Oser-M Mccormick
Wedding Apparently
POSTPONED for Present

Chicago, June 3-AIrs. Edith Rookie
fcller Mccormick, through her coun-
sci, today withdrew her petition OPP
posing Harold +. Mccormick as guar
dian for their daughter, Mathilde Nc
Cormick, and also for a restraining
order to prevent Mathilde's marriage
to Max Oser, the Swiss riding mas
ter.
Probate Judge Horn said he would
expect Mr.. Mccormick ito take into
consideration circumstances brought
to the attention of this court" mean
ing presumably, Mrs. McCormick's
statement that she suspected Max Os-
or of being a fortune hunter"
81 can assure the court that that
will be done" said Mr.. McCormick's
attorney. Edwin II. Cassels.
Remarks by the court and counsel
for both sides indicated that the Nc
Cormicks have reached an agreement
and also that Mr.. Mccormick. who
has been appointed his daughters le-
gal guardian. will withhold his con-
sent to the marriage until full investi-
cation of the allegations made by Mrs.
Mccormick against Oser are made.
"Mr. Mccormick will discharge his
duties with fidelity" said his counsel.
SO the marriage is off for the pres
ent and possibly for good.

This evening at o'clock, daylight
time, at the City building, the Board
of Trade is to hold an important
meeting. to which all interested in the
city and its Improvements are cordial
~ invited. The subject to be consid-
cred is the proposed new lighting sys-
tenn which it is proposed to install in
the city. The Central Maine Power
Company has offered to install the
lights without expense to the city.
The cost of maintaining them is
somewhat more than the cost of the
present system on Water street, and
it is to consider the method of meet
ing this additional expense that the
meeting has been called.

Warrant Against
Georgia Man in
War Frauds Case

Washington, June "A warrant has
been issued by United States Com
missioner Hit for the arrest of j. l..
Phillips, chairman of the Republican
state committee for Georgia, charging
fraud in the execution of war con-
tracts. Beyond confirming reports that
the warrant had been issued, Commits
sioner Hit refused tonight to discuss
the case.
Phillips, as a member of the firm
of Phillips & Stevens, obtained con-
tract soon after the armistice from the
government to dispose of surplus
left from cantonment and camp con-
struction and other war building de-
velopments. the firm having been des-
ignated by conference of lumber
dealers to act as their agent.
Representa- Woodruff, Rcpub-
lican, Michigan, in a speech recently
in the House, asserted that official
reports had been filed by government
auditors in September 1921, showing
that Phillips and Stevens still owed
the government under this contract
more than 81, 5000 and that so far
as he could learn mo percentages
whatever had been instituted in this
connection"

kATAHDIN BRANCH
Il. & A. to Suspend

Bangor June :'-The Katahdin
Iron Works branch of the Bangor &
Aroostook railroad, which by man
date of the Public Utilities commits
sion of the State will be discontinued.
would have been 40 years old June
10.
In the four decades of it's existence
the little railroad has passed through
three ownerships and while built to
supply long felt want, passes out
of existence because its operating ex-
penses exceed the revenues.
1t is believed that the TX. L."
branch. as it is commonly called, is
the first Maine steam road ever to
have been wholly suspended.
The railroad was constructed to
haul pig iron from the Katahdin
Iron Works and slate from the
Brownville slate quarries two -four
ishing industries that have long since
passed out of existence. 1t wac
built as an independent line, running
from Milo Junction on the Bangor
& Piscataquis thorugh Milo and
Brownville villages, thence to the
iron works, total length of 10 miles.
1t was opened June 10, 1882 On
July /. 1887, it passed into the hands
of the Bangor & Piscataquis by lease
On April /, 1892. it came under the
control of the Bangor & Aroostook
when that corporation acquired the
old b. p, and Nov. 6, 1901, passed
into the hands of the B. & A. by
purchase.
The katahdin Iron Works and
Brownville wanted a railroad rpetty
badly when the B. e X. I. w. was
built. For nearly four decades iron
had been smelted in the Katahdin
furnaces before there was rail trans
portation to haul the pigs of market,
and for half as long as that had
slate been quarried in Brownvlle
and depended on mule or horse
| transportation to bring the product
to a steam line.
! Before the Bangor & Piscataquis
was built the katahdn iron was
! hauled to Bangor by team. After
! the r. & p. was constructed, both
| iron and slate were loaded at Milo.
! This was a six mile haul from the
slate and one of nearly 20 miles for
| the iron.
Four mule teams were employed
to haul the iron. and the journey in
and out occupied two days. The
slate teamsters could make it a trip a
day, but hardly better than that.

