New York, Feb. 27.-Seven of a
group Of IA Spaniards arrested here
Sunday on suspicion of completely
in an alleged plot to attempt over
throw of the federal government by
assassination of public officials,
were released from the custody of
the secret service today on a writ
of habeas corpus. Immediately aft
erward they were rearrested by inn
migration officials on warrants
charging them with being alien an
archists and subject to deportation.
Judge Knox, who granted the
writ Of habeas corpus Tuesday, up
held it on its final return, ruling
that the prisoners were detained
without warrant, the secret service
having presented no evidence of
crime. He criticised the govern
ment detectives for their delay in
bringing the defendants into court,
declaring that while their arrest
perhaps was justified by suspicious
directed against them, the men
should have been brought promptly
into court, given hearing and bail
fixed"
After the rearrest of the alleged

RAILROADS UP
BEFORE SENATE
Would Require All Passenger
Trains to Stop in Front
of DepOtS to Load
or Unload.
From a Staff Correspondent.

Lincoln, Feb. 27.-Practically the
entire morning session of the senate
was taken up Thursday in consider
ing the Hoagland bill. which is
aimed to eliminate accidents, the
sponsor told the senate. The bill
requires all trains carrying passen-
gers to stop in front Of the depots
to load or unload.
The railroad committee of the
senate had amended one provision,
designed to deal with the problem
of double tracks or in the instance OF
the larger cities where there are
from six to a dozen tracks in front
of the depot, all of which are now
used for unloading. The Hoagland
bill made it mandatory on the COM

grafton bureau. The court set the
return for tomorrow.
Weinberger attacked the Depart
ment of Labor's procedure, under
which, he said, aliens were depriv-
ed of their constitutional rights by
being compelled to testify against
themselves" He said the depart
ment was violating the law in all
its deportation cases, requiring sus-
poets to be witnesses in their own
cases before informing them of their
right to counsel.
Judge Knox said he would not
at this time" pass upon the pro-
priety of the departments rules and
regulations, which he described as
"hoary with age" but said if the
Spaniards' counsel wished to press
this point as regards his clients at
the final hearing on the writ he
would consider it. Weinberger
served notice that he proposed to
attempt to overthrow the illegal
practices" of the department, which,
he declared, had never been subject
to judicial inquiry.

Dean Of Agricultural
College in Favor Of
Farms for Soldiers
From a Staff CORRESPONDENT.

Lincoln, Feb. 27.-Dean E. A.
Burnett of the University College of
Agriculture spoke before the Ne
braska Corn Improvers' association
Thursday morning on the subject:
Land for the Returning Soldier"
Dean Burnett pointed out that
most of the allied nations have set
aside public land for returning SOL
diers, and have extended govern
ment aid in the form of loans to i'm
prove and equip this land. Canada
has reserved lands for her soldiers,
providing a homestead of 100 acres
with loan of $500 to each man
for the development and equipment
of such land, repayment to be made
in 20 years at 5 per cent interest.
France has provided for extend
ing credit to civilian victims of the
war for acquisition and development
of land by the small farmer. Repay
ment is to be made in Is years at
l per cent interest. Thus land own
ership by resident farmers is looked
upon by all nations as essential to
their national strength and integ-
rity.
