Worth for trial.

Discussion Preeipitated

An interesting discussion was piecip:-
 ated in tie conference when samuel C. Douglas of Nashville moved the appoint ment of a committee 10 consider the fol- lowing resolution:
 Resolved. That we favor the passage by Congress of ship subsidy Chat will have the effect of creating merchant marine"
 The motion was vigorously supported by ]. C. Weatherly of Brunswick. Ga. chamber of commerce. Frank r. Glass of Birmingham strongly opposed any con sideration of such ship subsidy in ad- vance of the perfeeting of q permanent organization and the conference voted to await the report of Mr. Finley's eommlt- tee.
 Director John Barrett of the Pan-Amer- ican bureau opened the conference with a plea that the United States should pre- pare for the new commercial era to fol- low the opening of the Panama canal He pointed out the trade possibilities be- tween the southern states and the Latiu- American countries bordering the Pacific coast Of south and Central America. He declared that already the merchants of Europe were preparing to develop this trade and that the business men of this country must awake 10 the situation if they desired to reap the benefits O. the opening ol the canal He thought Presi- dent Taft had make a mistake in fixing the canal tolls so high. Just enough 10 pay operating expenses should be charged, he said, if the establishment of the steamship lines necessary 10 the de- yelopment of Pan-American trade was to be encouraged. Mr. Barrett said that the opening of the canal would mean as much to Pacific south and Central America the transcontlnental railroad meant io California Washington and Oregon near lv 5O years ago

No Terms, Says T. K.

Colonel Roosevelt in his speech made it plain that the programme of the pro gressive party does not contemplate maL. ing terms that the republican party as q whole would dictate.
 He said in effect that the new party had come to stay and expected eventually to attract to it's banner the progressives who still gave allegiance 10 the republican ani democratic organizations.
 As to leadership Colonel Roosevelt said the events Of the next year or two could be trusted to develop the best men who must be chosen without reference to their own desires. but solely with regard 10 the needs of the people. Progressives in the many legislatures. and in Congress were urged to get together and push progressive legislation. but they were

Urged War With Seryia

The Vienna correspondent of the Daily Telegraph says General Non Hoetzen- dorffs differences with the late Count Non Aerenthal Austro-IIungarian minis ter of foreign affairs, arose during the crisis over the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. He urged war at that time with Servia maintaining that otherWise Servias enmity would crop up again and later at the commencement of the Turco- Italian war he wished to invade Italy
 The correspondent says he learns that in the dispute with Servia, the Austrian government will first take up the con snlar question before the ambassadorlal conference meets. and as soon as the new Servian minister. M. Jovanovich, reaches Vienna, other subjects will be broached among them it is reported, demand for a reduction in the present strength of the Servian army on the ground that such a big army is no longer needed, as the oppressed SlaVs in Turkey now have been freed and its maintenance in its existing strength would be a con- tinual menace to Austria.

 General Von Hoetzendorff. the new Austrian chief of staff, is credited with being the sworn enemy of Servia and to have been for long time possessed of the conviction that nothing but the sword can settle the differences between Austria and Servia.

Men Were Asleep

Holloway, Brantley Mitchell, Tex Wallace, alias John Mccoy and Mrs. Wallace were arrested when squad of police and detectives swooped down on the Wallace residence this morning. The men were asleep when the officers gained entrance to the dwelling and were handcuffed before they were sufficiently awake to offer resistance. Mrs. Wallace, who admitted the officers, mistaking the only one in sight for Mitchell. was seized and sileneed before .she could give an alarm. but in her struggles she over- tuned some furniture, which awak- ened Bergen. Emerging from a win Bergen, clad in paiamas, exchanged shots with one of the detectives, then leaped to the ground distance of 9 feet, and escaped. He was killed when he returned later for his clothing and opened fire on the detectives standing guard at the house.
 According to Chief Detective Roper. Holloway has confessed that the plan was to rescue Deggs No1en while a NH"HSc N"S D'iAts ii"'c run ViiN tiilii to another at Memphis. When the of ficers in charge of Nolen went by an- other route the plans fell through, and yesterday the local police were 'tipped'' to the presence of Holloway. Detective Nolen declares he knew nothing of Holloway being in Memphis or his plans. Charges to the contrary were made at an informal hearing before Mayor Crump this afternoon.

T. K. Attacks Court


 a love feast
 T. k. Attacks Court
 Colonel Roosevelt's attack on the Idaho court decision came in the way of com ment on the action of that court in citing the editor of the Capital-News of Boise for contempt by the paper criticsing the courts decision. The strongest thing the paper printed was Colonel Roosevelts own telegram denouncing the decision, de- clared the colonel, who advocated that the progressive party fight the case for the defendant editor and make good any fine that might be assessed against him.
 Although the Idaho law makes no pro- vision for the election of presidential electors, the colonel pointed out, the su preme court of that state permitted re- publican and democratic electors to be put on the ticket by construing q pro- vision which provided for the election of constables and other officers to include presidential electors, but held that the progressive ticket could not be nominated by petition because the highest number of votes enumerated as necessary to nom mate by petition was 300 for the election of state officials" The Idaho court held | electors not to the state officials, not withstanding the supreme cqSrt of the Uplted States had hcld thon not 10 Do national officers, he said. He referred to the decision as outrageous
 Chan pions Perkins Colonel Roosevelt championed Mir Per- kins heartily. The colonel declared MT Perkins was one of the men he was proud 10 have as a fellow worker in the new party. Mr Perkins, in an address resented the insnuation that he was q recent convert to the movement. He had fought for social and industrial reform through his connection with various con- panies, for many years, he said. The reason why l am with you" he concud- ed lis that this is the first national party to take up the practical questions which confront this country These are the prin- ciples which must be adopted If this coun- try would endure"
 The educational plan read by Miss Addams provides for six subdivisions Of the general organization, as Follows:
 Education and publicity. legislative ref erence, social and industrial justice. con servation, cost of living, corporation con- trol and popular government national committee and executive staff and six bureaus 10 spread the propaganda are provided for.
 The sessions were extremely demon stratiVe. Colonel RooseVelts criticisms of the Idaho court and Mr. Perkins speech were applauded for several min utes each by the delegates.
 Mrs Maude Howe Elliott. daughter of the late Julia Ward Howe. author of The Battle Hymn of the Republic" told of a vision her mother had short time before death in which she saw men and women enjoying equal rights. She was heartily cheered when she said:
 ..I firmly believe that my mother saw the coming of the new progressive party When Mrs. Elliott ceased speaking the audience rose and sang the famous hymn.
