STATE DROPS CASE
AGAINST EDITORS
Court Orders Part of Indict-
mentS Quashed and Others
Are NoIIe Pressed. q.
BY WILLIAM J. WHEATLEY.
stan CORRESPONDENT Of The star.

ROCKVILLE, Md, May s.--Mont-
gomery County's politico-legal feud,
which has been raging for more than q
month, and which developed from q
county difference into Nationwide in
terest when it was taken into the courts,
came to sudden termination and fms
has been written in the records of the
Criminal Court, dealing with the cases.
States Attorney Robert Peter, jr., en-
tered a nolle pros to the indictments
which were returned against Morris A.
Bealle of Washington and Walter w.
Liggett, former editors of the Mont
gomery Independent, published here,
while the court ordered quashed the in
dictments returned against Walter S.
Casey, the present managing editor, and
Harrison B. French, former editor.
No Alternative for Court.
After comforting with Lucy Shaw, act
ing president of the Board Of Mont
gomery County Commissioners, States
Attorney Peter said that he decided
to stand on the demurrer" This left
the court no alternative but to quaSh
the indictments in the light of the
forceful opinion delivered Monday from
the bench by Chief Judge Hammond
Urner of Frederick, holding th;It the
commissioners, E. Brooke Lee andiCapt.
Joseph Cissel, attorneys to the bounty
commissioners, had violated the secrecy
of the grand jury when they appeared
before it in March, seeking the investi-
cation which resulted in the return o1
the indictments.
There was nothing more that the
State could do when Judge Urner pros
nounced the opinion of the court, bes
cause further action would have resulted
in certain defeat The matters alleged
by the defendants in the pleas were
matters of common knowledge here and
proof of them would have resulted In &
quashing of the indictments.
Commissioner Shaw said that tbs
county commissioners did not desire I'd
carry the case any further, in the light
of the opinion, and that II the oppoc
nents desired to stand on the legaJ
technicality, rather than answer the
indictments, that was all there was to 1t,
Breach Is Split Wider.
After weeks that the matter has been
in the courts, the political feud was left
just where it started, except that in
stead Of being merely an unofficial dis
cussion it now has become a part Of
the legal records of the county, has
served to split wider the breach between
the Democratic organization and the
ants and has attracted Nationwide
attention.
The Democratic organization officials
sought the investigation because Of
alleged Lbelous articles attacking the
government officials of the county ap-
pearing in the Independent. The mat
ter contained in the articles has never
been denied in the court proceedings
which followed by those charged In the
indictments with having published
them.
With the ending of the legal battle.
the citizens are watching with renewed
interest the next move of the two face
tions, and the air is surcharged with
expectation.

Senate 7. G. C.. Committee Is In

Within Next Week.

The Department of Justice is ex-
pected to bring suit against the Radio
Corporation of America within week"
by members of the Senate interstate
commerce committee, who today were
informed by John Lord O'Brian, special
assistant to the Attorney General, on
the progress of Investigations looking

After hearing letter from O'Brian
in executive session, the committee de-
cided not to question him. He had been
summoned to appear. He has confer
red with Chairman CouZens.
Along with his own documents,
O'Brian sent the committee a statement

summated.
The committee believes suits will be
filed by the department within a few
days or, at most, within a week.

VOLUME OF WATER
USED SETS RECORD
City Consumed $4,000 900
Gallons Yesterday, Highest
MayMark in History. .

Approximately $4,000 gallons of
water were used in Washington in the
24-hour period ending at 8 o'clock this
morning, thus shattering water con-
sumption records for May. The previous
high record for May was $4,000 600
gallons.
The SO 900 ,O00- gallon record closely
approached the highest consumption in
the History of the Water Department,
which was reached July 81, last year,
when 102, 775.000 gallons were used.
Records at the Water Department
show that consumption in the last week
reached unprecedented levels for May as
a result of the torrid wave which has
baked the Atlantic seaboard. The aver
age daily consumption for May last
year was 1866, 1886 gallons.
High Since Monday.
Since Monday consumption has not
been under 100000 gallons in any
24-hour period. Monday 81 900 900 were
used. The following day a consump-
ton Of 90,000000 gallons was report
ed. and yesterday the peak of 93,000,-
600 gallons was reached.
The tremendous increase in water
consumption has on one occasion ne
cessitated the use of the Bryant street
pumping station, an auxiliary plant to
maintain normal pressure III the Mount
Pleasant section, where a so-called
'bottle-neck" in the first high main
from the Dalecarlia Reservoir reduces
the water head. This standby pumping
station had to be pressed into service
several times last year when protract-
ed heat waves caused an abnormal use
of water.
Will Install Main.
The "bottleneck" consists of a 24-inch
main connected at both ends with q
36-inch main. The 24-inch main is
In Thirteenth street between Kenyon
street and Florida avenue.
Plans have been made to eliminate
the "bottleneck" with the installation
Of 36-inch main in Eleventh street
between Florida avenue and Kenyon
street, connecting with the existing So
inch first high service main at these
points. Funds for the work are con-
tanned in the District appropriation bill
for the 1881 fiscal year, and indications
are that the main will not be installed
in time to be of service during the
present Summer.
Consequently, Water Department off,
Gals are depending on the Bryant
street STATION 10 keep up pressure III
the Mount Pleasant section during pc
RODS OF heavy water consumption this
Summer.
Original plans for Washington's new
water supply system contemplated the
abandonment OF the Bryant street sta
ton. Water Department officials, how
ever, point TO the wisdom of subsequent
alterations OF these plans which re-
suited In the Bryant street station being
maintained on q reserve basis.

preme bench zone who believes that
some 100000 of our citizens should
have no right to participate in their
Government"
A dispatch from Raleigh, N. c., late
last night said that movement has
begun to persuade Judge Parker to be-
come candidate for the Senate in the
elections of next Fall. The legal period
for filing such an intention has expired.
but 1t was suggested that this difficulty
might be obviated by having the nomi-
nee of the Republican primary resign,
the executive committee then naming
Parker in his place
Some Republican leaders Of the State
were represented as opposing such a
course, but as wanting Judge Parker to
run for the Senate in 1892. Should he
become a candidate this year, he might
find himself opposed by Senator Furni-
fold M. Simmons, who Is candidate
for denomination by the Democrats.
Simmons supported Parker in the Sen
ate controversy. Senator Overman,
North Carolina, who was a
leader in the fight for confirmation,
will be up for reelection in 1892.

IN a general way" Mcbride replied.
But it Is only incidental"
Caraway asked Mcbride ii he thought
q group should organize In an effort to
impose its will on the Government.
Il do not" he said. There should be
no supergovernment."
Questioned by Caraway, the witness
said not as much liquor was being con-
sumed now as before prohibition went
into effect.
.'If that were So" he added, 1.-The vets
would be better satisfied. This is fight
between those who want liquor and
those who think it is injurious"
Illinois Drys Advised.
Mcbride said the league had advised
the dryS of Illinois not TO vote in the
1926 prohibition referendum in Illinois
because the referendum was futile,
and the State had no right to legislate
for the National Government.
Senator Blaine said the Anti-Saloon
