Assistant Attorney-General says
II Goes Beyond Case.

Assistant United states Attorney Gem
cral Frank M. Swacker filed motion pa
pers In the United States District Court
yesterday in which u protest was made
against parts Of Judge Hunts recent
order granting to william Rockefeller
and Lewis Cass Ledyard and ten other
defendants in the New Haven prosecu-
ton bills Of particulars setting forth In
detail tho charges against them.
While conceding that the defendants
were entitled to further particulars on
several points Mr.. Swacker asserted that
Judge Hunt has granted so much that
the Government In complying with his
order would have to reveal every bit OF
Its evidence. The order. Mr.. Swac ker in
sisted, calls for more evidence than tho
Government intends to produce at the
trial itself.

The Loan Market.

The loan market last night testified
TO a considerably increased borrowing
demand This demand was the biggest
and broadcast noted thus far. There was
hardly a stock on the list that could not
he loaned, as one observer described II.
To some extent the borrowing demand
may result from sales for European ac-
count, but II cannot be attributed en-
tirely to that source. There is a de-
mand for stocks that Europe does not
hold at all. or at least only in nominal
amounts and then In an Investment

and with few exceptions news

in tho news columns.
LoNpoN's IMPORTANCE.
While moro news is coming out
Of Petrograd, Berlin, and Paris
than during the early weeks Of tho
war, the London date line Of no
cessity will continue to be most
conspicuous, because it's geograph-
ical and cable position makes It
the chief assembling and distribut-
ing point Of the news Of continental
Europe. In London the Associated
Press maintains a large staff Of
experienced correspondents, many
Of them Americans, working under
instructions to be neutral, So
any criticism Of the American
newspapers in their huge task Of
printing the news Of the European
conflict 10 . criticism Of the Asso.
eiated Press, and therefore unfair.
The newspapers, thru their news
editors, are striving to follow
Woodrow Wilson's advice and re-
main neutral, and with few ex-
captions are succeeding admirably.
They are not sioatirg over victory
Of this or that army. Were those
news editors all powerful, they
would proclaim peace in Europe
before the end Of another day.

President Wilson Says Reference to
Future in Indianapolis Speech Was
Not Meant to Convert Idea He Is
Candidate For Second Term-En-
route home

On board President Wilson'S Train
Pittsburgh, Jan. 9.-President Wilson
was on his way back to Washington
today after making his first purely
political speech since he assumed the
presidency. He will arrive at the
capital at 4:40 p. m.
Gossip was rife about the presidents
meaning of his. statement in his In
dianapolis speech that "there may
come time when the American people
may have to Judge whether I know
what am talking about or not
Some Of his friends insisted that he
referred to the fact that future genera
tions would judge his acts and did not
intend to convey that he would be a
candidate for the presidency again.
Others said that he realized that by
the cheering the construction that had
been placed on his words. and yet he
did not correct the impression beyond
saying, 81 didn't intend to start any
thing then"
The president is returning to Wash
ington prepared to push his govern
ment purchase bill. He said in his
speech that he would do everything
possible to overcome opposition to the
bill.
Mr. Wilson will send to the senate
the nomination of the membership of
the trade commission as soon as pos
sible.
