SUIT OVER STATE ROAD.
Anne Arundel and Prince Georges
People Against Commission.

People Against Commission.
Annapolis.-The question Of the
route for State highway through
Anne Arundel and Prince Georges
counties is the basis of an injunction
suit filed in the Anne Arundel Circuit
Court against Chairman E. o. Weller
and the other members of the State
Roads Commission.
The petitioners are Caleb C. Magru-
der, clerk of the Court of Appeals, and
other resident taxpayers of Prince
Georges and Anne Arundel counties,
and the court is asked to compel the
roads commission to follow the route
of the old Stage road, leading through
Anne Arundel, in building the new
highway. The petition recites the
fact that the commission is favorable
to the Meadows road to CampaSpring,
and. in fact, has practically awarded
the contract for the work. The
amount of money apportioned for this
road is $74,536.
A majority of officials and taxpayers
of the two counties are said to favor
the Stage road, and appeals for its
selection have been made to the roads
commission without result. This road
is shorter, and it is asserted in the
petition that it will be a greater ad-
vantage to a large number of taxpay-
ers than if the route is diverted. The
petition sets forth that the matter is
one of vital Importance to taxpayers
in general of the two counties.
Furthermore, 1t is asserted that if the
commission is permitted to lay down
routes for highways, regardless of the
wishes of the taxpayers, it@%iil mean
an expensive system of road building,
for which the taxpayers have to bear
the burden.
Judge Brashears has signed a tenn
porary order on the petition. The suit
was filed through City Solicitor Field
of Baltimore, and the other complain
ants, in addition to Mr. Magruder, are
Marion Duckett, Daniel B. Lloyd, John
M. Duvall, Nelson A. Ryon, Charles
M. Gilpin and Allan D. Mallery, all of
Prince Georges county; Cornelius
Jarboe, Luther A. Palmer and James
Cusack, of Anne Arundel.

DR.. TANKIN BROUGHT IN.
Alleged To Have Aided DR.. HenkeI In
Selling Test Questions.


Annapolis.-The board of censors of
the Anne Arundel County Medical So
ciety began an investigation of the
case against Dr. Louis B. HenkeI, Jr..
of Annapolis, who is charged with
supplying test questions and other in
formation in connection with the ex-
aminations conducted by the State
Board of Medical Examiners of candi-
dates for physicians certificates in
1913. The session was held behind
closed doors, and after a ive-hour in
quiry the board adjourned until next
Thursday The charges against DR..
Henkel are based largely upon the
afidavits of DR.. J. w. Barrenburg, of
Baltimore, and DR.. Philip J. Carma-
done, of Conshohocken, Pa. They
were the principal witnesses examined
by the censors. Their testimony was
practically reiteration of their previ-
Gus statements, except that the name
of DR.. Harry J. Tankin, of 119 North
Milton avenue, Baltimore, was linked
with the case. 1t was intimated that
DR.. Tankin acted in conjunction with
the accused physician in supplying
the alleged information to the student
physicians 1t was stated that in
1912, at the time when DR.. Henkel
was member of the examining board,
DR.. Tankin was furnished with the in
formation concerning the nature of the
questions, and that in the following
year Henkel and Tankin worked to-
gether in scheme to aid other candi-
dates.

RURAL TEACHERS.
Complete Their Course At Summer
School.

College Park.-Forty-seven students
attending the summer training school
for rural teachers at the Agricultural
College completed their course Friday.
This new venture on the part of the
Agricultural College has met the en-
thusiastic appreciation of those in at
tendance, and, it is believed, will draw
it much closer to the rural life of
Maryland. The unique feature of this
first session of the summer school has
been the instruction it has offered to
rural teachers in subjects which relate
to agricultural and domestic industries,
such as general farming, fruit grow
ing, gardening, poultry keeping, cook
ing, sewing and household sanitation.
In addition to this instruction a
special series of lectures on methods
of teaching such subjects in the coun-
try school were given by Prof. j. e.
Metzger, director of the summer
school.

Governor Hunt Commutes
Sentences of Two to Life
and Reprieves Four

At almost the last minute before

take from him the power to com,
mute or reprieve without first hav.
ing submitted the case to the board
of pardons and paroles, Governor
Hunt Saturday commuted the SEN
tences of two of the condemned
men at Florence to life imprison.
ment, and granted a reprieve of
four months to the other four. The
four men were to have hung De,
cember 10Th.
Communication of the sentences
of William Campbell and Charles
Schaffer was made on the ground
that their trials in the lower courts
were conducted with undue haste
and that material evidence which
would have resulted in lighter
penalty, was ruled out. Reprieves
were granted Eduardo Perez, N. B.
Chavez, Francisco Rodriguez to al
low the attorney general time to
review their cases. The case of
Miguel Peralta was referred to the
Supreme Court.
In his letter to the attorney gen.
eral asking him to review the cases,
the governor requests that his opin-
ion state whether there exists any
reasonable doubt as to the guilt of
the condemned men, and also if
there are any palliative circum-
stances which would command
modification of the death penalty.
1T is my further request" says the
governor, that special considera-
tion be given to pertinent and i'm
portant phase of the three capital
cases above mentiOned--namely the
fact, that in every instance, the
defendant, Immediately prior to the
commission of the crime, had in
dulged either moderately or ex-
cessively in alcoholic beverages"
On the assumption that the legal
status of drunken man has been
defined by eminent jurists, the gov
ernor requests the attorney general
to include all available citations of
of opinions rendered and precedents
established by competent judicial
officers of this and other countries,
whereby just decision may be
reached affecting the lives of the
