Charges Against the
Associated Press

From The New York Evening Post:
graduated upon the attacks made on
it. Only a few weeks 6 it was
libelled by The Masses, for which the
editors are to answer in court; and
today it is The Sun that has carried
out it's oft-rumored intention of ask
ing for a prosecution under the Sher-
man Antitrust law. It has so long
been the habit of irresponsible con-
gressmen to assail the Associated
Press upon the ground that it is a
news trust, or monopoly, that, as a
member of the Associated Press, The
Evening Post heartily welcomes a re-
view of its activities by the law Off
GERS Of the government. We do not
know Of a single member of this as
ISOLATION who would Willingly violate
the law of the land, or who would not
be glad to be informed of anything
done in cOntravention of the statutes.
If by these attacks the integrity Of
it's news service and its faithful OBJ
servance of the law can be establish
ed in the minds of certain agitators
and libellers, a great gain will have
resulted, if only by reassuring the
public as to a shief source Of it's
news supply.
So far as The Suns complaint is
concerned, it does not seem to us
worth the paper upon which it is writ
ten. Many Of the facts and letters it
prints todaV relate to a totally differ
ent organization-an Illinois corpora
ton which has not been in existence
since 1900. The present Associated
Press, let it be said once more, is a
membership corporation, comprised of
certain papers banded together for
mutual cooperation. It is not a pro-
fit-making concern, for it seeks and
makes no profits; it has no stock upon
which to pay dividends, and does not
pay interest on the bonds, which are
held by certain participating neWspa-
pers. It does not ven sell Jews, but
delivers it's news at cost to members
and subscribers. No n car buy its
news over the counter; The Sun tried
it, and was informed that it must seek
membership. That it has not applied
for such membership is g. point Of
obvious interest in connection with
it's present application to the attorney
general. The Associated Press's Off
Gals are responsible to the member
ship of more than 500 newspapers;
| from them is drawn the news of the
! country. If, as The Masses charged,
! the Associated Press is merely a sew
er into which are poured lies, fals1-
| fcations, and Misrepresentation of
conditions among the working people
| Of this cuntry, then the indictment lies
| against the 500 associated newspapers.
AS a matter of fact, it is to the inter-

GREECE AND TURKEY

Berlin believes or processes to be-
lleVe, that war between Turkey and
Greece Is inevitable, and so has in
formed the Greek prime minister who
has been visiting the capitals Of the
great powers in the interest Of his
country.
Berlin declares that Greece must
make substantial concessions to Tur-
key in order to avoid war. Such con-
cessions mean no less than the return
to Turkey of the islands Of Chios and
Mitylene with their Greek populations
that have enthusiastically welcomed
their blood brothers. Everybody knows
what vengeance would be wreaked
upon those populations, were the OF
tonan troops to occupy the two islands
again.
Not even Premier Venezelos has
sufIicifnt influence with the Hellenic
people t o induce them to return chios
and MityIene to the. tender! Turks.
And even were the two returned, there
would be no guaranty that the porte
would not demand new concessions
Envers Bey, who is now the Turkish
war minister and the dominating spir-
ST. at Constantinople, will never be
content until Turkey has at least en-
deavored to win back by sword what
she has lost by the sword. The re-
gaining of Adrianople has heartened
him. as it has all Mussulmans, so that
f,e iii resolved to strike upon the first
favorable opportunity.
The Turkish hope is encouraged

st. Louis, Feb. 9.-Loretta, the O.
year-old daughter Of Police Sergeant

alley late Wednesday night and after

SCHMIDT READY TO !
FACE DEATH CHAIR

New York. Feb. 9.-Hans Schmidt,
found guilty of murder in the first de-
gree for killing Ammo Aumuller. is
seemingly content with the verdict,
and declines to permit his counsel to
appeal. Next Wednesday Schmidt will
be sentenced to die in the electric
chair.
TIL verdict against Schmidt was rem
dered a little more than two hours
after the jury had retired 1t seems

who had sat through the twelve trial

CONVICTION OF SCHMIDT.

No other verdict than that Of MUIR
der in the first degree was possible
in the case Of Hans Schmidt, the de-
PRAYED and degraded priest who kill
ed a young woman with whom he as
ISOLATED in New York. His confess
sion of the crime left no doubt on the
mind of the court, although it was
necessary to establish Schmidt's guilt
by Independent testimony.
Utter public disgust prevails at the
amazing contradictions Of experts in
insanity. In the Schmidt case as in
others that preceded it there was a
sharp line Of division among the alien
lists called on to testify. 1t would
seem, Notwithstanding that they are
bored by opposing interests, there
should be a reasonable basis Of agree
ment as to the sanity of the prisoner
among medical experts called on to
testify in cases such as that Of Sch
midi.
If the question to be determined
were DIS 10 Wnetner or no the prisoner
was suffering from pneumonia or
Bright's disease, all the experts called
on both sides would agree in their
diagnoses. But when the disease is
that of the mind it is always found
that the alienists called for the prose-
cution find the prisoner sane, while
the experts for the defense invariably
class him a lunatic.
The scandal Of expert testimony has
SO far that at the latest meeting
of the New York State Bar association
a sweeping change in the law con-
corning murdereds whose sanity is
questioned was suggested by an i'm
portant committee of that body.

fell into a sound sleep. It was when
he was awakened by his counsel, AL
phonse G. Koelble., that he made the
announcement that he wanted no ap-
peal. - u-
II am satisfied with the verdict"
said Schmidt. Il, would rather die to-
day than. tomorrow. I notify you that
I do not want you to appeal"
The murder of Anna Aumuller was
n of the most horrible in the crime
history of this city. Schmidt was a
priest attached to st. Joseph's church
when he took the girl to a a he had
fitted UP. He confessed that on the
morning of Sept. 2 last he went to the
house about midnight and, while she
slept. cut her throat and then dig
membered the body, cutting it into
nine parts.
