MOVIE CRITICISM
Anglers MARSHALL
Vice-President Threatens Sup
preston of Pictures When
Senate Tempest Subsidies.
Iron The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, Oct. l0.-A small tenn
pest was raised in the Senate to-day
over moving pictures taken in the
chamber yesterday. The chief figures
in the controversy were Senator over
man, chairman of the Rules Committee,
and the Vice President.
Senator Overman criticised the VICE
President for apparently giving per-
mission for the pictures to be made.
The fact that the Vice-President and
three members of the Rules Committee
were conspicuously within the radius
of the camera added to the delicacy of
the situation.
c. p. Higgins, the sergeant-at- arms
of the Senate, was called TO the bar 10
explain, and said that he had been IN
formed by the secretary of the vice
President that the VicePresident had
thought that there was no objection TO
having the pictures taken.
IL take this to be an attempt to
criticise the chair without any notice,
said the Vice-President, with evident
feeling "The chair takes it as a pub
lie criticism. Under the circumstances
notice will be given that the pictures
are not TO be used"
After the discussion was closed Sen
ator Overman said he was convinced
that permission had been granted by
mistake. and that he had not intended
to reflect upon the VicePresident. AMI
mosities were buried, and, 1t IS under
stood, permission was given for dis
playing the pictures.

ACTS DEFENDED
BY MOSKOWITZ
Municipal Civil Service Head
LaudS Commission and
It's Works.

DR.. Henry Moskowitz, president Of
the Municipal Civil Service Commits
sion, defended his administration at
meeting last night, held under the au..
spices of the Academy OF Arts and
Sciences at the Brooklyn Academy Of
Music.
DR.. Moskowtz said it was out of the
question to ask the Civil Service Com
mission to be responsible for the moral
characters of civil service appointees
without Investigators. The Police and
Fire departments, he said, should be
looked after by Investigators. Practi-
cal tests and competitive appoint
ments, he said he believed in, but these
should be conducted other than by an
appointive power. AS to the trials of
civil service employees, he said he did
not believe that department heads
should be judiciary. There should be
a trial board 20 hear charges" he said.
He ended by saying that the time
has changed since city employe would
60 to q political leader to tell his
troubles Instead, he could come to
the commission. and it would accord
him every consideration.

ELECTION NOT TO
HALT STATE PROBE
Civil Service Head Denies Plot
TO Club Mitchell Into Sup
porting Glynn.

President Neu Of the State Civil
Service Commission. which rs lnvestl-
eating the work of the Municipal Com
mission. yesterday announced that the
local board will not be put on trial un-
less the inquiry proves the board has
misused its power.
II am president of the court which
is conducting this investigation said
President Neu, land should the evl-
dence warrant such future action l
shall sit in judgment at a trial of the
local commission. ! Will not say at
this time whether the complaints yet
unrevealed are as serious as those
which have already been heard. But
YOU can rest assured that, election or
no election, we are going on with TINS
probe to the very end.
The state commission has been ac-
cused of playing Tammany politics to
discredit the Mitchell administration,
and | suppose the report that we are
trying to practically club the Mayor OF
New York into support OF Governor
Glvnn and the rest of the Democratic
ticket emanates from the same unre-
liable source. Nothing can call off this
investigation, and from what ! can
learn Of the matter before us we can
not finish the probe before the state
election"
"Do you think the Mayor will sup
port Governor Glynn," President Neu
was asked.
mayor Mitchell is a Democrat. and 1t
is reasonable to suppose he will sup
port the Democratic ticket" was the
reply, "but you'll have to ask the Mayor
that question"

u. S. GOODS SAFE
In NEUTRAL SHIPS
No impeachment to Trade in Nom
COntraband Articles, Even
with BelligerentS.

