DISMISS HABEAS CORPUS
WRIT ON ATTY. MARSHALL
L. :. Federal Official Technically i'm
Hands of House of Repre-
sentatives.

NEW YORK. July 20. - United
States Atty. II. Snowden Marshall
was technically in the custody of
Robert d. Gordon, sergeant-at-arms
of the house of representatives.
wednesday night after his writ of
habeas corpus preventing his re-
moval TO Washington TO answer for
alleged contempt of the house, was
dismissed by Federal Judge Hand.
Mr. Gordon is not in the city. how
ever. and Mr. Marshall is not &C
tually in his charge.
After a conference with his at
torney. former United States Sen.
John @ Spooner. the federal at
tOrnev announced that he would at
once file with Judge Hand an APP
plication for a stay of execution
which will enable him to appeal in
the supreme court of the United
States. Should the stay be refused,
Mr. Marshall will go 10 Washington
voluntarily
In his decision Judge Hand held
that the house OF representatives
acted within its rights in voting Mr..
Marshall in contempt on the ground
that his criticism OF the house was
made public during an investigation
into charges against Rep. Frank
Buchanan and others because of
their connection with Labor's Ma
tional Peace council. This organiza-
ton was alleged TO have fomented
strikes in plants manufacturing
munitions for the entente allies.

NEW GROUP Of ELK
EXHIBITED AT MUSEUM
Animals From Yellowstone National
Park on Public View in
West Wing.

A family group of American elk or
wapiti from the Yellowstone National
Park has just been put on exhibition
in the west wing of the new building
for the United States National Museum.
The animals in this exhibit were SSpe-
cislly collected for the Smithsonian
through the courtesy of the Interior
Department. from one of the herds of
elk under government protection. The
group was prepared originally for the
Panama Pacific exposition at San
Francisco and was exhibited there in
the Palace of Agriculture. but has late
ly been received at Washington and
placed on exhibition.
This group shows a family of elk in
the Yellowstone National Park, at the
first sign of winter. Snow has fallen
during the night while there was no
wind. and. lies heavily on the pine
boushs and branches.
American elk or wapit. scientifically
termed Cervus canadensis, which
once had a wide distribution in North
America. are now confined chiefly to
the states of Wyoming, Montana and
Idaho and the provinces of Manitoba
Alberta and Saskatchewan, Canada
The largest herds occur in the Yellow
stone region, numbering between sc, 900
and $4,000, distributed in two main
herds.
