ENGINEER
RECALLED
TO TESTIFY

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Sept. g.
Engineer Miller of the White Noun
tam express, was recalled to the
stand today before Commerce Com
missioner McChord He admitted
that he had done two mems work the
week before the New Haven wreck
covering his own run as well as an
other engineers who was ill. The
other engineer, he said, was to have
resumed work Tuesday but couldn't
Miller said: "They decided as |
had done my work well for the week,
l might as well do it again, and here
we are" He testified that the didn't
drink whiskey nor other stimulants,
and that he slept whenever he could.
He didn't explain to the commission
why he testified yesterday that he
had had plenty of sleep before the
wreck.
G.. L. Bardo, general manager of
the New Haven road, testified that
the road in two years had authorized
nearly $7,O0O,OOO expenditure to in
crease the safety of passengers. He
testified that they were now purchas-
ing the steel cars altogether.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Sept. c.
1t is announced here that President
Elliott of the New Haven road, and
other officers have issued a state
ment regarding the wreck of that
road recently. 1t is reported that
they will, according to statement,
make sweeping changes in the oper-
ating system of the road, establish
ing new divisions.
A. M Smith, general manager of
the railroad, testified the road order
ed steel Club cars" for exclusive use
of rich commuters who rent them
at $4,000 annually.
,WASHINGTON-"H stick a
knife into man l am charged with
murder, but we let railroad directors
Use wooden cars and cause great loss
of life because steel cars cost too
much money and they can't have
them and pay dividends on watered
stock"
This statement was made today by
Vice President Marshall in discussing
the Wallingford, Conn, wreck.
There is no question but that
steel cars are one of the greatest
safety Devices" said he. That the
American public demands the great
est possible safety and is even ready
to stand an increase in railroad rates
to secure safety, was declared by the
vice president.
"But, if the railroads didn't water
their stock and bonds they could
equip their lines with steel cars and
safety appliances under the present
rates." he asserted. "The trouble
with railroads is there are too many
wheels within Wheels, too many cor
porations within corporations-and
the original parent corporation is
almost lost.
II think the American people when
they get the facts regarding railroad
rates, the full facts regardless of
prejudices, mean to be perfectly fair
I believe if they are once convinced
either passenger or freight rates are
too low to enable the railroads to
equip with every known, proved
safety device and to pay the very
highest grade of wages, the people
will cheerfully consent to an increase
in rates in order that the very high
est safety may be promoted and the
very highest wages paid. The pub,
lie is entitled to every modern ap-
pliance and invention that will pro.
mote safety"

WAGNER IS WINNER
IN BIG SUIT
JURY FINDS FOR DEFENDANT IN
TRIAL OF WATER DISPUTE
IN HAMILTON.

Hamilton, March 14.-(Special.)-
After nearly eight hours Of delibcra-
ton the jury in the ease of John l..
Mills again Joseph Wagner and others
returned a verdict tonight in favor of
the defendant. No case has attracted
more attention here in years. Mills
sued Joseph Wagner for $25, 900. al
leging that his crops had been dam
aged to that amount by the failure of
the irrigation company owned by the
defendants to furnish water. The best
lawyers in western Montana were Sc
cured by both sides in the case and a
keen battle was waged before Judge
McCulloch.
AT 2 o'clock this afternoon the trial
came to a close, but it was not until
$3.50 this evening that the jury re-
turned a verdict. A vote of 8 to 3
gave the decision to the defendant.
Judge F. G. Webster and Charles
Hall of Missoula and Joseph Wagner
Of Hamilton represented the defend
ants and Harry Parsons of Missoula
and r. A .O'Hara of Hamilton were
attorneys for the plaintiff.
There will be no more cases in the
district court until Tuesday, and on
account of this fact the jury was ex-
| cused until hat time.

Hamilton, March 14-(Special.)-
one of the largest crowds ever to wit
ness a trial in justice court here wit
messed the trial of the Victor assault
case in Justice Of the Peace Peshick's
court here his afternoon. After the
evidence for the state had been intro
duced, Attorney Wagner moved that
Ruby Gates and Grace Costello be dis
charged on the grounds that the evil
dence showed that they had ~Voluntar-
lily pleaded guilty before Justice
Hughes and that he had accepted $3.50
from each of them as a fine. AS the
justice admitted this, the motion was
sustained by the court. Attorney
Wagner also sought to have John
Smith and G. Beavers, the other two
defendants, released on the grounds
that the evidence failed to show that
they in any way assisted in the as
sault. This was overruled by the
court and the case so far as the young
men We're concerned went to the jury
on it's merits. The jury fined each of
| the young men IS. The trial came as
| the result of an assault last Tuesday
evening in Victor upon Miss Norma
Fowler by the Misses Grace Costello
and Ruby Gates. Smith and Beavers
were included in the charge on the
| grounds that they aided the girls in
their attack.

OF TENNIS
ARE HEARD
SAY HUNTERS HOT SPRINGS is
NOT SUITABLE FOR ANNUAL
TOURNAMENT.

~
Hamilton, March If (Special.)-
Local tennis enthusiasts are in favor
of a more central location for the state
tennis tournament, which is held each
year at Hunters Hot Springs. 1t is
argued that the holding of the tour
lament at the springs is not con-
ducive to a large number of entries
for the contests, as the matter of ex-
pense looms up as a barrier to the at
tendance of players from the western
sections of the state. If the tourna-
ment were held at Butte, Helena or
Missoula, practically all of the racquet
experts of the tennis playing sections
of the state would find it easier to
participate in the contests. 1t is not
felt that the present place of holding
the tournament affords accommodate
lions, which add to the success of the
meet, that could not be offered at any
Of the places mentioned.
Sentiment among local players favors
such a location of the tournament as
would promote the game in the state.
The game is fast getting a hold in the
west and is destined to become one of
MoEtana's leading summer sports.
Bringing the yearly tournament to a
more central location, or near the
western border of the state would be
a big boost for the game west of Hell
ena and Butte, and, it is argued, it
would make the tournament a bigger
and better event.
