WILSON SIGNS
SUNDRY BILL
President o. KS Appropriation
Act Under Protest.
EXECUTIVE GIVES REASON
Declares That Antitrust Law Exemp-
ton Clause Is "Unjustifiable"-
Urgent Necessity Pre-
vents Veto.
EXECUTIVE GIVES REASON

Washington, June 25.-President
Wilson signed the sundry civil appro-
priation bill Monday, with a'statement
declaring that he would have vetoed,
If he could, the provision in it exempt
ing labor unions and farmers organi-
cations from prosecution under a GER
tain $780, 900 fund designated for the
operation of the Sherman antitrust
law. In signing the bill the president
issued the following statement:
Il have signed this bill because /
can do so without in fact lin ting the
opportunity or the power of the de-
partment of justice to prosecute viola
tons of the law by whomsoever COM
mitted.
IF 1 could have separated from the
rest of the bill the item which author
lied the expenditure by the depart
ment Of justice of a special sum Of
100000 for the prosecution of viola
tons Of the antitrust law, l would
have vetoed that item, because it
places upon the expenditure limita-
ton which is in my opinion uniusti-
fable in character and principle. But
could not separate it. / do not IN
derstand that the Limitation was in
tended as either an amendment or an
Interpretation of the antitrust law,
but merely as an expression Of the
opinion Of the congress-a very en-
phatic opinion backed by an over
whelming majority of the house of
rn tot nd 1or
of the senate, but not intended to
touch anything but the expenditure of
d single small additional fund.
Il can assure the country that this
item will neither limit nor in any way
embarrass the actions of the depart
ment of justice. Other appropriations
supply the department with abundant
funds to enforce the law. The law will
be interpreted in the determination of
what the department should do, by in
dependent and ! hope impartial judg
ments as to the true and just meaning
of substantiative statutes of the
United States"
Washington, June 25.-President
Wilson has requested Attorney Gen
eral McReynolds to make a full report
to him on the causes that moved him
to direct postponements of the Diggs-
Caminetti white slave cases and the
trial of two directors of the Western
Fuel company, the basis of the resig-
nation Of United States Attorney Nc
Nab of San Francisco and his charges
against the head Of the department of
justice.
One of Mondays developments was
the receipt by the president of tele-
gram from Clayton Harrington, special
agent of the department of justice in
charge of the federal bureau of investi-
cation at San Francisco, demanding
the removal from office of Attorney
General McReynolds.
Representatives Kahn, Republican,
Of California, and Hinebraugh, Progress
sive, of Illinois, introduced resolutions
in the house, one calling for official
papers in the case, and the other for
an investigation by the judiciary COM

ROTHSCHILDS BACK OF
WATERS-PlERCE OIL CO.
Big Company is Now Being Reorgan-
ICED With Capital of
$1ooOO,oo0.

st. Louis, June 24.-The Standard
Oil company will have a rival in a
short time, it is believed. The Waters
Pierce Oil company is being reorgan-
lied, its capital being increased from
100000 to $10,000,000. The European
banking family of Rothschilds is under
stood to have invested heavily in the
reorganization.
Henry Clay Pierce of ST. Louis,
chairman CT the board of directors of
the old Waters-Pierce company, will
retain a controlling interest in the re-
organized company. The Rothschilds
are heavily interested in an English
corporation which is a strong rival of
the Standard in England.
1t is said that when H. Clay Pierce
last winter bought from the Standard
Oil interest their stock in the Waters
Pierce company, the funds we're fur
nished by tie London house of the
Rothschilds. About that time Pierce
had ordered complete set of the in
voices OF his company made in St.
Louis and sent to him in New York
before he started for London.
He is said to have laid this informa-
ton before London and German bank
ers to induce them to put up money
for the refnancing Of the company
1t is intimated that the property of the
PierGe-Fordyce Oil association will be
taken over by the reorganized Waters
Pierce company, which is to have
new name.

several places the water backed up
