ARM|ST|CE ON IN
BEARDSLEY SIEGE
Man Who Shot Sheriff Wants
Until Wednesday to Give
Children to Brother.

MAYVILLE, n. Y, Jan. 19.-The
siege of Edward Beardsley, the SUM
merdale farmer, today resolved itself
into a waiting game. The outlaw
has agreed to give himself up We'd
nesday but only on his own terms.
He stipulated that the nine children
who have been his safeguard since
the siege began be taken to the home
of his brother Charles, in Titusville,
Jail in Mayville in the custody of his
lawyer. No startling development is
expected before Wednesday,. In the
meanwhile Sheriff AndeSson and his
posse are keeping guard at their
camp, well out of range of Beardsley' S
rifle.
Today is the seventh day that
Beardsley has openly defled the law
as exemplified by Sheriff Anderson.
A week ago Tuesday he shot !. w.
Putnam, overseer of the poor of
Chautauqua county, and since that
time has successfully kept himself
beyond the reach of the law. He has
had complete control of the situa-
ton and his authority has not been
questioned.
Fear of injuring the nine children
has held the sheriff and his men In
check. That Beardsley we'll knows
this was illustrated during one of his
parleys with the sheriff's representa-
tives Pulling aside the burlap COW
ering at the window he invited his
interviewers to see what the sheriff
and his men would have to shoot
through to get him. Beardsley was
crouched on the floor, rife in hand,
behind the woman and the wall of lit
tie children.

R. C. BREMNER, ILL,
PLEADS FOR LABOR
Urges Safety Bureau TO Protects
$4,000 900 Workers of
the Country.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-Repre-
sentative Robert G. Bremner, of New
Jersey. i'll with cancer, administers a
singing rebuke to the United States
for its neglect in protecting the army
of 54,000000 workmen in this country
from preventable accidents and
deaths in its great industries.
Bremner's statement is contained m
a report submitted to the House by
the House committee on labor,
recommending the passage of the bill
creating %bureau of labor safety de.
vices.
One of the ambitions of the New
Jersey Representative is to obtain
the passage of the labor safety legis-
lation before the disease causes his
death
He has told his friends on the COM
mittee that should Congress pass the
bill which he helped to draft he will
feel that he has not lived in vain. j.
Bremner's assertion In the commit
tees report sets forth:
1.-THE United States today occupies
a curious position among the indus-
trial nations. Ambitious to be the
first in point of output, we are ssocio-
logically the last in our methods of
production. From the mechanical
point of view we claim to lead, but
the student OF Industrial economy is
amazed to find that we practically
ignore the modern science of con-
servation in its most important as
pect.
Trees, minerals lands, water must
be safeguarded from further waste
But the government protection Of
these 34000,O 900 men, women and chill
dren who constitute our industrial
army. upon whose well-being rests
the whole economic and social fabric
of our country, is phase of conser-
walton practically ignored by our leg
islators and the public.
zone reason why the United States
has not faced this question in the
same practical spirit as other nations
is the fact that we rely on immIgra-
ton to make good our great waste
of human material.
1T is estimated that out of the A,-
600. 900 engaged in gainful occupations
there are yearly $4,000 deaths, 1000 900
accidents, of which $4,000 are serious,
and 100000 cases of preventable In
dustrial illness.
While the killing of man usually
is only the beginning Of the burden
which society must assume-witness
the $1,000 widows and $4,000 orphans
which industry deprives annually of
their natural supporters-let us
rather accept the business view of
the loss entailed by occupationaI
deaths"
Bremner estimates the average eco
nomic value of worker in this
country at $500. and on this basis
the nation loses s110, 200, 900 annually.
The two million accidents cause a.
loss of probably s40,000000 in earn
ings. he says, and, on the German
basis of calculation. the 5000, 900 cases
of preventable Industrial illness cost
the country about $4,000 000, 600 The
total loss is estimated annually at
$3.50, 900, 900.

TRADE OPTIMISTIC,
SAYS PRESIDENT
Tells Callers That Confidence
in Future Is General-Also
Talks TRUSTS"

WASHINGTON, jain. 19-President
Wilson has been receiving opinions
and estimates on the business situa-
ton throughout the country which
lead him to believe that a general
confidence in the future exists.
The President told callers today
that while he had no scientific analy-
sis of the situation and that his let
tiers were of various colors, in the
main conditions We're optimistic. The
President is said to believe that in
some industries, especially those de-
pendent on the railroads. conditions
have not been so satisfactory, but he
made it clear, incidentally, that he
had not expressed any opinion, as had
been reported. on the propriety of In
creasing freight rates. The Presi-
dent let it be known, however, that
while he held distinct views on the
question he did not feel that he could
express them while the subject was
being determined by semi judicial
body.
With reference to the tariff, the
Presidents letters lead him to be-
lieve that business actually has been
stimulated by it and that the average
small merchant is in better condition
now than formerly.
The administration intends chiefly
through its trust program to 'facili-
tate the processes of accommodation"
as contrasted with the processes of
suit"
President Wilson told callers that
the recent agreements between the
department of justice and business
concerns were not settlements which
abated the law in the least degree,
but merely understanding as to the
method and time within which cor
porations were to conform to the law,
while being allowed reasonable Pc
RODS for adjustment
In that sense. the word "accommo-
dation" is used, meaning accommo-
dating the process to interests of
business, though not aba ting the law.
In that connection the President be-
lieves better machinery for conduct
ing processes of accommodation to
the law ought to be set up.
An interstate trade commission is
the body the President has in mind
to fill that need. though it was APP
parent today that he had not gone
further than outlining its general
functions and intends that the details
of limiting the powers of the commits
sion shall be left to those drafting
the new laws in the Congressional
committees.
The Presidents message went to
the printer today and will be deliv-
cred to Congress tomorrow.

