WELLINGTON SENTENCED TO
 SERVE LIFE IN
 STATE PRISON
Murderer of Noal C. Johnson Plesds Guilty and is Sent enced. Has Had Bad Rec ord and Known to Local Officers.

J. Wellington. the murderer Of Noel c. Johnson. the auto driver. will soon begin the punishment for his crime. Yesterday he was taken before Judge A. C. Lockwood in Tombstone and waived his preliminary examlration. An information was flied against him at once. and he entered 8 plea Os guilty or murder in the irSt degree and was sentenced tO life imprison- ment
 He was visited by 6 number of peO- pie yesterday in the jail and some he would talk to. Late last evening a man from Bisbee who had some deal inss with him under The name Of Will liam Jackson went into see him. He recognized the PiSbee man at once and spoke to him. He talked freely. telling the Bisbee man the authorities were trying to connect him murders committed in another state. and that if they tried to extradite him to a state where there was capital punish ment he would resist it.
 Mystery unrsVeled
 The mystery or he man. J. Welling- ton. who pleaded guilty yesterday to the murder of Noel c. Johnson on the road between Bisbse and Douglas last Saturday night. has been cleared by the sheriffS office in this city.
 Wednesday. when the word came that Wellington had a pawn ticket in his possession for a pin pawned. in Brewery Gulch shop, the officers went there and found that it had been left there by a man who gave his name as William Jackson. One Of the officers thought that the name sounded familiar and that he had dealings with the man before. He began 10 try and refresh his memory. and yesterday it dawned on him that Jackson was none other than man named Charles A. Barr. whom he had watched for San Bernardino officers who came to Bisbee and tried to To- cate Barr. They sought the assist snce of the sherif's office and Barr was located under the name of Jack sen. He was working at that time in the Gardner shaft.
 Nf OluftTS IENIn SAu fNTNATOAUu did not want Barr. but wanted a man named Scott. who was a personal friend of Barr. Scott was wanted by the sherif'S office in San Bernardino county. California. for the murder of a man named Claude Chapman. The circular sent out at that time said: Scot; left Chloride. Ariz.. July IA, 1917. driving Dodge car and accom- panied hy one Claude Chapman. On July % Chapman'S body was found in a secluded spot near Klondike, san Bernardino county. a bullet hole in the back of his head showing that he had been shot from behind"
 This part of the circular is printed 10 show the similarity of the two crimes. that of Chapman and that of Johnson, the alleged Slayers being per sonal friends and ''rOunders" to- sether.
 California After Barr
 The California officers stayed here about a week. but there were no signs of Scott. They. with the local off, cers, watched the house of Jackson and his wife. near Quarry Canyon. several nights. After these officers left the local officers kept watch on Jackson. He left in August and went to Douglas and went to work in the

Chamber Of Commerce Pror
poses Campaign to Arouse
Nation to Duty.

Realizing that the country Is fast
approaching a crisis where any day
may see actual warfare carried to its
own shores, the Chamber of Commerce
Of the United States, representing all
the chambers OF commerce in Amer
lea, has passed a resolution asking
President Wilson to name a special
commission to give the people the
truth and arouse them to sense OF
their danger.
The situation is considered to be so
acute that the executive committee
OF the chamber did not walt for ap-
proval OF the resolution by its mem
bers through the usual channels OF
the malls, but requested immediate
gri nted, and yesterday the contents of
the resolution, which were actually
passed on May "a, were made public.
II is understood that the, President
will comply with the request and name
q commission entirely independent of
the Committee on Public Information,
Of which George Creel Is chairman.
The National Security League, 1t was
also announced. will send 2,o00 speak
ers through the country to give the
people the truth.
What Is TRUTH
whatSis the truth? Here it is, as Of
hcfally announced by the Chamber OF
Commerce under the signature of Jo-
seph n. Defrees, of Chicago:
ASIDE from the question of shorten
ing the war, there are hfe-and-death
should sped preparations for the
great conflict. There are possible and
even probable contingencies whic
might cause the United States to bear
the brunt Of the fighting on her own
shores:
III Russia should collapse.
IF the British fleet, should be over
come.
IF the food situation should bring
cur allies to their knees.
III great reversals should be met on
the, western front
IF the submarine menace remain
unchecked"
says that the main obstruction OF
speed is the failure of the people to
appreciate the fact that we are at
war" 1t Is felt that an urgent need
exists for precisely the same kind OF
campaign Of national education and
information as thz= conducted by~Eng-
land when 1t came to the realization
Of what war really meant.
Seven Urgent Matters.
Seven urgent matters, in the opinion
OF the Chamber OF Commerce. must
be made clear to the people.
/. That the banks cannot take caro-
OF the bonds. The bonds must be
bought by individuals.
p. That conscription does not carry
with il. anything of disgrace. II. Is
as patriotic as, and much more effec-
tive than, the medieval system OF
volunteering.
. ., mat labor must b readJusted on
!. large seaIea 1t nnlAt be made more
productive, and its varied problems
carefully considered.
4. The food administration viii
necessarily be represslye. but is in the
interest of all.
5. That there Is a fslse and proper
national economy. Business in wal
time is not "as usual"
S. That the intelligent cooperation
OF women in both direct and indirect
branches Of war effort Is absolutely
essential.
7. That there should be a systematic
centralized control for the systematic
support of the families OF those who
go to war. This should be throueh- the
intelligent cooperation of the govern
nlent, local organizations. and en-
ployers."

SIDDONS FAVORS
TRADE merger
Justice Says Only Thus Can
Trade Bodies Be Effective.

Justice siddons, of the District Su-
preme Court, gave the movement for
consolidation OF the trade bodies of
Washington q distinct boost last
lumbia Heights Citizens Association
that was brimful of business logic.
Forward Washington must be a
unity Of interest" he said. 1T is
futile to talk Of political, enfranchtse-
ment or civic Improvement unless
such movement is backed by the
concerted effort Of civic bodies"
in the opinion Of the Justice because
OF the lack Of unity amnog represen-
tatiVe bodies interested In the Dis
triet OF Columbia. ~
We have never. been q united

sociation and the Lnamber Of Com
merce, in advocacy Of a certain
movement. would appear before a
Congressional committee and each
would have its differences. There
1t was a mere duplication in funda-
mental facts This has always been
the source OF trouble in the For
ward Washington movement"
Efforts we've being made last night
to have the committee Of business
men which is formulating a working
plan for the unification OF the trade
bodies TO come together tomorrow and
draw up a rough draft Of their views.
This will be submitted to all three
bodies for formal discussion, and II Is
hoped that committees from all three
organizations will be named to con-
sider a reorganization plan along the
lines suggested
r. P. Andrews, upon his return to
the city yesterday, gave his unquali-
lied endorsement TO the merger plan.
Il am heartily in favor OF the plan
to bring together the organizations OF
Washington he said. Il would he
only too willing to tender my resigna-
ton as president OF. the Retail Mer-
chants Association IL such action
would help to bring about the desired
merger into one big. representative
body.
Il nave always been in favor of
one organization, and would. of
course. be willing to make any per
sonal sacrifice that might help bring
IL about One of the strongest ar
sunleats IN favor of the hniaeatioli Of
the tEada b3dies is the fact that we
have no vote in the District and no
effective means Of presenting the
needs Of Washington to Congress.
such a central body, If properly or
ganized and, supported. would, in my
Judgment, be a big stride forward in
the fight for suffrage here. for We
could then go to Congress In a body,
representing all the people of the Dis
trIct, and our action would be bound
to get consider tion."
