Temporarily forgetting all business
cares six hundred members of the
Washington Board of Trade CLOSED
up shop yesterday and journeyed
aboard the steamer st. Johns to
River View where the nineteenth an
gram had been arranged.
1t was one of the joliest outings ever
held by the Board of Trade members.
The weather was good although up to
the time the steamer made its first trip
to the resort in the morning 1t threaten
ed to rain Every one was in the best
of spirits. an excellent planked shad
dinner was served and an elaborate pro-
gram arranged.
The forenoon was devoted to base ball
Other athletic events were held in the
afternoon. Many whose set ways would
prevent them from even hurrying for a
street car DOTTED their coats and vests
and attempted to set a new record for
the 1OO-yard dash.
Approximately $50 OF those attending
the event were on the st. Johns when the
steamer made the first trip to the re-
sort at 10 o'clock in the morning. The
remainder went down on the second trip
at AS in the afternoon.
Committee in Charge.
The success Of the outing was large
ly due to the hard work of Chairman
Frank e. Gibson Of the arrangements

the past two months or more. Each
member of this committee served as
the chairman of a subcommittee which

LAW SCHOOL GRADUATES
RECEIVE GOOD ADVICE
Secretary of Labor Wilson
Principal Speaker at Ma
tionaI University Dinner.

The members of the law class of 1915
of the National University Law School
gathered around the banquet board at
Rauscher's last night and listened to
words OF announcement from officials
in the new administration and from
prominent Washington lawyers. William
B. Wilson. Secretary of Labor, was the
speaker Of the evening. He declared
that 1t Is not true, as some people be-
lieve. that labor unions are organized to
promote strikes. Strikes between labor
and capital he compared with wars be-
tween nations, in that they bring suffer
ing and loss OF property. 4,e then out
lined the proposed efforts of the new
Department of Labor in attempting to
effect a partnership between employer
and employe.
Edwin f. Sweet, assistant secretary of
commerce. paid a tribute to both Secre-
tary Wilson and William c. Redfield,
Secretary of Commerce. He declared that
President Wilson could not have made
better selections for these positions. He
told the members of the law class of
the fine opportunities which they had of
getting a good education. and declared
that he had farm In the west which
he would gladly give If he could be in
the place of one Of the students at the
banquet. He then outlined in some de-
tail the work of the Department of Com
marco.

platform by President Droop, who con-
graduated him on the successful way
in which the outing had been handled.
With all due solemnity DR.. Gibson was

ed medal" The medal proved to be
a wooden cross suspended by pieces of
heavy iron chain from a bar of wood.

night journey that passengers on the
story City branch train, due il this
city Monday evening at 4:45 O'Clock,
and those who wanted to go to branch
towns on the o'clock train, took Mon

of the passengers to spend all night In
the coach.
The car and engine got off the track

from here at $3.50. 1t took aboard ali

RAILROAD ATTORNEYS FILE MO.
r,oNs FOR JUDGMENT DESPITE
JuRv's FINDINGS.
RENEW ARGUMENTS ON
FEDERAL LIABILITY LAW
Motions Set Up That kelIehsr's Only
Cause For Action is Under Federal
Lsw-Time Limit For That Having
Expired Claim is Now Without Legal
Standing.

