Building Corner and the United States court In striking a blow at the movement has greatly lesrened the danger of a atrong aoclallatlo move ment. Cheek to the Trust. "If this decision It upheld on appeal, and It probably will be, the men who have been planning great consolidations will have re ceived a check In their movement hard to overcome. But I cannot tell whether this will be final with them. I cannot tell whether It will be the end of the move ment. It Is possible that the ingenuity of the manipulators of stocks and bonds has not yet been exhausted and that they will find other ways In which they may effect the same purpose, not so directly, but through contracts or agreements, depending on the personality of the managers or owners. This would be far less satisfactory than the plan which has been declared contrary to public policy, but It Is easy to see that where the ownership of parallel lines It practically the same it will be very hard In the long run to maintain the com petition, which Is the very essence of good business. "We had some experience with the ways of the merger promoters here In Iowa. The Molesberry bill was regarded by me i as a measure In the Interest of mergers. It made possible the expansion of Indebt edness of railway corporations without re gard to stocks or values. It was a step preliminary to consolidations. I vetoed the bill because I believed It was unconstitu tional In that It was not of equal opera tion but discriminated as between corpora tions and different classes of railway cor porations; also because I believed It was contrary to public -policy. Then there fol lowed the Hubbard bill, which aimed at granting express provision for the purchase of one railway corporation by another in any atate. We had a statute giving this power In Iowa and adjoining states, and the bill merely extended It Indefinitely aa to distance. I Insisted It should not be- f.0"!!.a '!.W ln thatvform' nd M nnd,e(J. limiting It to purchase of 'any connecting xtenalon of ita aald railroad not parallel or competing.' It really makes the Iowa tatuta far better than It waa. Under the Iowa lawa aa we have them now no such merger aa waa contemplated In the forma tion of the Northern Securities company la possible. An Iowa corporation has power to make direct extensions of fta lines Into other atatea and . territories, by purchase, but It cannot eliminate competition by ab sorbing parallel or competing lines. Onnomlons Featnre ( Mercer. "It la this effort on the part of tha mer ger promoters to eliminate corvetltlon and to place parallel and competing lines under one ownership absolutely, that la the fea ture of tha movement obnoxtoua to the lawa and ao contrary to public policy that the federal courts have Interfered. The de cision gave me pleasure. It la directly along the lines I have been advocating and la accord with the spirit of the Iowa lawa relating to the aame subject." The merger problem la not a new one to Governor Cummins. Long before he waa a candidate for governor of Iowa he, as a plain lawyer, had aa clients aome of the men who have been consplcuoua more re cently ln the consolidation movement. It waa while he waa in consultation, aa a lawyer, with J. P. Morgan and aome of bit associates a number of years ago, that Mr. Cummins' attention waa Drat called to the plana of tho great railroad and Indus trial captalna to effect consolidations and place control ln the banda of only a few persona. He waa asked aa to his views and then atated plainly that he believed the proposed consolidations were not only contrary to publlo policy but opposed te the beat Intereata of the owners of the rail road propertlea. He declared then that If tha movement was persisted In It would lead. If successful aa the promoters hoped, to a condition which would make It eaay to drift into government ownership, and this was something he did not deal re. Tha view of Governor Cummlna aa an official have not changed and he la still of the aame view. Black Hills Athlete. BTURQIS. B. D.. April 17. (Special.)

The report of the commission of British worklngmen who toured the United States last year study ing conditions of labor was issued today. It presents the views of twenty-three dele gates who separately synopsize their de ductions resulting from the American trip. The report shows a lack of unanimity, except that all agree that the British workman has nothing to learn from the American workmen. Moseley Lands America. Mr. Moseley, who paid the expenses of the trip, saya the American workman Is far better educated, infinitely better paid, housed, fed and clothed, and moreover much mora sober. In conclusion he adds: If we are to ho'd our own In the com merce of the world the old methods must he dropped and the old machinery aban doned. He believes some form of profit sharing is the true solution of the capital and labor question and welcomes trusts as best able to compete on economical lines. The organization of capital and labor, he de clares, will solve the industrial problem. The rest of the reports differ concerning the up-to-date methods of production. though the consensus nf onlnlnn la 1arr.1v ln taTor 0( AmerlCB where the distinctive feature is a hankering for the latest ma chinery and the? best method.

