MILL STRIKERS
STONE MILITIA

MANCHESTER, N. H., May "a
GN.SD With disquieting ru-
mors current, another company
of militia was ordered here to-
day by Adjutant General Charles
w. Howard, augmenting $50
militiamen stoned by Amoskeag
Mill strikers and their sympa-
thizers after a tear gas attack
by the guardsmen last night.
The trouble started when a
crowd of several thousand massed
before the gates of the Amoskeag
Mills, largest cotton manufac-
turing plant in the world, which
has announced a IS per cent in
crease in wages, but not until
next July.
Colonel Clarence E. RexfOrd,
gray-haired teacher of mathe-
mates at st. Paul'S School, who
left his classroom to take COM
mand of the four militia COM
panies, stood on a bridge and
tripped mechanism on tear gas
bombs, sending clouds of fumes
swriling through the ranks of
the demonstrators.
The gas attacks were met by a
barrage of stones from the
groups of rioters, with girls in
the front ranks defying the
soldiers.

SAN FRANCISCO, May "a
GN.SD.-There is a note Of the
bizarre-an incredible, almost
preposterous angle to the new
Tom Mooney trial-the phenom-
ena of a prosecution refusing to
present case. 1t makes a
battling, intense, and highly ex-
citing drama.
The whole scene is spectacular
and moving. The people con-
cerned are all full Of color.
There's suspense in the very air
as you step into the crowded
courtroom. It tightens about you
like an electric current.
Mooney enters with hands
cuffed but colors flying. He's
elated. You see it in the tilt of
his head, the flash of his hazel
eyes and in his almost jaunty
manner. It's his day-his great
hour awaited through long, aching
prison years. He greets the
throngs, calling to him, with
happy mods.
How Well He Looks"
There are whispers as he takes
his place beside his attorneys
and the handouts are removed.
How well he looks-how
healthy and dapper."
Mooney is 81. You wouldn't
believe it. His cheeks have ruddy
color. Like one who'd sailed the
seven seas. He gives an impres-
sion of rugged dominance.
,Rena Mooney-Tom's wife
movers about him. The contrast
between them is bitter-almost
pitiful. He-the conv1ct-seems
so serene. Spiritually and phys
lcally content. But Rena is har-
r1ed-like a person in a fog. She
tumbles with the lovely amber
beads that are the one ornament
in her shabby outfit. Rena has
been devastated by the years.
But the Mooney family conduct
themselves with nice dignity. In
comes the sweet, clipper little,
old mother. She's a fighter-a
woman who's worked long hours
in a cotton mill, but she's very
sweet. She pats her boys shoul-
der and says:
II wish I could take him home
and cook him a nice ham and
sweet potatoes"
Anna Mooney, the sister-a
black-eyed, handsome woman
Stoops and very quietly kisses her
brother. A look passes between
them-a look full of understand
ing and devotion. It was fine,
even if you don't like Tom
Mooney.
Dynamic Lawyers
The prisoner took his place
between two dynamos. He made
the third. All of them are pic
turesque. Leo Gallagher, lean,
wiry old codger full of vibrant
force. Frank Walsh-heavy set
and stocky but colorful and
emanating power.
Judge Louis H. Ward enters.
A hush falls-a deep, still excite
ment. Judge Ward has a quiet
manner. It's the quiet of sharp
vitality.
He looks like a scholar with
that smooth shock of iron gray
hair brought smooth across his
forehead. His eyes are gray, cool,
shrewd. He conducts his court
with unfailing dignity. You feel
sure that he is open-minded

