that doctors and nurses put forth

woman in her best age, with q
large and growing family and
devoted husband should be called
away from it all just AZ 1t seems
that she was most needed, but
then who knows what is best.

DEFENDS HIS POSITION.
Representative Quinn Of Missis-
sippi, member of the house military
committee, recently converted by
Wilson to the preparedness program,
defended his position from attack by
a dozen anti-preparedness democrats
and republicans today. Quinn said
the president had more information
on the problem than any member of
congress and supported him also be-
cause of the danger of Roosevelt be-
ing the republican nominee.
The annual rivers and harbors bin
was completed In committee of the
house today, except for final decision
on an appropriation for East River
channel of New York harbor, which is
especially urged by President Wilson
for the benefit of the Brooklyn navy
yard. 1t carries a total expenditure
of forty million dollars. The largest
item is more than six and half mill
lion for the Mississippi.
GARRISON'S SUCCESSOR.
No message reached the White
House today from President Wilson,
who is aboard the Mayflower cruising
on the Chesapeake, as to his choice
of a successor to Secretary Garrison
Among those familiar with the pres
ident's views the impression prevail
ed that unless he goes outside high
official circles he will name Secretary
OF Interior Lane, Secretary of Agri-
culture Houston, Assistant Secretary
Of the Navy Roosevelt or Councillor
Polk of the state department.
Word reaching the White House
today indicates that more than forty
representatives who opposed CARR
sons continental army plan are ready
to support the presidents defense
plans.

vember "a, 1916 (regarding an inves-
tigaticn of allegations that atroci-
ties had been committed in Belgium
by Germans), did not reach Cardinal
Won Hartmann, archbishop of Co
logne, until January 7, which ex-
plains why it has no been answered.
The general impression prevailing in
Germany, however, is that the letter
was inspired entirely by Cardinal
MERCER, whose intransigeant atti-
tude toward the German authorities
became manifest on various occasions.
Before the war Cardinal Mercier
was an influential Belgian politician.
For example, at the time of King
Leopold's death he sided publicly with
the party in favor of colonial expan-
sion in the notorious Congo affair,
demanding an increase In the Belgian
army. After the occupation Of Bel
GUM by German forces, the cardi-
nal preserved a similar attitude; US
ing the influence of the clergy for
agitation of a purely political ma
ture.
At the time of the great Anglo
French offensive the cardinal order
ed that in all Belgian churches in the
occupied territory prayers be said for
the victory of the entente forces. At
the same time on st. Michael's day
he published a pastoral letter com
pairing the present war with the
struggle between st. Michael, the
patron saint of Brussels, and Lucifer.
suggesting in transparent fashion
that he did not compare Germany
with the angel.
an another pastoral letter, the
cardinal said the Germans possessed
no legitimate authority and had no
claim to the esteem of Belgians, who
owed affection and obedience only TO
their king.
During religious ceremonials in
the fall Cardinal Mercier declared to
Belgian priests assembled in the Ma
lines seminary that they were all
obliged to offer the greatest posi-
bic resistance to the Germans.
"In competent German circles, it is
pointed out in the appendix to the let
ter of the Belgian clergy inspired by
Cardinal Mercier, it is stated that an
Austrian priest made investigation in
Belgium which had disastrous results
for Germany. However Cardinal
Piffl, archbishop Of Vienna declares
publicly and formally that he never
authorized any priest to make such
investigations"

JURY FINDS 4 NOT
GUILTY VERDICT IN
THE WILKINS CASE
CONSIDERED THE EVIDENCE
BUT NINE MINUTES BEFORE
RETURNING VERDICT - LOF-
TIN CONTINUE PROSECUTION.

Walker Wilkins, charged with SELL
ing liquor in connection with ser
vice club, was given q trial in the
court Of record yesterday and ac-
Quilted. IL required the jury only
nine minutes In which to reach this
conclusion. The jury was composed
of H. H. Dewitt, T. Burns, r. Ed
dins, Abe Daniels, w. w. Bettsworth
and Quinton BorrRs.
Six witnesses were heard, all Of
them for the state. All of them tes-
tilted to buying liquor from Wilkins,
or at least giving him money and
procuring the liquor. The defendant
entered q plea Of not guilty, but In
troduced no evidence In his behalf nor
did he take the stand himself.
VIII Continue Prosecutions.
Despite the verdict In the case of
Yesterday, as well as several proceed
ing It, Solicitor Loftin last night de-
clared that he would continue to
prosecute the violators OF the liquor
laws. 'T WIN continue TO prosecute
all persons brought before the court
Of record charged with the Illegal
ssle Of liquors or violation of the
Davis law and present the evidence
to the juries-
"Under the law a person can go
into q restaurant or so-caIled service
club and have the proprietor send out
and buy liquor for him and either
serve the liquor there or store it for
future use, or a person can buy liquor
from a legitimate dealer and send it
to q service club and have it stored
for future use. When either of these
courses is pursued there is no viola
ton of the law. There is no law pro-
hibiting O club doing business in this
way staying open all night or on Sun
DAVIS. The law is violated when the
proprietor of a service club sells
liquor to a person when such person
has no liquor stored in such place. In
other words, IL person goes into a
service club and gets liquor when he
has no stock on hand and the pro-
prietor furnishes the liquor and re-
ceives money therefore, the proprie-
tor is guilty of the Illegal sale of
liquor"
