ARMY DRAFT BILL
TO CONFERENCE
Passed by the Senate a Second Time to
Straighten Out Parliamentary
Tangle.

WASHINGTON, May 2.-Without a

not begin for several days Cons
frcrcS of the senate and house Will

completed iii time to have President
Wilson attach his signature in the

The senate passed the war army bill
a second time in order to clear up
parliamentary tangles. 1t was done
without any prolonged discussion and
without any serious effort to revive
the struggle over the volunteer sys
tenn as opposed to the selective draft
feature, which consumed most of the
! time i'll last week 5 debate. Senator
La Toilette spoke in support of a sub
stitute with a referendum on raising
an army by draft to send to Europe

BRATTIEBoRO VERMONT WEDNESDAY, EVENIN1. 1917.
JURIES MUST TRY
CRIMINAL CASES
Ruling by Supreme Court in Brattle-
boro Case Opinions in Three
Windham County Gases.

Brattieboro attorneys are greatly III
tcrcsted in the findings of the supreme
court in the ease of the State of Yer
mont against NJ. Hirseh, which was
banded down by the court yesterday.
This case was one in which the de-
fendant was tried on the charge of aid
ing i'll promoting a lottery by securing
members for u furniture club for the
United Furniture Co., of Boston. He
was tried before Judge Frank +. Barber
Of the Brattleboro municipal court, who
found him guilty and imposed a fine of
$50 and costs of 1921.
The supreme court, in an opinion
read by Justice William II. Taylor, re
verses the Judgment and remands the
cause. The supreme court holds that
trial by municipal court judges with
out !; jury in criminal causes, even with
the consent of the respondent, will not
be allowed.
The full opinion has not been seen
here, but attorneys, basing their state
ments on the newspaper reports of tho
opinion, say that not even man
charged with intoxication, who sees fiji
to plead not guilty to the charge, car
be tried by the municipal court alone
but must have jury.
Another Windham county case OF
much local interest was that of Marion
Howe, ), daughter of Harry H. Howe
| of Townshend, through whom the Cen
tral Vermont railroad was sued fo
$4,000 for injuries sustained when tn,
automobile in which the Howe famil,
was riding Sept. 10, 1918, was struel

A third Windham county case i
which an opinion was handed dow
yesterday was that of the Internationa

was read by Justice Watson.
