AWARD OF $1,000 AFFIRMED.
Judgment Given J. D. Wilson, a
Carpenter, for Injuries Sustained.

The judgment for 5000 obtained by
John D. Wilson. a carpenter. against the
Thompson-Starrett Company in the Dis
trict Supreme Court last fall was af-
firmed today by the District Court of Ap-
peals in an opinion by Justice Robb.
Wilson was injured while working in
the. Naval Hospital buildings in February
1910, by falling from a ladder which. he
claimed, had been placed SO as to afford
only a dangerous foothold. The defense
claimed it had not placed the ladder in
it's alleged defective condition and
charged that the plaintiff had failed to
prove any negligence on the part of the
defendant.
The Court Of Appeals found sufficient
testimony to have warranted the trial
jury in reaching the conclusion that the
company was negligent.
Attorneys Tucker. Kenyon & Macfar-
land represented the plaintiff. The COM
pany was represented by Attorneys
Sleman & Lerch.

RED CROSS SEEKS FUNDS
FOR USE IN BALKANS
Miss Boardman Makes Plans
for Issuing Appeal After
Election.

Preparations have been made by the
American Red Cross for the issuance of
an appeal for funds for the relief of the
suffering thousands in the Balkan states,
and Miss Mabel Boardman, at the head
of the American Red Cross. will make
the appeal shortly after the election.
Nine. Bakhmeteff, wife of the Russian
ambassador, will aid in the campaign,
which, it is stated, will be nationwide.
The American Red Cross already has
sent 5000 to be used for the relief of the
wounded and suffering soldiers of Greece,
Turkey, Montenegro, Servia and Bulgaria.
The money has been divided equally be-
tween the five nations involved in the
present war and is being expended by
Red Cross agents on the field.
Close Bond Between Countries.
Nine Bakhmeteffs interest in the forth
coming campaign for additional funds to
pay for nursing the wounded and reliev-
ing distress in the battle-swept regions is
due to the fact that the reigning houses
of Russia and Greece are cloely united.
Advices from the theater of war state
that the resources of the nations engaged
in the struggle are wholly inadequate to
care for the wounded. and the need of
additional Red Cross funds, supplies and
nurses is urgent. In Turkey the national
branch of the International Red Cross is
styled the Red Crescent, the cross as an
emblem being abhorrent to the Turks.

DISTRICT WINS ON APPEAL
Opinion Sustains Its Conten-
tion in the Controversy
With Golden & Co.

The District Commissioners were
favored today by the Court of Appeals
in refusing a decision Of the lower
court which had granted an injunction
preventing the electrical department of
trio lamps in front of premises 220
9th street northwest and 918 and 932
Louisiana avenue northwest In an
opinion by Mr.. Justice Van Orsdel, the
Appellate Court set aside the injunc-
ton and dismissed the bill filed by
Golden & Co.
The Commissioners may now compel
the removal of the lamps.
Basis of the Suit
Golden & Co. entered into contracts with
n. T. Redmon, J. A. Whitfield Company
and F. G. Swaine & Son to furnish them
with electric current. The District cleo
trical department questioned the author
ity of the corporation to furnish electric
current 20 others or to use the public
streets or spaces for the purpose of trans
mitting electric current or to string wires
for that purpose. The lower court grant
ed an injunction and the District ap-
pealed.
with the concession that the wires
are occupying public space" says Justice
Van Orsdel suspended over a public
street without permit to complainant or
the owners of the premises, the question
presented is greatly simplified. 1t is lin
tied to whether or not complainant can
lawfully string electric wires over public
space or other premises than its own"
The court proceeds to hold such action
a violation of law and that it is clearly
within the power of the Commissioners
to require the wires to be taken down.

DEADLOCK NOT BROKEN
BY Mr.. UTTER'S DEATH
Choice of President by the
House Requires Majority
of States.

Although it is commonly supposed that
the death of Representative George Her
bert Utter, republican, of Rhode Island
would break the deadlock existing in the
House of Representatives If the presi-
Dental vote should be thrown into the
House, such is not the case. Representa-
tive Utter's death yesterday leaves only
Representative O'Shaughnessy. democrat.
to Rhode Island, and makes Rhode Island
democratic as far as the vote for Presi-
dent would count. However Rhode Is
lands shift from the evenly divided col
umn to the democratic side gives the
democrats % states in the House. the
republicans %, and the states where con-
gressional representation is evenly di-
vided are now Maine Nebraska and New
Mexico.
Majority of All States.
The Constitution declares that when the
election is thrown into the House ina
jority of all the states must decide the
issue. To have this majority of all the
forty-eight states the winning party
would have to control twenty-five states.
The situation is made more favorable to
the democrats by the death Of a stanch
republican on She eve OF electlon, put
the deadlock is not broken.
Representative Utter's political oppo-
nents in his district have been Peter Goe-
let Gerry on the, democratic ticket and
Claude c. Ball. progressive.
He was operated upon in Providence
Hospital here a few weeks ago in the
hope that a dangerous stomach trouble
would be relieved. Shortly after he went
to his home in Rhode Island and was in
poor health to the end. Before his ILL
ness he campaigned for Taft in the west.
Held Several Offices.
Born in Plainfeld. N. j., July 81, 1854

old. He was graduated from Amherst
in 1877. He was an aid on the staff of
Gov. Bourn from May, 1883, to May,
1885; a member of the Rhode Island

- NE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY
FOUR years ago today-Feb ru-
airy q. 7T3S-there came into
the port of New YORK ship from the
Emerald Isle bearing among its human
freight a young man Of % who was
to exert a great influence upon the
for unes OF this continent
The name Of the young man was
William Johnson, to be known TO fame
later on as sir william johnson the
king Of diplomats. natural born sol
der, statesman and master Of men,
In his native county OF Meth, Ire
land wherein he was born about 14l5,
Johnson fell deeply IN love, but when
he told his love TO the black haired,
blue-eyed beauty who had enthralled
his heart he was rudely rejected
Broken-hearted and miserable he
reached the conclusion that life was
not worth living. and IN the depths OF
his despair he even contemplated sui
eide.
But johnson was intended for a
nobler end than that OF filling a sui
cide's grave his uncle. sir Peter W.
rem. owned large tracts Of land In the
Mohawk valley, and, thinking to cure
his nephew OF his love sickness, and at
the same time make him OF some use
IN the world, he sent him to look after
his big estates in New York
The plan worked like a charm The
young man had scarcely planted him

Made a Hit

The Finnish Singing Societies
from this city who attended the
Sangerfest id Duluth Sunday and
Monday, scored a decided success
at the Lyceum Sunday evening.
Ely did not have the largest num-
Der of singers but the applause
given them was an indication of
their popularity with the large
house in attendance. They were
forced to respond to an encore
after having rendered two selec-
lions. None of the other societies
were accorded this honor.
Director Bjorkman had drilled
his choir to a finished rendition
and their music was soft and sweet.
The choir is to be congratulated on
their success. Mr.. Bjorkman was
also elected one of the directors of
the Finnish Sangerfest Association.
