Statements that were attributed

II hope to see established during

Our present national defense law

traditions. 1t provides for a small
regular army to be augmented by
great citizen forces in the event of
national emergency. This Is our
traditional military policy. But
whereas in the past these larger
war forces have been extemporized
after the occurrence of an emer-
gency, the new law wisely provides
that the framework of their or
ganization shall be established and

FACE INDICTMENT
In KABER MURDER
Alleged, Prisoners Case
Ready for Action
By Jury.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, June IA
Indictments on charges Of first de-
gree murder of the two remaining
women in custody in the roundup
of suspects in the murder Of Dan
F. Kaber are anticipated early this
week by County Prosecutor Edward
C. Stanton.
The two women to be indicted,
he says are the alleged woman poi
soner who is said to have given
Mrs. Kaber the medicine which
was later determined to have been
arsenic and who is also declared to
have hired the paid assassins who
were to beat Dan up" and mid
wife who is said to have introduced
Mrs. Kaber to the poison wonder
Two Men Held.
When these indictments are re-
turned by the. grand jury there will
be five women under indictment in
the two-year-old mystery of the
staying Of Kaber. In addition two
men are being held. $
Prospects today were that the
trial of Mrs. Kaber would open
June %, despite a legal objection
raised by the widows attorney,
Frances Poulson.
1t is now the theory of the prose-
cutor that four men were actually

dered. Two of these, 1t is declared.
were the ones who actually did
the stabbing. The other two acted
as lookouts..
A constant guard is being main
tanned before Mrs. Kaber's cell. The
guards have been warned to be
doubiy watchful since the finding,
last night in Mrs. Kaber.s cell, of
two jagged pieces of glass carefully
wrapped in bit of paper.

years ago because 'she hated DAN"

Lies, lies, all lies. Is Eva not
content with trying to fasten the
guilt for Dams murder on me with

herself by making ne appear the

Zihlman Would Have OF.

mission.

The present street car chaos and
the high rate Of fares now existing
In washington. would never have
been allowed to assume such proper
tfons II the citizensl OF the District
had been represented at all the
hearings of rate cases before the
public utilities commission. is the
opinion of Representative Zihiman
of Maryland.
There should be an once created.
according to Zihlman, known as the
peoples counsel" who should have
access to all necessary data that
would enable him to show, II possi-
BILE. where an injustice in the estab-
lishment Of rates would infiict an
injury upon the community. rather
than make it incumbent upon the
commission to act in the capacity
OF Judge while attempting to pro-
tect the people from extortion.
should Have Initiative.
The activities of the peoples
counsel would not necessarily be
confined to defensive measures. Rep
resentative Zihlman explained. In
the cases where. in the judgment of
the counsel, a corporation was
charging more for its service than
1t was rightfully entitled to, a hear
ing could be called by the peoples
counsel for the purpose OF bringing
about a change of rates.
The idea" said Representative
Zihlman. is not an original one 1t
was tried in Baltimore and found
to be an unqualified success. The
Baltimore Gas Light company in
1914 was charging 81 per thousand
cubic feet. Upon Investigation the
peoples counsel finding this rate to
be exorbitant. called for a hearing
The result was a reduction of from
81 per thousand to so cents per
thousand.
Forced Better Quality of Gas.
shortly after the reduction in
the rate. the quality of gas showed
marked deterioration. Again the
peoples counsel demanded a hearing
calling upon the commission to force
the gas light company to bring the
quality of gas up to its former stan
dard. and was again successful"
The opinion was also expressed
by Representative Zihlman that
there should be a separate commits
sion whose duties should be confined
to matters pertaining strictly to
public utilities. The volume Of
work devolving upon the commits
sioners, he explained. entities them
to be relieved of the extra burden
of acting in a dual capacity. Tho
municipal duties of the commission
ers really require all the time and
energy that they are able to devote
to them and it is manifestly unfair
to compel the commissioners to act
as a public utilities commission.
Ready to Aid District.
The position of the citizens of
the District of Columbia" said Mr..
Zihlman, lis peculiar one, unlike
that of the citizens of any other
city in the United States. and there
fore limited In their ability to take
advantage of the experience of
others. but l am heartily in favor
of any fair and just means that is
intended to aid the people Of the
District of Columbia"

FIGHT ON COMPERS
FALTERS AS UNION
DELEGATES MEET
Labor Federation Stands
By Leader in
Crisis.

DENVER. Colo, June IL. - The
fight to unseat Samuel Gompers as
president of the American Fedora
ton of Labor had failed to gain
any great support among delegates
on the eve of the opening OF the
annual convention.
Careful canvass of many leading
delegates showed that sentiment is
still. apparently. as strong as ever
in favor Of retaining the veteran
leader at the head of the labor
movement during its present critical
hour. The so-called radical ele-
ment in the labor Organization.
which has fought Gompers for
many years, is the nucleus of the
anti Gompers sentiment It has
gained some strength from the
Irish sympathizers, who claim the
federation has not given proper
support to the struggle OF the
Irish people for freedom, as pledged
in the Montreal convention.
Blamed for Wage Cut.
Add to this a small representa-
tion who believe the affairs of the
federation could have been handled
in better shape to prevent wage
cuts and widespread unemployment,
and the total Of the crystallized
anti-Gompers sentiment is reached.
Developments in the convention,
which opens here tomorrow, may
result in recruiting other factions
against the aged leader. II this
happens and a candidate is put for
ward who is more acceptable to all
factions as a sort of compromise,
they may be able to give Gompers
close race.
Many propositions are coming
before the convention which might
very easily cause a serious split.
This was demonstrated when dele
gates representing 10000 carpen-
ters and joiners walked out Of the
building trades council follow
ing a dispute over rulings by the
national board of Jurisdiction.
Tension Is High.
The question of jurisdictional
rulings Will be the subject of a
bitter fight in the convention. The
wide scope Of unemployment, the
cutting of wages, and the open
shop movement are also questions
of such vital moment to the labor
men that the majority Of the dele
gates are at high tension.
John L. Lewis, head of the
United Mine Workers, Is the man
most prominently mentioned in
connection with whatever hight NAV
be waged against Gompers. The
success with which he has handled
his organization through several
critical periods has won admira-
ton from many labor leaders of
standing.
Hompers is taking passive DO
no fight to retain the presidancy
and that IL the delegates desire 70
replace him he will be quite satis-
