McCulloch, a detective employed by the Shades were indicted today by the fed eral grand jury Investigating circum- stances surrounding the filing of the suit
 Miss Tanzer is charged with using the mails in an attempt 10 defraud. The Shades and McCulloch sare charged with conspiracy.
 There were nine counts in the indct- ment against Miss Tanzer, each based on letter she was alleged to have writ ten to Mr. Osborne, addressing his as Dear Oliver"

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
 BILL IS DEFEATED

Albany N. Y, April 13-Party lines were cast aside today when the assembly de- feated the Thorn bill, intended to exempt state law requiring physicians to be ex- amined and licensed. The vote was 46 ayes to 79 noes. The bill now is dead.
 Majority Leader Hinman, leading the opposition, said enactment of the bill would imperil public health. inasmuci as it would permit persons to practice heal ing without any state regulation or su- pervision.
 We might just as well repeal the en- tire medical practice act as to enact this bill" MT. Hinman said. Under the law as it now stands, the state has decreed that a person, in order to practice heal ing, must have completed at least Is, years of study and must have fulfilled certain qualifications The Thorn bill would per init persons to practice healing who had no knowledge of our health laws. Its pass age would be a step toward the commer- ciali2ing of religion
 Sponsors for the bill were Assembly, men Thorn and Graves. Both asserted il was the constitutional right of any per son to be treated when i'll in any manner he chose. and that q states had enacted laws exempting Christian science practi- tioners from provisions of statutes gov erning physicians.
 Christian scientists do not wish to be placed in a preferred class, said MT Thorn s.They merely desire to be per mitted legally to practice the tenets o1 their religion as they apply to healing bodily ills.

STATE OFFICIALS
 CONSIDER GERMAN
 MUNITION PROTEST

Washington, April 13.--State depart ment officials were considering today the recent memorandum of the German ambassador. Count Won Bernstorff. on the question of the shipment of food stuffs and the exportation of arms, but no intimation was given as to the char acter of the reply to be made.
 The attitude of the Washington gov ernment on the exportation of arms has been set forth in various state ments from the state department since the outbreak of the war. The posi- ton assumed is that citizens of the United States sell on an equality to n,unition and all classes of contra tand, but do not undertake to deliver these products. Responsibility for de- livery or failure to deliver rests with the naval forces of the belligererts
 The proposal to forbid the exporta- ton of arms is viewed by the Wash irgton government as likely to eihbar- rass the United States in the future for in the event of war it might find the market for arms barred in other lands because of any action taken by the United States during the present struggle.
 Officials feel, too, that if the United States takes the lead in fOrbidding the exportation of arms and amlnuni- ton. weak countries would feel under necessity of maintaining themselves in time of peace on war footing and therefore armaments would be greatly increased.

New York City Hotels

Beginning today, there will appear each Sunday and Wednesday for six months, exclusively in The Age-Herald, list of New York city hotels where our read CTS can obtain accommodations suitable to their purse and inclinations during their stay in the metropolis.
 These ably managed hostelfies cater es- recially to southern patrons, many thou sands of whom visit New York at vari- ous times of the year, and all of our 1eone who have planned, or may plan. visit to New York are requested to refer to these announcements and make their selection before leaving home
 Owing to the European war. many thou- sands Of Americans, who have heretofore spent their vacations abroad, will be obliged to visit other places of interest and amusement and the northern re- sorts will naturally share in the distribu- ton of their patronage. New York city hotels and nearby resorts expect and no doubt will receive a goodly share of this transient trade and the hotel managers will try harder than ever to please and entertain their patrons.

 Makes Plain Opposition
 MT. Brooks made plain his opposition to the Commercial Photographers union, ns at present constituted.
 T will not say that we object to the present officials, but that inference may he drawn he remarked. Thirty years ago our company opposed the union, but Just prior to 1907, when a strike was called. which cost Us s50oo, GOO. the union became rejuvenated, and we made no protest. Then came strike talk and we offered arbitration. On June 20 1907, through the instrumentality of Dr. Neil, commissioner of labor, and participated in by MT. Perham and MT. Konenkamp, then a member of the executive com mittee of the union-S. J. Small was rresdent-an agreement was reached. The very next day a strike was called in San Francisco which eventually spread all over the country Since then we have not cared to employ men interested in the union.
 We cannot deal with an organization like that. as we could do with one headed by man like MT. Perham. or Commis- sioner Garretson,' he said. The witness added he did not consider wages high enough
 Mr. Perham took the stand to explain

CHINESE REBELS
 WILL BE GOOD

New York, April 1S.-The far eastern bureau today announced it had received a dispatch setting forth that several of the leaders in the Chinese counter revolu- ton of 1913, the so-called anti Yuan punitive expedition had cabled the lead ing Chinese vernacular papers declaring their determination not to enlbarrass their country now by revolutionary plans.
 After sketching their former motives and asserting they are mot disposed to interfere with politics of our country if tho people do not desire such interfer- ence,' the signatories conclude
 Our country is now passing through grave crisis. If we can utilize fully the patriotism of our people, better days for China shine brightly on our horizon. We are now all residents in foreign countries and we are powerless to prevent this great crisis. But we will never do anything to endanger the nation and we will be very careful in all our acts.'
