QUICK PUNISHMENT FOR .sgv us
DETECTIVES SLAYER

Philadelphia, April 6.-Jacob Miller,
the young thief who shot and killed
Detective James Namely on March 25,
will be put on trial this week. The fell
low detectives of Namely and of Har-
ry Tucket, who was fatally shot at the
same time Namely was killed, are de-
termined to railroad the youth to the
electric chair Shorn of his bravado,
the young murderer has broken down
completely and is physical wreck In
the attitude of the detectives there is
something more than a desire to
avenge. They feel that IL Miller es-
capes capital punishment, it will be an
encouragement to other gunner who
think lightly of flashing their revol-
vers.
Miller was being escorted to the po-
lice station on the night of March 25 by
Namely and Tucker, when he tricked
his captors into permitting him mo-
ment's freedom. He quickly drew an
automatic revolver and sent three bull

TRAFFIC MEN DISCUSS NEW LAW.

\
Memphis, Tenn, April IA lively
discussion OF the new Cummings law
which changes the present interstate
commerce rule regarding bills of lad
ing began here today at the meeting
of the executive committee of the Ma
tional Industrial Traffic League. 1t
was claimed that the new law contain
ed a joker, inasmuch as shippers
would be obliged to pay an advance In
rates to meet with its provisions. This
ten percent advance, it was claimed,
would net the railroads of the coun-
try 5000, 000, 900 In additional revenue
The new law becomes effective ii
June
The uniform bill of lading drawn by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
allows the railroads to make two
charges for limited and unlimited liza
bility, the latter being 10 per cent high
er than the former. 1t is contended
that the Cummings law prohibits the
railroads from limiting liabilities to
less than the actual loss to a shipper.
This. it is claimed, does away with the
limited liability clause and leaves the
higher rate as the only alternative.
The country's traffic is estimated at
$4,000, 100000, of which e5 per cent
moves under the limited liability
clause.

CONTROVERSY

Washington. d. c., April THE en-
tire Interstate Commerce Commission
will sit today to hear the arguments
of the railroads and their opponents
in the "split ticket" controversy,
which affects the use of mileage in
traffic north and south on the eastern
railroads. The southern lines have
maintained mileage book arrange
ments with northern lines for through
passenger traffic, which, 1t is claimed
by northern lines, is not in compliance
with the commission rulings. The
Pennsylvania road demanded the with
drawal of the interchangeable mileage
arrangement, and many boards of trade
have protested.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK
FOR EVERYBODY
THE N. X. FAIRsANk COMPANY
SHOWS FAITH IN NEWSPAPER
ADVERTISING.

The Gold Dust Twins, those nimble
sprites that have won their way into
so many households and into the
hearts of so many housewives, in addi-
ton to their usual occupation of max
ing this a cleaner and brighter world,
have started with fine spirit and COM
mendable enthusiasm upon the work
of spreading confidence in the stabili-
t. of American institutions.
Not satisfied with Frightening mate
rial things, the Twins propose to
make the future bright, and they are
going about it in a very direct and
practical way.
This new enterprise on the part Of
the celebrated Twins takes the form
Of an extensive newspaper advertising
campaign by the N. K. Fairbanks
Company, of Chicago.
From Maine to California, from
Wisconsin to Florida, and from Wash
ington to Texas, the Gold Dust Twins
are going to fill engagements, carrying
on one of the greatest educational
campaigns ever undertaken in news
paper advertising.
Gold Dust advertising is to be mush
more general this spring than it has
ever been before. In this respect 1t
may be accepted as evidence of the
Fairbank Company's conviction that
the women of this country are imbued
with the desire to continue their prog
ress in good housekeeping.
In a larger and broader sense, 1t
may be regarded as this company's
faith in American institutions. No
better evidence of the value of news
paper advertising has ever been pre-
sented than is to be fouid In this ex-
traordinary, extensive newspaper ad-
yertising.
1t was in newspapers that the first
advertising of Gold Dust was done.
For years the famous Twins have been
Frightening newspaper pages with
their good humor and their interesting
exploits. The results of that advertis.
ing are responsible for the record
breaking campaign which is begin
ming.

DANIELS TO MAKE USE OF
 INVENTIVE GENIUS OF NATION
In Developing Structural Strength
 and Efficiency of the Navy.

Washington, Nov. 24. = Changes within the navy department whereby Secretary Daniels proposes to make use of the inventive genius of the na- tion, advanced another step today with the appointment of Captain w. s. Smith, now engineer officer at the Philadelphia yard, to a post in Wash ington which the Secretary described as clearing house for suggestions.
 Captain Smith will receive all com munications dealing with proposed CT for consideration by the particular the useless ones and sort the remaind- bureau to which they naturally would be referred. He will be attached to all three engineer bureaus, con- struction and repair, steam engineer in gand ordnance, as special aid to assist in studying the mass of sugges- tions with which the department has been flooded since the outbreak of the European war turned the attention of aviators generally to warlike instru- ments.
 A thousand such suggestions have been studied by the bureaus during the last year, the work impeding them intheir regular duties Those of most promise will be taken up in order of importance with the civilian advisory board recently created with Thomas A. Edison as chairman. Where the germ of a real idea is dis closed. the bureaus and the board will cooperate in an effort to give it practical value to the navy.
 In addition to this the board will initiate suggestions of its own to bet ter the mechanical equipment of navy ships.

GREAT BRITAIN ADHERES TO
 SOUND FINANCIAL METHODS,
Lord lnehcape Says Amount of Money
 Yet to Be Raised is Enormous.

London. Nov. 24. 9.25 p. m.-"In raising money for the war, the govern ment has resisted all temptations to unsound methods" said Lord Inchcape tonight in his inaugural address as president of the Institute of Bankers. Whether we can continue in the paths of financial rectitude depends on how far the people respond to the urgent demands of thrift and economy.
 "The amounts still to be raised for ourselves and our allies are enormous. We may be able to borrow a portion abroad, but the remainder must come out of the nations savings. Any other course would involve us in imitation and consequent rise in price, but am sanguine that the nation will make the heavy sacrifices necessary
 Very different, said Lord Inchcape, had been the financial policy of Ger many, which was criticized by "reck- lessness and improvidence." None of the money required for the war had been raised by increased taxation; :; each successive loan meant fresh in- dation of the currency resulting in a steady and sustained rise in prices. The more this procedure was persisted In. the more would prices rise; all at- temptS to fix maximum prices would prove powerless to meet the situation. The task of redeemtng the securities and retiring the notes would be left for an exhausted and defeated nation 10 face after the conclusion of peace.
