stand for an apportionment between
the fusing parties giving the republic

HOW TO DODGE wASpS

A MAN on his first trip into the wilds and
marshes of an unknown country with the
United States drainage engineers was struck
by unique method they have to escape
from the attack of wasps and hornets. The
country traversed is generally covered with
thick underground, and path has to be cut
through this all along the line. So when a
big wasp nest is reached there is very little
warning, sometimes the axmen cutting into
a big one with their machetes.
The person relating this experience was
some sixty feet behind the axrnen with the
instrument, when all at once the two axrnen
dropped in their tracks as if they had been
struck by thunderbolt. The man behind
and the two chainmen did likewise. While
they were lying prone on the grass and wet
marsh they heard what sounded like bullets
zooing over their heads. One after the other
they came with angry tips. When things
had quoted down bit work was continued,
and the new man found that to escape from
wasps or hornets the thing to do was to drop
instanter. The insects seem to be so mad
that they fly in straight lines along level
and do not have time to hunt around for
you.
1t is said that hornets are not so prone
to follow this rule as wasps; but the
wasps never vary. Men have been stung
to death by hornets, and horses and mules
likewise.

TAKE SUMMER|LL
CASE FROM JUDGE
Charges Against Gloucester
Prosecutor Removed to An
other Court.
Especial 10 the Newark star.l

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. June 16.-
The so-called conspiracy and black
mail case which involves Joseph j.
Summerill, the public prosecutor of
Gloucester count, New Jersey, and
three other prominent men of the
county, has become still more COM
plicated.
The developments in the City Hall
Police Court when Magistrate Cor
man was to hand down a decision at
noon in the chrges against Summerill
and Joseph r. Best, a member of the
Gloucester County Board of Free
holders. were as follows:
The prosecution withdrew its case
from Mr.. Germans jurisdiction. The
magistrate, therefore. was prevented
from handing down his decision, but
in the opinion he had prepared he
would have discharged Summerill and
Best
Counsel for the prosecution told

trict Attorney Rothan to investigate
the case. Neither Mr.. Summerhill
nor Best appeared in court. The pros

that Summerhill and Best. together

WILSON WILL READ
HIS OWN CURRENCY
PLAN TO CONGRESS
Message to Be Followed This
Week by Measure, Launched
in Both Houses.
mo MANS BILL" BUT THE
RESULT OF COMMON VIEWS
Harmony of Purpose, if Not
Harmony of Opinion, Presi-
dents Explanation.

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 16.-
President Wilson probably will read
his currency message, personally. to
both branches of Congress assembled
In the hall of the House. as he did
his tariff message. He finished writ
ing the message today 1t is about
,1.200 words long and urges immedi-
ate revision of the banking and cur
rency laws.
The President expects the currency
bill to be launched in both houses of
Congress some time this week. 1t
represents the administrations views,
and according to Mr.. Wilson himself,
will be mo mans bill,' but the re-
suit of common counsel among cur
rency advocates whose suggestions
were condensed and formulated by
Secretary McAdoo of the treasury
department, Chairmen Owen and
Glass of the Senate and House bank
ing and currency committees, re-
spectively. with the advice and as
sistance of the President.
At the regular semi-weekly con-
ference with the Washington corre-
spondents today, the President was
asked for an explanation of some
principles of the currency reform.
but said that inasmuch as the bill
and his own message would be made
public within a week, he would re-
frain from comment at this time.
The President was undecided as to
whether his message would be pre-
sented to Congress in advance of the
currency bill or whether both would
be made public about the same time
The impression prevailed, however,
that the bill will be introduced in
both Houses by Wednesday or
Thursday of this week, and that the
President will pronounce his views
to Congress about June %.
The President did declare, however,
today that there were no essential
variations among the leading Demo-
Gratis with whom he had consulteu
concerning currency reform. AS to
the intimatfon from the capitol that
currency legislation was not desired
at this session. the President declared
that no such information had been
conveyed to him. His Impression was
that the need of. currency legislation
was recognized, but that the only
objection raised against its enact
ment at the extra session was the
approaching hot season

SHIN BONE SAVES
WEAKENED SPINE
Piece of Former inserted in
Latter, Which Is Tubercular,
by Local Surgeon.

One of the most delicate operations
known in surgery. whereby piece of
bone five inches long, taken from the
shinbone of the patient, Vito Passa-
lacqua. of 316 Morris avenue. was in
serted in his spinal column, in order
to relieve the pressure ON portion
of the spine that was tubercular, and
hence unable to support the body's
weight, was performed in this city
Saturday at St. Barnabas's Hospital
BY means of this operation the un-
healthy portion of the patients spine
is, so to speak. given vacation, in
order to recuperate and to grow
sound again. without the operation
1t would have become more diseased
by degrees until 1t caused the
patients death.
That part of the shinbone which
was removed will, according to the
physicians, be entirely replaced with
in few months by the natural
growth of the bone. the only danger
to be feared being that the bone itself
may have been infected in the course
Of the operation. In the present case,
however. it is expected that no such
complication will ensue and that the
operation will prove complete sue
cess.

