Monday. that the cases be transferred 70
another county for trial. District Attor-
ney whitman has been aware for somo
DAYS past that such a move was Under
consideration, and his off1co ia prepared
to combat II.
Thu ground on which tho change OF
yenus will be asked is that tho men Do
ueye that they will be unable to get
fair trial in this county because OF the
infamed condition OF tho public miho
against them.
Should they be successful Il WIN be the
nrst time in the memory OF the present
generation OF lawyers and attaches about
the Criminal Court building that such
motion has been granted. Tradition mas

That the motion will be contested goes
without saying. Hitherto the courts
have held uniformly that out OF tho near
ly three million persons In Manhattan u
should be possible to secure twelve men
who are not unduly prejudiced. MT
Whitman so argued In the case or Charles
H. Hyde, and the court sustained him. 10
did the Appellate Division.
Tho decision TO file such a motion Is IN
terpreted as meaning that tho men have
decided no settlement short OF pleading
guilty to felony charge can De had
with the District Attorney and that they
have decided TO fight every step OF the
way. Whether Il means that all chances
of the depositors receiving any addluonal
compensation through friends and reia-
lives OF the indicted men could not be

II is because OF tho large number OF 90
positors-some fifteen thousand-and their
relatives that the defendants believe they
cannot get fair trial here. Directly IL

thousand persons arc interested. and with
this number in the community demanding
that the men be sent away, they thihA

The motion for q change will be MADE

John Napier. OF Merchiston, inventor
of logarithms. a committee, repre-
senting all the Scottish universities
and other bodies and institutions of
educational Importance. has been

held in Edinburgh
A general Invitation has been given
to mathematicians throughout the
world. and many we'll known profess
sors at home and from abroad expect
to take part in ii.
John Napier passed his early days
at Merchiston castle, and his book,
setting forth a system of mathem
les whereby calculations were greatly
facilitated. was published In 1914.
The castle, which dates from the six
teenth century. has al different times
been added to. and. now occupied as
a boys public school, draws pupils
from all parts of the empire.
In spite, however, of the many
changes made to the structure. the

in dealing with the great commerce
Of our country we are confronted with
IA dual Jurisdiction by reason of the
dual character of our governments.
To separate intrastata from interstate
commerce is a difficulty which often
presents itself Under our system of
government we are confronted at al
most every step with the conflict of
jurisdictions. Unfortunately or for
tunately the ether governments of the
world are not 40 hampered The fed
eral government has not the same
power to deal with commerce that the
State has with the commerce wholly
within its Jurisdiction. But I may
observe in passing, that the inter-

affords more depth for sounding and
more short lines for exploration than
any other clause or section OF that
great instrument In this clause IS to

five Of the periodical cicada, COM
monty known as the seventeen-year
locust, Is expected to make its ap-
pearance IN Ohio. West Virginia. Viz
Eirrta and Pennsylvania early IN Iune.
This is the territory which brood five
of these insects visited in the sum
mer of 1898. The insect when Ii ap-
pears causes considerable damage TO
newly planted orchards and shade
trees in this territory. The seien-
lists Of the bureau OF entomology
of the department of agriculture are
therefore watching this territory
where the insect Ia due to reappear.
with a view to minimizing It's dam
age.
The locusts are due TO appear in
the following counties in Virginia:
Augusta, Caroline, Highland and
Shenandoah.
The most reliable means of pro-
tecting nurseries and young orchards
from the insects is by collecting the m
in bags or umbrellas from the trees
during early morning or late even
ing when they are somewhat torpid.
The collections should he undertaken
at first appearance and repeated each
day. Ordinary repellents, such as
kerosene emulsion or carhohc acic
solution seem to have very little eff
feet in preventing oviposition of the
locust Recent experience indicates
that trees thoroughly sprayed with
Bordeaux mixture are apt to be
avoided by the cicada- especially II
there are other trees or woods in the
neig hhorhood on which they can owl
post
In view Of the difficulty Of controil-
ing the insect on a large scale after
It has once emerged. 1t Is we'll to
adopt any precautionary measures
that may tend to lessen or distrib
ute the injury, Forewarned, much
injury and loss may be avoided by
neglecting all pruning operations
during the winter and spring prior
to the expected appearance Of the
cicada in order to offer a larger twig
growth and distribute by this means
the damage over greater surface,
Another precaution, when cica-
Ia year is expected. is to defer the
planting of orchards. especially In the
vicinity of old orchards or forest
land, until the danger is past The
same advice applies TO budding or
