cry Co. ASSaiIS Wilson
Nominee for Justice.

WASHINGTON, Feb 16.- Two
witnesses charged Louis d. Brandeis
with unprofessional conduct Tues
day before the judiciary sub-com-
mittee Of the senate, which is in
vestigating his fitness for confrma-
ton as a Justice Of the supreme
court of the United States. They
were Sidney Winslow. president Of

Charles :. Menen. former president
Of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad. declaring that he
knew nothing against Mr. Brandeis
about which he could testify under

pear in connection with charges

the New York and New England
railroad which later became a part
Of the New Haven system
Il am not at all unfriendly TO Mr.
Brandeis and l know nothing about
his career except hearsay," saiu AIr.
Mellen in his telegram. Republican
members think he should be called.

the question remain open until the
investigation had further pro-
| crossed.

MUCH MONEY GOING
TO CAMPAIGN FUND.-
Check for $4,000 Win Be Sent This
Week to New York, Making
Total $4,000.

1t was stated yesterday at the head
quarters of the local subcommittee
of the National Democratic Commit
tee that third check, this time for
$4,000, would be sent to the treasurer
of the Woodrow Wilson campaign
fund before the end of the week.
From all the sources being tapped by
the Richmond committee money is
coming in to the satisfaction of Secre-
tary George w. Rogers and the other
members.
A letter has been received from the
pauonal headquarters urgently re-
questing the committee here to send
forward all the money possible. There
are many demands for funds in the
conduct Of the campaign. and the ma
tonal finance committee must have
the money collected by the local COM
mittees as fast as II is gathered.
Prospects indicate that the $40, 900
wanted here will be realized in a
short time. and 1t is likely that the
total collected will exceed the figure
set by teh committee. Some large
sums are being sent in. but it is the
small contributions from the general
public that the campaign workers are
depending on.
Secretary Rogers stated yesterday
that about $500 had been contributed
by the per diem employees Of the city
and he said that this was an excel
lent result from that source OF this
amount $40 WAS received from the
street cleaning department

OPINION ENTIRELY
Of ADVISORY NATURE
Commissioner Peters Makes Reply to
Judge Digs On Question of
''Soft Drink" Notice.

J. Sidney Peters, prohibition com
missioner. when asked yesterday II
he had any comment on the publica-
ton of letter appearing In The
Richmond virginian yesterday from
Judge j. Singleton Diggs, stated that
he did. since anything that Judge
Digs propounded was Of interest. and
hts high character entitled him &c
consideration and reply. He said
that Judge Digs article, under
analysis. showed, first, an objection to
the advice OF the commissioner con-
corning notice by applicants for
license to sell soft drinks. and the
predicament in which druggists and
others required to take out licenses
under the prohibition law on and
after November l were placed In view
OF the fact that many of the courts do
not meet on November / or during
the entire month of November
In response to inquiries that have
come to the commissioner about
notices by applicants for soft drink
licenses. Mr.. Peters has always gone
over the matter very fully, showing
each inquirer that the statute did not
specify any notice. but that 1t did
in court and contest the granting of
licenses, And in view of the latter
consideration, he thought the public
was entitled TO notice, and II entitled
to notice, he would suggest the
notice prescribed in the law for drug
gists, hotel keepers, etc, which was
thirty days posted notice at the front
door of the place of business and
three consecutive weekly publications
OF the same in a local newspaper. Mr.,
Peters said that he had taken pains
In every instance TO impress upon
inquirers In person and Ssy mail, that
THE was purely advisory on hts part,
and that while he had no way of
knowing whether the courts through
out the state would require notice, and
If so what kind of notice they would
require. he desired to give advice OF
notice that should be sufficient before
any court Mr. Peters further ex-
pressed the hope that all of the courts
would he reasonable with bona fide
and blished soda fountain people,
and he trusted no hardship would be-
fall any such.
Mr.. Peters said that Judge Diggs'
suggestion about the predicament OF
the druggists and others in localities,
where no courts were held in the
m onth of November was a very peril
nent one, but he desired to assure all
parties concerned that he and the
auditor of public accounts, and the
attorney general, had the matter in
mind, and were doing their utmost to
devise some plan that would prevent
EN- barrassment and hardship to any
bona fde druggist and that before
November some statement would be
issue concerning this matter.

Tighter LAWS
ON TICKY CATTLE
INTERSTATE SHIPMENTS WITHIN
THE QUARANTINED AREA AT
FECTED BY CHANGES IN FEEDER
AL REGULATIONS.

Washington, June 24.-Hereafter cat
tie not intended for immediate slaugh-
ter can not be moved from one state
to another within the area guaranteed
on account of the cattle tick, unless
they are accompanied by a certificate
of federal inspection or dipping. In the
case of cattle intended for slaughter
previous permission must be obtained
from The proper authorities Of the
state into which the shipment is to be
made before they can be shipped.
These requirements are laid down in
new regulations of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture which becomes eff
fective July l. They have been rem
dered advisable, it is explained, by the
rapid extension work of tick eradi-
cation and by the movement to make
this work state instead of a county
matter. The free areas which now eX-
list in all of the tick-infested states
must be protected from reinfectiOn
and in those sections where eradica-
ton work is now in progress or about
to be undertaken, the importation Of
ticky cattle is regarded as underlsa-
Bile. State regulations similar to this
have been in effect in Georgia, Ala
bama, Mississippi and Oklahoma for
some time, the position Of these states
being that they already have all the
cattle ticks they can afford to eradi-
icate and do not care to import any
from outside.
Another change in the regulations
requires all cattle shipped interstate
from the area quarantined for scabies
to be accompanied by a certificate of
federal inspection or dipping. Heheto-
fore such cattle have been allowed
to go our uninspected, provided the
care were placarded "Uninspected
Clean Cattle" and "Uninspected Elk
posed Cattle" as the case might be.
The area under quarantine for scabies
has been so greatly reduced by eradl-
cation work, however, that it is now
possible to inspect all stock shipped
from it and the former privilege Of
shipping without inspection is regard
ed as no longer necessary.
Still another change provides that
swine shipped interstate for any pur-
pose except immediate slaughter must
have cleaned and disinfected cars. The
object of this regulation is to provide
an additional safeguard against the
spread of hog cholera to breeding or
feeding herds.

GREECE MAKES PROTESTS
AGAINST ENTENTE ACTION

Washington, June 22.-An Identical
note protesting vigorously against in
reference by the entente allies with
the maratime trade of Greece has been
presented by the Greek minister to the
state department and the diplomatic
representatives here of the Latin
American government. 1t asserts that
traditional principles have been vio-
lated, and that Greece mas been I'M
able to obtain any official explanation
in response to inquiries.
Since June 6, the note asserts, the
Greek coast has been subjected to
limited blockade, ships being held
up and searched and taken to naval
bases established by the allied forces.
Various vessels flying the Greek flag,
it is stated, have been taken to Bier
ia and there converted into transports
by the allies.
AS a result, it is declared, Greece's
food supplies have been cut off and
her maritime commerce. "the es-
sential of her national economy"
stopped.