Jamea Cox, representing the Iron and steel workers, pays hit respects to Chicago, where, he aays, "the almighty dollar la the unquestioned king." Of the new postofflce he say a: Any third-rate corporation In Great Britain would have accomplished the work In four years Instead of eight. This is illustrative of government work ln general. D. C. Cummlngs of the Iron and steel ship builders quotes Mr. Cramp as saying: Great BrlUln'a position aa the leading ship builder Is unassailable end unlikely to be seriously menaced for the next quarter of a century. Mr. Cummlnga concludea with a aevere criticism of the social and moral life In America, where, he aaya: Gambling and pleasure aeeklng appear to be characteristic.

DISCOVERY OF EVIDENCE IS ALLEGED Defease Tata la Affidavits Wettlne- lp Alleaml Facts Recently flronght to Light and Favorlnsr the Accused. DAVID CITY, Neb., April IT. (Special Telegram.) At the conclusion cf the argu ment of Senator Hastings this afternoon, C. H. Aldrlch made a short argument In support of the motion for a new trial for Mrs. Llllle. He asserted that the stand ing and reputation of a man In the com munity In which he lives Is not conclusive as to the truthfulness of the answers given on voir dire examination to rerve as a Juror. This refers to Jurors Hllger, Pool and Carlisle, against v.hoiu the charge has been made that they had formed and ex pressed an opinion as to the guilt or inno cence of the defendant. Matt Miller of counsel for the defendant closed the argument for the motion. Mr. Miller argued strenuously that the verdict of the Jury was not supported by the evi dence; that the testimony that Mrs. Llllle was dealing on the Board of Trade ought not to have been admitted In evidence, that If she did deal on the Board of Trade It bad nothing to do with the murder of Harvey Llllle, but admitted that It might create a bare suspicion against her and asserted that the Jury was mislead and dealt more with collateral evidence than with the real evldenciary matters. Judge Miller said It was error to admit In evi dence the results of the experiments made on the curtain, window and screen as to me distance powaer Durns would be pro- duced siml'ar to those on the curtain and glass in the Llllle residence, that this should have been expert testimony; xrat it was error to permit Dr. rjeede to testify as the first witness for the state, for the reason that wltnesa was not the first per- son who saw Lillie after the shooting and further that Dr. Bcede was permitted to testify that the concussion of the powder produced a fracture of the skull, thus in dicating that the gun was very close to Llllle's sknll when the shot was fired. Court took a recess until 7:30 tonight. Not Many Present. There was but a small audience in the court room when the hearing on the mo- ! tlon for a new trial In the Lillie murder case was resumed In the district court this morning. Mrs. Llllle was brought Into the court room at 10:40, accompanied by the usual retinue, except Sam Lillie, who was not present during the forenoon, Mrs. Lime has the appearance of being tn perfect health, except being somewhat pale irom ner incarceration since February 3, I 1908. I When Judge Good continued the hearing on the motion for a new trial to this date he entered an order that all affidavits ln upport of the motion for a new trial should be filled by April 6. Notwithstand ing this order counsel for the defense filed four affidavit this morning. Counsel for the state objected to this, but were given sintil this evening to rebut those affidavits filed this morning, and the hearing com menced. The affidavits filed his morning were claimed to be on newly discovered evi dence. A. L. Hughes 7d James Clark make affidavit as to the flndlrig of a 're volver In an old well about 100 feet from the Lillie residence. Mrs. Corda A. .Ball make affidavit that on the 24th day of Oc tober, 1902, she found a ehlrt ln the alley near her residence with the initials "C" and "S" on It; affiant also says that there was several spots -on one of the sleeves and wristband thereof that had the ap pearance of blood stains. Mrs. Ball says that she gave the shirt to one L. C. Ren at hla special request. The residence of Mrs. Ball Is about five Mocks from the Lillie residence. Shirt Matter Sot New. When the coroner's Jury was holding the Inquest a thorough and complete Investl- gatlon was made as to the finding of this shirt and they could not in any way con- nect it with the Llllle murder for the reason. If the statements made by Mrs. Lillie were true, the man who did the shooting never touched Harvey Llllle after he fired the fatal shot, and It was an Im possibility to get any blood atalns on his clothing. Mrs. Llllle also makes affidavit and tays she Is entitled to a new trial on the ground of newly discovered evidence. In the finding of the revolver and the bloody shirt; she also avers that from the description of the revolver given her that sho verily believes that said revolver Is the one with which said murder waa committed. Mrs. Llllle also says that the finding of the shirt by Mrs. Ball waa unknown to her or her at torneys until on or about April 10, 1908. The attorneys for the state have filed affidavits completely refuting the affidavits filed by the defense as to the Jurors, Hil- ger, Pool and Carlisle. The affidavits aa to Juror Pool are especially strong and aup- port Mr. Fool in every way, and show to the court conclusively thst he is an hon- orame, uprignt ciuxen ln every respect. and the allegations that he swore falsely on his voir dire examination are false. County Attorney Evans opened the argu - ment ln opposition to the motion, making a atrong, forcible argument, and by au- tnorities ciea snowea to tne court that a new trial couia not De granted on the showing made by the defense; he was fol lowed by Senator Hastings, SHAMROCK MAST GOES (Continued from First Page.) the correspondent of the Associated Press, waa so sudden that I have not yet had time to realise the full extent of the dam age. I heard only a rapping aound forward and then the whole atructure wavered. While It waa still swaying I waa knocked down the hatchway and through the floor ing.

