to decide. The case was that of Isaac
Harris and Max Blanck, owners of the
Triangle Waist Company, in whose es-
tablishment lat working girls lost
their lives in fire year ago. Recent
ly Harris and Blanck were tried and
acquitted of charge of manslaughter
in the first and second degrees. The
District Attorney was dissatisfied with
the verdict and asked the Court to
set date for a second trial. Counsel
for the defense opposed the motion on
the ground that the question of second
jeopardy was raised. To this the Dis
trict Attorney replied that there we're
several indictments remaining against
the two men, and that different per-
sons were named in each indictment.
A special jury today listened to the ar.
guments Of counsel on both sides and

of the District of Columbia. The case
has been pending for several years be-
fore Justice Wright, and he mas al
ready imposed sentences of imprison-
ment upon the three men. The Su-
preme Court, however, found errors in
his procedure. but gave the lower
court the right to renew the proceed
ings. The controversy that originally
brought the labor leaders into court
arose out Of labor boycott of the
Bucks Stove and Range Company of
st. Louis. Though this dispute has
been settled, Justice Wright took the
ground that the dignity of the Courts
orders had been violated, and again
cited the labor chiefs to appear and
defend themselves.

THE BUSY Mr.. sANDLgs

Apparently Sandles is not idle a
moment When he has no work to do
he is thinking of new scheme. This
doubtless led to his action recently in
sending to some 1000 farmers of the
state list of questions which he hopes
to have answered in the next few days.
He wishes information which should
prove valuable to the constitutional
convention delegates, and to others.
He wants to know, for instance, what
the farmers think of the good roads

plan to require but three-fourths

tive farmers, scattered all over the
state should be Illuminating as to the
trend of sentiment in the rural dis
tricts.
Sandles is not Satisfied with this
alone, however. He also wants to know
