day before.
1T was a curious fact that Mr. Ar

OF which was Vilfication and abuse,

Attorney Rosser interrupted the So
licitor TO say that he might be bad
enough lawyer to insist on the con-
sideration OF those very points"
Frank A. Hooper. who was associ-
ated with the Solicitor in the prose-
cution OF Frank, spoke an hour at the
hearing Monday after the conclusion
of Reuben Arnold's argument, which
had consumed total Of nearly
twelve hours in its delivery. Hooper
ridiculed the allegations OF bias
against Henslee and declared that the
charges of prejudice were so vague
and indefinite as 10 time and sur
roundings that no credence would be
given them in nine cases out OF ten.
Third Degree Denied.
Hoover resented strongly the insin-
va atoms that Dorsey had conductei
the case in a vindictive and UNFAIR
manner and had used third degree"
methods to wiring false testimony
from some OF the illnesses. notably
Minola Mcknight.
He declared that 1t had been cne

my eloquent tongued friend. Mr.

CROUL CARRIES
CASE TO COUNCIL
Wants Police Patrols Released
From Restrictions of
Speed Ordinance

Declaring that the efficiency OF the
flying squadron and auto patrol sys-
TENS would be set at naught by 4
ruling requiring them TO keep within
the speed limit OF l5 miles an hour
outside Of the mile circle, and IL
miles inside that circle, Police Com
missioner Croul filed a petition with
the common council, Tuesday night,
asking for special enactment to give
the police vehicles the right to violate
the present ordinance. The commits
sioner's statement follows in part:
Under modern civic conditions one
of the greatest agencies for the pre-
vention and suppression OF crime has
been the so-called emergency squad.
This emergency squad must get to
the scene OF trouble before the
emergency is over to be of any value.
The same thing holds true in regard
to the fire department. The automo-
bile drivers OF the police department
are picked men OF unusual ability and
carefulness. They are under strict
instructions never TO speed at rate
greater than that required by the
emergency character of the call
Whenever a driver has been found
in any degree neglectful of the safety
OF the public, he has been invariably
severely disciplined and the depart
ment is always open for complaints
of this character

accidents since the Inauguration OF

Contempt Charges May Be
Brought Against Defiant

WASHINGTON, Jan. Slow TO
deal with recalcltrant witnesses and
to force from the administration the
production OF certain treasury depart

inquisitors today. A special meeting
OF the full house banking committee
was considered 10 map out plans.
Refusal OF the administration TO dis
close confidential reports by national
hanks TO the controller or the cur

liam Rockefeller, OF the Standard OIL
company, and fiat refusal OF Il. G..
Henry, New York broker, TO disclose
banks involved in promoting the Cali
fornla Petroleum company, were to be
discussed
Lawrence o. Murray, controller OF
the currency, was summoned before
the committee today. Through him IL
was proposed 10 show that President
Taft refused to divulge the national
banks reports 10 the treasury depart

signed TO support the committees con-
tention that there was immediate
necessity for passage by the senate
OF the resolution, already passed by
the house, giving the Pujo committee
inquisitorial powers over the control

Chairman Pujo today said that con-
tempt charges would be rushed
against Henry. The papers are being
prepared today for certification by
Speaker Clark, and submission TO the

no action Is contemplated against
Rockefeller, whose physician has Civ
en- out an interview in which he said
that Rockefeller will have TO avoid

The following Is attributed TO the
physician, Dr. Walter F. Chappell:
| IT have come to the conclusion that
Mr.. Rockefeller's throat trouble Is
chronic, and that he must subject him
self to silent treatment for the re

remembered that Mr.. Rockefeller Is
