IRISH SINGERS ARE
 NOT IRISH PLAYERS
Miss Louise Agnese Appear ing at Polls Thinks Her Company Mistaken for Others.

Miss Louise Agnese who with frer Irish colleen singers is appearing at Polls this week, in an act called Echoes of Erin, is very fearful that theatre-goers will confuse her com paDy with the Irish Players now tour ing America who have been very roughly received in some cities. Miss Agnese called at the Farmer office this morning and requested that a statement from her be published. She said:
 'I am very much afraid that people will confuse us with the Irish Players. We are not the Irish Players. They are dramatic actors while we are sing CTS. They have gotten the Irish peo- pie in an uproar wherever they have appeared because they have been pre- senting plays which reflect on Ireland and the Irish people.
 Our work is entirely different from theirs. We are singing Irish songs. We are direct from Dublin and have been a great success wherever we have appeared, but because of a mistake, understand some people think we are the Irish Players who have been getting into trouble in this country and I want to correct that idea

Important Case Before Judge BTaIey Of. State Supreme
 Court
BEING HEARD THIS AFTERNOON
If Writ Is Refused, Lawrence Will Be Considered In
 Civil War
Especial from United Press.>

Lawrence, Mass, Feb. 6.-Interest in the strike of 25,0OO textile mill operatives, today, turned to the habeas corpus hearing held in Bos- ton, this afternoon, when what is ex- pected to be an epoch-making case, fraught with deep import to both capital and labor, will be heard be- fore Justice Braley, of the State Su- preme Court. The proceeding has been brought by Attorney George F. Roewer, counsel for Strike Leaders Joseph J. Ettor and Arturo Giovan- ntti, charged with being accessoriea to the death of Anna Lopizzo, shot during last weeks riot.
 To emphasize the importance of today's hearing, William E. Traut- mann, national organizer for the In dustrial Workers of the World, a col thought, made to a representative of the United Press the following state ment explaining the important situa- ton:
 'It is inconceivabIe that the body of Joseph J. Ettor will not be deliV- cred by writ of habeas corpus before The constitution of the United States, for which our ancestors bled and died that we might have the great human privileges provided for in that docu- ment, specifically says:
 The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus cannot be suspended unless, when in cases or rSDelllOn or invasion, the public safety may re- quire it.
 'If the court shall refuse to issue the writ, it will then be assumed that Lawrence is in a state of rebellion, that this Is no longer a strike but actual civil war.
 eff it is civil war, then the 1,50o uniformed and armed soldiers who are patrolIing the streets of this city, today, are the soldiers of one class while the strikers compose the enemy. We will see in the courts of Boston, today, an action that will determine the real significance of this struggle. As Haywood has stated, it is appar- ent to thinking, Justice loving men. the nation over, that the arrest of E5ttor was to remove from the field of operation a fearless leader whom the mill owners could not bunco.
 The striking textile workers of Lawrence need Ettor'S presence and guidance, but if the court sees fit tG suspend the privilege of habeas cor puS in this amazing case, Ettor, in jail, will serve a tremendous purpose, not only in the interests of the Strik- CTS at Lawrence, but for all the working classes of this country. The case will be celebrated as a con spicuous example of the sway of privilege irrespective of any action the court may take in the matter of the habeaS corpus.

INJUNCTION BY GOVERNMENT FOR THE STEEL TRUST
Department of Justice Charges Officials With De- iberately Destroying Inn portant Documents in Connection with Pending Case.
Especial from United Press.)

Especial from United Press.1
 Washington. Feb. 6-Charging that Vice-President Frank Baackes and other officers of the American Steel & Wire Company, have deliberately destroyed a trunkfuI of documents tending to support the governments case against the steel trust. of which the steel and wire company is sub sidiary, the department of Justice to- day. filed with the New Jersey circuit court a petition for an injunction t0 prevent further destruction of papers important to the governments case.
 The petition alleges that .Baackes helped to destroy correspondeuce which passed between himself and Ed win Jackson supervisor of the steel pool These, the government alleges, show that J. A. Farrell at that time president Of the steel and wire com pany, now at the head of the steel corporation, had cognizance of ths pooling and bidding arrangements Of the trust.
 The text of the petition was given out. today, at the department of jus tice, by Judge J. M. Dickinson, spe- ciaI assistant to the attorney. general in charge Of the steel trust prosecu- ton.
 The petition claims that a vast volume of other incriminatory papers, on which are to be based future crim- inal prosecution of steel trust officials are now in the possession Of the trust and in imminent danger of destruc- tion.
 The destruction of the trunkful Of papers has already done the govern, ment's case against the trust ire parable injunry, according to the pc tition. The papers destroyed had been examined by the grand jury but were returned June g. 1911, to the corpora ton, on the promise of Charles Mac Weigh. general solicitor of the trust, that they would be available to tho government at any time.
 The destruction Of the papers Wa0 discovered on Jan S1, by Henry CoI-' ton. special assistant attorney general associated with Judge Dickinson in the prosecution Of the case.
 On Jan 26, Cotton applied person sly to R. V Lfndbury. counsel for
 trust sr a@4- examination oR tn. papers. Another application was mads on the 18th. The next day, RaynSl c. Boiling, assistant general counsel of the steel trust, wrote Ehat the trunk had probably been returned to the steel and wire company. On the 31st. Boiling said the papers had been destroyed.
 Colton then wrote demanding that no more papers would be destroyed. but while Boiling has made no formal reply, he told Colton. verbally. ac- cording to the petition. ''that he would do what he could'' to prevent it.