Blazing Drama Ready to Flash Forth at
Morgan Quiz, Says Edwin Hill

utter the usual pleasant plaCltudeS.
They are the three members Of
the committee who really know
something about banking, al
though one may include Senator
Townsend of Delaware, who hap.
pens to be a banker himself.
Finally Senator Fletcher, the
chairman, fingers his pince-nez
and administers the oath. And
Mr.. Morgan with his right hand
at shoulder height, palm out,
swears to tell the truth, the whole
truth, and nothing but the truth
and takes his place little way
down the table between assorted
Senators who look a bit uneasy at
the prominence thus thrust upon
them.
So endeth the first lesson, with
Mr.. Morgan getting in the first
punch as they say in circles some
what less refined than banking.
And then Pecora goes into action
with the usual preliminary ques-
tions, to which Mr.. Morgan re-
plies that his residence is Glen
Cove, Long Island, and New York
city, that he is private banker;
that he is the senior partner Of
the firm which has been in exist
ence SINGER 1894: that there are
20 partners in the firm at pres
ent, that partners are AIDED as
needed, as death thins the group
or retirement, and so on.
No Minutes Are Kept
Under further questioning Mr..
Morgan states that he exercises
only general supervision, having
found that I have some mighty
good partners" that the firm is
not departmentalized, but that
assignments are given to individ-
ual partners according to their
special knowledge of this subject
or that.
Quickly it develops that no
minutes are kept at the daily con-
ferenceS Of partnerS-merely a
record of those attending-a fact
which strikes Mr.. Pecora and
some of the students in this ad-
vanced course in banking as high
ly significant and possibly even
sinful.
That line of questioning doesn't
get very far because Mr.. Morgan
urbanely and smilingly explains
that under the banking laws of
the State of New York his firm
is not required to keep minutes
or any record of meetings, be-
cause it is not a corporation and
no vote is taken on business pro-
poSalS."
Senator Reynolds Of North Caro-
lima toSses bomb into the inter-
rogation with a question which
Pecora had probably been saving
for much later:
"Have you any objection, Mr..
Morgan, against providing this
committee with the articles of
cOpartnership signed by each
member Of your firm?"
To which Lorenzo the Magnifi-
cent calmly and courteously
makes reply:
II should greatly object, Sen
atOr, for the reason that it has
to do with the personal affairs
of the partners."
EAGER TO PROBE PROFITS
The significance of all this is
that the committee is burningly
anxious to learn, through the
articles of copartnership, just
exactly how much of an interest
in the Morgan firm Is possessed
by each individual Of the 20 part
nerS.

the final figure in his Rainbow
Monument Of Peace, and, as he
displayed the SO heroic and

fully for an adequate home for

he had passed another decade
of life.

Outside Is a not too subdued
murmur of the common people,
restrained by the police. The
corridor is packed with them.
The Morgan encourage appears
at the rear door of the committee
room, headed by John w. Davis,
candidate for President on the
Democratic ticket in the almost
forgotten year Of 1924.
White-haired, pink-cheeked, well
nigh ecclesiastical, Mr.. Davis ap-
pears on the threshold and
spreads a keen glance over the
buzZing, weltering crowd.
There Is no smile on the Davis
face, for it is plain to be seen
that every fiber Of his being re-
volts at the spectacle Of his
friend and employer being drag
ged into the limelight to make
sport for the populace.
And after Davis, Morgan

ner, and still another, tall,
slim, handsome George Whitney,
brother of Dick Whitney, who
bosses the New York Stock Ex-
change. And after them an as
sortment of clerks and lackeys.
Solicitously, almost tenderly
handed along by John w. Davis,
Mr.. Morgan finds q seat at the
very front end of the room.
The minute he relaxes into
his chair the voraciouS comera-
men begin to shoot. From all
angles they stalk and snap the
big game that has eluded them
for years. Movie cameras grind
and still cameras click as the
Smokeless flashes gleam, and all
the while our modern Lorenzo the
magnificent sits calm and COM
posed.
He is closely approaching bald
ness, with little more than a fringe
of thin gray hair at the back Of
his big, finely shaped head, and
barely a fringe over his ears, and
the scalp glowS pinkly with the
red blood Of excellent health and
vigor.
Against the definite tan of his
face his close-clipped gray mus
tache stands out. There is some
thing English about him as he
sits there. due in part to his
English-squire bulk.
Senators Pay Respects

that cutting was the worst thing
in the world for cancer. He asked
DR.. Ferris what was IN the
formula, but the latter professed
ignorance, saying it was DR..
Streets secret.
Although his Wife's condition
seemed to grow increasingly un-
favorable during nine weeks, DR..
Britton said, and she wrote him
saying that she must have NOR

was gaining.
Aate All Tissues
Stedman Prescott, prosecuting
the case, asked DR.. Britton what
he knew about zine chloride. He
said it had been condemned as
long ago as when he was in medi-
cal school; it was a powerful cor
roSive that ate all tissues, even
bone.
Before DR.. Britton took his wife
to the Baltimore hospital on April
l, he said, DR.. Stret visited her
one day at the home of DR.. Ferris.
DR.. Britton told him, he said, that
he was certain she would not
recover, but DR.. Street insisted
that she would. At that time she
had a wound eight inches in
diameter. almost to her ribs.
At Baltimore she was given
blood tranSfuSions. She had a
raging fever and was deliriouS,
but hospital attaches said she had
a possible chance to get well.
