Attorneys Pass
Lie In Trial Of
Mingo Miners
Defense Counsel Rcsents
Implication He Had Prior
knowledge of Shooting
Of Sheriff Dan Chafin
Preacher Namedin Killing
Witness Says Party Which
Slew Deputy Gore and 2
More Was Led by Minister

CHARLESTOWN, w. Va, May T.
Testimony as to the killing Of Deputy
Sheriff John Gore on Blair Mountain
and Of compelling men to join in the
march on Logan and Mingo counties
last year was enlivened day by q
clash between excited lawyers, in which
Harold W. Houston marked as "a 1ie''
an implication in remarks by A. NJ
Belcher that he had prior knowledge Of
the shooting Of Sheriff Don Chain at
union headquarters in Charleston. Al
though the trial was on a treason
charge against William blizzard, he
was mentioned in the testimony Of only
one Of the witnesses.
The clash between attorneys cams on
Mr. Belcher's objection to questions by
the chief defense attorney, who was
asking Logan County deputy sheriff
about Sheriff Chains interests in coal
mines. From there the lawyers argu-
ments turned to Mr.. Houston's declara-
ton that coal operators paid large
sums Of money to Chain for the pur-
pose of making war on the United Mine
Workers, 20 which Mr.. Belcher couu.
tered that the vice president Of Dis
trict II of that organization shot Chain
after he had conferred with Mr., Hous-
ton.
Defense Attorney Shouts Defiance
The defense counsel pulled off hIs
glasses as he rose and waving his fore
finger up and down before Belcher's
face, shouted: 'If you imply that
know anything about that, it's . l,e."
The Rev. John Wuburn, Baptist
preacher of Jeffrey, led the party which
killed Gore, according to the testimony
Of Jack Brinkman, musician with car
nivals and touring musical comedy COM
compelled to join the marchera at Dan.

mony Of the seven witnesses heard

which some half-do1en detached them

on Blair Mountain.

"Where to?" as challenge, and "To
Mingo' as an answer, were the first
passwords of the miners forces, Brink
man testified, but after the first clash
between miners and Logan County
deputy sheriffs this was changed. The
later forms, he said, were "Who

Rich Family Lacks $500
Bond; Held at Island
Surety for Deaf and Dumb Boy,
Here 10 Attend School, Fails
to Arrive From Costa Rics

Through the failure of q bond to ar
rive here from Costa Rica, Francisco
Huertado jr., the sixteen-year-ol son
Of wealthy planter of the little
Central American republic, was de-
tanned yesterday at Ellis Island on his
arrival with his parents on the steam
ship Ulua of the United Fruit Line
The boy. who is deaf and dumb, came
here TO enter private school with his
brother, Alexandra, who is fifteen. AL
though his parents are wealthy, their
assurances that the child would not
become public charge would not be
taken in lieu of the bond. All the de-
tails for the boys admission to this
country were attended to through the
American consulate at Port Limon and
bond of $500, which was executed
there, was said to have been forwarded
to the inlmj mjgration officials here.
Meanwhile the parents and brother
OF Francisco were detained. 1t is be-
lieved that the father will be able to
file another bond to-day, which will
enable the boy and the family to enter
the country, The detention is re-
garded merely as technical.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE packer

which was put through Congress large
ly through the efforts of the agricul-
tural block, was held constitutional to-

current from the West to the East, and
from one state to another" the court
described the livestock business con.
Quoted in the yards as interstate in
character.
Congress, in the act, Created the
various stockyards of the country as
great national public utilities to pro-
mote the flow Of commerce." Chief
Justice Taft said in delivering the
opinion Of the court, land assumed
that they conduct a business affected
by public use of national character
and subject to national regulations

PARIS, May 1.-Premier Poincare
will resist any attempt to bring about
any meeting of the Supreme Allied
Council before May 81. it was learned
to-day from source close to the Pre-
mier. He has not received any invita-
tion either from Lloyd George or the
Italian government to call meeting
of the council while the nations are
assembled at Genoa. The Premier does
not see the need of any such reunion
and considers that it would not aid in
any of the useful work of the confer
ence at Genoa.
Avoids Danger to Parey
The Premier IS extremely anxious
not to interfere with any good end
that might be accomplished at Genoa,
and he is careful to avoid any blame
that might attach to failure of nego-
tiations there. He has told his friends
that no hasty move should be made
affecting international relations. As
the question of the German morato-
rum is in the hands of the Repara-
tion Commission, he feels that no gov
ernment is called upon to decide for
that body, but should leave the matter
wholly in their hands and await the
decision.
France is perfectly willing to grant
Russia sufficient time, but insists that
the debts be paid and properties be re-
turned.

Countrv's FInances Sonnd

LONDON, May, (By The Associated
Press Among the items of expendi-
ture in the budget were $685. 600 900
tor national debt services. f62 300 900
for the army and SEA 1884 900 for the
navy.
The last year said Sir Robert, had
been one of unexampled trial, with a
slump in the trade boom which fol-
lowed the war and coal strike. The
manufacturers could not dispose Of
their stocks, he pointed out, on account
Of Of %he exhausted purchasing power of
their customers. That such distresses
Rad been met without worse calamities
was an eloquent testimony to the
soundness of the country and the
solidity Of its financial position.
The revenue for the last fiscal year,
ended April 5, the Chancellor said, had
been S1124 100000, which was 99l,-
100000 less than estimated, The ex-
penditure had been 11 ,079, 900 900, leav-
ing 45,00ooo0 for debt reduction.
The amount Of the income tax col
lected, S398,000 900, was tribute, said
the Chancellor, to the financial sound
ness of the country and the patriotic
character of it's people.
Debt Cut Gs8,Oooooo
The total debt reduction during the
last year, he said, was more than
1S8, 100000 and the total for the last
three years was G274, 100000. He said
he hoped American exchange would
soon be at par.
The Chancellor estimated the reve-
nue. for the coming year. on the basis
Of existing taxation, at s956 500 900 and
expenditures Mt o,0oo,000, of which
f335 100000 would be for debt services.
Interest on the American debt, he said,
would be 100000 (about sl10,-
00O.000), and the total debt to America
was $4,166,0 100000. He proposed a re-
assessment for house and landed prop
erty for income tax purposes, becom-
ing effective for the fiscal year 1925
1924, which would be cons iderable ad-
vantage to the Exchequer.
Reduction in Letter Postage
Letter postage, Sir Robert announced
would be reduced from two pence to
one and one-half pence, printed papers
from one penny to one-half penny and
post cards to one penny, Certain re-
ductions also would be made in telc-
phone rates, he said, adding that the
total cost Of these reductions would be
e6,500.000. These changes become cf-
fective May l.
He declared there were signs Of a
revival of trade. but said the burden
of taxation had checked enterprise.
The policy of redemption Of the debt
had been pursued with vigorous sue