COAL MINERS IN
WEST VIRGINIA
RENEW STRIKE
Bitterly Accuse Operators OF
Failure to Live Up to Agree
ment Terms.
SENATE PROBERS TODAY
GIVE EMPLOYERS HEARING
Man Testifies He Worked Four
Weeks, Got Nothing, Owed
the Company.

CHARLESTON. w. Va, June 16--
Word came to Charleston early this
morning from various sources that
the miners at work in the operations
on Paint and Cabin Creeks had voted
at mass-meeting yesterday to renew
the strike, which for a year has con-
vulsed the coal field.
According to reports reaching Gov
ernor Hatfield, meetings at Eskdale
and in the mountains above Kayfor1
voted not to return to work this
morning.
Representatives of the miners APP
pearing before the Senate commit
tee investigat ting the strike received
confirmation of the report that the
strike would be renewed this morn
ing Information that has just come
to me from Paint and Cabin Creeks, .
said S. B. Montgomery, of counsel
for the miners, makes it practically
certain that the strike will be re-
newed.
Much testimony was given bearing
upon the charges of inhuman conduct
on the part of mine operators
toward their employees. One man
testified that after he had worked
for the company at Mucklow for four
weeks, receiving no pay, he was told
that he was in debt to the company.
THE operators have failed to live
up to the agreement of Governor
Hatfield's, which provided that the
strikers were to be taken back ia
work without discrimination
Feelings Keyed to High Pitch.
With feeling between miners and
mine operators again keyed up to a
high pitch, the Senate committee
prepared today to call upon the mine
operators for their side of the con-
troversy. Former mine guards, de-
tectives and special agents and keen
eyed miners and union organizers
throneed the lobby of the hotel.
where the committee was in session,
and crowded the room, where the
hearing was being held.
$, Contradiction and explanation of
the stories told all last week by the
men and women who lived through
what former Governor Glasscock
called reign Of terror" In the strike
district, was the program of the
operators and they had seventy wit
nesses on hand to prove their case.

KANSAS RATE LAW
UNCONSTITUTIONAL
u. S. Supreme Court Decides
$500 Penalty for Each Viola
ton InvaIidates Statute.

WASHINGTON, June 16.-Because
of a provision in the law arbitrarily
fixing $500 damages for each viola
tion, the Supreme Court today an
ulled as unconstitutional the Kansas
statute of 1905. which fixed the maxi
mum rates for the transportation of
oil by rail. The Objectionable clause
was held to prevent railroads from
testing whether the rates We're con-
fiscatory.
Justice Hughes, who announced the
decision, held that the point sought
to be made by the railroads to the
effect that the Missouri rates were
an interference with interstate COM
merce must be decided against them
for the same reasons given by the
court in the Minnesota rate cases.
In the Missouri rate cases today the
Supreme Court held the rates confis-
catory on the St. Louis and Hannibal,
Kansas City, Clinton and Springfield
and the Chicago Great Western rail-
roads.

DEATH BY AUTO
HIS KEEN DESIRE
Blunbaum Tries to Get Under
Police Machine Thrice in
Three Minutes.

Saved from almost certain death
three times in as many minutes was
the record made by Fred Blumbaum,
S6 years old, of 116 Norfolk street.
The story of how it happened was
told in the Second Precinct Police
Court today, and no one was more
astonished or Mortified than Blum
baum himself at the uarrowness of
his escape.
Michael Cunning, chauffeur of the
Second precinct auto patrol. was
speeding along Broad street yester
day afternoon in answer to a call
from Broad and Lombardy street,
when at Eighth avenue, man
dashed out squarely in front of the
machine.
The police chauffeur sent the big
auto careening into the car tracks in
a desperate effort to avoid hitting the
man. The machine missed him by
not more than four inches.
After he had stopped, Cunning went
back and. finding Blumbaum intoxi-
Gated, gave him a warning.
Climbing back to his seat Cunning
turned and said to Patrolman Nc
Grath:
THAT was closer than anything l
want to see again"
Then he started the machine. Just
as he did so. Blumbaum. who had
run up behind flung himself in front
of the patrol again. Cunning nearly
ran UP on the curb in avoiding him.
McGrath got out. escorted Blumbaum
to the sidewalk and told him that If
he were wise he would quit trying to
commit suicide.
Cunning had started for a second
time. when McGrath saw Blumbaum
racing for a point directly ahead of
the patrol The policeman jumped
from the moving auto and caught him
as he tried for third time to throw
himself under the wheels.
In the police court today Blumbaum
said he did not know why he had
tried to throw himself in front of the
patrol Judge Herr suspended SEN
tence.
Joseph Smith, 46 years old. of Ais
Fifteenth avenue, the prisoner for
whom the wagon had been summoned,
was fined s5 for sleeping ON park
bench.
