AT ODDS OVER JUDGES
Senate Lawyers Not Agreed
as to LegisIating Them
Out of Office.

That the provision in the deficiency APP
preparation bill passed by the House and
now pending before the Senate which
abolishes five judgeships of the United
States circuit courts, in conformity with
the abolition Of the United States Com
merce Court will be retained in the bill
by the Senate was the opinion expressed
today by senators who are authorities
upon constitutional law.
The deficiency bill Is now in the hands
of the Senate committee on approprla-
tons, and it is expected that the COM
mittee will not meet to pass upon the
bill until next week.
There is sure to be a fight in the Sen
ate over the provision abollshlnS the
iudgeships however, owing to the tact
that the lawyers of the Senate are not
all in accord as to the constitutionallty
of the proposed action Senator Suther-
land of Utah is one of those who have
argued that Congress has no right under
the Constitution to do away with these
judgeships.
The senators who believe that Congress
has this right contend that the only fed
eral court which could not be leg slated
out of existence by Congress is the Su-
preme Court of the United States which
is provided for in the Constitution Itself.
The other courts have all been created
by legislation by Congress. Having apol-
ished the Commerce Court, there Is no
reason, they contend, why they should
not put the judges of this court out of
office The life of the judgeshlps does
not extend beyond the life of the court,
they hold.

women and three men are under arrest,
including Yanko Terzich Of Denver. a

Western Federation of Miners.
Attempts to interfere with non-fed-
Grafton men going to work and disturbing
the peace We're charged against the
women and two of the men. Terzich was
locked up after a wordy clash with an Of
Ger and probably will be released
The strikers and the women were noisy
and apparently in an ugly mood. Hun
dreds of them marched into Calumet
from the keweenaW county mines to the
north and each appearance of soldiers
and deputies brought out an outburst of
hooting. Deputies in automobiles and
mounted and foot soldiers prevented seri-
GUS disorder
Trouble was feared at the mine shafts
and deputies were stationed at each of
them. The strikers were kept on the
move by the cavalry.

U. S. A. DR.. Sanbon has been a student
Of tropical medicine for years and was
one of those who made the famous ma

Campagna.
He has made a study Of pel1agra, and
about year ago advanced the theory
that il was transmitted by the buffalo

1t Is believed possible by those investi-
eating the disease that the buffalo gnat
and the stable fly are both responsible
for spreading the disease. One of the
chief results of DR.. Sanbons investi-
cation has been to disprove the former
belief that pellagra was caused by
eating spoiled corn. This belief was
generally held in Europe for years.

.FERROMANCANESE
| HALTS CONFERENCE
House Contests Senate Action
on Item in Metal Tariff
Schedule.

The first big fight in the conference on
the tariff bill came today over ferroman-
ganese which the Senate placed on the
free list. The House had increased the
duty on ferromanganese over the exist
ing law for the purpose Of revenue For
an hour and a half before the conference
broke up for lunch today this paragraph
in the steel schedule was under consider
alton. No conclusion was reached. and 1t
will be taken up again this afternoon.
This is the first evidence that the
House intends to make a strong contest
against some of the Senate reductions.
The House leaders believe that the Sen
ate has pared down the duties to such an
extent that there will not be Sufnctent
revenue to run the government. The con-
ferees practically completed consideration
Of the glass and earthenware schedule.
With a few minor exceptions, the Senate
amendments stand in this schedule. The
amendment placing portland cement on
the free list is retained. The paragraph
dealing with duties on mica was tenn
porarily passed over.
Reaches End Of Chemical Schedule.
At the first meeting of the conferees
yesterday afternoon, confined to the
democratic members of the conference
committee, work was completed on the
chemical schedule, the conferees agree
ing 10 most Of the Senate amendments
No particular contest was anticipated
over the amendments made 10 this sched-
ule by the Senate. The Senate amend
ment putting alizarin dyes. used in the
cotton and wooden industries, on the free
list was among the amendment agreed
to. The Senate conferees, however
agreed to recede from the amendment
putting chlorate of potash on the free
list. The House had a duty of ! cent
a pound on this article, and it is under
stood a compromise rate has been agreed
to in conference, for revenue purposes.
The democratic conferees will meet
sions. and the republican members
probably will not be called in until the
Ia tier part of next week.
In Line With Precedents.
senator La Toilette intimated today
that he considered the procedure of
the democrats unusual in working
over the bill without their associates
named from the two houses. but other
members of the committee said the
method pursued was in line with
precedents established in other tariff
revisions.
1t Is learned that President Wilson
has Joined with the House leaders IL

lieyed that tie Senate will be COM
