sci, Maxwell McNutt, has filed a new
motion for a new trial, this time in
vOxing an ancient law which giving
defendants the right to protest any
official fraud that might have caused
their conviction.
In the new motion. he asks that
the death sentence now hanging over
him be set aside on the grounds of
wilful fraud. malfeasance, and nom
feasance in the office of District At
torney Charles NJ. Flckert. The mo-
tion was followed by arguments on
the Jurisdiction OF Judge Frank A.
Griffin in the case, which already
had gone to the State Supreme Court,
where a new trial was denied.
McNutt based his argument on the
ancient writ OF Coram Nobis Cbefore
us the kingl. He argued that the
court had inherent power to set aside
a Judgment which had been procured
through fraud and contended that he
could establish proof OF fraud.

that when he did succeed in getting

the same bill introduced in the Sen
ate the day the struggle in the
Judiciary Committee over the
"0verman bill" ended in an Admin

was then said to be an "Administra-
tiOn bill"
Senator Gallinger made some in
quiries about this bill the other day
before beginning to make up his
mind there was nothing else which
might need to be talked over for 4
month before adjournment. Per-
haps there is not. But under the
Gard bill, had it been passed before

proclamation from the President
would have enabled Mr.. McAdoo to
take over all the railroads Of the
country-without making a fuss

Congress Did M5as yesterday IT
Highly Interesting and Instructive Day at the CptO-s
New Administration Leader in the Senate Subjected to Repub
can DupEcy- Republican Campaign for Controlling the
Next Congress Opens Without Senator OVermans Consent
By W. V. BYARs.

What Congress did yesterday was
to develop the first outline of a pos
sible plan for controlling the next
Congress. 1t is a possible plan,
because if it ever becomes actual 1t
will be a Republican plan, and, IN
parliamentary language, the Repub-
licans are at present in state Of
painful indecision. To be more ac-
curate in definition they are off their
base and up in the air, with no land
ing place visible except between the
devil and the deep sea.
The Washington times., 1918-05-03

Those who are at all interested in
matters of this kind may be intense
ly interested by the various gyra-
tions of experts, who, while up in
the air, are engaged in preliminaries
which may decide possibilities; but
a5 this is not the real business of
Congress it is best first to dispose
of the highly uninteresting real busi-
ness of the day. This was done in
the House. 1t consisted Of listening
to ninety pages of the District of
Columbia appropriation bill, and
passing it finally without any objec-
tion or formality likely to delay i'm
mediate adjournment. A sufficient
number of members of the House
were present during the reading to
enable the rest to absent themselves
for "arduous committee work" When
not more than twenty-five or thirty
members are present in the dull
work of appropriating sums of pub
lie money ranging from the S13,-
100000 appropriated yesterday, to
the billion or so sometimes appro-
priated in the same way, all missing
members are, in a parliamentary
sense, engaged in "arduous commit
tee work" This is never questioned
unless some member who has been
refused unanimous consent to extend
his remarks in the Record suggests
the absence of a quorum-which was
not done yesterday.
The Washington times., 1918-05-03

AS against what was being done
in the Senate, Secretary Baker ap-
peared among his friends Of the
House Military Committee and ex-
planned his war program in secret
session, withholding only the num-
bers Of men who are to be called
out in this country under the COM
ing draft and the numbers to be
shipped to Europe. It was ex-
planned that the only limit is our
shipping capacity and power to
equip them.
According to unofficial les1Is from
the Star Chamber session Of the
House Military Committee, Secre-
tary Baker wanted thirteen billion
dollars for three million men. Per-
haps he may call for more than
thirteen billion finally, but against
unofficial leaks he was thoughtful
enough to put on record a typewrit-
ten statement-not so much of what
he said to the committee as Of what
he did not say. In this, he put first
a denial that he had given totals for
the number Of men needed.

Siam Adopts New FIau.

Slams white elephant flag is to be
abandoned for the red white and blue
colors of democracy. Commenting on
this. the Christian Science Monitor
says:
an spite of the fine feeling Of en-
thusiasm for the allied cause which
1t shows, one can not but be sorry
that Siam should have decided to dis
card her own splendidly original flag,
showing white elephant on red
field, for a tricolor resembling that of
the great entente powers of the West.
Siam sees In the red, white and blue
flag the colors which throughout the
world stand as rallying sign against
barbarism.' 1t IL quite interesting TO
find that red, white and blue do as a
matter of Pact figure in the national
flags of Britain, France the United
States, Russia, Serbia. Cuba, Panama,

sible to the assembly for his actions.
If he offended he was incontinently de-
prived of his Office.
The assembly, called rada, was PEI
riodical and comprised representatives
Of all classes of the community, who
often criticized freely the policy of the
hetman. In the interval between radas
the hetman ruled the country by Sc
ries Of DEGREES. When any section of
the Ukrainian community was dissatls-
fed with the person or the policy OF
the hetman 1t was entitled to call to-
gether a rada, which in such cases was
called black rada. If the black rada
happened to be representative enough,
and the complaint met with the APP
proval Of the majority. the hetman
might be compelled to resign.
While the Muscovites lived under an
absolute monarchy, while the Poles
were ruled by n naughty and exclusive
aristocracy, in Ukraine all were free I'M

lican institutions were gradually TAX

Many dogs have received decorations

retrieve himself, but thus far he has
not recovered his rank.
1t is said that the dogs on the ships
which fought at Jutland--and there
were many of them-lave all been
decorated by their shipmates. The
animals during the battle, it is assert
ed, played the part OF real heroes
without cowardly hair upon one OF

Great Cereal Country.
The famous black soil of Ukraine
covers three-quarters of the country.
To the north us well as in the Carpa-
THAN mountains are some 10000
square kilometers of forest. The agri-
cultural soil covers SO per cent of the
aggregate territory of Ukraine and 81
per cent. If we take in the whole Of
European Russia, which is, however,
six times greater than Ukraine itself.
The annual production Of cereals in
Ukraine Is two-thirds of the whole pro-
duction in the recent Russian empire.
1t Is greater than that of Germany or
France. The expectation Of grains
from Ukraine amounts to 81 per cent
of the production, and of all the wheat
exported from Russia nine-tenths
comes from Ukrainian lands. AS a
matter of fact, the trade of Ukraine Is
more developed than that of any part
of all Russia.
Ukraine ranks highest among all the
countries that COMPOSE the vast Rus
sian empire as to the annual agricul-
tural production. Wheat, barley and

George Raffalovich, a Ukrainian by

In all these districts the Ukrainians

The Rurik dynasty founded Ukraine.
When it disappeared, as all monarchies
must, the next organization that kept
the Ukraine lands together was the re-
public OF the Cossacks, whose domain
overlapped Llthuania and Poland, who
occupied much Of the Ukraine soil.
The Cossncks were organized some

western Europe. Their precepts were
obedience, piety, chastity and equal
