WAR RISKLAW
ON GUARDIANS
NCOURT TEST EST
First Case Involving Ben.
eficiary Rights of Fos-
ter-Parents Filed.

The first lawsuit to test the legal
ity Of the refusal of the Bureau Of
War Risk Insurance to permit fos-
ter-parents Of soldiers killed in ac-
ton to collect insurance money be-
longing to the estate Of the deceased.
was filed yesterday in the District
Supreme Court by John F. Norris'
foster-father of William Ricketts,,
private in the 313th Infantry, who
died In France on October .. 1913.
. The plaintiff, in a petition for a
writ of mandamus. directed at both
the Bureau of War Risk Insurance
and the Treasury Department, claims
to have taken care Of Ricketts,
mother before hersdeath and then
raised and cared for the boy after
ward until he reached manhood.
The War Risk Insurance act does
not allow foster-parents to be named
as beneficiaries, but does state that
the insurance money shall be dis
tributed according to the laws Of the
State from which the deceased had q
legal residence. Norris claims that
his foster-son resided in Baltimore,
Nd, and that the laws of that State
allows a fosterfather. In the ab-
sence of claims of other alleged rel
atives, to become heir to the estate
Of fostes-son at the latter's death.

COAL INQUIRY
DOORSCLOSED
Senate Subcommittee Decides
To Bar Public for the
Present.

Investigation of the charges that
government officials made enormous
profits in coal when a famine was
threatened last summer will be re-
sumed today by the Senate Sub
Committee on Reconstruction.
The committee decided yesterday
to hold no public hearings for the
present in connection with the in
quiry, and to conduct the examina-
tion of witnesses behind closed
doors instead.
Dan w. Simms, formerly employed
by the Department of Justice as
a special prosecutor in the cases
brought against coal operators and
miners in the Federal courts in In
dianapolis during the strike crisis
OF last year, has been summoned
by the committee. Simms resigned
following differences with Attarney-
General Palmer over the method of
handling the cases. From him, the
committed expects to learn how the
department effected the, settlement
finally reached in the situation.
George NJ. Gushing, managing di-
rector of the American Wholesale
Coal Association, who first divulged
to the committee the information
that Federal officials had been max
ing big clean-ups in coal, has fur
nished the committee with the
names of three men who he said
had made a profit of 100000 in a
single deal. Senator Calder, chair
man of the committee, refused to
make public the names but he said
that two of the men involved are
still connected with the govern
ment and the third was a s1-a-year
man who had resigned only re-

U. S. REPLY MADE
in CABLE DISPUTE
Three Cabinet officials Cite
Presidents Power in
Matter.

Secretaries Daniels, Colby and
Baker, of the Navy, State and War
departments, filed their answers
yesterday in the District Supreme
Court to the rule to show cause why
they should not be restrained from
interfering with the laying of for
eign cables on the Atlantic Coast
by the, Western Union Telegraph
Company.
The cable lines in dispute run
from Cojima, Cuba, to Key West,
from Barbaioes to Miami, Fla, and
from Miami TO Miami Beach.
All three\ of the Cabinet ofhcials
base their Interference upon the
powers granted the Chief Executive
under the Constitution. 1t is pointed
out that the President has from the
time of President Grant, In the earl
lest days of ocean cables. exercised
the authority to prevent the laying
to American shores of foreign
cables, which were controlled abroad
by monopolistic interests.
The court is asked to dismiss the
petition of the telegraph company
for an injunction perpetually re-
straining the government officials
from interfering with the work Of
laying cables and the operation of
them also. The case will be argued
in court on January 4.
