MOORE FILES DEMURRER
TO WOODs's Petition
Legal Steps Arc Taken to Bring
Salary Question Before
Supreme Court.
TWO CONSTITUTIONAL POINTS
Question Is as to Right of General
Assembly to Increase Pay Of Ex-
ecutive Officer During His Term
of Office.

State Auditor Moore. through Attor-
ney-General Pollard. yesterday filed r
demurrer to the petition Of James B.
tiary. asking for a mandamus to COM
pei the auditor to pay over to him the
salary increase voted him by the last
General Assembly.
The proce edings were instituted By
Mr.. Wood for the purpose of securing
Supreme Court ruling on tho legal
ity OF the increase. which was held up
grounds. The demurrer filed by the
Attorney-General is the routine an
swer Of the defendant and raises the
same objections to the plaintiffs pc
tition as were registered by the audi
tor himself when he held up the in
crease.
Tho case Is now before the Supreme
Court Of Appeals and an opinion is
expected to be handed down in Wythe-
vile. State Senator James E. Cannon,
who is representing Mr.. Wood and the
other State officeholders, whose salary
increases have been held up, is pre-
pairing brief. which will be pre-
the arguments Of both sides are de-
layed the matter will be disposed OF at
| the Wytheville sitting.
TWO CoNsTITUTIONAL
POINTS ARE INVOLVED
Two Constitutional points are in
volved Section SO forbids the salary
| OF an executive officer from being In
| creased or diminished during the term
| for which he was elected. Since the
n n frc o-t, VI
approved March "a. and his new term
began March l. the demurrer holds,
the increase can become operative only
! after the expiration of the present
term Of the petitioner
| The Supreme Court. with reference
to this point, will be called upon to
| decide whether the superintendent of
the State Penitentiary is an "oficer
| OF the executive department."
The second point raised by the de-
murrer is that the act Of March "a,
1916, in so far as it Increases the
salary Of Mr.. Wood, is a special law
and. therefore. violation OF Section
SO of the Constitution, which provides
| that the General Assembly shall not
enact any local, speciaN or private
law creating. increasing or decreasing
the salaries OF public officers during
the terms for which they are elected
/ or appointed.
AhC act u MATCH 1910, Otherwise
known as the general appropriation
| bill. increased the salary of Mr.. Wood
from $3.50 to $4,000. IT also in
creased the salary Of Commissioner ].
3. Doherty, Of the Department of
Labor. from $4,000 to $4,000. and tho
salary of Davis Bottom. Superinten-
dent OF Public Printing. from $4,000 to
$4,000. With minor notifications, the
cases OF these three officers are identi-
cal, and mandamus is asked for on
| behalf OF all three.

LIQUID CYANIDE WAS
CAUSED GIRLS DEATH

Court room, Waukegan, ILL.,, June 10.
The prosecution S strongest expert
evidence against viii Orpet on trial
for Marion Lambert's murder, was
brought out this afternoon by Dr.
Ralph j. Webster, chemist, who mar.
shaled an array of scientific facts in.
dieating Marion's death had been
caused by cyanide in liquid form not
powder, as cOntended by the defense.
DR.. Webster, amidst dramatic
scene when the clothes that Marion
wore on the day of her death, were
brought into the courtroom in coffin
shaped box, gave his evidence in terms
Of cold, calculating science.
The coat that Marion wore was
placed before the jury. Three whitish
round spots were on that, above the
waist
''These spots, he said, "were made
by liquid form of cyanide of potas-
SUM, that was spilled on the coat.
"This whitish streak here was made
by a mixture of cyanide and saliva.
1t could have been made if Marion
had attempted to wipe the poison from
her mouth with her hands.
''n my opinion, the poison that
Marion took was originally in liquid
form. All indications point to that
fact"
Then the state sprang a surprise by
introducing into evidence the gloves
that Marion had wore. 1t had been
cOntended that the gloves were held
by the defense and that an analysis of
them would show races of poison if
Marion carried the poison to Helm
woods herself.
"Was there any poison on the
glOves7" DR.. Webster was asked.
"No.D
