The Centnry's "After Tho War;

One Of the leading features Of The

Attempts

JuNIrrp PRESS LEASED wrprl


Tacoma, Wash, Nov l4.-Assumipc
an air of injured innocence, Attor-
ney c, o, Bates, local attorney for
c. E. Houston one of the convicted
men in the government coal conspir-
acy case, took the stand in federal
court yesterday afternoon to yIndi.
cate himself Of suspicion cast on him
by the statement attributed to sam
uel Milleson, whom other jurors
swore had told them that he was to
get money for swearing to false
affidavit to try to get Judge Cush-
man to give Houston a new trial or
let him off with a money fine In
stead Of imprisonment
Bates said Milleson was brought to
his office by w. D. c. Spike, q COM.
Imercial man. He said Milleson told
him he felt a great injustice had
been done Houston by his conviction,
that he could not sleep, that he de-
sired to do something to ease his con.
science in the matter If he could.
Bates said he asked him how he
came to vote for conviction and he
said the thing that convinced him
finally was the supplemental bid pu.
in by Houston for the Sesnon Goa
company in 1908. Bates informed
him that this bid was put in in 1901
and Milleson said If had known thai
he would never have voted for con.
yIctiOn.
Bates told of Milleson bringing

Why SaIveS Can't Cure Eczema

Since the old-fashloned theory Of cur
Ing eczema through the blood has been
given up by scientists, many different
salycs have been tried for skin diseases
But ii has been found that these salves
only clog the pores and cannot penetrate
to the inner skin below the epidermis
where the eczema germs are lodged.
