Philadelphia, Aug. 16.-The federal
government attacked the so-called
moving picture trust in a civil suit
filed here today for the dissolution
of the Motion Picture Patents COM
pany and the General Film company.
Ten moving picture film concerns are
accused of combining to monopolize
the business, even to the extent Of
increasing or decreasing the number
of motion picture theatres in which
they have no proprietary interest.
The following corporations and in
dfviduals, who are officers or d.
rectors, are named defendants;

Each of the defendants is alleged to
have overstepped the bounds Of the
lawful monopoly granted by the pa
tents. and the petition asks that several
complicated interIocking license re-
strictions. tying patents together, be
ordered cancelled. The government
charges that unreasonab BILE and op-
pressive restraints and conditions have
been arbitrarily imposes on the man

machines. depriving the public of the
advantages of competition, especial

ROOSEVELT IS
COLOSSAL BLUFF
SAYS WOMAN
MRS. GERTRUDE ATHERToN
TAKES STUMP IN CALIFORNIA
FOR WILSON, WHO SHE SAYS
IS A MAN WHO ALWAYS EXER-
cIsES SELF CONTROL AND
NEVER ACTS LIKE A BULL
MOOSE.
by Associated Press.

San Francisco, Aug. 16.-Mrs. Ger
trude Atherton, the California novelist,
took the stump" here last night to
tell California's newly enfranchised
women why, in her opinion, they
should vote for Woodrow Wilson.
Beginning with the announcement
that Il cannot see much difference in
the personal platforms Of Wilson and
Roosevelt" Mrs Atherson delivered an
epigrammatic attack upon Col. Roose-
welt and like defense of Gov. Will
son. She said in part:
Seventy years ago Charlotte Bronte
invented Roosevelt in the character of
Rochester. Since that time women
have loved Rochester, the man who
was 100 per cent male. I confess that
have a speaking affection for the
type. Rochester was a colossal buffer
the self sufficient man. Roosevelt is
of that sort.
Woodrow Wilson is a man who al
ways exercises self-control. He will,
never be found acting like bull moose.
1t will never be possible to call Wood
row Wilson, Woody as Roosevelt is
called Teddy
Recently Roosevelt burst out for
suffrage for women. Wilson is op-
posed to woman suffrage and IS too
honest to say that he is for It He
has a few old fashioned preju dices
But the best way to correct them is
to vote for Wilson and convince him
by that means that suffrage for wo-
men is a good thing"
Mrs. Atherton said that Socialism
was becoming fashionable" in New
York.

Washington, Aug. 16.-In a pictures
que and spontaneous outburst during
the debate on the presidential wool
tariff veto Senator LaFollette today
attacked the new progressive party,
and swore anew his allegiance to
progressive republicanism. The or
iginaI insurgent," quivering with emo
ton, poured out a flood of impassion-
ed oratory that kept the floor and
galleries rapt and silent. He declar-
ed that mo obstacle dragged across
the path Of the progressive movement
in the republican party can now stop
its advance"
Referring to Roosevelt he said the
day he was made president there were
149 trusts and combinations in ths
United States. When he turned the
government over to Taft there were
10000 plants in combination, with a
jump in capitalization from three bill
lions to thirty one billions, seventy
percent Of which was water. He said
there had been no dimunition in the
present administration.

Nashville, Aug. 16.-Mrs. J. G. Jones,
who killed Mrs. Alma Cave, failed 10
make her bond Of ten thousand dollars
and remains in Jail. She refuses to
make any statement regarding the

mother, Mrs. Sophia Leinhos.
Since the tragedy the mother has
been prostrated and has made NJ
statement. The accepted idea that
jealousy played a part in the shooting
has led to an examination of the di-
vorce bill fled by Mrs. Jones against
her husband, ]. G. Jones. The bill
made no charge of infdelity, the al
legations being drunkenness, failure to
provide and that he had caused his
wife great suffering by falsely charg-
ing her with infideIity. This bill was
filed October Z, 1911, but withdrawn
and the suit dismissed before the end
of the month.

FUTILE ATTEMPT TO
PREVENT CANAL LEGISLATION
BY Associated Press.

Washington, Aug. ia futile at
tempt to prevent Panama canal legis-
lation at this session of congress was
made today by Senator Brandegee
when he presented the conference re-
port of the tariff.
Senator Brandegee urged that the
report be rejected, the measure al
lowed to go over for the session and
a committee from the house and SEN
ate appointed to thresh out the prob
lens involved. He attacked the bill
as 1t was finally framed.
'I believe the bill nov Is a viola
ton Of our treaty obligations with
Great Britain. and cannot vote for
it," he said. Il ask the senate to re-
ject this report and let the bill go
over until next session when we can
give it careful mature deliberation."
Senator Brandegee condemned the
provision to exclude railroad owned
ships. He said it would prevent ships
owned by railroads now under the
jurisdiction of the interstate commerce
commission from using the canal and
would allow ships owned by foreign
railroads to pass through.
Senators Brandegee and Root con-
demned the Reed amendment to forbid
use of the canal to vessels, "owned,
operated or controlled by Illegal mo-
nopolies." They asserted 1t would be
practically impossible to administer
that clause.
Senator Reed, defending the provt-
sion, declared it provided that any
competent federal court should decide
whether a vessel was owned by a
violator of the anti trust law.
The conference report on the Pan
anna canal bill containing the provi-
sions against trust owned" ships and
granting free tolls to certain Ameri-
can vessels was adopted by the SEN
ate today 40 to 1S, after the fight
against 1t led by Senator Brandegee,
who is chairman of the Panama ca
nal committee.
Senator Brandegee proposed a
temporary resolution, giving the presi-
dent power to organize the canal force,
to publish maximum canal tolls OF
$1.25 per net ton, arrange for wire
less telegraph installation and make
provision for the supply and repair Of
ships.
Senator Brandegee conceded that
he could not offer the resolution as
a substitute for the conference re-
port; but urged that the conference
report and the accompanying canal
bill be voted down.
II believe it would be a public ca
lamity to have this bin passed" he
said.
Senator Oliver of Pennsylvania in
troduced a newspaper editorial in
which he said he expressed his views
of the Panama canal bill and brough;
bitter reply from Senator Williams
who declared the article was "scur-
rilIous. insulting, offensive, and vitu-
perative" and that it made members
of the house and senate appear as
| asses, demagogues, peddlers and dis
| honest men.
THAT article expresses my opinion
| of this bill" retorted Senator Oliver
and I withdraw nothing have
said"
