BACK TO FEDERAL PRISON
FOR REST OF THEIR LIVES

ATLANTA, Ca. April 8.--Herman Ka-
bansky, Edward Mcdonald. alias Gil
lette, and Samuel Moore, the last named
being coIored. have been returned to
the federal prison here to spend the re-
mainder Of their lives. unless pardoned
by the President They came from the
District Of Columbia reformatory at
Lorton. Va. from which they escaped
several months ago. having been taken
there as honor prisoners more than two
years ago. when the reformatory was
established. They are among the many
inmates of the federal prison here
charged with murder.
,Kabansky killed his wife and mother
in-law, Mcdonald slew his wife. while
Moore's victim was a fellow prisoner
In the Washington. D. c.. Jail. When
the reformatory at Lorton was estab-
lished and 1t was decided to have pris-
oners taken there from federal prisons
as an experiment in the establishment
Of the honor system the three prison
ers were taken there from the federal
prison in this city. They escaped from
Lorton, but were recaptured.
All three men declared they could be
put on their honor SO far as the federal
prison here is concerned, and declare
they would not escape II doors were
opened to them. It Is their contention
that their acceptance Of the honor con-
ditions at Lorton were not violated In
their escape: that they only escaped
when conditions became unbearable.

Representative William Atkinson Jones,
democrat, of Virginia. chairman of the
House committee on insular affairs. is
lying in a precarious condition today fol-
lowing a stroke of paralysis last night.
Mr.. Jones has been in feeble health for
some years.
Mr.. Jones is sixty-nine years old and
has served in fourteen Congresses con-
tinuously. His service began in 1891
and he ranks as second only to ex-
Speaker Cannon In the number of years
served in the House.
His last active service in the House was
when he piloted the administration bill
declaring for the ultimate independence of
the Philippines. On that occasion he was
still weak and for some months previously
had been hardly able to go to the Capitol
He was once candidate for senator from
Virginia and had been active in state
politics. in which he was fearless and
vigorous partisan.

NEED Of LAWS AGAINST
D|SLOYALN EMPHASIZED

The necessity Of lays severely Pc
nalizing disloyal utterances again was
emphasized in the Senate today. when
bill with its punishment for disloyal
statements and attempts to obstruct
the Army draft and liberty loans.
An amendment by Senator Thomas
Of Colorado. slightly modifying one
clause of the bill. was adopted. His
amendment provided that utterances
and publications abusive Of the Amer
lean government, Constitution, soldiers
and sailors. flags. etc. shai be "wilifuf'
in order to have the penalties apply.
Senator Hardwick Of Georgia proposed
and Senator Poindexter of Washington
opposed changing the original Poin-
dexter amendment Furnishing those who
"by word or act support or favor the
cause of the German empire or its al
lies in the present war or oppose the
cause OF the United States therein"
Senator Hardwick suggested that the
words cause of the" be stricken out.
to make the prohibition more general
in terms, but Senator Poindexter said
such a revision might punish discussion
of German matters, such as music. edu-
cation, the German military system and
other subjects, including matters oc-
curing before the war.
Senator Sherman of Illinois called at
tention to what he believed to be the
danger Of passing amendments to ex-
isting laws. He said the tnterpretat1on
by the courts Of the entire act might
initiate against the effectiveness of the
laws.
Senator Borah of Idaho. who has ex-
pressed himself as being favorable to
the bill. said that il there is-a provi-
sion in the measure which would pro-
hibft free discussion of the efficiency
or fpefi1ciency of any department or Of
ficial> or the wisdom or unwisdom Of
any Official he would oppose 1t. Re-
plying, Senator Sherman said the word
"contemptuous," as used in the bill, is
Objectionable. The language is suffl-
ciently broad. the Illinois senator said,
as to make any slight uncomplimentary
reference to a public official an offense.

They not only don't learn you moth

like to see a real big Lacquer with q

der this Corp. Jake Wart. After the
officur got done lecturing he told us
bombs. Well I took one of these pear
shaped things made with a lot Of
little iron leaves where they burst and
kill Huns, and I threw 1t like / was
shooting one home from third, and /
guess 1t must have gone about 200
yards
Well Frenchie he give me q big
balling out in French and English and
then this fresh corporal he had to
stick in his oar. 1 didn't say nothing
but just made up my mind to do what
they said, that being according to the
prevailing military custom at this
particular camp at the present mo-
ment.
When my turn came to throw an
other bomb I wasn't paying no par
ticular attention about Corp. Wart being
out in front picking up the bombs 80
I let mine drive stifr armed like I was
taught. OF course 1 didn't have no con-
troll at all and that iron bomb caught
the corporal right in the bean and he
went out stiff and cold.
I thought for a while I was going to
get shot for killing a corporal but he
come out of it all right and he had
quite a lot to say about my bomb
throwing technique.
I guess the-next time they will just
let nature take her course.

TEXT OF sEDITIoN BILL
OUT BEFORE ALTERATION

Committee Later Took Out Phrase
Including President.

The text of the important provisions
of the sedition bill. now before the
Senate, which has aroused a contro-
versy between Col. Roosevelt and
Chairman Overman of the judiciary
COMMITTEES. was sent out by the .Asso-
ciated Press from the printed copy OF
the bill given out by q clerk at the
judiciary committee room.
1t developed, however, that in con-
sidering the measure the committee
had stricken out the words '-or the
President of the United States" and the
bill as reported to the Senate did not
contain that phrase, which it has con-
tended would have practically prohibited
criticism Of the President.
The later print of the bill as report
ed by the committee does not contain
that phrase and 1t Is not now in the
measure before the Senate. 1t was put
before the committee by Senator Myers,
who introduced the Montana statute.
The law of that state now does contain
the words which the Senate committee
struck from its bill in finally reporting 1t.
