PROBE IS ORDERED
OF SALE OF BOOKS
Judge Hits Methods of Or
ganization Prosecuting
0bscenity Charge.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, January 10-Judge Her
bert Immenhausen of Morals Court
yesterday ordered an investigation of
the methods whereby the Illinois Wig
lance Association secures the evidence
upon which the booksellers are being
prosecuted in Chicago for selling what
the association claims Is obscene litera-
ture.
The investigation order was the climax
of the trial Of Miss Marion Mathes, 26,
a saleslady in local book store, ar
rested on a John Doe" warrant. She
was held in a police station cell several
hours before securing her release, but
the owner of the shop was not appre-
hended.
In his request for an investigation
the court criticized that portion OF the
law which provides for half of the fine
going to the organization which makes
the complaint. Judge 1mmenhausen
also suggested the States attorneys Of
fee be more careful to see how evil
dence was obtained before prosecuting
cases of this nature.
It was charged in testimony at the
trial of Miss Mathes that the agents
of the association persuaded the shop
keeper to order literature not in stock
for the purpose of Bringing about the
arrest and collecting the fee.

figure in Oklahoma history, who re-
turned recently from Bolivia, where he
attempted to establish an agricultural
colony.
Murray has announced his candidacy
for the Democratic nomination for gov

which declares that public utility COR
porations should not be permitted to
engage in any business for which they
are not specifically chartered.
One other candidate, E. B. Howard OF
Tulsa, former Representative, has an
nounced for the Democratic guber
material nomination.
Murray has entered the thick of
Oklahoma politics again. although it
had been his dream to spend the re-
mainder of his life free from turmoil
and strife" in the paradise he hoped 10
create in Bolivia.
Several years ago Murray turned his
attention to the establishment of the
Bolivian colony, boyhood ambition
He took rs farmers, mostly married Oh
lahomans, to settle a 20000-acre con-
ceSsion in Bolivia.
The project was short lived, however
and in less than year after it was
initiated all but two of the families in
the original colony had given up hopes
for success and had returned to the
States.

Interesting Centennials.

This year is the centennial anniver-
sary of two interesting discoveries. The
first steam engine, the invention of
John Ericsson, was given very sue
cessful trial in London 100 years ago.
Ericsson,s engine substituted machin-
cry for hand power and sounded the
knell of the old-type fire apparatus
brought from Holland to England in
1888. The test was made on a bitter
cold night. A big fire had broken out
in London. a city already terrorized by
three fires that had threatened it with
total destruction. On this memorable
night the old engines quickly froze up
and Ericsson's model was called into
action. For hours 1t worked inces-
sanity.
The other anniversary is that Of the
introduction of the Braille system, of
raised characters for the blind. Braille
had learned to write and read the en-
bossed Roman type. Later he examined
carefully all existing systems of raised
characters and adopted as the basis of
his own invention the photographic
method of Capt Barber. q young
French cavalry officer. Barbier's letter

talked with Foreign Minister &C.

was the one who announced the

by phone on the matter is not re-
vealed. Undoubtedly Morrow gave
Estrada instructions on what the
United States imperialists want
done in Mexico. That Rubio and Es-
trada will implicitly follow the in
structions of Morrow is without
question, as their past actions have
proved them the most faithful belly
crawlers of their Wall Street mas