Nelll. the representative of Sir Thomas on board Shamrock I, at tributed the accident aolely to tha unsus pected weakness of tbe rigging acrewt. He did not think there waa any evidence of Insufficient strength ln tbe mast. Erin's doctor reported that the Injuries of tbe men were alight. In a aubsequent Interview with the cor respondent of the Associated Press Sir Thorn aa aald: "It la impossible yet to say bow long it will take te refit the boat.

Judging from the accounts of the accident he thought there was likely to be some harass ing delay. "It la hard to tell." be aald. "whether the accident shows anything more than a possible defect In material. The turn buckles may have contained a defect that l"uld not be known. The same thing might have happened to anyone. If the weather rigging gave first the mast cannot be blamed for going over." Much Importance Is placed on the fact that the wire rigging of Shamrock III stood the severe strain put upon It without ap parent Injury. The rigging was made In New Jersey and Is the same as that which Is now being set up on Reliance. MILITIA TO BALK BOOKIES Indiana Governor Determined to Prevent Pool Set Una; at Hammond.

Presi dent Roosevelt left Major Pitcher's camp at Fort Yellowstone this morning for Fort Norrls, where he will spend most of the remainder of his stay In the park. The geysers are in the neighborhood of Norrls. If he has time he also will visit the Falls of tbe Yellowstone. The president has decided that he cannot accept the wish of the labor unions to refrain from riding on the Union Pacific because of a strike on that line. His itinerary was arranged months ago, and much as he de sires to favor the union men, he cannot dis appoint thousands of people by changing his plans at this late day. No news has been received from tbe president since he left early this morning for Norrls. As the trail had been made passable In the worst places It Is supposed that he reached his destination safely. During the last two or three daya of his stay in the park the president will be Joined by Secretary Loeb and the other members of the party. . The plan for him to apend a day ln the Black Hills has been abandoned, owing to the Impoaslbillty of disarranging the pro gram as already arranged.

Mr. Wallace Indulged the time In paying personal compliments to Mr. Benson, whom he had known tor thirty years. Mr. Benson, who was in poor physical condition, concluded the speechmaklng, after which be was compelled to undergo a handshaking ordeal.