Sen. Stanley Takes
His Turn in Raps
at Harding, Daugherty

Washington, June 3.-Presldeht
Harding and Attorney General Daugh-
erty were assailed today in the Sem
ate by Senator Stanley, Democrat
Kentucky, in connection with state
ments credited yesterday to President
Harding with respect to Senate at
tack on Secretary Hoover and to as
scrtions made by Mr.. .Daugherty In
his Chicago address yesterday as to
the policy to be followed in filling the
"a judgeships created under bill re-
Gently passed by the Senate and
House.
Senator Stanley, interpreting the
presidents remarks on the basis OF
some newspaper accounts to refer to
criticisms of all cabinet officers, in
GLIDING Mr.. Daugherty, said Mr. Hard
in was attempting ito stife II iot TO
muzzIe" the press. Turning his fire on
the attorney general, the senator ac-
cused him of having BY his Chicago
speech served public notice on appll-
cants for the judgeships that they
must not say anything in criticism OF
Mr.. Daugherty if they expected APP
pointment to the bench.
Reading from dispatch in the Phil
adelphia Public Ledger III which 1t
was stated that the president had
taken two listed fling at the politi-
cal blackguards" who attacked eXecu-
tive officers. Senator Stanley wanted
to know who were these political
blackguards who are assailng the at
torncy general"
"They are two members of Con-
gross" he said, who on yesterday
wore the colors and the uniforms at
soldier; eminent senators representing
sovereign states, ambassadors from
two proud commemorative. Is it pos
sible that a genial, self-polsed, couar-
teous gentleman occupying this hlsh
place could so far forget himself in
his desperate attempt to shield a man
who dares not shield himself. to sieak
for a man who dares not speak for
himself?
"Wiu the president in his despera-
ton, finding no other who dare to say
a word for this discrcdited official, de-
nounce senators as blackguards VINO
criticize the nefarious and crooked OPP
erations of a political broker who
makes it a business. it is charged, at
least to deceive the chief magistrate
of the United States in order that men
may dcspoil women IN time of peace
and plunder the treasury in time of
war;"
Quoting from dispatch in the Phil
adclphia Public Ledger in which II
was stated that the president believed
newspapermen and newspapers per-
formed a public service in putting on
the brakes in the publication of at
lacks on the executive officers. Mr.
Stanley said he would tell the presi-
dent that this is not Austria; this IS
not Prussia, this is the once free

thing to putting on a muzzlc.' he de-

Hot Exchanges
at Lockwood
Probe Steel Merger

New York, June 3.-Ihe sparks
flew again today at the Lockwood
committee investigation of the latest
steel merger, with Samuel Untermyer,
committee counsel swinging on the
anvil and Mortimer l.. Schiff of Kuhn
Loeb and Company, fabing in anger
at his interrogations.
Their verbal fusillade got so hot at
one time that Untermyer warned the
banker that he might go to Jail for
refusing to answer questions. Schiff
quickly intimated that if he did,
Untermyer would keep him company
behind the bars.
The discussion centered around the
part Kuhn Loeb and Company are to
take in merging the Republic, Mid
vale and Inland companies into the
North American Steel Corporation.
Shift insisted the relationship of his
firm was purely one of banking. They
were financially fathering" the en-
terprise, he said, and wer to head a
syndicate to underWrite $4,000, 900 in
preferred stock at 500 and $44, 200, 0G0
in common at s43 and then raise an
other s20,600,000 in cash to purchase
additional Midvale paper.
Cntermyer contended that the
bankers intended to create a mark
et'' for the stock of the new corpora
ton with this $20,000,000 cash, and
that they We're likely to manipulate
prices to favorable levels by buying
and selling securities.
Not with resentment Schiff called
on Chairman Lockwood to make Tn
termyer cease asking unfair" ques-
tlons.
After he had admitted that the
bank might both buy and sell the
stock. the question that set off the
fireworks was put to Mr.. Schiff in
these words:
so that whilst with one hand the
syndicate is selling stock to the pub
lie with the other hand it is buying
stock from the public
Schiff said is was not true be-
cause the transactions were not 81
multaneous and when the lawyer in
CURED how he knew, he shouted:
we do not wash stock and / re-
sent that implication"
"All these resautments. you know.
don't count" Uutcrmyer remarked.
The facts are what We are looking
for"
Then put the question in the way
that they are facts, and don't twist
things, suggested the banker.
MIR. Chairman. YOU had better
warn this witness that he is not in
his banking Office" said The lawyer.
And neither are YOU IN your Of
Hee,' came the r.tort.