Washington, Oct. 10.-Contlnuing its
policy of forging out complete code
for regulation of shipments of Ameri-
can products, not only to neutral but TO
belligerent countries, the State Depart
ment to-day announced decision relat-
ing to exports of cottonseed oil. The
decision marks distinct advance in
the exemption of semi
goods from seizure when carried in
American bottoms.
This declaration is that American
trade in cottonseed oil in neutral bot
toms is not subject to seizure or deten-
ton, not only when destined for neu-
trail countries, but when shipped to
Germany, If not intended for military
uses. The British government has as
scented to so much of the proposition as
relates TO shipments to Holland of neu-
trail goods, such as foodstdffs which
the Netherlands government has EN-
bargoed for expectation.
The solicitors opinion goes beyond
the mere matter of cottonseed oil and
lays down the principle that cotton Is
non-contraband and is not subject TO
seizure even when shipped to bellig-
elent country. providing it is on Amer-
can or other neutral ships. Therefore.
there is no impeachment to the shipment
of American cotton to Hamburg con-
signed to German spinners.

ARCHDUKE'S DEATH
LAID TO RUSSIA
Austrian Vice-Consul Says
Desire to Annex Prov
inces Was War Cause.

Ludwig Won Kleinwaechter. vice-con-
sui Of Austria Hungary here, spoke
on the war from the view point OF his
country last night at the Liberal Cluo'
He asserted that the murder OF Arcn-
duke Ferdinand and his wife was in
spired by Russia.
"The real and fundamental reasons
for the war between Austria-Hungary
and Russia" he said, ARE not the
Servan question, nor the Balkan COM
plication, but rather the determination
of Russia TO annex two important Aus
trian provinces lying on her border
licia and Bukowina -besides a small
part Of northern Hungary.
Serious political considerations are
chiefly urging on Russia the annexation
of the neighboring provinces. The ma
tives of Southwestern Russia, Eastern
Galicia, parts of Bukowina and linn
tied area of Upper Hungary are the
Ruthenian or Ukrainian people. There
are about 35,OOO,000 of them in all, of
which 30.0OO,O00 are Russian subjects,
the remaining 100000 being Austrians
and Hungarian citizens.
"The Ukranian edition of the Bible
which, after it had been suppressed in
Russia, was undertaken by the British
Bible Society, has been and still is con,
sidered a revolutionary publication and
its circulation is prohibited by Russia
"The Ukranian's lot in Austria IS
Just the reverse. The aim OF the Rus
sian agitation is to convince the
Ukranians that they are but an Off
shoot of the Russian people, and that
their language is but dialect OF the
Russian language.
ITO win the Ukranians in the Aus
trian provinces for the Russian faith,
they offered free education 70 young
Austro- Ukranians in Russian converts
or theological colleges, where these
students wer to be ordained as priests
of the Russian Orthodox Church and
then sent back to Austria as mission
aries.
at has been ascertained beyond a
doubt that the assassination of the
Austrian heir to the throne and his
wife was carried out under Russian in
spiration and with Russia's moral and
material support"

SPOONER SHORTAGE
$4,000, IS BELIEF
Suicide Offered Him a
$4,000 Auto as Bride,
Says Company Head.

1t was estimated by bank examiners
yesterday who are going over the books
of Allen Spooner, manager of the loan
department of the Eagle Savings and
Loan Company, of Brooklyn, who com
mitted suicide in Lakewood, n. j., that
the shortage in his accounts would
amount to $4,000 Spooner faced an
indictment for defaultng s420 from
the company when he shot himself.
Emile Renner, of 69l East 14th St,
Brooklyn, chairman of the committee
of shareholders OF the Eagle com
pany. said yesterday that Spooner COM
mitted suicide because of the fear of
exposure in suit brought against
Renner by the loan company on a
mortgage foreclosure. The case was
heard before referee and decided
against Renner, and was soon TO come
up for argument in the Supreme Court.
Spooner was a witness at the hearings
before the referee, Renner said. and at
that time offered him his $4,000 auto
mobile as bride if he would not
prosecute him.
Spooner's method of stealing, Rem
ner said. was to take money supposed
10 be paid for tax assessments. holding
a part of the money paid TO the COM
pany and changing his books to cover
the shortage.
Mrs. Spooner was Frustrated in her
rooms. at the Hotel Bossert, yester-
day. Tie District Attorney is con-
WINGED that she knew nothing about
her husbands populations. She told
the authorities that she had trusted
him implicitly and that he had account
ed for the extra money he had by tell
ing her he was interested in success
full real estate speculations. Before
Spooner disappeared he told the Off
GERS of the loan company that he was
suffering from walking typhoid"
