DARROW FILES MOTION
 TO DISMISS CHARGES
JUDGE HUTTON APPARENTLY FAVoRS SUCH ACTION BUT
 WILL HEAR ARGUMENTS.

Los Angeles, Aug. 19.--A motion to dismiss the indictment of Clarence s. Darrow on the charge of having bribed Robert F. Bain, 8 McNamara juror, will be argued tomorrow.
 The motion was made today when Darrow appeared in court for the set ting of his trial on the Bain charge. Several grounds were advanced, in- ciuding the facts that there had been nc trial within the 60 days limit aft CT indictment. as provided by statute and the defendant had been once placed in jeopardy on the same charge. It was urged that Darrow lad been tried on the Bain accusa- tion as party of the general con spiraey charges against him and hal been acquitted and that the prosecu tion had no evidence against Darrow which bad not been introduced in the recent trial
 Judge Hutton declared there was scme foundation for the request. but he wished to look further into the authorities cited.
 Judge Hutton declared he would noi preside at a second trial.
 '1t would be inappropriate" hi said. "as have decided opinion al to the guilt or innocence of the de. | fendant. Most of the judges in ths county share my own mental attitude and 1t would probably be necessar, tu call upon the governor to designate some judge to try the case

Washington, Aug. l9.-One battle ship to cost s7,425,OOO. without ar nor or armament and not to exceed io.000000 when completed; eight submarines costing &4.4S0,000, and a fleet of torpedo boats colliers and machine ships, constitute the build ing program for the navy, approved today by the senate and which prob ably will be adopted without change by the house.
 The house and senate conferees met early today and adjusted in few minutes the fight between the two houses over battieships and subma rines The senate yielded to the de- mand of the house for one battleship instead of two. but got in exchange the full fleet of eight submarines in stead of the four proposed by the house.
 The conference report was adopted by the senate without oppositioA. Senator Thornton, democrat, declare the senate conferees should have ad hered to their demand for two bat tleships. The house deferred action on the report.

commerce committee on mo.lon Of Democratic Leader Underwood. That committee had adjourned for the ses- sion and Chairman Underwood sought to have the bill left on the speakers table, but the house immediately yot- ed otherwise. It's gone to bed so far as yhe house is concerned" was MT. Adamson's remark. He added that he had not been able to command a quorum of his committee for the last three weeks.
 There is no disposition on the part of the house leaders so far as they would indicate tonight, to attemps to press a resolution of the character of that commended by the president. There was an informal conference be- tween Representative Sherley of Ken lucky, who talked with the president on the subject, and others who have taken a prominent part in Panama legislation in the house, and the sen timent expressed was that there would be no further legislation, and that if the president vetoed the bill, the whole matter would go over to the December session of congress.

INVESTIGATION OF
 STEAMSHIP OWNERSHIP
coNGRES ESSIONAL INQUIRY WILL TAKE BROAD SCOPE TO SEE
 CURE INFORMATION.

Washington, Aug 19.A compre
 hensiye inquiry into the intcr-rela- | tionship of steamship lines has been 1 instituted by the house committee on merchant marine and fisheries. To nearly five hundred water carriers the committee today mailed a schedule of 42 inquiries designed to get etsdata re garding ownership, agreements, con ferences or the many other methods of control or alliance, the relation of the steamship lines to railroads and other transportation agencies. and the pre- vaifing practices with reference to fixing rates and treatment of ship pers. The inquiries are based upon resolution recently passed by the house directing the investigation.
 Representative Alexander Of Mis- souri, chairman of the committee, etn- phasized today that the committee wished the information as basis for constructive legislation, and not to have criminal or legal action brought against the carriers.
 "The committee" he said. ''begins this investigation without any pre- conceived ideas We want the facts on a broad scale for all sections Of the country. They will show tlhe gen eral prevalence of absence of the con ditions referred to in the revolution" !"

TEDDY ON THE TAFT
 TRUST PROSECUTIONS
SAYS WICkERSHAM'S SUITS HAVE PLAYED DIRECTLY INFO THE
 HANDS OF THE TRUSTS.

oyster Bay, N. r., Aug. 19.-"The more suits against the trusts that are brought to successful conclusion the way Mir Wickersham brought the Standard Oil and American Tobacco cases to 6 conclusion, the better it will be for trusts," said Colonel Roosevelt tonight. "If MT. Wicker sham will conduct to a similar con clusion a few more suits of the same kind, he will confer benefits upon the trusts such as all of them put togeth- CT cannot confer upon themselves"
 t~Vionel Roosevelt made this state ment when he was told that Attorney General Wickersham had been quoted as saying that the Taft administra- ton had done more to break up the trusts and enforce the sherman anti trust law than had been done by the
 .oseyelt administration.
 The only method of dealing with the trusts which was more absurd than the present administration, he said. was that recommended by Stan ley congressional committed The proper way to meet the question, he continued, was outlined in the pro- gressive platform which advocates an interstate industrial commission 10 regulate corporations.
