Murder and manslaughter are
crimes which the states attorney has
full power to inquire into, make ar

those guilty are working for the

LUNAcY TRIAL FOR CRITIC OF
HINGES
JUDGES

OOOOEO
If Hadrian H. Baker gets clear of
lunacy charges instigated by judges
of circuit county and municipal
courts, Baker will have to stand trial
for criminal libel, according to reports
in the criminal court building.
Baker was let go from custody of
the county court yesterday on order
of Judge Scully. But he must go to
trial before jury Tuesday when a
verdict is expected on whether he
shall go to state asylum at Kankaee.
Atty Vim. A. Guinea argued in
court for Baker yesterday and said
the main point in the whole case is
whether man has right to speak
the truth about judges and courts. If
what Baker said is not true and is
vicious in its reaction on the judges,
then Baker should be held for GRIM
inal libel rather than lunacy.
81 have as much respect for the jul
dietary as l have for the executive
committee of the teamsters' union,
when they behave themselves, said
Guinea.
Lunacy Commissioners Russell and
Hall were on hand. 1t was stated
they would report on Bakers mental
condition at the jury trial Tuesday.
Guinea remarked:
'The question arises: After the
alienists have made their examina-
ton, who is going to examine the
alienists?"
DR.. Russell took smile for himself
on this. DR.. Hall kept his face SOL
emn and changeless as the front door
of bank.
81 don't understand this case," said
Guinea. 81 want to get at the facts
in it. This man printed criticisms of
judges. do not know whether those
criticisms were true or Iibelous. l
am not able to see, however, the JUS
tice of suddenly arresting this man
and throwing him in Jail for this
offense with the bonds fixed at $685.

Book on Explosives Now
 Issued by National Bureaus.

A Washington dispatch says:-The United States Bureau of Mir es several years ago, issued a prirc on exrlo- sives for coal diners '- lc1 has been in considerable | manC eJer since.
 Now the Ira has is4',d primer on explosive for metal miners and quarrymen, Ly C-...rles <. .-unroe and Clarence Hall. The bulletin. which has just come from the printing offic, says in its introduction: "In accidents re- sulting from the use of explosives in metal mines and quarries in the United States, more than l30 men were killed and 25O seriously injured during the calendar year 1913. Moreover, an un- known number of miners suffered from the effects of breathing the harmful fumes and gases given off by the burn ing or the incomplete explosion of some explosive. Consequently, the Federal Bureau of Mines, which is endeavoring to increase safety in mines and to abolish conditions that tend to impair the health of miners, is studying the kinds of explosives used in mining and conditions under which these explosives can be used with least danger to the miner.
 "Inhammable dust of gas is seldom, if ever, found in quarrries or metal mines, and the danger from using ex- plosives there is less than in coal mines, but, as the figures show, the number of men killed and injured yearly in ac- cidents caused by explosives proves the need of both miners and mine of ficials striving to see that none but proper explosives are used and that these are used properly"
 The bulletin contains chapters on combustion and explosion; blasting and mine explosives; fuse, detonators and electric detonators; firing blasts by electricity; the use of explosives in ex- cavation work; the use of explosives in quarrying; the use of explosives in metal mining and tunneling; drilling and blasting methods on New York rapid-transit tunnel; magazines and thaw houses; permissible explosives, etc.
 This publication is Bulletin 80, and it may be obtained free of charge by those interested writing to the Director of the Bureau of Mines, Washington, D. c.

A warning is being sent out from the east against the purchase of the bonds of foreign countries, the inferance being given that reconstruction of the coun- tries now at war will cause many of them to repudiate every possible obligation. The burdens that will be imposed on the people of all Europe by war will be so staggering that the easiest way out of it would be by repudiation. Should the allies win Germany and Austria would have to meet an indem- nity that would make living in those countries burdensome, and even the neutral countries will have to bear the burden of millions of dollars of new in debtedness without remuneration.

Maxwell Wins Low Speed Test.

A low gear economy test was held last week at Spokane, Washington, under the auspices of the local Auto mobile Show management. Practically every weIl-known make of car was en- tered in the contest and great deal of public interest was aroused by the Automobile Show managers. The only condition imposed upon an entry of a car was that it should be stock model.
 The competition was to decide which car could run farthest in low gear on quart of gasoline. A course was laid out which every driver had to follow, so that no machine could take advantage of favorable grades. The machines were started off two at time at one minute intervals, after the manner of the big races. After all machines had gotten away from the starting point the trace" was on.
 When every machine had given its few last gasps and then finally "died' from lack of gasoline, it was found that a Maxwell car stood undisputed econo- my champion having made the aston ishing record of four miles and seventy five yards on but one quarter of a gal lon of gasoline all on low gear. That makes the almost incredible aver age of over sixteen miles to the gallon on low gear. It seems very probable that long-distance records would have been broken had the contest been for high gear work, as this would have meant run of approximately forty seven miles on a gallon.

without limitation or impairment by
orders in council or other municipal
legislation by the British government
and. will not recognize the validity OF
prize court proceedings taken under
restraint imposed by British munich
pal law in derogation Of the rights OF
Americans under international law"
Although Secretary Lansing declar-
ed the caveat was filed merely to pro-
tect Americans. general rights in prize
court cases, the impression prevailed
that recent conferences with Chicago
packers, in connection with the Brit
ish detention of 81 meat cargoes.
bound for neutral ports, we're largely
responsible for IT,
Regardless OF the communication
origin. Il was considered one Of the
strongest and cleanest cut definitions
of the American attitude toward Brit
ish prize court measures yet enun-
ciated by this government.
Not only does IL bear on prize court
procedure relating TO meat cargoes,
but also on the cases OF cotton ships
also held for prize court decisions
Though the German situation was
not forgotten, the departments action
in Connection with prize court proceed
ure temporarily overshadowed the
other issue today. This was partly
due TO the fact that no definite action
on the German note was expected be-
fore the President returns to Wash
ington next week.