Judging by two motions filed Monday
afternoon by the Iowa Central lawyers
in the case of j. w. Breen VS.. that
company, one of the principal If not
the principal, ground on which an APP
peal to the supreme court will be based
viii be the claim that it is only under
the federal employers liability act that
Myles Kelleher can recover. This, and
other phases of the same theory OF the
case, are contained in two motions. one
for judgment Notwithstanding the $14,-
500 verdict for Kelleher and another
motion for an arrest Of judgment, that
were filed.
Argue Motions Next Week.
The motions VIII very probably be
argued before Judge Nichols some time
next week. The presumption is that,
il these motions are overruled, an ap-
peal will be taken on the ground set
out in the motion. ractically the same
theory OF practice was set out in the
motion for directed verdict th;1 the
railroad lawyers filed While the case
was on trial. Judge Nichols overruled
the motion because he held that the
new issue in the case could not be ad-
mitted at the close Of the PLAINTIFFS
testimony, the issue having not been
previously raised.
Claims Federal Law Applies.
; The motions are Identical in text.
They set out that the evidence at the
last trial showed without dispute that
Breen's assignor, Myles kelleher, and
the railroad company were engaged in
interstate traffic at the time OF the
accident. This being the case, the mo-
tions argue, the only law under which
there could be a recovery is the federal
employers liability act Of April %,
1908. but the petition does not set out
cause of action under said statute.
| In other words the petition does not
state a cause of action under the facts
as now proven"
BARRED by Limitation.
It is further set out in the motions
that the federal act has sole and ex-
elusive jurisdiction of tn, case on trial
and that this act alone fixes the rights
and liabilities Of the litigants. THAI
under the said act, the claim and cause
of action does not survive, is nonas-
| signable. and the same is barred by the
statute OF limitation"
The motions say, in addition. that il
1t is presumed. that the rights of the
litigants are governed by the laws and
statutes of Iowa. that presumption is
! overcome by the evidence that kelle-
| her and the railroad company were
engaged in interstate and not intra-
state commerce. The motions likewise
attack the validity of the assignment
of the Kelleher claim to Breen.

Philadelphia, Jan. 31-'"There is no

William J. Bryan is to be secretary

sage by Col House.
This was the statement here, today,
of President-elect Wilson. The gov

have been current for a hours he
said:
THE story is based on the theory
that I could not recall the names
of other men who have been suggest

There is no justification for any
such inference. 'I doubt If I could
recall the names of the men who
have been suggested for any cabinet

not limited to suggestions in making
up my cabinet. reserve the pr1vi-
lege of making some suggestions to
myself and might appoint to places
in my cabinet men who have not been
suggested to me at all.

cerning the cabinet, the situation is

Miss Ba1t1ga, who is but 20 years
old said that on Monday last she had
attended a wedding party on Hancock
she had been invited by Steve Lascik,
Henry Murowski, ,and Joseph "NGalinow-
ski, to partake of some whiskey. 1t
was extremely sweet and after taking
but two glasses she refused to take
more believing it had been doctored.
The trio then, according to her al
legations attempted to have her drink
wine. While she was in the act of
putting a glass to her mouth she be-
came unconscious.
She further claimed that she knew
morning when she found herself upon
the floor of a house in Pine street
occupied by Adam Murowski.
It has since been learned by the
police that others of the party were
in the house at the time and that COR

can be secured.

TO1TERIRG LORDS
REJECT MEASURE

London, Jan. S1-1rish Nationalist
leaders. today, began to marshal their
forces for the next House of Com
mons division on the Asquith home
rule bill The next parliament, al
ready elected, will sit the middle of
February and Premier Asouith fol-
lowing the Lords rejection of the bill,
last night, Will re-introdIlce the meas
ure among the first of the govern
ment's bills.
The House of Lords as expected,
hung UP the home rule bill by di-
esting debate. There was little inter
est in the sitting. AS a society event,
It wa1 brilliant, the galleries being
filled with handsomely, gowned peer
esEHs and brilliantly uniformed mem
bers Of the diplomatic corps all there
to see peers who had not appeared in
Westminster since the debate on the
veto act The Irish Natdona1ists. too,
were in evidence at the bar of the
House and behind the woolsack, but
the crowd was not there and demon
EtrattOhs were lacking.
1t was conceded that the Lords
would defeat the bill. It Is equally
certain that the home rule measure
will be passed by the next Commons,
the government's majority being about
the same. The last majority for the
bill wes no Should the Lords again
reject the bill, it will be intr oduced
again In the spring of 1914. If passed
by the Commons then it can become
a law under the veto act by the sig
nature OF King George.

Der of a prominent family in Old
Lyme and had q law office in New
