PRISONER ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
Stephen Martin Tries Hanging to Es
Cape Prison Sentence

Burlington, April l6-Siephen
Martin. the man who figured in a
sensational attempt TO escape from
Deputy Sherif Todd Wednesday af-
ternoon when he Nas being led from
the Chittenden county court house to
the Jail and who was captured by
Jospeh Agel after lively sprint,
was started for the states prison
this morning where he is TO serve
not less than two or more than three
years for breaking Jail some months
age.
Martin. however tried another
way to escape serving his prison
sentence by making an attempt at
suicide by hanging. He was discoy-
cred In time and cut down. II was
not long before he was as well as
ever.
When Martin was put back in his
cell after his dash for liberty Il was
thought he had been thoroughly sub.
dued but It was not long before
commotion was heard coming from
the cell and those who hurried to the
door saw Martin hanging from the
end OF cord the other end being
fastened to the top bunk.
The Tailor was summoned and the
man was cut down He was revived
in short order although he was black
in the face from the choking he re-
ceived. This last experience made
Martin penitent and he gave the Off
ers no further trouble. In default Of
rope to hang himself with he had
used his necktie and when he found
that he was really hanging he be-
came scared and made a noise which
resulted in his rescue.

BILL To AMEND
THE SHERMAN LAW
Restraint I'm Any Degree" lille
gal Under Stanley Measure.
AB0LlSHES "RULE0F REASON"
Kentucky Congressman Introduces
Antitrust Amendment After a
Conference With Presi-
dent

n.-Representative Stan
ley, of Kentucky, after a conference
with President Wilson, introduced an
amendment to the Sherman law, which
would make illegal the monopoliza-
ton or restraint of trade '1n any de-
gree" 1t is designed to eliminate the
rule of reason" laid down by the SUI
preme Court In the Standard Oil case.
The amendment also would invest
the circuit courts of the United States
with Jurisdiction to restrain and pre-
vent violations of the act, irrespective
of the Attorney-General. 1t was drawn
to meet the wish of the President, ex-
pressed in his last message to Con-
gress, to reduce the debatable area sur
rounding the Sherman act. Represen-
tative Stanley discussed the measure
with the President and previously had
corresponded with him at length on
the subject
The Kentucky Congressman, who
was chairman of the special committee
which investigated the United States
Steel Corporation, does not offer the
measure as an Administration amend
ment, but believes it will be of service
to the committees of Congress which
will draft the antitrust legislation.
Would Amend Two Sections.
The Stanley bill would amend the
second and fourth sections of the Sher-
man law. In Section 2, into which the
Supreme Court injected the rule of
reason" the words lin any degree" are
inserted, so that the section would
read:
Every person who shall monopolize
or attempt to monopolize or combine
or conspire with any other person or
persons to monopolize in any degree
any part of the trade or commerce
among the several States, or with
foreign nations, shall be deemed guilty
of misdemeanor, and on conviction
thereof shall be punished by fine not
exceeding $4,000 or by Imprisonment
not exceeding one year, or by both
said punishments, in the discretion of
the court"
Discussing that portion of Chief
Justice Whites decision which relates
to unreasonable restraint of trade,
Representative Stanley said that he
had always regarded it as unnecessary
to the decision and, therefore not the
law.
MANY, however, believe" he con-
tinued, that the effect of this decision
is to render illegal only such combina-
lions in restraint of trade as are I'M
reasonable. The insertion of the
words lin any degree" with the other
provisions will save the law as amend
ed from any such Interpretation and
will render all restraints of trade il
legal.

UNCLE SAM AS
FARMERS AGENT
Unique Bill Introduced BY Sena-
tor B0rah.
PROPOSES CLEARING HOUSE
Says Trusts Have Done More For the
Farmer Than the Government.
Calls Competition Mother
OF Waste

Washington. A popular govern
ment institution for the scientific mar
keting of farm products, to be known
as the Agricultural Capital, to be sepa-
rate from any existing branch of the
government, was proposed in bill
by Senator Borah.
Designed primarily to eliminate mid
dlemen and reduce the cost of living,
TO arrange transportation facilities and
otherwise improve conditions of the
farmers and consumers, the bill
aroused considerable interest among
senators by its radical suggestions,
and was referred to the Agricultural
Committee.
The institution would be controlled
by board of Is directors 1t would
be made up Of county organizations
requiring at least so farmers in each
county to form a branch association,
each to conduct the marketing of all
the crops of its members under rules
and regulations to be drawn by the
general board, which would be elected
by the individual members every five
years.
Earnings in excess of expenses,
when it should become self-sustaining,
and 8 per cent. would be returned pro
rata to the members. Each branch or
ganization would be controlled by a
board of trustees and a general direct
or and would serve not only as a
clearinghouse for marketing and
standardizing the farmers products,
but would also be authorized to loan
capital to its members and to assist in
the production of crops.
Senator Borah explained that he had
not written the measure, but had intro
duced, it together with a memorial at
the request of E. H. Rettig, a farmer
Of Opportunity, Washington.
In the memorial Rettig submitted
that farmers were neglected by the
government and he made the declara-
ton that the big trusts had done more
good for the public than the govern
ment.
Asserting that competition is the
mother of waste, Mr.. Rettig said: 1.-THE
law of business success is CO.
operative.
Think of the stupidity of our ma
tional government" he continued, zen
couraging its citizens to produce
wealth and after 1t has been produced
insisting on these same citizens con-
testing against each other for pos
session of the things they have pro-
duced