ELLIS FURNISHES
BAIL FOR WOMAN
Continued from First Page.)

Mr. Ellis returned to Somerville from
his home in Basking Ridge on Thurs
day morning, and then provided a.
S., 900 bail bond and Mrs. Holly was re-
leased. She was under the care of a
physician in Jail"
When Prosecutor Pope was asked
about the arrest of Mrs. Holly as a
material witness he said.
Prosecutor to Make Statement.
81 will neither confirm nor deny the
report that Mrs. Holly was taken into
custody. AS soon as 1 am ready l
shall make a full statement covering
all details of the case"
In view of the publicity that has
been given the case. it was said that
the statement of Prosecutor Pope may
be forthcoming today.
Mr. Pope makes 1T clear that he
takes but little stock in the alleged
confession made by the Carl boy. He
said:
although the detectives (Pinker-
tons) have worked necessarily, they
have not been able to find any cor
roborative evidence that 1 know of
sion stand up. At any rate, l have
been furnished with no such corrob-
orative evidence"
In giving his reasons for not be-
lieving all Carl is alleged to have
confessed, Pope cited several points
| in the case. For instance, Carl is said
to have told the detectives that on
| November 49, 1911, the day before Ell
| lis was shot, he had met his aunt,
Mrs. Holly, at Gladstone, and at that
meeting had told her he had been un-
able to hire professional gunman in
New York to undertake the job of as
sassinating Ellis, because he had not
been able to show any of the three
with whom he had talked where the
$500 for the job was coming from or
to give any assurance that it would
| be paid.
! Mother Ridlcules Confession.
| Mrs. Sarah Carl, mother of the pris-
oner, who lives in Stroudsburg, Pa.
has assured Prosecutor Pope that this
| feature of the alleged confession could
not be true, as her son had left
| Stroudsburg at p. m. on November
10 on a train for New York tina
stopped only at Dover This trair
was due In New York at 1880 p. m
The boys mother submitted t.
Prosecutor Pope that, as Gladstone
where Carl said he had met his aunt
is seventeen miles from Dover, i
would have been impossible for hin
to have met Mrs. Holly when he salt
4 he did. There is no direct railroad
connection between the two points
and Prosecutor Pope is looking int
this phase of the case.

Dupont Powder Co. Offers
Property for New School
for POmpton Township

HASKELL, Jan ia meeting for
the purpose of discussing plans for a
new school house for Pompton town
ship will be held here Wednesday
night. The site for the proposed
school has been donated by the Du-
pont Powder Company, which has
plants in this section.
The Dupont Company also has
agreed to pay for the heating and
ventilation equipment of the building.
It is estimated that the Dupont gift
would be worth $4,000.
The present school building is a
wooden one and has only four rooms.
There are six teachers for these four
rooms. and a large percentage of the
pupils are attending school only part
of the time, There are about 100 to
t75 pupils enrolled. while the school
is not nearly large enough to ac-
commodate them properly.
Plans of the new school have been
drawn by Kelly & Struck, of Passaic.
These call for an eight-room brick
building.

COMMITTEE OPENS
RADIUM HEARING
Advocates and Opponents of
Foster Bill Ready to Give
Their Views.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The House
mines committee today began hear
ings regarding radium and the eco
nomic questions involved in proposed
Legislation for Withdrawing from set
Element public lands containing radi-
reproducing ores. Advocates and
opponents of the Foster bill, prepared
with the approval of the interior de-
partment, were ready to give their
views, and Chairman Foster, OF the
committee, expects that legislation
along the lines of his bill will be ex-
pedited through Congress.
DR. Howard A. Kelly, of Baltimore,
testified as to the necessity of immedi-
ate action from the standpoint of the
medical profession. Dr. Gaylord, OF
New York, was ready to present his
views.
Opposition to the bill in its present
form is from the Colorado delegation
in Congress, who have conferred with
Secretary Lane in an effort to bring
about a satisfactory compromise, and
from those interested in the mining
of the radium-produeing ores and
their expectation. ]. NJ. Flannery, or
Pittsburgh, interested in the Colorado
mines, heads a deputation in opposi-
III.
with the advocates of legislation that
ii is necessary to prevent a monopoly
of radium- producing territory ana
that a ban on expectation might be
wise. Plans for the hearing have at
tracted considerable attention, par
ticularly because of the expectation or
discussion by medical authorities re-
garding the possibilities Of radium as
a cure for cancer
DR.. Kelly told the committee OF
several recent cases in his own eX-
perience where radium had made pos
sible complete cures of cancer. he
declared that radium bearing ores
were exported from the United States
in considerable amounts. He thought
that IL lands were left open to pros
pectors and a government factory
was ready to take over and work all
ores, no monopoly would be possible.
DR.. Kelly said $4,000 persons died
annually in the United States from
cancer, and that there were three or
four times that many cases. DR.. Rob-
ert Able. of st. Luke's Hospital, New
York, favored government control of
the use of radium hereafter pro-
duced from government lands. Dr.
GAYLORD director of the New York
cancer laboratory also favored gov
eminent control of the use of radium.
DR.. C. f. Burnham, of Johns Hop
kins University, Baltimore, said he
had visited virtually every institution
in Europe where radium is used and
had been discouraged by results he
had seen of efforts to employ it in the
treatment of other diseases than can
Ger. He urged prompt action to make
radium available to hospitals of merit
now without 1t.

tary Redfield a letter from Director
Harris, of the census bureau, com.
mending Public Printer Cornelius J.
Ford and the government printing
