 Schmidt was unmoved when he was called upon to stand up and receive his sentence and he looked unt1inch- ingly at the judge while the latter passed the sentence of death upon him.
 of Schmidt has cost the defense more than $2O,00O, which had been sub scribed by many people who believe the priest insane and not responsible for his crime. The first trial cost $15, 1000 and was mostly spent for alienists and attorneys. Many women contributed to the funds, and the mur- derer's cell at The Tombs has been constantly filled with candy and flow CTS contributed by women.
 The attorneys for the defense serv- ed notice of appeal and the case will go to the highest courts in the state. The aged father and 1no:ner of the priest, who travelled here from Ger many to try to save their son, were lead from the court room weeping.

 Congressman Underwood was fore ed to defend the bill against the at tacks of Congressman Brunette, of Pennsylvania, Congressman Galloway of Texas, and Representative Hard wick, of Georgia, all of whom made d most determined effort to defeat the measure.
 Underwood, in reply to rapid fire of questions from opponents of the bill, said that he was opposed to the government ownership and operation of railroads in the states. but that it was necessary in Alaska, as no pri- vate corporation was justified in building under the present conditions in the north

 Congressman Mann said that the leasing plan was in the interest of the Guggenheim syndicate, as they were the only one in a position to bid, having control of the steamship lines of the North Pacific and the fu- kon river boats, besides being the largest shippers through the compan- ies they owned or controlled, and could prevent opposition and there fore he wanted the president to have his opinion it was best to do so.
 The Guggenheim interests are be lieved to be working to sell the Cor dova road to the government and now that the opposition has become for midable they wish to amend the bill so as to keep the control of Alaska transportation in the hands of the syndicate. even if they are unable to rid themselves of the expensive road

UNDERWOOD FIGHTS FOR ALASKA BILL;
 CONGRESSMAN HOUSTON IS ON THE JOB

WASHINGTON, Feb. Econ gressman Underwood lead the fight yesterday afternoon in the House of Representatives in favor of passing the Chamberlain Alaska railroad bill, and urged the members to pay no attention to the cry of Socialism.
 ''The cry is an old one" said the Democratic leader, and has been raised against eery measure by which the goernment has endeavored to help the people It is the cry of the monopolists against the demands of the people and is used to frighten away the timid.
 Every railroad needs government aid in some form or other, and in many instances land valued at many has been given to tue promoters of large railroad enterprises. It is much better to build the road by govern ment aid than to give away the pub lie domain, which is the rightful heritage of the people"
 Congressman Paine. a Democratic member of the House, was equally as strong in opposition to the bill and said it was the most radical and So cialistic doctrine the Democrats had ever attempted and would only tend to injure the party in the states '
