 GEN. IN COURT
Legal Gas Attack Latest Maneuver - Battle Not Decided Yet-Attorneys Engage In Technical Dis cuSsiOn

The battle between Adjutant General Harris and Governor Campbell was re- newed in the Lyman sector yesterday afternoon, in the hearing of the appli- cation of the former for an injunction to prevent the governor from a further interference with the affairs of the of- flee of tho adjutant general.
 The matter had been set for half past uine in the morning but another case was pending and the hearing went over until afternoon.
 Colonel Harris was on hand with his attorney, Spencer B. Pugh. Governor Campbell was not present, but was represented by Judge Sloan and Attor- ney w. Fl. Ryan. MT. Pugh, before the arrival of the attorneys for the gover- nor asked about the return and seemed anxious to know whether it was in proper form and whether it had been made at the proper time. Later, when the hearing was begun, Judge Sloan sad that that was immaterial; that the rights of the defense would not have been imperiled if no return had been made at all
 After some discussion as to the pro- cedure, MT. Ryan offered three affi-

should be repealed or amended, Ihat legislation, MT. Pugh said, had been sustained by the supreme court
 Question Governors Power
 There was another string to the DOW of MT. Pugh. It might, he said, be ad- mitted, though he did not admit It TOT it was contrary to the fact, that the governor had power to appoint ana discharge adiutant generals. Even then he said that would have to be done only in proper course and not in the manner in which the governor had sought 10 dispossess Colonel Harris. In support of that proposition he offered the Me- Govern case from Wisconsin.
 MT. Pugh was followed by Judge Ky an. He said that the case of the plain tiff was built upon a statute as g. foun- dation in disregard of the plain provis- ion of the constitution, which made the governor the commander -in-c chief of 1 the military forces of the state There vas this difference, said Judge Ryan, i between the Dunbar -Cronin case and l the case at bar: The office of adjutant general was one of the offices enum- erated in the constitution by which the governor was given the sole power oi

making appointments. The office of state librarian was part of the leg islation enacted by the legislature. If the view of MT. Pugh could be sus- tained, it would be within the power Of the legislature to deprive the governor of all appointing power.
 Mir. Pugh in his argument had re- ferred to the dual duties of Colonel Harris, his civilian functions and his position as the head of the military de- partment. He illustrated that in this way, there, for example, was the attor ney general, who held the office to which he is elected and is also judge advocate of the militia. The governor, If he had power to deprive him of the latter position, could not deprive him of the former.
 No Military Department
 Mir Ryan said that there was no such thing as a military department and it cannot be said that the authority of the adjutant general was co-ordi- nate with that of the governor, who was made by the constitution comman- | der-in chief of the militia

WAR EXPENSES

(From the New York Sun)
 Somewhere in Washington-it IS phrase much more nebulous than Somewhere in France"-it has been computed that this country begins the year 1918 with a national debt over five times greater than when it entered the war and that the present debt is ~only ona-third of the debt which promises to develop by the first of next year.
 Granted the validity of this estimate as to the future, it would have been just as well to add that the present na- tional debt at the total gfven-S5,6 ,615. : COG, ,O00--is to the nationar wealth about as 1 to A or to 45- If ar the end of 1918 we shall have national debt of

davits, one by Governor Campbell, one by his private secretary P. R. Milnes, and the third by Ralph Rollins, 3. news paper correspondent The first two re- lated to the preparation of the notice which had been sent to Colonel Harris informing him that he was no longer adjutant general and demanding that he turn the office and its records over to Sergeant Fern, the representative of the governor.
 The affidavit of Mir. Rollins, a nsws- paper man, was intended to controvert an allegation of the complaint that an effort had been made to eject the adju- tant general by force and that unless restrained in the manner prayed for he would be so elected. MT. Rollins was present when the communication of the governor was served. He said that no force was exercised or threatened.
 Study Affidavits
 An intermission of ten minutes was allowed while Colonel Harris and Mir. Pugh examined the affidavits. On their return, MT. Pugh asked for a contin- uance in order that the affidavits might be Sfurther scrutinized by him. Judge Sloan objected, saying that as | tue al1ludNilS were not 10 De GeSdFutu as an answer that they could not affect the case of the plaintiff. Judge Lyman took that view, after which MT. Pugb said that if he should not be bound by any of the allegations in the affidavits; that is, if it should not be made to ap- pear that he had accepted them he would proceed.
 There was still some doubt as to the procedure. The court ruled, however that the burden of proof. the showing of Suse why the injunction should not be granted rested on the defense.
 After an argument of nearly an houl by Mir. Pugh, the court ordered thu crush cleared away so that the law i there was any, might be exposed Thereupon Mr. Pugh went into the his tory of the legislation on which tn adjutant general relies to hold hi place, which is now pore or less of al old story.

THIS STARTS THE STORY

A British sublieutenant is sent up
az lookout in an observation balloon
by cruiser patrolling the North sea
IN the summer Of 1914. Strong winds
blowing toward Germany break the
cable holding the balloon and after
hours of drifting in the clouds, the
sublieutenant, seeing land, and think
Ing he is about to land on German
territory, jumps out with a parachute
and lands safely in a pasture, where
he meets a man whom he addresses
IN German. This man uses a pass
word in speaking to the sublieutenant'
who fails to answer 1t satisfactorily
The man leaves him, but not before
the sublieutenant has discovered he'is
now an an island near the English
coast, and the man is a German spy.
He secures food and shelter at
small house on the beach, where he
learns one, Kendall, owns the island,
which adjoins another containing
British naval base. Determined to
capture the spy and win recognition
from his government, he sets out to
explore the place, meets a Doctor
Kendall and man, O'Brien. sus-
picious persons living alone in house,
who direct him to the home of the
owner of the island.
