Trouble About sSThem, Chickens.

Trouble About 'SThem, Chickens.
Editor Daily Journal:
Is there law against chickens
running at large? II so, how may l
get the benefit of it? I am trying
to have garden and flowers and the
reighbors will not keep their chick
ems up, saying they can't raise them
in small yards.
Will you please publish my ques-
ton, and the answer to it, so l may
know how to proceed. I do not wish
to have any trouble over the matte,
and if have no protection, will give
up trying to have garden and flow
ers.
Yours rtuly,
ETA q. CALHOUN
Just fasten strings inches Ions

and find the cards dangling from
their bills they will 90 home making
noise enough to wake up GREENWOOD.
Try it and report the results to this
Office. This is better than any Law
on the subject We believe you will
find that it will work admirably.

 VOID INSTRUMENT
Coansd iOr Alleged Slack Says
 LaE Is Behind Clients

New York, June 19.-The opening yesterday, in the Federal District court. of the conspiracy trial of the Columbia University and Barnard coll iege anti-conscriptionist students. Owen Catte1l. Charles F. Phillips and Hiss Eseanor Wilson Parker, disclosed tho legal grounds on which the so- Eialists and others claim unconstitu- fionality for the s4lective draft law. These. according to statement to Judge Mayer by Morris Hillquit, coun- xel for the accused are:
 l. The state militia may be used by the federal government only to Axecnte the laws of the Union, to sup press insurrections, and to repel in- xaaion. and cannot lawfully be sent abroad.
 @a. In New York state every able nAA citizen between eighteen and Forty five years belongs to the militia, sehd cannot be drafted by the United btetes for general military purposes.
 .. Compulsory registration and 9he selectire draft bring about 'in- Soluntary servitude,' invade the right 10 life. liberty and the pursuit of tsAppiness. and favor certain re- H9aons or churches which hold con- Scientious scrupies against war.
 Judge Mayer held that none of the roints was good. Miss Parker sat with her mother at the counsel table. With young Catteli were his father, Prof. J. McKean Cattell of Columb4a, 1rs. Cattell and his sister The Rhillips boy, who pleaded guilty teverai days ago of having failed to Ne9ister, was attended by his father, mother, brother and sisters.
 Assistant United States Attornev Eortent produced three witnesses.
 Morris Sptegel. printer at No. ca Eooper Square. said Cattell left with aim, May 24, manuscript of the .'Will Kou Be Drafted" circular, ordering e.O00 copies.

The circulars had been ordered sent to No. 296O Broad way. the Pulitzer School of Journal ism of Columbia University, the wit. ness said.
 Mr. Content read the proofs to the Jury. emphasizing the words of the circular that advised young men witt, conacientious scruples not to register The cttcular was signed by the three students.

C0NSCRPT BOARD BUSY
Ow1ng td Great Amount of Detail and
  Research Work List of Registration slackers Is Not Complete.

|
 As yet the New. Britain board of conscription registration has taken no action to apprehend any alleged slackers, but the members are busy going over the lists in the wards and checking up names. Until this has been done thoroughly and system atically it will be impossible to take any action unless the board has req son to suspect certain individuals. Because 90 many local men. unknown to the general board, are enlisted In various branches of governmental service which makes them exempt, and because 50 many men with home addresses in this city have registered in other cities the wedding out pro- cess will necessarily be slow.
 According to the interpretation given by Mayor Quigley to . state- ment issued by United States District Attorney Thomas J. Spellacy yester- day any men eligible who have not yet registered may do 50. either at the mayors once or through any authorized registrar. A self con- fessed stacker visited the mayor yes- terday to ascertain his exAct status and upon consulting over the tels- phone with the district attorney the mayor was informed that men thus negligent will continue to be regis- tered.

SIDE STEPPED TAX
 ON MUNITION PROFITS
Treasury Department Learns of Cases Where Assessment Was Not
 Paid and Forces Returns.

' 5E
 Washington, June 1s.-Wholesale attempts on the part of intuition makers to avoid the present tax of 12h per cent. on their profits have been unearthed by internal revenue agents. Proof of attempted evasion to the extent of $12.000.000 has been found already.
 Treasury officials expected at least $26,O00.000 from this tax. Returns from manufacturers fell far below these figures and a force of spec1al revenue agents was set to work. Through this method and by corre- sporidence, the government has re- covered the $12.0oo, 900. 5.9
 In one instance the treasury de- partment complained that manufac- turer had mad no return. He replied that he had made no profits. Sub- .ssequently he sent a check for $780, 900. . s3s
 < Not all the manufacturers made in- correct returns. but the percentage of those who did Is said to have been high. On of the methods frequently adopted to bring down the profits was to, charge of as expenses proportions of the cost of special munitions plants. Justification of this, was At- tempted by the plea that the plants be worthless when the war ended. Investigators reported that after the war the factories could be utilized in other ways and by no means would be . total loss
 Activity of government agents re- suited in a number of requests that returns be sent back for revision. Tho penalty for false returns Is fine or Imprisonment or both. .
